Shattered  

About Shattered

Shattered is an erotic paranormal thriller that weaves an intricate web of events involving a playboy pop singer, a romance writer, and an unrelenting vampire. It features an unquenchable thirst for blood, an obsession that spans two decades and love beyond measure. Drake Devereaux, haunted by a tragedy in his past has avoided the trappings of love most of his life. Ebony Jordan is a romance writer who wants to find the kind of love she writes about in her books – the love story her parents never had. Solomon Blackwell, a Rogue vampire sees Ebony one night and is reminded of the lover he lost and vows to make her his own. Drake and Ebony meet by chance and forge an unforgettable connection. As Drake and Ebony’s relationship heats up, Drake realizes he’s falling in love. Instead of embracing it, he allows his fear to drive him away from the one woman who can heal him. After months of being apart, Ebony’s attempt to reach out to Drake ends with a heartbreaking discovery and an unexpected accident that nearly ends her life. Faced with another tragedy, Drake finds out what is truly important. As Drake and Ebony plan a life together, Solomon plots to possess her and shatter their love forever.

Thrust into the middle of this potential Armageddon for New York City are the only four people who can stop it. Bobby Moylan has been a cop’s cop for 42-years and is reluctantly facing his last day due to mandatory age retirement. Inspector Ellen Tomlinson, the Commanding Officer of NYPD Transit Borough Manhattan, was mentored by Moylan and has remained close friends over the years.

Also a former partner of Bobby Moylan, Joey is desperately trying to obtain solid details from an undercover operation he is running on the terror cell. FBI Special Agent Jimmy Boy Craig is the unlikely undercover agent who Lt. Galeno is depending on to break open his case.

Bipolar Man!!: Anxiety Andy and the Investment by Darren DeSmeaux  

About Bipolar Man!!: Anxiety Andy and the Investment by Darren DeSmeaux

*Limited Time Free Promotion – July 6th – July 10th

Boring, monotonous Jameson Theodore, or Bipolar Man as he calls himself, is off his meds – unknowingly. It’s been two weeks since Neurotic Nigel secretly switched out his pills, and the universe has taken notice.
Manic Mandy’s idea to start a toddler driving school gains irreversible momentum when Jameson mentions the idea to the executive team at his company – Ava-Reeshus. Needing investors and a lot of money up-front, Jameson, Mandy, Midlife Crisis Max, and Hypomania Harrison go all-in on the sales pitch of the century. Their target is Jameson’s boss – Anxiety Andy – the CFO at Ava-Reeshus. Everything runs through him.
Andy is a brilliant, but money-centric enigma, and he will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Desperate to get out of his boss’s daily clutches, Jameson must go toe-to-toe with the man he despises the most. And, the game is being played on the most dangerous turf of all – Anxiey Andy’s.
On Jameson’s side – the cosmos – conspiring to tip the scales of karma toward the people who deserve it the most. Unmistakable omens begin to reappear. The timing is too perfect to ignore. His dream team is set. Coincidences line up to help guide him down the path toward salvation. Nothing can get in his way, not even his own family.
The crossroads of Jameson’s life has collided with the investment opportunity of a lifetime, and he knows everything is on the line. There’s a fortune to be made, dreams to be realized, lessons to be taught – to greedy, unethical, and downright unlikeable company executives, and destinies to fulfill. If Jameson and friends pull it off, their lives will never be the same again.
The second installment of the Bipolar Man! Comedic Adventures series launches Jameson and his friends into an intense, hilarious, action-packed storm of promise and uncertainty – where emotions run high, decisions carry unbearable weight, and moral boundaries are as abstract as Anxiety Andy’s intentions.
The journey will be treacherous… packed full of insurmountable barriers and unbearable emotions, and it will test every ounce of faith Jameson has stored inside.
Soon, his friends, his family, and the entire world will understand. The time has come for Bipolar Man to make his mark, no matter the sacrifice. Everyone is depending on the outcome.

