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.

Author Bio:
Two of AA Abbott’s books, including BRIGHT LIES, have won Chill with a Book Readers’ Awards. A British psychological thriller writer in sleepy south-west England, she used the locale for BRIGHT LIES, but set the last half of the book in Birmingham. It’s the buzzy English Midlands city where she was a wage slave before finally plunging into writing full-time. The up and coming Digbeth area, still rough around the edges, is where Jack lives in a squatted factory building and works in a trendy club.

AA Abbott relies on an army of beta readers and professional editor Katharine D’Souza to polish her books, and hopes you like the result!

About Purple Hearts by Arthur Archaambeau

Everyone has a war story to tell

A jaded cop struggling to come to terms with her past falls for an idealistic former Marine-turned-cat rescuer on the crime-infested streets of West Baltimore.

Hope Kennedy is a cynical Baltimore cop. Her beat is the Mondawmin area of West Baltimore—the most dangerous neighborhood in America’s most dangerous city. And she’s struggling—unsuccessfully—to overcome a terrible event that has come to shape her life. Hope’s become angry and bitter. She’s spiraling out of control. Hope has lost hope.

Luke Matthews is a decorated Marine Corps combat veteran. He received the Purple Heart for a wound inflicted in Afghanistan. Now, he works as a carpenter for a nonprofit that builds homes for disabled vets. In his spare time, he volunteers with a local cat rescue. But Luke’s battling his own demons. He’s haunted by the war. Specifically, by a fog of war experience—a tragic accident—that has left him racked with guilt.

When Hope and Luke meet in a dingy alley, it’s anything but love at first sight. But a near-fatal accident a week later forges a bond. Eventually, in the middle of a cold Baltimore winter, a romance heats up. Little-by-little, Hope and Luke help one another feel alive again.
But Hope doesn’t know how to process her past, a past that is now jeopardizing her future. And as she and Luke get closer, she questions whether she’s worthy of his love.

Can two wounded, badly bruised, purple hearts come together and help one another heal?
Purple Hearts is not for the faint of heart. It’s as tough and gritty as the city it’s set in. It’s a slow burn, blue-collar romance about going the distance. And finding unconditional love at the end of the journey.

And along this journey, Hope and Luke meet a memorable cast of supporting characters—a no-nonsense police sergeant who practices tough love. A colorful late-night radio DJ. A homeless Vietnam veteran. A repentant mobster. A precocious young boy who seems to be in the know. A mysterious emergency room physician. A street cat looking for his forever home. And a little girl fighting cancer.

Purple Hearts is a story about life and death, joy and sorrow, laughter and tears—and ultimately, hope. All wrapped in the love of two perfectly imperfect human beings.

About Soup: The Future Is Past And Present by Travis Haugen

Scott Yonge exploded onto the national consciousness at the 2001 Garrett Awards and quickly rose to legendary status on the wings of his music and his whirlwind romance with independent film actress Michelle Zoe. What should have been a perfect life was interrupted by an ultra-right wing militant group called the American Freedom Force and its leader, Colonel Randall, who forces Scott to choose between his life and that of his son. After his heroic sacrifice, his family is left to pick up the pieces and forge ahead to a future in the vacuum he left behind.

Now, in 2021, his son Hedley inherits music for himself, becoming a star in his own right as technology gives new life to the medium. Scott’s daughter, affectionately known as Soup, throws herself into unravelling the mysteries of her family’s history. Michelle commits herself to keeping them all together and trying to make sense of life without the one she loves. Through it all, the AFF looms in the shadows, threatening to resurrect the pain they have just begun to overcome.

In the first of his new series, Travis Haugen explores the reaches of the near future through his love of music, technology, and the unbreakable bonds of family. This book includes digital access to twenty-four original songs created by the author to bring the story and its characters to life.

Author Bio:
I’m a Canadian prairie boy. I spent over 40 years of my life as a musician, travelling across Canada and the US playing nightclubs and honky-tonks. It was a great way to make a living.
I drifted into writing out of that. A song I wrote put me there. The books came from the song; the song came from loneliness. That song was “I Call Your Name”. Back in 2001, we were the house band at The St. Louis Hotel in Calgary. One night after hours, I sat on my bed, picked up my acoustic, and out came the song. I played it through a few times, decided I liked it, jotted down the lyrics and turned out the lights. Later, I bolted upright from my sleep in a sweat, jumped up to my computer and began typing. I typed until I collapsed. When I woke, I read what I had (47 pages), and got right back to writing. I was in the fire. I never looked back. That book became the first in the One Song series. There are now four. “I Call Your Name” started the process.
Anytime I can, I love to head to the outdoors with my camera, hiking with my niece, Candy, and any number of family and friends who wish to come along. The comedy team of Carl and Murphy (Candy’s two small dogs) is always with us. I’m also deep into Canadian Postal History, especially the Small Queens era of Canada, circa 1870-1897. Life is good.
