EMBRACE THE WIND, an Historical Novel of the American West: Aislynn’s Story – Book 2 by Susan Denning
About EMBRACE THE WIND, an Historical Novel of the American West: Aislynn’s Story – Book 2 by Susan Denning
What is the cost of living life on your own terms? For a young woman on the American Frontier, the price can be high.
Aislynn Maher trusted the wrong man. To conceal her disgrace, she abandons her job, her home, her family and friends. She turns to the raw, contentious US marshal of the Wyoming Territory, Orrin Sage, who is hiding a guilty secret of his own.
Setting out alone, Aislynn brings her optimism and determination to Cheyenne. But in this rough town, with its prejudice, violence and lawlessness, it’s not just difficult to do what you believe is right – it’s potentially deadly.
This unlikely love story details real triumphs and tragedies from frontier women’s letters, diaries and newspapers of the day, and places Aislynn in the center of their history. Embrace the Wind illuminates an intimate picture of the American frontier, the story of the women who changed the West and helped forge the freedoms we enjoy today.

Author Bio:
In 2011, I published the novel FAR AWAY HOME about a young woman who left New York City in 1868 to start a new life in Utah. Up to that time, most of my writing focused on professional journals and texts. When I ventured into fiction, I wrote short stories. One story received honorable mention in a NOW short story contest and was published in Creative Woman.
The novel FAR AWAY HOME began as a chapter for a history book. I conducted my research in the American west for three years; I even drove a covered wagon (check out the Youtube video on the FAR AWAY HOME page at www.susandenningauthor.com). When the history book project dissolved, I used my research to write an historical novel.
As a self-published, unknown author, I never imagined anyone would read FAR AWAY HOME. But tens of thousands of readers did. For four years, it ranked among the Top 100 in the Historical- US and Romance Western categories. To my great surprise, many readers requested the next chapter of the story. In EMBRACE THE WIND, Aislynn’s journey continues.
The Discipline for a Lasting Marriage Series (11 Book Series) by Sigrid Katrindatter
About The Discipline for a Lasting Marriage Series (11 Book Series) by Sigrid Katrindatter
Get introduced to Charlie and Lydia, a compelling young, WWII era couple with a DD marriage, in this new 11-book (and counting) series. The two start out as struggling young actors in Hell’s Kitchen, NYC, but by the 11th book the two have a toddler son, are living much more comfortably in a well-appointed apartment in Lake View neighborhood, Chicago, IL and Charlie is filming the latest in a series of films. Learn how the two come to have a “spanking marriage,” eventually negotiate and occasionally re-negotiate a written spanking agreement, and struggle to introduce “just-because” [maintenance] spankings when Lydia struggles to remain focused during the long absences caused by Charlie’s burgeoning success. Read about how they deal with privacy issues posed by nosy neighbors, a curious toddler, and location shoots. Experience with them the drama and occasionally the humor, and always the loving, supportive ups-and-downs of Lydia, an intelligent, spirited woman, learning to make safer, less reckless decisions with the sometimes very firm guidance of her adoring young husband, Charlie. NOTE: These book contains vivid descriptions of sexual activity, domestic discipline, the spanking of an adult woman, anal sex and anal discipline. If such scenes offend you or trigger you, please do not purchase these books. In addition, the series is also about two young, devoted married people growing and maturing together over the course of multiple story lines; they are flawed, loving, devoted human beings, and therefore make mistakes they try to correct. They are not perfect, but they are devoted. Finally, PLEASE NOTE: Any resemblance to real people, living or dead, is unintended and coincidental.
From Book 1: The erotic story of a young actress and her actor husband, and her first loving, disciplinary, over-the-knee spanking at his very firm hand. …Lydia makes the mistake of walking home alone past midnight through Hell’s Kitchen after a theater performance, and arrives home to a frightened, upset husband, determined to not back down on an earlier promise to spank her if this ever happened again… Read how the well-suited and adoring young couple find a compromise to his determination to correct her dangerous behavior by giving her a very sore bottom, and her equal determination to not submit to the somewhat terrifying prospect of painful physical discipline and loss of personal control. See how the two come to a loving reconciliation, even though Lydia does indeed consent to ending up with a sore and stinging behind at her husband’s hand.

From Book 11: Charlie and Lydia face the challenge of finding the necessary privacy to continue their “spanking marriage” with an active, curious toddler in their lives, and while Charlie films on location in remote areas of California, having brought his family with him for the location shoot. They deal with what to do when their two-year-old son sees part of a punishment spanking Charlie must give Lydia, then promptly the next morning, asks the questions a bright, curious child would ask. Plus Lydia and little Craig get into adventures and misadventures while roaming on location when Charlie’s busy filming. And not unexpectedly, some of those misadventures leave Lydia answering to Charlie once again as to why or whether she’ll be spanked.

