Melanie:
Forty-six thousand for tuition? Where was I going to come up with that kind of money?

I started dancing … for dollars, that is, at the Donkey Club.

Trust me, it wasn’t something I wanted to do. But a girl’s gotta eat, right?

So it paid the bills until Saxon and Stryke came calling. Our parents got married and I agreed to work for my handsome, devastating steps, effective immediately.

But what was I thinking? Being in such close quarters with them made me tremble and shiver deep inside … because I didn’t realize they’d be so HUGE!

Pages in the Wind by Sally Saylor De Smet  

cover-copy2About Pages in the Wind by Sally Saylor De Smet:

After the brutal murder of her father, Emily Quinn finds herself detained at the San Francisco County Jail, charged with first-degree murder for a crime she cannot remember.

Emily’s mother, a wealthy socialite, quickly distances herself from her troubled daughter, but in an attempt to salvage the family name, hires world-renowned psychiatrist, Daniel Lieberman, to assist in Emily’s defense. The famed doctor, an aging, lonely psychiatrist with an addiction to sugar, caffeine, and understanding the human mind, quickly becomes sympathetic to Emily and her tortured childhood.

Together, Lieberman and Emily explore the frightening and twisted world of her damaged psyche, uncovering the complex reasons behind the young woman’s self-hatred and disconnected self-image.

They develop an abiding partnership, weaving through unexpected revelations and disturbing secrets. Of particular interest to the doctor is Emily’s strange attachment to the imaginary girls she sketches—and is driven to personify.

The secrets hidden in Emily’s mind could help with her defense—or confirm the death penalty case against her. But Lieberman senses other secrets hide within the patient’s mind, particularly the events surrounding the unexplained death of her twin sister, Penelope.

A gripping, twisting tale of psychological intrigue, Pages in the Wind enters the mostly uncharted realm of the human mind, seeking truth buried deep within Emily’s subconscious. Lieberman can help her uncover her past, but Emily is the one who has to face it—or remain damaged forever.

Sam Berretti was born and raised in the High Plains city of Lubbock, Texas. Cotton was king and oil wells and cattle were always close by. The land was as flat as his mother’s tattered ironing board and Spring was always ushered in with dust storms, tumble weeds and tornadoes. Sam moved to Florida to attend the University of Florida, met a woman who he says was gracious enough to allow him to marry her and raised two amazing children. Sam is an avid naturalist and photographer as well as an author. Although writing started at an early age and took many forms, mystery fiction has always been a favorite.

Author Bio:
Dr. Sharon A. Mitchell has worked as teacher, counselor, psychologist and consultant for several decades. Her Masters and Ph.D. degrees focussed on autism spectrum disorders and helping kids to reach as high a level of independence as possible.

In a March 2014 announcement, the Centers for Disease control released their latest statistics on autism. One in sixty-eight American children has an autism spectrum disorder and one in every forty-two boys. Every teacher will have a child with autism in their classroom. Every coach will meet a child with autism. If autism has not touched your family, it will affect your friends or neighbours.

When parents, especially mothers, receive the news that their child has autism, they spend countless hours researching the subject, usually at night, after an exhausting day. There is a lot of information out there, much of it by competent authorities. But after a hard day of work and family responsibilities, who wants to read a textbook?

Writers are admonished to show, don’t tell. Kids with autism learn best when shown rather than “talked at”. Why not write a book that shows how a family and a school help a little boy with autism? Does a book have to be hard slugging for the reader to learn new things? Does learning have to be tedious? What if you could just read a good story and still gain ideas to try?

So, the novel “Autism Goes to School” was born – a light read aimed at a general audience. Yes, life with autism has it’s struggles, but there are strengths as well and the fun parts that any family experiences. The book’s full of the challenges inherent in autism plus strategies that make life easier for all concerned. It’s a story about a single dad doing the best he can.

Autism Runs Away will be published in June, 2016. Join the kids and staff of Madson School as they learn and grow and welcome others with special needs into their midst.

 



A Little Night Rainbow  

4-A-Little-Night-Rainbow-resizedAbout A Little Night Rainbow:

Max Carmody was married once. It wasn’t pretty.

Now he finds himself stuck for the summer with a thirteen-year-old daughter he barely knows and a sister who will take her in, but not unless he comes with her. Marcie tells her dad she wants him to marry again, but the last thing this Mozart-loving car parts manufacturer needs is romance. Why, the odds of his ever marrying again are about as likely as … as finding a rainbow in the night sky.

Cretia Sherwood was married too and it definitely wasn’t pretty. She is finally healing and regaining some independence. The last thing this Mozart-loving mom of two needs is to submerge herself in another man. She assures her daughter she might marry again—when she sees a night rainbow.

When love brings them a rainbow, both Max and Cretia have to choose between the security they know and the risks of loving again.

Her House Divided by A.J. Goode  

DividedAbout Her House Divided by A.J. Goode:

Ethan Davis always knew his grandmother was a busybody, but he never expected her to play matchmaker from beyond the grave. When he learns that she left her beach house to him and a beautiful stranger, he vows to do whatever it takes to keep the family home – even if that means living with a woman he can’t allow himself to trust.

Tara Bartlett thinks that her luck is finally changing when she inherits part-ownership of a house on the shore of Lake Michigan. She doesn’t like the idea of sharing it with the recently-divorced Ethan, but she’s too busy dealing with her own troubles to think of him as anything more than a business partner.

When a greedy developer wants to steal their beach house right out from under them, they must join together in the fight to save their home, but can they also fight the growing attraction they feel for one another?
