  1. A Christmas House -

    IMG_ACH_BKAbout A Christmas House:

    “A Christmas House” is the perfect book for anyone who has ever: built a house, worried about getting old, been single, been married, experienced sibling rivalry, delivered a baby, or spent the holidays with their relatives!

    Born on Christmas Day, Abigail Addison was turning sixty this year. Even though she didn’t look old, every now and then she felt old. So, when Fred her husband of thirty-five years invites the family down to spend Christmas together in the house he’s been building on an island off the coast of Georgia, she decides to surprise him by selling their old home and embracing a life together at the beach.

    It’s Abigail, however, who is surprised when she gets there to discover Fred’s beautiful red brick house with white columns is somewhat lacking inside … lacking paint, lacking plaster, lacking walls!

    As each member of the family arrives they see a different house. Fred sees it for what it will be. Abigail sees it for the unfinished mess it is. Their three grown daughters, Margaret, Babs, and Lizbeth (eight months pregnant!) recognize it as an exact replica of the house they grew up in and reminisce about growing up in an unfinished home.

    But it’s Abigail who sets everything in motion. Unable to tell anyone what she has done, she refuses to stay in the house for even one night and insists on finding a hotel room on Christmas Eve. As in the original Christmas story there are no rooms to be found. So it’s up to the others at the height of the chaos, as Lizbeth goes into labor, to figure out a way to make a house with no walls … a home.

  3. The Spirit of a Sultan -

    spiritofasultanAbout The Spirit of a Sultan:

    Embark on an enlightened journey of spiritual joy, love and peace with author Ahmad Javid’s new book, The Spirit of a Sultan. This new work guides readers along a metaphysical path as the author explores the life of one of the most venerated Sufi poets and saints, Hazrat Sultan Bahu.

    The Spirit of a Sultan is a mystical new novel based on the true life accounts of Sufi reverend, poet, and saint, Sultan Bahu. A historical biography reminiscent of Autobiography of a Yogi, the novel uses a slight fictional component to create a spiritual atmosphere throughout the story. A spellbinding tale of enlightenment, this wonderful book follows Sultan Bahu’s life history and spiritual journey while showing us all how to connect with God in our hearts and minds. Written in an extraordinarily unique and intriguing style, The Spirit of a Sultan portrays the true account of a saint who shares a great many parallels with Guatama Buddha.

    Until now, this transcending and fully-illumined spiritual master’s extraordinary life has been shared largely through oral tradition. But, Ahmad Javid has brought to life an inspiring account of Sultan Bahu’s ancient teachings that will raise one’s spirit to greater heights and invigorates the love of God that stirs in their heart.

    The Spirit of a Sultan closely follows Sultan Bahu’s compelling personal history and his impact on the world. Although it is a historical account of his life, author Ahmad Javid deftly infuses a slight fictional arc to sustain a spiritual atmosphere throughout the story.

  4. Monday and Beyond: Blessings and Curses -

    mondayandbeyondAbout Monday and Beyond: Blessings and Curses:

    In the sequel to Monday Afternoon, our hero Angelo Aiello is beset with new troubles amid old temptations. Attempting to cleave his growing disability from past moral transgressions, at least in his own mind, in the midst of an exasperating marriage, Angelo encounters big scenes of trial and self-doubt as he persists in questing anew for meaning in life, and new chances for fulfillment.

    The results, in big scenes that are capable of summoning up Dante and Tristram Shandy at the same time, is a daunting yet fully voiced narrative of a refusal to yield to the inroads made by middle-aged MS even as it brings Angelo and his wife Alice to a place of moral reckoning and bargaining, both with the disease and with each other. Will the shadow of Monica Richardson, femme fatale from Connecticut, ever allow full sunlight again?

    Survival in such straits depends, it seems, on time and tides, as this colorful yet fully reflective narrative tracks a moral compass that often spins in challenging, bewildering ways… but, you be the judge!

  7. Agent Mouse -

    AgentMouse_COVER_RevBAbout Agent Mouse :

    Ioan is a small, quiet and shy ten-year-old who, not surprisingly, everyone, including his mother and stepfather, calls Mouse. The only thing about Mouse which made him different from most other quiet and shy 10-year-olds was that he had a very real and vivid imagination. Most children daydream from time to time, especially during boring lessons, but Mouse ‘lived’ in his dreams, the real world was rarely visited! He was forever fantasising about being some kind of superhero – Agent Mouse. Mouse is still coming to terms with the tragic loss of his real father. His alter ego – Agent Mouse – helps him to cope when the family move to live in Conway and he gets on the wrong side of, Biston, the school bully. But a school trip to scale the majestic heights of Snowdon has unexpected consequences and Mouse’s life will never be quite the same again.

    Author Bio:
    Those who know me – an ugly six foot, 17 stone former rugby player – may be surprised to discover that as a schoolboy I suffered at the hands of bullies.

