Scene of the Crime by Jennifer Chase
About Scene of the Crime by Jennifer Chase
A calculating cold-blooded predator closes in…
When a community has barely recovered from a ruthless serial killer six months earlier; now two more horrifying murders hit the radar again. It leaves police burdened with two of the most shockingly contaminated crime scenes ever documented in California’s law enforcement history. The Slayer works behind the scenes as a sinister puppet master, precisely pulling the strings, taunting the police without leaving any viable evidence, and orchestrating his killer hit squads.
The sheriff and district attorney bring in the best investigators. Reunited again, Dr. Chip Palmer, a reclusive forensic expert, joins DA Inspector Kate Rawlins to sort through the crime scene aftermath in search of the truth—all without a probable suspect or a solid motive. Complicating the investigation—sparks reignite between the two.
Ratcheting up the suspense, Chip suffers a nasty fall hitting his head, impairing his perception and giving him a mind-blowing ability for specific detailed recall. Palmer and Rawlins assemble an unusual team including a rookie detective, a forensic supervisor, and an ex-military operative turned bodyguard. After one of their own is kidnapped and the investigation is taken over by the FBI, the now rogue team must pull together their own resources—alone—with a killer waiting to take each one of them out. Scene of the Crime takes no prisoners and leaves everyone fighting to stay alive.

Stand By Your Man
Me and my brothers have a reputation around town.
And it ain’t a good one.
We’re not so bad, though. Working hard for our father’s ranch by day and chasing skirts by night.
It’s what Texas cowboys do.
But someone is trying to fuck with our crops, and when I find him, he’s gonna wish I hadn’t.
We need help, and as always, help arrives. This time in the form of a sexy strut and a sweet, innocent attitude.
A beautifully uptight college research assistant is the last thing I need but the first thing I’ll take.
And she wants to keep things hot and casual while we figure things out.
Feels like a win-win to me.
Long nights with nothing but her boots on and up in the air. That’s what I’m talking about.
But things change. For me.
Never have I thought of myself as a romantic, but this nerdy girl from town has my blood pumping and heart racing.
Maybe it’s not just lust. Lucky thing.

I’ve Decided to Live 120 Years: The Ancient Secret to Longevity, Vitality, and Life Transformation
About I’ve Decided to Live 120 Years: The Ancient Secret to Longevity, Vitality, and Life Transformation
For most of our lives, we work hard, reaching for success, until we are faced with retirement. If you retire at age 65, you may think you have about 20 more years to relax and enjoy your life. But what if you had more time? What if you had another 40 or 50 years to live? Would it make a difference in how you lived?
Ilchi Lee stresses that you can extend your life way beyond what most of us have accepted as our biological age limit, even up to 120 years. But the real question is, can we have not only a long life, but also a fulfilling one? Lee’s answer is a resounding yes, and it starts with the power of choice, a practice of self-reliance, and most importantly, a greater sense of purpose.
“I’ve Decided to Live 120 Years” will be $2.99 as part of Amazon’s Kindle Monthly Deals throughout September 2018.

Born in Seattle, she moved to Portland when she graduated from Business School. She started working on a bookstore and she has been there ever since.
Writing has always been her passion. She started writing as soon as she learned how to write but her passion for romance and erotica only came when she fell in love for the first time, with one of her high school teachers.
She has been looking for love her whole life, but Prince Charming still hasn’t shown up.
Come for Me
She left me. Married another man and ripped my heart out.
Now she’s back and begging for my help.
No way am I getting involved. Except I already am.
Savannah.
Her name still makes my head buzz.
We were in love, or so I thought.
But she broke my heart.
I made the army my home and tried to forget her fresh floral scent.
Her heart-pounding beauty.
The fool who stole her from me.
I thought I’d succeeded.
Until I got the call.
“Jayden, I need your help.”
What could I say?
It’s been years since Savannah begged me for anything.
Her child is missing.
The cops think he’s dead.
Her husband thinks she’s depressed. Crazy.
Maybe she is.
I won’t stop until I find out the truth.
The man who stole her son will pay.
And just maybe Savannah and I can fix what we used to have.

Sweet Delicious Agony by Yesenia Faye
About Sweet Delicious Agony by Yesenia Faye
This book of poetry is a journey of self, sailing over a tumultuous sea of desire.
Sometimes you are forced to hold it in. Immeasurable love, a desire so intense that it threatens to consume everything. Sweet Delicious Agony is split into three parts: aching, hurting, and rising. When it comes to love, sometimes you need to ache, then ache so much that it hurts, before you can finally rise.
but make me wait;
force me to contain the madness
let the pressure build;
make me swallow my own words
make me take back everything i said about waiting
make it so that any moment now
i’ll snap and lose control
