Breaking Fate by Georgia Lyn Hunter  

BFsept8-smaller-imageAbout Breaking Fate by Georgia Lyn Hunter:

An immortal without a soul is bad enough. But when his only tether to remaining honorable is his addiction to bone-crushing pain, it makes Blaéz a dangerously loose cannon.

A Guardian sworn to protect mortals from supernatural evil, Blaéz straddles the edge of darkness as his needs grow. When a good deed brings him to the doorstep of a female unlike any other, one whose touch ignites emotions long lost in the hellish pits of Tartarus, he’s determined not to lose her. She belongs to him. But she’s human. Forbidden. And bringing her into his life may just destroy them both.

Darci Callahan has given up on love. But when a lethally handsome stranger suddenly appears late one night, she finds herself inexplicably drawn to the captivating man with the pale, empty eyes—a man who awakens in her a desire she never believed possible. Except Blaéz brings more than unexpected passion to her life, he brings danger.

In this treacherous new world of gods and demons, Darci soon discovers a heart-shattering truth and the twisted games the gods play. Caught in the crosshairs, she’s forced to accept that, sometimes, no matter how much you love someone, you have to love them enough to let them go…

Author Bio:
I C Camilleri lives in the UK. Her first novel, The Blake Curse was published in March 2012. A year later it was nominated for The People’s Book Prize UK, a national competition voted for by the public. After a three month vote The Blake Curse became one of the three finalists in the Summer 2013 Collection.

Her next two novels, The Blake Soul and The Blake Mistake were published in 2013. Each book in the Blake series could be read as a stand-alone. Suggested chronological order of reading;
THE BLAKE SOUL
THE BLAKE CURSE
THE BLAKE MISTAKE
THE BLAKE LEGACY

The Blake books are supernatural thrillers with a dash of romance. That thread of moral fibre is weaved inside each novel:
-The sanctity of human life is highlighted in The Blake Soul
-The susceptible young mind lost to alcohol and drugs features in The Blake Curse
-The detrimental effect of childhood psychological trauma features in The Blake Mistake.
-The Blake Legacy: A Fracture in Time is all about peer pressure, intimidation and that desperate search for an exquisite type of pure love, a love untainted by monetary gains or sexual intentions, a love for the sake of love itself.

Must Love Breeches  

AngelaQuarles_MustLoveBreeches_400pxAbout Must Love Breeches:

She’s finally met the man of her dreams. Only one problem: he lives in a different century.

“A fresh, charming new voice” – New York Times bestselling author Tessa Dare about this time travel romance

HOW FAR WOULD YOU TRAVEL FOR LOVE?

A mysterious artifact zaps Isabelle Rochon to pre-Victorian England, and suddenly her love of historical authenticity collides with the reality that she’s a modern-day girl. But when a thief steals her card case, she determines to retrieve the time-traveling artifact. Now she must hunt down the case, navigate the pitfalls of stiff society London, conceal her origins, and resist her growing attraction to Lord Montagu, a viscount so hot, he curls her shower-loving toes.

Lord Montagu is resolved to avenge his sister and has no time for dalliances, despite the appeal of the strange but lovely Colonial. However, when his scheme for revenge requires a respectable match,  he convinces Isabelle to masquerade as his fiancée. But he did not bargain for Ms. Rochon being his intellectual match or her irresistible allure.

Isabelle thought all she wanted was to return home, but as passion flares between them, she must decide when her true home, and her heart, lies.

Set in 1834 London, this time travel historical romance features a small cast of historical characters, including Ada Byron, Lord Byron’s daughter, and Charles Babbage, inventor of the Difference Engine. It explores the often overlooked scientific developments of pre-Victorian London.

With a heroine caught between the Regency and Victorian eras, find out why USAToday calls this time travel romance “a delicious twist on historical drama and romance.”

Addicted To Dimes (Confessions of a Liar and a Cheat) by Author Catherine Townsend-Lyon  

addictedAbout Addicted To Dimes (Confessions of a Liar and a Cheat) by Author Catherine Townsend-Lyon:

How does a good girl go bad? Based on a true story, told in the author’s own words, without polish or prose, a haunting tale of gambling addiction, dark family secrets, abuse, childhood trauma, destruction, crime and…. recovery! Sharing hope one day at a time, one book at a time, one page at a time. Learn of this remarkable story and a woman brave enough to share it with the world.

Media reviewer ~ “It was amazing how similar our stories are. The only difference is that I am a recovering drug addict.”

But we went through the same trial and tribulations. Childhood traumas, deaths, feelings of hopelessness and more. If you are suffering from any type of addiction? You should read this book.

I believe it could help addicts understand what they are going through and that there is help out there. And most importantly, you are not alone. With the help of others suffering the same way you are, it’s much easier than doing it alone. And even if you don’t have any type of addictive behavior. This book might help you understand what a suffering addict goes through.

It will make people use less judgement and have a little more compassion and empathy for people like us, the work we put in to recover and reclaim our lives back. Not that we want our behavior condoned. We just want to be a little more understood. Catherine did a great job with her writing and explaining all they cycles, habits and behaviors that a person goes through with addiction. Thank you for writing this book!

