Set in France’s Loire Valley in 1850, <i>Jane Grey</i> tells the story of a frustrated painter and a beleaguered English governess who comes to France to tutor a flirtatious young heiress in the social graces. Jane Grey meets Matthew Brontë when he takes a spill from his horse near where she is walking—the same way Jane Eyre met Mr. Rochester in the book our Jane is reading at the time. Jane finds it uncannier still that Matthew is a cousin to the author of <i>Jane Eyre.</i><br />
<br />
As the weeks pass, Jane and Matthew discover they have many shared interests. They seem perfect for each other apart from one significant snag: Matthew cannot marry without forfeiting his fortune, and Jane can only marry a man with the means to support her and her dependent relations back in England.<br />
<br />
Will the strength of Jane and Matthew’s devotion be enough to overcome this seemingly unsolvable dilemma? Or will Jane be forced to choose her duty to her family over her own greatest desire?<br />
<br />
<i>Jane Grey</i> is an original work with subtle shadings borrowed from Charlotte Brontë’s <i>Jane Eyre</i> and Anne Brontë’s <i>Agnes Grey.</i><br />
<br />

<i>Here’s the blurb:</i></center>
<br />
<br />
Matthew Brontë, a true romantic at heart, believes the only happiness in life is to love and be loved. And yet, he fears he lacks the capacity to love…until he meets Jane Grey. Jane, a humble English governess, seems perfect for Matthew, apart from one significant snag: Jane can only marry a man of means and Matthew must give up his fortune if and when he marries.<br />
<br />
When faced with the choice between love and money, which will each of them choose?<br />

<i>Here’s an excerpt:</i></center>
<br />
“If you don’t mind my asking, was your relationship with the countess an affectionate one?”<br />
<br />
“Hardly.”<br />
<br />
Matthew’s candor pleased Jane on more than one level. “So, you didn’t love her?”<br />
<br />
After an extended silence, he said, looking pained, “To be truthful, Miss Grey, I’ve never loved any woman—and often doubt myself capable of experiencing that most-coveted of emotions.”<br />
<br />
His words crushed her hopes and brought more tears to her eyes. “Surely, you are wrong. For you strike me as a man of great passion.”<br />
<br />
“I used to be.” His countenance grew even more sullen. “But now, my heart is like a tree in winter. Barren, leafless, and encrusted with ice.”<br />
<br />
“Perhaps it will thaw when you meet the right woman,” she offered hopefully.<br />
<br />
He brought his face very close to hers and, for a breathless moment, she thought he meant to kiss her. Instead, he said in a strained voice, “I probably should keep this to myself, but my cold heart has warmed some since making your acquaintance.”<br />
<br />
For several hellish-yet-heavenly moments, they sat together in silence. His mouth was so close to hers she could feel his breath warming her lips. As her heart leapt toward him, her body impulsively followed. Their mouths met ever so sweetly. Then, mortified by her forwardness, she jerked back and turned away.<br />
<br />
“Forgive me. I shouldn’t have been so presumptuous.”<br />
<br />
“There’s nothing to forgive,” he said. “I rather liked the feel of your mouth on mine.”<br />
<br />
She liked the feel of his, too—very much indeed—but carrying on like a common hussy would only lead to her ruin. “Perhaps we should return to the house and see if Cécile’s headache is any better.”<br />
<br />
“Yes,” he said with audible strain. “Perhaps we should at that.”<br />
<br />
He stood and offered her his arm. She took his coat sleeve between her gloved hands and let him lead her farther along the path. After they’d walked several paces, he said, “I don’t believe I’ve yet asked your favorite flower.”<br />
<br />
“No, you haven’t.”<br />
<br />
He waited a few moments before letting out a small laugh. “Will you not tell me what it is?”<br />
<br />
“Very well.” She released a sigh. “I shall tell you. As queer as it may seem, my favorite flower is bleeding heart.”<br />
<br />
He laughed, drew to a stop, and freed his arm from her grasp. Turning toward the bed to their right, he bent over the boxwood border and plucked several stems of the flower she’d named. Then, he offered the bouquet to her with a gallant bow. “Please allow me to offer you this humble token of my admiration.”<br />
<br />
She accepted the flowers with joy in her heart. It was foolish, perhaps, to experience so much elation in response to so simple an offering, but no man had ever given her anything before. He’d also demonstrated tremendous compassion when she told him about her family—and had admitted to liking the brief intimacy they’d shared.<br />
<br />
Might he have some feelings for her? Or was he just being kind? Oh—and what about his secret? She must take care not to let him turn her head, lest she end up brokenhearted when the truth came out.<br />
<br />

<span style="color: black;"><strong>Could you share a bed with a smoking-hot stranger?</strong> </span>
<span style="color: black;"> I'm stuck in my hometown with a depressing job and no future. So when my best friend asks me to drive all the way to NYC so I can be her maid of honor, I jump on the chance to escape. Or I would have, if my car hadn't broken down. I've never been lucky. Then HE shows up—a guy straight out of a fitness magazine, wearing a sharp suit—and he actually fixes my engine. I'd love it if he'd fix a few other things of mine, but I'm in a rush. I don't think I'll see him again. Except here he is, staying at the same hotel as me. Turns out they lost my reservation. My mystery man offers to save the day again; I can sleep in my car and probably get arrested for it, or I can share his bed. He says nothing will happen between us... unless I want it to. I should know better than to hook up with someone I met 24 hours ago. I might regret this in the morning, but for once in my life? I just want to get lucky. Too bad I don't know who this man really is. And when I find out... My whole world is going to change.</span></div>

