  1. Legendary Magic: Relic Hunter Book 3

    LM-Image-2E-with-TextAbout Legendary Magic: Relic Hunter Book 3:

    Loyalty and duty have a nasty way of complicating an already challenging task. Fortunately for Dr. Arienne Cerasola, she’s not bound to any organization – mainly because none of the magical organizations seem to want her. That would be a good thing if it weren’t so incredibly insulting.

    The fact that her former (dishonest) partner has banded with the man who ruined her credibility as an archaeologist just twists the knife a little deeper. Their well publicized archaeological expedition in the United Kingdom could spell trouble for the magical community. The kind of trouble that could put Arienne, her family, and maybe the entire magical balance of power in jeopardy.

    As a witch and disgraced archaeologist, Arienne shouldn’t be surprised when Kingston Pon asks her help to find a lost relic. What is surprising is that her own grandfather, respected archaeologist Christy O’Flynn wants to help her find the truth behind the legends, and he knows all about Kingston’s subversive activities with Crux Crucio Orbis. In fact, Christy has quite a history of his own in the resistance movement. Arienne is enticed to lead the geriatric crew on a quest to beat the competition to the relic – and avoid being discovered by the two other groups who seek it.

    Caught between the clandestine world of the C.C.O., the dangers of the Alliance, and the treachery of a new magical organization, Arienne must trace the grain of truth from the ancient Celts, through the Roman Empire, and right into King Arthur’s court. The fate of the magical world might depend on her ability to untangle the legends which were created to protect the relic. Her own fate might depend on her ability to see through the confines of loyalty and duty. Arienne might be the only one who can keep the balance of power without collapsing the foundations that hold magic in check but to accomplish that, she’ll have to face the truth about herself, her family, and her place a world she was never really part of.

    Author Bio:
    I love characters that struggle with self-doubt – I think it’s the most human part of us – so I create characters who move through the world in much the same manner as most people I know. I think it’s our insecurities and our manner of dealing with those which make us interesting and loveable.

    Since I was a little girl I read books on archaeology and magic with a few thrillers thrown in for good measure. My reading tastes were passed down to me from my family members because we all were voracious readers. Growing up in rural New York State, there were plenty of opportunities to spend the day reading – snowstorms generally provided me with a solid block of 24 hours where there was nothing else to do but read. I looked forward to those snow storms! Summer vacations were another opportunity that I took full advantage of and my mother and I would make an annual pilgrimage to the bookstore to pick out the summer reading list – we still share books and discuss the characters and plots.

    My books are meant to be a fun escape from the daily grind of everyday life. I like to play “what if” and combine my interests into smart, sassy stories with sightly neurotic characters. I want to take my readers on a journey where they can become absorbed in another place and meet interesting characters – all the while knowing I will bring them safely home at the end of the story feeling satisfied and a little happier.

  3. My Miami Model

    Miami-web-200x300About My Miami Model:

    Thomas Harper believes he will never find love again. His heart has frozen, a means of keeping him alive and nothing more. When the beautiful blonde approaches him in a hotel bar his first instinct is to send her away, but she asks a special favour of him, one that seems safe enough.

    As his week in Miami passes, what starts out as a simple arrangement turns into something far different, and slowly Thomas feels that cold lump in his chest begin to thaw. He cannot believe someone as wonderful as Nikki might be interested in him as anything other than a safe haven from the pressures of the world, but it seems she is.

    A Week in Miami is a tale of love and lust found in unexpected places, a love that will change two people’s lives forever.

    Suitable for adult readers only.

    Author Bio:
    Tess Harding started writing fiction at the age of 9, but had to wait until she was 24 before being published professionally. That was a long time ago, and somewhere along the way real life demanded her attention and she drifted away from writing until recently.

    Tess writes erotic fiction which, she sincerely believes, is different. Many works under that banner consist of graphic and extreme sex. Tess believes that true eroticism only comes from character and storyline. Therefore, her fiction may take a while to get going, but it will get you there in the end and, it can be argued, will result in greater satisfaction.

    And discovering the truth about himself is the human race’s only hope.

    Author Bio:
    T.J. Alexian lives in Attleboro, Massachusetts in a renovated green Victorian, along with seven ghosts and his long-time (and long-suffering) partner. He also has three kids and one spiritual kid, and their stories and their spirit form the heart and soul of his novel, Pictures of You.

