The Moral Line, by Vanessa Bogenholm


The Moral Line by Vanessa Bogenholm
After being rejected and left alone, Alexandria finds herself going down a moral line. Slightly desperate for money, she takes a one-time ‘job’ as a paid for companion by a not so attractive but very nice wealthy man. Is getting paid to be in the company of men really such a bad thing if it feels good?

 She falls into a world of clients that are wealthy, powerful, successful men with fancy cars and country club lifestyles. But she sees the fragility in all of these men, the loneliness and need for acceptance that is the human condition. Alexandria becomes ‘Catherine’, a high-end escort with a beautiful laugh who finds the goodness and attractiveness in all men, falling in love with all of her clients just a little.

By accepting these men and seeing the goodness in them, she pleases these men in many ways. Is it possible by pleasing others maybe Alexandria/Catherine can find her true self and find happiness?"

In Too Deep (Due South Book 1) by Tracey Alvarez



In Too Deep by Tracey Alvarez
***THIS BOOK IS TEMPORARILY MARKED DOWN TO 99-CENTS***

Love small-town romance with an unforgettable cast of characters?

The Due South series will transport you to an unspoilt, wild island off the coast of New Zealand.

Meet Piper and West...

She vowed never to return.
To save her brother from financial ruin, Piper Harland must do the one thing she swore she'd never do—return to the tiny island hometown where Ryan "West" Westlake crushed her heart. Piper is tough, resilient and a little wild—much like the remote and beautiful Stewart Island where she grew up. As a cop who's part of the elite New Zealand Police National Dive Squad, bringing the dead back to their families still doesn't stop the guilt she feels over her father's drowning death. Now nine years later she's obligated to return to a hostile community as the outsider, and forced to work with the man who was once her best friend and first lover.

She's a risk he can't take. 
West is an Island man, through and through. As owner of the local pub, he lives and breathes the local community, and sure as hell can't imagine living anywhere else. But most of all he refuses to ever fall for a woman like his flighty mother. He lost Piper once to give her the chance to fulfil her dreams of becoming a cop. But now she's back for an unexpected six week visit to help her brother—his best mate. Maybe West wants her a little bit, maybe he can't resist the temptation to tease and touch her, but can he fall in love with such a flight risk?

Saying goodbye for the second time might just destroy them both.

Fresh...Seductive...Heart-warming...
And enough steaminess to make your toes curl!
Intended for mature 18+ aged readers.

Sweeter than This by Samara King


Sweeter Than This by Samara King
With her best friend murdered, the man believed to be partly responsible under the nose of her gun and a stranger looming in the shadows out for blood, Officer Elle Taylor is running out of time and people to trust. Will Elle risk crossing the line between attraction and revenge to take help from an unexpected source, before the murderer strikes again and leaves her life in flames?

Durant Kane is no stranger to trouble, especially the kind that comes with a gun trained on his face and an angry woman attached. But Elle's something different, something unexpected and sweeter. He never could have imagined coming to feel so deeply about her, even if his own disastrous path in relationships hadn't left him so wary. But he'll have to take the risk if he doesn't want to lose the woman he's come to realize he can't even think of living without.

Author Interview with Lisa Mondello: Dakota Hearts Series


A Conversation With Lisa Mondello
Author of the DAKOTA HEARTS SERIES

Lisa Mondello
Featured Author
Lisa Mondello


What is the inspiration behind the DAKOTA HEARTS series?
Three years ago my small Massachusetts town was hit by an F3 tornado. Massachusetts isn’t really known for tornados so it was a bit of a shock to see the devastation. I had friends who were in the direct path of the storm. Some lost their homes or had them severely damaged. What struck me so profoundly was how the community came together to help rebuild the town and how other groups from all over the country came to help. That type of humanity was what I wanted to capture when I wrote the Dakota Hearts series. This small South Dakota town called Rudolph was devastated by ice storms and floods. The series follows the McKinnon family, starting with Logan McKinnon. As they repair the town, they also repair their lives and find love along the way.

