As a result, mutiny is rising in Hell, and the Devil must fight to remain the king of the underworld. Little does he know, there is much more at stake than his title.<br /><br />After the death of the nun who raised him and his best friend, Jordan Conway cannot think of anything but finding Sophia and keeping her safe. Luckily, he has a team of archangels on his side, and with their help, the two lifelong friends are reunited. But Jordan didn’t expect the reunion to include another of Sister Helen’s charges—the boy he’d loved like a brother but who had pushed him away, Dane. The three orphans never thought their lives would amount to much, but finding their way back to each other is leading them to finding out who they truly are.<br /><br />All paths converge when the fourteenth sphere, a celestial object with a power like no other, appears at the Met. The angels must keep it from falling into the wrong hands, and soon, the lines between good and evil blur as they find themselves fighting alongside Satan to prevent the unleashing of a dark and dangerous force hell-bent on taking them all down. But in this world, nothing is as it seems, and the mysterious sphere is possibly the least of their concerns…<br /><br />Get ready for another adventure as the three friends, and the angels they now consider family, travel the globe in search of a way to save each other—and the world.<br /> <br />

<br /><div style="text-align: left;">Eighteen-year-old
Jordan Conway has always wanted to help people, but helping seven
archangels to achieve their divine duty was never quite what he had in
mind… </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">When
Jordan is entrusted by the head nun of his orphanage to deliver a
mysterious backpack to a New York City address, he comes unexpectedly
face-to-face with Archangel Gabriel. Their acquaintance fast uncovers a
labyrinth of secrets that connect Jordan’s once-normal life to an
ancient heavenly prophecy. Now, he must help Gabriel to reunite the
archangels before evil forces grow too strong.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Soon,
Jordan and Gabriel find themselves on a divine quest across the globe,
while deep in the pits of Hell, Satan plots his return to earth. To gain
control, however, Satan needs the powerful prophetic objects locked
safe inside Jordan’s backpack—and the devil will stop at nothing to get
what he wants.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">With
that notion threatening his only family and the safety of his newfound
friends, Jordan must do whatever it takes to protect the ones he loves
and help the archangels succeed. If that means sacrificing all he
thought he knew to go to war with the devil himself? Bring it on.</div>

What would I have to gain from such an act?”</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">She opened her mouth, but no response found its way out. Rhen had drawn his magic back, had kept his intimations safely out of her head.

I happened to dream vividly, and when my creative brain has had insufficient exercise, those dreams often take a story bent with lots of action and conflict. And since dreams don’t have to be particularly logical, my mind enjoys experimenting with some unique—and often bizarre—combinations.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">This is what happened with <i>Vault</i>. I had a wild dream that intrigued my story brain, enough that I logged it into my idea notebook the next morning:</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">#317: HopeWell—A Dystopian Novella Collection about a prison camp jokingly called HopeWell, for it is the most hopeless place on earth. Each story about finding/acting with hope, even in the midst of hopeless situations—about hoping well, drawing deeply from the well of hope.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">First novella about a girl imprisoned unjustly. No one escapes camp; she’ll never be free. An odd comment, meant sarcastically by a hardened prisoner, sparks hope, and she attempts to escape…</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">The entry continues on from there, outlining the basic plot of the four novellas my brain had conjured up.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">Now obviously many things would change from this original idea. <i>Vault </i>is a fantasy, not dystopian, for example, and it is one continuous story, not a novella collection. But the seeds were there, buried deep within my mind, and within a few short months, they sprouted, ultimately growing into the book known today as <i>The Vault Between Spaces</i>.</span></div><div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">About the Author</span></b></div><div><br /></div><center><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBNwU3LUlSI2de3NK6lr22aGYy19VH_V0E1nPPfX9AR34WiUtpMW8K88-uDXRZ9MMJeq7zIioyv8ZNt6gJxXXV5UOlPOfveD_JlomI97E9ZyxJQlZwGbhNe1YW6SwliQwC9tR7EJO930k/s320/Chawna+Schroeder.JPG" style="text-align: left;" /></center><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;"><b>Chawna Schroeder</b> is a Carol Award finalist who loves stretching both imagination and faith through story.

Autumn leaves blanket our path, and the bleak horizon blocks out the rising sun, but I know it’s there, hiding behind the clouds, waiting to break through.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">“Is the wound bothering you?” Harper flattens the edge of the bandage wrapped around my burnt calf. “The serum will probably wear off soon.”</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">“It’s fine, really.” I’m far from fine. But it’s not the wound that troubles me. With every passing minute, I get closer to the Alliance Council Estate—the one place Mom has spent the last ten years keeping me safe from. And I’m terrified.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">“Keep watch for any creatures. We’re not in the clear yet.” Devon’s weary eyes meet mine in the rearview mirror.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I’ve been watching and listening for hours, sandwiched in the back, caught next to Harper, who keeps shooting Maddox a side-eyed stare, making him shift uncomfortably. Every now and then he glances at me, tightening his lips, holding back words his eyes are fighting to say. But words can’t erase the awkwardness between us.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I look out the window. No violent wind signals beastly Cormorants overhead, and no misted Legions creep along the prickly underbrush, tracking our path. “We’ve set good distance. Nothing’s in sight.”</span></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;">Excerpted from <i>Realms of Light </i>by Sandra Fernandez Rhoads.

