Early Reviews for this book

 

“In this touching and direct personal narrative, the reader accompanies Mieke and Eva on a transformational journey through geographical spaces of the Cathar country and back in time to revisit ancient resonances of spiritual truth that can be reborn in our time as a new awareness of the sacred, and especially of the key role of Mary Magdalene in early Christianity. It is an inspiring message of love for our time and a reminder of our perennial quest for wisdom and understanding.”

David Lorimer, author and editor, paradigm explorer and programme director, Scientific and Medical Network, France

 

“This book is a beautiful, very pure account of a special journey with Mieke and her daughter Eva. Reading it took me to deeper layers of myself and the environment I live in, Cathar country, to layers that I somewhere knew existed, but that could now come to the surface and are oh, so precious. Through reading Mieke’s book I’ve been able to make an even deeper connection to the Christ-consciousness and inner guidance, for which I’m deeply grateful. Our cooperation has been a real gift.”

Marianne van Mierlo, Dutch to English translator, France

 

“Mieke has been guided from deep within her soul to share her sacred journey through ‘A Journey to Love’. The beauty of her spirit shines through her sacred sharing and is taking us into higher dimensions from within a place of light. The magic of this book is that it opens up the reader to experience the mystical journey of the ancient power of Mary Magdalene and Jesus and the Beloved union of their souls that calls us home to love, in these modern times of uncertainty. As all mystical teachings, this book helps you to discover the true power of the Holy Grail and the holy source of Divine forces awakening within your heart. Prepare for a journey to love without limits and a lif- transforming experience.”

Judith K. Moore, Oracle of the Records of Creation, United Kingdom

 

 

About the Author

Mieke Vulink has devoted her life to the esoteric, mystical and sacred knowledge and initiation pathways. It is her passion to help other people become conscious of their own Divinity and to support the desire to connect with the Divine. She is a therapist and teacher in transformation and self-realisation; a teacher of essential healing; consciousness coach; a clairsentient medium; author; lightworker; and musician.

Mieke Vulink was born in 1962 in the Netherlands. As a highly-sensitive child, the piano was a perfect instrument for Mieke to express her feelings and inner knowledge of harmony and sound. Her first earthly career was in music, as a concert pianist, piano teacher and composer. During Music Highschool, she discovered another interesting world of: sound healing; spirituality; esoterism; mysticism; and the inner path of awakening to our Divine essence.

It became her passion to make conscious and tangible what can be changed and healed on everyone's journey to higher layers of consciousness. As a result of her own inner work, and the fine-tuning of her sensitivity, intuition and clairsentience, her connections with ascended masters and higher dimensions became stronger. Becoming more conscious of the illusions and duality we are living in, she discovered that she could heal the fears she carried inside from many lifetimes in which we all suffered, were manipulated and destroyed as human beings and as a result lost our connection with our inner Source/God.

For the past 15 years she has dedicated her life to the inner guidance from her connection with Source, knowing that self-healing from everyone's own Source can be realised. With this guidance came the callings to special, sacred places on Earth and after the first journey to the south of France her first book was born!

Mieke has been working for 35 years as a: guide for self-realisation and transformation; therapist; healer; teacher of essential healing; coaching conscious medium; and as a Lightworker.

Whimsical adventures of a young trickster: from clever exploits to a god-given mission.


The stone marten, in pursuit of the sun, climbs to the very Heavens and causes quite a commotion. Both the stubborn gods and the ordinary people have a hard time when weredemons break free. Even the Lord of the Underworld turns out to be powerless.

          But sometimes even a mouse can be stronger than an elephant, as the old proverb says. The fate of the world ends up in the hands of Takuan — a young trickster, who deceives the greedy, angry, and ignorant people across the country of Chinayindu. On his journey, he meets the wandering warrior Zhu Leizu, a temple monk named Soliang, the clumsy sorcerer Bricabrac, and many others.

          Our story begins with a village boy setting off to a monastery to become a demon-hunting monk, only to find out how truly dull monastic life can be.

          Or does our story actually begin with the birth of the stone marten Ta Guan? To learn about what happened in the Heavens, the incredible adventures of Takuan, and what was the end of all of it, read the book ‘Takuan of Koto’ by RyĆ« Zhong.

Date Published: August 6, 2023

 

photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

 

Panda Never Cries is not just another self-help book; it's a transformative journey into the heart of life's most profound lessons, illustrated through the calm, resilient nature of the panda. The panda, with its patient demeanor and tranquil existence, becomes the symbol of our capacity to navigate life's challenges with grace and composure. This book harnesses this imagery, melding it with deeply rooted wisdom to create an insightful guide for personal growth.