    Back in the day, as an innocent 11-year-old, I was a shy and self-conscious, lower middleclass kid, trying to find his way in the world.

    I was targeted by a gang of boys from a nearby council estate. It may seem stereotypical and politically incorrect to some but the truth was they were rough and ready and lacking in the same Sunday school-decent upbringing as I had enjoyed – and so they picked on me, not exclusively, but I guess they saw me as an easy target.

    On one occasion I can remember being lined up against the railings of the local swimming pool and being told to empty my pockets before being relieved of my money. For a while after that I was wary of venturing through certain parts of the village alone. It’s a horrible feeling, as a youngster, to be afraid of other kids and telling your parents is not really an option for some strange kid’s code of honour thing.

    Then there was another kid, perhaps five years older, who for some reason took delight in threatening to beat me up whenever we crossed paths – I can still recall peddling my bike like hell to get away from him as he screamed, I’m going to kill you!’

    I couldn’t understand why a relative stranger, who I had never properly met, hated me so much.

    Happy days!

    I have revisited those dark moments ahead of the launch of my latest novel for young adults, Agent Mouse – Snowdon Adventure, with iPonymous Publishing Ltd.

    One of the main themes is coming to terms with the unwanted attentions of a bully and how it can cause all sorts of anxiety and fear in a child.

    Being a book for young adults the situation eventually resolves itself – no point writing something bleak and dark and expecting primary schools to place it on their reading lists!

    The narrative also gives a glimpse of the story behind the bully and a possible explanation – if not excuse – for his actions.

    For those who may think I’m jumping on the anti-bullying message, which is one of the hottest tickets in the publishing industry at the moment, the book was written almost 20 years ago when I was a fresh faced, if frustrated, teacher.

    The original intention was to write something that actually engaged the boys in my class who only really considered picking up a book in order to throw it at someone. So I invented a cool character who got into all kinds of scrapes, included a spot of cartoon-type violence and gave the hero a wicked line in… well… one-liners; and Agent Mouse was born.

    I also threw in the sensitive stuff about lacking confidence and dealing with personal loss to create a novel which engaged – I want to say girls as well as boys but that would be totally simplistic – all types.

    The overwhelming majority of that class of 36 children, especially the boys, really enjoyed the book.

    Then it sat on a shelf for the best part of two decades until a chance meeting with Tim Prosser of iPonymous resulted in a recall and reworking (I added email introductions to chapters to bring it up-to-date).

    While Tim is excited about the prospect of launching Agent Mouse – Snowdon Adventure, it is quite disheartening to realise that its plot driving issues such as bullying, lack of confidence and feelings of loss are just as relevant to the young readers of today as they were when the book was dreamed up; let’s just hope that support networks for youngsters who face such potential barriers to happiness in real life have better support today. Queue the saccharine – but seriously true – statement; hopefully Agent Mouse – Snowdon Adventure will help youngsters speak-out and address these perpetually important issues.

    In signing off, just like Agent Mouse – Snowdon Adventure, true-life sometimes, just sometimes mind you, has happy endings. When I began playing senior rugby I was signed by one of the top sides in my valley. When I turned up for training I discovered that there was a weedy little fullback who turned out for the club’s third team. I instantly recognised him as being the older boy who had tormented me!

    Now I could quite easily have smashed him to bits during a practice game but two wrongs do not make a right.

    Years later I’ve had my revenge but in book form!

  8. A Touch of Pigskin -

    a-touch-of-pigskin_front-coverAbout A Touch of Pigskin:

    Piers Prideaux’s promising career at an Oxford College is brought to an abrupt end following the intervention of a new master, one Sebastian Slope. It is not quite as simple as that, matters in Oxford never are. In defending himself Prideaux is directly responsible for Slope being sacked, arrested and jailed for fraud. Years later Slope returns to Oxford and it becomes clear that he is bent on revenge.

    Slope is the leader of a group of dangerous men who are members of a group descended from an ancient Cornish secret society known as the Spriggans. Prideaux is forced to go on the run with his oldest best friend William Radleigh de Beaune, aka Billy Bones, an aristocrat fallen on hard times. As Slope pursues his deadly obsession anyone associated with Bones and Prideaux is in great danger.

    This is a dark and brilliant surreal thriller that is best described as an extended version of Inspector Morse as if written by the Monty Python crew. Dai Blatchford has written a glittering, fantastical, cunningly contrived novel that leads the reader down a labyrinth of fear and dread. Rich with humour, character and incident – He’s the kind of writer who makes you want to nag your friends until they read him so that they share the pleasure.

He divides his time between Oystermouth Castle, Underhill Park (Mumbles RFC) and Café Valance. He is married to Rosie and has two grown up children and a granddaughter. He is very happy in a Celtic sort of way. He is currently working on a sequel to A Touch of Pigskin, provisionally titled Garibaldi’s Overcoat.