She was born in Queens, New York to Cuban-Colombian parents, but grew up in Texas with a love for classical art and literature, specifically Renaissance artists and Late Romantic poets. She attended the University of Texas at Austin and earned a degree in English, and then went on to earn an MA in her “seventeenth century crush,” John Milton. Sandra’s past experience also includes a background in acting, directing, as well as script writing for stage and short film. She has a deep love for the artist community and the arts, and enjoys venturing out and trying new art forms. Currently, she is learning to play the cello she’s named Lysander, and one day hopes to play the theme to Jurassic Park.</div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><center><b><a href="https://www.sandrarhoads.com/" target="_blank">Website</a> | <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/19901648.Sandra_Fernandez_Rhoads" target="_blank">Goodreads</a></b><b> </b><b>| </b><b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/sandra.fernandezrhoads.5" target="_blank">Facebook</a></b><b> | <a href="https://twitter.com/sfrhoadsauthor" target="_blank">Twitter</a></b><b> </b><b>| <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sfrhoads.author/" target="_blank">Instagram</a></b></center><div><br /></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Tour Schedule</span></b><br />(Posts go live on the day they're scheduled.)<br /><br /><div><div>November 28th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/11/were-launching-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Launch</a></b></div><div><div>November 29th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/11/elayne-audrey-becker-for-fantasy-sci-fi.html" target="_blank">Elayne Audrey Becker</a></b> - <i>Forestborn</i></div><div>November 30th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/11/michelle-diener-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Michelle Diener</a></b> - <i>The Turncoat King</i></div><div>December 1st: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/11/jes-drew-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Jes Drew</a></b> - <i>Agents Adam and Eve</i></div><div>December 2nd: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/sharon-hinck-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Sharon Hinck</a></b> - <i>Windward Shore</i></div><div>December 3rd: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/kara-linaburg-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Kara Linaburg</a></b> - <i>The Broken Prince</i></div><div>December 4th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/cathy-mccrumb-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Cathy McCrumb</a></b> - <i>Recorder</i></div><div>December 5th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/sandra-fernandez-rhoads-for-fantasy-sci.html" target="_blank">Sandra Fernandez Rhoads</a></b> - <i>Realms of Light</i></div><div>December 6th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/chawna-schroeder-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Chawna Schroeder</a></b> - <i>The Vault Between Spaces</i></div><div>December 7th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/melissa-wright-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Melissa Wright</a></b> - <i>Beneath Stone and Sacrifice</i></div><div>December 8th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/kristen-young-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Kristen Young</a></b> - <i>Elite</i></div></div><div>December 9th: <b><a href="https://www.prismbooktours.com/2021/12/its-grand-finale-for-fantasy-sci-fi-for.html" target="_blank">Grand Finale</a></b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div></center></div><b><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Tour Giveaway</span></b><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><center><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEihTWn4FnNVzbNZ_uNK1f8tnxW8G025sq2r6HAXH-ynqgUh2UxN13SM0ThY93D2eKxu7UwhB2V7yPv_wAa3vM-YsvUwq22woYLnVWM_tg-6xpux91oxcdVJ_9JlJNnfRb8H3yw9-n5LSGE/w400-h400/Giveaway+-+Fantasy+for+Christmas.png" style="text-align: start;" width="400" /></center><br /><b>One winner will receive a $50 (USD) Amazon eGift Card</b><div><br /><div>Open internationally<br />Ends December 13, 2021</div></div>

Ceres hovered above the horizon, a pale, blue speck, while <i>Thalassa’s </i>lights flashed overhead, only a few degrees below the orange point of New Triton. My drone’s tendril gently twined about my shoulders, and my implant magnified the deep sounds of space. The stars’ dissonance rumbled underneath the team’s voices and my own pounding heart. I smiled at the beauty of it—</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">Jagged pain shattered the stillness.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I staggered slightly, and for half of a second, anger splintered through me. The blame, however, was mine. I had allowed the sky to distract me from my task. Turning away from the heavens, I dimmed the invisible light and muted sounds inaudible to human ears. My drone hovered at my side, a delicate tendril still wound about me.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">After triggering a calming release of neurotransmitters, I checked my connection to the six additional drones. All functioned properly, and their perspectives created a kaleidoscope of light and shadow in my internal feed. Satisfaction with the successful check almost erased the mortification of the reprimand.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">Almost.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I clenched gloved hands and crossed to the metal access point. Sand and rock crunched under my boots when I passed Timmons, whose shadow reached across Pallas’s red-orange crust toward the dimness beyond our lights. My drone released me when I stopped three meters from the heavy, sealed hatch.</span></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;">Excerpted from <i>Recorder </i>by Cathy McCrumb.