Where do you get your ideas?
From everywhere. Sometimes I read about something in the newspaper and it starts me thinking about a situation. Sometimes, like with the Dakota Hearts series, it’s personal. Another book that was very personal to me was The More I See, book 3 of my Texas Hearts series. The hero in The More I See is blind and needs to be trained to use a guide dog. A dear friend of mine was blind for about eight years and used a guide dog named Otis. The guide dog in The More I See is modeled after the original Otis because he was such an extraordinary creature. Some stories, like The Marriage Contract, came directly from my own experiences. Like many college kids, I made a marriage pact with a male friend of mine that if we weren’t married by the time we were 30 years old, we’d marry each other. I married at 27 and now we’re both married to other people, but as I approached 30 years old, I’d remembered the pact we’d made and the idea for The Marriage Contract came to me.

Do you ever experience writer’s block and how do you overcome it?
I don’t get blocked that way. If anything, I have way too many ideas in my head and I have to constantly take a step back and organize my time to write them all. I’m a puzzle writer, so when I am working on a scene and it’s not coming out right, I just move to another scene and write that. Usually by the time I’m done I’ve worked out whatever was giving me trouble with the other scene. So I have very little writing down time.

What advice would you give aspiring writers?
Write and then make sure you finish writing it, even if you know it’s awful. You can always go back and fix something. But you need to get a whole story down. Too many writers start a story, get stuck and then abandon that project for another idea that sounds more exciting. They never figure out how to get through a whole manuscript because they’re always starting something new. So you need to finish what you start and then take a look at it and change whatever needs to be changed. The first three chapters of a story might be amazing. But if that’s all you write and revise, you’ll never finish and you’ll never get published.

How do you market your work? Are some avenues more effective than others?
I do a mix of social media, advertising and sending my new releases out to my newsletter readers. But I think the best thing that works is releasing new books. If a reader likes your storytelling, they’ll want to buy your next book. So you need to be more than a one-hit-wonder.

If your book was made into a movie, who would play each role?
Oh, that’s a hard one. First, I have over 20 books in publication right now. Each one would have a different hero and heroine. So it’s hard to say. A reader once told me she thought Matthew McConaughey was who she saw when she was reading Devon Michaels in The Marriage Contract. Another reader thought Charlize Theron would make a great Poppy Ericksen except for the fact that Poppy has auburn hair. I think readers see what’s familiar to them when they’re reading a story.

More About the Author:
New York Times and USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Lisa Mondello, has held many jobs in her life but being a published author is the last job she'll ever have. She's not retiring! She blames the creation of the personal computer for her leap into writing novels. Otherwise, she'd still be penning stories with paper and pen. In 2012 she reissued the first 3 books of her popular Western Romance Series TEXAS HEARTS including Her Heart for the Asking, His Heart for the Trusting and The More I See. The series now has two more books, Gypsy Hearts and Leaving Liberty. Book 6 of Texas Hearts, His Texas Heart, will be available July 2014.

Dead Couple Walking: How can a love so wrong be so right? by Lawrence Ambrose


Dead Couple Walking
***KINDLE COUNTDOWN STARTS JUNE 10, 2014***

From Canada with Love?

Janice Carlson and Steven Sorenson seem perfect for each other – aside from living in different countries and still being in love with their former spouses who desperately want them back.

In the U,S., Steven Sorenson is struggling to recover from his ex-wife's affair. A conservative investment counselor by day, by night Steven combs through online dating sites searching for Ms. Right. His dates have included women who claimed to be slim while being obese, single while being married, and against drug-use but showing up drunk.

In Manitoba, Canada, Janice Carlson recently discovered that her husband was having an affair with a co-worker. Her husband, Jordan, informs her that he doesn't feel a strong connection any longer and wants "the chance to be with someone who makes me happy." He proceeds to force Janice to sell her beloved house and move to an apartment where her neighbors include two men and one woman who perform orgiastic sex and play "ghoul metal" 24/7.

On one of his online dating searches, Steven encounters Jan's profile, "Sweet Syntax," and is instantly intrigued: "I have a master's degree in English!" she warns. He writes her, she writes back – and thus begins a correspondence which soon has Steven convinced that he's found the woman of his dreams.

When Steven and Janice finally meet, their sexual fireworks and emotional connection exceed their highest expectations. To Steven, Janice is funny, bright, and quirky, and the only woman who's ever called him a "stud." For Janice, Steven is the strong, kind, and sane man that her husband, Jordan, never was.

