Can a sister who's lived only for others find freedom with one man?Family has always come first-for both of them. He's never forgiven himself for letting her go. She's never forgiven herself for almost getting him killed. When Lark and her songbird sisters are separated fleeing their cruel and controlling troupe manager, only Brynmor Llewellyn can help Lark save her sisters and escape to the far west. But Lark wants more. And so does Brynmor. When they're stranded in a spot as difficult to guard as it is to leave-a rustic cabin at a train junction between Denver and the mountain town of Noelle, Colorado-they find themselves fighting not only for survival but for redemption, forgiveness, and a second chance for their love. Will the frontier train stop of Songbird Junction be Lark and Brynmor's salvation? Or their downfall when her manager, a con artist who calls himself her uncle but cherishes only his own fame and fortune-demands a debt no one can pay? A note about story links: A Bride for Brynmor is the first book in my Songbird Junction series. It includes characters (such as reader-favorite Grandpa Gus Peregrine) featured in my Noelle, Colorado, Christmas stories: The Calling Birds (set in 1876) and Robyn: A Christmas Bride (set in 1877). All of these stories are Western historical romances with a dash of mystery and a heap of adventure. SONGBIRD JUNCTION SERIESBook 1 - A Bride for BrynmorBook 2 - A Bride for Heddwyn>Welcome to Songbird Junction, where Welsh meets West in Colorado 1878. The journey to find a forever home and more starts here. Brynmor, Heddwyn, and Griffin Llewellyn are three Welsh brothers bound by blood and a passion for hauling freight-in Denver, where hard work pays. Lark, Oriole, and Wren are three Irish-Cree Métis sisters-of-the-heart bound by choice and a talent for singing-in any place that pays.
A simple, pragmatic, and honest appraisal of how the conditioning of your past, may have impacted your confidence. When we think about confidence or lack thereof, we focus on dealing with the symptoms rather than the cause. Focusing on the symptoms is like papering over the cracks or sticking plaster over an open wound. No one is born lacking confidence; we all come into this world with a growth mindset and constantly fail while we learn to walk and talk. So, what changes? Through her upbringing, personal experiences and research, Yvonne explores the great expectations put upon us and the conditioning you may have encountered that could have impacted your confidence. Yvonne then provides practical ways to recondition your thoughts, take back control and regain your confidence for good. Early Reviews"This book is excellent. The evidence presented in it is well-contextualised and easily translatable." Jamil Qureshi - TED-X and World Recognised Speaker, Performance Coach and Author of The Mind Coach "An easy read, and a great reference to carry around with you. Loved the use of characters to describe how we both help and hinder our progress, makes it easy to understand and to become more aware of our behaviours and where we want to direct our focus." Charlotte Graham-Cumming - CEO, Ice Blue Sky "As a first-time author, Yvonne must be commended on the way she has taken her personal experiences and lessons learned from her interactions with others, to deliver semi autobiographical perspective on how a persons journey through life can hardwire unintended behaviours that affect how they will engage with current and future opportunities in life." Colin Williams - Business Line CTO, Computacenter "This is a short, snappy book that gets straight to the point. I found the short sections easy to navigate and was prompted to think about the conditioning I've had, what impact it has on me now and the relevance to how I'm bringing up my own daughter." Rebecca Monk - Chief People Officer, Softcat Plc "I enjoyed reading Conditioning Kills Confidence! The characters of conditioning, caution, and confidence were so vividly drawn that I could relate them to real-life interactions making the book so relatable and impactful. The insights shared and reflection questions provided an opportunity to dig a little deeper and work on identifying our individual superpowers!"Jacquie Rives - Community Lead & Program Director, The Channel Company "As Yvonne would say, I had "Great Expectations" of this book, and it certainly did not disappoint. It's an excellent read, and I'd highly recommend it. "Conditioning Kills Confidence" is written in such a way that it takes a complex and emotive subject and breaks it down to be both manageable and relatable, whilst also providing some concrete steps to help the reader take positive action. I saw myself in much of the material, and I also saw a development path that the book helped me to identify. I believe that this book will be of genuine value in my personal and professional journey." - Anthony Tripyear - Director, StarTech.com "Yvonne wonderfully brings to life that niggling feeling you have always had but could never quite articulate. She gives you the "why" to every time you have held yourself back, not taken that leap or not said what you really wanted to say. By helping you understand this, she also helps you free yourself from this conditioning, step into who you really are, believe in your uniqueness and own your own strength." - Leah Russell - Alliance Director

Like Erik the Red, the great Viking warrior. Erik's mother had given birth in her home. No one to help her. The father was across the sea, fighting in the Great War. She didn't know how long it would be before the soldier would meet his son. Or that he wouldever have the chance. Over the next few weeks, Erik's mother welcomed the cries of a newborn baby. The silence of the house over the last few months had nearly driven her mad. All she had to keep her mildly sane was a small green book she had since she was a child. It was full of old Irish folk tales and mythology. She soon began to introduce her newborn child to the wonderful world she had partially lived in most of her life: the world of Fae.

An acclaimed science journalist's extraordinary seven-year investigation into how the U.S. oil and gas industry has avoided environmental regulations and created a dangerous and radioactive public health crisis.As Justin Nobel traveled the United States reporting on the oil and gas industry, he learned a disturbing and little-considered fact: a lot more comes to the surface at a well than just the oil and gas. Each year the industry produces billions of tons of waste, much of it toxic and radioactive. The fracking boom has only worsened the problem. So where does it all go?Petroleum-238 provides the shocking answer. Shielded by a system of lax regulations and legal loopholes, this waste has been spilled, spread, injected, dumped, and freely emitted across America. Nobel relies on oilfield workers, community activists, a century of academic research, and a trove of never-before released industry and government documents to lay out a series of game-changing reveals into the world's most powerful industry. None have been more deceived than the industry's own workers, who are suffering mysterious health maladies and dying from unexplainable cancers.This book is an impressive work of investigative science journalism with surprising moments of literary beauty, and a welcome breakdown of the false wall corporations and politicians often set between industry workers and environmentalists. In the tradition of Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Petroleum-238 is both a landmark work of environmental writing and an urgent call to action.*Cover design by Sabrina Bedford.