I squinted toward the horizon, where stormy sky met turbulent sea. Brantley had planned to be back by midday, but the primary sun was already lowering beyond the churning waves. Not a good sign. Wind howled from the ocean, and the ground bobbed. A gust slapped into me, rippling my tunic and forcing me to lean forward to keep my footing. My toes dug into the tangleroot.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">Shielding my eyes against the subsun, I hoped to spy the silhouette of a herder balanced on the sleek back of his stenella, his determined form rising behind the graceful curve of the creature’s neck. Surely he’d seen the storm moving toward our island. Why hadn’t he raced home? Had he gone out too far? His new mount, Makah, was young and early in her training; she wasn’t as skilled and reliable as Navar had been.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">The island’s rim lurched, forcing me to retreat. I could dance a pattern to change the wind’s course and coax the storm away, but I had no idea where Brantley and Makah were. My interference could send the storm straight into them. A sigh ripped out of me. All I could do was wait.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">My arms cradled the gentle swell of my belly. I’d hoped news of a babe on the way would cause my husband to take fewer risks. I shook my head, letting the wind tug my hair free from my braid. I didn’t truly want him to change. But I did wish he had a more experienced stenella. Brantley still grieved Navar’s loss. So did I.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">The clouds broke open and rain sheeted down, driving me to seek shelter. Our home welcomed me with warmth and light. High windows under the eaves let in the glow of the setting subsun that penetrated even the storm, and torches brightened the wall by the hearth, competing with the flickering fire. A smoky scent curled through the air.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I added a log, grateful for the refuge. A home like this was a luxury I’d never dreamed to experience. Shelves lined one wall, filled with food staples, tools, parchment, and neatly folded fabric. Through a low doorway, I could glimpse the cheerful quilt covering our bed. Spare tunics and cloaks hung from pegs.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I brushed moisture from my shoulders and rested on a bench near the table in this main room. Our bonding cup held a place of honor in the center of the table. Delicate carvings embellished the polished sides with images of land and sea, stenella and forest hound, and a man and woman. A rolled parchment rested against it as if in opposition. I pressed my lips together. As much as I longed for Brantley’s safe return, I dreaded the confrontation that simple missive would bring.</span></div><div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;">Excerpted from Windward Shore by Sharon Hinck.

Passionate about the intersection of faith and art, she spent ten years as the artistic director of a Christian performing arts group. That ministry included three short-term mission trips to Hong Kong. She has been a church youth worker, a choreographer and ballet teacher, a home-school mom, a church organist, and a bookstore clerk. One day she’ll figure out what to be when she grows up, but in the meantime she’s pouring her imagination into writing. When she isn’t wrestling with words, Sharon enjoys serving as an adjunct professor for the Creative Writing MFA program at Concordia University, and also shares with conferences, retreats, and church groups.

Then I drop down and teleport myself to the nearest gunman and wrestle his weapon from his hand. I elbow him in the face and his grip loosens enough for me to take it and shoot at the engine of one of the motorcycles, making it blow up into an inferno that the men scurry to avoid.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Striding forward, I taser one of the fleeing men before tasering another. Then I dive backwards as another man shoots at me before teleporting behind him and putting him into a strangle hold while using his body as cover from his contemporaries.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Three of them try to approach me. Only to freeze mid-step.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I turn to see Aisling darting through the darkness with two figures coming up behind her—making their way to the truck.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Being the gentleman that I am, I teleport to the truck and open the front door for her before grabbing the driver and teleporting us away where I can punch him in privacy.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Then a gun goes off behind me, causing a hot sting in my newly healed shoulder, but this time I’m sure it’s just a graze.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I sigh, and without turning around, I teleport behind the shooter and taser him in the back. See how he likes it.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Mid-tasering, the NEO truck drives past me.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Sighing again, I retract my taser. Then I teleport into the truck—the backseat to be exact.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Aisling is driving, and a very pale man wearing a rumpled suit is sitting shotgun. A man of Indian descent is sitting next to me, trying to ask Aisling, “What just happened?”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“I did,” I answer, tugging off my shirt with my good arm.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">The man next to me screams at this and jumps to the farthest end of the row away from me.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“Please,” I mutter, pressing my hand to my bleeding shoulder. “It’s not that bad.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Aisling glances at the rearview mirror before groaning. “You.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“And to think,” I tell my backseat buddy, “just moments ago, she couldn’t keep her hands off me. Split personality or what?”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">He just whimpers at me like I’m some sort of ghost.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And the other man whirls around before narrowing his eyes on me. “You.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“Wow, it’s really weird how you said it just like she—”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">He cuts me off by lunging at me.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“Man,” I gasp as he wraps his hands around my neck and mine reach for his unused seatbelt. “You should really—” He tightens his grip. “Wear a—”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I click the seatbelt over him and tighten it so he’s trapped in his position. Then I use the middle seat belt to wrap around him too before teleporting to the space my attacker is no longer occupying in the shotgun seat.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">And find a revolver aimed at me.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“Give me one good reason why I shouldn’t use this on you,” Aisling hisses as she turns the truck down a side-street with one hand.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“There is none!” my attacker yells behind us. “Shoot him!”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I eye the revolver. Beautiful thing. Familiar thing. “Because it’s just cruel to kill a man with his own weapon?”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">She switches off the safety. “Not good enough.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Because I can teleport away anyway? “Because I want in on whatever you’re in on. I need out of my old agency.” At least long enough to work through the grieving process out of sight of their watching eyes. And to find out everything I can about Aisling, my wife, and this battle I’ve been a drone in for far too long.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">But most of all, I need it to be long enough to be able to return to the Amerios with enough information to rescue my children.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“We can’t trust him!” my attacker yells. “You of all people know what he’s done.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“I also know we can’t fight him, Peter.” Aisling lowers the gun. “You’re in.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“What!” Peter demands, and his friend—Robbie?—whimpers.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">I push Peter a bit more out of my seat to get a little more comfortable, despite my wound. “So, what agency do you work for anyway?”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">“Oh,” Aisling says, stopping at a red light. “The NEOs.”</div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Excerpted from <i>Agents Adam and Eve</i> by Jes Drew.

