Tega Cay, SC, May 15, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Fulton Books author Vera LaFleur has completed her most recent book, “Three for the Money”: a gripping thriller that follows a woman who must do all she can to protect herself and her child when a former lover re-enters her life with the intent of robbing the bank her husband currently works at.

Originally from the south-central Louisiana area, author Vera Dugal LaFleur migrated with her Air Force husband to several southwestern and southern states. Currently, she resides in South Carolina and has worked as a journalist, schoolteacher, social worker, and script writer and producer of corporate training videos. Nowadays, Vera is happily devoting herself to writing fiction.

“Christine Lyman almost had it all,” writes LaFleur. “From a life of poverty and the disappearance of her high school sweetheart, she met, fell in love, and married Stewart Lyman, bank owner and the richest man in a small town across the state line. He was driving through her area and stopped for lunch, becoming intrigued by the young and pretty waitress with the soft smile and the ash-blond hair.

“Her challenge now is the well-being of their six-year-old deaf son. After struggling with sign language, she and her husband reluctantly enroll him in a school for the deaf in the neighboring town of Oakton. The child is unhappy with being away from home, unsuccessfully attempts to run away.

“Christine drives to her husband’s bank to discuss this with him, but he is tied up in a board meeting. When the secretary is called into his office, she asks Christine to sit at her desk to answer the phone. Looking around the lobby, Christine spots a familiar face. He is her long-lost boyfriend who disappeared only days before their planned wedding.

“The young man glances across the room, and their gazes lock. He turns to flee the bank. Her recognition has ruined their chance of robbery. But when he reports this to his partners, the older man thinks otherwise. ‘How many old girlfriends with authority do you have working in banks? We can force her to get us into the main vault for a much larger haul than the penny-ante money in the teller’s cages.’

“Thus begins a deadly spiral of intimidation, threats, kidnapping, and murder as the young woman fights to protect herself and her deaf son from her ex-boyfriend, his current and very vindictive girlfriend, and their older mentor in crime.”

Published by Fulton Books, Vera LaFleur’s book is a compelling and enthralling novel that will lead readers on an unforgettable journey, as Christine’s life begins to crumble around her and she is forced to grapple with her past. Expertly paced and full of suspense, this character-driven drama is sure to leave readers on the edge of their seats, desperate for more with each turn of the page right up until the shocking conclusion.

Readers who wish to experience this spellbinding work can purchase “Three for the Money” at select bookstores, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon, Author Ruby Dosanjh has released, expanding a growing body of atmospheric, introspective fiction. The titles — Likewise and Otherwise — explore the quiet emotional shifts that happen between two people who are paying attention.

The first release, Likewise, is a story about subtlety and mirrored feeling. It follows the second meeting that changes the first, the presence that fits too perfectly, and the kind of recognition that arrives without language. Described as “a quiet echo,” the book offers a soft, atmospheric experience for readers who sense emotional shifts before they can name them. Some connections linger — not because they’re forced to, but because they belong.

The second paperback, Otherwise, moves into deeper territory. It traces the moment reflection becomes truth, when two people think of each other without stopping and without softening it into something smaller. What begins as quiet awareness grows into something unmistakable — familiar, unsettling, and impossible to ignore. Otherwise follows the slow, honest shift from noticing to knowing, and the quiet courage it takes to stop pretending nothing is happening.

Together, the releases mark a clear evolution in Ruby Dosanjh’s one‑word consciousness series — stories that move gently, speak quietly, and leave a lasting imprint. Both paperbacks are now available worldwide on Amazon.

Sebastian Clark has released "How To Read People Like A Book: The Subtle Art of How to Analyze People and Speed-Reading to decode Body Language, Intentions, Thoughts, Emotions, Behaviors, and Connect Effortlessly!", first published in 2022, according to an announcement received by Studio CarryOnHarry.

The book lands in a crowded shelf of nonverbal-communication guides. Its own marketing places it alongside Allan and Barbara Pease’s "The Definitive Book of Body Language," Joe Navarro’s "What Every BODY is Saying," and Thomas Erikson’s "Surrounded by Idiots" — three long-running titles that have anchored the popular body-language genre for years. Clark’s book positions itself as a newer entry covering similar ground: understanding facial expressions, gestures, posture, and vocal tone to reveal someone’s actual thoughts.

According to the announcement, the book walks through strategies applicable across various contexts including professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections — with the stated aim of helping readers spot emotions and intentions that go unspoken. Listed topics include facial expression and gesture analysis, context-specific body language decoding, interpreting non-verbal communication, reading vocal cues for emotional undertone, and trusting intuitive reads of subtle signals. The work is categorized within social science studies.

No further biographical detail on Clark accompanied the announcement, and independent listings for the title largely repeat the same publisher description rather than adding new information about the author or the book’s reception since 2022.

Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective

At Studio CarryOnHarry, we’re interested in whether books like Clark’s deliver on their practical promise. The appeal of body-language guides lies less in theory and more in real-world application—the job interview where you’re trying to gauge whether the hiring manager is genuinely interested, the first date where mixed signals leave you uncertain, the negotiation where knowing if the other party is bluffing matters financially. Clark’s positioning across "professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections" suggests he’s aware readers want transferable skills, not just academic frameworks. The question worth asking: does his approach to vocal cues, facial analysis, and contextual interpretation actually equip readers to make better decisions in these high-stakes moments? Or does it risk reinforcing the confidence-without-accuracy trap that plagues intuitive people-reading? For readers considering this purchase, the gap between what body language can reliably tell us and what we wish it could tell us deserves scrutiny.
