This book will be free from 8/28/2022 through 9/7/2022

TWO PEOPLE SEEKING ESCAPE IN A VIRTUAL WORLD

In eScape, Kam has it all — a body that works, beautiful friends, her own space, and a wealth of stolen credits. In the real world, she’s terminally ill and living in the rundowns, a place where hope goes to die.

In the real world, Lyle seems to have it all. As the son of a famous self-help guru, Julia Grace, strangers envy his perfect life and perfect relationship with his mother. Nobody knows the torture she’s put him through. All Lyle wants is the escape of anonymity in eScape — where he can be himself by hiding behind an avatar.

CONNECTED BY TRAGEDY, DESPERATE FOR LOVE

When Kam and Lyle meet, they each might be the escape the other is looking for.

But Kam can never let Lyle see the REAL her or the hovel she lives in. If he realizes she’s a criminal who’s stolen everything she has, he’ll leave her.

She has no idea Lyle is lying, too – caught in a web of his mother’s manipulations. Each of them loses everything if they tell the truth – but admitting their lies could get them killed.

And not even eScape can protect them from what’s coming.

Ruthless Positivity is a new stand-alone SciFi Thriller from Avery Blake, author of Vicarious Joe, Family Royale, and Analog Heart.

About Featured Book: The Agency: The Norwood Nanny Chronicles by Monica McGurk

Limited time $0.99 promotion from 9/2-9/16/22

The Norwood Nanny Chronicles begin . . .

When American orphan, Bree, arrives at Norwood College—the elite English training ground of nannies to the world’s rich and powerful—she knows that making it through the first year to land a spot in the coveted certificate program is the key to her future. She also knows she can’t go it alone, bonding quickly with her groupmates: an errant (and broke) nobleman, son of one of England’s oldest families; the ambitious and whip-smart daughter of a self-made immigrant; and the ditzy, husband-hunting daughter of a disgraced playboy aristocrat. What none of them realize is that there is more to Norwood than meets the eye: the school itself may unlock the secrets of Bree’s own shadowy past, and the classmates’ very lives will depend on their ability to work together to meet the dangers ahead.

“Fast-paced and full of unexpected twists, Monica McGurk’s The Agency is the perfect mashup of Mary Poppins and James Bond. If you love deftly drawn characters in exotic locations and a compelling plot that will keep you reading past your bedtime, this is the book for you!”

Featured Post: An Ounce of Prevention is Worth More Than You Can Imagine by Allen Daugherty

About Featured Book: An Ounce of Prevention is Worth More Than You Can Imagine by Allen Daugherty

“An Ounce of Prevention Is Worth More Than You Can Imagine” is a wake-up call for taking preventive healthcare and safety seriously. Accidents happen and people develop terminal illnesses and that is just a part of living. The TRUTH is however, many of these can be prevented.

Will everything in this book be new information? Certainly not and in fact, you probably are aware of most of the content. The problem is that we do not practice what we know we need to do to reduce our risks.

That is what we are trying to do, get people to stop and think. In this book, we cover:

· What risk is all about and how to keep from increasing it.
· The effort of prevention vs the possible outcomes
· Creating a safety conscious family; teaching your children about safety.
· Don’t procrastinate and the need for consistency

There are also sections on:

· Safety in the home; fires, falls, electricity
· Infant and child safety
· Safety for the elderly
· AUTOMOBILE Safety

We also cover:

· Preventive healthcare
· Screenings
· Diet and exercise
· Vaccines and immunizations

I really enjoyed writing this book and am looking forward to getting our message out. You can be a part of that as well. Read and digest what prevention is all about and spread the news. Our goal; to save lives and prevent as many accidents and illnesses as possible and the grief and suffering that accompany them.

“The only good accidents or illnesses are the ones you prevent.”

About Featured Book: Born To Die by Sawyer Black

This book will be free from 8/28/2022 through 9/7/2022

Only his memories can kill him.

Casey Marlowe’s life is a nightmare. Born during a tragic event that killed his mother and shaped the public psyche of his hometown, he grows up with the memories of his dead mother mixed inextricably with his own and the ability to see through The Gossamer.

