About BULLDOG vs. THE CRUSHER by Doris Rangel

Not only does Trini Moscorro have a drool-worthy body, but he’s an interesting guy, the perfect candidate for Rae Malloy’s human interest column, Viva, San Antonio! Now why, the journalist in her wonders, would a TV wrestling star give it all up to become a high school history teacher and assistant coach?

Rae Malloy might be a beautiful woman whose vivid style and straight from the shoulder personality calls to him as no woman has in a very long time, but Trini, once the Masked Crusher, wants no one prying into his personal life, especially if it might do harm to his children. Still, Rae isn’t known as Bulldog by her peers for nothing. Digging in her six inch heels, she takes her corner for this battle of wills.

Trouble is, the combatants can’t keep their hands off each other and, much to the chagrin of both of them, hearts get laid on the line.

But Trini has the ultimate defense, as far as Rae is concerned: his kids. They might be cute and sweet and all that other nonsense, but they’re, well, kids. And kids are Rae’s kryptonite.

This is Book One is the Viva, San Antonio! series, each featuring one of “The Three Amigos” who grew up on San Antonio’s southwest side. The launch price of $.99 is good only through the month of September.

Author Bio:
I lived in San Antonio for many years. My children were born there. I taught school there – on the South Side, West Side, and the Southwest Side. Much of my take on the city stems from those experiences. San Antonio is a multi-colored city, full of multi-cultures expressed in multi-accents. On moving to it after living abroad, I felt right at home. I am not Hispanic myself, but I married a man who was. We lived a bi-cultural lifestyle, raising our children in the enjoyment of both the Anglo and Hispanic sides of our union.
It’s true I am more a country girl than a city girl. I no longer live in San Antonio, preferring smaller communities if I can’t live in the mountains or on the prairie. Still, if I had to live in a city, I would again choose San Antonio as a small town grown large. (Second choice would be Dublin, another city with the ‘small town grown large’ feel, though it’s been a ‘city’ for centuries; third choice is Seville because it celebrates such a wonderful mix of people.)
As you can tell, I have a difficult time dealing with mono-culturalism. Gets kinda bland to my way of thinking. Maybe it’s because I was raised in Texas, which, like much of the US, was settled by a polyglot of cultures. The usual perceptions of the state emphasize its Spanish/Mexican roots, but in actuality people from all over the world came to Texas looking for a place where they could start over. Next time you are in San Antonio, visit The Institute of Texan Cultures. You will be amazed at the diversity in what you find there.
And no, I receive no kickback from the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce.

I love to write and so far, my books have been well received. My story NO TOMORROWS has a rating of 4.7 stars at this time, with comments like, “Once I picked the book up, I could not put it down” and “It’s the kind of book that stays with you.” Bulldog vs. The Crusher is a much different kind of story, of course, more humor, less angst, but I hope readers like it, too.

About In A Flash: A Memoir by R.J. Castille

Sometimes we experience something so traumatic in our lives, it changes us forever…

Renee Johnson has found herself in the midst of turmoil. She has made nothing but a complete mess out of her life and nothing could prepare her for the path laid out before her. An unexpected turn of events plunges her into the most challenging situation she has ever faced. With her best friend, Miah Hunter at her side, Renee must traverse a course that most would not even dare.

Chase Randall, Renee’s new love interest and her light in a dark world, has been challenged by something he never expected. A surprise situation sure to test his resolve and ultimately, his humanity. Despite the negative impact of their plight on their lives, Chase weather’s the storm, only to face the biggest tribulation in the end.

Together, Renee and Chase withstand the beating, leaving them to face a new world in the aftermath of their tragic loss.

Subjected to the indecision of medical professionals who insist on perpetuating a practice they claim is safe, every woman should learn to question them. Doctors are human too and are far from perfect, but patients tend to say nothing, never challenge their practices, and therefore things will never change. The events described in this memoir were either a direct or indirect result of a doctor’s dismissal of signs of impending difficulties, or their failure to act in a timely fashion using interventions that could have otherwise made a difference. In A Flash calls them all into question and, with any luck, will force them to at least look into what appears to be the source of devastating loss for thousands of women everywhere. End the madness: Question their motives, stand up for your rights, and never allow them to disregard even the slightest concern.

About The Genesis of Evangeline by Rachel Jonas

Wolves. Dragon shifters. A fallen kingdom destined to rise again.

Evie Callahan is positive there’s something strange going on in Seaton Falls, her new home. The locals are bigger, stronger, and faster than most. That includes Nick, the boy next door who’s become her silver lining in this godforsaken town.

