The New Mrs D  

COver-design-smallerAbout The New Mrs D:

After Shirley Valentine, after The First Wives Club and hot on the naked heels of Calendar Girls… there was The New Mrs D!

Four days into their honeymoon in Greece, Bernice and David Dando have yet to consummate their marriage and after having accepted his almost non-existent desire for sex throughout the relationship, Bernice finally discovers the reason; he is addicted to porn. Learning that the love of her life chooses the cheap thrill of fantasy over her is devastating but then, ‘every man does it; it’s just looking, right?’ If she leaves the relationship because of virtual adultery, will she be labelled as pathological, overreacting, or even worse, frigid?

When funny, feisty, forty-something Bernice plans the adventure trip of a lifetime, she doesn’t expect to be spending it alone. But as it turns out, unintentionally contributing to a Greek fish explosion, nude karaoke and hilarious misadventures with volcanoes are exactly what she needs to stop fretting about errant husbands and really start living. But when Mr D tries to win her back, Bernice has a decision to make: is this a holiday from her humdrum life, or the start of a whole new adventure?

“The New Mrs D is a refreshing, sharp-witted and empowering romp.”

Author Bio:
Heather Hill – comedy writer and mum of five (not the band) lives in Scotland and is one of a rare kind; the rare kind being one of the 0.5% of females that is ever-so-slightly colour blind. She is known to have been prevented from leaving the house with blue eyebrows on at least one occasion. After a humble beginning tweeting random comedy musings on Twitter, Heather realised she could make people laugh (well, at least two). So she began writing a comedy blog, which opened with an audience of one (thank you Mr Hill) and to date has over 10,000 subscribers. This led Heather to write her hilarious debut novel, ‘The New Mrs D’, which has been downloaded over 32,000 times to date.

The_coming_of_dark._Cover_for_KindleAbout The coming of dark:

Detective Troy Dance is attacked and nearly killed when he inadvertently films a murder.

Troy dreams of a time when as a boy his closest friend committed suicide. The dream is disturbing and doesn’t make sense.

While in a coma something invisible moves about his hospital room.

Troy wakes to find that he is a paraplegic. He does not deal with the news well. He feels that his life is over. His career is finished and he feels useless. It is not long after going home that he begins to believe that his wife, Trina, will soon cheat on him. He feels powerless to stop her until he discovers a supernatural power inside himself.

Trina Dance, having been confined to the basement by Troy, wakes one night to see a young girl outside her bedroom door bleeding profusely. She turns to call up to Troy. When she turns back the girl is gone.

The man responsible for Troy being paralyzed is attacked and killed by a young boy wielding a very large knife. Afterward, the boy simply vanishes.

Tommy Waters, Troy’s former partner and close friend, discovers some disturbing news about Troy’s past. Confronting Troy, however, is a bad mistake that leaves himself and Trina fighting for their very life against forces that they don’t understand.

Later my interest evolved to works produces by authors such as Dean Koontz, Stephen King, Michael Crighton and many more.

I would love to write in a variety of genres. The coming of dark is a combination of mystery, thriller, ghost story and horror.

The Pitcher  

ThePitcher_william-Hazelgrove.jpg2About The Pitcher:

Movie Rights Sold to Gigantic Pictures

#1 Amazon Bestseller in Contemporary Urban Fiction
#1 Amazon Bestseller in Teen and Young Adult Sports Fiction

“William Hazelgrove has fashioned a near classic baseball story.”
San Francisco Review of Books

“With tense moments, unexpected twists, and a few humorous and joyful reprieves, Hazelgrove’s writing reflects the dramatic arc of a baseball game.”
Junior Library Guild

“You can taste the ballpark dust, feel the smack of the ball in your glove, and feel assured that, somehow, these three strongly drawn characters will push on to victory.”
Booklist

A boy with a golden arm, but no money for lessons. A mother who wants to give her son his dream before she dies. A broken down World Series pitcher who cannot go on after the death of his wife. These are the elements of The Pitcher. A story of a man at the end of his dream and a boy whose dream is to make his high school baseball team. In the tradition of The Natural and The Field of Dreams, this is a mythic story about how a man and a boy meet in the crossroads of their life and find a way to go on. You will laugh and you will cry as The Pitcher and Ricky prepare for the ultimate try out of life.

Colorado Hope by Charlene Whitman  

Colorado-Hope-315About Colorado Hope by Charlene Whitman:

1875 ~ Beset by a sudden spring storm on the Front Range, newlywed Grace Cunningham watches in horror as her husband, Monty, is swept downriver. Pregnant and despairing, she stumbles into Fort Collins and tries to make a life for herself, praying that one day the man she loves will walk into town and back into her life.
Montgomery Cunningham wakens on the bank of a river with no recollection of who he is or how he got the gash on his head. A woman named Stella, who claims to be his fiancée, nurses him back to health. Plagued by images of a faceless woman who he is certain is the key to his past, Monty concedes to Stella’s pressure to marry him and move to Fort Collins, but he quickly regrets his actions.
A year after Grace’s tragic loss, Monty walks into the dress shop where she works—with a woman on his arm. Shocked that Monty has no recollection of her, Grace is determined to win back his heart. Somehow she must help him regain his memories and his buried love for her—and not just for her sake but for the sake of their infant son, Ben.
Monty, miserable in his marriage to a woman he hardly knows, is inexplicably drawn to Grace. Every time he’s near her, memories surface, but they are hazy and troubling. He’s torn between his vows and the desires of his heart, for he cannot stay away from Grace.
Grace’s hope is sparked when Monty starts recalling glimpses of his past. But when murderous outlaws come to town, she is thrust into grave danger. Monty risks his life to rescue her, only to face even greater perils in the treacherous mountains. Can she truly hang on to hope when she is about to lose all she loves?

Red Moon  

Red-Moon-by-Jack-GoodwindAbout Red Moon:

The Moon, our Moon.

Something that has always moved mankind’s imagination. Sometimes connected with divinity and mythology, even achievement as for the NASA missions, other times with curses and fear.

Something that once again will bring mankind to a disconcerting discovery.

For Major Joe Evans, life will never be the same.

For the rest of us, the new threat will remain secret.

Red Moon is the first episode in Line of Blood: The Seeker, and the first step into the Line of Blood world. Take the step…if you dare…

Author Bio:
Jack Goodwind was born on the troubled island of Sicily, a place full of ancient treasures as well as modern contradictions. He has done many things throughout his life including, running the family’s furniture shop in his hometown, traveling around Europe as a sales agent, managing an insurance agency in a small town, and becoming an Internet Marketing specialist.

He is a sailor. He served his country both in the Navy and the Army. He has seen the amazing and the horrible. He sailed several Maxi Cups in Porto Cervo among the wealthiest and most unimaginable luxury, and he saw the horrors and the atrocity of the war first hand.

Everything he has done has made him who he is today, the same person as when he started, and a completely new person that his life has taught him to be.

Now, he has become a writer, because there are too many things he wants to say, too many things he needs to share. His first novel in the Line of Blood Saga, Ancient Truth, despite its obvious references to the worlds of Sci-Fi and Fantasy, is actually a journey inside something impalpable, yet very real; the human soul. We are not “part of the picture,” we are masters, keepers, lords of this universe. Our right is to choose, our responsibility is to do it wisely. This is the ultimate gift the supreme Intelligence gave us, this is why and what we are. The point, his point, is to not pretend to have all the answers, it is simply to have the will to look for them.