Despite his best efforts to drown his visions with daily doses of alcohol, every horror his disturbed mind dreams up, manifests physically to haunt his waking days. It’s enough to drive him to end his own life. And he’s tried. Both through suicide and recklessly heroic acts. But every time he dies, he wakes up again and has to go on living in his hell on earth.

Desperate to find a way to defeat his demons, he discovers a deeply buried secret, and finally, a way to fight back. But his use of The Gossamer’s manifestations threatens to tear the fabric of reality apart.

If he saves himself, he might destroy the world.

Warning: Born To Die is a new epic horror novel written by Sawyer Black. It chronicles the adventures of Casey Marlowe through various levels of existence and hell and includes strong language and extremely graphic depictions of violent and torturous acts.

Featured Post: A Match Made in Spell by Erin Lynn

About A Match Made in Spell:

What good is a witch with no magic?

I’m Lexi Balefire and I wear a lot of hats, but none of them are tall and pointy. I spend half my time making love matches that last forever, and the other half trying to keep my faerie godmothers from turning each other into toads. Or worse.

I come from a long line of witches, some of them wicked, but none of that will matter if my magic doesn’t awaken before midnight on my next birthday. If I miss that deadline, I’ll never be a true witch.

If my mother and grandmotherhadn’t used their magic to kill each other, one of them might have been able to give me the keys to the mystery and I’d be one step closer to claiming my Fate Weaver heritage.

Now, I guess I’ll have to figure it out on my own.

Featured Post: Souled Out by Blakely Chorpenning

About Souled Out:

My name is Ell Clyne. I’m just a normal girl living in your average small town, trying to make a buck at a dead-end job.

Scratch that. Normal was thrown out the window the night I became the Cypher.

The truth is, I work for vampires. My bank account makes me feel like an influencer without the vagina-scented candles. And that spot in my chest—right where my soul should be—was metaphysically scooped out to make room for the revolving door of souls I read each night before I return to sender. It isn’t the philanthropic job of my dreams, but I told one hell of a lie to get it.

I did it in order to save someone I love more than myself.

When my lie is discovered, the vampires want answers… Even if it kills me.

In a world full of enemies—and one particularly hot yet extremely vexing coworker—I must discover who sold me out and why before I permanently lose my soul, my life, and my family forever.

Because liars pay in blood.

Fans of fanged urban fantasy with a dash of horror, humor, and family drama will savor the twists and emotional scars of Souled Out.

Featured Book: Beyond the Song by Carol Selick

About Featured Book: Beyond the Song by Carol Selick

Beyond the Song is an autobiographical novel based on the author’s coming of age in the ‘sixties and early ‘seventies. A singer-songwriter like her alter-ego Carol Marks, Carol Selick begins each chapter with lyrics she wrote and still performs today. Taken together, the songs introduce the themes of her story and trace the development of her character as she rebels against her strict suburban upbringing to join the counter-culture in hopes of fulfilling her dream of making it in the music business.

The narrator relates her tale in a warm, vulnerable, and irrepressibly zany voice as Carol goes to school in Washington DC, drops out to take a pilgrimage to Berkeley, and eventually winds up living in New York in pursuit of making it in the music business. Torn between romance and career, she continually wavers.

Her quest for freedom lands her in a series of dangerous situations and narrow escapes: she hitchhikes in California at the time of the Manson murders, attends anti-war demonstrations that turn violent, and is nearly arrested when her boyfriend is nabbed in a drug raid.

Along the way, the narrator also meets two important guides who help her sort her priorities, take herself seriously, and develop her considerable talents: Rose, a pioneering black woman songwriter based on hall-of-famer Rose Marie McCoy, Carol’s real-life mentor; and Bruce Pasternak, a fictionalized psychoanalyst who helps her establish the self-assurance to stand on her own two feet at a time when female singer-songwriters had few role models. All inform the heroine’s lyrics and narrative voice as she gradually learns to believe in herself, discipline her talent, and turn her heartbreak into song.

Limited Time Promotional Price.
