Chateau of Desire by Monica Bentley
About Chateau of Desire by Monica Bentley
A boy, a girl, a knight, and a witch. What could possibly go wrong?
1355, France
Louis sharpens the rapiers of the Guard of Chateau Brionde. He trains with them too, transforming his skinny boy body into a finely toned warrior. All the while, he keeps his eye out for…
Phoebe was just a scrawny kitchen waif who cried a lot from too many beatings. She is now a luscious young woman who’s learned how to handle herself with grace. She’s still thinking about…
Remi used to work in the kitchen too. He took Phoebe under wing when she first arrived. But one mistake banished him. With nothing but the clothes on his back, he steals the gear to become a knight. Now he’s Sir Tristen, and he’s just escaped from…
Tempeste, the beautiful raven-haired witch, is trapped in her tower in the middle of the forest where she lures unsuspecting knights, holding each a prisoner as her sex slave, until they can give no more.
These four are brought together when Sir Tristen’s outlaw band sacks Chateau Brionde in a thrilling medieval battle. Amid this action-packed whirlwind of betrayal and jealousy, will true love shine through?
If you like a racy, adventurous romance that ends in happily ever after, then you’ll love Chateau of Desire.
For mature readers only.

Author Bio:
I spend my mornings covered to the neck, wrist, and ankle watching all those hard asses and harder abs walk by out of the corner of my eye at a conservative construction firm. Then, I go home and smother my babies with kisses after school.
In between, I dream up all-consuming stories that let you escape to exotic lands far away and exciting adventures with a healthy splash of steamy sex guaranteed to make a girl’s knees weak.
If you like triple-cream brie stories that slowly melt on the tongue, you’ll like mine. All the sex a girl can handle, sometimes raw and raunchy, sometimes sweet and gentle. Hunky and hard alpha males softly sweeping up innocent girls (who can be bad, too!) in a breath-taking romance that ends in HEA.
The Attraction File
Evaleen Bechmann is too busy running Human Resources for the billion dollar company, Mimir, to even consider dating. As for emotions, she refuses to discuss that too. It doesn’t matter anyway. She’s invisible to men, especially one man in particular. Evaleen is fine with that. Not everyone gets their happily ever after, that’s only for novels.
Edgar Mirmir is a Nordic god to some, a tech-savvy genius to others, and to women – he is everything they desire. His life should be perfect, and everything he has ever dreamed of… only it’s not. One woman haunts him. When he first saw her, her electric blue eyes shone with defiance, fear, and sorrow. He wanted to reach out to her, but she disappeared. Until one day he turned around and there she was.
The Attraction File continues the Cake Love series inspired by the popular character blog “Payne in the Blog” in a stand-alone book. If you like sassy heroines, playboy heroes, and office romances that make Bob in accounting blush, you will love Elizabeth Lynx’s idea of how stubborn love can be.

Open Mike
Open Mike: a tale of love, “moosic” and a number of pigs.
Mike Grimshaw runs the local grocery shop in the quiet Suffolk village of Peasenhall. While the eccentric nuances of rural life spin around him, Mike manages to stay sane by playing guitar at amateur Open Mic nights in his local pub, The Whipped Peasant. When Mike finds love with Jules, the resident midwife, he appears to finally have some control over his life. However, the close attentions of the pub’s award-winning French chef, and the ongoing battle for Open Mic supremacy between The Whipped Peasant and its close neighbour, The Startled Goose, ensure Mike’s troubles are far from over.
All, however, will be decided in the dramatic Battle of the Pubs finale.
In this side-splitting new satirical novel, readers will find a highly original story. The Suffolk-endearing tribute to everything open mic, and everything pub culture, is a slice of British life that rarely gets celebrated.

Now an elf named Killian has shown up with a gig. Seems Maggie’s uncle teamed up with the forces of darkness to turn Earth into a vampire convenience store, serving bottomless refills on humans.
The only hope for survival lies in tracking down two magical objects and a secret that vanished with Maggie’s dad.

Thriving in the Workplace with Autoimmune Disease: Know Your Rights, Resolve Conflict, and Reduce Stress
About Thriving in the Workplace with Autoimmune Disease: Know Your Rights, Resolve Conflict, and Reduce Stress
The #1 Amazon bestseller, Thriving in the Workplace with Autoimmune Disease is the first book ever to educate individuals specifically with autoimmune disease on their legal and disability rights in the workplace. The book was born out of author Holly Bertone’s personal and painful experience and lack of resources available specifically for individuals with autoimmune diseases. She walks you through the basics of navigating FMLA, EEO, reasonable accommodations, working with your boss, and then provides much needed resources to help you find that critical balance between taking care of your health and managing your symptoms at work.
Having an autoimmune condition or any other kind of invisible illness can be isolating. You may look and act totally fine on the outside, but you feel like your insides are slowly killing you and all you ever want to do is crawl under the covers and go to sleep.
It’s difficult enough for your family and spouse to understand what you are going through. It’s especially difficult in the workplace when your employer can’t “see” your condition and doesn’t understand why you are asking for flexibility or accommodations. You feel like no one understands. You feel like you have no voice.
This book is not going to tell you to give up and become a victim. The mission of this book is to empower you with knowledge so that you can rise above your illness and challenges and thrive both at home and in the workplace.

Author Bio:
My old life was boring. At times, it felt deathly so. I worked many hours more than the typical 40 per week. I was paid a pittance relative to my contributions. Almost a decade of my life was “lived” in this manner. Each day became a little less bright. So I made a change. I moved cross-country to a new city. Austin welcomed me with open arms.
I wanted a profession that valued creativity and imagination — something I could make me happy doing. Every night I would fall asleep to wonderfully crafted worlds. (We owe many thanks to numerous amazing authors for providing an escape from the tedium of our own lives.)
I switched careers. Now I write. I desire to contribute to the enjoyment of others. I have so many stories, so many characters in my head that would otherwise disappear if I didn’t. At the very least, I hope my stories can satisfy and entertain my children.
My greatest enjoyments are plots advancing at a brisk pace with protagonists pitted against overwhelming odds set in epic universes. I will strive for such qualities in my novels.
I am not partial to one genre. By the time I have written my last book, I would hope to have a series in every possible category of fiction.
If I’m not writing, you can probably find me people watching on 6th street or Congress, at one of the many concerts or festivals throughout Austin, or asleep next to my best friend, my Shih Tzu puppy, the protector of my backyard, the keeper of flatulence, the first of his name, the one and only, General Tso.