    A profiled author in the Writer’s Digest book Writer with a Day Job and an award-winning communications specialist, Pictures of You is Alexian’s first novel, although he has two more being prepared for distribution: The Late Night Show and Confessions of a Diva Rotundo.

    Pictures of You is a young adult thriller that combines Alexian’s love for social media with the macabre. A ghost story for the dispossessed, the novel tells the story of a young girl haunted by events in her past that never seem to die. But more than that, the novel is about being heard, about giving voice to voices that don’t fit the norm. Some that lack the courage…and some, that hide in the shadows.

  15. Everflame by Dylan Lee Peters

    E1_PaperbackAbout Everflame by Dylan Lee Peters:

    Long ago, when the earth was young… Four ancient beings created man to be the bastion of the earth and its creatures. But when The Great Tyrant came and chased The Ancients away, the world was transformed into a place of fear and isolation. Over time humans lost the connection they had with a world they had been created to protect. Now, deep in the forests that surround Gray Mountain, two bears find a small child that is abandoned and left for dead. They name him Evercloud, and raise him as a member of their kingdom. Teaching him the secrets of the elders, they tell him of the ancient beings that created man and the rumors of their return. Evercloud must now go on a quest to return The Ancients to power. However, in another corner of the land, a man known only as The Messenger travels the land under a white hood, on a mission to prevent the return of The Ancients. We follow the paths each of these men take until their stories collide in an epic battle of good versus evil.

    Author Bio:
    The most difficult part of being an author isn’t writing a book. It’s answering the question, What is your book about? Because what you’re really asking me is, Why should I read your book? It was over the course of four months and 84,000 words that the first book of the Everflame series was born, and in just a tiny fraction of that time and space, I need to give an answer that sparks your interest.

    The short answer is Everflame is a fantasy/adventure novel that takes place in the land of Ephanlarea. We follow the tale of a very young boy who is found in the woods by bears, and raised as a member of their kingdom. As he ages, he is faced with an evil that threatens to destroy his world, and he must quest to prevent that from happening. It is an epic tale of good versus evil, in a world of adventure and imagination.

    The longer, yet more meaningful answer is that Everflame is about my character, my beliefs and myself. It is a parable of my own personal philosophy and my own journey, and at the story’s very core it is a promise. It is an oath to all who I love and who love me that the man I have become and the man I will always be, will do everything I can to be a strength they can rely on and a constant light amid the darkest of times. In other words, it is the very spirit of who I am that is the Everflame.

    In the story, the Everflame is a literal flame that burns eternally atop Gray Mountain, the home of the bears who find the young boy abandoned in the forest. The flame is a symbol to the bears of enduring spirit. It resides as the core of their ethics and all they are. An excerpt from the book sees Whiteclaw, a bear, explain the meaning of the Everflame.

    “The Everflame is a symbol. It has no power. It’s just a reminder of something we all have, our spirit. And it is to this spirit that we are accountable. Not to an all-powerful tyrant, not even to ancient creators, simply to ourselves. By making an oath to the Everflame, I am merely making an oath to all that I am. If I break that oath, it is I who suffer the greatest loss, and nothing can change that…We all have the ability to judge our own hearts, and we should all have the courage to do so.”

    This becomes the central theme that the two most prominent characters in Everflame, Evercloud and Edgar Shein, must face. It would be too simplistic to label them as one good and the other evil. Instead each character is capable of both good and evil. They have to choose with every new moment which path to take, the path of good or the path of evil. It is these choices that ultimately define who they are. It is they who mold themselves, it is they who mold their relationships with those around them, and it is they who mold their world.

    And so we return to the question I must answer, Why should you read Everflame? You should read Everflame because its central theme is about me, and in the very same way, it is also about you. Ask yourself, who and what do you live for? Who and what do you fight for? And in your personal battle, will you lose strength and fall into darkness? Or will you live with the Everflame in your heart and be a light and a foundation for those that you love?

    As you think about your own answers, I’ll leave you with Whiteclaw’s words to those who faced the very same questions.

    “Now you must remember what it is that we fight for… Remember your mothers, your fathers, your sisters, and your brothers. Remember all those who have loved you and remain close to your heart. For it is that love that has seen us through the darkness of this world. It is that love that has been a light. See that light. Feel its heat. Now become that light. For it is now we who must banish the darkness for those who have done the same for us.”
