Transformed_SF_SnapAbout Transformed: San Francisco by Suzanne Falter & Jack Harvey:

Charley McElroy is a handsome, well-heeled travel writer and CIA informant who also happens to be a female-to-male transman. And he’s having a midlife crisis. Charley gets suspended by the Agency after forgetting to pay his taxes. Only days earlier, yet another marriage proposal has been spurned. In his grief and confusion, Charley befriends Electra, a high-powered Manhattan socialite-turned-dominatrix rebuilding her life in San Francisco. Then he meets Frankie, a disgruntled lesbian police sergeant who has been demoted by the SFPD for being a whistle blower.

Together they uncover a Christian fundamentalist’s lethal plot to destroy the ‘hedonists’ of San Francisco. Yet, neither the SFPD nor the CIA will take the threat seriously due to the trio’s outsider status. Can they get anyone to listen to them? Or are they on their own? Find out in this funny thriller filled with San Francisco’s spectacular scenery and inimitable, quirky characters.

The_Hidden_Genes_of_Professor_K_Gabriel_FaragoAbout The Hidden Genes of Professor K: A dark and disturbing medical mystery thriller:

World-renowned scientist, Professor K knows he’s close to a ground-breaking discovery. He also knows he’s dying. With his last breath he anoints Dr Alexandra Delacroix as his successor and pleads with her to carry on his work. Delacroix unwittingly enters a dangerous world of unbridled ambition and greed that threatens to destroy her. Desperate and alone, she turns to celebrated author and journalist, Jack Rogan.

Alistair Macbeth, self-made billionaire and enigmatic founder of Blackburn Pharmaceuticals, has a murky past. He knows he must secure Professor K’s discovery for his empire, or perish. Powerful and ruthless, he will stop at nothing to achieve his dark and deep desires.

Meanwhile, when the parents of a famous rock star, Isis, are brutally murdered, Jack Rogan is asked to investigate.

On a perilous journey of discovery that takes them around the globe, Jack and Lola Rodriguez—Isis’ resourceful PA—join forces with Jana Gonski, a former police officer; Dr Bettany Rosen, a tireless campaigner for the destitute and forgotten; and Tristan, a gifted boy with psychic powers. Together, they expose a complex web of fiercely guarded secrets and heinous crimes of the past that can ruin them all and change history.

Will Rogan succeed? Will the dreams of a visionary scientist with the power to change the future of medicine fall into the wrong hands, or will his genius benefit mankind and prevent untold misery and suffering for generations to come?

Author Bio:
Born in Budapest, Gabriel grew up in post-War Europe, and after fleeing Hungary with his parents during the Revolution in 56, he went to school in Austria before arriving in Australia as a teenager. This allowed him to become multi-lingual and feel ‘at home’ in different countries and diverse cultures. Shaped by a long legal career and experiences spanning several decades and continents, his is a mature voice that speaks in many tongues.
Gabriel holds degrees in literature and law, speaks several languages and takes research and authenticity very seriously. Inquisitive by nature, he studied Egyptology and learned to read the hieroglyphs. He travels extensively and visits all of the locations mentioned in his books.

‘I try to weave fact and fiction into a seamless storyline,’ he explains. ‘By blurring the boundaries between the two, the reader is never quite sure where one ends, and the other begins. This is of course quite deliberate as it creates the illusion of authenticity and reality in a work that is pure fiction. A successful work of fiction is a balancing act: reality must rub shoulders with imagination in a way that is both entertaining and plausible.’

Gabriel lives in the Blue Mountains in Australia just outside Sydney, surrounded by a World Heritage National Park.

Toltec Dawn by Author R.J.Hore  

Toltec-Dawn-medium-2About Toltec Dawn by Author R.J.Hore:

A what-if fantasy tale base on the idea of what might have happened if the inhabitants of North America arrived in Europe first, and came bearing heavy weapons.

Convert Fergus mac Ogma, a youthful Irish acolyte of the god Tezcatlipoca, has a burning desire to survive and the will to become more than a native underling in a land controlled by the invaders from across the ocean. But Tezcatlipoca’s altars are drenched in the blood of his Christian countrymen and he finds himself at odds with all his family values.

Captain Mixcoatl is settling in with his wife as commander of the Toltec fort at St Albans in the province of England. When the governor strips the province of troops to invade the Continent he’s left with a skeleton force to hold the colony against the opportunistic invasion of the Scots.

Rowena, the young Saxon girl, is fleeing England with her uncle the monk and attempting to reach the Continent across the Channel. Thwarted, her uncle dead, Rowena finds herself a slave in Mixcoatl’s household. But when she’s taken by Normans supporting the Scots she’ll have to decide where her loyalties lie.

Set in 1215AD after the Toltec conquest of Ireland and England, three lives gradually become entwined as they face their personal desires and the challenges of an occupied land, religious tension, and the threat of an invasion.

