About Persuading Perfection by TC Matson

A new second chance STANDALONE.

A simple, secret affair with my brother’s best friend—that’s what it was supposed to be.

Zachary Calloway was the master of broken hearts and completely off limits.
Except his smooth talking sexy ways were irresistible, landing me in over my head.

Jade Lauder was supposed to be a secret. No one could ever know the times we shared.
Except here she stood with the biggest change in our lives.

Years of secrets will be revealed.
Years of heartache will come back to deliver a bitter sting.
Years of friendships will be demolished.
Years of lies will be exposed.

All for something we couldn’t deny.

The broken heart I never intended to give her stands between us.
With no more secrets, it’s time to persuade her to give me a second chance.

A second chance at loving her…
And this time, I’m not letting go.

Author Bio:
Sondra Sykes Meek is originally from Florida, but she has lived in several locations in the United States and abroad. She is a wife and mother of two, a retired Marine Corps Master Sergeant, and a Project Manager in the Defense Industry. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in English and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing.

Sondra wrote and published Model Marine: A Novel to reveal the courage and sacrifices of Marines and their families. She wanted to offer readers another kind of hero: someone who is not supernatural, immortal, or from the future. Although the events of this story are fiction, the setting and characters are influenced by her experiences as a Marine. The narrative is as authentic as it can be without excluding civilian readers. The protagonist is named after a Marine Corps icon, “Molly Marine,” which is especially relevant now, as 2018 marks 100 years since the first woman joined the United States Marine Corps.

Sondra hopes all readers enjoy this emotional journey of love, loss, and sacrifice. There are real heroes hidden within the pages of her debut novel. She invites you to meet them, love them, and remember them.

About Dino (Glass City Hearts Book 2) by Desiree Lafawn

His name is Dino. He’s nothing but a liar and a mystery to all who think they know him. With so many identities, he barely knows who he really is anymore. On the surface he’s just another muscled thug breaking kneecaps and extorting money from local business owners. He can’t tell anyone about his real agenda, and even if he could, would anyone believe him?

Jeanette has finally stopped running. She knows better than to think she’s safe, but at least she’s found a place to call home. A place where she won’t have to start over with a new name and a new past – again. However, she’s not the only one with secrets. She knows there is more to Dino than meets the eye. She can sense he’s got plenty to hide, but she doesn’t have the right to ask him to open up and let her in. After all, she’s nothing but a liar herself.

Soon enough their twisted histories will collide, and Dino and Jeanette will have to sort out the truth from the lies. The problem is, neither of them want to come clean.

About Raven Thrall by J. Elizabeth Vincent

Born a freak.

Betrayed by her mother.

Forced from her home.

Seven years after narrowly escaping enslavement, half-hawk, half-woman Mariah has finally found some peace, people who love her, and an isolated home safe in the kingdom of Cillian.

But she’s never come to terms with who she is. Clearly not human, she’s not Ceo San either, chosen of the gods, able to shift from human to animal form at will, and the target of the king of Varidian.

When Xae, a fifteen-year-old raven Ceo San, shows up, self-acceptance becomes the least of Mariah’s worries. The fellow refugee is determined to return to Varidian to save the family he left behind, and Mariah’s adopted grandmother insists that she help the boy on his suicide mission.

But how can she expose herself, risk the freedom for which she paid so dearly?

With the lives of two little girls in the balance, fate and a strange magic she doesn’t understand set Mariah on a path toward confrontation with the dangerous elements she has spent her entire life trying to escape.

Author Bio:
J. Elizabeth Vincent writes mostly speculative fiction because she has always seen reading and writing as a means of escape, a way to run away from real life—just for a little while—and get lost in the (im)possible. J. Elizabeth started writing at the age of 14. She spent her high school years telling her best friend fantastical stories all about the glamorous lives they would one day lead (well, maybe). These tales held everything from witches to vampires to rock concerts to boys with extremely talented teeth. Story notes were passed, and dirty looks were given by well-meaning teachers. Nowadays, J. Elizabeth shares her love of writing with the rest of the world. Good stories unite us as human beings. They entertain us and give us hope, even when the world around us seems to be falling apart. J. Elizabeth won second place in fiction in the 2016 Blue Ridge Writers Golden Nib contest for her suspense short story “Transgression” (published in Skyline 2017). Her fantasy short story “Fly,” the prologue to Raven Thrall, was originally published in November 2017 in the VWC Centennial Anthology 1918–2018. Raven Thrall is her debut novel. The second book in the Legends of the Ceo San series, Revelation of the Dragon, is well under way, and J. Elizabeth also has an urban fantasy novel, Blood Mastery, under revision. She plans to add to her growing list of books and short stories as quickly as she can.

