Bro Code

 There’s pretty much only one rule when you’re a guy.
 

Don’t be a douche.
 

Turns out, the fastest way to break that rule is to fall for your best friend’s sister.
 

Ava’s brilliant, sharp-tongued, gorgeous, and five years younger than me.
 

She’s the sexual equivalent of running with scissors. In a word, she’s dangerous. And completely off-limits.
 

Falling for her could ruin everything.
 

Yet I can’t seem to stop, even when her company is threatened by a lawsuit, and my promotion hinges on representing the opposing client-and winning.
 

I can’t see a way out of this mess that doesn’t end in a broken friendship, a broken heart, or a ruined career.
 

I may have broken the bro code when I fell for Ava. But do I have the balls to handle what comes next?

The Inspiration Code: How the Best Leaders Energize People Every Day

Great leaders inspire action with their words. They spark enthusiasm and commitment. With a single conversation, they can change the direction of someone’s life.

Everyone wants to be the kind of leader who energizes and mobilizes others – yet too few are. Why is it so challenging to crack the code?

Executive coach Kristi Hedges spent years studying exactly what inspiring leaders do differently. Informed by quantitative research and thousands of responses from leaders at all levels, she reveals that inspiring communication isn’t about grand gestures. Instead, those who motivate us most do a few things routinely, consistently, and intentionally. Inspirational people are:

PRESENT: investing their full attention and letting conversations flow
PERSONAL: speaking genuinely, listening generously, and acknowledging the potential of those around them
PASSIONATE: exhibiting sincere emotion and exuding energy attuned to the situation
PURPOSEFUL: helping others find meaning and see their place in the bigger picture

Eye-opening and accessible, The Inspiration Code dispels common myths about how leaders communicate – and guides them in cultivating qualities that authentically excite.

Inspired companies need inspirational leaders. Learn to unlock motivation, lift peoples’ sights, and lead them into the future.

The Diabetes Code: Prevent and Reverse Type 2 Diabetes Naturally

From acclaimed author Dr. Jason Fung, a revolutionary guide to reversing diabetes.

Dr. Jason Fung forever changed the way we think about obesity with his best-selling book, The Obesity Code. Now he has set out to do the same for type 2 diabetes.

Today, most doctors, dietitians, and even diabetes specialists consider type 2 diabetes to be a chronic and progressive disease – a life sentence with no possibility of parole. But the truth, as Dr. Fung reveals in this paradigm-shifting book, is that type 2 diabetes is reversible. Writing with clear, persuasive language, he explains why conventional treatments that rely on insulin or other blood-glucose-lowering drugs can actually exacerbate the problem, leading to significant weight gain and even heart disease. The only way to treat type 2 diabetes effectively, he argues, is proper dieting and intermittent fasting – not medication.

The Lone Wolf Tycoon: A Guide for Introverts to Crack the Code of Wealth

Being an introvert does not mean one is shy, socially awkward, or lacking in confidence. Being an introvert simply means you recharge from solitude rather than social situations. Often it is a sign of intelligence. Answer these quick questions to see if you are an introvert:

Do you enjoy small talk? Most introverts find small talk uncomfortable.

Do you often feel alone in a crowd? Many introverts feel alone, even when they are among a group of friends.

Are you easily distracted? Introverts tend to be easily distracted in environments of excess stimulation.

Are you in a relationship with, or find yourself surrounding yourself with extroverts? This is a common characteristic of the introvert. Opposites attract!

Does downtime make you feel more productive? Introverts need time alone to process information and recharge.

Is it easier for you to speak in front of large crowds than to speak to small groups of people or individuals? Most introverts are comfortable with public speaking, but mingling with the crowd afterward and making small talk is often tedious to them.

Do you start to shut down after you have been out and about for too long? Being out in public causes the introvert to expend a lot of energy. After a while they start to shut down and need solitude.

Do you have a constant inner dialogue? Introverts tend to subconsciously and consciously think continually. Introverts think first and talk later.

Do you see the big picture? Introverts have excellent observational skills and tend to look at the big picture and have a mind for more abstract concepts.

If you think you may be an introvert and are seeking greater financial success, listen to this book! It is the ultimate guide book for the introvert with an entrepreneurial spirit. It is filled with excellent advice, relevant examples, checklists and self-analysis tools to help today’s introvert crack the code to wealth.

Forging Hephaestus (Villains’ Code)

Gifted with metahuman powers in a world full of capes and villains, Tori Rivas kept away from the limelight, preferring to work as a thief in the shadows. But when she’s captured trying to rob a vault that belongs to a secret guild of villains, she’s offered a hard choice: prove she has what it takes to join them or be eliminated. Apprenticed to one of the world’s most powerful (and supposedly dead) villains, she is thrust into a strange world where the lines that divide superheroes and criminals are more complex than they seem. The education of a villain is not an easy one, and Tori will have to learn quickly if she wants to survive. On top of the peril she faces from her own teacher, there are also the capes and fellow apprentices to worry about, to say nothing of having to keep up a civilian cover. Most dangerous of all, though, are those who loathe the guild’s very existence. Old grudges mean some are willing to go to any length to see the guild turned to ash, along with each one of its members. Even the lowly apprentices.
