Andrew Wilden has never known anything outside the glow of a screen. Raised in his family’s video store, his entire education was stitched together from VHS tapes, matinees, and DVD menus. But when his mother disappears and his father collapses into illness, Andrew is thrust into the one setting he’s never prepared for: the real world. Terrified but determined, he leans on his love of movies to win friends, outwit bullies, and charm a girl who has never seen a single film he lives by. But what happens when the lines run out? When the reel and the real no longer match? Brimming with 80s nostalgia, humor, and heart, The Reel Life of Andrew Wilden is a coming-of-age tale about love, belonging, and the courage to stop quoting other people’s lines—and start writing your own.

A grounded, globe-spanning espionage thriller set in Morocco and Europe, following a legendary CIA Chief of Station whose final posting becomes a race to stop a royal assassination—and avert international fallout.When a coded transmission crosses three continents—Northern Ireland, Spain, and Morocco—America’s intelligence network stirs awake. At first, it looks like routine chatter. Then someone mentions Oujda. Fred “Fat Freddie” Ward, the CIA’s legendary Chief of Station in Morocco, has seen everything in his twenty-nine years of fieldwork. But this time, the signals don’t add up. As fragments of an international conspiracy surface—assassins for hire, encrypted calls, and whispers of a plot reaching into royal circles—Ward must race to piece together the truth before it detonates into global chaos. From Langley to London, Rabat to Madrid, alliances are tested and loyalties blurred. Every message hides a secret, and every operative knows too much. Taut, authentic, and relentlessly fast-paced, The Fat Man’s Watch propels readers through the shadow world of modern espionage—where the question isn’t who fired the shot, but who paid for the bullet.

A heartfelt midlife fitness memoir that empowers women 35–65 to rediscover strength, confidence, and possibility through one woman’s unexpected journey from sedentary mom to determined runner.Couch Potato Mom Becomes a Marathon Finisher, Proving It’s Never Too Late to Change Your Life. At 46, Hildee Weiss had perfected the art of putting herself last. A devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, she moved through life feeling worn down, invisible, and convinced that transformation belonged to other people—thinner people, younger people, braver people. Then one ordinary day, she asked herself a question that would rewrite everything she believed about who she could become: What if I tried? Embracing My Inner Athlete is the unfiltered, deeply inspiring memoir of a self-described couch potato who dared to take her first shaky steps toward health, confidence, and joy—steps that would eventually carry her across 5Ks, 10Ks, five half marathons, Spartan obstacles, and challenges she once believed were reserved only for “real” athletes. With vulnerable honesty, humor, and hard-won wisdom, Hildee reveals the fears, failures, friendships, and fierce determination that shaped her midlife awakening. More than a running story, this is a testament to second chances and the quiet, radical act of choosing yourself. For every woman who has ever felt stuck, sidelined, or “too late” to begin, Hildee’s journey offers one powerful truth: You’re stronger than you think — and your next chapter can start with a single step.

For fans of inspirational memoirs, a powerful journey of resilience and rediscovery in the world of soccer, set against the backdrop of personal tragedy, for readers seeking hope and motivation. When rising college soccer coach Scott Martin was struck down by a rare, flesh-eating infection that took both hands and parts of his feet, doctors told him he was lucky to survive. But survival wasn’t enough. Overnight, the man who lived for the game had to relearn how to move, teach, and live—without the very tools that once defined him. From hospital beds and courtroom battles to the touchline of a dusty youth-league field, Martin’s twenty-five-year journey is one of heartbreak and rebirth. He rebuilt his body, lost—and found—his purpose, and when everything seemed over again, rediscovered his passion by leading a ragtag team of twelve-year-olds to an undefeated state championship. Told with unflinching honesty and humor, Play From Your Heart is a memoir about endurance, grace, and the power of sport to heal what medicine cannot. For anyone who’s ever faced the unthinkable and still chosen to stand back up, this story proves that the human spirit—like the game itself—can never be defeated.

An intimate political memoir set in Washington, D.C. and Hyannisport during the turbulent 1960s, offering history readers and Kennedy enthusiasts a rare first-person portrait of Robert F. Kennedy through the eyes of a young Senate staffer navigating ambition, power, and personal awakening.“With First Great Sorrow, author Donna Chaffee has produced an inspiring tribute to a man for whom she worked and campaigned—Robert F. Kennedy. Her book is filled with fascinating, inside details of RFK’s career and how he inspired those who knew him. An intimate portrait about a time when anything seemed possible. Oh, what might have been.” ~ Ray E. Boomhower, author of Robert F. Kennedy and the 1968 Indiana Primary “Through fresh eyes, Donna reminds us why Bobby Kennedy was just the right man for his times and remains an inspiration for ours.” ~ Larry Tye, New York Times bestselling author of Bobby Kennedy: The Making of a Liberal Icon “This is a lovely memoir by Donna Chaffee, who, as a young woman still in college, accepted a job on the Senate staff of Robert F. Kennedy. She writes with deep respect and insight about the empathy and authenticity of her boss, with whom, truth be told, she was at least a little bit in love. This is not a tell-all book—far from it. It is a story told with accessibility and heart about a singular politician from the 1960s whose concern for people on the margins of American life made him, some of us believe, the greatest Kennedy of them all.” ~ Frye Gaillard, author of A Hard Rain: America in the 1960s In First Great Sorrow: My Years with Robert F. Kennedy, Donna Chaffee offers a rare and intimate portrait of one of America’s most legendary political figures — told not by a historian, but by someone who knew him personally. In 1965, at just eighteen years old, Chaffee joined Robert F. Kennedy’s Senate staff in Washington, D.C. Over the next three turbulent years, she witnessed history from inside the halls of power during the civil rights movement, the Vietnam era, and the political upheaval that defined a generation. But history is only part of the story. Through private conversations, evening rides home from the Capitol, and unforgettable moments inside the Kennedy world—from Hyannisport summers to campaign trail chaos—Chaffee reveals the deeply human side of the man millions admired but few truly knew. At the same time, she chronicles her own coming-of-age in 1960s America—navigating ambition, admiration, trauma, and the emotional shock of a nation shattered by tragedy. Rich with never-before-shared stories, vivid historical detail, and powerful personal reflection, First Great Sorrow is a moving memoir about power, loss, and the complicated humanity behind political legend. For readers fascinated by the Kennedys, the 1960s, and the people who stood just outside history’s spotlight, this unforgettable memoir offers a perspective never told before.
