I’m not a fan of change. So, when I hear the old bar I work at a couple of nights a week has sold, I wonder if it’s time for me to give up that side gig. It’s not like I need the cash. My job as a full-time firefighter is more than enough to keep me comfortable and plenty busy.
Then I meet the new owner, my new boss, Lizzie Meyer.
She makes me a deal: give her thirty days. If I don’t like the direction she takes the place, I can quit. Simple, right? But nothing feels simple once I’m around her. I try to ignore the pull, but her easy smile, hypnotic green eyes, and that stubborn streak wrapped in determination makes it impossible. The line between professional and personal is clear…until it isn’t.
Just when something real starts to take shape between us, my past stirs—ready to drag its way back into the light and threaten everything we’re beginning to build together.

I’ve spent years dreaming of a place to call my own. Growing up inside the biggest bar and restaurant in my hometown, I learned early on what my calling was. But lately, I’ve wanted something more. Something that isn’t tied to my family’s legacy. I want to build my own.
That dream leads me to Cooper Town, Ohio, a quaint small town with an old bar for sale and enough possibility to make me pack up my life and take a chance.
I know it will take hard work to bring the place back to life, and I’ve got the drive, the grit, and a modest savings account to get started. What I’m not prepared for is Collin Miller, the brooding bartender with a rare, disarming smile and a work ethic that mirrors my own. He’s impossible to ignore, even harder to resist. I try to keep things strictly professional, really, I do, but being around him feels like standing too close to a flame.
My simple request is that he doesn’t break my heart along the way.

#BookBlitz: Overcome Addiction (Through Meditation Fasting & Stress Management) by #MajidAli @RABTBookTours




Self-Help

Date Published: December 17, 2025

 

 


 Overcome Addiction Through Meditation, Fasting and Stress Management offers a clear, grounded and deeply practical path for anyone determined to break free from a harmful addictive cycle. Instead of relying on willpower alone, this book guides you toward strengthening the mind, restoring balance to the brain, and reducing cravings at their source.

Addiction is not a fixed state - it is a challenge that can be overcome with the right tools. Here, you will learn how three simple, accessible practices, meditation, fasting and stress management, work together to rebalance the five key neurotransmitters disrupted by addiction: dopamine, serotonin, GABA, glutamate and norepinephrine. By restoring this balance, the brain becomes calmer, clearer and far more capable of resisting impulsive urges and compulsive cravings.

 

Through straightforward explanations and real-world examples, the book shows:

• Why meditation elevates dopamine, serotonin and GABA to reduce cravings and strengthen self-control

• How fasting lowers glutamate, quiets compulsive drives, and supports mental clarity

• Why unmanaged stress triggers relapse - and how simple daily habits can keep norepinephrine in check

• How changing your environment, your routines and even your mindset dramatically increases your chance of success

 

Find practical guidance on building consistency, overcoming setbacks, developing patience, and staying grounded during the recovery process. These tools are not harsh, complicated or costly - each one is easy to apply and becomes more powerful with repetition.

Whether you are struggling yourself or supporting someone on their journey, this book gives you an approach that is gentle, logical and evidence-based. By focusing on the process rather than the fear of relapse, you will develop the strength, clarity and balance needed to reclaim your life…

One peaceful, steady step at a time.

Book Cover
Synopsis:
Seven deadly—and ultrarich—sins rule NYC, and though she came here to escape her past, one woman’s true path to freedom might be the devil’s bonds in this scorching hot romantasy from Kait Ballenger.

The seven deadly sins keep high profiles in the Big Lust runs brothels, Sloth’s a media streamer…you get the picture. Pride, though, he’s more mysterious. You might know him as Lucifer—temptation irresistibly embodied. The paparazzi are dying for some burning-hot gossip. So when someone publishes my scathing but private rant about him, they eat it up. And now my job is on the line. After all, he is my boss.

With his vicious siblings vying for his power, Lucifer needs to distract the press, so he reframes my tirade as a lovers’ spat, demanding I play the devil’s fiancรฉe. I need to be a good girl, smile for the cameras, nothing more.

But cocky and cruel as he is, his darkness awakens something wicked in me. Sexy and in control, he might just be the cure—an extra dose of sin to heal me from a lifetime of shame and subservience.

And I like it.

The Legacy of a Lie unravels a web of family secrets when the past resurfaces, threatening everything its keepers tried to protect. At its center is Maarit McDonough Malone, a brilliant yet flawed budding opera singer whose scandalous choices ripple across generations.

Her daughters—Kay, a celebrated mezzo-soprano, and Anna, a self-doubting composer—must confront the emotional fallout of their mother’s long-buried lies. Alongside them are a young, truth-seeking journalist, a lawyer, and a priest, all carrying the weight of secrets they are professionally and morally bound to keep.

Set in the haunting beauty of Minnesota’s river bluffs and Lake Superior’s North Shore, this is a story of legacy and redemption—of truth breaking through the cracks of deception and healing in the wake of generations of silence.