<h3 class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black; text-decoration: underline;"><strong>EXCERPT</strong></span></h3>
<span style="color: black;">I didn't get the job.</span>
<span style="color: black;">This news was the final nail in my coffin. My legs gave out, nothing stopping me from collapsing to my knees in the pouring rain.</span>
<span style="color: black;">All my safeguards and barriers were stripped away; I couldn’t take it anymore. A panic attack wrung me out like a wet towel. My chest heaved with heavy, ugly sobs.</span>
<span style="color: black;">It wasn't just about the stupid job. It was about all the decisions that had led me to this point. Everything I'd done... everything I hadn't done. I was only twenty-five. How did my life come to a complete stop? What happened? How did it all go so wrong?</span>
<span style="color: black;">Why didn’t I escape with Zenya when I had the chance?</span>
<span style="color: black;">That one terrible, <em>terrible</em> decision to stay haunted me every single damn day. I was crying so hard that I started coughing; the rising stomach acid scorched the back of my throat.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Was I a professional puppy-kicker in a past life? What did I do to deserve this? Why couldn't I just catch a break? Just one? Please?</span>
<span style="color: black;">Rain rolled off me in rivulets. It was coming down too hard to hear the approaching footsteps.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Hey,” a deep, baritone voice said. I was probably about to be robbed and I just couldn’t find it in me to care. It was his shoes I saw first when I opened my eyes; black leather loafers with a shine so polished I could see my reflection in them. I'd never met a mugger with nice shoes. “Are you alright?”</span>
<span style="color: black;">“No,” I said, choking off a laugh before it could return to a sob, then I wiped my face and lied. “But I—I’ll be fine.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">Even now at the end of my rope, I couldn’t shake the stubborn never-let-them-see-you're-hurt mentality. It must've been the hardened New Englander in me.</span>
<span style="color: black;">The flickering streetlight finally snapped on and gave me a good view of the man and his outstretched hand.</span>
<span style="color: black;">He was tall, clean-shaved and had thick black hair that was neatly combed back. He wore a pair of crisp black slacks and a deep, blue silk button down shirt that the rain matted to his broad muscular torso. From his nice clothes, gold watch and lack of a jacket, it was easy to tell that whoever this was, he wasn't planning on coming out in the rain.</span>
<span style="color: black;">His giant arms flexed as he helped me to my feet. My throat went dry as I mentally traced his incredibly well-defined pecs, shoulders, and abs. Catching his eyes suddenly returned the weak feeling to my knees, and it didn't stop until it tore a shiver through my pussy that no cold weather ever could.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Who <em>was</em> this guy?</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Your car's seen better days,” the man calmly remarked.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“What?” I followed his gaze to Carrie. Plumes of ashy smoke billowed out of her hood. My heart somehow found a way to sink even lower. “Oh no!”</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Let me take a look,” the man said, already moving toward my car.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“It's okay. I have Triple A coming, they'll be here... eventually.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">Ignoring me, he pulled a diesel-looking multi-tool out of his pocket, bent over the engine and started tinkering. The new angle highlighted the dark designs that covered his thick back. The tattoos teased me beneath his near see-through silk shirt. I found myself biting my bottom lip and wishing for a better look.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Without a thought to ruining his nice clothes, he dropped a knee into the muddy, cracked asphalt and slid under the car.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Seriously, it's fine! You don't have to—” I started, but it was clear this guy wasn't taking no for an answer. I tried to insist, but he wasn't having it. I'd always had trouble accepting help from people. Something about feeling indebted to someone made me extremely uneasy, almost to the point of physical pain. I had worked so hard for the little I had. It wasn't much, but it was mine.</span>
<span style="color: black;">Frantic and buzzing with too many warring feelings, I looked around and spotted the storage pod. “Even if you fix my car, I'm stuck leaving it here until morning. Some asshole took my spot with this… tuna can excuse for an apartment unit... thing.” I sighed. “I'll get a parking ticket for sure.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">After a loud bang and a few grunts of exertion, which I was ashamed to admit thrilled me way more than it should have, he said, “Try starting it.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">Skeptically, I turned the engine over. Carrie roared right back to life like nothing was ever wrong.</span>
<span style="color: black;">For a moment I was stunned speechless. My car purred smoother than she had in years. Holy crap, I was going to make it in time for the bridal shower luncheon after all! Maybe even a little sleep, if I dared to dream.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“It’s worse than I thought,” he said. “When's the last time you had any work done on it? A check-up, oil change, anything?”</span>
<span style="color: black;">It struck me how dangerous it was for him to be working on what was basically a two-ton lightning rod during a rainstorm. Maybe it was just because of what my life had been like these past few years, but it was hard for me to wrap my mind around the concept of the <em>kindness of strangers.</em></span>
<span style="color: black;">“Maintenance, what's that?” I chuckled sarcastically. I ran a hand over my sopping wet face and hair, realizing I was coming off more sad than funny. I sighed. “It's uh, been awhile, unfortunately.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">A<em> long</em> while.</span>
<span style="color: black;">One glance at his rain-slicked thigh muscles sticking out from under my car made me realize it'd been a long time since a lot of things. When was my last trip to Jiffy Lube? The oil change place. Totally not a synonym for a quickie. <em>Damn it, brain!</em> I flushed with heat and turned away.</span>
<span style="color: black;">It was hard to think about things like an oil change when I could barely keep the lights on in my apartment. I couldn't remember a time when I wasn't just scraping by paycheck to paycheck. Marcos had helped me out with a pay advance a few times, but that was only when things got really bad.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Thank you so much,” I stammered. “I'm sorry, I don't think I caught your name.”</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Vetorian,” he said with another grunt. “But call me Veto.”</span>
<span style="color: black;"><em>What kind of name is Vetorian?</em> The question didn't linger in my mind long when I saw that the rain had basically painted his clothes to his skin. Watching all the corded muscles in his arms and thighs flex as he pulled himself out from under the car was enough to melt away my money concerns, and everything else that wasn't an overwhelming desire to jump him.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Can I give you some money... or something.” I couldn't yank my eyes away from him as I turned off my car. His clothes were ruined, but damn, he still looked amazing in them.</span>
<span style="color: black;">He wiped the grease and mud from his hands on his pants, then glanced up at me. Water dripped of the ends of a few strands of hair that covered his cool, dark eyes. The look he gave me made me tremble down to my toes.</span>
<span style="color: black;">It was hard to believe Veto was real. I wondered what was wrong with him; there had to be something. That's how the world worked. Perfect guys like him didn't exist, especially not in my depressed little town.</span>
<span style="color: black;">“Don't mention it.” His lips curled in a hint of a smirk. “Even assholes can do nice things every once in a while.”</span>