Ava is committed to vengeance against the man responsible for the death of her parents. The same man, the Queen's Herald, kept her prisoner for two years, until she escaped with Luc, a warlord bent on vengeance just as fierce as her own. He's forged a powerful army of people from all through the region, called the Rising Wave, to march on the Kassian royal family and smash its corrupt power under the weight of their anger. But for Luc, just as for Ava, his true motive is a lot more personal.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">A hidden magic . . . Luc suspects Ava has magical abilities, suspects he's benefited greatly from them, but he's no stranger to the burdens of power, and he's prepared to let her tell him in her own time—after all, she's his heart's choice and he will give her all the time she needs. Except time is running out for both of them. As they near the Kassian stronghold, forces from within their own camp and without will use every trick they have to stop both Luc and Ava and tear them apart.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">A secret laid bare . . . Luc knows Ava has a secret she's keeping from him—but what he doesn't realize is she has many. And when those secrets are exposed, everyone will have to grapple with the consequences. Ava is prepared to sacrifice her happiness and even her life to save the Rising Wave and Luc—but she would prefer to use her heart and her head to outwit her enemies instead.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">Author's note: The Rising Wave series begins with a prequel novella, The Rising Wave. It isn't necessary to have read The Rising Wave to enjoy The Turncoat King, but it will give readers a better grounding in the world of the story.</span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>(Affiliate link included.)</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55960517-the-turncoat-king" target="_blank">Goodreads</a> | <a href="https://amzn.to/3l6RrUC" target="_blank">Amazon</a></b><b> | <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/4962/9780645142846" target="_blank">Bookshop</a></b><b> | </b><b><a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-turncoat-king-michelle-diener/1140020963?ean=9780645142846" target="_blank">B&N</a></b><b> | <a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/Turncoat-King-Michelle-Diener/9780645142846/?a_aid=tresswishendi-20" target="_blank">Book Depository</a></b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Excerpt</span></b></div></b><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">The guard assigned to lead them to the Skäddar warrior paused to speak to someone in low tones.

With illness gripping the kingdom and war on the horizon, Finley’s is not the only life that hangs in the balance.</span></div><div style="text-align: start;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>(Affiliate link included.)</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/55077635-forestborn" target="_blank">Goodreads</a> | <a href="https://amzn.to/3DQ5qVZ" target="_blank">Amazon</a></b><b> | <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/4962/9781250752161" target="_blank">Bookshop</a></b><b> | </b><b><a href="https://www.bookdepository.com/Forestborn-Elayne-Audrey-Becker/9781250752161/?a_aid=tresswishendi-20" target="_blank">Book Depository</a></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/9781250752161" target="_blank">Barnes & Noble</a></b><b> | </b><b><a href="https://goto.target.com/AoK4Zj" target="_blank">Target</a></b><b> | <a href="http://www.indiebound.org/book/9781250752161" target="_blank">IndieBound</a></b><b> | <a href="http://www.booksamillion.com/product/9781250752161" target="_blank">BAM</a></b><b> | </b><b><a href="http://www.powells.com/partner/33241/biblio/9781250752161" target="_blank">Powells</a></b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><b><div style="text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Excerpt</span></b></div></b><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">Finley’s eyes are glazing over, far too fast, the pupils dilating as if he’s concussed. He shakes his head, holds out a hand, clutches mine when I step close to steady him. “I think—”</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">“Finley!” I cry, catching him when his knees suddenly give way. I’m dismayed at how easy it is to support his weight, considering he’s only one year younger than me. Or two, or three. It’s all a guess, really. “Fin, talk to me,” I say, my heart flinging itself wildly against my ribcage as I watch his eyes lose focus once more. His hand loosens its grip on mine, and both of us sink to the forest floor.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">“Let him go,” I beg, bending over the body gone rigid, the heaving chest, the quivering, waxen skin. Alarm bells are screaming through my head, loud as the clocktower tolling the hour, and with them, the tingling in my core returns. Threads of numbness engulf my limbs. Fur along my back, then feathers all over—my body torn between the urge to hide or to flee, far away from this scene I never saw coming. “Please. Not him, too.”</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">I ignore the gathering sounds of creaking, groaning wood overhead with a vengeance. Tears are welling in my eyes, but I blink them away and shake my head, refusing to let them fall. Refusing because this day of truth has always been tainted by lies, so what’s one more to add to the tally? In the darkening wood, I set each one before me, all of the lies I reach for when the nightmares, the dirty looks, the hidden scars and endless self-loathing begin to drag me under—that my mother loved me before she left me, that my brother and I are not a curse, that I can be good and selfless and worthy of love in spite of the things I’ve done. I assemble them all, then set one more on the shelf: that my best friend, my only true friend aside from Helos, isn’t dying.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="text-align: left;">But the trees around me, leaves and branches straining against their holds, limbs pointing to Finley like a circle of swords—the trees all tell a different story.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div><div style="font-weight: bold; text-align: left;"><b style="text-align: left;">Excerpted from <i>Forestborn </i>by Elayne Audrey Becker.

