Witch Dust: A Paranormal Comedy Thriller (Witch Series Book 1) by Marilyn Messik

WHEN YOU GROW UP WATCHING YOUR FATHER
CUT YOUR MOTHER IN HALF MOST NIGHTS,
IT’S HARD TO DEFINE NORMAL.

Daughter of Adam Adamovitch, God’s gift to women and Theatre, and the lovely Ophelia, who can throw a hissy fit faster and farther than anyone; life for Sandra was always going to have challenges. When Adam’s wandering eye lights on yet another conquest, it proves a chorus girl too far, and Sandra’s caught in the reverberations of an acrimonious parting.

Coerced into restoring her depressed mother to the bosom of a family Sandra never knew existed, she’s sucked into a situation that even for her – and she’s had years of bizarre – is seriously unnerving. One thing’s for sure, the sooner she puts as much distance as possible between herself and the newfound nearest and dearest with their alarming tendencies and failing hotel business, the happier she’ll be.

She just has to sort a few small issues – a possessed chef, a hanged housemaid and a fly-on-the-wall documentary. And then there’s the wolf, the doppelgänger, the crazed shape-shifter, and an age-old grudge. Things slide swiftly from bad to farce and then turn a hell of a lot darker. One minute Sandra’s trying to save the family business, the next she’s battling to save their lives. You couldn’t make it up!

Author Bio:
Marilyn Messik Briefly.
Personal: Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Book Lover, Housework Hater.
Professional: Author of Paranormal Thrillers & Business Books (taking care not to mix the two!)
Default setting: Mild Hysteria.

I started out writing features and fiction for various national magazines, was a columnist for Mother & Baby, and when my children were small set up a home-based business, growing a team of ladies buying children’s party goods from me to sell on. I also trained as an ante-natal teacher. Smugly thought everything was going rather well, until the husband said if he opened one more cupboard and another pack of Mr Men plates landed on his head he was leaving!

Tough decisions, but I opted for the husband and opened a shop – probably the only one where impatient customers were advised to hang on and breathe in short pants! Following the creation of our popular Busy Bags (saving the sanity of parents travelling with children) I was able to open a second shop, adding books and educational toys to the mix.

When I sold the shops, I set up U.S. Welcome Booking & Planning, creating tailor-made, off-the-beaten-track trips, to the six New England states. With the growth of the service and to make information more available, I published U.S. Welcome Selected Hotels & Inns, an annual, full colour guide which showcased independent accommodation all over America, and ran until I sold out to a FTSE 100 company.

At that point I dipped a toe or two into the vintage world, dealing in antique illustrated children’s books and postcards. Problem was, once started, couldn’t stop, and spent a great deal of time ferreting in cobwebby attic corners, or scraping the bottoms of boxes in garage sales, The more wonderful public domain images gathered, the more apparent it became they had plenty to say – which was how the Vintage Ladies Collection gift books took flight.

I currently run a copywriting consultancy Create Communication. I’m still writing fiction, features and editorials, have blogged for The Telegraph Online, written four Paranormal Novels, and four Business Books.

Return to Cupid, Texas Series Box Set by Sylvia McDaniel

The First Three Books in the Return to Cupid, Texas Series
Nothing says bad judgement like trying to prove a superstition true…

Taylor Braxton, along with a few adventurous girlfriends, decides to test one such superstition on Valentine’s Day – the day Taylor’s ex-fiancé is to be married. A few bottles of wine help lower her inhibition and go a long way to giving her the courage to try to heal her broken heart. After all, Taylor reasons, what is the worst thing that can happen – the superstition of finding her true love might come true?

Sheriff Ryan Jones is used to getting calls about the odd dancing around the downtown fountain. When you live in Cupid, Texas, there were always some residents who believed if you dance naked around the fountain, you were guaranteed to find your true love. What he doesn’t expect is to find the lovely, but spirited, Taylor Braxton confronting him at midnight – sans clothing. Unfortunately, a long-held promise and his badge stand between him and what he wants – Taylor.

Will the Cupid Superstition help Taylor and Ryan overcome the past and take a chance on love again? Or will a promise he made to her best friend, and his career, deflect Cupid’s arrow?

Dancing naked around Cupid’s fountain seemed like a good idea…until the law showed up.

Meghan Scott is not a typical school librarian. When her girlfriends convince her to test the Cupid superstition and dance naked around the statue, she reluctantly agrees. Eager to find her soulmate and start a family Meghan reasons, nothing else has worked.