The characters were developed beautifully from start to finish and the author captured their inner turmoil and conflicted emotions beautifully throughout.<b style="color: #8cf9fc; font-size: 16px;"> ~ Goodreads Review</b><br /><br /><b style="color: #8cf9fc; font-size: 16px;">Excerpt</b><br /><br />Prologue<br />-<br />Axel<br /><br />Metal security bars obscure my view, but don’t completely block out the wandering boy and his dog. Though I avert my gaze, I can still see him in my periphery—dirty bare feet, ragged blue jeans, and faded shirt. His hair is dingy from dirt, but it would probably be dark blond when washed. I have yet to see his eyes clearly but know for certain they are dark and sit slightly sunken while bluish circles surround the lost orbs. <br />Is he hungry today? Does his heroin addict of a mother know he feeds the mutt his mission food or is she too far gone to care anymore?<br />Helplessly drawn to the figure, my gaze slowly turns his way to see what’s new today. Like the times before, his is head down and his gait slow as he keeps to the shadows of the buildings. It’s as if he fears the sun’s rays. This nameless boy haunts me for days after I leave the dark confines of Barb’s cramped office, and I know with certainty, today will be no different. I’ll take the image of the homeless preteen with me when our meeting finally ends. I will attempt to approach him again today, offering money and shoes. He will again run from me.<br />Tinkling giggles pull me back to the business at hand.<br />“No, no that’s fine with me,” the girl says too eagerly.<br />The boy leads his shaggy dog down an alley and out of sight.<br />“Axel?”<br />Barb’s masculine voice makes my skin crawl, and I catch a glimpse of my reflection in the window. The image looks mean, cold and I know I’ve only grown harsher the past couple of years. Funny how being sober can actually make a person worse in some ways. A white hot pain licks up the side of my neck, creeping, crawling slowly to the center of my left eye where it sits and waits to split my skull open at just the right moment.<br />“We need you to sign,” Barb says to my back, not at all hiding her impatience.<br />Giving the alley one last glance, I turn to finish what will be my last contract this summer. <br />“Almost done, Candi,” Barb tells the girl I’ve spent the last month training with and I suddenly want to laugh. <br />Almost done? <br />Not by a long shot. <br />Yes, this signing is the end of the road with me, but Candi will undoubtedly be in films, lots of them, and she will never be done. This decision will follow her for the rest of her life.<br />That thought gives me pause and the conversation I tried to tune out of a moment ago becomes much clearer. Taking my seat at the cheap, round table, I ignore the producer, David Magardo, to my left, as well as Barb, the bane of my existence and business partner to my right, focusing straight ahead on Candi. Her bright blue eyes are made even brighter by whatever pill she popped this morning, self-tanning, and platinum blonde hair. Her double-D breasts are on display in her very short, low-cut dress. <br />The girl would be pretty if not for the heavy makeup and perky role she constantly played. I alone in this room know she’s never happy, sometimes drinks way too much, and cries when she calls home. She’s young—too young to know what she’s doing, yet old enough to choose it all. I’ve prepared her for everything and now, I let her go in peace.<br />“Did you stipulate you want a companion of your choice on set with you?”<br />Candi blinks quickly as if the thought escaped her. <br />“There will always be an assistant to see to her needs, Axel,” Magardo mumbles uncomfortably. <br />I give the girl a hard stare.<br />“What he means is his camera guy or his assistant,” I address Candi, ignoring Dave all together. “I told you to request this be added, otherwise you are their property and will be at the mercy of whoever is on set. At least with a companion, they can look out for you if something goes in a direction you are uncomfortable with.”<br />Like you land in a gangbang with total strangers when you were only expecting girl on girl.<br />Candi glances uncomfortably at Barb, then Dave. <br />“Uh, yeah. I need to have someone with me, a friend or someone,” she says uncertainly.<br />I tap the table absently with my forefinger, knowing all Candi wants is the sign-up money with the promise of more. Dave makes a note on the form and lets Barb, then Candi read it.<br />“This is less money than it was just a few minutes ago?” Candi says, surprised. “Why is it less?”<br />Her eyes dart from the pages to Dave, to me, then back to Dave.<br />“The cost involved in shooting changes if you want a companion with you while you film. The more terms you add and longer this takes, the less I’m willing to offer,” Dave threatens.<br />Candi’s eyes water ever so slightly and I know what’s coming. Even though I’m a hypocrite, and even though I was one of those strangers on film for countless girls over the course of my career, I fucking hate what she’s about to do.<br />“I don’t need anyone with me if you will honor the amount from before.” <br /> “Agreed, now get Axel to sign and I can give you the check.”<br />When the pages are slid to me, I sign, releasing Candi to film at will. I inwardly grimace at the fact I’m most likely the only one in the room who would actually honor a contract. An equally sad and ironic thought, but now I can only eye the door, longing to escape these people and this life for a while.<br />The boat is ready. The alcohol is stocked, along with the food and my favorite fishing gear. All that’s missing is me. <br />I hate all of them, I hate all of this. Grinding my teeth, I fight the creeping darkness in my heart.<br />“Axel?” Barbs pulls me from my musings when the paperwork is complete. <br />I try to concentrate on the business at hand. Barbara can sense my foul mood and pats her short red hair nervously before smoothing imaginary lines on her black slacks. She attempts to look attractive and professional, and she succeeds to a cheapened degree, but I see her she-devil horns even if no one else does. And just behind her square reading glasses are the coldest, cruelest green eyes I’ve ever seen. Barb will never be more than a briefcase pimp trying to hold on to her youth to me. What was she now? Had to be close to fifty, maybe more. She was in her mid-thirties when I was a teenager just starting in the business. <br />The crow’s feet around her eyes deepen and my focus sharpens as I realize both she and Dave are staring at me.<br />“What?” I almost growl.<br />“We were just wondering if you would consider adding a couple of girls to your schedule. Maybe you could take one with you on your vacation and train her on the boat?”<br />The word “vacation” left her pencil thin lips like a curse word. Barbara hates me taking time off and fights me tooth and nail every chance she gets. <br />I understand what she said, the conniving bitch that she is.<br />“On the boat?” <br /> A female, on a boat with me. That would mean she would have to share my bed and fuck no, that’s not happening. I don’t want anything to do with the girls other than training them, and that is plenty, thank you very much. The very thought of being confined in a small space with one makes my stomach clench with anxiety.<br />“Uh, no. Again, I have a set schedule, Barb. I’m not changing it. I’m finished working for now.”<br />I glance to Candi and she gives me a sad smile, knowing everyone is talking around her like she’s not in the room. Once her check was given to her, she was no longer of importance. I give her a narrowed expression, trying to convey the hard truth that, as of now, she’s nothing but a performance act. <br />Get used to it, sweetheart, it only get worse from here.<br /><br /><b style="color: #8cf9fc; font-size: 16px;">About The Author</b><br /><br /><a href="http://s1168.photobucket.com/user/francesscawebster/media/Author%20Image_zpsgqhsohih.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img alt=" photo Author Image_zpsgqhsohih.jpg" border="0" src="http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/r492/francesscawebster/Author%20Image_zpsgqhsohih.jpg" width="150" /></a><br /><br />M.C.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Kami thought she'd seen it all as a small time reporter for a New York Paper, but after hearing reports of the dead crawling from graves and attacking humans, she realized the world she once knew would never be the same again. Forced to flee the city, she heads south where her two best friends, Emma and Lou, reside in search of answers.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">As a drunken joke ten years earlier, the three friends made a vow that if the world went to hell they’d survive it together, no matter what. With the pact now a reality, they are forced to face a never ending tidal wave of the dead, tornadoes, earthquakes, and massive storms with hundreds of miles to go. Along with their new dog, Snack, the girls get closer to their destination but no closer to the answers as to why their world is filled with such evil. Will their plan of survival keep them alive or will they drown in the sea of the dead?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
My Review:<br />
<br />
Little Black Dress is magic, a big girl telling of the traveling pants!!! I loved these tales!! Each has it's own feel so a bit of something for everyone. Each is hot in it's own way from sweet to all the humor!<br />
Though only one of the authors was known to me I've found a new favorite in Layla Frost!!!! Winnie Mae was great and I'll be looking in to other reads that Frost has to offer!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
NEARER OBLIVION</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a youth, Lili Banta ignored her grandmother’s cryptic warnings to avoid the Houston children outside their Filipino community, and when many of those children fell ill, Lili ignored the whispers that a vampiric <em>aswang</em> walked among them. But Lili can ignore those rumors no longer. Returned as an adult to work for the Quarantine Station of the Centers for Disease Control, she is plagued by dark, bloody dreams that consume her nights and haunt her days. And a strange yet familiar illness has attacked the city’s children. An illness only she might cure.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On temporary leave from the FBI’s vampire-hunting unit, Agent Scott Chandler accepts his friend and colleague’s request to help investigate a series of interlinked murders and illnesses in Houston. But the task will be harder than expected. The beautiful doctor from the CDC assigned to him is a distraction, both in body and heart, and a monster stalks the night—closer than they can possibly imagine.</div>

