The plot in brief:
Nedoyka protests against milking, refuses to "give milk," and longs for freedom and independence.
Paulo, on the other hand, is focused on his appearance and attention, but loses his status when a new "fighting" rooster appears in the yard.
When the animals learn that the farmer is going to send Nedoyka to the slaughterhouse and Paulo to the soup, they decide to escape from the barn.
After an adventurous escape, they end up at a dairy factory and a poultry factory, where they see a mechanized system of animal exploitation.

Now I want them even more. -------------------------- Eighteen year old Mileva never thought her past would catch up to her after leaving years ago to live in New York City.

Second Chance Romance Love-at-first sight--faster-paced love affair Single father Surprise baby HEA standalone Five years ago, my life changed when my wife left my two-year-old son and me in the middle of the night-breaking my heart. After that, I vowed to friends and family that I'd never fall in love again and would only focus on raising my autistic son and working on my farm and horse ranch. That was until a beautiful blonde-haired, green-eyed beauty moved to my town--changing my life forever. Being stubborn, I did everything I could not to let my ticker control me and my thinking process--avoiding eye contact with Josie, conversations, and what my ticker, mind, and soul was telling me... But then I saw Josie daily at the diner she worked at and became jealous whenever Jack, the town's annoying wanna-be cowboy, tried striking a relationship up with her. I always felt my wife, Hailey, would return to Maverick and me, and we'd be a family again. But the more time I focused on the new girl in town, the more I wanted Hailey out of my life, and the more I wanted Josie in mine. Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I'd never give--my ticker. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/AKcoverdesignComplete

The Chicken Who Thought He was a Lawyer
In the tiny town of Waddlebottom, where ducks wear sunglasses and cows go to therapy, lives a chicken named Gregory Peckenson. Gregory is no ordinary chicken-he once got struck by lightning while pecking an electric fence and suddenly believed he was a top-tier lawyer. Now, wearing a suit made from napkins and a tie stolen from a garden gnome, Gregory sets out to prove to the world that even a flightless bird with zero law degree and questionable hygiene can make a difference. This 40-chapter story follows Gregory's inspirational (and ridiculous) journey as he takes on wild courtroom cases: defending a squirrel accused of nut hoarding, suing the rain for emotional damage, and representing a cow who identifies as a llama. But underneath the humor lies a heartfelt tale about self-belief, friendship, and the courage to defy the world's expectations-even when you're a chicken. Join Gregory, his sarcastic sidekick (a snail named Turbo), and a retired opera-singing goat named Madame Bleat as they stumble through trials, courtroom chaos, deep life lessons, and hysterical moments that'll leave readers howling with laughter-and quietly wiping a tear by the end.Complete
