Author Bio:
My husband and I are the proud parents of one daughter who now has two beautiful children of her own. We were married for 44 amazing years before he passed away in August of 2014.

I have an entrepreneurial heart. Truly, though I have worked for others in the past, I can’t imagine doing so now. My previous entrepreneurial enterprises include multi-level marketing and being the Owner/CEO of a staffing company with five offices, 3 divisions, and in 2 states. After 12.5 years in business, my staffing company failed following the financial crash of 2008. I was absolutely crushed.

Following the emotional and financial loss of closing my business, I spent the next two years doing primarily missionary and service work. This was a truly rewarding time and helped me heal.

Helping others recognize and achieve their potential is one of my lifelong passions. I do this through Mars Venus Coaching and writing self-help books primarily to benefit couples. My interviews with couples around the world about the success of their marriage provides the foundation some of these books. Over the course of the last year I have shared their stories on my blog, reginaatthelake.com. One of my reader’s calls these love stories her “guilty pleasure”.



Alien General’s Beloved by Vi Voxley  

AlienGeneralsBeloved-v05About Alien General’s Beloved by Vi Voxley

Lana Cormac is a woman with a mission. As the captain of a scouting vessel for the Galactic Union, the curvy woman has always put her crew first and herself second. But when two men more myth than reality bursts into her life, she needs to step back and wonder whether she’s been doing things the wrong way all along. Stuck between two Brion generals, both convinced that she can be his and only his, Lana needs to walk a tightrope between keeping a fleet of innocent people alive while subsequently coming to grips with what fate has in store for her.

Could it truly be a Brion general and if so, couldn’t he have picked a less horrible time to show up!?

Corden is a Brion general unlike any other. He is the guardian, the keeper of order for all of the generals, though there are few who know this. Defeat is not a word he recognizes, yet when something out of the darkness of Brion culture comes back to haunt him, even Corden needs to consider the option. But what he isn’t prepared for is that his greatest enemy might come from within, even when the worst nightmare he could imagine is staring him in the eye.

With Lana’s heart and safety on the line, Corden has no option but to win. Even the psychotic fervor of a general long thought dead and gone cannot stand in his way, especially when the man wants to claim Corden’s chosen!

Will Lana learn to consider the needs of her own heart and will Corden save not only her and the universe, but himself as well?

A-Second-in-EternityAbout A Second in Eternity by Gary L Wimmer

A Second in Eternity is the true story about the author’s ‘near-death’ experience and what led up to it. As his intuitive abilities begin escalating, he found himself able to see future events at will and with uncanny clarity. After a week of vacillating between indescribable euphoria and debilitating fear, as a pedestrian he was hit head-on by a speeding car. The author then describes how he instantly left his body, experienced ecstasy beyond description, and returned to his body unharmed–but as a changed person. Police, paramedics, doctors, and friends were baffled, while the author was elated by what he experienced during his voyage to the Source and back. Full of mystery, wit and spiritual insights, A Second in Eternity is a fast moving and thought provoking story that leads the reader through the realities possible when the wall that separates our conscious and subconscious minds dissipates to reveal the Unity that underlies all things.

The Coconut Swindle  

Screen-Shot-2016-02-10-at-4.36.37-PMAbout The Coconut Swindle:

In this exciting prequel to the critically acclaimed Dane Curse, a pair of black capes are found dead on the floor of Wentorf Hall, mere inches away from the world’s largest diamond. Of course the cops think the pair killed each other over the heist. After all, everyone knows that the Vandenberg Coconut is a one size fits all motivation for murder. Everyone, that is, except for Dane Curse.

But when the former villain turned PI takes the case he’ll discover that the truth has more sides than a diamond has facets. And in order to get to it Dane will follow a trail that leads through an old enemy with a bagful of grudges, a killer who specializes in assassinating super villains, and a wealthy socialite with a murky motive. A thorny maze indeed, and sitting at its heart, mysteriously returned from years in hiding, is Dane’s very own daughter.

Will Dane Curse discover the thieves’ secret in time to solve the case, save his agency, and protect his only child from a vicious death? Or will he lose it all, just another victim of The Coconut Swindle?

In this follow up to the critically acclaimed Dane Curse, Matt Abraham, winner of Pulp Detective’s 2015 Newcomer of the Year Award, takes us on our second trip through Gold Coast City. It’s Dane’s very first case, the one that made the agency, but almost broke the man. If you like white knuckled action, devious dames, and heroic villains then get your copy today, and saddle up with the most exciting detective since Harry Dresden!

I spend most of my waking hours writing fantasy and science fiction books. My novels are all set in fantastic worlds, inhabited by strong heroines and sharp-witted heroes. To confuse things, I also write adventure travel books set firmly on planet Earth. Weird, I know, but it makes me tick.

Finding Shawn by Phil Marcello  

fs78876740728_nAbout Finding Shawn by Phil Marcello:

Shawn and Alex have been friends since first grade.

Alex, the rock star quarterback, appears to be basking in the limelight of his success and his new romance with Pam. But appearances can be deceiving.