  9. The Final Mile by Cal Smyth -

    TheFinalMileCOVER_BoostedAbout The Final Mile by Cal Smyth:

    A man who has lost everything. Push him a little further. And he’s going to fight back… Ryan Morgan is a good guy, a family man who runs his own business and lives by the rules. But when his business is liquidated, his house repossessed and his wife leaves him, Ryan starts to question the system. For years, the rich have ripped us off. It’s time someone made them pay. Seeking payback, Ryan treks cross-country through a broken Britain menaced by an economic crisis. With nothing left to lose, Ryan cuts a brutally sweet swathe through the murky greed and corruption of bankers, CEOs and politicians whose skewered morals and hypocrisy have crippled a nation. A stunning tale of morality and justice in which a simple, honest man is transformed into a killer, The Final Mile depicts a moral turnaround in the vein of TV’s Breaking Bad. A story ripped from the headlines of tomorrow’s newspapers. A biting social commentary of both the jobless hordes and the glitzy, gold-plated world of dirty deals and fat cat cronyism. A resonant wish-fulfilment thriller that is cinematic and sparse genre writing at its very best. With nods to Richard Stark, Elmore Leonard and George Pelecanos, Cal Smyth has written a tale of revenge that challenges and entertains in equal measure: a blazing read that burns off the page, righteous indignation rippling through every heart-stopping moment… Cal Smyth’s first novel, Wrong Way Around, is also available here http://amzn.to/19ee38C “A heart-racing thriller. If this novel doesn’t get your pulse racing, you need to check your meds” Literary Journal “One hell of a read. A gripping mix of murder and mayhem” The Chronicle “A stunning new thriller that will provoke much debate” The Book Reporter

    Author Bio:
    The economic crisis was just hitting home. Not only were banks bankrupt, whole countries were in need of bailouts. But while the taxpayer bailed out the banks, the CEOs were giving themselves bonuses. I’m no economic whiz. If I was, maybe I’d be working in The City instead of teaching and writing. But something just didn’t add up. And every time I saw the headlines, I felt sick. Physically sick. Luckily there were photos of Bob Diamond and George Osborne in the accompanying articles to mop it all up.

    Out of this, came the initial idea for The Final Mile. The Government came out saying it was time to stop the banker-bashing. I didn’t think there had been enough. Various CEOs and bankers were getting away with ripping Britain off (and still are), so I wanted a fictional protagonist who would make them pay.

    I’m not particularly political and I wasn’t after some polemic. The protagonist couldn’t be an anti-capitalist activist as that would be too obvious. It had to be the last person who would try to take down the system. In The Final Mile, Ryan Morgan is a good guy, a family man who lives by the rules. It’s only after his business is liquidated, his house repossessed and his wife leaves him, that he takes action.

    As I planned the novel, I referred back to Point Blank by Richard Stark and Valdez is Coming by Elmore Leonard. In Point Blank, Parker is conned out of his money and left for dead. Relentless in his mission, he seeks revenge and tries to get back the money he’s owed. What he hadn’t reckoned on is that the criminal syndicate he’s up against has morphed into a capitalist corporation, a precursor of the vulture capitalism we see today. As he works his way up the chain, it becomes the tale of an individual versus the system.

    In Valdez is Coming, the protagonist is a town constable who tries to ensure justice when a powerful rancher has an innocent man killed. For attempting this, he’s completely humiliated, pushed to the brink until he fights back. Valdez relentlessly kills off the bad guys one by one until he gets to the rancher. The writing is sparse, the plot is classic revenge western and you’re with Valdez all the way. Both books were written awhile back (Point Blank in 1962 and Valdez in 1969, crime and violence at the height of the peace and love movement) but they are great reads and served as good templates.

    Ryan would start with the bank manager who initiated the liquidation and repossession. He’d move onto the bank CEO who gave himself a bonus while receiving a government bailout. And from there to the government and The City where the deals were being made. To correspond with this, I wanted Ryan to start local and become national – leaving his life in Swansea as he treks cross-country to London.

    With my protagonist, setting and plot in place, I wrote at speed, turning out a chapter per day after work. While writing The Final Mile, I drew on my family history and read George Pelecanos. Although I’m not politically active, my parents are, organising demos against cuts, bombings and fracking. Further back, my granddad was a Communist and union leader. An electrician in Ireland during the fifties, he was blacklisted and came over to work in Swindon Railworks. With not enough money to pay for ferry tickets for the whole family, my mum was brought onto the ferry in a suitcase. A true story. Thinking about the lives and political actions of different generations in my family helped provide depth for Ryan’s backstory.

