After following other people’s orders my entire life, I’ve finally struck out on my own. I realize that I don’t even know who I am. It’s time I found out who Blaire Daniels really is. I need to discover myself… reinvent myself.

And, if the breathtakingly sexy and handsome, not to mention super rich, Cristiano Leventis is a part of that equation, who am I to complain?

But, is it just coincidence that I meet him now? When I think someone is following me? Or is something more sinister going on? Please don’t let me be falling in love with the wrong man. He seems like such a perfect Mr. Right…

No Stronger Bond  

NoStrongerBondMedium2About No Stronger Bond:

With a dead Marine and very little evidence to support his theory, Chief Homicide Investigator Ethan Sharpe guns for the only viable suspect he can find. He takes the case personal, as would most Marines, in order to find justice for his murdered brethren.

The majority of people who kill do so by acting out in a moment of emotional instability. This killer was stone cold. He or she removed Staff Sergeant Brody Landis’s organs, arranged them neatly on the kitchen counter, described each body part’s physical healthiness in a precise, medical, detached fashion, and left virtually no evidence behind.

Rookie investigator Slim Stobaugh and seasoned detective Audrey Haskill run most of the complex grunt work in this case, with the N.C.I.S. adding an agent of their own to help identify why the deceased Marine was lying about his active duty status. Weeks after the initial death, things finally start adding up. With more deaths, the killer starts making mistakes, and with mistakes, the investigators can finally piece together what happened.

No Stronger Bond is a book in the Stone Cold Killer series. These books are full of dry, dark humor and edge-of-your-seat suspense, featuring fictional homicide investigators from the Pulaski County Crimes Against Persons Section in Little Rock, Arkansas. The Stone Cold Killer Novels do not need to be read in any particular order. Another book in this series, Killer Concert, should be available before October 2016.

The Lady’s Slipper by Deborah Swift  

The-Ladys-Slipper-EbookAbout The Lady’s Slipper by Deborah Swift:

a sweeping historical novel of orchids, obsession and murder
‘Top Pick! Compelling and intriguing, this is a well-told story full of wonderful prose and surprising events. It’s a vivid addition to the genre’. –RT BookReviews
England 1660
When artist Alice Ibbetson discovers a rare orchid, the lady’s-slipper, growing in a nearby wood, she is captivated by its beauty. It is the last surviving specimen and she wants to preserve it for future generations. There is only one problem – it is growing on the land of Richard Wheeler, a newly-converted Quaker, who will not allow her to touch it.

Fearing for the flower’s fragility, she steals the orchid, little dreaming that this seemingly simple act will set off an unstoppable chain of events – a web of intrigue that will lead to murder and exile, and change her comfortable life forever. Vivid, gripping and atmospheric, The Lady’s Slipper is a novel of beauty, loyalty and treachery.
‘captivating…a rich and luscious tapestry. A brilliant book’ Karen Maitland author of the Owl Killers

The Corner Store Witch  

the_corner_store_witch_cinzel_by_abyss_of_crazy-dae9kbm.pngAbout The Corner Store Witch:

Leone owns Pulp Magic (Comics, Books, Games, & More). Angry customers are her biggest concern–until a man from another world literally drops into her shop. And oni have followed him. Leone defends herself with a magical staff, which marks her with powerful runes. Her supernatural tattoo sleeves make her desperately thirsty, yet practically allergic to water–and oh, they foretell the fate of the realms of demons, gods, and men.

With her four friends and inter-dimensional guide, Leone travels to the realm of the gods, searching for magical cosmetic surgery. She doesn’t want to carry the fate of the world literally on her arms. But the truth she finds–of a war raging between worlds–changes her, challenges her.

What’s a nerd to do with the fate of all worlds at stake? Ah yes, kick some demon ass.

The Chronicles of Narnia but with more swearing, more katanas, and less allegory. It’s nerdy, anime inspired fun for the whole family.

Addiction. How To Beat It And Win!  

addiction-coversmall-2About Addiction. How To Beat It And Win!:

In this book we examine what modern medical science can tell us about the nature of addiction, and with that knowledge we will look at the various pathways to beating a crippling addiction. Back in the 1930s scientists began researching addiction and defined it as a defect of character. Fast forward to today and addiction is viewed now as a chronic disease of the brain reward and motivation system.

The next question to ask is: how does this disease state come about in an individual? The answer to this question is what this book is all about, for it seems that we humans are creatures with highly addictive natures and impulses. If we can uncover the primary causes then we can begin to address the potential ways for you to beat your addiction.

There are some very exciting discoveries in recent years that give us new insight into the human brain and body chemistry – factors that play key roles in addictive behavior.

Recent review on Amazon: ‘Very instructional basic information and easy to understand. Can be used in a variety of settings. Not just for persons with addiction, useful for family and loved ones for a better understanding of addition. Reading time is quick and enjoyable. I highly recommend as a primer and for inspiration for recovery. Thank You Mr. Courtney this will be very helpful in my clinical work and I will recommend it to clients.’

Twisted Love. Everyone needs redemption at some point in their lives…

Archaeologist Julietta Anguilar makes the find of a lifetime when she discovers a hidden chamber under the ruins of the Templo Mejor in the heart of Mexico City. But Julietta’s obsession with the past also has a dark side – abused as a young girl, she struggles to find peace amidst chilling reminders of her dead grandfather and other even more sinister spirits whom she has awakened even as she stands on the brink of fame.

Mexico too struggles with its own sordid past, filled with political corruption, criminal overlords and moneyed dynasties. A drug cartel pays an assassin to murder Julietta’s father, a political reporter. Her search for the truth leads her on a dangerous chase deep into the underbelly, where she meets her father’s assassin – a man in black with a nefarious background. He goes by one name, Rocky. Gritty violence, soul-searing hatred, and strange fetishes make Twisted Love a fast read of macabre personalities.
