MASK OF DUPLICITY by Julia Brannan
About MASK OF DUPLICITY by Julia Brannan
Following the death of their father, Beth’s brother Richard returns from the army to claim his share of the family estate. However, Beth’s hopes of a quiet life are dashed when Richard, dissatisfied with his meagre inheritance and desperate for promotion, decides to force her into a marriage for his military gain. And he will stop at nothing to get his way.
Beth is coerced into a reconciliation with her noble cousins in order to marry well and escape her brutal brother. She is then thrown into the glittering social whirl of Georgian high society and struggles to conform. The effeminate but witty socialite Sir Anthony Peters offers to ease her passage into society and she is soon besieged by suitors eager to get their hands on her considerable dowry. Beth, however, wants love and passion for herself, and to break free from the artificial life she is growing to hate. She finds herself plunged into a world where nothing is as it seems and everyone hides behind a mask. Can she trust the people professing to care for her?
The first in the series about the fascinating lives of beautiful Beth Cunningham, her family and friends during the tempestuous days leading up to the Jacobite Rebellion of 1745, which attempted to overthrow the Hanoverian King George II and restore the Stuarts to the British throne.
Join the rebellion of one woman and her fight for survival in…
The Jacobite Chronicles.

Author Bio:
Julia has been a voracious reader since childhood, using books to escape the miseries of a turbulent adolescence. After leaving university with a degree in English Language and Literature, she spent her twenties trying to be a sensible and responsible person, even going so far as to work for the Civil Service. The book escape came in very useful there too.
And then she gave up trying to conform and resolved to spend the rest of her life living as she wanted to, not as others would like her to. She has since had a variety of jobs, including telesales, teaching and gilding and is currently a transcriber, copy editor and proofreader. In her spare time she is still a voracious reader, and enjoys keeping fit and travelling the world. Life hasn’t always been good, but it has rarely been boring. She lives in rural Wales with her cat Constantine, and her wonderful partner sensibly lives four miles away in the next village.
Now she has decided that rather than just escape into other people’s books, she would actually quite like to create some of her own, in the hopes that people will enjoy reading them as much as she does writing them.
It seems they do: Mask of Duplicity was reviewed as a Discovered Diamond on https://discoveringdiamonds.blogspot.co.uk/ which reviews the best in historical fiction. It also won Book Cover of the Month for February 2017.

Two sisters and a beautiful mother caught between tradition and love, a family torn apart by tragedy and betrayal.
From the award winning short story writer of Blues from the Malabar Coast comes a novel about two sisters once bound by love and loyalty; a beautiful mother torn between tradition and love; a gentle and caring father who loves his girls but is caught in the middle, seduced by his wife’s sophistication. Set against the lush background of wild animals and tea estates of Assam, India, this story weaves through the 50’s and 60’s and the India-China confrontation of 1962. Assam transforms the close-knit family: the sisters are thrust apart and the sexually frustrated mother uses her powers to manipulate the father. The sisters have to come to terms that the ties that bind them are no more there.

Billie’s Due, by Henry Samuelson
About Billie’s Due, by Henry Samuelson:
Billie’ Due is the story of Jack Dillard and his lifetime romance with his second wife Roslyn. Shadowed by the ghost of his former love, Billie – who turns out not to be dead after all – their story sweeps toward its resolution against the backdrop of runaway global warming and the out of control effects of a formula called REJUV that has escaped the laboratories and reverses aging. Billie has been gone since 1976, but the battle between Billie’s demons and Jack’s smutty fantasies has never ended, and as October 2019 proceeds the effects of the accidental release of REJUV sweep across the world as Billie makes her odyssey across America. After a fateful meeting in the desert, Billie is transformed and her powers grow and mutate as she clashes with both light and dark. The epic confrontation between Billie’s darkness and the new light that has dawned over Jack’s clouded story dips into deeper realms, and the final dénouement that rages across Roslyn’s dying body wrings you out like a hankie at a wedding.

All of Me, All of You
Neither Emily nor Anika expected to fall in love at this point in their lives: young children, messy marriages and exhausting work loads kept these two friends busy and tired. Both women had been married for almost a decade. Neither expected they would find comfort within each other’s arms after a failed attempt to spice up Anika and her husband’s marriage. Instead of the event tearing their friendship apart, Emily and Anika found a love and support they had never before experienced. While finding the respect, support and love they had always yearned for floodgates of questions opened for both of them. Emily now questioned the very seed of who she had pretended to be for so many years; with Anika she finally felt comfortable and at ease with herself as well as a yearning in a way she had never had satisfied before Anika. Anika struggles feeling torn with the familiarity and love she feels with Emily and the duty she continues to feel toward her husband. Both women got so caught up in creating the family they lacked growing up, they pushed aside their needs to fill the emptiness. All of Me, All of You touches on the very real fight everyday women have between their true desires and who society expects them to be.

The Annoyomancer – A parody of Brandon Sanderson’s Mistborn Series
About The Annoyomancer – A parody of Brandon Sanderson’s Mistborn Series:
Pretty, popular, and mean as they come Jessica Wakefield hates the handsome new literature teacher at Sweet Valley High! Despite his uncanny resemblance to Harrison Ford, he’s assigned her class the entire Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson to read by the end of the semester. Not at all a fan of fantasy, Jessica is determined to protest by letting the whole town know these books are filled with poor moral choices and religions that aren’t Christianity! However her kind and honest twin sister, Elizabeth Wakefield, is a huge fan of Brandon Sanderson and hatches a plan to save Mr. totally not Harrison Ford’s job and get more kids to enjoy the Mistborn series. She writes a parody novel under the assumed identity Sarandon Branderson that is so disturbing and disgusting that it will lead the whole town to condemn it and defend Brandon Sanderson as a paragon of virtue and family friendly fantasy adventure! This parody novel, ‘The Annoyomancer’, follows the quest of Kelsey, Tin, Sade, Spikyface, and Axkillium as they seek to overthrow The Bored Ruler, Ascend on the Ferriswheel of Ascension, learn about Ska music, and understand the conflict between the enormous primordial forces at work shaping the world of Scabiesel. It’s actually not half bad, sitting somewhere in between elaborate, well-written fanfic and academic dissertation on complicated systems of music and magic. There is an Adult version of ‘The Annoyomancer’, and a Children’s / LDS version too with the raunchy bits replaced. Choose wisely! Or buy both?

Author Bio:
Sarandon Branderson is like an alternate universe Brandon Sanderson who suffered severe brain damage after a crazy squanching session with an alcoholic Kzin. He enjoys airplane turbulence, and lives day to day, hand to mouth, writing fantasy novel parodies not just to survive, but to someday even quit his day job and get to squanching all year long! If he was an Allomancer his metal would be Zinc (for rioting). If he was a Feruchemist his metal would be Cadmium (for breathing). As a Twinborn, he’d be called a mouth breather. He’d never be a Mistborn, but might say he is for SEO purposes. Mistborn.