Jordan's love affair, however, has crashed and burned. Now he has decided that Janis is his "one and only true love," and he wants her back. The owner of four degrees and a 157 I.Q., Jordan turns his brilliant, devious mind to destroying Janice and Steven's blossoming love.

Meanwhile, back in the States, Steven's wife, Zelena, has ex-lover issues of her own. Her passionate affair has flamed out, and her former love has turned obsessive stalker. A cry for help brings Steven firmly back into Zel's orbit, and she aims to keep him there.

With Zel and Jordan working overtime to win back their former mates, and Jan's manipulative best friend, Corryn, plotting to ruin both relationships and keep Jan all to herself, an incident at the border jeopardizes Steven's future passage into Canada.

Battling former lovers, immigration authorities, the police, back-stabbing friends - and their own consciences - Janice and Steven form a pact to make their new love triumph, no matter what the cost.

About the Author
Lawrence Ambrose
For me, writing is the best way to explore and express everything that I love about life. I have a lot of interests - philosophy, psychology, science, art, music, and all forms of fiction - so my writing is fairly eclectic. I am as comfortable writing an essay about the dangers of logic as I am creating a fantasy world where the granddaughter of a god wreaks havoc in a small town. My best stories, I think, combine the above interests in a seamless (or perhaps unseemly) whole.

My characters are my babies. I can't seem to stop myself from loving them - even the evil ones. I'm a laissez-faire god: I create them, and then let them play, except for an occasional time-out.

My stories aim to provoke thought, and to challenge your (and my) beliefs, while having a good time. I prefer my fictional intellectual meals to include generous servings of fast-paced adventure. I aim to blow my mind - and yours. Please join me on my "fantastic journey." :)

The Cleaning Agency, by Ayn Bootham


The Cleaning Agency, by Ayn Bootham
Life can be messy sometimes.

Just how messy is something Eva Charles finds out when her husband flees the country with all of their money. Men in tight vests start making unannounced visits and the bank threatens to take her house.

She needs a plan. But for nine years she has raised children, scrubbed kitchens and removed stains from upholstery. What does that qualify her for? Starting up her own cleaning agency of course! But with a twist….Eva’s business is a naked cleaning agency with sexy girls offering all kinds of services...

With the help of a moody handyman, an attractive drug dealer and an eccentric neighbor, Eva tries to keep her life from spiraling out of control.

But she has to get her hands dirty, very dirty, to clean up the mess she is in.

About the Author
Ayn Bootham
Ayn Bootham is an American journalist and writer.

Named after the famous American/Russian author Ayn Rand, Ayn for many years avoided having anything to do with writing. Who needs the pressure, right? But she sucked at everything else - from managing a garden centre to attempting to sell cosmetics. She wasn't great at being a wife either.

So she gave up. She now writes. At night mostly, when her 11-year-old son is asleep. Oh, and they live in a loft conversion in New York. She regularly uses the services of a Russian handyman, on whom the character of Goran, in her book, The Cleaning Agency, is very loosely based. Very, very loosely.

Her Wicked Sin (Entangled Scandalous), by Sarah Ballance


Her Wicked Sin, by Sarah Ballance
On a moonless night, he rides into the winter forest on his beast as black as midnight...

Dashing stranger, Henry Dunham, comes to Salem on a mysterious errand, but is thrown from his horse in the dead of night and rescued by the local Puritan midwife, Lydia Colson.

Haunted by her past, Lydia is running from her own dark secrets, avoiding intrusive questions by pretending her dead husband is simply... away. But when she and Henry are caught in a compromising situation, one punishable by Puritan law, he saves her from scandal by claiming to be her errant spouse... and claiming her bed.

Forced to fake a marriage, Lydia and Henry find their passion overwhelming and their vows a little too real. As their lies become truths, a witch hunt closes in on Lydia, threatening not only their burgeoning love, but her life.

About the Author
Sarah Ballance
Sarah and her husband of what he calls "many long, long years" live on the mid-Atlantic coast with their six young children, all of whom are perfectly adorable when they're asleep. She never dreamed of becoming an author, but as a homeschooling mom, she often jokes she writes fiction because if she wants anyone to listen to her, she has to make them up. (As it turns out, her characters aren't much better than the kids). When not buried under piles of laundry, she may be found adrift in the Atlantic (preferably on a boat) or seeking that ever-elusive perfect writing spot where not even the kids can find her.