Author Bio:
John Hindmarsh was born in 1785. From Wikipedia – Rear-Admiral Sir John Hindmarsh RN (1785 – 1860) was a naval officer and the first Governor of South Australia, from December 1836 to July 1838.

During the Battle of the Nile on 1 August 1798, the fire on board the French line-of-battle ship l’Orient put the Bellerophon (1786) in danger; all the other officers on the quarterdeck on the Bellerophon were killed or wounded, so 13-year-old Midshipman John Hindmarsh gathered some of the crew, cut the anchor cables, and raised a spritsail to get the ship moving.

You realize I write fiction? The above is all true – except I’m a different John Hindmarsh.

Yes, I write science fiction and thrillers, sometimes with crossover. Well, you need a thrill in your SF and an occasional touch of science in your thrillers. I’m Australian, and now live in the High Sierra region of California, where I’m writing full time. I could be hiking, kayaking or skiing, when I’m not writing.

My books generally are written with an American voice [well, I try], although I prefer to write British English. So I get mixed up – in any event, I claim aluminium is the correct word.
See more details at http://www.JohnHindmarsh.com

Thrillers.
Mark Midway series. Mark One, Mark Two, Mark Three, and Mark Four are available now; individually, or as a boxed set.

Annihilation Series. The Darwin Project was released in October. The second book – Body Shop – was released in February, 2018. Natural Born will be released in July and I, President shortly after.
The theme – AI: Demon or Friend, the Beginning or the End?

Science Fiction.
The Glass Complex series. The first book is Broken Glass, followed by Fracture Lines and the third book, Diamond Cut, was released in 2017. Fain Gambit is targeted for 2018 release.

Shen Ark: Departure was released as a possible beginning of a series. Currently it is a standalone title.

I have written a number of short stories, all science fiction although perhaps one or two have a touch of fantasy.

About When Love Comes Home Book 2 – Small Town Hearts Trilogy

The summer before she left for college, Kari Nelson had the world in the palm of her hand. She was on her way out of her small hometown and out from under the thumbs of her controlling parents. But more importantly, she was in love for the first time.

That summer would change her life forever.

Years after returning home unexpectedly, Kari is no longer a naive and hopeful teenager. She’s a grown woman who has been married and divorced, and is now a single mother who balances running a respectable business while also raising her daughter. The daughter Marc Eaddens, the boy she’d loved all those summers ago, didn’t know he had.

That boy is now a man who’s returned to town to take over the family business from his ailing father. Sparks fly and tensions rise when he discovers the truth about the girl in Kari’s life. Will he forgive Kari for keeping her secret – and his daughter – to herself? And can the two of them come together for their child…and themselves?

Author Bio:
Al Lockwood and I (Sunny) met late in life, long after college and careers. We both loved reading, weekend travel, socializing with friends, and our creative pursuits. (I’d been a newspaper reporter, editor and columnist. He was a photographer who also designed and built homes).

But a texting driver slamming into us at full speed while we sat at a red light, changed our lives. The wreck woke us up to the fragility of life. And although we’d been busy with all our various involvements, we realized that we’d better stop putting off dreams we hoped to do “some day.”

And most of our “some day” dreams were travel related. We registered for a Panama Canal cruise. Pre-cruise research revealed the fascinating political high jinks behind the canal, and the heart-breaking cost in terms of lives lost in building it.

The story mesmerized us, but not as much as the trip itself, traveling through the world’s most famous short-cut in exactly the same way the first ship went through.

It was all so exciting, we wrote a book about it: Cruising Panama’s Canal.
And our new adventure — writing travel memoirs — was born. Since that first travel memoir (which, by the way, was a finalist in the National Indie Excellence Awards), we’ve written travel memoirs about cruising the Mediterranean, cruising the Atlantic and exploring Venice, Florence, Rome & Barcelona.

Our memoir, Cruising the Mediterranean, won the gold medal for adult nonfiction in the 2016 Wishing Shelf Book Awards, and the first place in adult fiction in the 2016 Seven Sisters Book Awards. It was also a finalist in the 2017 Best Book Awards.

