Spending time in the small town of Paradox Lake, NY, is the last thing that Emily Hazard wants to do. Her childhood memories, including the despised nickname Jinx, are anything but fond. However, Emily’s brother Neal is deploying overseas and needs someone to stay with his teenage daughter Autumn while she finishes her senior year. Emily is going to attempt to juggle working remotely as an assistant art director for an advertising agency in New York City and keeping an eye on her niece.

With his career and life in flux, Drew Stacey is currently working for a group of non-profits that is planning to rent the Hazard family’s campgrounds on Paradox Lake for a summer program. Deciding it’s a good idea to have a man around while he is gone, Neal has asked Drew to stay at the house with Emily and Autumn while Drew prepares the campgrounds.

A minor fender-bender as soon as she hits town, has Emily battling old insecurities. However one person doesn’t view her as a slightly klutzy disaster magnet, and that’s the disturbingly attractive Drew. The spark between them is immediate, but Emily’s emotional blinders regarding the town, threaten to derail any prospect of a relationship. Can Emily see beyond the past?

They share a 175-year-old farmhouse on 12 acres just south of Albany, NY, with their daughter and son-in-law, two grandchildren, and a menagerie of pets. Their son lives nearby.

Author Bio:
Al and Sunny Lockwood met after he’d retired from engineering and she’d retired from daily newspaper reporting. They spent much of their time exploring California, Al with his camera and Sunny with her notebook and pen. But a serious car wreck changed their lives.

In 2012, while they waited at a red light, a driver paying more attention to her phone than her driving, slammed into them at 60 miles per hour. The collision totaled both cars and filled the Lockwood’s summer with doctor appointments, pharmacy visits, and endless wrangling with insurance companies.

The wreck also woke them up to the reality that life is fragile and there’s no guarantee you’ll have it for long. “We decided to stop putting off our travel dreams for some day in the future,” Sunny says. “We’ve made ‘someday’ today.”

Their first dream cruise was through the Panama Canal. They loved the trip so much, they wrote a book about it: Cruising Panama’s Canal, savoring 5,000 nautical miles and 500,000 decadent calories.

The book was a finalist in the 2014 National Indie Excellence Awards.

Then Al and Sunny visited Amsterdam and cruised the Mediterranean, stopping at Venice, Athens, Istanbul, Ephesus, and various Greek islands. This is the trip captured in “Travel Adventures for the young at heart.”

Together they’ve visited more than 30 countries on six continents.

Their travel memoir Cruising the Mediterranean won Best Non-Fiction Book from the 2016 Seven Sisters Book Awards, and also won the Gold medal in the 2016 Wishing Shelf Awards (Adult Non-Fiction Books category). It was a finalist (Nonfiction Narrative category) in the 2017 Best Book Awards.

“We write to encourage people to make their travel dreams come true,” Sunny says. “We want our readers to know that travel enhances health and enriches life. So step out of your everyday routine for a week or two and take a chance on adventure and fun.”



The Perfect Lie by A.L. Long  

The Perfect Lie by A.L. Long

How can I survive this game of cat and mouse?

I don’t know who to trust. There are so many lies. I see now I can’t trust the people closest to me—my father, my mother, the McCalls, and sadly Davian.

Davian would do anything to keep me safe, but is it for love or his own personal gain.

Rui Salko will stop at nothing to get what he wants, and he will kill anyone who gets in his way, and I fear that includes me.

I just pray that leaving Davian won’t be the biggest mistake I ever make.

The story between Davian Cross and Reyna McCall continues with Book Three of the Sinful Pleasures series. The Perfect Lie is a continuation of the Perfect Wife and The Perfect Escape. It is recommended that the series be read in order beginning with The Perfect Wife.

Author Bio:
Award-winning Author of the Independent Press Award and NYC Big Book Award. A.L. Long is also the recipient of the National Indie Excellence Award.

Some would call me a little naughty, but I see myself as a writer of spicy thoughts. Being a romance writer is something that I never imagined I would be doing. There is nothing more rewarding than to put your thoughts down in words and share them. I began writing in 2013 and have enjoyed every minute. When I first started writing, I wasn’t sure what I would write. It didn’t take me long to realize that romance would be my niche. I believe that every life deserves a little bit of romance; a little spice doesn’t hurt either. When I am not writing, I enjoy the company of good friends and relaxing with a delicious glass of red wine.



Picasso’s Motorcycle by Marc Sercomb  

Picasso’s Motorcycle by Marc Sercomb

France, 1940.
An unexpected gift of an old motorcycle with a tragically romantic past hurls a young orphan into the thick of things as war breaks out and his life changes forever. Half-French/half-German Daniel must find a way to survive in a world that mercy seems to have abandoned. This book transports the reader to Nazi-occupied France, where Daniel unwittingly and unexpectedly finds himself working for the Resistance, and ultimately to the Russian Front in a twist of fate so startling that no one can see it coming. In turn quirky, heartwarming, beguiling and uncompromising, author Marc Sercomb weaves together many moods and colors to tell young Daniel’s story. Beyond engaging, Picasso’s Motorcycle has been hailed as a genuine “page-turner” by those who have so far encountered it.