She loves creating unforgettable stories while putting her characters through an unkind amount of torture--a hobby that has nothing to do with living with six children. (Really.) Though she adores nail-biting mystery and edge-of-your-seat thrillers, Sarah writes in many genres including contemporary and ghostly paranormal romance. Her ever-growing roster of releases may be found on her website at sarahballance.com.

Her Dakota Man (Book 1 - Dakota Hearts), by Lisa Mondello


Her Dakota Man, by Lisa Mondello
From USA Today Best Selling Author Lisa Mondello - A new contemporary western romance series DAKOTA HEARTS

She needed to risk the truth to get a second chance...

Poppy Erickson had spent the year wondering how all their lives might have been different after hearing the deathbed confession of her childhood friend. She'd left South Dakota years ago because she couldn't bear to watch the man she loved loving another woman. But now she knows the truth. She'll keep the promise she made to a friend, but will Logan understand when he learns the truth? More important, can they again recapture the passion that had been between them all those years ago?

He needed to face the past to get the love of a woman he thought he'd lost..

Everyone knows that the Dakotas didn't get the name Badlands for nothing. Harsh weather and rough living are a way of life. But single dad, Logan McKinnon, had seen more than his share of bad times after the death of his wife a year ago. The last thing he needs is Poppy Erickson, an old flame and his late wife's best friend, showing up unannounced to help after devastating floods nearly washed away their hometown. With no place to stay in town, he has no choice but to offer her a bed at his house. But can he live under the same roof with a woman he'd once loved passionately without feeling he's betraying his late wife?

Excerpt:

One look on Logan McKinnon's face told Poppy that his foul mood had very little to do with the devastating destruction all around the Badlands of South Dakota...and everything to do with her showing up in town after nearly ten years.

She didn't have to be standing next to him to feel his anger simmering just below the surface of his composure. Sitting in her rental sedan was close enough. What the hell was she thinking coming back home? Why had she made that ridiculous promise to Kelly?

She parked the car next to his truck and took a deep breath, mumbling under her breath as she pulled the door handle, "This may just turn out to be the stupidest thing you have ever done, girl."

Truth was, even as pissed off as Logan looked, he was still an amazing sight to see. Part of her had hoped that she was wrong. That she'd gotten over him a long time ago. That she'd take one look at him, make sure he and Keith were okay, and be able to get back in her car and drive right to the airport in Rapids City.

He turned to her, standing tall and proud. His thick dark hair blew in the March wind, fluttering around his face and making him all the more strikingly handsome.

Yep. Stupid.

He was taller than she'd remembered, and he'd long since lost that too-lean teenage body that had driven her crazy in her youth. He worked hard on his ranch and it showed in how much his arms and chest had filled with muscles.

Despite the cold, he'd taken off his jacket while he worked in the yard and Poppy had a clear view of just how much his male body had filled out in places she'd dreamed of touching.

Lord, help her. She was in trouble. And she hadn't even stepped out of the car yet. She pushed the door open and stepped outside to get it over with. It was either going to be the shortest visit on record...or a life changing experience she'd been dreaming of ever since she was a teenager.

"Hi, Logan."

Logan starred at he for a long, agonizing moment. She read the emotional tug of war playing on his face as the sudden chill from the South Dakota winds bit into her exposed skin like a whipping.

Then his expression turned hard. "What the hell are you doing here?"About the Author

To Protect & Serve

The Courage Series, Book 1

*~* Excerpt *~*

It was like a whole sleeping system snapped awake around Lisa. People she had no idea where they had come from were suddenly running in every direction at once.

"Sorry, Ms. Matheson, we're going to have to do this some other time," Captain Hayes said, but she was too stunned to do more than nod.

Men, gear, boots, equipment, and then just as the truck roared to life, the last fireman in full gear flashed by her and jumped into the back door. All the air vanished from the earth itself when he slammed that door closed. The blaring continued above her, but she hardly heard it as her eyes blurred against the sight. Slowly the truck pulled out into the street, leaving her standing alone in the empty station house.

"Oh, God, please, let him be all right."
