Bad Habits by T. Patrick Brown
About Bad Habits by T. Patrick Brown
Haunted by childhood abuse, Veronica Howe is hell-bent on revenge. She confronts her abuser on the day he’s released from prison, but events quickly spiral out of control. Suddenly on the run, and also desperate to retrieve a beloved necklace that belonged to her late mother, Veronica embarks on a dangerous mission, but realizes she can’t do it alone.
Olivia Darby overcame childhood obesity to blossom into a gorgeous young woman who is desired by all. But the solace she found in the church during her early days of torment, inspires her to become a nun instead of pursuing ordinary romantic or material rewards. Lately, she has started to yearn for more, and she soon learns you should be careful what you wish for…
Unwaveringly pursued by Detective Felicity Starr, Veronica and Olivia become unlikely partners in a past-paced adventure where they must change and adapt, learn new skills, and avoid becoming prey to their own or others’… bad habits!

The Longest Rodeo by Rye Hart
About The Longest Rodeo by Rye Hart
Oh yes suga’ – I’m playing for keeps.
Years of prison couldn’t keep this cowboy away.
I took the fall for my brother.
But one gal’s memory kept me going.
I broke her heart once but now we have unfinished business.
My sweet Caroline.
The soft curves of her lips and her sweet innocence.
How could I forget that episode on the ferris wheel?
The sweet sounds of her moans and her warmth on my fingertips.
I’ve come back to our home town with one thing in mind.
But a dark secret about our families threatens to break what we once had.

Author Bio:
My love for writing began several years ago after an early retirement from a demanding job that I loved, but also hated because it consumed so much of my time. Now, I am able to focus my time on what I love. Writing romance has been a life long dream and to actually say that I am a published author is beyond what I would have ever expected.
Even though some may say I have a little naughtiness in my books, I look at it as an added bonus for my readers. After all what is a romance book without a little spice.
When I am not writing, I enjoy spending time with friends either at home or out on the town. Mostly, I enjoy a relaxing night at home where I can enjoy a glass of wine in the company of a good book.
Mister Kreasey’s Demon
Village teacher, Matt Kreasey, is reduced to paranoia by the street-hardened students in his new inner-city London post.
His student, Amy, lets him glimpse at love, but could she, too, be one of those gathering with the hunting knife which has already ended the life of his colleague ?
Can a paranoid stop himself from destroying the sunshine that she, alone, might have returned to his life, forsaking what enduring love could be ?
“Kreasey wondered whether his student had appeared before his immaculately groomed neighbour, Doctor Mallaby, in her very highest heels, the ones that gave Amy an extra three-and-a-half inches of height over a world that had always seemed to look down on her. On her first visit, he’d noticed, Amy was slightly undernourished and shivering in a short skirt with a slit up the side. She’d been clutching her essay to her low-necked top and he’d wanted to tell her that she’d made him happy enough – just by appearing on his doorstep with her essay and those eyes which spoke of deprivation and held, for him, openness more beautiful in itself than any he’d seen in any student before.”
She, alone among his students, had tried to help him but reduced to paranoia about his students, Matt has his first doubts about her intentions, despite her intimacy with him…
” ‘Well, are we going to see you in them?’ she smiled, still holding his shorts out like her trophy. But as he watched her lips they seemed to shape like those in a poorly dubbed film where the voice is out of sync’ with the words… reminding him now to ‘eat up’ all his tablets and that, then, he wouldn’t need to be ‘cut up’.”
The acute anxiety state kicked in again, the paranoia deepening, real love seeming to be no more than a cruel deception…
‘Long night teacher,’ his students seemed to chorus. ‘Long is for lithe, panting tiger waitin’ for you.’
Amy had slept with him but now something warm and fleshy had covered his eyes, the whole mattress had sagged deep beneath him, his body sprung with the bed… all was dark as moonless night.”
This title is currently reduced by 50% to $0.99 until 19 September 2017