<strong>Bodhi’s Synful Mate</strong></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<strong>Iron Wolves Book 6</strong></h2>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
<strong>by Elle Boon</strong></h2>
<strong>KARSYN STYLES…</strong> aka Syn is tired of waiting on the man she knows is her mate to claim her. She’s going to take matters into her own hands, even if that means teaching the stubborn wolf she’s more than just the alpha’s baby sister.
<strong>BODHI…</strong> has fought the feelings he has for the little wolf who’s supposed to be like a sister to him. Only the feelings she’s stirred in his body and heart are far from brotherly. He’s done everything in his power to keep her at a distance, even going against everything he and his wolf want, but nothing can tame either man or beast except the one female meant to be theirs.
Just when he is ready to claim his mate, Bodhi’s world is rocked as his past comes back with a vengeance. He wasn’t born a wolf, but turned when his family was slaughtered. He’d thought he was all alone in the human world, grateful for his wolven family, until one fateful encounter.
Syn sees the man she loves pulling away. Her heart can’t take another rejection, or seeing him turn to another female for the comfort only she should be giving him. She’ll do anything to show him they’re meant to be together.
Neither realize the danger lurking in the shadows as Bodhi’s past is more sinister than either realize. Can the Iron Wolves survive what’s coming next, or will what destroyed Bodhi’s past come back to do the same to their future?

<strong>Excerpt</strong></h2>
<img alt="" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1363" src="http://www.wlkbookpromotions.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/16466617_1864027733876340_1246168348_o-1024x379.jpg" height="237" width="640" />
The constant need to be filled by Bodhi seemed to have eased after their last violent lovemaking session against the wall. Staring at herself in the mirror of her bathroom, Syn touched one of the marks on her hips, shivering at the remembered feel of his possession. Holy fucking shit, Lyric didn’t mention it would be so intense when she mated. The thought of her best friend had her looking for her cell. She glanced at the clock, and quickly walked back into bedroom staring at her recently re-made bed. Each step was a reminder of Bodhi’s possession as she felt a slight twinge between her thighs. With her shifter abilities, if she was to shift to her wolf, and then back to human, all her injuries would be healed, but she was loathe to do so. Gah, she was so screwed.
She swiped across the screen and hit the button for Lyric. The ringtone her friend chose for herself, had her smiling as she waited.
“Hello, beotch. How’s the mating going?” Lyric asked.
Syn shook her head. “Oh, we’ve been fucking like bunnies, and then we fucked some more. Would you like all the down and dirty details?”
The sound of Lyric groaning, and Rowan yelling at her to take the phone off of speaker made Syn blush and look around for Bodhi. “Dang it you hussy, why didn’t you tell me you weren’t alone?”
Lyric’s laughing voice almost had Syn jumping into her truck, and racing over there to knock her best friend in the head.
“Oh Goddess, you should have seen Rowan’s face. Now that, is what we call free entertainment.” Lyric laughed some more, then stopped as she must’ve realized Syn wasn’t laughing with her. “Oh, hun, I’m sorry. You know I didn’t mean to upset you. Hell, I tell you everything, even when Rowan’s right in the room. He sort of knows everything anyways. He’s like Super-SEAL, or would that be WolfieSEAL? Shit, what is he anyway now?”
“Lyric, shut up. You’re gonna give me a headache. Rowan is…Rowan. Who is your mate? He’s an ex-SEAL but he’s also a shifter, so I guess he’s all that and a bag of chips. But, that doesn’t mean I want him privy to my sex life.”
Lyric sniffed, and Syn had the impression her best friend was actually wiping away real tears. “Are you crying? You can’t cry. You’re the one who fucked up.” Syn gentled her voice. Lyric never cried. “Do I need to come over there? Did Super-Wolfeal do something?”
“Wolfeal?” Lyric giggled.
“Yeah, I sort of came up with that. You know how Jenna and Kellen call the Cordell twins Wolpires, well Wolfeals. What do you think?”
“I’m totally gonna tell him his new nickname. Now, stop evading me, and spill. What did you and Bodhi talk about? I don’t need the dirty dirty, since I‘m a happily mated female, I kinda know what you do. Stick part A into slot A, B, or C.”
Syn pulled the phone away from her ear. “So you’re saying you allow Rowan to stick his dick into your vajayjay, your mouth and your…” she was cut off as Lyric screeched.
“Alright, that’s enough girl talk while I’m in residence, damn wolf hearing,” Rowan growled into the phone.
“Give me the phone back you big bully.”
“I’ll talk to you later, Lyric. Don’t let the big bad Wolfeal get the better of you. Offer up part C,” Syn said then hung up as Lyric squealed louder.
“You, Karsyn Styles, are a bad girl.” Bodhi leaned against the doorjamb.
He looked too damn good for her peace of mind, but she kept that to herself. Although the smirk on his face let her know he’d read her mind. His eyes, those green emerald fire ones, looked at her with such tenderness, making her sigh. “Well, you bring out the bad in me.”
Straightening, he strolled into the room. “I hate to leave you so soon, but I need to go talk with my sister, and Kellen. There’s a lot of unfinished business with her husband, and his family. We know Roberto wasn’t in residence, which means he’s still a threat.”
Fear skittered through her. “He knows where we are located.”
“Let him come here,” he growled, pacing away from her to stare out the window. “I saw some of the things he did to her.”
She didn’t need to ask who <em>the her</em> was. When they’d connected, and their mate link clicked into place, she’d seen his memories that he hadn’t blocked. She couldn’t imagine the hell Layla had endured, only hoped that Jenna could help ease some of it. “What’re you going to do?”
Bodhi sighed. “I’m going to hunt his ass down, and kill him. His entire family will die, if not by my hands, then by our pack. Kellen has given me his blessing as well as his assurance he wants to dismember them all slowly. He said Jenna was too lenient when she collapsed the home with the fuckers inside. I tend to agree with him.” He smiled grimly.
Syn remained silent. The need for vengeance was one she understood, but her gut told her it wasn’t going to be quite the easy task her mate thought. No, she didn’t doubt for a minute her mate was a badass, however, the man they were facing wasn’t an honorable man. She’d seen inside Layla’s memories, things she wondered if Bodhi had truly paid attention to, or if he’d been too disturbed to notice the little things.
“Go ahead, say what’s on your mind. I can see you have an opinion, and while I may not agree, I do value your wisdom.”
“It’s not my past to tell, but I suggest when you speak to your sister, you listen, and try not to freak the fuck out. She’s suffered enough without her brother going apeshit on her. Not that I think you’ll hurt her, but Layla is going to need you to stay calm while she tells you her tale.” Syn held up a finger. “If she opens up enough to tell you that is. If not, then when you look into her mind, really look.”
“What aren’t you telling me? What did you see that I missed?” Bodhi came to stand in front of her, his hands holding her by the shoulders.
“I’m telling you to keep your shit cool, and don’t be an ass.” If it was possible, he seemed to grow without shifting. Hell, his entire body appeared to vibrate.
“I hate fucking riddles, and I most certainly don’t like it when my mate won’t just give me the deets I need so I’m not walking into a minefield.” Blunt, that was what Bodhi was.
Syn shook her head. “As your mate, and Layla’s sister-in-law to be, I am giving you both my respect. What I saw through your mind, wasn’t a true vision of mine. It could be a distorted version, so back the fuck up off me.” Mate or not, her wolf came to the surface, ready to protect them.
“The Dominguez family are, and were, vicious from what I saw. Hell, I was too young to really know anything, other than my friend Berto wasn’t able to play on certain days because he was in trouble. What did I miss?” He closed his eyes for a couple minutes, then they opened wide. “From what I saw through my sister’s mind, they not only killed, but they enjoyed it. The killing and torturing. Her husband made her watch. He got off on it. Shit, that’s what you were trying to tell me. I missed it when I connected with Layla.” He stared down at her, his heartbeat throbbed visibly though the vein in his neck.
“Yeah, I’m sure there’s more.” She licked her lips.

