The Paisley Hunter Detective Files: The Butcher, The Takers, And The Money Makers (Book 1) by Alan W. Hounshell

For former Chicago Police Detective Paisley Hunter, retiring to run a farm and an ice cream shop in Fester, Kentucky was a dream come true. It was a way to forget about her husband’s unsolved murder, bond with her daughter Kansas, and reduce her multiple sclerosis stress-related symptoms. However, some retirements are never meant to be.

A dead body discovered in Paisley’s ice cream shop’s freezer pulls Paisley into the dark world of the Black Market Syndicate (BMS), a greedy, global, criminal organization with powerful allies that sells babies and young teens for exorbitant prices, who so far has been unstoppable. Things become more complicated when a cannibalistic serial killer known as the Butcher becomes involved in the BMS’ Red River Gorge operation.

As Paisley closes in on the pregnant teens’ location, she finds betrayal and deceit at every turn. Paisley, along with an old high school boyfriend, Kentucky State Police Detective Bishop Knight, and her former CPD partner, Charlie Yocum (now an FBI agent), take on the Butcher and the BMS. Will they be able to stop the BMS before more babies are taken, and more girls are killed? Who can Paisley trust when the BMS has built itself on secrecy and loyalty and whose motto is “profit first?” Most of all — who is this Butcher, and why does this killer have an insatiable craving for human flesh?

About The M. Goose Chronicles: There He Kept Her Very Well by M. Goose

Mary, a mischievous eleven-year-old, is pulled into a risky missing person’s case and finds herself dodging nefarious miscreants who are after a long-hidden journal that she has uncovered. When an old photograph surfaces that provides clues to Mary’s own family mystery, it isn’t long before it’s revealed that the two cases are intertwined and the young girl must solve the case before she becomes a missing person herself.

With a backdrop of dark humor and intrigue, this book is the first in The M. Goose Chronicles, and aims to combine a classic feel with a contemporary mystery story, using artful language and is steeped in serious humor and crafty storytelling. Reminiscent of Lewis Carroll’s voice of Alice along with the drollery style of Lemony Snicket, the book will have middle-grade readers enjoying the fun and inventive twists to the characters and places of their beloved nursery tales.

M. Goose is not a goose, though she has been known to honk like one. She has few living friends who know who she is and the few she does have seem to live in corners of varying size and are never around. Or maybe she is the one never around. This would make sense, since, on some accounts she doesn’t exist and on others she is dead. And even on two, she is someone else entirely.

About Primal Instinct by Minerva Hart

The year is 2099, and America has taken ‘capitalism’ to a new extreme. After going bankrupt trying to fix the climate disasters it didn’t stop in time, the government auctioned off portions of the land to big corporations. Those living in these auctioned-off lands are totally reliant on the wealthy’s mercy, made all the more precious by the massive flooding and toxic environment rendered real by the climate crisis. The corporate CEOs live in luxury while all those who serve them have to depend on them for food, board, and employment. Those who are of no use to the rich are left to fend for themselves. Everyone is but a tool for the rich to use, abuse, and discard. Their bodies are hardly even their own. Freddie Molloy is a victim of this system. Mutated, cynical, and lonely, he has no hope for his life or the world that he lives in. But all of that will change when he first hears a mermaid’s hypnotic song.

Author Bio:
Growing up as a young black girl in Fort Worth, TX life wasn’t so bad from the outside looking in. I had two amazing parents that modeled the true meaning of love, a well-structured environment to grow up in, and a strong support system. I was always very in tune with my feelings and emotions. I was an athlete that played basketball, soccer, track & field, and even tennis. I also enjoyed playing the piano, singing, writing poetry, and most of all I LOVED to laugh and make others laugh. I still do. It gives me joy to know that I have the power to make someone in my life smile. Because that’s what life is all about right? They say it’s important to: “Live, Laugh and Love”.

However, what “they” don’t tell you about this growing-up stuff is how the stresses of everyday life, activities and the pedestal that your loved ones place you on can sometimes be a bit overwhelming. But you know what? That’s okay.
Life can be unpredictable sometimes and when you think about it, everyone is running around the world just trying to do the best that they can. We experience new things and new people every day and if we’re lucky, we get to experience more feelings than just “happy” and “sad”.

I honestly wish I had this guide to help me navigate through the growing pains and different phases in my life, even as an adult. Hopefully, this guide can help you “Find Your Balance” by bringing you a bit of peace on those overwhelming days. Or, at least provide a bit of comfort in those unfamiliar times in life. If nothing else, read, have fun, and interact with your thoughts and ideas. You’d be surprised at how much you learn about yourself when you begin to challenge yourself, question yourself, and listen to what’s inside of you.

About Wanted: Vampire’s Assistant

Ever had life kick you in the teeth after it shoved you down the stairs?

Yeah, that’s how my day was heading.

And then I saw an ad in the paper that changed my life—Wanted: Vampire’s Assistant. Qualifications must include: loyalty, sturdiness, flexibility, dependability, fearlessness, intelligence, and please no applicants that are prone to temper or fits of terror.

Normally, I’d laugh at the absurd ad, but I emailed the prankster—Draven Leto, instead. People need jobs, Mr. Leto. Prank ads are not appreciated.

I wasn’t expecting to get a reply.

And I certainly wasn’t expecting for the ad to be invisible to everyone else on my floor.

Then a self-proclaimed vampire with a voice that could melt honey called and invited me to interview for the position.

And I accepted.

Like I said, life changing.

Wanted: Vampire’s Assistant is part of my new Moonhaven Cove series. Each book in the series builds off the previous books, but still stands on its own. If you’re looking for clean paranormal romance with swoony kisses, snappy dialogue, funny and heartwarming characters, and plenty of suspense and action, you’ve found the right place. Welcome to Moonhaven Cove.
