Cold Case No. 99-5219
For a decade, Dr. Caleb Young, a gifted physicist and chief science officer for the CIA, had shaded National Intelligence Estimates and Rand reports on war gaming. He wanted to thwart the US military’s push for a nuclear first strike. Soviet GRU Colonel Oleg Penkovsky had passed information to Young at more than one Pugwash Peace Conference, revealing how inept Soviet capabilities were. A US preemptive strike would destroy the earth’s ozone layer. Dr. Young, secretly an Einstein schooled pacifist, felt a personal obligation to prevent a globally destructive nuclear war. However, the realities of US nuclear superiority were progressively becoming harder to manage. By mid-1953, the United States had 1,169 deliverable atomic bombs. It could drop them with 160 B-36 heavy bombers and 350 B-47 medium bombers. The Soviet Union had 120 atomic bombs that could only be delivered to the US by a handful of one-way TU-4A experimental bombers through thousands of F-86 Sabres. By 1962, the US had more than 3,000 thermonuclear warheads and 5,000 tactical nuclear weapons. U-2 flights and Corona satellite images were exposing Khrushchev’s lies about “grinding out missiles like sausages.” The US had a 17-1 advantage in deliverable warheads.

Snowbound Squeeze
A SPECIAL PONDEROSA RESORT NOVELLA! Rule one when seeking a secret mountain hideaway: Be certain the cabin’s unoccupied. Also, make sure there’s no blizzard coming. I’ve screwed up all of that before I get the key in the door, which shouldn’t be a shock. God knows I’ve messed up plenty of things lately. Is it too much to want a hideout from Hollywood headlines in a place no one knows my name? Maybe not, since Gretchen Laslo has zero clue who I am. That’s the upside of being snowed-in with a stunning professor whose impressive list of appliances includes two ice cream makers and no television. The downside? Cocoa and blanket forts lead to toe-curling sex, which leads to me kinda-sorta forgetting to tell her the paparazzi’s on my tail. It’s a matter of time before she finds out. When that happens, our wintry romance will melt faster than a snowman boning in a sauna.

His Shifter Wolf Boss
My clan of wolf shifters wanted me dead for being born a girl… but I didn’t just survive but also met someone that felt like family. That someone was a boy in the orphanage I grew up in. I never could have imagined that I’d meet Derek again. His innocent eyes had a lot of pain in them after all those years. Perhaps that was the reason I didn’t recognize him at first. It didn’t matter what my heart felt for him. I had to keep myself from Derek… at all costs. There was no way he could find out my real identity. Derek was human, and I was not. That was the only fact I needed to remember, especially now that I had hired him as my employee. But the heart never listens to reason. One single night changed everything. The bad boy that I’d been in love with was hiding a secret of his own. And he was the only one that could make my body shiver with pleasure.

His Shifter Wolf Boss
Experience the Tumult of the World’s Final Epoch
Echoing through the corridors of time are whispers that crescendo into an ear-piercing cry foretelling the Apocalypse Unveiled: The Last Three Days. Immerse yourself in a gripping narrative that skirts the edges of reality, where the forbearance of humanity and the fabric of society fray and snap under the weight of celestial chaos. Begin your journey at the precipice of the end as you traverse through the precursors of doom–historical patterns, prophecies, and unavoidable cosmic signals.
Feel the unsettling quiet of Day 1 that fades into a night of unnatural stillness. Skies speak in cryptic hues, and a collective disquiet seeds terror in the hearts of all. With each turn of the page, the inevitable decay of civilization gains momentum; financial pillars crumble, and what once was order succumbs to madness. The Day 2 descends–a cavalcade of natural disasters and humanity scrambling amidst the rubble of its former grandeur.
Amidst the shadows of desperation, there is an unexpected glimmer. Chapter 5 captures the indomitable spirit of our species, with tales of valor and unity that ignite a flame of hope. Yet, the twilight of Day 3 looms large: will salvation be found in the pursuit of sanctity, or will humanity tread the path to damnation? This is the hour of decision, where miracles contend with malevolence, and new mythologies are inked in the annals of history.
Delve deeper, as every chapter unfurls scenarios both mystifying and profound. Witness the potential interventions–be they divine, extraterrestrial, or mere coincidence–as humanity faces the stark realities of a world remade. Relics of ruin or the foundation for rebirth: what legacy will the last days inscribe upon the earth? Through the pages of this chronicle, you will venture through harrowing darkness towards a dawn that might signal a new day’s rise–or eternal night.

Leadership in Two Steps
Welcome to your leadership toolbelt! In most, if not every, professional development course, the facilitator says something along the lines of “Here’s another tool for your toolbelt.” I’m not sure about you, but have gained all these “tools,” but never got the toolbelt. Did I miss being issued the toolbelt? When was that class? After years of leading at various levels, studying leadership, teaching & coaching others to enhance their leadership capacity, and through my own experiences (both successes and failures), I identified commonalities in leadership concepts. I reached the conclusion that most, if not all, of the concepts are built, or enhanced by, the foundations found in my new leadership approach: Leadership in Two Steps. Once I realized that this is the toolbelt to hang all our other tools on, I knew I had to share it with you!
