About Duty & Betrayal by Toby Oliver

In Toby Oliver’s most suspenseful, powerful novel yet, the ties of loyalty and duty are tested when long-buried secrets from World War II are unearthed.
In 1962, the Western powers’ leading scientists meet in London for a conference. A notorious Nazi war criminal is after an attendee from NASA who once worked on Hitler’s rocket program. But CIA agent Jack Stein will stop at nothing to protect him. Meanwhile, Stein’s loyal friend and intelligence source, Spencer Hall of MI5, is consumed with a personal vendetta.
Soviet KGB and Israeli Mossad agents are in town too, and the secrets they’re after are nuclear in more ways than one. Inevitably, the volatile mixture of intelligence agents and ex-Nazis explodes with hair-raising action that will have readers at the edge of their seats.

About The Maddest of Men by Ofelia Gränd

Is lying to a living polygraph really a good idea?
To prove his loyalty to Cham Hovda, one of the local drug lords, Grayham is willing to do anything—and he does. He helps Cham run his empire by finding out the truth by any possible means. It’s not as hard as it may seem, all he has to do is ask the right questions, and his internal polygraph will tell him if someone is lying or not. And when they lie—well he deals with that too. Life as an inquisitor can get quite lonely, not that Grayham plans on doing anything about it. It would kill him to have to off a lover.
Creed is a retrieving agent on a mission. He is to infiltrate one of Carona’s drug organisations to get to the inquisitor. Rumour states the man with the fiery red curls has supernatural powers; it also says anyone coming close to him disappears. Creed has no idea how he’s going to make it out alive or why his supervisor sent him in without backup. But, when an opening to work as a waiter at one of the drug lord’s parties presents itself Creed sets to work.
In a world where people compensate for the years of bombings and starvation with clinic bought physical perfection a man with crooked teeth and mismatching eyes stands out. Grayham notices the waiter watching him straight away. If he’s there to harm Cham, he’ll deal with it. Creed knows he must get his hands on the inquisitor so when he is invited to the man’s flat he agrees to come even though he knows it might be the last thing he’ll ever do.

About Pibbin the Small by Gloria Repp:

Pibbin, smallest of treefrogs, is desperate to help his turtle friend, Sheera, even though it’s a dangerous journey to the doctor’s house. The other frogs tell him he’s too small to go. “You’ll run into snakes and that giant bullfrog,” they say. “Black Snapping Crabs might eat you.” But Sheera’s leg is still bleeding, so Pibbin finds a pal, and they hurry off. No one knows to warn them about a crazy toad-driver, or stolen leaves, or a terrible, misted swamp. . . . And the two pals end up in more trouble than they ever expected.

About Midnight Burn:

The Bane brothers, banished Watchmen of the Empyrean realm, are sentenced to Earth to prove their worth before they can return home. But none of them are feeling the effects of their punishment more than Iain.

A half-breed, Iain has two choices if he wants to survive his new home: feed on the essence of shades (the underlings responsible for slaughtering his people) or find his pure. He’s almost lost his appetite for both when a human crosses his path. She’s smart, powerful and from their soul shattering first touch—destined to be his.

Hunted by the beings responsible for killing half of his race, Lilith is in no rush to trust Iain. She has problems of her own. Big problems. Not to mention, she hardly knows him. But even that doesn’t stop the temptation she has to be with him in every way.

Their feelings for each other burn hot too quickly, and threaten to ignite the walls she’s erected to protect herself. There’s no room to let her guard down, not even for a man willing to sacrifice his body to protect her from the demons that see her as a tool to be used.

About The Girl Who Became A Jaguar:

