May Queen by Elizabeth Rose  

About May Queen by Elizabeth Rose

A beautiful but mysterious woman arrives in the castle courtyard one night, as the baron’s replacement to Lord Ricard Wellington’s betrothed. With eyes like emeralds and a smile that could melt even a hardened warrior’s heart, Lady Flora Debenham quickly captures Ricard’s interest. However, she is feisty as well as disobedient and keeps sneaking out of the castle walls. The woods are dangerous and filled with Druids who he believes have killed his parents. Fearing for her safety, he follows her, hoping to learn her secrets.

Lady Flora takes her cousin’s place as the handsome Lord Ricard’s betrothed, but it is naught more than a ploy to get close to the Druids who are hiding nearby. Her dying mother reveals to her that her father was a Druid and that she was conceived at the festival of Beltane. The woman’s last wish was for Flora to find her father and return a sacred icon to him.

What starts out as nothing but a means to an end turns into an attraction to a man Flora never intended to marry. Ricard treats her like a queen, and she starts to fall in love. The only wedge between them is that he has vowed to hunt down and kill the same people she is trying to protect.

Will vengeance prevent the seeds of love from blooming?

Author Bio:
A. Robert Allen has published four volumes in his Slavery and Beyond series. All stand-alone novels connected only by theme. He writes historical fiction that transports readers to times and places immediately before or soon after the end of slavery. A. Robert is a long-time higher education professional and resides in New York. His first novel, Failed Moments, is a fictional account of Allen’s ancestors in 1790 during the slave revolution in what would become Haiti and later in 1863 during New York’s Draft Riots. The second volume, A Wave From Mama, immerses readers in racially charged post Civil War Brooklyn and gives an interesting look at the building of the Brooklyn Bridge. The third book in the series, Minetta Lane, takes place in 1904 in a downtown New York neighborhood that lives by an unusual race-based code. His most recent release, Living in the Middle, transports readers to perhaps the most violent and significant incident of racial violence in U.S. history, the Tulsa Race Riots of 1921.

Caught Up In Love  

About Caught Up In Love

I was chasing what I thought was a dream.

Having made a billion dollars by twenty-nine, I decided to retire.

Build a boat. Back where life started in my small town on the lake.

My days of one-night stands are hopefully behind me.

I’m ready to find the girl who has a big heart she’s willing to give away.

And I found her, but she’s tainted by her past.

Seems life has dealt her a few too many blows, and rich guys aren’t her thing.

They aren’t mine either. Ha! Looks like we have something in common.

But this girl… she’s the one. I can feel the truth of it coursing through my veins.

And if nothing else, the way she looks at me. She wants me. I’ve never been more sure of anything.

There may be a million fish in the sea, but I only see one option.

Her.

Ace Carroway and the Growling Death  

About Ace Carroway and the Growling Death

From expertly landing a fighter plane to captivating audiences with a piano solo to setting a broken bone, there’s little that mystery woman Ace Carroway can’t do. At her startup detective agency, she and her motley crew of associates await their next case.

They don’t have long to wait. Their newest mystery promenades through the door in the svelte shape of a Broadway actress. She hires them to recover her stolen painting. Straightforward?

No. The thespian is kidnapped just as a chilling, unearthly growl reverberates through the air. When the eerie snarl rips through the air again, it signals a gas attack. Again, and this time it’s murder.

It’s abundantly clear that asking questions is liable to end in death. Ace must find the painting, save the actress, and figure out what the ominous growling means, all before she gets shot full of daylight. Things look mighty grim for the maverick heroine. Can she come out on top this time?

Of course not. It’s impossible.

But then again, the impossible is what Ace Carroway does best.

This book contains: Gas grenades. Tramp steamers. Tommy guns. A 1920 Pierce-Arrow sedan. A tobacco pipe from Borneo. Clipped sentences. A lab rat. Carnivorous ants. Mrs. Figgins. Mercenaries. Lava. Clever disguises. Lies. A thick wad of folding green. Blood.

Ace Carroway and the Growling Death is fourth in the Adventures of Ace Carroway novella series. Content rating: teen.

The Shackles are Broken  

About The Shackles are Broken

This book is a self-help memoir about my life being sexually and religiously abused. I go from the negative side and the catastrophic storm it created in my life. I was told and taught that I was not good enough for our creator, and I would never be good enough. I begged HIM to show me his love, and help me understand once and for all that He cared. The night I found the strength to utter the words, “God if you love me, don’t let him get in here tonight, I was raped yet again. It told me that I was hated by God Almighty. I also go to the positive side where I can say that I walked out of that prison cell I had been in so long, and can say, “I am free, and you can be too.”