    Pelecanos has steadily become one of my favourite writers. His books are thrilling to read, but it’s his realistic depiction of interlinking lives caught up in crime that is powerful. Like Stark and Leonard, stylistically he’s brilliant, hardly wasting a word and accurately capturing characters. He’s also one of the few writers whose books bring me near to tears. A child suddenly killed in a gangland crossfire. A white man and black woman who can’t quite make their relationship work. The love and deception in family relations.

    My first novel Wrong Way Around was deliberately noir, driven by plot and character, love turning to hate with just a glimpse of the outside world. Pelecanos writes novels that are incredibly gripping but also carry the convictions of what he wants to write about – his Greek heritage, Washington DC, social deprivation and the hope of education. This gave me confidence with The Final Mile to include social drama. I wanted it to be a fast-paced read but also to catch a glimpse of a broken Britain menaced by economic crisis.

    With The Final Mile written so quickly, the killer was the re-write. In discussion with my editor, what seemed to be lacking was initial empathy for Ryan and a bit more realism with the CEOs who were killed off. At the time I was watching Breaking Bad, one series after another, and I thought that’s what I want – a good guy to bad guy moral turnaround. I needed the reader to empathise with Ryan, feel his humiliation and urge him to get revenge. We’ll have to see if I’ve achieved that.

    To insert a more realistic portrayal of the bankers, CEOs and politicians, I went back and researched. I don’t know exactly how a bank CEO lives, but it didn’t take much research to see that some of them have made huge amounts of money through insider trading, illegal manipulation and tax evasion. The transcripts of phone calls during the Libor scams for example are jaw-dropping in how blatant they are. For the government to turn a blind eye to this corruption while bringing in austerity cuts is hard to comprehend. In Greece and Spain, there are demonstrations and riots. Maybe we haven’t got to that stage yet, but as a nation we seem to meekly accept fat-cat cronyism.

    The Final Mile is ultimately a wish-fulfilment thriller. So while I’ve tried to provide a spine of realism, I’ve still mocked the lives of CEOs and ‘bwankers’. If they can take the piss, so can I. For years, a few rich people have ripped us all off. It’s time someone made them pay…

    Author Bio:
    José I. Quiñones is a current graduate of the University of Texas who currently sails through the murky waters of our troubled times. Since day one, he was been an avid dreamer. It was only until recent times that the idea to write down his vivid fantasies came to realization. He sat down in the depths of his man cave and cooked up many ideas. Every night his nightmares would come to reality and trouble him on the white digital canvas that lay on the screen of his laptop. He sat there typing away while the storm brewed up hatred and darkness in the distance. The horizon turned blood red—signaling the dawn of a new era. It was a new beginning—it was the inception of an idea that slowly grew inside his mind, eventually eating at him with every word he typed. He finally immersed himself into his very own story—never to know the difference between reality and fiction.

    gosmallAbout Go Small or Go Home (Toronto Series #2):

    Massage therapist Tess Grayson has long dreamed of turning her hobby of building intricate miniature dioramas into an art career. She’s finally ready to grab for that tiny brass ring, but her potential new massage client shakes her resolve.

    Forrest Williams had finally healed from the car accident that killed his fiancée, but a new injury now threatens his professional hockey career. Even allowing for everything he’s suffered, the depth of the emotional and physical pain Tess senses in Forrest at their first meeting shocks her, and she puts aside her artistic aspirations for two months to help him recover.

    When Forrest shows Tess’s dioramas to his mother, who owns a top Toronto art gallery, she agrees to sell Tess’s work but her rules and restrictions stifle Tess’s creativity.

    Giving up the career of her dreams is unthinkable, but losing the freedom and joy she’d always found in her art is unbearable, and Tess can’t seem to find a way to have both at once.

    HAJ.v10About Honeysuckle and Jasmine:

    The past is never far behind.

    Senia Loato’s life has been needled by disappointment, and the wounds that fester go beyond skin deep. She is certain if she puts miles between her and her tainted past, she will somehow outrun it. When she’s offered the chance to leave her island home of Mintang to become an au pair for three boys in Germany, she takes the opportunity to start running.

    In Germany, she meets Miina. What builds between them is a life-defining friendship, one they will risk everything for.

    And soon, they’ll be asked nothing less.

    When Miina is betrayed and left stranded, Senia stands by her, risking much more than just her stay in Germany. She also stands to lose rich, handsome, turquoise-eyed Roman Dorenwald, the first man she has allowed into her heart.

    But they’re risks worth taking.

    Eventually, Senia makes a sacrifice that catapults her back to her past, where she’s forced to draw back the curtain and discover the shocking truth of her history.

    Can she confront her nightmares, reach deep into her soul, and forgive those who have hurt her? Or is it easier to just keep running?