<p><strong>Golden Crown</strong><br /><strong>Kathleen Mare’e</strong><br />(Arthur Academy, #2)<br />Publication date: November 26th 2021<br />Genres: New Adult, Romance</p><blockquote><p>“If the world is full of monsters, how do we know who wears the crown…”</p>
<strong>Hendrix:</strong><p>
In the dark of the night he bared his soul, delivering a shocking event that <em>should’ve changed</em> everything.</p>
So why in the light of day, does everything appear the same…?<br />
<p>The further I’m immersed in this world he calls the ‘elite’, the more I don’t understand. And it’s not only his world I’m afraid I’m falling for, but the Golden Crown himself as well.</p>
<p>But Pax still has secrets.</p><p>And I <strong>want</strong> him to trust me, like a flame wanting fire.</p><p>Because despite his world being nothing as it seems, I’m not sure I could walk away even if I wanted to.</p><p>Because the truth be told, I don’t <strong>want</strong> to
</p><p>I want him.<br />
<strong>Paxton:<br />
</strong>In the dark of the night I revealed a truth, delivering the brutal reality of what the elite really means.
</p><p>So why in the light of day, does everything appear the same…?</p><p>It’s the same cat and mouse games, and the same political, power tricks where the Golden Crown is all they see. It’s all they want to see.</p><p>Except for her.
</p><p>But there are things I can’t tell her. Things I don’t think she’ll understand yet.</p><p>And I <strong>need</strong> her to trust me, like a fire needing flame.</p><p>Because despite me knowing what this world does to those who fall victim to it, I’m not sure I could walk away from Hendrix, even if I wanted to.</p><p>Because the truth be told, I don’t <strong>want</strong> to
</p><p>I want her.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><strong><span style="font-size: large;">EXCERPT</span>:</strong></p><p>I took my lip beneath my teeth before opening my soul up as much as I was capable of. The words I were about to ask, meant more to me than she would ever know.
</p><p>“I need you to trust me.”
</p><p>I held my breath. Ready to wait for her reply but was surprised at how fast it actually flew from her mouth.
</p><p>“I do.”</p><p>I stilled. “What? You trust me?”</p><p>I didn’t believe it. I was almost angry at Hendrix’s answer.</p><p><em>How could she trust me after everything I’ve put her through?</em>
</p><p>Everything I’ve hidden. It didn’t make any sense.</p><p>What also made no sense was her reaction either because she shook her head before taking a seat on the edge of her bed (which was too far away from me) where she played with the hem of her tee that was resting on her lap.</p><p>“Crazy huh? That I trust you. But… I can’t explain why I do. I’ve just always….”</p><p>“You’ve always what?”
</p><p>She glances up, piercing my heart with her hazel eyes honing in on me with so much raw emotion. “I’ve always…” she starts, before seemingly coming to some realisation within herself. “When I was younger… I always sensed when things were wrong you know? Like that sixth sense that something bad was about to happen, or when danger was nearby. Even when I was too young to really understand my situation, I always knew deep down the kind of dangerous situation I was in. That it wasn’t normal. Well, it wasn’t everyones normal at least. I don’t expect you to understand, but I’m sure from those photos you saw that you have some idea of what I grew up in.” She pauses and my fists ball at the reminder instantly. I don’t have time to let that anger consume me though before she continues. “But I’ve just always trusted my instincts. They’ve never let me down and I guess in a lot of ways I’ve relied on it since I had no actual family to have my back. And…” she pauses again, nervously this time, when she notices me taking slow, measured steps toward her.</p><p>“And….?” I whisper, until I’m standing over her causing her head to tilt back to look up at me.</p><p>“And my gut? For some reason it trusts you Paxton. Despite you making me nervous, despite the things you say and the things you do. I feel <em>safe</em> around you. Protected. Like the only person capable of hurting me when you’re near – is no one else. Only…. you.”
</p><p>My hand finds her cheek, letting her warmth seep into my palm. A palm, that was capable of so much destruction. So much hurt. But everything she just said was true. Because I’d always had this sense to protect her, like somehow our souls recognised the pain and destruction we both endured in our lives and wanted to somehow heal together. In most of our time together though, I wanted to protect her from me too. But this girl….</p><p>I held her as delicately as a guy like I could, when she gave me something of hers that was beyond precious. Her trust. I almost couldn’t believe she was giving it to me but it was something I was determined to keep. No matter the cost.</p>
<p>“You never asked me you know.”</p>
<p>“I never asked you what?”</p>
<p>“If I had something to do with… You never asked me.”</p>
<p>Her small fingers wrap around my wrist that’s still cupping her cheek and her eyes never sway from mine. “I may not know everything about you Pax, but I know you aren’t capable of something like that. I’ve been around monsters my entire life and you aren’t one. You’re<strong> not</strong>.”</p>
<p>I suck in a breath, wanting so much more in this moment when I breathe, “You called me Pax.”</p>
<p>She tilts her head, a knowing smirk crossing her delicate face. “It’s your name isn’t it?”</p>
<p>“I guess I like how it sounds coming from you.”</p>
<p>Then for the first time in a long time, I let myself feel…<br />