Between Justice’s bizarre body changes and being involved in explosive school fights, things are going from bad to worse. Darien Raventhorn arrives on the scene only to add fuel to an already burning question—has Justice been living a lie her whole life? Thrust into an unwanted revenge mission Justice must avenge a family death, embrace her birthright, and slay a demon before all Hell breaks loose.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; line-height: 21px;">I've known about this book for some time and wanted to read it but had not been able until today, now I wish I had put it at the very top of my list!!!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; line-height: 21px;">For the tale: Justice St. Michaels is a normal girl trying to make it through high school and out the other side alive. That is until her bubble is burst in a huge way!! With the help of those that love her she makes the best of what she can. This is a full adventure with love, loss and action. **** I hate spoilers and if I give more I will spoil it!!!! ****</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; line-height: 21px;">Linda Bloodworth has a amazing mind, her world building is so vivid that you are there. The characters are full and just touchable in how real they feel. I could not put this down, I was that invested, I had to know what was going to happen to my new friends! I loved this tale and cannot wait for the next in the series!!</span></span><br />

<strong><em>He’s found her at last…</em></strong>
Cain Killion knows himself to be a damaged man. His only redeeming quality? The extrasensory connection to blood that he uses to catch killers. His latest case takes a macabre turn when he discovers a familiar and haunting symbol linking the crime to his horrific past—and the one woman who might understand what it means.
<strong><em>Only to lose her to a nightmare</em></strong>
Mercy Ledger is brave, resilient, beautiful—and in terrible danger. The moment Cain finds her the line between good and evil blurs and the only thing clear to them is that they belong together. Love is the antidote for blood—but is their bond strong enough to overcome the madness that stalks them?

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>EXCERPT</strong></span></div>
His neck itched and his body twitched. He shifted from one foot to the other, unable to stand still. Christ. He felt like an ADHD kid hopped up on sugar, trying to rein in a surplus of energy. Only it wasn’t energy pumping through him. It was anger. Rage. Fury. That’s what this place did to him. Made him into the sullen boy he’d once been who dreamed of wrath and revenge.
“Mercy.” He whispered her name to the moon and some of the anger evaporated. “Mercy. Mercy. Mercy.” He used the word as a mantra, reveling in the taste of those vowels and consonants inside his mouth. Just saying her name calmed him.
From inside the building, a rusty bolt scraped and banged, loud as a cherry bomb. The door swung inward, the squeal of old hinges shrieking through the night. In the woods, the coyote howled as if claiming its territory against the odd sounding intruder.
Liz backed out the door, pulling a wheelchair. Twenty-five years ago, when he’d first met her here at The Institute she’d looked like a mom—a smile on her face, encouraging words on her lips, and a stout don’t-break-the-rules attitude. Now she looked the grandma version with her gray hair and pleasant plumpness.
“Getting her out here was easier than I expected.” Liz didn’t exactly whisper, but didn’t speak at normal volume. “Ward A doesn’t have cameras since everyone is locked down. Thank the angels the night shift are notorious slackers—we didn’t run into anyone.” Liz turned the wheelchair to face him.
The woman in the chair slumped in the corner of the seat, head hanging as if it were too heavy to lift. Her hair dangled in limp, stringy hanks that reminded him of blond worms.
“This isn’t my Mercy.” Shit. The <em>my</em> had just slipped out. He didn’t look at Liz—didn’t want confirmation that she’d heard the slip.
His Mercy had always been strong. Even at ten years old, throat wrapped in a fat wad of bandages, she’d seemed oddly poised and imperturbable during all the media interviews. She had survived something worse than what he had endured and yet retained her strength. She’d inspired him, intrigued him and tied herself to him without ever knowing.
And she’d always been pretty. All strawberry blond hair and turquoise eyes and features that he’d just wanted to stare at because it made him feel all warm and nice on the inside. He’d never gotten close enough to smell her, but he imagined her scent to be a cross between fresh baked cookies and sunshine—not body odor and vomit like this woman.
“It is her. See what he’s done to her?” Liz’s voice snapped like a whip.
“Who?” Cain asked the question to Liz, but his gaze remained locked on Mercy. She hadn’t moved, hadn’t spoken, didn’t even seem alive.
“Dr. Payne. He’s had a sick fascination with her from the first. Probably because she was the only person on Ward B who didn’t deserve to be there. He’s been pretty harmless until three days ago, when he moved her to Ward A.”
“Why the fuck is she even here if she’s not—?” He’d assumed her past—what his father had done to her and her family—had finally caught up with her. He knelt in front of her wheelchair.
“Don’t you curse at me boy.” Liz’s tone was all angry mom, making him feel like a bad kid. “Her official record says Undifferentiated Schizophrenia and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. But I’ve seen psychotic—she’s not psychotic and never has been.”
He’d never spoken to Mercy before, never been this close to her, never dared to. He’d been a wuss—too damned scared of her reaction to approach her. She had every right to hate him. It was his father that killed her entire family, his father that slit her throat, and his father’s blood that ran in his veins.

