Into Trouble: World of Change Book 2 by Gordon A. Long
About Into Trouble: World of Change Book 2 by Gordon A. Long:
Just as her friend Mito seems to be solving her problems, Aleria’s hopes for a solution to her own difficulties fade as her nightmares increase and her dissatisfaction with her life deepens.
A mission to obtain information leads her to a more subtle danger; is Lord Fauvé a clever rebel, or is he a very tempting solution to her search for a place in life?
But again the world she has been so sheltered from reaches out and slaps her in the face. Suffused with rage at her ultimate degredation, Aleria goes about taking her revenge with methodical skill.
Returning home, she discovers that she is even farther from the old traditional life she had always avoided. She still feels the same, but the attitudes of everyone else towards her have changed. No one knows quite how to treat her. And when social conventions threaten her friendship with Mito, Aleria decides it’s time to straighten out the whole lot of them.

About Brody: The Bang Shift:
Only $0.99 for one week only! Featured in RT Book Reviews Magazine! A National RWA Contest final!
Brody “Brutus” Jackson isn’t your average small-town mechanic. The shop where he spends his days doubles as the headquarters for the mercenary group he works with. They jokingly call themselves the Bang Shift because the government contracts they take are the less savory ones, and they’re all just shady enough to do what’s necessary to get the jobs done. As far as Brody’s concerned, it’s the perfect arrangement for a man with no memory of his past, and no hope for the future.
Under FBI protection, Alexandria Collins and her son have been in hiding for ten years. When it’s time to move again, her piece of crap car breaks down and the man giving her a tow is the biggest, hottest guy she’s ever seen. She is determined to ignore the need her long-neglected body hungers for. After all, the last man she showed interest in put a gun to her head.
Brody thinks the skittish Xan is sexy as hell, but it’s not her hot body that has him rocked to his core. He knows her from somewhere, and in his line of work, that’s a dangerous thing. Following orders have never been this hard, but when he finds out she’s his next assignment, he will protect her at all costs … even if what she needs protection from most is him.

The Pearl and the Golden Plinth
About The Pearl and the Golden Plinth:
The peaceful city of Chakoria, deep within the underwater planet of Osis, has always been protected from dark, oppressive forces by the Pearl and the Golden Plinth. But all good things must come to an end…
Lord Agon’s evil knows no bounds. As dark ruler of the city of Enzir, his gruesomely spiked claws grip the souls of a mighty kingdom. But his vast empire will forever remain incomplete until he possesses the Pearl and can absorb Chakoria into his darkness.
The young merman prince, Goibryne Galenthi, normally leads a comfortable lifestyle in the city of Chakoria, but this is about to change. Armed with only the magic in his staff and the courage in his heart, Goibryne sets out on an extraordinary quest to bring an end to Agon’s tyranny in a ferocious clash between good and evil.
Will he succeed?

Author Bio:
Bruce McQueen is the author of ‘The Pearl and the Golden Plinth’. The first draft of the book was written many many years ago and then was left on his book shelf and forgotten about. Until a few old friends started to read the book and urged Bruce to publish the book as they thoroughly enjoyed it.
Book readers have already seen a likeness to The Lord of the Rings and the Harry Potter books and films.
The cover and the book’s art content was designed by the very gifted Doaly, who works with the likes of the Marvel Film Studios.
Bruce also works closely with the National Literacy Trust, who work to improve literacy amongst both children and adults.

About Evensong by Krista Walsh:
Author Jeff Powell wakes up to find the impossible has happened. He is within his own novel—summoned into the fictional world of Feldall’s Keep by a spell he didn’t write. One the House enchantress hasn’t figured out how to reverse.
When the villain he’s been struggling to write reveals himself, unleashing waves of terror and chaos, Jeff must use more than his imagination to save the characters he created—and the woman he loves.
Trapped within a world of his own creation, he must step outside the bounds of his narrative to help his characters defeat an evil no one anticipated, even if he must sacrifice his greatest gift. In the end, he has to ask: are novels really fiction, or windows into other worlds?