Husband and wife stand on opposite sides of a divide created by lies and rooted in a dark and deadly past…

As a teenager, Jill Shannon fell victim to her stepfather’s cruel abuse. Now as an adult, Jill’s made it – she has a successful career and a solid, if not static, marriage to Detective Alex Shannon. Together they live out what seems to be a perfect life in Seattle.

The vow she made as a teenager to never again be a victim lies dormant – until one day a reporter lures her to his hotel room under the pretense of an interview – and suddenly all of it comes rushing back. Jill seeks revenge on the reporter, triggering a series of events that leads Jill down a wormhole of retribution, forcing her to spin an ever-widening web of lies.

The Rosetta Man  

therosettaman-270x417-c081About The Rosetta Man:

Wanted: Translator for first contact. Immediate opening. Danger pay allowance

Estlin Hume lives in Twin Butte, Alberta surrounded by a horde of affectionate squirrels. His involuntary squirrel-attracting talent leaves him evicted, expelled, fired and near penniless until two aliens arrive and adopt him as their translator. Yanked around the world at the center of the first contact crisis, Estlin finds his new employers incomprehensible. As he faces the ultimate language barrier, unsympathetic military forces converging in the South Pacific keep threatening to shoot the messenger. The question on everyone’s mind is why are the aliens here? But Estlin’s starting to think we’ll happily blow ourselves up in the process of finding that out.

“What makes The Rosetta Man stand-out? An unusually dense squirrel population for sci-fi. It’s light-hearted, accessible sci-fi with exotic present day settings and a pair of aliens who are focused on observing the revealing chaos their visit creates.” – Claire McCague, author

For Rovann, a loyal mage haunted by his failures, salvation might be found in the unthinkable: defying the very king he swore to protect. If they are to succeed they must form an unlikely alliance. For someone must stand against the Songmaker. Someone must save Amaury from his dark designs. But first, they’ll have to learn to trust each other.

Cat a Pillar of the New World by Everett R. Lake  

CATAPILLAROFTHENEWWORLD1About Cat a Pillar of the New World by Everett R. Lake:

Free from 10/30/2015 through 11/02/2015

A family friendly read for ages 8 to 88.

If you’re looking for an adventurous escape, this story is for you. Within these pages you’ll journey through the South American jungle along with some of Mother Nature’s own little miracles, and experience situations that are unique and could only happen to the animals and insects that call this place their home.
Chapter one is the first day of Cat’s life, a caterpillar with special abilities that change each time he molts. Each subsequent chapter is a new day. You will discover that the story, as well as Cat, matures rapidly after the first few pages.
His wondrous exploits begin early in the story and become more thrilling as it progresses. Even on his first day of life he helps to fend-off a ravenous horde of carnivorous ants to save his newest ant friends’ colony. So, don’t let the mild beginnings lull you into a false sense of safety; the dangers in the jungle are many, and Cat must face each one with quick thinking and a courageous heart.
For those of you who might need more to whet your appetite, I’ve included the following.

I’ve kept this synopsis short, so as not to list any major spoilers. The following is just a taste of what’s in store for the courageous readers that dare to enter the deep ancient South American jungle with Cat. For those of you who really enjoy the surprises of a new story, you may want to stop reading this synopsis here, and continue straight to the book. For all others, please read on.

Cat’s special abilities include: toxins on his skin to dissuade any mouths wanting to eat him; he can glow a dim or bright yellow to light his way through the darkness; he can direct his light into a beam, like a flashlight; and he can pulse an ultra-bright light to temporarily blind any attacker. He can also use his silk to: swing from bush to bush; weave out a paraglider; bandage a wounded dire wolf; weave out a siphoning hose; weave out a tent to protect himself and his friends from would be assassin flies; create a sticky ground barrier to help defend his friends ant colony, and many more useful little tricks.
Cat makes lots of new friends in his jungle adventures. Adem, Anet and Tina are his leaf cutter ant friends. He spends lots of time with them exploring the rainforest and encountering the dangers of jungle life.
Some of his other friends include: a pack of ancient dire wolves; some golden lion tamarin monkeys; a flock of rainbow macaws; a trio of frogs; a salamander; and an earthworm with an Aussie accent.
The villains are: a saber toothed tiger; a jaguar; a hawk; a couple of harpy eagles; an anteater; a predator fish; a tarantula; a swarm of phorid flies; carnivorous ants, and what maybe invading humans, just to name a few of the baddies that they cross paths with.
Some of their adventures include: rafting a creek; paragliding; flying on the back of a macaw; running from flood waters; exploring a cave system and discovering natural crystalline formations; exploring ancient aztec/mayan ruins; and discovering what might be ancient treasure glittering at the bottom of a pit.
You will not be disappointed if you choose to venture into the heart pounding pages of Cat’s adventures, where every new day is a mystery just waiting for you.
Now, on to the adventure!

