A Better Plan by Elisa Maria Hebert  

About A Better Plan by Elisa Maria Hebert

Amelia is a quick-witted, charming, independent, widowed, ER nurse who doesn’t date. She is also a writer of stories, and a maker of endless lists to keep order in her over-the-top organized life. After her dog and a two of her coworkers suffer frostbite during an exceptionally cold, Alaskan winter, she plots to escape the harsh environment for a fresh start on life. She thinks she has the perfect plan in place, but the unexpected happens, forcing her to postpone her trip. Although Amelia feels disheartened by the wrench in her well laid out strategy, events in her story are unfolding in the most unanticipated ways. Maybe God has something in store for Amelia that she did not include in her list…

The Altered  

About The Altered

Griffin King is an ordinary high school senior dealing with typical teenage issues – a bratty little sister, overbearing parents, an obnoxious best friend, and the unrequited love of his long-time crush. But when
a virus suddenly infects a large portion of the population, Griffin soon finds himself on the opposite side of the proverbial horror story.

After months of roaming the broken landscape of the city as an infected person, a cure is found and a mass injection of antiserum is administered to the diseased, causing Griffin to become one of the ALTERED, a small group of ‘ex-infecteds’ who have been cured, but changed. Now he must learn how to
start his life anew – suppressing his need to consume human flesh, and living among an angry post-apocalyptic society where race, gender, and religion don’t matter anymore.

Welcome to the new world. A world where people like him – people altered like him – are the minority.

Desperately Ever After by Laura Kenyon  

About Desperately Ever After by Laura Kenyon

2018 Readers’ Favorite Finalist Award winner. Amazon #1 bestseller in Women’s Fantasy Fiction, Women’s Humorous Fiction, and Paranormal Fantasy. National Indie Excellence Awards finalist.

Imagine that our most beloved fairy tale princesses lived in the same time, were the best of friends, and had the dreams, dilemmas, and libidos of the modern woman. How would their stories unfold after the wedding bells stopped ringing?

Years after turning her husband from beast back to man and becoming his queen, Belle finds out she’s finally going to have a child. But before she can announce the wondrous news, she catches him cheating and watches her “happily ever after” go up in flames. Turning to her friends for the strength to land with grace, she realizes she’s not the only one at a crossroads:

– Cinderella, a mother of four drowning in royal duties, is facing her 30th birthday and questioning everything she’s done (or hasn’t) with her life.

– Rapunzel, a sex-crazed socialite and one-woman powerhouse, is on a self-destructive quest to make up for 20 years locked away in a tower.

– Penelopea, an outsider with a mother-in-law from hell, is harboring a secret that could ruin everything at any moment.

One part Sex and the City, two parts Desperate Housewives, and three parts Brothers Grimm, Desperately Ever After sprinkles women’s fiction with elements of fantasy … and asks readers to rethink everything they know about happy endings. With laughter, wine, and a brand-new take on old-fashioned chivalry, these friends see each other through life’s trials one secret at a time.

The Wayward Wizard  

About The Wayward Wizard

I’m the last person a secret government agency wants to call for help.

I spend my days selling New Age trinkets to humans and my nights drinking with a street-hustling alchemist. Not exactly the law and order type. But when monsters from our childhood nightmares become flesh and blood, snatching people from the streets, I’m one of the few wizards alive who can uncover who’s behind it.

My past threatens to catch up with me, and I’m not sure I can outrun it.

After losing my family in a fire and being whisked away by my caretaker to train at the Akashic Academy, my life was further turned upside down when I emerged from my final test to find three dead master wizards. Despite being cleared of all charges, most in my community believe I killed them.

They call me the Wayward Wizard.

I may be a black sheep among magic-users, but I deliver results. Which is why this secret agency has dragged me out of bed, slapped the bottle of whiskey out of my hand, and placed me with Alanna Reid. She’s their best (and most uptight) agent who’s been ordered to keep an eye on me and make sure I get the job done—or, put a bullet in me.

But as good as Alanna is, even she may not be prepared for what’s coming. And if I can’t shut down the mysterious wizard wielding stolen powers, then I have a demigod looking over my shoulder, salivating at the thought of bringing on the Apocalypse as punishment.

It’s like the teacher penalizing the entire class for one asshat’s actions, but on a cosmic level.

Since I like living, the choice is clear.

But something tells me that in unraveling the truth, I’ll also have to face my own monsters, which can be just as deadly.

Assassin's Choice book coverAssassin’s Choice by Monique Singleton

If they realise who I am… I’m dead

To the Council, I’m their top assassin. I terminate paranormals that step out of line. I’ll head off the hit list if they ever find out who I really am.

I’m close to finding out who’s responsible for my mother’s death, when the Council sends me on a mission,: kill two clan leaders who threaten to expose the paranormal world.
Simple, Right?
Then I meet them…and everything goes to hell.

Throw in my overheated libido, not one, but two soul-mate claims, a mysterious age-old shaman who throws me slap-bang into the center of an ancient prophecy, and things really heat up.

My next decision will send my life in a new direction… or kill me in the process.
Which will it be? Personal revenge… or save the world?

Twenty-two-year old Garnet Adams longs to marry and have a houseful of children. Forced to support her widowed mother, she embraces her role as a teacher, although the Carrie Town board of education’s rules for female teachers leave no opportunity for a social life. She contents herself playing the violin at church.
Tall, bearded, and rough around the edges, Deputy Noah Scott would rather hunt than socialize. Garnet thinks he’s a rude, insensitive drifter, and Noah’s sure the last person he’d want to court is a schoolmarm–especially with her unladylike sneeze. As the needs of her students bring them together, opposites seem to attract until a certain Christmas present derails their future.
