  1. Wolf Running by Toni L.H. Boughton

    image9About Wolf Running by Toni L.H. Boughton:

    Nowen is an amnesiac woman whose first memories are of the world we know passing away. She awakes in a hospital with no knowledge of herself or how she got there. In light of what is happening everywhere else, however, these problems become insignificant. A strange new virus is sweeping the planet, killing millions.

    And a vast majority of those that die come back as mindless creatures, intent on devouring their prey – humans.

    In this desolate new reality Nowen has only one person she can trust; a young nurse named Jamie. And when they get separated Nowen will fight both the living and the dead to get back to her friend.

    On her journey from the untamed mountains of Wyoming to a ruined city in Colorado, Nowen must also fight with an unexpected foe: the wild wolf with which she shares her body and mind.

    Author Bio:
    Toni L. H. Boughton has been reading since she was four years old. She grew up in libraries and bookstores; in fact, her one rebellious act during her teenage years was to run away from home – to the library! Toni has worked in libraries and bookstores all her life, and for many years longed to be a writer. Finally she decided to stop making up excuses not to write and just write!

    Reading “The Stand” by Stephen King at an early age inculcated a love of apocalyptic fiction in Toni. Reading ” The Shining” at an even earlier age set in stone a love of horror novels. Some of her favorite authors include Stephen King, Jeff Long, Justin Cronin, Robin McKinley, and Ben Tripp. She never misses an episode of “The Walking Dead” and is addicted to MST3K.

    Toni Boughton lives in Wyoming with too many cats. She works for the University of Wyoming, and likes to read, play video games, and escapce to the Snowy Range whenever she has any free time.

    She has a fairly interesting blog: http://tlhboughton.blogspot.com/

    Author Bio:
    I started writing at the tender age of fifteen, when I lost touch with my father due to difficult circumstances. However, I am blessed to say that I survived those times with the help of my creative writing abilities, which were later recognized by both my honors English teachers and some very reputable English professors. One of them, Dr. Virginia Spencer Carr, was a Pulitzer Prize finalist for both The Lonely Hunter: A Biography of Carson McCullers and Dos Passos: A Life. Dr. Carr was not only my professor and my mentor, but she was also a very dear friend with whom I shared many visits and a passion for good food and tea. Along the course of this friendship, she wrote a letter to my graduate program, a quote from which still tenderly haunts my memories: “I have known [this person] both in and out of the classroom…[they have] assisted me in a number of special projects…a very creative person…in ways of examining issues that had not previously occurred to me…[and] I can see where [the] compassion, intellect, judgment, integrity, and maturity…come from.” Striking educators such as Dr. Carr have made me who I am today—a writer and educator who got lost somewhere in the hustle and bustle of life. I ended up teaching physics and biology for a living, but my soul remained that of a writer. Today, I write to endorse different charitable organizations that have touched my heart, and every book has a special dedication indicating that a portion of all my net sales go to that special charity. Therefore, I encourage you to read my books and help these foundations!

  3. The 6th of November

    IMG_20140125_191804About The 6th of November:

    In The 6th of November, Pablo weaves a complex but fluid narrative that combines fragments of history with the intricacies of love, family, and politics. The reader is thrown into a world that is both exciting yet frightening, with characters that, at every turn, are as visible as the story itself. Pablo’s narrative, to a large extent, defies every traditional definition of technique and style, as he lavishly combines and floats from realism to magic realism, masterly using both to tell this intricate story. The 6th of November is not for those who enjoy bland and conventional narratives; it is one of those little volumes that will stay around for a long time

    Author Bio:
    Hi. I’m Opal Carew and I write erotic romance for St. Martin’s Press.

    I’ve been writing since 1993, though originally I wrote futuristic, urban fantasy, science fiction, paranormal and contemporary romance. These stories are set in the present, future, or alternate realities and most of my stories are steamy. I am now republishing these under the name Amber Carew.

    As Opal Carew, I write erotic romances which always have a romance and a happy ending.

    So why do I like writing erotic romance? I like being able to push beyond traditional boundaries. I like dealing with a woman who is growing and evolving – questioning her sexual boundaries and pushing past them. I have been writing stories that involve multiple characters and it’s fascinating to work with the interactions between them. What fun to write a heroine choosing between two equally appealing heroes? My current project involves a group of several people who interact sexually and I find the scenario an enjoyable challenge.

    I try to keep my characters real. I like to have a heroine with whom the reader can empathize. These aren’t women who just jump into bed with anyone. They find themselves in an unusual situation – something exciting and erotic – but a situation where they have to push themselves beyond their comfort level. As a result, they grow as a person. So often fear holds us back – of what others will think of us, of what we will think about ourselves – and we don’t follow our hearts. These women push past that fear.

  6. The Unorthodox Arrival of Pumpkin Allan by Suzie Twine

    Front-Cover-for-adverts-copyAbout The Unorthodox Arrival of Pumpkin Allan by Suzie Twine:

    An uplifting and moving story of an urbanite couple’s move to an unexpectedly quirky country hamlet.

    Tom falls off his mountain bike three days before buying their cottage, leaving a pregnant Lois and her close friend to collect the keys. The horrors that greet them have Lois sick with worry that she should never have persuaded Tom to leave London. But as they settle into their new community, Lois uncovers a wonderfully eclectic mix of friends, enemies, crooks and eccentrics whose strength of character astound her.

    Lois and Tom’s rapid series of major life events culminates in high drama, with their wedding and the birth of the baby in very quick succession and a melodramatic twist, as uninvited guests arrive at the home delivery.