Spring Training follows the lives of several major league baseball players as they deal with the fame and reality of life and love. This first book in the series,<span class="apple-converted-space" style="color: #444444; font-family: "georgia" , "bitstream charter" , serif; line-height: 1.5;"> </span><em style="border: none; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, "Bitstream Charter", serif; line-height: 1.5;"><span data-mce-style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif';" style="font-family: "georgia" , serif; line-height: 1.5;">Catching Zia</span></em>, features the second baseman and his desire to meet a woman who isn’t after him for his money or his celebrity status.</span></b></div>
<div data-mce-style="background: white;" style="background: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, "Bitstream Charter", serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">

<div data-mce-style="background: white;" style="background: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, "Bitstream Charter", serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<span data-mce-style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: #333333;" style="color: #333333; font-family: "georgia" , serif; line-height: 1.5;">Zia’s main passion in life is art. And she’d gladly spend days on end sketching the hunky man who stops to admire her work while jogging through the park one sunny afternoon.</span></div>
<div data-mce-style="background: white;" style="background: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, "Bitstream Charter", serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<span data-mce-style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: #333333;" style="color: #333333; font-family: "georgia" , serif; line-height: 1.5;">Brett has been ogling Zia for days. The sketch in her lap provides the perfect opening. When it’s immediately obvious she has no idea he’s a major league baseball player, he relishes the opportunity to take a gorgeous woman out on a normal date.</span></div>
<div data-mce-style="background: white;" style="background: white; color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, "Bitstream Charter", serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; margin-bottom: 24px;">
<span data-mce-style="font-family: 'Georgia','serif'; color: #333333;" style="color: #333333; font-family: "georgia" , serif; line-height: 1.5;">But what Brett doesn’t know is that Zia grew up with a compulsive liar, and his omission is more than she can tolerate. Second chances are rare in this life, and somehow Brett manages to squander that one also. He’s got an uphill battle if he wants to fight for this strong-willed woman.</span></div>

<p><em><strong>TAKEN, the first installment in the hit Breaking the Darkness series by Felicia Starr...</strong></em></p>
<p> </p>
<p><img class="alignleft wp-image-672" style="float: left; margin: 10px;" src="https://testerblog444.files.wordpress.com/2017/01/breaking-the-darkness-001-taken-small.png" alt="breaking-the-darkness-001-taken-small" width="266" height="400" /><strong>You must betray your heart and walk amongst the darkness in order to find the truest light.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Opening her eyes to an imposing prison of complete darkness, Kasha is accused of possessing powers and abilities she had no previous knowledge of until the moment she comes face to face with herself while meditating.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Haunted by memories strung together by lies and deceit, she soon discovers that maybe her beloved grandmother kept a few secrets she hadn’t been aware of. Secrets that could be her salvation… or her undoing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As she struggles to control her new found powers, only time will tell if they will be enough to help her decipher who has imprisoned her or what they want from her. She must search for the answers and the freedom she so desperately desires. Could a handsome guy who vows to help her get away prove to be the man of her dreams… or perhaps her worst nightmare?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Not knowing who to trust, she must find a way to escape before she pays the ultimate price and finds herself taken by the darkness.</p>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Ruxandra learned everything she knows while growing up in a convent. Training to be the perfect nobleman’s wife, she relishes the prospect of a simple life.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
After he performs a mysterious ritual over her, Ruxandra gains uncontrollable supernatural powers. Alone, terrified, and faced with an unknown future, she is left to forge a new life for herself. There’s only one thing she knows: if she doesn’t learn to control her unnatural instincts, she’ll destroy every last shred of her humanity.</div>

<h3>
<span style="color: #ff005c;">About John Patrick Kennedy</span></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<img alt="51lzgr6mnxl-_ux250_" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-422" height="188" src="https://testerblog444.files.wordpress.com/2016/11/51lzgr6mnxl-_ux250_.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 10px;" width="250" />John Patrick Kennedy has been writing stories ever since he could write. At first, his imagination was his escape from a difficult childhood, where he never seemed to "fit in." Other kids taunted him for being different and John began to create worlds in his stories where he could feel safe and secure; stronger and more confident.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When John grew older, he discovered a taste for wanderlust and adventure. As a young man, he travelled the world with little but what he could carry on his back. He has climbed Denali, hiked the Amazon, and even spent a year in Japan, teaching English and feeding deer in the famous Nara Park. His love of Asian history and philosophy has led him to become a master at Jeet Kune Do and a practicing Taoist.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
John now divides his time between two homes, one in New York City, the other in London. He is married with a beautiful little girl who inspires and captivates him. They share their homes with a loyal, loving, German Shepherd. A man of many interests and talents, John has been a world-ranked tennis pro, a ballroom dancer, chef… and of course, he remains, and always will be a writer. All of John's many interests and adventures have inspired his writing. In addition, his imagination is so vivid and dear, it is almost as if he lives part-time within a third home in his mind, an inner world his readers glimpse when they read his novels.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
John writes on a Macbook Pro and finds himself hardly able to go a day without creating something, be it an idea in infancy, or one of the many novels he has going at any time. He is prolific and some friends say, even manic in the pursuit and perfection of his craft. He loves to rip wide open his readers' minds, showing them something—a world, a character—they have never read or experienced before.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He also enjoys feedback, and anyone can feel free to contact him via twitter: twitter.com/JohnPatKennedy, or Facebook: facebook.com/AuthorJohnPatrickKennedy.</div>

