Losing It all by Marsha Cornelius
About Losing It all by Marsha Cornelius:
Frank Barnes is content living on the streets of Atlanta. A soup kitchen and a makeshift shanty sure beat his days as a POW in Vietnam. But Chloe Roberts can’t handle the eviction that sends her into the hell of homelessness. With no family or friends to turn to, Chloe and her children are sucked into the traumatic world of night shelters, and dangerous predators.
When they bump into each other at the soup kitchen, Frank offers Chloe a glimmer of hope that she can pull her life back together. She rekindles his lost sense of self-worth by taking his mind off his own problems. But they will not meet again until Frank is riding high as a working man, and Chloe has hit rock bottom.
By helping Chloe rebuild her broken life, Frank banishes the demons from his own past. Unfortunately, the past comes strolling back into their lives, threatening to destroy the happiness they have finally found.

Author Bio:
After working for fifteen years as a cafeteria manager in an elementary school, Marsha Cornelius turned in her non-skid shoes for a bathrobe and slippers. She now works at home, writing novels, acting out scenes with her cats, and occasionally running a Swiffer across dusty surfaces.
Like thousands of others, she thought she could write romance, but soon discovered she was a dismal failure. She did increase her repertoire of adjectives such as throbbing, pulsing, thrumming, vibrating, hammering, pumping . . .
Her debut novel, H10N1, a thriller about a flu pandemic gone awry, received 5 stars from Midwest Book Review.
The Ups and Downs of Being Dead, a story about a man who chooses to have his body cryonically-frozen rather than face death, received the Awesome Indie Award.
The AIA medallion was also awarded to her third novel, Losing It All, a drama that follows a homeless man as he helps a mother and her two small children get off the streets. Losing It All also received the BRAG Medallion, and her second 5-star rating from Midwest Book Review.
Habits Kick Back, her latest novel, tells the story of a college girl who decides to kick her drug habit, only it isn’t what you think. She wants to stop taking all the pills that control her weight, help her concentrate, keep her awake to study, improve her mood, and even suppress her sexual appetite.
All of Marsha Cornelius’ books can be found on her Amazon author’s page: http://amzn.to/SLhv6O
Originally from Indiana, Cornelius lives in the countryside north of Atlanta with her husband and two molly-coddled cats who refuse to wear socks and dust the furniture.

War to the Knife
Laredo’s defenders were ground down and its people ruthlessly slaughtered when the Bactrians invaded the planet. Overwhelmed, its Army switched to guerrilla warfare and went underground. For three years they’ve fought like demons to resist the occupiers. They’ve bled the enemy, but at fearful cost. The survivors are running out of weapons, supplies, and places to hide.
Then a young officer, Dave Carson, uncovers news that may change everything. An opportunity is coming to smash the foe harder than they’ve ever done before, both on and off the planet. Success may bring the interplanetary community to their aid – but it’ll take everything they’ve got. Win or lose, many of them will die. Failure will mean that Bactria will at last rule unopposed.
That risk won’t stop them. When you’re fighting a war to the knife, in the end you bet on the blade.

BBW: Sheila And The Doctor’s Orders By Samantha Wellshauna
About BBW: Sheila And The Doctor’s Orders By Samantha Wellshauna:
She couldn’t afford to be fired from this job. It was hard enough to find good jobs when certain types of managers looked down on her for her size. She was what the rest of society would call obese, what her doctor called someone with an, “unhealthy weight,” and to top it off, her passion was clothing and design, so of course everyone she worked with was superficial and didn’t hesitate to hurt her feelings.

No Limit by L.P. Dover
*~*~ RELEASE WEEK SPECIAL – only .99 for a limited time ~*~*
Murder. Lies. Betrayal.
I deal with those things every day. My name is Jason Avery, one of the best undercover agents in the country. I have yet to fail on a mission, which is why I’ve been sent to Vegas. Countless women have been abducted, tortured, only to show up dead in the middle of the night. It’s my job to find out which sick f*** is responsible. Unfortunately, every lead sends me to a dead end; at least, until Aylee McFadden shows up at my door.
Aylee is a stubborn, headstrong FBI agent and also one of the sexiest women I’ve ever seen with a gun. In joining me, it gives us the leverage we need to get on the inside. She fights me at every turn, but soon realizes there’s more to me than tattoos and a dirty mouth. I can’t get enough of her. Now that we’re in the game, we’re one step closer to solving the crime. However, gambling with money isn’t what the big boys want. They want the one thing I’m not willing to give.
It’s a no limit game, and if I back down I lose everything. I will lose her.