About Running from Monday by Lea Sims

Delaney Anderson is a confident, successful digital media executive living the dream in the heart of Manhattan. She has everything a modern woman could want—husband, home, wealth, connections, and a killer corner office overlooking the city. She’s on track to make vice president in another few years. But Delaney is also a woman with a story, one that’s been locked inside her for most of her life. When that story starts banging to get out, life begins to unravel. A perfunctory marriage leads to an affair with a coworker. A painful and expensive divorce leaves her suddenly uncertain and adrift. When the death of a family member forces her to return home after many years, she gears up for a fight with the ghosts of her past. But she runs head first into the grace of God—in the form of an old family friend, an unexpected church, and a disconcertingly kind man. She receives revelation from an unusual source and finds the courage to speak her truth and drop her chains. Through Delaney, we learn that we all have a story and that letting God redeem that narrative is the only path to a life of purpose.

About Accidentally Royal

About Doomsday is on Wednesday

An electrifying story jam-packed with twists until the very end.

When you cost the government billions, you know your life is over. Uncover the largest illegal research project in history…you’re as good as dead.

EARL SWINGER, a reclusive engineer, is on the run. He’s got his good name, a cryptic message from The Consortium – a group high-tech Crunchers – who’ve all mysteriously vanished, and a head start. His trackers, trained by multiple intelligence agencies, have the skillsets of high-octane bloodhounds; if demons had a bus pass to Earth.

JULIAN MERCY, shriveling away on her deathbed, wants revenge on her own government for something she’s called the ultimate sin. The new government refuses to let this happen and have plans in place to stop her terroristic treat from being realized in America. Julian has promised to deliver her payback, someday on a Wednesday, with her remaining breath, to as wide an audience as possible as their DOOMSDAY, and it will be their apocalypse.

The public wants the truth and Mercy wants vengeance, but Swinger must dodge his trackers for as long as possible while all the pieces of the puzzle come together. Can Swinger, a civilian, survive long enough against the best-trained government assassins the world has ever seen to expose the greatest government conspiracy of the century?

Author Bio:
SEAN BELA, pronounced Sedook-el-Beselaekis in Dexus (which, according to Sean, is a written psychotic anagram language), is a 370-year-old time-traveling Martian. He was hatched in 2599 out of a test-tube only six weeks before the arrival of his generation ship from Dexus Omega. He grew to adult size during the following six weeks and was recruited in the Alliance to liberate Mars from Earth during the first of six wars of Liberation between the two planets.

After the wars of liberation ended, which went poorly for the Martians, he was forced to move to Earth to hide among humans, but was quickly revealed to be an extraterrestrial. Sean was conscripted into the Marine Corps as a military counterspy – for the highly-demanded skill sets he picked up while serving as a double agent in the Martian Alliance’s Navy.

He soon became interested in creative writing to express the distresses he witnessed with humans and their Martian cousins in conflict. After receiving an accolade for a writing contest at his alma mater, the University of Connecticut; where he majored in Molecular and Cell Biology, Sean requested to be released from the military. Realizing his request would be denied, and having learned a bit about human history, Sean created a two-part time machine with the help of his three brilliant friends and they disappeared from the 26th century. He arrived in Roswell, New Mexico on July, 1947 and has been traveling throughout the states since his release from the government detainment camp in 1979.

When asked why he writes in the science-fiction, thriller, and fantasy genres he says “Because they are among the most awkward and thought-provoking genres and I just can’t get enough of them… when I turn off my television or put a book down, I still want to live in those worlds I see on the screen or read in ink, for good or for bad. They give me a potential glimpse of my world of origin, Dexus Omega. A world I will never know.”

Sean’s interests lie in the economic and political ramifications of scientific and technological advancements, because where he lived on Mars, this was all that the locals discussed. “It had run amuck… we had psychometric weapons that were capable of tracking and destroying you based on what it picked up from your thoughts… we had to take desperate measures to survive. Some people had their memories wiped every time they went to sleep, reliving the next day as if yesterday never happened.”

His general focus is on the variant aspects of futuristic probabilities, and potential outcomes where technology begins to run out of the control of its maker; an allegory for the relationship between a creator and mankind; a concept which he says is new to him. “On my world, I learned, we never had a concept of a creator. We ‘Dexusians’ are taught that the universe had always existed, all on its own.”

His inspiration comes from the works of Frank Herbert, Ray Bradbury, and Isaac Asimov – who he claims were the travelers who built and accompanied him on his trip from the future. Although they have all passed, he says that they will remain dear to his heart for inspiring him to become a fiction writer. “I can never fill their shoes… they were great pillars of sci-fi fantasy… I only wish to walk in them some day.”

Vivid images also inspire Sean, who struggles with a form of bipolar disorder he picked up from his lengthy exposure to humans and human concepts. These images further fuel his curiosity and desire to express himself on paper. Sean Bela now lives in the Bushwick section of Brooklyn, New York where he awaits the second time ship’s arrival for his planned return trip to 2599. “My arrival here is a paradox in and of itself, so I must return eventually. I will miss this place dearly when that inevitable day comes.”