If you like “The Book Thief” and “The Boy in the Striped Pajamas,” you’ll love this book!

About Resistor (Ellinor, 1) by C.E. Clayton

Ellinor Rask has wanted one thing for the past eight years: vengeance. But when Ellinor is captured, she finds herself dragged back into the world she walked away from, entangled once more with friends she would rather forget.

As if that weren’t humiliating enough, Ellinor learns first hand that her magic can be stripped away by a piece of bio-tech—and her ex-boss is happy to leash her with the technology in order to get what he wants. If Ellinor behaves, the device will be removed. All she has to do is deliver a package. One containing a creature created from raw magical energy and discarded technology. Simple, right?

But when her goals start getting people murdered, Ellinor has to decide if the year’s planning, her honor, and even her own magic, are worth the lives it’s costing. Dodging ruthless gangsters, she finds herself on the run with a creature of immeasurable magical abilities alongside her one-time friends. Now, Ellinor must relearn to trust the people she once abandoned. She must put her faith in technology, and her life in the hands of independent contractors, all while racing to deliver the package before it gets taken by force, or worse, the creature decides to make an appearance itself.

Quinn has a rare and powerful gift, one that manifested from the rage and trauma of her harrowing childhood. Years later, the anger she can’t let go of makes her an unpredictable and dangerous weapon of last resort for a kingdom on the brink of war.

After a near loss in a key battle and the death of the Diviner of Fire, the Queen calls for aid from the elite soldiers of the allied territories to the East. A striking warrior named Kiran is assigned to protect and train Quinn, and as the pair become close despite the rules that bind them, they discover that the enemies within are just as dangerous as the ones at the gates.

Author Bio:
Brynne is a fan of velociraptors, the Alien movies (well, most of them), red wine, and wild adventures. She can relate nearly anything you say to a line from the movie Hot Fuzz. She has been trying unsuccessfully for years to convince her husband that they should acquire a pet mink to add to their menagerie of animals (what could possibly go wrong with that plan?!). Brynne has been everything from an archaeologist to a waitress, a deep-sea core analyst to an advertising account executive. For the last several years, she has been working in the field of neuroscience clinical research. Brynne has been writing since childhood and has published a non-fiction book under her real name, but she won’t tell you what it is unless you provide a live, fully trained velociraptor. When not busy at her day job or writing, Brynne can be found working with her husband and their son on their family farm in Nova Scotia, Canada, or enjoying her other passions which include riding horses, reading, and spending time with family and friends around a raclette and a bottle of wine. The Diviner is her debut novel.

About Featured Book: The Dolphin Law; A Story of the Seas by Linda Collister

On sale for $.99 for the month of March!

Relax into the beauty of human truth, reveling in love and our spiritual connection to all that is.
Do you ever sit there and wonder how we humans have become so disconnected from nature?

Ever question how it is that we seem to have lost our way with the natural flow of life?

The ups and downs and turmoil of our fast-paced world leave us without a solid grounding in the foundation of our spiritual truth — it often seems we humans have lost our way.

The dolphins see this, too. They know of our past and of how we have drifted into a cloud of confusion and disconnect.

Many of them had given up on our return to a resonance of peace with mother nature. The dolphin law even forbids any dolphin from ever trying to establish contact with us again.

But a mother’s love will always do what it must — especially when the life of her young one is on the line.

The heart of humanity, of course, will forever be there to support those in need.

A story of re-established trust and love shows us that the bond between land dweller and ocean goer is just as strong now as it had ever been before.

A rediscovering of human and animal cohabitation serves as a beautiful reminder that no matter how lost we may become as a human species, at the end of it we are all one in spirit.

Stepping into an underwater world of confusion, chaos, and pleas for help from anyone able will remind you of our connection to all living beings and help bring those questions of our disconnect to a standstill.

We are each only as far from nature as we choose to be, sometimes we just need a little healthy reminder of our truth.

In Dolphin Law, you’ll discover:

A beautiful tale of how man and dolphin have wired together to make the impossible become something real and alive
The beauty and complexity with which dolphins nurture their children just as a human mother would
How dolphins connect on seemingly telepathic wavelengths, and why this is so advantageous to their survival in the wild
Insight into the beauty of how a mother dolphin teaches her young to survive
A dolphin’s tale of human retreat into the unknowing wilderness of land and disconnect from the freedom of the vast ocean
How one woman established communication with a dolphin mother and helped save her young one’s life
… and much more!

Dive into an ocean of remembrance and the beautiful connection of two kindred spirits.

From the depths of the great big blue, all the way into the compassionate heart of one young woman, a story of love and unity will bring us all together as we fight for each of our survival — side by side and into the sunsets of eternity.