That travel memoir, and the two others in this box set, document our unforgettable journey through Amsterdam, Venice, Athens, Istanbul, Rome, Florence, Barcelona and other magical places.

We write to share our adventures and to encourage others to make their own long-held dreams come true.

When we’re not traveling, we take classes at the local community college, enjoy the company of friends and family, read a book or two a month (I read nonfiction, Sweetheart Al reads thrillers), and think about our next trip.

The Steel Road by Edie James  

About The Steel Road by Edie James

Sundered for a reason, the world is two-sided. But mankind defied the sanctions, conjuring a passage from the Old World through the equatorial ring of flames and inhabiting the elven hemisphere. As this invasive species disseminates, conflict ensues, centuries pass, and an industrial revolution begins.

Now, reparations must be made.

A human-elf hybrid is murdered to spark a cleansing fire but is denied passage to the heavens. Instead, Dreyah is reborn headstrong and impetuous but more so than any other teenager, is uncertain about her place in the world. Seeking revenge for her murder, Dreyah traverses Udia, a realm that was devastated by an old war between her two peoples, and the circumstances highlight her greatest dilemma; she must choose a side in the coming days.

Sixteen years ago, Cambria’s king gave Kennason to a foreigner as a gesture of peace between their two realms. But after the death of her second husband and a marriage of mutual distaste, Kennason abandons the Andanes and returns to her homeland where magic is not tolerated but steam and pistons charm the masses. Reunited with family and in the solace of an emerging romance, she grasps contentment. But when renegade wizards abduct her, painful family secrets reveal there was more to Kennason’s banishment than a simple gift.

When Old World monsters begin menacing Cambria, Kennason and Dreyah find their tracks are bound together by history, prejudice, betrayal, and blood as they race to uncover old truths and protect their loved ones in the first installment of The Ardent Halo story.

The journey continues in the “The Vatic Confluence”. The first and second installment will be free from 7/6/18-7/8/18. Please post reviews on Amazon or Goodreads!

Author Bio:
Besides a love of great adventures, my diverse career includes engineering, taxes, and the most challenging occupation, wrangling two boys – that’s right, I love numbers, problem-solving, and my family. I reside in a spirited little town in Oregon, but my sweet husband is finishing up his 24-year career in the military so we have experienced many regions of the United States.

I have met many great characters along the way, but all characters in The Ardent Halo saga story are fictional, except Grantis Rand and Aeryn O’Ter. When I first declared I was going to write a book, my then 6 and 8-year-old sons said they wanted to be in it. They picked their character type, but I tried to write their actual personalities into the story. Years have passed, and as Grant and Aaron approach their character’s age, it’s like having a gregarious warrior and cunning wizard in the house (and raiding the pantry).

Epic stories where the dividing line between good and evil is less than certain are my favorite. I love characters who tactile, flawed, and struggle to find compass north, and those who just ignore the compass and make a left-hand turn. Whimsical fantasy with protagonists and antagonists that were popped out of the mainstream molds are dull. I want to feel like the story and its characters could be real.

The Story I Tell Myself: How Self-Narratives Define Our Identity, Hold Us Back and How We Can Change Them  

About The Story I Tell Myself: How Self-Narratives Define Our Identity, Hold Us Back and How We Can Change Them

You know who you are, right? Of course you do, you’re you! But what if who you think you are is actually holding you back, closing off exciting opportunities that are right in front of you, and preventing you from achieving your best potential? This book explores the concept of self-narrative, or the stories that we tell ourselves about who we are and our place in the world.

In this book, I explore how understanding our own self-narratives and challenging them can enable you to change how you think about yourself and open up those opportunities that you could be missing. Using examples from my own journey, I provide a process that you can follow to increase your own self-awareness, understand what your self-narrative says and how it impacts your daily life, and gives a template on how to make changes to your narrative.

We are powerful storytellers, telling ourselves our most impactful story of all. By understanding and changing your story you can make real positive change in your life. Use your own story to learn, grow and achieve what you want.