Former professional football player, Max Vandenburg can’t believe his eyes, when he sees Meghan Scott running down the street naked. Seven years ago she broke his heart and did the unthinkable. Rescuing Meghan is the first step in finally learning the truth, but when she refuses to discuss the past, can he charm the real story from her?

When Cupid’s arrow is aimed straight at their hearts, can two high school sweethearts learn everything in the past is not what it seems?

Will dancing naked around Cupid’s fountain bring love…or only heartache?

Much to her overprotective brothers dismay, Kelsey Lawrence seems to attract trouble. After two bottles of wine, her girlfriends convince her to test the Cupid superstition. Except the law shows up sending her fleeing in her birthday suit, running into the arms of her brothers best friend.

Cody must be dreaming when he sees Kelsey Lawrence running down the street bare assed naked. The strictly off limits, pampered sister of his best friend has always gotten into mischief, but this time she’s gone too far. When the lovely and spirited Kelsey convinces him to let her stay at his place…the adventure begins.

Have they fallen under the Cupid superstition and found a lasting love?

About The Accidental Archmage: Book One – Ragnarök Rising by Edmund A.M. Batara

An epic fantasy in another world.

What if you fell through a crack in reality and find yourself in a strangely familiar world? Like those people disappearing in plain sight you’ve read about.

A world full of magic, Earth’s mythological beings, lost civilizations, and people from its primitive and brutal past? Where gods play games among themselves, with the fate of mortal men as pawns. A land where a sword is deadlier than a five-inch-thick contract drawn by a hotshot lawyer. Would you survive?

That’s Tyler West. Alone, lost, and bewildered, the three moons in the sky made it clear he wasn’t on Earth anymore. It’s not a game. It’s real. And there’s no coffee, pizza, fries, or his favorite show on HBO.

About Frontier Forever

In the wake of machine enslavement, Earth has become a reservation for the way life had once been. The Naturalist priesthood implements an embargo to protect humanity’s homeworld from the ravages of technology, but corruption has set in, and the world’s first Athena-class Marshal is sent to investigate.

“Brutal, oppressive and delightfully intriguing”

“Somehow futuristic and nostalgic at the same time”

“Couldn’t put it down”

It’s like Mad Max and Dune, with a touch of The Matrix.

Born fully-grown and endowed with extensive pre-educational training, the Marshal thought she was ready for anything. After reluctantly accepting an AI sidekick housed inside robotic armor for her arm, however, problems with the device’s installation lead to intense internal conflict, and they quickly find themselves at the heart of a massive conspiracy.

Dirty migrant labor, roaming herds of intelligent animal hybrids, and a growing army of poachers illustrate how gruesome the universal Mecca has become. Those living amongst the stars consider Earth as a grand experiment to restore Natural Order, but life inside of the hermetically sealed bubble has grown unstable and stale. Survival of the fittest doesn’t mean what it used to, as a mysterious monster is roaming the southlands.

The great Tribal Nations seem to be at peace, but young Rhodes is the first to suspect foul play. Less than a year early, his twin brother Pathos went missing, and he cannot accept it was due to natural causes. Tormented by grief and guilt, he goes to live with his surrogate animal family, unaware that he is tangled in the same sinister web as the Marshal.

Full of thermalpunk action and adventure, this frightening look at the future forces a closer look at the problems of today. Diverse characters explore the differences between humans, animals, and machines, all while struggling against technological dependence, economic violence, and systemic racism.

Under the Plateau is the first book in the Frontier Forever series, and the sequel, Blood Beneath Water, is due for release later this year. A unique illustration precedes each of the thirty-three chapters in both the paperback and Kindle versions.

About Chef Sugarlips by Tawna Fenske

I’ve loved Amber since I wore Batman Underoos, but she doesn’t know I exist. Not until she knocks me unconscious with a dead turkey.

Now I can’t stay away, and it’s only a matter of time ‘til she learns my big secret. Not my recipe for beef bourguignon, but the secret one no one knows. Not even my siblings who’ve spent endless hours with me dreaming up our new luxury resort and oh yeah, getting to know each other since we grew up with different moms.

But the more I’m with Amber, the surer I am she’s my dream girl. Brains, beauty, and the business smarts to turn a reindeer ranch into a quirky wedding venue. Did I mention she’s perfect?

Then my mom shows up stewing like a pot set to boil over, and suddenly I’m not sure I can keep a lid on things. Can the guy in the white chef’s hat be the hero who gets the girl and saves the day, or will it all fall flatter than a burnt soufflé?
