Her ring belongs to the most dangerous man in town... but her heart belongs to a mountain man who's ready to fight for her…

I've always known Charlotte was off-limits. She's my best friend's daughter. The one woman I can't have. But when I find her stranded in a storm, I can't stop myself. One night together, and I break every rule. I said it wouldn't happen again. I lied. I'll do whatever it takes to make her mine. And no one, not even her dad, is going to stop me.

Adam’s identity IRL has been outed, and while he managed to stave off Levon’s initial assault, he can’t stay in New York City. He needs to leave before even more danger comes his way. The only place he can travel to is a city where the Pleonexia Alliance doesn’t have any power—Los Angeles, home to Daggerfall Dynasty.

It's finally happened. The one month grace period has expired, and Levon has declared a Guild War on Fayte's guild. Can Destiny's Overture defeat the Pleonexia Alliance? Can a guild of just seven win against a guild of several hundred thousand? Well, Adam has a few tricks up his sleeve, and they might be enough to guarantee victory. And yet the Guild War against the Pleonexia Alliance is not the only problem they are facing. Kidnappings, midnight assaults, and a dwelling of mystical creatures living deep beneath the Suncrest Mountain await Adam and his companions.

There was a time when everyone knew what a real man was. Now, with changing times, values, and roles, many men struggle with what it means to be a "real man" in the 21st century. What does a real man look like? How does he act? What are his values and morals? What role does a real man play in society? The 12 commitments that Chris and Larry share cover the gamut of life, from family, including your spouse and children, work, health, finances, service, and friendships. This little book will cause you to think about what kind of man you are and what kind of man you can become.

GAME ON! The time has come for Fayte to create a guild—the first one in Age of Gods. But creating a guild is a lot easier said than done, especially when the place Fayte wants to create hers is the most dangerous location currently within the game. Stampede. The term refers to an event that happens when humans leave the city and a horde of monsters gathers to attack them. It’s guaranteed to happen while their sect is being built, which means it is up to Adam, Aris, Fayte, Kureha, Lilith, Susan, and Titania to defend the construction workers while they build it.

Aris has come out of cryosleep. She begins her rehabilitation IRL and also begins playing Age of Gods. While she is leveling up to leave the Village of Beginnings, Adam and his party enter the ruins of a magic academy destroyed in ages past. Their goal is to find a hidden class for Fayte.

Ever since the signing of the World War III Armistice, the virtual world has become even more important than the real world. Adam does not care for the virtual world. His only concern is curing his terminally ill lover, but with Aris on the verge of death, he is running out of both time and hope.

Adam is the first person to reach level 10 and leave the Village of Beginnings, but before he can even reach the Sun Continent, the vessel he’s on is attacked by pirates!

We're made to look passive, dissociated, and defeated. If we're not pot-bellied beer drinkers or egoistic morons, no one wants to watch the broadcast. What happened to John Wayne, Matt Dillon, and G.I. Joe? Men who knew their strengths, understood their roles, believed in hard-nosed Christian values. Well, they're not dead; in fact, they're alive and well buried inside each one of us, waiting to emerge like the heroes they are. All they need is a reminder of what our God-given nature is. It's time for us to go back to the very beginning and dissect exactly who we are as men.

Acknowledging Christ in 1993 was a decision that at the time I believed that I did on my own, for myself, but nothing could have been farther from the truth. It is and was the awesome love of God that drew me into awareness of the need, but it was the foundation of love that prepared me for his grace.