Synopsis
F*ck Buddies
P.L. Jenkins
Coming Feb 2017
Outgoing, witty, popular Blair Johnson left everything behind the day her mom decided to move their existing lives from Texas to Clearwater, Florida. She knew senior year would be different starting over in a new town, but what she didn't expect was to meet someone like Hudson Blake. He was different than the boys she knew at her previous school- he was more than the captain of the football team and a wild party boy. There was a side to him so special it was hard to describe. More than that... he was also in a committed relationship with his long-term girlfriend, Lindsey.
Knowing she can't have Hudson, she finds herself infatuated with his best friend, Griffin. Life seems to fall together easily for Blair at her new school. In fact, it is almost too perfect. That is, until one night where everything changes. Lines get crossed, mistakes happen, sparks of desire heat up. Friends become more than friends... benefits are a secret agreement between two people who should never have touched... Love is out of the question.
This forbidden romance is fueled with desire, secrets, heartache, and packed full of emotion.</span><br />

This was a new take on shifter lore that is very well thought out and done well. Her use of a virtual reality world brings it to a very current time.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;">I love a strong female lead and Katy is that, she can hold her own with the best. Add her own issues that she fights to contain even when faced with three bears wanting her. Grizz, Oso, and Kodie are a perfect blend of male and beast and just what Katy needs! </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;">There are some sexy parts to the book as well as erotica-menage but it is all done with taste and class, it all fits the tale and does not feel out of place.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;">I read rather quickly so this was a short read for me ( I tend to go for larger reads and pass on the short ones) but I was drawn in and felt there are many places the tale can go. I cannot wait for more of this series!!! </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; line-height: 21px;">*** I would have loved a bit more of a back story of the virtual meeting with each guy but it's my hope that maybe there will be 3 prequels to come along at some point!! (hint hint!!!)***</span></span><br />

<b><i>In The Highlander, a stunning, gorgeous Victorian romance from Kerrigan Byrne, can the fiercest master of battle conquer a woman’s heart?</i></b><br />They call him the Demon Highlander. The fearsome Lieutenant Colonel Liam MacKenzie is known for his superhuman strength, towering presence, and fiery passion in the heat of battle. As Laird to the MacKenzie clan, the undefeated Marquess has vanquished his foes with all rage and wrath of his barbaric Highland ancestors. But when an English governess arrives to care for his children, the master of war finds himself up against his greatest opponent. . . in the game of love.</div>

Defying all expectations, Miss Philomena is no plain-faced spinster but a ravishing beauty with voluptuous curves and haughty full lips that rattle the Laird to his core. Unintimidated by her master’s raw masculinity and savage ways, the headstrong lass manages to tame not only his wild children but the beast in his soul. With each passing day, Liam grows fonder of Miss Mena—and more suspicious. What secret is she hiding behind those emerald eyes? What darkness brought her to his keep? And how can he conquer this magnificent woman’s heart . . . without surrendering his own?</div>

One single moment, one single exam, one single word… FAILED …will separate them for life, banished to the Island of Shadows for eternity. When Zamali fails her Paranormal Safety Exams (PSE) and is sent to the Island of Shadows, Emerson is a lost and broken wolf. Styx, the local pack leader's sassy daughter, tells him to either shut his muzzle or grow some balls and rescue her. In that instant—in Emerson’s head—the plan is hatched. No one has ever returned from the Island. Stories of shadow walkers, and vicious creatures that drop from trees and decapitate you have stopped attempts of rescue... until now. Will Emerson get to Zamali? Will they both get off the Island alive? Can they do the impossible? Or will the Island engulf them both?<br /><br />~Halfway House Series~<br /><a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/arkadia" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">#Arkadia</a> Bk #1<br /><a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/free" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">#FREE</a><br /><a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fsmarturl.it%2FHWH-Bk1-Arkadia&h=pAQEcO3Qh&enc=AZNxLrJ7rISX-_2J596ai_UfVthYiMwnDRtbvY0iu0i7Vr84RyL8U8-feZmrXdPAAFe7XFDcXb8Ujhl7ndckB5e2-OGgGvTuPmkEHp8ayvbOr-ClFOHEPSsPGmwyKpczMPYzEzYO3wjgxk2Uipe38KDA&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://smarturl.it/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>HWH-Bk1-Arkadia</a><br /><br /><a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/raven" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">#Raven</a> Bk #2<br />Only $1.99<br /><a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fsmarturl.it%2FHWH-Bk2-Raven&h=vAQGX017Y&enc=AZOxng6zF84TVYB9ZoXkVlAmX7D1NY1ZmlFzsYft70XMwyE1Aw4P1AGcgvG2l6R2CtOU5ANWq8l9ss7MNs8icoe4no30GxwcdaJ1VrlQaWKrCeOctlW6U1rjCLj8RTrGBHXfVKZ70sa5BmKYriM_xKwf&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://smarturl.it/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>HWH-Bk2-Raven</a><br /><br /><a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/nevaeh" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">#Nevaeh</a> Bk #3<br />ONLY $1.99<br /><a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fsmarturl.it%2FHWH-Bk3-Nevaeh&h=pAQEcO3Qh&enc=AZOAS0nV0jsRDdyILFsmZT2XW7NSL439FTEZkdlPB29l6MgTj2uWr3avEzwh50CreNxXjRMTpUzM-YDhJDT49U3WMcL4ioF1C35naKPMi4GhXrtLOtfMLqhhLuA7RHC4gCsKhQV_0K1GLZXtWd316eaZ&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://smarturl.it/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>HWH-Bk3-Nevaeh</a><br /><br /><a class="_58cn" data-ft="{"tn":"*N","type":104}" href="https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/ashja" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">#Ashja</a> Bk #4<br />ONLY $1.99<br /><a href="http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fsmarturl.it%2FHWH-Bk4-&h=MAQH1Ti_w&enc=AZMDsWI9jwA9JobjAlBIGPBSolmRjAU5RRw4yIrr0hht0S6fDFnmBg-X0zBbvoGVEY0Q8ZgItrVwRQ_pr_TEXqnTjEqb_p9Bv_-WdHZo_lgsN4MlAcxKHrLAEO1AXFBUP5UbTAXGZQStn0eJuM0TN-aL&s=1" rel="nofollow nofollow" style="color: #365899; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;" target="_blank">http://smarturl.it/<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break" style="display: inline-block;"></span>HWH-Bk4-</a></span></div>

Bio:<br />Australian born and bred, happily married to a wonderful Canadian man, and we have been blessed with 4 amazing children. (Most of the time anyway) I love all things paranormal, my main attraction to it is the impossible being made possible. I am a hopeless romantic, and love a HEA in my books. If it has fangs, fur, wings, or halos I am all over it... (And anything in between) I am strange and weird and kooky, but in saying that I am loyal and loveable and honest. I hope you enjoy my books and look forward to meeting you all.</div>

