About SEAL Kissed by Mia Kenney:

As an elite Navy SEAL, Reed Callahan doesn’t have time for games. He likes his women easy, uncomplicated and only for the night. Reed is tall, tan, and tatted with a gifted mouth for bedroom dirty talk and a body that shows no mercy. Until Emerson Abbott walked into his life. Sweet. Innocent. Angelic. Everything he isn’t, and he will do anything to have her under him.
Emerson may be inexperienced but she knows danger. And the sexy Navy SEAL standing in front of her is the worst kind. A mother would warn her of men like this and a father would pull out a shot gun, but she has neither. Is she strong enough to run from the only man who ever made her pulse race and her thighs clench? Or will she risk her heart, something she’s never given to anyone?
SEAL Kissed is for readers who love sexy alpha men with dirty mouths and filthy minds. This book has a HEA and does not end on a cliffhanger.

About The Magic Mines of Asharim by Pauline M Ross:

A fallen empire. A woman with dark secrets. A strange magical weapon.

The glorious Akk’asharan Empire was torn apart by treachery two hundred years ago, its water supply cut off. Now its people are enslaved and humiliated, but they have never forgotten the past, and dream of one day restoring their former greatness.

Allandra’s dreams are more immediate: how to control the powerful magical abilities that are ruining her life. After a disastrous outbreak of power, she’s desperate to escape from justice and find a place to grieve and recover. Perhaps the hidden mines of Asharim can provide a safe haven.

The mines can provide much more than that: not only a way to control her dangerous magic, but a magical weapon that might even restore the fallen empire to its rightful place. But with enemies on her trail, and powerful factions who will do anything to stop her, she will only get one chance. If she fails, the empire’s last hope will be lost forever.

From the magic mines of Asharim, no one emerges unchanged.

I live in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland with my husband, my grown up daughter and a mad cat. I like chocolate, whisky, my Kindle, massed pipe bands, long leisurely lunches, watching TV with my daughter, chocolate, going places in my campervan, eating pizza in Italy, summer nights that never get dark, wood fires in winter, chocolate, the view from the study window looking out over the Moray Firth and the Black Isle to the mountains beyond. And chocolate. I dislike driving on motorways, cooking, shopping, hospitals. The Magic Mines of Asharim is my fourth published work.

A thought provoking tale that examines how events can change life decisions in a heartbeat, Shona Forrester is determined to make her business a success. However, her carefully planned future will be turned upside down by events so bizarre, events she never could have imagined.

Rick seems to be part of the equation for a happy life, but is he? Psychic Two Moons, Medium will radically alter all her carefully laid plans.

What ifs will unfold and blossom into reality; a reality where the possibilities can be good or very, very bad. The ending will leave you wondering… what if?

“The joy of all the ‘If’ stories lies in their surprise twists. Mae is a master storyteller and an uncommon ruler of the novelette form. Midwest Book Review

“… A lot of people can relate to Shona. Trying to break out on your own and start your own business only to have everything crumble around you. Having people around you not wanting to take responsibility for their actions (especially the lying, cheating, no good soon to be ex-fiancé).”

This tale talked about the darker side of winning the lottery and what happens to a person and their relationships after they come into money. Nicely done! Readers’ Favorite

Annabel Chant has always loved writing. She lives in a village half an hour from London with her family, her dog, and a vastly over-stuffed library which no one appreciates except her. She loves collecting first editions and is guilty of having up to five copies of the same book. The advent of the ereader may yet save her from having to upsize just to house them all.
When she’s not writing, she’s reading, and when she’s doing neither, she’s probably at work – teaching writing! At the start of 2015, she had the idea for a short story, about a girl going to meet a guy called only The Filth Monger. She never finished it but, from that seed, the whole Filth Monger series developed. She hopes you’ll like it and, if you do, you’ll let her know. Annabel can often be found on Facebook, connecting with readers.

Author Bio:
John Ellsworth was a practicing attorney who defended white collar crimes and criminal investigations and prosecutions by the federal government. Tax crimes were a specialty and John appeared in court on these cases and in the audit pre-indictment stages nationwide. For many years John defended criminal cases of the usual flavor too, from shoplifting to first degree murder. He has been lead counsel on death penalty cases and has never lost a client to the execution chamber.

Today John believes in self-publication. “I wrote a script for a Hollywood movie and it bounced around the studios for three years while other people talked and discussed and opined. After three years there was still no movie, so I decided to start writing nothing but novels and to self-publish so there would be no middlemen between my writing and my readers.” The first book, a legal thriller titled The Defendants was first up to the plate. Now John has published five more legal thrillers:
1. The Defendants
2. Beyond a Reasonable Death
3. Attorney at Large
4. Chase, the Bad Baby
5. Defending Turquoise
6. The Mental Case

John writes for your enjoyment. “More than anything, I love to read a review of one of my books where someone has had a good experience because of something I created out of thin air. I love my readers and want them to love me back–through my books, of course.” Writing-reading is a two-way street, especially with readers of legal thrillers, who happen to be people who are very bright, well-read, and won’t let you get away with inaccuracies. So you better be up on your game and get it right the first time around.