For over a year, Simon watches over Kara, but stubbornly refuses to admit his desire to possess her, not even to himself.

Author Bio:
Falling in love with literature was easy for Christine Hughes. As a child, she was a voracious reader and loved to write. When it came time to go to college at Georgian Court University, choosing a major was easy – English Literature. In 1998, with a Bachelors in English Lit strapped to her hip, she wasn’t sure which avenue to take – until she worked part time presenting life skills to elementary school children. It was in a school in Camden, NJ when she ran into a little boy – pants ripped, backpack falling apart – with his nose in a Harry Potter book. The way he obviously coveted the book made her realize I want to do that. She wanted to encourage the love of reading in others that Christine had all her life.
She went back to school and earned her teacher’s certificate and became a middle school English teacher. After nine years teaching others to appreciate literature, Christine decided to take the plunge and write her first novel, TORN – a YA paranormal re-released by Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing in August 2013. The sequel, Darkness Betrayed was released by the same publisher in September 2013 and her third novel, a stand-alone NA Contemporary, was re-released by CHBB in December 2013. Though she loved writing for the YA set, she really found her love with Three Days of Rain – writing for more mature audiences. And though she loves it, Three Days of Rain was heart wrenching to write and she found herself drawn back into romance with a fun voice. Novels like Bridget Jones’s Diary, The Devil Wears Prada and Lipstick Jungle were always fun to her. Summer days reading fun prose that wasn’t meant to save the world – that’s what she wanted to write. So she did and had more fun writing Target Practice – Operation: One-Night Stand than ever.
Christine has attended numerous book festivals such as the Baltimore Book Festival, YA Fest, the Collingswood Book Festival, BooksNJ and, most recently, the Princeton Public Library’s Local Authors Day. Additionally, she’s attended a SCBWI conference and a Writer’s Digest Conference. In 2012, she traveled to Hollywood, California to receive an award for TORN. She is planning on attending more events in the near future.
Christine currently stays home to write while her husband works and her two boys attend elementary school. Don’t bother her too much during football season – she’s either cheering on her boys or crying in her pint glass over yet another Jets loss.

Author Bio:
I am a happily married mother of two. Raised in Colorado, I was lucky enough to spend a couple of years of my life in Northern Italy. I graduated with an M.S. in math and economics from The Colorado School of Mines, and then promptly went to work on the Titan program for Lockheed Martin Astronautics.
I have to say, I worked on the more boring bits of rocketry, but the fun thing was we all got to wear shirts that said, “Actually, it is Rocket Science.” Around the same time, I began working as a part-time professor of Economics and Statistics. Some people find these subjects a little dry, but I made my classes super scintillating by dressing up on occasion as Professor Trelawney form Harry Potter and trying to forecast the future.
For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to be the next Carolyn Keene. When I was in third grade, I used to sit on the porch and read Nancy Drew in the morning, and then write my own mysteries in the afternoon. My characters in Sweet Delicious Madness are completely fictitious, but draw on people I met when I lived in Italy. For my first series I wanted to write a Cinderella story, I wanted to ask, what if a perfectly ordinary woman, flawed in many ways, messed up her life the first go around, but got a second chance to meet and fell in love with her own version of Austin’s Mr. Darcy. And what if, along the way, she met and learned from other characters who surrounded her; characters that had quirks of their own – a women with a passion for animal rescue, an Italian housemaid who talks to the dead, and a curator of a museum who intimately knows the history of the stolen antiquities market. All of these items synthetized into the making of The Sweet Delicious Madness Series.
In 2015, I am busy tying up loose ends in the fifth book in the series, tentatively titled The Knotty Bride. I am also asking myself a new question, what if Arthur Pendragon had a daughter. I look forward to releasing my newest series, Magda Pendragon: Heir to Arthur in the coming months. Oh, and for the record, I was lucky enough to meet and marry my own version of Mr. Darcy on the first go round. We live our lives in the Colorado sunshine, with an ever-changing collection of adopted dogs and cats. – See more at: http://juliesarff.com/about.html#sthash.b6sETwcM.dpuf