<p>Author Bio:</p>
<p>Kathleen grew up in the south-western suburbs of Sydney, where family holidays by the beach and tormenting her two younger brothers, was how she spent her early years. But at the young age of 11, when she submitted a short story to a talented writing competition through the NSW schools program, not only did she win it, but she quickly found a love for it as well.</p>
<p>Throughout her schooling, writing was a hobby, along with sketching and various sports. But fast forward to her adult years when she moved to Europe to follow her husbands field hockey dream, and her love for writing surged to the surface.</p>
<p>Her debut story, Cut, was penned over two years where her hobby seemed to lead to the completion of Pennys' world. The rest of the series came the following year.</p>
<p>Kathleen enjoys writing stories full of self-discovery, emotional journeys and of course, love.</p>
<p>Something else she loves is hearing from her readers, so feel free to follow her blog or drop her an email.</p>

Centerstage is my role, but I prefer being the person behind the scenes helping others. My best friend Jo is the driving force behind our all-girl band. Jo says I’m the heart, and that I give away too much of it without looking after myself, but that’s the way she sees me. The tall and devastatingly handsome but grumpy drummer for the Heavy Metal Enthusiasts seems to see me differently. After watching the hot sex video Jo did with him for the RFC, I’m looking at Tyler Vaughn differently too. Usually Ty and I just fight, but now I’m wondering what it would be like for him to do me like he did Jo in that video.<br /><br /><b>Tyler Vaughn</b><br />Dolly Byron is a sweet, fiery little pixie, and every curvy inch of her is sexy as hell. With those dimples and highland green eyes, she’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen, not that I would ever tell her any of that. She hates me. Since Jo broke up with me, Dolly is all I can think about. But she’s not impressed like the other chicks are that I’m a rockstar. She seems to see through all that to the real me, not a good thing for a guy too difficult for even his parents to love. So the question remains. How do I get her into my bed?<br /><br /><i>In His Eyes</i> is an unputdownable, standalone spin-off from the completed RFC series. It’s 73 chapters long, an enemies to lovers, best friend’s boyfriend, rockstar romance trope packed with emotion, angst, and scorching heat. If you prefer that your hero and heroine not have combustible chemistry or serious obstacles to overcome to be together, do not read this book. </div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlhUsgRdoxO9AOFuY3vy7_pazfA2kTE3nB6n_b7luzkF4OsfBRgoqob_5OyHpi-lRfK5lOhdJ3ra1v1y_h_ldwAItCJYlrhICVYCEjOs1DXKtGw70zBtGPOc6tMFPx1eTI_8d8nXxzruk/s800/mail+%25281%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="368" data-original-width="800" height="147" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlhUsgRdoxO9AOFuY3vy7_pazfA2kTE3nB6n_b7luzkF4OsfBRgoqob_5OyHpi-lRfK5lOhdJ3ra1v1y_h_ldwAItCJYlrhICVYCEjOs1DXKtGw70zBtGPOc6tMFPx1eTI_8d8nXxzruk/s320/mail+%25281%2529.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><br /></div>Arlenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10063435498540695391noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577409893350013880.post-25037520537090741012021-06-04T13:05:00.002-05:002021-06-04T13:05:39.254-05:00Cover Reveal for A Very Naughty MC Christmas.

<p><strong>Outfoxed</strong><br /><strong>R.J. Blain</strong><br />(The Fox Witch, #1)<br />Publication date: November 3rd 2020<br />Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Urban Fantasy</p><blockquote><p>Death is a way of life outside of the safety of Inner Tulsa, and Jade means to keep flipping Mother Nature off until old age claims her. With one eye always on the sky, the last thing she needs is a pack of bounty hunters out for her living head. With no idea of why anyone would want her, her wits might keep her free, assuming she can resist the charming lures of Sandro, one of the men out to claim her as his own.</p>
<p>Left with the choice of being the evening snack of a tornado or taking shelter with the bounty hunter, she does what she does best: she lives on the edge.</p>
<p>Striking a bargain with the handsome bounty hunter buys her another day of life, but it also dumps her into the heart of a sinister plot, one meant to enslave the residents of the storm-tossed city—and the others brave and foolish enough to call the Alley home.</p>