Static Black  

About Static Black

Love, death, and bewitching music. Two parallel strands of the same story.

Akado, a former soldier and pay-for-hire bouncer has recurring dreams of riding through a dark tunnel but never makes it to the other side. A fateful encounter will guide him in the right direction.

Yamii, the vocalist of an industrial rock band suffers with a mysterious mind sickness which makes him quit music. His deceased ex-lover haunts him during the season of death, until he finds himself singing again.

Set in a dark, nameless city, Static Black is a characteristically eerie exploration of destiny and spirituality.

The story is essentially a series of explanations of love, life and death, told through the experiences of various characters. Set in a dark, urban world, it is a uniquely emotive vision, written with art in mind. It will intrigue and resonate with spiritual and philosophically-minded people as well as attract those who enjoy the gothic style.

Author Bio:
I am a digital designer and illustrator who has also often written original scenarios and comics. My father introduced me to Japanese video games as a child, and growing up, this has been a strong influence in my creative style. I continue to draw inspiration from Japanese creators, particularly artists and authors.

Static Black has been an on-going project of mine for more than the past five years.
Having initially planned to create it as a graphic novel, I illustrated many of the characters from the story and even the story’s scenes, but at some point I felt that I needed a much more detailed exploration of my ideas and their inhabitants to truly complete them. Visuals are received immediately and their meanings are highly subjective, and although I wanted to create something ambiguous, it had to contain tailored messages, emotions and explanations, which could all be processed, and yet understood by different people in different ways. It was the first time I strongly felt the need to express what I had in mind in the form of a book.

I would, in the future, like to put together an art book that can go alongside the story to provide the readers with another level of understanding. Illustrations, which are emotionally charged, will nicely compliment the nature of the book, as well as the powerful atmosphere that it envisions. I have included a couple of illustrations at the start of the book, and have also illustrated the cover.



The Survivors by Angela White  

About The Survivors by Angela White

“War was uglier than we’d imagined. The Draft was reinstated, taking our men and boys. Within days, stores had nothing on the shelves; people began to starve. Hospitals closed due to lack of space and medicine. Police stopped answering calls, stopping coming to work at all. Topside production faded; communications became spotty. Then the power went off…and it didn’t come back on.”
The fall of society triggered a hard, new life where survival became the only focus. We shunned each other and the old ways, killing anyone who was different. We reverted to primitive behaviors, using the war as an excuse to commit unspeakable atrocities, and humanity slipped deeper into the abyss of possible extinction. Soon, darkness blanketed the post-apocalyptic lands with hatred and violence that seemed to have no end. The future, cold and dark, offered little hope.

Humanity’s Fate Hangs in Balance
Survival isn’t a given for anyone as mysterious forces move the pawns across a horror-filled chessboard toward a final post-apocalyptic battle that will save the survivors or bury them under nuclear ashes.

Author Bio:
Who am I…?
I published my first book in elementary-Mystery of the Missing Tabby. The school library still has it, as far as I know. That was my first real work, and writing became priceless to me over the next years. In Jr. High, I had a teacher tell our class that none of us could match the classic authors that we would be studying. We weren’t good enough. I took that to heart and turned in an A- paper with a rookie mistake that prevented me from getting the respect I wanted from that lady. I hated it that she was right. I still do. I also adore her for waking my brain to the possibility that someday I could be as good as one of the iconic writers that helped frame the world of literature. I’ll never know if she did it intentionally or if she was just stating a fact, but it worked for me. I’ve never wanted to do anything else. Thanks to that drive, the fire she finished waking, I now live off my writing and run my own publishing company. I have more than a dozen novels out and thousands of fans. I have a long way to go before future children study me in schools, but I’m still just as hot for it now as I was in that stuffy, musty classroom in 7th grade.
So, that’s who I am. I am building, and living, the American dream. Who are you and what have you done?
That’s a hard question to answer if you’re still trying to get there. I understand. Here’s some free advice: Follow your dreams, even when the world says it’s crazy. Sometimes, you’ll find a life that satisfies you more than you ever thought was possible and it has nothing to do with cash or fame. Chase that, starting right now, and the next time someone asks who you are; tell them you’re an immovable force, a wild dreamer, a hopeful comet shooting toward the goals that orbit your existence. And then lift your chin. There aren’t many of us left who want to be good at what we do. Everyone else just wants that green shit.