    Continue the Dev Haskell – Private Investigator Series with Case 2: Mr Swirlee (Formally Entitled Mr Softee)

    Skirt chasing, wise cracking, dysfunctional Private Investigator Dev Haskell leaves his usual stool at the Spot Bar to take on what looks like a cakewalk job, providing protection for Mr. Swirlee. Turns out, however, Mr. Swirlee is anything but… He’s a ruthless ‘entrepreneur’ with a flash temper, a mean streak a mile wide, and a laundry list of people who want to do him in including a sex crazed girlfriend named Lola. Things go from bad to worse until Dev enlists the help of former client, sometime friend and felon, Tony “Dog” Colli.

    Murder, mayhem, romance, double cross and bodies follow in their wake. Just an average week in the St. Paul your mother warned you about, delivered with a healthy serving of the bizarre. A fast paced tale of bottom feeders and criminal class, Mr. Swirlee is another journey through the screwed up world that is Dev Haskell’s life.

    Author Bio:
    Mike Faricy is the Award Winning Author of crime fiction mysteries woven together with a rich strain of humor and even some romance.

    His entertaining tales are populated with the sort of quirky, oddball characters we’re all curious about, but wisely prefer to keep at a distance. They serve not so much as an example as they do a warning to the rest of us. None of his characters will be saving the world from terrorists, international banking conspiracies or government coups. His novels concern individuals who inhabit a world somewhere below the surface of polite society, with a foot firmly planted on either side of the law. The difficulties they find themselves in are usually due to their own bad decisions, but then, bad decisions make for interesting tales. Faricy has been favorably compared to Elmore Leonard, Carl Hiaasen and Michael Connelly. His new series, Corridor Man, is due for release in early summer, 2014.

    Mike Faricy graduated high school from St. Thomas Academy and earned a BA in history from St. Norbert College. He lives in St. Paul, Minnesota and Dublin, Ireland with his extremely patient wife.

    Book 2-DESTINY BAY ROMANCES–FOREVER YOURS SERIES

    The books in this series are loosely connected. Each can stand alone.

    “Need a vacation? Get ready for a real treat and sail away to Destiny Bay, courtesy of one of the very best authors I know. I’ll meet you there!”

    New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Marie Ferrarella

    Forced to pretend to be Matt’s wife, Janet Cardona plans to blow his cover -just as soon as she gets her cat back.

    Haunted by lies that have hurt her in the past, Janet can’t stand slick operators. When Matt coerces her into pretending to be his wife in order to fool a nice old lady, she hates every minute of it–doesn’t she? He’s nothing but a despicable conman–so why does his touch make her quiver with anticipation?

    Includes love scenes.

    Author Bio:
    Here’s my secret to a happy life: by hook or by crook, find some way to make your living doing something you love to do. Worked for me. I’ve always loved to read and I was always being told not to waste my time with my head in a book. So I found a way to make reading–”research, you know”–necessary to my line of work.

    Voila! Happiness!

    And there’s more to it than that. Travel. Gotta go. Gotta experience those settings and find out what really goes on in those exotic locales. Feel that ambiance! Lean back and watch the sunset with that tall, cool drink in your hand. Research. Aaaah!

    Now when you write romances, people always ask about the…ahem…intimate stuff. Do you research that? And my answer is always–only with my adorable, supportive, loving husband. Another foundational requirement for happiness.

    The kids began to arrive just about the same time I began selling to publishers, so I mostly carried a baby in one arm, a book in another. Then it was a baby in my lap, another climbing up my leg, and my free hand on the keyboard of a computer. By the time the fourth boy debuted, I had a rule that no one was allowed to bother me during writing time unless there was blood–a rule seldom honored, but at least I tried. And I was there to watch them grow. For me, that was another pillar of my happiness. At least most of the time.

    All those years–all those books–all those children. The kids are launched, the years are happy memories, and the books–I’m working on them again!

    The first publisher I sold to was Jove’s Second Chance at Love. Silhouette Desire came next, then Dell Candlelight Ecstasy, Loveswept, Harlequin, Zebra, Harper. Lately I’ve been writing for Harlequin Romance as Raye Morgan. So many fun books! I’ve picked out some of the best of them which I’m rewriting into a series called Destiny Bay following a family called the Carringtons. I haven’t been this excited for a long time–finding ways to adjust the characters into this new family, finding ties between them and emotions that just can’t be denied–everything feels so new again.

    I hope you’ll give them a try–and that you’ll be happy you did!

  33. The Wand-Maker’s Debate: Osric’s Wand: Book One -

    oricswandAbout The Wand-Maker’s Debate: Osric’s Wand: Book One:

    There is a time when history begins; a time when those who live feel the need to write their story, for those who come after them to read. When recollection of events of importance cannot be left to one’s offspring alone, but must be shared with all.

    Then there is a time where history transcends into legend; when strongly held beliefs are tried by fire, and traditions are questioned. There are beginnings that truly are beginnings and those that were only thought to be.

    This is that world; this is truly their beginning. What they thought was knowledge, was only a foundation.