Available now, Toltec Dawn will be followed by Toltec Khan in December 2016, and Toltec Noon in July 2017.

Four years ago her childhood sweetheart died.

Jamie West has returned home to Heart Valley and opened her own investigating business so she can help her mother who’s been stricken with a debilitating disease. Though she grew up in Heart Valley, the picturesque little tourist town at the foot of the Teton Mountains is the last place Jamie wants to be. There are too many memories of Cole McDaniel here, the boy who was her first and only love, the boy who left home at eighteen and broke her heart, the boy who by age twenty-three was dead.

But when a single mom asks Jamie to find her missing daughter, she becomes drawn into a case that not only dredges up old, painful memories she’d rather forget, but is about to give her the shock of her life and bring someone new into it.

Can love conquer even death? Jamie is about to find out.

From bestselling author Linsey Lanier, Cole is the second book in the Heart Valley Romance series, a sweet romance series set in Heart Valley, Wyoming. The first five books in this series will feature the McDaniel family, owners of the McDaniel Resort Ranch, whose ancestors founded the town of Heart Valley near the Grand Teton Mountains back in pioneer days.

This Krismas

He believed in love and Christmas, she didn’t. Could this holiday season be a time for laughter, joy and new beginnings?

Kris St. James wasn’t one who believed in love and Christmas. Everything bad that happened to her seemed to always happen during the holidays. This holiday season was the worst. She had been fired from her job for something she didn’t do and was delivered shocking news that she was now a parent to a baby girl. Becoming a mother was the furthest thing from her mind, but whether this was fate or not, she wasn’t going to let history repeat itself and leave her child without its mother. What she hadn’t expected, was that she would be going head to head with the handsome man who made her want to believe that there was such a thing call love after all.

Marcus James wanted what most men want, a family. The only thing is, he was single. With his ticking biological clock hanging over his head, he decided to take a chance and fulfil his yearning for fatherhood by hiring someone to carry the child he desperately craved. He had chosen the perfect donor only to find out it wasn’t her egg he was given. Now the biological mother of his daughter wants her for herself, but he wasn’t giving her up without a fight. He had a plan in place but it all fell apart when he realized the mother of his daughter was the one woman who had been haunting his dreams since they first met. Could he keep his daughter and have her mother too?

This Christmas season, may all your dreams and wishes come true.

We have two adorable boys who keep us on our toes. When I’m not writing, I’m doing something else that’s creative. I enjoy reading romance novels with a happily ever after.

In Palm Beach There Are Only Two Seasons.
Hurrican Season And “His” Season.

Heiress Encounters Devilish British Tycoon & His Mysterious Country Club Cronies
Hit Novel From Amazon Kindle Scout’s Hot & Trending List!

Kristen Stratford is beautiful, blonde, and quite naïve when it comes to her men. She has a knack for finding the wrong ones! She is expected to marry within her elite social circle; but the wealthier they are, the more secrets they have!

Palm Beach is being even more mysterious as the prestigious members of the Whitestone Country Club are running amok trying to “secure” dates for their highly anticipated Black Veil soiree. At this shadowy event it is never considered a privilege to be the “Guest of Honor”, and poor Kristen is perched right in the center of their sight lines. And, with these edgy billionaires, their global BDSM playrooms take on a whole different meaning. Only the island “insiders” know exactly what sacrifices these powerful men make when they return every season.

It has been quite a quest for the young socialite while searching for her prince. She hooks up with a top executive, a Mafia nightclub owner, and a quirky New York police lieutenant, as she tries to avoid kissing all the other frogs along the way. Her trust fund is also preyed upon by Robert St. Germain, a high stakes con artist who she just can’t seem to escape.

Kristen finally finds her true love, but then forsakes it all for Karl, a handsome and somewhat “devilish” British tycoon that she meets at a charity ball. As he lures her into his dark realm, Kristen is now unsure of exactly who is in charge of her future. Will she ever find unconditional love?

Billionaires, Bad Boys is filled with steamy romance, a hint of the supernatural, and unforgettable true to life characters. Its unexpected twists provide for an adventure on every page!

Author Bio:
Single Author Seeks Rich Man To Buy Her Ocean-Front Mansion. Inquire Within.

When it came to writing Billionaires, Bad Boys, Devils, Susan Southwood at first considered entering into a pact with the “demon” to guarantee her fame and fortune. As dark and sexy as this unholy alliance may sound, Southwood has decided to set forth on her own. At least for now…

Southwood hopes that her readers will enjoy the book and not take it seriously. This adventurous novel is primarily for those who have a little darkness in their own lives and enjoy reading about; or wearing a handcuff from time to time.

Sorry. No photo for this author – Southwood fears retaliation from her “fictional characters” and is hiding in an exotic locale somewhere in the world; most likely on a beach…
