The Fire Mages’ Daughter by Pauline M Ross  

About The Fire Mages’ Daughter by Pauline M Ross:

A girl fighting her destiny. A living god. A war with the Blood Clans.

Seventeen-year-old Drina just wants to hide away with her books, but as the daughter of two powerful mages and heir to the ruler of Bennamore, her wishes are rarely considered. Summoned to the capital, she is plunged into a maelstrom of politics and power struggles. The only compensation is Arran, the handsome bodyguard she grows to love.

In her new role as a diplomat, she visits Bennamore’s mysterious neighbours, the Blood Clans. There she discovers there are other, darker forms of magic in the world than the familiar spells of the mages. Driven onward by a living god, the Blood Clans’ magic drags both their countries to the brink of war. Surrounded by enemies, Drina must find a way to tame the power of a god before everything she loves is destroyed.

Author Bio:
I live in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland with my husband. I like chocolate, whisky, my Kindle, massed pipe bands, long leisurely lunches, chocolate, going places in my campervan, eating pizza in Italy, summer nights that never get dark, wood fires in winter, chocolate, the view from the study window looking out over the Moray Firth and the Black Isle to the mountains beyond. And chocolate. I dislike driving on motorways, cooking, shopping, hospitals.

Author Bio:
Shelley lives in Auckland, the City of Sails, with her husband and a cheeky Jack Russell/mystery breed puppy.

Typical New Zealanders, Shelley and her husband left home for their big OE soon after they married (translation of New Zealand speak – big overseas experience). A year long adventure lengthened to six years of roaming the world. Enduring memories include being almost sat on by a mountain gorilla in Rwanda, lazing on white sandy beaches in India, whale watching in Alaska, searching for leprechauns in Ireland, and dealing with ghosts in an English pub.

While travel is still a big attraction, these days Shelley is most likely found in front of her computer following another love – that of writing stories of romance and adventure. Other interests include watching rugby (strictly for research purposes), cycling, baking bread and curling up with a good book.



One Last Kiss  

OneLastKiss_500X750About One Last Kiss:

London, 1812. Captain Mikhail Abromovich would rather single-handedly face the entire French army than follow orders to deceive Anna, the woman of his heart, by feigning a courtship to hide his covert activities.

Ever since a gossip sheet revealed the details of her extensive dowry, Princess Anna Tarasova has been overrun by fortune-hunting lords. When her childhood sweetheart mysteriously appears in London and asks to court her, it seems too good to be true.

For Mikhail, who is both soldier and spy, being chosen to represent Russia in secret negotiations with Britain should be the assignment of a lifetime. But once his deception is revealed, he’s certain Anna won’t believe his love is real.

Author Bio:
Ally has worked as a horse trainer, director of marketing and development, freelance proofreader, and a children’s librarian, among other things. None of them were as awesome as writing romance novels (though the librarian gig came closest). She lives in Texas and is convinced her house is shrinking, possibly because she shares it with three kids, four dogs, a cat, a rabbit, and assorted reptiles. Oh, and her husband.

Ally likes to curse in Russian because very few people know what she’s saying, and spends most of what would be her spare time letting dogs in and out of the house and shuttling kids around. She has many stories in her head looking for an opportunity to escape onto paper. She writes historical romance set in Regency England and Imperial Russia, and middle grade and young adult literature under the pen name Ally Mathews.



Enigma of Life  

About Enigma of Life:

Enigma: a person or thing that is mysterious or difficult to understand.

Isaac Holt is the very definition of an enigma. He is mysterious, dangerous, alluring and knee clankingly gorgeous. After a chance meeting, I was falling at his feet, literally. His magnetizing allure has the ability to electrify all of my senses with the simple touch of his fingertip.

But no matter how much my body craves Isaac’s touch, I can’t have him. Morally and ethically, he is off limits. He is the enemy. My rational thinking head logically understands this, but my lust-driven heart needs a little more convincing.

A story about two people who are destined NOT to be together. This is not your typical love story.

Not everything is black and white. There is a whole heap of gray that no one pays any attention to.

Author Warning: This book contains sex scenes, adult references, swear words and adult scenes. This book is only recommended for 18+ readers.

The Death Dealing Game  

About The Death Dealing Game:

Meet Emily Lynch, a hot-tempered, ex-Iraqi vet currently on suspension from the NYPD for hitting the booze too hard while on the job. She’s six-feet tall, rangy and strong, and has the looks of a runway model. But don’t tell her that unless your dental insurance is paid up. Impulsive, brash, brutally honest, and prone to use physical force when a clever question would get better results, she’s the polar opposite of elite private investigator, Frank Boff, legendary ex-DEA agent and world-class junk food aficionado.

When two people close to Lynch are brutally murdered, she can’t investigate their deaths because of her suspension, and so with great reluctance she teams up with Boff, for whom she has nothing but disdain. As they begin investigating the double murder, they discover that it’s just the tip of a massive conspiracy involving gunrunning, high-stakes poker games, a seriously weird string of assassinations, and caffeinated mobsters with short fuses and big guns.

Once again, private eye Frank Boff finds himself on his home turf, the Dark Side, where nothing is as it appears to be.