I've had stories in my head since I was a child. All sorts of stories of fantasy, romance, mystery and anything else that captured my interest. I'm a voracious reader, and have spent many hours in my life devouring books, therefore it's only fitting I should write a few myself! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've spent most of my life as a performing musician and band instrument repair technician, but that doesn't mean I'm pigeon-holed into one mold. I've been a university professor, belly dancer, craftsperson, soap maker, singer, rock band artist, jewelry maker, lifeguard, swim coach, and whatever else I feel like exploring. As one of my students said to me once, "Life's too short to ignore the opportunities." I have no intention of ever stopping so welcome to my story world. I hope you enjoy it!<br />

<p><strong>Black Witch Magic</strong><br /><strong>Mila Nicks</strong><br />Publication date: October 30th 2020<br />Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Romance</p><blockquote><p>Selene Blackstone spends her days camped out in library corners with her nose glued to books. In a town like Brimrock, where she’s an outcast, she prefers her book friends to her real-life enemies. They’re a lot less judgmental. The rest of town believes she descends from a family of witches—<i>including</i> her evil witch grandma, Luna. In this case, the truth is stranger than fiction. She is a witch, and she’s cursed for all of eternity. Good thing her to-be-read list is pretty long…</p>
<p>Prickly Paranormal Investigator Aiden O’Hare speaks two languages: sarcasm and more sarcasm. He travels the country—and sometimes even the world—investigating strange phenomena with his best friend, Cory. Their investigations bring them to a cozy New England town called Brimrock, home to fabled evil witch Luna Blackstone. Armed with his dry wit, his bibliophilic love for books, and far too much free time, he’s determined to find out just what happened to Luna…</p>
<p>When Aiden meets Selene, he decides he must get to know her. When Selene learns Aiden is in town investigating her grandma, she knows she must stop him. He’s out to expose the truth. She’s out to keep it a secret. Neither expects to fall under each other’s spell, but sometimes love is supernatural.</p>

<p>Mila Nicks has a thing for romance. Chick lit, chick flicks, you name it, she’s there. She’s all about basking in a quality, well-told love story. It’s why she’s decided to use her passion for writing to pen love stories featuring women of color.</p>
<p>When she’s not engrossed in all things romance, she’s probably out shopping, sampling food off of someone else’s plate, or hanging with her feisty and dangerous pet chihuahua, Zayden.</p>

She is facing losing everything again.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I loved Lucie. She is so well rounded and just so real. I understood Caleb but I really didn't like him. I have been in lucie's position with people not liking me for reasons that I couldn't control. So for me it was hard to see the other side when I just wanted to yell at them all.

<br /><div><b>A dragonfly brings a mother’s love to a grieving daughter.</b></div><div><br /></div><div><b>Meet Savannah</b>, the thirty-something owner of Life Celebrations, a party planning business. Despite losing both parents as a teenager, Savannah is creating a positive life for herself, surrounded by friends and co-workers who are now her family. But she also has a secret—as much as she wants to settle down and have children, she is afraid to, for fear of getting cancer and having to leave them without their mother, as she herself was left behind years ago.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Meet Deirdre Rose</b>, Savannah’s mother. She continues to watch over Savannah, who feels deeply connected to her mother whenever she sees a dragonfly.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Now meet Ben</b>, a thirty-something recording artist who is good-looking, talented, and a household name. Despite his fame, Ben is lonely. He trusts few people because it seems everyone wants something from him instead of getting to know who he really is.</div><div><br /></div><div>Savannah and Ben cross paths when they meet at a yoga retreat in the Massachusetts Berkshires. They are drawn to each other’s creativity and outlook on life. She sees beyond his celebrity and he admires her strength in what she’s had to overcome.</div><div><br /></div><div>What happens when the retreat ends and they go their separate ways? Will they be able to make a long distance relationship work? Can Savannah put aside her fears, and will Ben allow himself to be truly vulnerable?</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Above all . . . what message do Deirdre Rose and Dragonfly have for both of them?</b></div>

Now she is finally in a place of happiness. She has her own business and her friends are like her family. She just needed a little break to breath. Her yoga retreat goes from a relaxing time to epic romance before the weekend is over. Ben is a rock star that wants to take a little break before his concert. He is not ready for love or anything serious. Until he meets Savannah.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's a very sweet story. I can definitely relate to Savannah. She is strong and sweet and just so real. Ben seems like someone who would be happy with simple if he could just write and perform his music. The struggles of keeping a relationship despite the distance is real. They both are scared of giving their heart or losing each other.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I really loved this book. I couldn't put it down. It was such a sweet and beautifully written romance!</div>

He competes because he has something to prove.<br /><br />Daria is a rising star in figure skating, a withdrawn teen from Russia with a tragic past. She competes to provide her family with a better life.<br /><br />Primed to overthrow archrivals who dominate their sports, they’re both headed to the Winter Olympics.

