Eighty-six year old Duff Gillies didn't want to die without telling the story of what he'd witnessed during the great ice tsunami that devastated Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia back in 2026.

After an unsettling polar bear encounter out on the ice, Duff thought he'd seen everything. Then three ice-covered waves turned his quiet maritime existence upside down. Called on to help a good friend rescue his brother, he and Izzy witnessed first-hand the devastating toll the tsunami had taken. But Duff had an experience no one else did and it came to haunt him. This fictional first-person account of the greatest tsunami disaster ever to hit a North American shore is a story you won't want to miss. It's a short novel that will leave you astonished at the destructive power of a tsunami when it collides with sea ice cover.

The astounding statistic shows that most marriages are on their decline after the first year or two. It is said that fifty percent of marriages end in divorce due to financial problems. According to a 2004 study by Smart Money Magazine, the top six money arguments that couples have are about: -Merging their money -Dealing with debt -Budgeting -How to best invest -Money secrets -Planning for emergencies -Selfishness This book is designed to help bring clarity to your relationship with money. Your financial condition goes much deeper than your pocket or what is in your bank account. Instead, there is a direct correlation to your financial, mental, and spiritual condition. The way you think about money is your money blueprint and this will determine the value you place on it and how you use it. Your relationship with money will be more meaningful and abundant when you can communicate effectively regarding how to allocate your resources. When a couple shares the same attitude toward money, their relationship tends to thrive. If a penny-pincher pairs up with a spendthrift, however, it could be a match made in hell. What is your money blueprint?

The attempted assassination of the first female president of the United States during her inauguration speech in 2024 leads to a revolution. Fifty years later, Matriarchy follows Althea Hayworth and Michael Nolan's journey to understanding the ways in which their matriarchal society has demonized heterosexuality and male-female interactions, ousted men from all positions of political power, and made men into second-class citizens. As Althea learns the untold history of the world from Michael, she questions whether the matriarchy is the utopia that she has been taught to believe it is and if marrying Felicity, her fiancée, is the best decision. As she struggles with her choices, she grapples with a group of men's rights activists fighting for their rights, a tyrannical mother who refuses to tolerate her daughter's newfound voice, and a court case that leaves her and Michael wrestling with a justice system that assumes the guilt of any man who walks into it.