Author Bio:
Sigrid Katrinsdatter is a pseudonym for an author who is a real-life “spanko.” Happily married for 20 years, with two beautiful daughters, the woman behind “Sigrid” has a decidedly alpha personality in every other aspect of her life other than spanking (where she is a contented “sub”), is a trial lawyer specializing in criminal defense, enjoys cats and dogs, and struggles with her attraction to and simultaneous discomfort with themes of domestic discipline in other authors’ works, as someone who believes wholeheartedly in female equality and full female agency. Yet readers will note “The Discipline for a Lasting Marriage Series,” makes clear DD appeals to her viscerally on some level as a fantasy, when administered by a dominant but clearly devoted and loving alpha male. Sigrid just launched the characters featured here — Lydia and Charlie — into a romantic series of spanking short stories and novels….up to 11 novellas and counting.
Monster Born by Kris Austen Radcliffe
About Monster Born by Kris Austen Radcliffe
Elves, werewolves, witches, vampires, and the patchwork son of Victor Frankenstein…
A little Penny Dreadful.
A tad bit Fargo.
All Northern Creatures.
Welcome to Alfheim, Minnesota.
I walked out of the Arctic and into Alfheim’s magic two centuries ago. The elves had no idea what to do with the giant, re-animated corpse in their midst other than to offer me what they had long offered all unloved and unwanted magicals — a home. Without elven magic, the Alfheim Werewolf Pack would descend into madness. Without the stability of the elves, the local vampires and witches would fall prey to their own evil natures. And without the elves, I would still be the rage-filled monster stitched together by my father’s genius and unholy hubris.
Now, I have a good life. I have family. Friends. A community that supports and protects me. But some ghosts from rage-filled pasts are more horrific than others. Some want to rip apart more than just my soul.
Some want my flesh. And now I must face a vampiric demon so powerful not even elven magic can stop it….
Join Frank Victorsson and the magical people of Alfheim, Minnesota, in Monster Born, the first novel in the new Northern Creatures series from Kris Austen Radcliffe.

Author Bio:
As a child, Kris took down a pack of hungry wolves with only a hardcover copy of The Dragonriders of Pern and a sharpened toothbrush. That fateful day set her on a path traversing many storytelling worlds—dabbles in film and comic books, time as a talent agent and a textbook photo coordinator, and a foray into nonfiction. After co-authoring Mind Shapes: Understanding the Differences in Thinking and Communication, Kris returned to academia. But she craved narrative and a richly-textured world of Fates, Shifters, and Dragons—and unexpected, true love.
Kris lives in Minnesota with her husband, two daughters, Handsome Cat, and an entire menagerie of suburban wildlife bent on destroying her house. That battered-but-true copy of “Dragonriders”? She found it yesterday. It’s time to pay a visit to the woodpeckers.

I’ve always loved to read.
As a teen I devoured literary classics during the day, while at night, I curled up in my bed under the covers with a flashlight devouring what my mother referred to as ‘trashy novels’, ending up bleary eyed and unable to focus in class.
I was a crummy student—but I was born to write.
Good fortune has afforded me the opportunity to devote myself to fiction full time. I really hope you enjoy reading my work as much as I enjoy writing it. And if you have any feedback on any of my stories, feel free to drop me a line. I love hearing from readers!

Reviews
“My two-year-old daughter Sophia LOVES this book! She asks me to read it to her several times a day, and she also loves Callie’s Wish (coming soon). Every time she sees a bee she says “Billy Bee!” She asks to read Billy Bee as soon as she wakes up in the morning and before she goes to sleep. Sophia loves the illustrations, the story, and the characters. When we get to the page when Jolly Jollie first comes into the story, she always exclaims, “Jolly Jillie!” She is only two now, so I’m not sure if she understands the valuable message in this book yet, but I know we will be reading this series for years to come, and soon my infant son Tristan will also love it. I know as they grow older they will begin to understand and learn from the lessons in this series. Thank you, Peter Thomas and John Mahomet, for creating a beautiful children’s series. We can’t wait for the rest of the books in this series!”

This Eternal Journey
You could read this book as one adventurous Australian woman’s life, loves, losses and triumphs across seven decades and four continents, the lively story of a life fully-lived. It’s a great story, interesting, entertaining and satisfying. But I think the best thing about this book is the insights shared – the why as well as the what and how.
There is no sugar-coating. Instead, there is a depth of understanding plus absolute honesty combined with insights gained that will have you nodding in recognition. And, perhaps, thinking back on events in your own life, seeing them, and your younger self, in a new and more forgiving light.

Her Alaskan Hero by Rebecca Thomas
About Her Alaskan Hero by Rebecca Thomas
After being left at the altar, California girl Sabrina Tate needs to make a fast getaway. With her famous overbearing parents and the paparazzi hot on her heels, where else is a jilted bride to go to lick her wounds but Alaska? With only her tropical honeymoon clothes in tow, she makes her escape. For two weeks, she’ll live on her own and prove to herself—and her family—that she can make it without a husband.
Zak Forrester is a man on a mission. He’s turned his rugged yet luxurious Alaskan lodge into a hotspot for hunters, all in the hope to make up for a painful event in his past. But when Sabrina—one of the rare women to enter his rugged realm—stumbles into his world, he can’t get rid of her fast enough. He has no time for her yoga, vegetarian meal requests, or Scrabble.
Soon, neither can resist the other, and two hearts collide. With time ticking away, they have to decide where they belong. Is a life in a different world better than being a world apart?