<b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Excerpt #1 From Chapter 1 when Andrea first learns
that her father and uncle have been shot and are seriously injured.<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Ms. Harding, are you awake?” the
unknown, but commanding voice replied.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Andrea was now fully awake and
beginning to become alarmed. Calls from strangers at three o’clock in the
morning could not be a good thing.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Yes,” she replied, “but I need to
know who is calling.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“This is Sergeant Thompson, New
Jersey State Police, and Officer Harris. We are downstairs at your front door.
It is important that we speak to you in person ma’am. Can you please come down?
We have our identification to show you.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Andrea was now awake, confused, and
alarmed. Clearly, something very bad had happened. She immediately thought of
her father, Nicholas, who lived in Florham Park, New Jersey.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Why can’t you talk over the
phone?” she asked.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Please, ma’am, it’s very important
that we speak in person, and it is urgent.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Andrea jumped out of bed, pulled on
jeans, a baggy sweatshirt, and sneakers. Before she left her second floor
bedroom, she opened her nightstand drawer, and pushed aside her Walther PPK 9
mm to retrieve her Taser. Her dad and Uncle Michael had taught her that a young
girl living alone could not be too careful and needed to be able to protect
herself. She also looked out the front window and in fact saw a state police
cruiser with alternating blue and red flashing lights on. That reassured her a
tad that these guys were real.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nicholas had purchased Andrea a
three-bedroom condominium her freshman year at Princeton, figuring it would be
a good investment for her later. Also being a very independent only child,
Andrea was not the dorm or roommate type. Nicholas had asked her if she planned
to look for a roommate to share the condo and she had just laughed and said,
“Absolutely not!”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Andrea went downstairs to her front
door and looked out the peephole. She saw two officers, one a tall male exuding
ex-Marine, who she pegged as Sergeant Thompson, and the other a young, very
professional looking woman who must have been Officer Harris. Both were
immaculate in their New Jersey state trooper uniforms.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“I need to see identification,” she
shouted through the door.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Both officers immediately held up
their shields and credentials in small black leather folders for her to see
through the peephole.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Andrea removed the safety chain,
unlatched the deadbolt, opened the door, and stepped back. She had both hands
in her back jeans pockets and one on her Taser, just in case.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sergeant Thompson and Officer
Harris removed their big trooper hats and stepped inside sweeping the room with
their eyes, then closing the door behind them. “As I said on the phone, ma’am,
I’m Sergeant Thompson and this is Officer Harris. We are with the New Jersey

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Officer Harris then started to
speak. “I am afraid that we have some bad news for you, Ms. Harding. Your
father, Nicholas Harding, has been hurt very badly. Is there someplace we can
sit?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Harris reached for Andrea’s elbow,
but Andrea reflexively took a step back out of her reach. “What do you mean my
father has been hurt? What the hell is going on here?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“Perhaps it would be better if we
sat down, Ms. Harding,” Officer Harris said.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“I do not want to sit. I want to
know specifically what the hell is going on. Was there a car accident?”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sergeant Thompson replied, “Ms.
Harding, I’m very sorry to have to inform you that late yesterday evening, your
father and his brother, Michael, were both shot. They are still alive, but both
are in critical condition at Morristown Medical Center.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 16.8px;">
</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">“The Morris County prosecutor,
Kerry Marcus, dispatched us here to personally inform you and bring you to the
hospital,” Harris continued.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">A suspenseful and plot-twisting
story, <b><i>The Torch is Passed</i></b> finds Andrea Harding’s world turned upside
down when her father, Nicholas, and her uncle, Michael, are shot in a shocking
and puzzling attack. With only her paternal grandmother left, it falls to
Andrea – a recent college graduate – to not only investigate the mysterious
circumstances surrounding the murder of her father and uncle, but also to
oversee Harding Industries – and navigate an often dangerous fast-track to
adulthood.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"> The
youngest Harding soon finds herself surrounded by a bevy of intriguing new
friends and helpers after she is also violently attacked, forcing her to kill
both would-be assassins. Suspicion
is cast on a short list of family friends and colleagues, and longstanding
relationships are put to the test. Along with her new allies, Andrea urgently
seeks answers to why anyone would want to kill her entire family – growing up
along the way – and seeking her revenge. </span><o:p></o:p></span><br />

Can an All-American mermaid find love and happiness while living and working in the big city? Penelope Anne Tench has searched for years, but neither love nor happiness seems destined to come her way. She’s about to give up on life completely when she decides to have a bit of fun by playing a joke on an unsuspecting human.</div>
<div style="color: #234858; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 13px; margin-top: 13px; padding: 0px;">
Her prank comes back to haunt her when she reports for work at her new job. Has she inadvertently exposed her home of Colony Island to the scrutiny of the human world? Has she betrayed the secret of their existence? Does she flee or does she stand her ground?</div>
<div style="color: #234858; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 13px; margin-top: 13px; padding: 0px;">
Mermaids are strongly warned not to consort with humans, but Penelope will break all the rules by getting into bed with one. Before the story ends, someone will wind up sleeping with the fishes.</div>

<span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"> My Review:</span><br />
<span style="color: magenta; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">This was a new take on mermaids, it has become such a done story choice but I went in with a clear and open mind. I'm glad I did because Howard Parsons did a amazing job putting a new spin on the topic!!!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">The setting for the most part is Colony Island. This beach town is so well done that you are drawn into it, the shops, beach fronts, and Mer who live there come alive. They become like friends, family and neighbors you would want to have. Because it is so well done it leads to the love story and many others to be set here I hope!!!!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">In this Penelope Tench has had enough of everything then everything changes for her in just that one perfect moment! In this case it's meeting Peter. This is not the classic girl meets boy story but it should be!!!</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;">I cannot wait to see what happens in the world next!!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Howard T. Parsons</span><span style="font-size: 13px;"> was born in Petersburg, Virginia during the final days of King George VI’s
reign. He grew up and attended school in nearby Hopewell. The eldest son of Lucile and Howard T.
Parsons, Sr., he attended North Carolina College in Rocky Mount, North Carolina and graduated in
1974 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology. Although his interests lay in Virology and Marine Biology,
the need to earn a living led him to the field of Information Technology. During his stint with the
Michie Company in Charlottesville, Virginia, he developed the TOOL programming language, and in
2008, wrapped up a thirty-year career in legal publishing.
At present, Howard is employed as a software engineer with the Dematic Corporation and lives
in The Parsonage in Charlottesville, Virginia with his wife and the latest two moggies in a long line of
house cats. His interests include pipe collecting, Scottish Highland Games, railroads, and heraldry.</span></div>
