The “Presidency” has developed into the most powerful institution in the world. These individuals can start and end wars, grow or destroy economies, leave their countries in a better or worse place. The impact of political leadership is felt more acutely in countries that are still developing. This is particularly true across Africa where political leaders are a strong determinant of a country’s sustainable growth trajectory, or lack thereof.
This book offers a rare opportunity to pull back the curtains on political leadership in Africa and hear first hand the real-life political leadership experiences of individuals who were Heads of States in Africa.
Through their face-to-face interviews with the author, we learn how political leadership is a result of all their lived experiences that began early in their life to form and influence their behaviors, worldviews, responses, routines and knowledge. Equally important we see that what sets apart those leaders that left their countries in a better state than when they first took office is their awareness of their people and country’s needs, their own character and the gravitas of the office; the breadth of education and experiences they bring to the office of Head of State; as well as a clarity of focus and objectives, including when to step aside.
Building on these firsthand accounts of political leadership and the work of French sociologist Bourdieu, a new framework through which to view and discuss political leadership across Africa is offered. The “Habitus: Leading from Life” framework captures how everything in their lives prepared them for their role and effectiveness (or lack of) as Heads of State.

I just kissed my dad's best friend....

A life long crush can make a girl do some wild things.
I ran into Nathaniel at my parent's party.

KNOCK. KNOCK.
In walks Nathaniel with a stern gaze...

"You mean this?" I come close to his luscious lips and pause.
Then we finally kiss.
I took my chances in the bathroom that fateful night.
But NOTHING could prepare me for the greatest Christmas surprise.

Heat up your holiday nights with three (three!) Christmas romances featuring sexy men in blue. These top cops will bring a little steam and a lot of sweetness into your holiday season. Follow their journeys as they find their forever loves with the help of a reluctant guardian angel sent from above to aid them in moving past their own stubbornness and see the Christmas light, so to speak.
All I Want for Christmas
Logan is placed on light duty as he recovers from a gunshot wound following a S.W.A.T. call gone bad. He expected his light duty assignment to focus on developing future training for his S.W.A.T. team, not helping plan a party with the mayor’s assistant who drives him crazy just as equally as his pull to kiss the daylights out of her. Will he be able to manage this assignment with his growing desire for the beautiful and talented woman who loves Christmas as much as she adores giving him a hard time?
Reindeer Games
Connor blew his chance at a budding romance with Ivy, a local coffee shop owner, when he stood her up at a Christmas tree lighting because of a police call that required him to work deep into the night. Ivy didn’t want to hear his excuses and, instead, focused her energy on growing her Christmas-themed coffee shop and boutique. Connor has no plans of letting her avoid a date re-do. He just needs to convince Ivy she cares for him as deeply as she loves his K-9 partner.
Bah Humbug Blues
Noah is the top detective of the Rock Creek Police Department. He has no time or need to engage in the holidays. Presents, decorating and cheesy music have no place in his life, but it’s seeping into his world—literally. His gorgeous, raven-haired neighbor is consumed by Christmas and feels compelled to help Noah find his holiday spark. He has no intention of finding any kind of spark unless it involves his busy body neighbor, Holly, beneath him for a fun romp that has nothing to do with the Christmas season and everything to do with their growing attraction to one another.
You’ll cheer for Sarge, the no-nonsense former police officer and current angel, sent to help the police officers who’ve met their match with the sassy women in their lives.
Blue Christmas contains three short reads that guarantee a holiday happily ever after with steam and zero cheating.

Korean adoptee Emma Ricci has big plans. A graduate of New York's Fashion Institute of Technology, Emma dreams of starting her own fashion line and marrying her boyfriend, Adam. For now, she waits tables in a Korea Town restaurant.
When two masters of Chinese mysticism tell Emma she's the last in a long line of demon hunters, she assumes she's met two of New York City's crazier inhabitants. Her opinion changes quickly when she and Adam are targeted by wendigos, flesh-eating Native American demons. Emma survives the attack. Adam doesn't.
With the help of Chinese masters Li Bai and Zhan Ziquian, Emma discovers her heritage and past lives as a demon slayer. She also comes to the attention of Anthony DeAngelo, the NYPD detective assigned to the wendigo killings. DeAngelo obviously finds Emma attractive, but isn't going to let his feelings interfere with his investigation.
As demonic activity increases, it becomes apparent someone—or something—plans to open a hell-gate in Lower Manhattan. Emma's the only one capable of closing the door to the demon realm. Unfortunately, closing a gate kills the demon slayer.
Starting her own fashion line is beginning to look real unlikely…

It was called Jade Dragon…
…and it threatened to destroy the West.
Was an attack on the U.S. imminent?
In a lab deep in the heart of China, a brilliant engineer had a breakthrough. It was the most powerful AI ever created. Ma Young believed the Jade Dragon could solve the world’s most dire challenges. There was just one problem…
The president of China had other ideas.
Was this their chance to conquer?
The war began at the speed of light. The entire NATO alliance stood on the brink of destruction. Cyber-attacks, deepfakes, and a wave of social media disinformation wrought fear and desperation across the globe.
The sleeping giant was awake.
Could Ma stop his creation?
You’ll love this fast-paced techno-military-thriller because we live in a world where this fiction could be truer than we suspect. It will keep you turning the pages.
Get it now.
The Monroe Doctrine series is broken down into seven volumes. Each volume steadily reveals the complexity of Jade Dragon as humanity steadily moves towards autonomous warfare, waged by machines. This is NOT a standalone book.