Olga receives a large spring-binder five year diary for her twelfth birthday. She matures to 18 during the stifling 1950’s. Her trust, beliefs and faith are constantly challenged by her family, school mates and mentors. A tornado tears through the heart of Minneapolis, forcing the residents to help each other. The Hansen family takes in a Mexican immigrant family whose apartment and restaurant have been badly damaged. Xochitl tends to Olga’s mother, a stroke victim, while her husband, Chac, repairs their building. Finally Olga’s beloved older brother, John can enter the seminary as hoped. Olga takes a part-time job at Chac’s restaurant that fall. She is nearly gang-raped after her school Homecoming football game, but Chac comes to her rescue. Olga becomes an outcast when she defends Hedwig, her pregnant school mate in court. Her suspicious father distrusts her, locks her in her small icy room, and when she attempts to escape, he suffers a freak accident. Relatives from New Ulm, her Uncle Hans and his wife arrive to provide stability, and Olga
defends her personal honor in school, in court and loudly, in church! Her brother John returns from his studies and invites Olga on a graduation trip to Chac’s home village south of Villahermosa. Not knowing that John has become a doubter, spiritually confused and twisted, Olga gets hand-drawn maps from Chac, the newest Rand McNally’s and they set off on their odyssey. She is duty bound to cover for her brother’s immoral behavior several times on their trek. As they near their destination, a peculiar hitch-hiker guides them to higher ground off the road when serious thunderstorms threaten their survival. The next morning they are surrounded with local Indians who guide them to a hidden village dedicated to the ways of the ancient Maya. John soon meets his fate, but alone and desperate, Olga becomes attracted to the honest rawness of the people who treat her with respect after they watch her floss her teeth in amazement. She slowly evolves into a woman who can blend her Catholicism with their culture: the ritual blood-letting from the royalty, the constant hunting, the head-binding of the infants and the rugged sport of Tlachtli. She soon learns that her arrival in this village was not by chance, but by plan. The future King returns to the village. He is none other than her savior and boss, Chac. He teaches her the ways of the forest, woos and seduces her with flavored pulque. Olga learns that she has mispronounced Chac’s name.; he is not Chaac, the Maya rain god, but K’ak. the god of Fire. K’ak renames Olga as Ixchel, a Mayan mixture of Diana and Venus. Assuring himself that Olga is pregnant and that the extended village is politically secure, K’ak vanishes to the north again. Olga consoles herself with working out and long jogs with her trusted little shadow, K’ayun, the High Priest Xib’s little nephew. She joins the ladies of the Royal Na [House] preparing food on primitive grills and clay griddles as well as modern equipment brought to the village by K’ak. There is no refrigeration, no electricity; so hunting, gathering, slash and burn farming, and finding game is a 7/24 pursuit since this village, like the ancient Maya, keep no domestic animals. Olga is respected as the future King’s choice, but she has upset the expected lineage which engenders jealousy and danger among the royal women. In fact, Olga/Ixchel is not the only currently pregnant wife to K’ak! Olga/Ixchel fashions herself into Balam, the female jaguar, quite capable of defending herself even in the latter stages of pregnancy.
She decides to learn Mayan math in the second Na, the realm of the teachers. She is attracted to O’uin, the senior math teacher, a widower with a genius young son who suffers tantrums. O’uin is Captain of the Lords of Death, the rival tlachtli team to her home team of the Royal Na, the Hero Twins. She learns the genius of Mayan math, counting upward by twenties and using a shell to represent zero, one of the six great systems of the world. When the future King K’ak does not return before she is due, O’uin and the mid-wives of the Royal Na deliver Olga/Ixchel’s twin sons publicly. K’ak returns shortly to claim his throne, but he seems more intent on gathering all the portable artwork of the village, the tapestries, vessels, sculptures, baskets, urns, and vases. He disappears again with twenty of the strongest village athletes as his bearers to where he has a rented truck waiting. The worn-out bearers return to the village weeks later after an ordeal. The people learn that K’ak was only pretending to want to show off their artwork to the American Northwest in his new chain of restaurants. Instead he undid the packages and filled the artwork with choice marijuana and Mexican brown heroin. Weeks later, when Olga/Ixchel has mounted the 365 steps of the pyramid observatory, she spots a traitor to her people leading four heavily armed Mexican cartel scouts to the village. The intruders take the Priest’s nephew hostage and promise to return in four months when they will expect the village to raise ten large burlap bags of marijuana for them. Will the village bows and arrows, atlatls and poison darts be a match for the cartel’s rifles and semi-automatic weapons or will the village be compelled to be slaves to the cartel? When K’ak returns, how will Olga/Ixchel explain that she is now pregnant to O’uin? Will she be forced to make the greatest sacrifice yet in her young life?

Pornography is everywhere.

Ladies, if your man is fascinated by porn, you probably feel frustrated, hurt, angry, and confused. You may even feel less desirable, or like he’s cheating on you.

Either way, your relationship is likely in turmoil. This book, based on firsthand experience, can help you get your relationship back on track.

About The Forebear’s Candle:

It’s 1976, and hippie student Colin and his new girlfriend, Kate, begin their life together during that heatwave summer. But something—or someone—intrudes into Colin’s mind and won’t go away. It leads them to unwind an extraordinary tale, taking them back to events some 500 years ago, to Jusuf, Rodrigo and Gwenna.

Who are they, though, and what is their link with Colin and Kate? And what’s the sinister mystery at the heart of their story that threatens the very existence of Colin and Kate’s own world?

A fresh and original time-slip novel of romance, revenge, religion, and redemption, where twentieth-century England’s North West and fifteenth-century Cornwall are unforgettably evoked with colour, richness and wit. If you like beautifully engrossing tales of mystery and intrigue, you will love The Forebear’s Candle.

Author Bio:
Clive was born in the mid-1950s in Bradford, in what was then the West Riding of the English county of Yorkshire. Mid-way through the 1970s, he found himself lured away by the bright lights of Manchester to attend Salford University.

In addition to getting a degree in electronics, he also had the good fortune of meeting Maureen (Kit) Medley – subsequently his partner and recent Editor. Manchester retained its lure and has thereafter been his hometown.

Torn between the arts (a natural and easy artist) and the sciences (struggled with maths), youthful rationality favoured science as a living, leaving art as a pastime pleasure. Consequently, after graduation, twenty years were spent implementing technologies for mainframe computer design and manufacture, and being a Group IT Manager for an international print company.

The unearthing of a late seventies manuscript – during loft improvements – resurrected an interest in storytelling, and one thing led to another. A naïve and inexpert seed finally received benefit of mature loam, and from it Leiyatel’s Embrace eventually blossomed.