As they gear up for their final shots at medals, they help each other realize the greatest barrier to the top of the podium might be hiding inside their minds.<br /><br />Take a breathtaking ride with Bryce and Daria as they find true understanding, try to overcome the bitterness of their pasts, and share a romance more meaningful than winning gold.<br /><br />Written by the parent of a child with Type 1 diabetes.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Review</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;">4/5</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">So Bryce is a teen who has made it to the Olympics. Well if he finishes his school work, according to his mom. He feels like he needs to prove he deserves to be there and is better than the #1 snowboarder. He sees Daria's picture in an article about teens in the Olympics and falls hard. Daria has already had so many struggles to get to where she is. SHe has to keep her nerves and past in check if she wants to win.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This was a very sweet book. Two teens who have so many struggles with health, trying to make it in the Olympics. They want to be taken seriously. Bryce and Daria hit it off quickly in the first kinda face to face meeting. I like how they are genuine with each other. I loved the characters. I loved that they had great supportive families. Usually these stories have kids with crappy parents. It was fun to imagine the Olympics from inside it and seeing teens experiencing it for the first time.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEeH4d52fCWgKsnbSBaUJjWe-WPNw9moBb-PtVv7oq-iVQ4YmsfZqq7W87nEEf7hFB18whHIDOe-iELDIWWAZpEXDnzvD_PIiFoWoZ4V_4R1xrs5AwM_More0ccWKBsRFs84_CWPU2g8U/s266/BC.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="266" data-original-width="197" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEeH4d52fCWgKsnbSBaUJjWe-WPNw9moBb-PtVv7oq-iVQ4YmsfZqq7W87nEEf7hFB18whHIDOe-iELDIWWAZpEXDnzvD_PIiFoWoZ4V_4R1xrs5AwM_More0ccWKBsRFs84_CWPU2g8U/s0/BC.jpg" /></a></div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">ABOUT THE AUTHOR<br /></span></b><br /><br />BC Powell is a fantasy author from Los Angeles, CA. Described as “a stunning fantasy adventure,” “incredibly original,” and “a wild ride,” his debut science fiction fantasy novel “Krymzyn” was published in October, 2014. “The Infinite Expanse”, the highly anticipated second book in “The Journals of Krymzyn” series, was released in March, 2015.<br /><br />Powell has a diverse background, having held several creative positions in the entertainment industry, including an executive role at ABC-TV, but writing fiction has been his lifelong passion. “The Journals of Krymzyn” represents, in his words, “finally finding the amazing story I want to tell with characters who are able to bring the story to life.”<br /><br />He dual majored in journalism and philosophy at Trinity University in San Antonio, Texas. When he’s not writing, he can often be found hiking the hills of Southern California, daydreaming on the beach, or ocean kayaking.

<p><strong>Between Wild and Ruin </strong><br /><strong>Jennifer G. Edelson </strong><br />Publication date: September 28th 2019<br />Genres: Paranormal, Romance, Young Adult</p><blockquote><p><em>T</em><em>ruth, like love, isn’t always obvious. </em></p>
<p>Seventeen-year-old Ruby Brooks has never had a boyfriend. After moving to small-town La Luna, New Mexico following her mother’s untimely death, boys aren’t even on her radar. Ruby just wants to forget the last horrible year and blend in. But when she discovers an ancient pueblo ruin hidden in the forest behind her house, and meets Ezra, a bitter recluse whose once-perfect face was destroyed in an accident he won’t talk about; Angel, the town’s handsome sheriff’s deputy, and Leo, a stranger who only appears in the forest, Ruby finds herself caught between love, mystery, and other worlds. What happened to Ezra’s face? And why is she so attracted to the one boy in town everyone despises? As Ruby unravels her own powerful connections to both Ezra and the pueblo ruin, she’ll learn surfaces are deceiving. Especially in the heart of New Mexico, where ghosts and legends aren’t always just campfire stories.</p>

<a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/48130002-between-wild-and-ruin" target="_blank">Goodreads</a> / <a href="https://books2read.com/u/4j1Zgl?store=amazon" target="_blank">Amazon</a></p><p style="font-size: 130%; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">Review</p><p style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">3.5/5</p><p style="text-align: center;">Ruby Brooks is 17 years and has just moved to new mexico with her aunt. They decided that ruby could use a new scene after losing her mother. Her first meet does not go well but she is in awe of the beauty. Ezra has had his own share of bad luck. His accident has left him physically and emotionally scared. Him and ruby become an unlikely pair.</p><p style="text-align: center;">Honestly it was a well written story. You felt like you were there without feeling like it was over described. I really didn't like Ezra, but that seems to be the normal male lead grows on you thing. Ruby grew into a brave, amazing person through the story. Definitely an interesting mix of history and supernatural.</p>

<p>Jennifer G. Edelson is a writer, trained artist, former attorney, pizza lover, and hard-core Bollywood fan. She has a BFA in Sculpture and a J.D. in law, and has taught both creative writing and legal research and writing at several fine institutions, including the University of Minnesota. Originally a California native, she currently resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico with her husband, kids, and dog, Hubble after surviving twenty-plus years in the Minnesota tundra (but still considers Los Angeles, the Twin Cities, and Santa Fe all home). Other than writing, Jennifer loves hiking, traveling, Albert Camus, Dr. Seuss, dark chocolate, drinking copious amounts of coffee, exploring mysterious places, and meeting new people--if you're human (or otherwise), odds are she'll probably love you. </p>