Thank you for reading!
Everett R. Lake

P.S. If you enjoy reading this book, please consider posting a review on Amazon. It would be a tremendous help to me in my efforts to continue Cat’s adventures. Book two is already in the works and we’ll need any support you can give.

About the author,

Everett R. Lake was born in Manchester, New Hampshire, and brought to Phoenix, Arizona, when he was one year old. The Phoenix valley is where he has spent most of his life. After graduating from Glendale High School he acquired an associate’s degree in architectural drafting and went on to do odd jobs, never being able to settle on a career. Spent three months camping above the Arctic Circle in Alaska’s deep country, where he was privileged to watch many wild animals roaming free across this beautiful land. Enjoys hunting for antiques at flea markets and swap meets. Loves hiking in nature; whether the deserts and forests in Arizona or the forests and tundra of Alaska, he is more at home on the trails than in the city.
Major goals in life are to become a successful author and to live along the tropical coast of South America for part of the year and to be a nomad in Europe for the remainder. Absorbing the many varied traditions of old cultures throughout Europe would be one of his dreams come true.

“Better?” A feather touch slid down her cheek. “Come on. Let’s get out of this wind before we end up in Saratoga.”
Her heart leapt when he tucked her close to his side.
My knight’s back.

“Set in rugged, sparsely populated Wyoming, TO SOAR ON EAGLE’S WINGS is a breath of fresh air for the city-dweller. The ideal blend of romance and suspense, it is a sweet story of love and dependence on God for safety, strength, and guidance.” —April W Gardner, author and editor

Author Bio:
Catherine Hudson is an author of darker non-traditional dramatic Georgian Historical Romances and the occasional Georgian Historical Horror / Mystery. There may be a time, actually there will be a time when her work will ‘waltz’ into the Regency Period as well.

Her love affair for the Georgian and Regency period came from reading Jane Austen when she was 15 years old. Although Emma was her first Jane Austen novel, her favourite is Pride and Prejudice. Then again most people’s love affair for that period comes from reading Jane Austen. From reading Jane Austen she became fascinated with the 1700’s and early 1800’s. It is a period of revolution, invention and utter madness.

Catherine adores the 18th century and early 19th century and hopes one day to step into a time machine and travel back to Bath in the 1780’s

To Hell I Must Go by Rod Sadler  

book-cover-jpgAbout To Hell I Must Go by Rod Sadler:

Alfred Haney had suspected there was something peculiar about his wife for a very long time. On a cool spring morning in 1897, he left his Williamston, Michigan home to earn a day’s wage. He returned to find his mother’s headless body set ablaze in the kitchen, with her head set neatly on a plate adorned with a knife and fork on either side. This is the true story of a macabre 19th century murder in a small Midwest town, the five days that followed, and of a woman who some might refer to as Michigan’s own Lizzie Borden.

Author Bio:
Rod Sadler is a retired veteran law enforcement officer, having served over thirty years. Early in his career, he was doing genealogical research about his great, great grandfather John Jacob Rehle, who had served as the local sheriff at the time, when he discovered a news article from 1897 describing a macabre beheading in the small town where he had spent his childhood. Over the following several years, he continually researched the murder while collecting photos of various places depicted in his research. After his retirement in 2012, he began writing the story of the grisly murder, and the five days that followed. His intricate research offers a glimpse into the mind of an insane woman, and Nineteenth century law enforcement. Rod and his wife Terri have three sons and live in the Mid-Michigan area. He has already started researching his next book, which he hopes to have published by late 2016.

Vagabonds-On-the-RunAbout On the Run (Vagabonds #1) by Jade C. Jamison:

What if your dream became a nightmare?

Kyle Summers enjoys a carefree childhood traveling the countryside with her parents…until she discovers the electric guitar. When she first wraps her hand around its neck, she knows she was born to play it.

When she discovers boys, she realizes she has a second passion.

But music always comes first, and when Kyle is recruited to be part of a young all-girl band, she jumps at her chance for fame and fortune. It isn’t long before Kyle discovers that all that glitters isn’t gold. Will she survive when she discovers the dark and seedy side of the music industry—or will it ruin her for good?

Vagabonds follows one young woman’s rise to fame past the pitfalls of sex, drugs, and easy money, through fortune and success to heartbreak and betrayal. Five girls build their band The Vagabonds from nothing but a hunger to create and quickly find that they are nothing but pawns in a larger game played by managers, agents, the press, the music industry, and all manner of unscrupulous, greedy people who want to feed on their triumphs. Friendships and lives hang in the balance. Who will survive?

Author Bio:
For years, Jade C. Jamison tried really hard to write what she thought was more “literary” fiction, but she found herself compelled to write what you read by her today–sometimes gritty, raw, realistic stories and other times humorous, light tales–but most of the stories she writes revolve around relationships and characters finding their way through life. While she doesn’t confine herself to just one genre, nor is there a nice neat label for what she writes, most of her work could be called erotic romance. Her main writing passions include rock star romance, romantic comedy, and romantic suspense.

She lives in Colorado with her husband and four children.

She loves reading and music, music and reading…oh, and the outdoors. Not necessarily in that order.