The Dogs of Mexico by John J Asher
About The Dogs of Mexico by John J Asher:
In this literary noir thriller, former government agent Robert Bohnert has left the life behind—but it won’t leave him. Broken by the destruction of his family, he agrees to one last job—this time for the other side. When a “straightforward” diamond smuggling operation goes south—literally—Bohnert finds himself trekking through Mexico, pursued by a murderous entourage, including an alcoholic smuggler, a cross-dressing hit man, and a psychopathic meth addict. An unlikely love story complicates his flight when the woman who defects from his pursuers becomes the one person who might offer him salvation. The question becomes, ultimately, will they make it out of Mexico alive, and does the canister contain diamonds after all, or something unimaginably sinister? “…(K)ill a few hours enjoying the suspense and human drama.” — Publishers Weekly

About Tobacco Sticks:
A Great Summer read and a real A To Kill A Mockingbird story. Tobacco Sticks takes us back to the Southern town of Richmond in 1946. It is the story of a Senatorial campaign, the rise of the unions, and Burke Hartwell, a lawyer and civic minded man who must choose between two worlds. The war is ending and for Lee Hartwell and his family it bodes the end of something they won’t understand until it is too late.
” Explosive racial tension, betrayal and murder, difficult ethical and social decisions, first love and a dramatic denouemont in a sweaty Virginia courtroom are skillfully entwined in this haunting tale which has all the characteristics of a good summer read.” Starred Review Publishers Weekly
Book of the Month Club Selection
“The summer my brother came home from the war was so hot they had to repave the soft tar of Hermitage Street twice. I remember watching the crews, their white t-shirts glowing in the July night with the gravel smoke dancing white under a low moon. It was the last war summer and we received a telegram saying Lucas has been wounded. First we thought he had been shot in the leg, then it became the foot.”

About Failure To Stop:
Since when did the procedure for giving someone a ticket for running a stop sign include a very hands-on pat-down against the hood of my car, not even giving me a chance to see his face? I swear, cop or not he’s getting very close to getting Tasered; my hand was mere inches from the Taser in my open purse. But despite the high inappropriateness of his pat-down there was something very familiar about the way he was touching me – even the scent of his cologne triggered familiarity.
I never dreamed when the inappropriate, yet highly erotic frisking was over that I’d be standing face to face with my former high school sweetheart, town troublemaker and love of my life Devon Land. But there he was with a cocky smirk, looking sexier than I remembered and thoroughly enjoying my surprise.
One big mistake cost me the upscale life in New York I’d grown to love, forcing me to return home to Alabama. I swore I’d never move back to my small town, I’d outgrown it, but with a temptation like Devon intent on reminding me of the life I’d once left behind will I have the strength to leave a second time…

About Forever Three:
NEW RELEASE!!!
If ever there has been a story to give voice to the joy and pain of love, it’s Forever Three.
For far too long author and nice guy Dean Cassidy has lived with the misfortune of loving two women at once. Over and over his heart has been stretched, wrenched, twisted, and bruised in an emotional tug-of-war.
Dean has loved his wife, Maddy, since long before they took their vows, but after 22 years, he still can’t shake the memory of his childhood sweetheart, Theresa Wayman. And now things are getting worse. Suddenly, the torturous triangle is closing in on him like a three-sided vice.
Day after day Dean is pummeled by a dizzying, soul-numbing succession of guilt, joy, tragedy and uncertainty. He’s all but lost the will to go on. Nevertheless, the human spirit does not destruct easily. It is resilient and tenacious. And as close to going down as Dean is, he’s determined to keep swinging until the very end. The question is will it be enough?

Author Bio:
Ike Hamill writes fast-paced horror novels with strong, relatable characters. Since 2011 his books have gained a steady following amongst readers who enjoy his blend of sci-fi, paranormal, occult, and suspense. His first series, “The Hunting Tree,” became popular enough for Ike to leave his day job and focus entirely on writing. Since that series, Ike’s popularity has grown, with “Extinct” becoming his most-read book to date. In some of his books, Ike takes on the entire world. With his recent book, “Migrators,” Ike presents a story that focuses on a small family. In either setting, Ike draws compelling characters whom readers are sad to leave behind when the book is finished.
Reviewers compare Ike to Dean Koontz and Stephen King–two of his favorite authors. His narrative often jumps between interwoven stories, presenting readers with a fresh perspective and keeping them guessing until the last chapter. Join Ike’s mailing list at www.ikehamill.com and he’ll send you a free copy of his next book. Most of Ike’s readers are repeat customers. Pick up one of his books to learn why.