Shawn is the key man in the football team’s solid defense. He’s also the senior class’ most eligible bachelor. But Shawn has no time to get involved with a girl—at least, that’s what he tells his friends.

In reality, he does have a love interest… Tony Valito.

Side-by-side, the relationships between the two couples blossom. One in the open. The other in secret. That is, until Shawn’s world erupts when the rumor that he’s gay gathers momentum.

In trying to find Shawn, perhaps his friends will end up finding themselves. And everyone will discover how dangerous are the lives of high school athletes.

Author Bio:
I started writing as a boy in the sixties. Growing up in the projects isn’t easy, but reading and writing were healthy vices that I picked up. I eventually gave it up for friends, sports and a career in networking. For over twenty years, I have developed training courses and written hundreds of technical documents. Over those years, I also started and never finished over a dozen stories. I just never seemed to have the time or focus to complete them. Fortunately, I saved them all and now I have the time and desire to complete these works. I know it will takes years, but I intend to complete and publish all of them, even if that means self-publishing. I enjoy writing. It’s my art form and I want to create as many pieces as I can.

I also wanted to put my extensive knowledge of dog issues into print. I’ve owned dogs for some forty straight years, helped my sister Joanne with her boarding and breeding kennel for decades, and assisted with several litters of championship puppies.

Now in my senior years, the writing-for-fun bug has returned. Over the past five years, I wrote up a storm but never thought about trying to get anything published. But then, one day, while talking with my brother Richard, we decided to work together and begin publishing some of our material. But, as anyone who has tried to get published knows, if you haven’t published something, no one wants to talk to you. So we began compiling our short stories for self-publication.

Finding Shawn is my first published book, published by Wayward Ink. To them I am very grateful.

Alice in Monologue Land by Amy Gettinger  

Alice-cover-reducedAbout Alice in Monologue Land by Amy Gettinger:

Practice your snort laugh. Alice Chalmers, single mom, struggling to make ends meet with three teaching jobs, is coerced into speaking at a modern women’s literary event. Come on. Seriously? Reading a poem about female body parts aloud?–on stage?–at work? The mere idea brings on hot flashes, until her kids grab the script and hoot like a pack of monkeys. She might laugh, too, if her students were not slowly disappearing and three odd suitors were not chasing her around. From page one, Alice’s life becomes more chaotic, romantic, and dangerous as she searches for the missing students. From treachery in dark campus parking lots, to students who are more than they seem, to pythons giving “hugs,” to some wild skydives, Alice’s life is literally in free fall. Dianne Bylo of Tome Tender Blog says: “A fun-loving read. … hang on tight. This tale has more spins than a tilt-a-whirl!”

The Kindle version of this book will be available for free download from 3/21/2016 to 3/25/2016

When he’s fired from his Wall Street IT job, Borden Duffield is certain things couldn’t possibly get much worse. But then, after his air guitar antics make him the star of a viral video, a call from his doctor brings even more cause for concern.

Suddenly, Borden is unemployed, overwhelmed, and facing the reality that he might not live another year. But when fate guides him to an Indian cooking demonstration, he suddenly sees hope in the form of the world’s most valuable spice—the little purple flowers of the saffron plant.

Joined by his wife Helen and his best friend Hill, Borden does everything he can to set his new idea in motion—including firing paintballs at local speeders and experimenting with “liquid ass.” Their destination? Amish country, Pennsylvania, where they’ll learn the secrets of growing saffron and begin gathering intel for their hopefully lucrative operation.

But when a clandestine group of criminals begins enacting its own dastardly plan, Borden could be out of luck yet again—and it’s not long before the group’s moneymaking venture transforms into a high-tech international caper

Repeating History by M.M. Justus  

Repeating-History-coverAbout Repeating History by M.M. Justus:

One moment in 1959 Chuck McManis strolls the geyser boardwalks at Yellowstone, and the next an earthquake plunges him back more than eighty years into the wilderness and his family’s past – to become the great-grandfather he’d idolized all his life.

Nobody told Chuck that the stories about his hero were utter fabrications. That he’d need instructions for sheer survival. Or lessons in escaping from Indians. He won’t abandon Eliza Byrne, who saves his life.

By the time they struggle back to civilization, 1870s style, Chuck has discovered courage and competence he never knew he possessed. Then comes the risk, and the opportunity, to fulfill the legacy he’d left for himself, and he must face decisions that could cause him to lose not only his own life, and Eliza’s, but to kill those he loved in his future before they ever have a chance to live.

Author Bio:
My first visit to Yellowstone National Park was at age four. I’m told it snowed on us on the Fourth of July while we were there. I spent most of my childhood summers in the back seat of a car, traveling with my parents to almost every national park west of the Mississippi and a great many places in between.

I have a bachelor’s degree in British and American literature and
history, a master’s degree in library science, and a certificate
in museum studies. I was a reference librarian, aka a professional dilettante, for sixteen years. I have also worked as an independent museum curator and exhibit designer.

Other things I love include quilting, gardening, meteorology, and the travel bug I inherited from my father, including multiple trips back to my favorite Grand Geyser and the rest of Yellowstone. I live on the rainy side of the Cascade mountains within easy reach of my other favorite national park, Mt. Rainier.