    They will delve into a depth they have never known, discover things they never thought imaginable, and
    struggle to uphold the truth rather than be consumed by it. With magic in its infancy, and a world in turmoil, an endless chain of possibilities lie dormant. Rousing them has the potential for paragon or chaos, and only time will tell.

    Just as Leonardo da Vinci has mapped out the human body, and the world has begun to discover the mysteries within, so it is on Archana. With the rudimentary structure in place, they now have what it takes to discover what magic can do; both the mundane and the divine. Lore begins in these days, and mythology will forever echo their names.

    To save herself, her son, and her life, Gracie must confront her husband. And her past.

    Acceptance.

    Can Gracie find the strength to overcome her past? Can she start over and forge a new life-one built on strength and love and forgiveness? Can she, in fact, find grace?

    Preston Johns Cadell is tormented. He attempts to outrun discontent and the void in his heart. His mother is hardly around. His father’s origins and disappearance are shrouded by family secrets. His sole remembrance of his father is flying through the stars nestled in his arms.

    Any comfort Preston derives is from an unseen advisor who teaches him of the invisible world. Now he is coming of age. Memories arrive from long ago when a brown-skinned woman cared for him. But she, too, vanished. Finding the buried remains of his father’s altar, Preston must answer the draw to his destiny, to discover his lineage–even though he has no idea how or where it will lead him.

    bloodsweatbeersAbout Blood, Sweat & Beers!:

    For reasons no one close to him could fathom, Graham March decided to run a marathon. Was it the desire to reduce the forty plus inch beer belly with its associated visceral fat slowly crushing his major organs? Was it to prove to his young son that this middle aged authoritarian figure could mix it with the younger lads still? That his depleting machismo still had a swansong left in it?

    Graham has been muddling through at a laconically plodding pace most of his life. A lazy drift through the education system saw him leave school completely ill-equipped for a moribund mid ’80s job’s market. A succession of demoralising positions (to which ill-suited was an understatement) forced him back into the higher education system before spitting him out, older and wiser, and ready to get his career back on track.

    Twenty odd years later, life has become comfortable and he’s satisfied with his lot.

    Too satisfied.

    Hence this book and everything in it…

  43. The Cut-Out -

    The-Cut-Out-Cover2About The Cut-Out:

    LOGLINE: When the American called me up and said he wanted to talk, I never imagined he would tell me what he did: that someone of global renown, “within days from now”, would be assassinated. Why tell me? A low-key conspiracy journalist? I didn’t know. And quite frankly, I didn’t believe him, either—until the assassination happened…

    SYNOPSIS: Britain in the nineties was obsessed with the X-Files. The high street was awash with X-Files type magazines, and as senior editor of the biggest selling one on the market, I was accustomed to receiving phone calls from anonymous sources promising inside information. So when the American called me up and said he wanted to talk, I took it in my stride. Why wouldn’t I? He was a former Special Forces Green Beret, he said. A CIA runner. He also said that the information he had was best not divulged over the telephone. So we arranged to meet. Nothing unusual in that.

    What was unusual, though, was what the American told me, not at our first meeting, but at a subsequent one some months later. On this occasion he said he’d been made aware of an imminent prime-target assassination, that “one of the most prominent figures on the world stage” was about to be taken out, “within days from now”, though he claimed he was unable to reveal who the target was.

    “Watch the news networks. You’ll know who it is soon enough.” He added: “The media will tell you it was an accident. You’ll know it wasn’t.”

    I came away not knowing if I’d been fed a line or let in on the world’s most terrible secret. And I had no way of finding out, either, other than to wait, and watch the news.

    I didn’t have to wait long. Because a week later the “accident” the American had alluded to was all over the news: the assassination he’d forewarned me about had happened.

    Of course, at this stage I had no idea I was being set up. Only that I’d been told something I wished I’d never been told. And that, because I had, I now faced the most terrifying challenge of my life—to get to the truth before the intelligence agencies got to me…

    ME: I’m a published author and optioned screenwriter with a background in music and journalism (although it should be said my foray into the world of commas and colons was solely the result of my failure in the world of quavers and crotchets!).

    THE EDITOR: For a good chunk of the 1990s and early 2000s I was editor of the popular high street magazines, UFO Reality and Odyssey, an enterprise which led to the publication of my first ‘proper’ book, Cosmic Top Secret: The Unseen Agenda (Hodder & Stoughton ISBN: 0-340-70822-0).

    THE AUTHOR: Some of you, though, might know me best for my two top-selling books on the death of Princess Diana (Princess Diana: The Hidden Evidence and Princess Diana: The Evidence), both of which were published by SPI Books New York and penned with my co-author, John Beveridge.

    THE CUT-OUT: My latest book, The Cut-Out, is an autobiographical spy thriller based on the conspiracy surrounding Diana’s death and the unwitting role I was earmarked to play in that conspiracy. A film based on The Cut-Out is currently in development.