Key Themes Explored:

-Resilience in the Face of Adversity: Just as a panda survives harsh conditions and sustains itself predominantly on bamboo, the book emphasizes our ability to adapt and thrive, regardless of life's hardships.

-Balance and Harmony: Drawing parallels between a panda's balanced lifestyle and our need for equilibrium, the book delves into striking a harmony between ambition and contentment, action and reflection, and dreams and realities.

-The Journey, Not Just the Destination: Pandas, with their unhurried pace and serene disposition, teach us the value of savoring the journey, not merely rushing toward the destination. The book underscores the importance of appreciating every moment, highlighting that fulfillment often lies in the journey, not just the endpoint.

-Embracing Change: Pandas, despite their dependence on bamboo, adapt when necessary, showing resilience in changing conditions. The book empowers readers to embrace change, perceive it not as a threat but as an opportunity for growth and evolution.

Teaser: Parallel Secrets by ML Barrs #promo #excerpt #comingsoon #mystery #preorder #rabtbooktours

 

Mystery

Date Published: 9/25/23

Publisher: The Wild Rose Press


photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

After a young girl goes missing, former TV crime reporter Vicky Robeson joins the search with the help of her attractive new love interest. They take his RV to a tiny town in rural Missouri that's filled with odd characters and darker secrets. But Vicky has secrets of her own. She believes this kidnapped girl may be linked to a case she reported on nine years ago, when a mystery child was found walking on levee, bloody and unable to speak. Back then, Vicky failed to follow up clues only she knew. Now, she has a chance to redeem herself. As she uncovers secrets, it becomes clear someone will kill to keep them hidden.



Excerpt

CHAPTER  2 – November 2008

 

Her eyes burned and the campfire smoke now smelled dangerous. She lifted her camp chair and moved away from the fire, away from the heat and light, closer to the RV to have something solid behind her. She read and reread the short article about the missing girl. Ten years old, disappeared from in front of her house while playing with a friend. No witnesses.

Fear and terrible images of a child taken, tortured, possibly killed—especially in Walkers Corner—swept away all thoughts except for what she needed to do next. She might not be able to undo the past, but this time she would do everything she could to help save the child.

It would definitely blow a hole in the camping trip, though, her first with the delectable Pete Harris in his eight-year-old RV. Damn. She liked the way he traveled, the way he thought, the way he looked, the way she felt with him. His jeans and plaid shirt hugged him nicely, and he moved smoothly while making sure everything was just so. And now, he wanted to get a place together. Too bad things were more complicated than that.

When he came over and kissed her, the fire reflected in his smiling eyes, color melting somewhere between chocolate and caramel.

Her return kiss was quick. “Sorry, something urgent’s come up. Would you mind driving me back to town?” Her voice felt tight and strained. “I need to go to Missouri for a few days.”

“What? Now?” He stepped back, looking concerned. “Is everything okay?”

“Yes, fine. I hate to disrupt our trip, but I need to look into something. A girl’s gone missing there, outside St. Louis.”

Pete tilted his head. A lock of light brown hair threaded with gray fell onto his forehead.

A bit more explanation might be called for. “There’s an Amber Alert. Her name’s Rose Willwood. I want to help find her. And I might write about it, and something else that happened there.”

Pete’s brow cleared. “Want me to go with you? I have free time. We can take the RV. If we start early and both drive we can make St. Louis by late tomorrow night.”

“Really?” Just like that, no more questions? What an amazing guy. “That’d be great. It’s about an hour or two this side of St. Louis.” Six months now, and he just gets better and better. Would he be like that if they lived together?

“No problem.” Pete started folding the tarp he used as a tablecloth. “I’d like to see more of Missouri.” He put the tarp and a lantern in one of his crates, already packing for an early departure. “How long do you think we’ll be there?”


About the Author

ML Barrs ran TV newsrooms for years, guiding and managing the content and production of more than eight hours of live newscasts a day.

In her debut novel, Parallel Secrets, protagonist Vicky Robeson shares that kind of experience as well as the author’s passion for justice, especially when it comes to the safety and well-being of children and other vulnerable people.

ML Barrs grew up one of thirteen children—the first girl, with three older brothers—a birth order she believes shaped her essence by the time she was eight. A girl’s gotta be a bit pugnacious to get along in that environment. Amid the chaos of fourteen people living in a mobile home (not a double-wide), she turned fifteen, dropped out of school and ran away from home.

Being homeless, then working minimum wage jobs quickly grew old. She earned her GED and went to college, where she met and married the father of their two grown children. After a successful career as a television news director and general manager, she decided that what she really wanted to do is write mysteries. Parallel Secrets will be published September 2023, and its sequel is in the works.

