I’ve done everything right—built a career, climbed the corporate ladder, and put the family business first. But when my father tries to turn my love life into a merger deal, I realize it might be time to finally break a rule or two.

So I do something completely out of character: I run.

One impulsive flight, one sketchy boat rental, and one minor shipwreck later, I wash up off the coast of Maine only to be rescued by a grumpy (and unfairly attractive) harbormaster who thinks I’m a walking, talking disaster.

He’s rugged, grounded, infuriating, and annoyingly good at saving me.

I’m only here for the summer—just long enough to clear my head, avoid my father’s matchmaking schemes, and figure out what I want.

Falling for a man who navigates fog better than his own feelings? Not part of my plan.

But between lobster rolls, starry nights, and kisses I can’t stop thinking about, I start to wonder if I’m no longer escaping something... but finding something worth staying for.

Are we being told the truth—or are we living in an age of carefully crafted lies?

In Breaking Deceptions, Kirk Sassak, a mechanical engineer turned first-time author, delivers a powerful exposé on the modern media's role in distorting truth and reshaping national narratives. From COVID-19 misinformation and the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up to the media’s radically different treatment of the 2020 BLM riots and the January 6 Capitol riot, this book takes readers on a gripping journey through some of the most controversial events in recent American history.

With the structured mind of an engineer and the creative soul of a poet, Sassak dissects media narratives with precision and passion—shedding light on the rise of politically motivated journalism and its impact on democracy, freedom, and truth.


🛑 They lied to us about:

● Russian Collusion

● Charlottesville

● COVID Lab Leaks

● Hunter Biden's Laptop

● President Biden’s Mental Fitness

● And much more...


🔥 Whether you're politically left, right, or somewhere in between, Breaking Deceptions challenges you to confront the uncomfortable reality: a biased media is dangerous—no matter whose side they’re on.


Perfect For Readers Who:

● Are concerned about media bias, fake news, and propaganda

● Want to understand how misinformation influences political outcomes

● Appreciate investigative non-fiction that questions mainstream narratives

 

Seek a thought-provoking, politically charged read rooted in real events

You can't outrun your family curse.
I thought high school was hard enough. At least I had my BFF Andy by my side, and we'd be attending the same college in the fall. What started with a family reunion has turned into the adventure from hell.
I didn't ask for this. The prophecies. The magic. The obsession. The dragons. The warring deities. I just wanted to be a normal teenager. But because of who I am, the family I was born into, I've been caught up in a story that began centuries before I was born. It's up to me to break the family curse, and I will let no one, man nor god, stop me.

I have been in love with Shepard Thorne since I was twelve.
He’s my best friend’s hot older brother, and I am the weird redhead who low-key follows him everywhere. He’s soccer’s bad boy, and I am stuck in a dead end job, serving drinks at the local strip club.
Our paths aren’t meant to cross.
Until one day I catch him getting a lap dance at the club and jealousy makes me ruin his fun.
Now he’s made it his mission to make my life hell and no matter what I do, there is no escape.
Everywhere I turn, there he is, waiting for his payback.
He threatens to kiss me one second, and choke me the next.
He promises to bring me to my knees and make me beg.
What started as a little harmless prank turns into a twisted game of blackmail that’s toxic but oh-so-good.
But it has to end.
Because I have a secret...
That ties me to my tormentor in an irrevocable way, and if he ever finds out, it will wreck everything I now crave.
Even his revenge.

Note: This is a STANDALONE set in the world of Bardstown.
