A Western Historical Romance Book 5 in a Series of 5 With their problems behind them, Jake Talley and Clara Fuller can finally start planning for the future. Or so it seems. From behind the bars of his jail cell, their adversary still plots to destroy them and all they hold dear. A newcomer who appears to be above suspicion joins the team. Soon the love birds learn the hard way that when greed secretly taints innocence, no one wins. Edward Sinclair plays his last trump card to put an end to the rivalry once and for all. Will his plan work or will true love win once and for all? "What an awesome western romance book...from the beginning I was rooting for Jake and Clara against Edward Sinclair." In The Cowboy and the Rancher's Daughter Short Story Series, Clara Fuller inherits her father’s ranch and quickly learns being in charge is not going to be all that easy. Raised around cattle, she knows the business inside and out, but few men are willing to work for a lady rancher. Once a drifter, Jake Talley has finally found a place to call home. As the foreman of the Fuller Ranch, he doesn’t mind taking orders from a woman. He’s willing to do whatever it takes to help Clara Fuller succeed. Edward Sinclair is a successful ranch owner who wants more. He’s used to getting what he wants, and few have dared to try and stand in his way. One piece of property is all he needs to have complete control of the county. There’s only one problem; the land belongs to Clara Fuller. That’s all right; he’s never met a problem yet he couldn’t erase.

Dealing With Mental Illness Book 2:Stress and PTSD
Dealing With Mental Illness Book 2:Stress and PTSD
Rodney C. Cannon
¥8.09
Dealing With Mental Illness Book 2 contains two books about two of the most overlooked mental ailments. Most people believe that Stress is normal and cannot do any long term harm. Stress can kill you if you overlook it and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder can go undiagnosed for years. It can do damage to your body and finances in ways that you are totally unaware of. ?Dealing with Stress is perhaps the most important thing that you will ever do. Stress -Dealing with Stress will offer you a comprehensive overview of what stress is and how to deal with it both in terms of its effect biologically, chemically and emotionally. The thing about stress it that it is perhaps the number one cause of other mental illnesses such as Depression and PTSD. It can do tremendous damage to your physical health as well. Stress can lead to weight gain or serious weight loss. Stress can cause heart attacks and strokes. If you do not learn how to manage and to deal with stress it can kill you. The good news is that stress can be managed with medication, exercise and simple activates that you will be introduced to in my book Stress, Dealing With Stress. Dealing with Post Traumatic Stress There was a time not so long ago when someone suffered a great trauma or a tragic event the sufferer was expected to get over it. The idea that real and lasting damage had been done was dismissed. Soldiers who suffered from what was called battle fatigue were called cowards and those who did not quickly get over a lo ss or a serious trauma were considered weak. Since then we have learned to call this and so much more post-traumatic stress disorder, that mental injuries are as real as physical ones. In this book I hope to explore the common types of this disorder. How to recognize it in yourself and others and the road back from it. I suffered through many years of nightmares and flashbacks before discovering that this was not normal, that I was suffering from this ailment. I found a way to deal with my PTSD and hopefully you will too.

Long, long ago there lived a man called Sentaro. His surname meant "Millionaire," but although he was not so rich as all that, he was still very far removed from being poor. He had inherited a small fortune from his father and lived on this, spending his time carelessly, without any serious thoughts of work, till he was about thirty-two years of age.One day, without any reason whatsoever, the thought of death and sickness came to him. The idea of falling ill or dying made him very wretched."I should like to live," he said to himself, "till I am five or six hundred years old at least, free from all sickness. The ordinary span of a man's life is very short."He wondered whether it were possible, by living simply and frugally henceforth, to prolong his life as long as he wished.He knew there were many stories in ancient history of emperors who had lived a thousand years, and there was a Princess of Yamato, who, it was said, lived to the age of five hundred This was the latest story of a very long life record.