Constantly running into roadblocks of lies and deception, and twice the target of assassination, Boff and Lynch finally find common ground—seek and destroy the killers in an endgame scenario that gives new meaning to Boff’s code of doling out a punishment more just than mere justice.

The Light in the Himalayas, Chronicles of Discovery by M.G. Hawking  

About The Light in the Himalayas, Chronicles of Discovery by M.G. Hawking:

On an extended trek into a closed region of the Great Range of the Himalaya, explorer M.G. Hawking discovered the reality of one of the most captivating of all ancient legends, the existence of a mysterious “world of light,” a hidden sanctuary of great masters possessed of transcendent knowledge.
In a small village surrounded by vast snow fields and towering ice peaks, Hawking encountered a number of extraordinary men and women, meetings that marked the beginning of sixty-two months he spent in the Himalayas. During that time he kept detailed records of his experiences and conversations with those remarkable individuals. Transcribed directly from Hawking’s 14,000 pages of hand-written journal notes, along with another 4,500 pages of field notes, this anthology transports the reader into a fabled realm in the Himalayas to reveal esoteric knowledge and practices that for long millenniums have remained concealed under a legacy of misdirection, myth, and intense secrecy.
As entertaining as it is deeply enlightening, this is a truly incomparable book for anyone interested in greatly expanding their knowledge and personal power, and notably fascinating for anyone interested in exploring the realities underlying the ancient accounts of a legendary world of light in the Himalayan wilderness. 2017 Special Edition. A Kindle Unlimited Book. For more information, please see the Amazon description and ‘Look Inside’ feature. Thank you.

French Twist  

About French Twist:

Sydney Bennett had spent her life in pursuit of perfection. She planned, weighed her options and made careful choices based on calculated outcomes. Through all of her efforts, she had come pretty close to perfection, if she didn’t say so herself. She had fled the cold winters in New York for sunny California, found a job that she loved and lived in the same town as her sister, and best friend, Kate. The one area of perfection that had always eluded her was her love life. No matter how hard she tried, she always ended up with a broken heart. After a particularly traumatic breakup, Sydney vowed that she was done with love.

Just as Sydney threw herself into her new plan to forget about men, a handsome Frenchman tossed all of her intentions out the window as he swept her off of her feet. Louis Durand had lived a life filled with excitement and adventure. He was impetuous, intelligent and incredibly charming. So naturally, he scared Sydney half to death. From the moment they met, Louis and Sydney’s romance progressed at warp speed. Sydney did her best not to run, but her deep rooted relationship anxiety threatened to provide an easy exit. When Louis mentioned marriage before Sydney even knew his favorite color, she was more than tempted to reach for her running shoes. Will she be able to put her fears aside to follow her heart? The one thing that Sydney will learn is that sometimes perfection comes with a twist…

Author Bio:
Glynis never expected in her wildest dreams to be a writer. After thirteen years in the Human Resources Industry, she decided to stay at home with her two amazing sons. Ever in search of a project, she was inspired to write the story of how, in only six short months, she met and married her wonderfully romantic French husband, Sebastien. The end result became her first novel, French Twist. As this was just the beginning of their epic love story, Glynis continued to chronicle their adventures in the sequel, French Toast, and the final installment in the series, French Fry. After she finished milking her life story for all it was worth, she decided to write straight-up fiction with Gamer Girl, which infuses her beloved chick lit with a hint of fantasy.

When Glynis is not writing, she is trying to keep the peace amongst the three men and two cats in her life, finding missing body parts (Lego pieces are small!), supervising a myriad of homework assignments and keeping a tenuous hold on her sanity by consuming whatever chocolate is in the vicinity.

Author Bio:
Amazon best selling author, Barbara Goss, lives in Western New York and to date has written 25 Christian/Clean Romance books, mostly westerns. She enjoys crossword puzzles, penny slots, reading, swimming, and her two cats, but not necessarily in that order. She tries to write exciting stories with a bit of God’s word spread within, without dominating the story.

Barbara began writing in 1988 and her first book, Forbidden Legacy, won first prize for fiction at a Christian Writers Convention in Titusville, Florida in 1989. This won her a book contract with Publishers: Fleming Revell and later Baker Books. She wrote four books for them under contract. She then took a few years off to work full time as a secretary to the county hospital and the local school system.

Barbara’s greatest influence in writing is the 100 books written by Grace Livingston Hill. As a Christian writer, she weaves a bit of godliness into the romance and adventure yet her books are always clean. Barbara is well on her way to catching up to Ms. Livingston.

Mountain Malice  

mountain malice book About Mountain Malice:

Hiking is one of Jaden’s favorite pastimes – especially when it’s with the group of friends he’s known all his life. And this annual hike to the Shadow Mountains is the best hike of all. But this year, something’s wrong. It starts with the blood-curdling noise that cuts through the mountain stillness. A noise that none of his friends apparently hear. Worse, is the feeling that he’s been waiting all his life to hear it. And then he sees it: a creature so horrendous is makes his nightmares laughable. Malice emanates from its very core. But none of his friends can see the monster either. Why is he the only one who can see or hear it? Is he really suffering from altitude sickness like his friends claim? Or is it truly there and will it annihilate him before his friends can see it to stop it?

This is the first short story in a series; the second short story in the series, “Lake Encounter” is currently on free promo through 01/19/2017 – so you can get two for the price of one!