Some burn in the fire, others are forged in it.

 

I’m justice.

I’m deliverance.

I’m punishment.

Ultimately, I’m a dealer of death.


It’s exactly what they need from me.

To push back the enemy.

To keep them all safe.

I’m always one step ahead.

Until her.


She wasn’t meant to be here.

She’s tempting a cruel twist of fate.

Now he’s got her in his crosshairs.

He’ll feed off her vulnerability.

He’ll make her a victim of his obsession.


If I can’t pull her out, she’ll drown in the dark.

She’ll become as twisted as the rest of us.


 

About the Author

Franca writes emotional and gritty reads about alphas with a dark side and the kickass women who turn their worlds upside down.

She writes to alternative and hard rock with her storyboard of inspiration by her side and some tasty snacks along for the ride. A cross between a pantser and a plotter, she’s happiest when she’s fully immersed in crafting her fictional worlds.

Tour Kick Off: The Heart Knows What the Mind Cannot See by Toby Negus #blogtour #nowontour #giveaway #selfhelp #nonfiction #rabtbooktours @tobynegus




 

Self Help, Spiritual Inspiration

Date Published: 06-21-2021

 

photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

 

This is a thought-provoking and enlightening exploration of spirituality and perception. The text functions as a guide to self-improvement, with a mixture of autobiographical elements and snippets of universal wisdom. The speaker provides accessible solutions to life's difficulties, and an outlook of optimism applicable to any circumstance. The illustrations and graphics are thoughtfully chosen, and the interactive textual elements give this work an originality that sets it apart. The speaker's own experiences and conclusions are at the heart of this fiction, and the first-person narrative voice creates a sense of proximity between author and reader. The text describes itself as 'a journey to the heart', and this truthful discovery of the self is reflected in the speaker's revelation of his whole self through the text. The narrative often presents a dichotomy between positive and negative outlooks or voices.

For example, the speaker includes sections in which his self-doubt speaks, 'you've got no proper education, you can't spell properly, you're dyslexic and your grammar is crap. You're not really a writer'. This negative voice directly opposes the sense of self-belief the speaker builds within the narrative. He uses examples such as this to remind readers that the journey to happiness is complex and that flaws or setbacks are natural. The negative separation or fragmentation of the self is prevalent in the lines, 'I do not love the grumpy me, the sad me, the hostile me, the parts of me that act as if I do not care'. The act of writing represents a unification of the self and an attempt to reframe the speaker's life into coherence. The frequent use of direct address and rhetorical questions promotes an active reading experience, in which the author opens up a dialogue with the reader. The text includes prompts and activities for the reader to engage with and learn from. Encouraging readers to take part in the text is emblematic of their journey to self-fulfillment and love, in which they must take responsibility for actively creating their own happiness.

The speaker depicts his process of enlightenment as a framework for others to emulate, and the format of the text demonstrates the transfer of agency to those who take part in the speaker's challenges at the end of each chapter. This work ultimately teaches us that 'we are the cause of what is' and thus sheds light on the crucial idea that every individual has the power to create themselves and their world positively.

Men in Uniforms: Marines, Book 2 (can be read standalone)

 

Military Romance

Date Published 07-27-2023

 

photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

 

Four years.

It's been four years since Olivia ghosted Dax as he departed for Marine Boot Camp.

Now a Lance Corporal, easy-going Dax "D" Cameron is shocked when the woman who left him with a shattered heart is standing before him.

 

The mix of fury and desire that bubble inside him rocks him to his core. Yet he's stationed stateside for the meantime, and if Olivia can explain herself well enough, it might help him finally get over her.


Which would be good, because his new training can't allow for any distractions. Let alone the buxom, golden, chestnut haired woman from his past. Any mess up or mistake can bring disaster for his entire squad.


When Olivia Hastings turns around to find Dax standing in front of her, she can't believe her eyes. It's the same Dax, only more muscular and his laid-back smile is wiped from his face. He seems larger somehow, and his presence after so long tears her words from her lips.


While she does owe him an explanation, he owes her one as well, because he bailed on her to join the Marines without even asking her what she thought about the idea or how it might affect their relationship. And now that she has a possessive ex dogging her heels, the last thing she needs is to have her emotions riled up by Dax's reappearance.


Because he's more irresistible now than he had been before he left.


Four years, however, wasn't enough time to extinguish the heat between them. And when they make their apologies, sparks fly even hotter than they had in the past.


But it turns out Olivia's ex is more than just an irritation -- he's dangerous. And when his jealously gets out of control, both Olivia and Dax are in his sights.


Can Dax and Olivia overcome their haunting past and her dangerous ex? Or will the challenges be too much for them to bear?
