This is a story about a detective as opposed to a detective story. Mathew Brown aka Augustus Cervantes discovers early in life that he has some very special skills. Skills that manifest in what many consider very odd personality traits. Most notably, he claims he can find anything with a little help from a nebulous place in his mind that he calls the canvas. ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿Having built a lucrative career finding treasured missing objects for wealthy patrons, he's contacted by a woman desperate to recover a meaningful family heirloom. This seemingly "impossible" task is just the kind of challenge for Cervantes' special skills. He accepts the case, referring to it as "The Mystery of the Lost Pocket Watch." Little does he know, he's also attracted the attention of a local crime syndicate with their own agenda associated with the missing time piece. As chaos ensues, intrigue multiplies when Cervantes discovers a clue to the whereabouts of the long-lost watch. The nature of the case and the others who are hot on his trail lead to a chase across Europe filled with murder and mayhem, and an outcome that, for the first time ever, he can't predict.

Take a journey with Anthony (A.D.) as he tells you his stories of love, lust, friendships, and failures with his most memorable partners. Each woman he meets introduces him to a whole new flavor of loving with a variety of personalities, careers, cultures, body types, experiences, and ethnicities. You'll share erotic encounters that are so hot and sexy, they'll take your breath away and curl your toes: the curvy chocolate vixen in the passenger seat; the sultry blonde on the pool table; a "fun-size" coworker who risks infidelity at home. With each adventure, Anthony invites you into his mind to share his perspective and opinions with you as the relationship evolves. He pushes the boundaries by letting you in on his candidly honest thoughts about self-awareness, stereotypes, games, deceit, and sexual attraction, including the things we all think about deep down but never say out loud. Anthony analyzes the strategies he and his partners use throughout the courtships, and reflects on the connections he makes with each partner and the subsequent chemistry, both intellectual and physical.Sexual encounters happen for many reasons, but the best is often when we share a meeting of the minds with an equally present partner. There should be growth from relationship to relationship; growth in the thought process, decision-making, and self-awareness.This book proves that there is always more to learn in the quest to achieve satisfaction from your head to your bed.

Fatherhood is about sacrifice, love, and more sacrifice. As fathers, we have to remember that we have the power to build and to destroy. The title "Daddy" is earned, and maintaining that title requires constant maintenance of parental relationships. Emotionally supporting our kids is the responsibility of both parents; however, this book primarily focuses on the unique role that a father plays in their children's lives. In chapters like "Love with Your Hands" and "Building to be Better" the author shares his personal experiences, observations, and learning lessons to help steer fathers down a productive and nurturing path of child rearing. Along the way, readers will begin to identify ideology in their parenting styles that may need updating or revamping. Each chapter will leave readers with new tools to implement on their journey. Portions of this book promote healing and courage to mend torn relationships as well. The author also applauds stepparents, and adopted parents who have stepped in and saved the day, emphasizing that fathers do not have to be biologically connected to excel in their role as a father. The challenge to acquire the Daddy title comes through sacrifice, love, and leadership. Accept the challenge!