    When Laura Langston, a nurse from Oklahoma City, went to Siena, Italy, to celebrate her 60th birthday, she was not looking for a man. But, there he was – 62-year-old Raffaele Balducci, a talented potter, jazz guitarist, father, and grandfather. His face was pleasantly wrinkled from many years under the Tuscan sun. He had lively brown eyes and dark wavy hair sprinkled with gray. Their attraction was swift and strong. Laura and Raffaele were old enough to know how love works and brave enough to search for their own way forward.

    Fast forward to the the year 2242; A world in which death, disease, war and famine have been conquered, and where everything, including humans, are devices on Neuro, a complex network operating system that is controlled via human thought. Adam Winter has lived for nearly two hundred years in an eHuman body–a man of metal, fiber optics and plastic, on a world where no one dies and no one is born. Paradise on earth, until Adam discovers that the World Government is cutting power to entire cities, and his own city is on the list!

    Trapped in a body that must recharge on the network, Adam is swept up into the underworld of an eHuman anti World Government resistance, led by Dawn, the very first eHuman created. While the Resistance wages war against those in power, Dawn reveals to Adam a shocking secret about their past that not only bonds them together, but is also the Resistance’s ticket to gaining control over Neuro and taking down the World Government once and for all.

    Caught between the past and the future, Adam must rise up, claim his inheritance, and face his destiny– before eHumanity is powered down, forever.

Just this once, Danica wants to indulge in the pleasures of life she’s been so willingly ignoring, but with her Little Sister in turmoil and her biological sister’s promiscuousness weighing heavily on her heart, she isn’t sure it’s the right time to set her desires free.

  54. Lukewarm by Will Montgomery -

    9781620201718About Lukewarm by Will Montgomery:

    “Lukewarm” is an apprehensive adventure that takes place in Nashville, Tennessee through relationships seen via the eyes of freelance writer Luke Jennings, his actor/waiter roommate/best friend Blair (B) and his song-writing sister Harvi. Although Luke’s love life starts out as the least promising, he has the most developed philosophies and rules on friendship, dating and other interactions between genders. B is dating a beautiful model with little to offer in the pleasant personality department and Luke pulls no punches in reminding B of that at every turn. Harvi has been dating a fame-seeking musician for 18 months that has stopped treating her well and Luke doesn’t waste any opportunities to encourage her to move on. Luke wades through awkward waters with an ex-girlfriend, ring shopping with his dream girl (who’s in love with another man) and begins dating a Facebook crush. When B gets a part in a major motion picture and Harvi’s boyfriend shows her who he really is, hearts are changed and eyes are opened to new possibilities. Throughout these experiences, Luke fills the reader (and his friends) in on his astutely accurate discoveries on human behavior and post-modern love.

    COS1-Cover-D-with-awardAbout Chest of Souls Book One by Michelle Erickson:

    A new series sure to please the pickiest fantasy readers.., August 12, 2011 By Readers Favorite “Book Reviews and Award Contest”

    Michelle Erickson has created a new series sure to please the pickiest fantasy readers. In Chest of Souls Book 1, we meet nine year old Talon and the adventure begins . Talon and a young man named Nyk end up running for their lives. Talon meets Brenna, a beautiful six-year-old with power beyond the imagination. Talon and Brenna are the only hope to destroy Sogo. Together they would make a formidable team…if they could live long enough to develop their powers.

    Michelle Erickson does exactly what all authors should do…begin the book with a dynamic, attention grabbing scene. However, she doesn’t stop there; she continues with one heart pounding scene after another. There are plenty monsters to fear and battle in Chest of Souls. Brenna was one of my favorite characters. Although only six years old, she already has self confidence and knows she belongs with Talon. This is the first book in a new series; I can hardly wait to see what our two heroes face in the next book.

    From the back of the book:

    Brenna doesn’t know that her mother is Hi-Sha of Eyes, or that her father was an assassin and he’s supposed to be dead. She doesn’t even know her pet is the Queen of all Shee’s. Brenna is safe because she is oblivious to all but Talon.

    Talon felt safe until he met Brenna.

    Once he is ordered to protect her, he’s had to fight monsters he never knew existed, run away from an assassin, and escape a forest full of carnivores. His father burned down their cottage and left him with people he just met and he isn’t sure who to trust.

    Talon and Brenna are destined to bring down the wickedest city in the world. They’ve been hunted their entire lives by the very evil they must destroy. They don’t know that when they finally meet that evil, they may not win.

    In the meantime the Chest of Souls waits to be powered and neither child can guess the price.

