ReplyDeleteThe Last Awakening by Rachel Firasek Released Dec 6th.
ReplyDeleteFor three hundred years, Arabella’s life has been one meaningless death after another. In a cruel twist of fate, Osiris–god of the Underworld–gifts the phoenix her mortality and returns her voodoo magic. If she fails to harness her wayward magic and save a man worthy of a second chance, she’ll forfeit her power and her soul–forever.
Ex-soldier Greyson Meadows desperately wants to be freed from the nightmares and guilt that haunt him after the tragedy that brought him and Ari together. Confronted by the waif of a woman who forces him to face his worst fears, he resists, fighting the need to keep his personal demons hidden instead of setting them free.
When Ari becomes the target of her own magical blunder, it’s not just her life in danger, but now the one of the man she loves.

Legacy Forgotten by Nicole Hill
ReplyDeleteAilis has spent her entire life pretending that she did not have powers because her mother deemed them UN normal and therefore bad. Her grandmother spent the first years of Ailis’ life teaching her, preparing her for a great destiny. When her mother found out she moved them to California and away from her grandmother and teacher. So she decided to spend her life on the side of law enforcement. She is still doing great things. Her only problem now is that she is pretty sure that the serial murders her homicide unit is investigating are not being committed by a human. In walks the most gorgeous man she has ever seen. What’s wrong with that? Ailis not only knows that he is a vampire but she also knows that he is the one who’s been draining child molesters and murderers and leaving an empty carcass for her to find. Still, he does not seem like a bad guy to her. During her investigation she unearths secrets about her families past that takes her half way across the world to right a wrong that occurred hundreds of years ago. Can she trust this vampire to help her solve a mystery that could very well end up with her being life challenged herself?
Dangerously attractive vampire, Kenneth has been around long enough to know that there are no such things as coincidences. That’s why, when he meets the undeniably strong willed homicide detective Ailis, he knows that there is a good explanation as to why she looks identical to his long dead fiancé. He just has to figure out what that would be. He decides to look into it and quickly discovers that she may look like his fiancé but she is independent and don’t take any crap. It doesn’t take long for her to remind him that he has a heart and what it feels like when it is breaking. When his one hundred year nemesis shows up in Miami and tries to force Ailis to join him, he realizes that her powers are worth something to even the worst of his kind. He pledges to protect her from any danger as long as he is still breathing. If those trying to keep her from fulfilling her destiny have anything to do about it, that won’t be long at all.

If I may, I'd like to talk about my short story that was published this Holiday Time last year by Whispers Publishing...UNWRAPPING CHRIS is a contemporary MILITARY romance that happens on a southern American army base. It is a cheap, quick read but, more importantly, was created from my personal visit to an army base while my son was in training to become a drill sergeant. He even helped me with the military terminology, and the book is dedicated to him and others who serve. Try it! Available at Amazon http://amzn.to/rBjJvj

I'll shout a few out, though it will be a few days yet :)
ReplyDeleteLater this week, I will be releasing the second in my indie mystery series, ONCE BURNED (the first book is PAST TENSE). Here is the blurb for ONCE BURNED:
Tarot-medium Sophie Turner is back, and Boston is burning down around her as a string of serial arsons takes hold of the city. Her personal life isn’t faring much better as Sophie makes some disturbing – and potentially dangerous – discoveries about her friends that undermine her trust in those closest to her. Worse, after suffering a psychic dry spell, the newspapers are speculating that she’s a scam artist.
When a graduate student dies in one of the fires, Sophie spots a ghost at the crime scene. She thinks the spirit is weak, but finds out differently as the ghost gets inside her head, luring her into its past life. Sophie can only rely on herself, her ghost, and her gift to find the arsonist even as she becomes the killer’s target.
Next week, on Dec 20, you can pick up my brand new Blaze, Straight to the Heart! And you can pre-order, now, as well :)

Featuring a big-hearted and impulsive heroine, a hero who needs to live down a bad reputation, and loads of adventure and romance, this book is a great gift for a female friend. And it was a heck of a lot of fun to write.
