Dragon Mage
Summary
To unite a fractured kingdom, a reluctant hero must rise. Neill has been charged with the impossible task of bringing the Middle Kingdom together to fight the burgeoning threat posed by the rogue sorcerer Ansall and his dragon Zaxx. Neill longs for his old life as a mere foot soldier for his father, responsible only for his family’s well-being, and is unsure about whether he is fit to lead an army. Neill’s contemplative nature forces him to consider every aspect of the problems he faces, but often makes it difficult for him to take action - and failure to act could mean the deaths of many. Now, echoing Char and their dragon Paxala, his duty beckons him to lead the Dragon Riders and take his rightful place as king, but with doubt and new enemies creeping in, his resolve will be tested. When the mysterious Dark Prince arrives with an offer, Neill will have to make a decision that could change the course of history. As Ansall grows in strength by harnessing black magic, Neill must choose between his own desires and the welfare of the entire kingdom. Can he rise to the challenge before it’s too late?

Wardens of Wisteria
Summary
Zara Riddle is used to being woken up in the middle of the night by magical creatures. Being a witch is incredibly fun, but it does have a few drawbacks. Zara's powers make her appealing to the recently deceased, who are always showing up seeking her help. This witch is a real ghost magnet!

She greets the new spirit, locates the crime scene, and notifies the authorities. All before the sun comes up. Zara's work is done. After all, the town's detective should be able to solve this homicide without her. The detective, Theodore Bentley, has other ideas. He knows about Wisteria's secrets, but he's not the stubborn type who insists on doing everything himself. Why chase down a killer alone when you can have a powerful witch as a partner? He invites Zara to join him on the investigation. Zara accepts, because why not? She'll rest easier when the case is solved. Plus two heads are better than one, even if one of them is a mere human.

Conversations Worth Having
Summary
Conversation is a crucial part of everything we do. It influences our well being. A good conversation can leave us ready for anything, and a bad one can ruin our whole day. But most of us are unaware of the nature of our conversations, let alone how to make them consistently affirming and empowering. This audiobook teaches us how to use appreciative inquiry, one of the most effective and widely-used approaches for fostering positive change, to dramatically improve the outcomes of our conversations. By focusing on what we want to happen instead of what we want to avoid and asking questions to deepen understanding and increase possibilities, we expand creativity, improve productivity, and unleash potential, at work and home. “This book is for everyone, from managers striving to lead more effectively, to parents trying to cultivate better conversations with children.” - Lindsey Godwin, director of David L. Cooperrider Center for Appreciative Inquiry “Wow! What a great book! I'm going to use it in my courses and with every client. It is rare to read a book that is so compelling and practical with simple guidelines anyone can use.” - Gervase R. Bushe, professor at Simon Fraser University and author of Clear Leadership “A conversation is the smallest visible unit of change, our starting point for every important change effort. This book is a gift to the world, business, schools, and families!” - Jon Berghoff, president of Flourishing Leadership Institute “A must read for all leaders. Practical wisdom and relatable stories!” - Robert Easton, senior managing director at Accenture “This short book is a rare gem-entertaining, relevant, educational, and immensely practical!” Maureen McKenna, founder of Return on Energy This is a unique guide to changing our world of conversation.

The Genius of Opposites: How Introverts and Extroverts Achieve Extraordinary Results Together
Summary
FDR and Eleanor. Mick and Keith. Jobs and Woz. Siskel and Ebert. Sandberg and Zuckerberg. History is filled with many examples of successful introvert-extrovert partnerships. Opposites like these can make brilliant products and great works of art and can even change history. But great introvert-extrovert partnerships don't just happen. They demand wise nurturing. Without it they can implode. Jennifer Kahnweiler offers a five-step process that will enable introverts and extroverts to work together harmoniously and achieve more than they ever could on their own. The process can be precarious. The key, Kahnweiler says, is to remember that these relationships are most successful when opposites stop emphasizing their differences and use approaches that focus them both on moving toward results. This first-of-its-kind practical guide helps introverts and extroverts understand and appreciate each other's wiring, use their inevitable conflicts to spur creativity, find the right roles within the partnership, act like respectful friends, and mine their diversity to give clients the widest range of options. Blending their two points of view allows both partners to see and act on things neither would have separately. Partners can even enrich their skills by learning from their opposites. Kahnweiler shows you how to perform the delicate balancing act required to create a whole that is exponentially greater than the sum of its parts.

Wishful Wisteria
Summary
What goes around comes around, so be careful who you bite. It's September, which is a rainy month in Wisteria, and a storm is brewing. When a magic mechanic takes The Big Nap in a comfy chair at the library, suspicion turns to the local librarian witch. What has Zara Riddle done now? Poisoned the guy for talking too loud? She shrugs off the accusations, as usual, and tries to help with the investigation, also as usual. But this time around, the local vampire detective isn't swinging by Zara's house to take her along for the ride. He may be Zara's boyfriend after hours, but when it comes to solving crimes, he has a new partner. For Zara, dealing with "that girl" is like getting turned into a cat, then being petted backward, from tail to nose. It's just wrong! Worst of all, the town's new ghost is becoming an international celebrity, attracting outsiders and media attention. Once the library is overrun by a horde of ghost hunters, Zara and her coven attempt to resolve the haunting. Can the motley crew of witches actually cooperate in the face of imminent danger? Or will they succumb to dark forces? In the end, Zara will find herself caught in the middle of a battle she never expected, much less wanted. Friends turn to foes, and foes turn to frenemies in book 10 of the hit Wisteria Witches Mysteries series, Wishful Wisteria. Wishful Wisteria is book three in the Daybreak mini-series trilogy (Wardens of Wisteria, Wisteria Warned, Wishful Wisteria), and the 10th book set in the world of the Wisteria Witches Mysteries. The main character is Zara Riddle, and as of publication, it is the latest on the world's timeline!