She wants to trust her instincts–about Nick, about what she suspects in Seaton Falls–but rumors of wolves and dragon shifters makes it hard to tell what’s real. With a history of odd dreams and the nagging sense that she’s never belonged, Evie fears she’s losing touch with reality. Her concern only grows when someone who’s haunted these dreams is suddenly tangible … and claims to hold the key to unlocking her true identity.

Finding out her entire life has been a lie is scary enough, but what’s downright terrifying is discovering who she’s destined to become.

Evie’s much more than your average, seventeen-year-old girl.

And this is her genesis.

About Dinomorphs: Back to the Beginning by Odin Gray

“What if you were sucked into a portal to a parallel universe? One where the dinosaurs never went extinct? One where they evolved to rule?

Sounds pretty epic, huh? Believe me, it is and not in a good way. It’s been nothing short of a nightmare. From a casual Friday night at the beach to being chased through carnivorous jungles and the streets of their fortified cities, I just want to go home where the most stressful thing is breaking in my new surfboard.

Getting home isn’t going to be easy, though. On this world, the dinosaur royals—the Annunaki—reign supreme. To them, our kind are nothing but dogs, shackled slaves to the Royal houses. The Annunaki might have bigger teeth, but with us, they are about to learn they’ve bitten off more than they can chew. We have a surprise up our sleeves, one that will make them see that no one holds our leash.

My name is Kellen Masters and this is my story—welcome to the world of the Marduk.”

This debut novel of the DINOMORPHS is suitable for all ages thirteen and up. Grab your copy now!

Author Bio:
Odin Gray is an Australian YA fantasy and Adult Urban Fantasy writer. He is best known for his YA ‘DINOMORPHS’ and ‘Dark Realm’ series.

“I have always lived in my own head. As a kid, all I did was create stories and act them out. The more magic the better. When I read Christopher Pike’s ‘The Last Vampire’ as a teen, it was all over. After that, anything that had fangs and fur had my name on it. I have lived and breathed vampires, werewolves and shapeshifters ever since.”

The Young Adult Fantasy series, DINOMORPHS, centers on fifteen-year-old, Kellen Masters and his friends who are not as human as they seem. When events beyond their control rip them from earth and drop them into the parallel world of their ancestors, they must deal with carnivorous forests, fortified cities and worst of all, those who created them; the Dino-Lords—the Annunaki. It’s a good thing Kellen and his friends have a few tricks up their sleeves, they are going to need it after all if they stand a chance of getting home. Welcome the world of the dinosaurs; welcome to the world of the Marduk.

Odin Gray’s second Young Adult series; Dark Realm, glimpses into a shadow world that lies alongside our own. Told through the eyes of seventeen-year-old gymnast, Alexandra “Alex” Sinclair. Alex has never thought of herself as anything but ordinary, even when peaking at the dark reality beyond the mirror. But as the shadows bleed across into our world, she learns there’s a secret bound tight inside her, one that proves otherwise. In order to survive, Alex much choose between light and dark, both in the guise of two love interests, if she stands a chance of finding the truth—even if that truth is the cost of her humanity. But as the darkness grows and her secret threatens to spill over into the light, her humanity will be the least of her worries. Alex has pierced the veil of shadows and looked into the dark, only those shadows have eyes…and now they see her too.”

Both series follow their protagonists as they deal with the burden of leadership, love and losses while navigating the world in which dangerous creatures not only exist in everyday life, but inside them as well. Both stories tackle the age old question ‘what is it that makes you a monster?’

Odin Gray is involved with a number of animal charities and mental health organizations, particularly supporting animal rescue efforts and raising funds for teen awareness of depression and anxiety.

Odin Gray currently lives in Melbourne, Australia, with his canine master, Odin (yes, two Odin’s in one house gets confusing). He is an avid collector of tattoos, wolf art and considers P!nk his patronus. Feel free to follow his adventures on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or subscribe to his mailing list for regular updates.

Author Bio:
John Ignatius Rigoli’s experiences as both a cradle Catholic and former US Naval officer informed his world view in a rather unexpected manner, opening his eyes to the proposition that those who seek power are the last people who should hold it. John is an unabashed social justice advocate, outspoken liberal, and a patriot – and he sees no dichotomy in this. As a talented and inquisitive amateur historian, John became interested in the stories of the earliest women in the Church, and how they have been erased. Though a work of historical fiction, The Vatican Chronicles takes its inspiration from the real women throughout history who toiled unacknowledged alongside their brothers.

The Vatican Chronicles Trilogy has encompassed six years of research and writing, and she hopes you enjoy Book 1 – The Mystery of Julia Episcopa as much as she has enjoyed writing it.