Author Bio:
My fascination with character study led me to my degree in Psychology and Philosophy from the University College of North Wales and then as a college lecturer in English Literature which, combined with a fascination for the atmosphere I found in Daphne du Maurier’s “Rebecca”, all drove me to become a full-time writer of character studies, atmospheric mystery and suspense, with underlying romance and family/relationships.
Troubled souls; the outsider, the lonely, any driven to extremity, have been indispensable for my novels which you can sample and, I hope, download from the online bookstores I’ve included in the Home and Novel Excerpts & Samples sections of my website.
Of my novel based in Cyprus, “Aristo’s Family”, Barbara Erskine, best selling author of River of Destiny, has generously commented on the “beautifully observed characters, intriguing and atmospheric scenes and, above all, the suspense which made me want to read on”.
My favourite film producer is Alfred Hitchcock, and I suppose it is true to say that I have been most influenced in my writing by Patricia Highsmith, who always struck me as more interested in the psychological motives of the ‘why-done-it’ than the ‘who-done-it’. Of those who have sadly passed, Ruth Rendell, D H Lawrence and – particularly – Daphne du Maurier, have fired my enthusiasm while of those who, thankfully, still live, I enjoy the work of Ian McEwan and Susan Hill, author of The Lady in Black.
I suspect that my teaching of English Literature in colleges and then as a private tutor have in some measure informed my new suspense A Child from the Wishing Well.
This features an eerie music tutor, her young pupil Rosie and Rosie’s paranoid and inept father, Gerard, who nevertheless yearns to mean more to his daughter. Throughout, I think it is fair to say I was consumed with the question of whether Gerard, the paranoid father, could in the end fight his mental illness to grow closer to his daughter, Rosie, who is, emotionally, alone.
Other than being an author, I am a well-behaved ‘hubby’ and ‘ Pops’ to my dear daughter, Catherine. I confess to a passion for plump, docile tabbies and am moved by the music and life of the composer Edward Elgar, my interest leading me each year to a cottage in the Malvern Hills and to the Three Choirs Festival.

Let’s Take Berlin: Funny, True Stories from an American Girl in Berlin
About Let’s Take Berlin: Funny, True Stories from an American Girl in Berlin
**FREE until Sunday, September 17!** Peek inside the expat diaries of Jessica Guzik, an American writing living in Berlin.
At age 32, everything was going well for Jessica: She had a steady job, a sunny apartment in Washington, D.C., and a rotating lineup of Tinder dates. There was no reason to believe that, in a year’s time, Jessica would be living in Berlin, freelancing for $10 an hour, and feeling her way (yikes) through sex clubs. But Berlin has a way of sneaking up on people like that.
In Let’s Take Berlin, Jessica shares stories about night club romances, doner kebab obsessions, and public nudity neuroses. With a mix of enthusiasm, humor, and honesty, she shows you what everyday life is like in the “sexy-but-poor” capital of Germany. Weaving colorful observations with poignant personal stories, Jessica’s humorous essays will leave you feeling like a true Berliner—complete with club stamps on your wrist and a smile on your face.

The One Thing I Know
Talented studio musician, Henry Cole, is offered the dream job of touring with popular rock band, the Vulgar Details. Things aren’t all rosy, though, as he is hired to replace Dell Miller, creative force behind the band, who recently flamed-out in a car accident.
Henry is all too aware that he’s no replacement for someone like Dell. He’s not the only one who feels that way, either. Terry Blackwood, band front man, has been giving him a hard time even before the tour start. He seems to resent Henry’s presence beyond all reason. What Henry doesn’t know is that Terry and Dell’s relationship was both intensely close and fraught with conflict.
Terry’s grief over Dell’s death is overwhelming and threatens to destroy not only the band but his life. It doesn’t help that the new member of the band makes him feel things he doesn’t want to. Worse, when he sings, Henry sounds just like the man Terry cared so deeply for.
With so much at stake, everything could come crashing down around them and mean the end for the Vulgar Details. Or, just maybe, Henry and Terry will find the one thing they need most.