    A note from Michelle:

    In the past, I’ve suffered from post apocalyptic stress syndrome while writing 5 Blanks, recovered an ancient artifact and destroyed the wickedest city in the world using a pair of star-crossed lovers in Chest of Souls, recovered Christmas by unearthing the forgotten love story of the Klauses, and, in Pic Jump, saved a little girl from a terrorist organization armed with nothing but a Barbie head and a woman in a coma. Oh, and helped a woman find true love and solve her own murder in Hallows Gate.

    People ask how I do what I do. Simply put: I LOVE what I do. I thrive on the written word! By the time you read this, I’ll be working with awesome new characters to turn upside down (or inside out), spinning more plots to weave into their lives and planting subplots to harvest when they aren’t looking.

    I’m currently at work on the third prequel to my Epic fantasy, Chest of Souls. Title: Said In Stone. As you read this, I’m being haunted by Masters of Lightning, never-say-die ghosts, and Roses with attitude.

    Writing these books has been a long and miraculous (sometimes mental), journey. I bid you good reads wherever you go and in case I don’t survive my latest adventure, I left my will at the bottom of a volcano under a rock. I think you should have an adventure too!

    childbirthAbout Childbirth without Fear: Using the Image Visualization Technique To Conquer Your Fears:

    Does your upcoming childbirth scare you?

    Have you heard frightening stories about it?

    Have you wondered how you’ll get through your childbirth?

    Would you like a simple, practical way to get past these fears in order to experience a natural, calm birth?

    Studies have shown that fear of childbirth can actually cause complications during labor.

    Fear, stress, anxiety and the resulting tension that have built up over months,

    can cause your contractions to slow down or even stop altogether.

    Stress can also affect your baby.

    Obviously you don´t want anything to happen to your child.

    You want to get past your fears and be able to relax, but how?

    Like you, I was afraid of the upcoming childbirth during my first pregnancy.

    After researching the various reasons behind women’s fears,

    I discovered a method which helped and guided me through a calm, peaceful and natural birth.

    Now I would like to share this method with you.

    This book focuses on helping you deal with, and overcome your fears of childbirth.

    Focusing specifically on a self-help resource called the Image Visualization Technique,

    we will work on replacing any negative images or thoughts of childbirth you may have, with positive ones.

    This is a simple method that anyone can use: anywhere, at any time.

    I have developed a series of exercises to help you work through the 9 most common fears women face during pregnancy.

    During the course of the series we will be looking at how to face and deal with the following fears:

    1. Fear of pain.

    2. Fear of your baby passing through the vagina.

    3. Fear of tenseness due to pressure and stress.

    4. Fear of the unknown.

    5. Fear that the labor will not proceed the way you have planned it.

    6. Fear of episiotomy.

    7. Fear of complications.

    8. Fear of dying.

    9. Fear for the health of the baby.

    And also how to deal with general fears of childbirth that don’t appear on the list.

    Working on whatever fears you may have, will help you prepare for your upcoming childbirth.

    Your negative thoughts will be replaced with images that are strengthening and positive.

    You will be able to look forward to your labor and begin to get happily excited about your coming baby.

    Don´t let the fears get you down, and instead start working on them − today.

  58. The Plantation -

    plantationAbout The Plantation:

    A century has passed since they arrived. Human history has been erased. Children are enslaved on Alien plantations. Some have heard whispers of the existence of a rebel band of humans who roam free in the forests. Most slaves dare not speak of the rebels for fear the mutant guards will grab and make an example of them.

    Seventeen-year-old Freya is pulled away in the night not by the mutants, but by her old friend Finn, to join the Saviors, the mythic band of rebel teens. Her bliss fades when she discovers she is the only Savior without a special ability. She is the odd one out, slowly pushing Finn away, defying Damian, the leader of the Saviors, and antagonizing the fierce and beautiful Daphne. In her despair Freya reaches deep within to discover a dark destiny, a truth so heavy it threatens to destroy her.

    polarbearAbout Life, Love, and a Polar Bear Tattoo :

    When Candice’s in-laws were killed eight months ago buying a huge faux polar bear rug for her Christmas present, she lost more than just two of her favorite people: she lost her husband Ian as well. After only two years of marriage, their guilt and pain have left them living together but apart, unable to really talk for fear of what they’ll say to each other.

    Ian leaves for a month-long contract overseas, and Candice plans to use the time apart to decide whether her marriage can be saved. When her ex walks back into her life as the new client at work, ten years more attractive yet saddened by his own recent loss, she’s left wondering what she really wants from life and love.

    Author Bio:
    Growing up, I was an avid (rabid?) reader. I am a natural speed reader, regularly clocked at about 1200 wpm (I read Harry Potter 5 in just under three hours).

    After careers as a software developer and elementary school computer science teacher, in 2005 I took up the National Novel Writing Month challenge and attempted to write a novel in a month. I succeeded, and the first draft of my first novel “Life, Love, and a Polar Bear Tattoo” was the result. I realized I love writing. I left teaching, and I haven’t looked back since!
