The Sword and the Pen by Elysa Hendricks

~For love...any man can be a hero~

It was time. After penning ten popular sword-and-sorcery novels, Brandon Alexander Davis was ready to move on. Ready to stop hiding in his fictional world. Ready to start living a real life. There was just one problem: as he plotted the noble death of Serilda D'Lar, his fictional creation, complete with mile-long sword, skimpy leather outfit and badass attitude, appeared in his study.

Was she nothing more than a crazy fan, or had Brandon finally cracked?

This warrior woman whom he knew so well, so strong yet vulnerable, was both fantasy and reality. She was an invitation to rediscover all he once knew--that life is an incredible, magical journey and, for love, any man can be a hero.

Reviews:

"Once I started "The Sword and the Pen", I could not lay it down! It is so good! "The Sword And The Pen" is a BLAST! It is a very fun, and entertaining fantasy romance. This story is different and fresh."

"In a genre often dominated by flawless, broad-shouldered leads that seem more closely related to statues than men, Brandon is wholly and deliciously human. The characters bring a solidness to the story and by bringing them to life, Ms. Hendricks makes you believe in the impossible."

...who becomes her stalker

Reviews:

"Thought-provoking and poignant, any woman will relate to this story."

"This book offers more than romance to the reader. Real life is given a prose treatment that becomes a full-bodied, truthful story with layers and dimensions.

A Stolen Season by Tamara Gill

~Paranormal Romance~

Archaeologist Sarah Baxter had a clear directive: travel back to nineteenth century London to retrieve the measuring device she left behind. But her bungled attempt at thievery left an English Earl dead and his brother bent on revenge. Sarah must once again go back in time to find the device and return to her own time before her tragic mistake puts a noose around her neck. Unfortunately, the only way to get close to the device is to befriend the very man who wants her dead.

Eric, the new Earl of Earnston, was determined to catch the woman who killed his brother, but she’d disappeared without a trace. Twelve months on and there are still no clues to her whereabouts. As luck would have it, he finds a distraction. A new family have arrived in town and Miss Sarah Baxter is a delightful diversion among the stale debutantes in the ton.

Sarah knows it is madness to seduce the man who would want her dead should he know who she was, but the Earl is an alarmingly persistent gentleman. Can Sarah procure the device without her secret being revealed? And what will the Earl do when he finds out the woman he’s in love with is not the woman he thought he knew?

Melinda Heads West by Robyn Corum

~When Luck Take A Hike~

What happens when a feisty young woman travels west in 1880 to pick up a family deed? If it's small-town Melinda McCorkle, you can count on luck to take a hike. Mindy is travelling with six strange men in a hard-riding stagecoach. When the coach breaks down, they're forced to walk the thirty-five miles remaining to her destination. That would be enough to try anyone's patience, but then the company is set upon by thieves and murderers in the form of the evil Byler brothers, and the stakes are raised.

Fortunately, Mindy makes the close acquaintance of two “gentlemen,” Luke Wilhite and Gary Boone, who try to help her through these dangers.

Luke is tall and fair, while Boone is taller and dark. Mindy feels an immediate attraction to Boone, but he's married! Or is he? Who will finally win Mindy's affection?

Forest Fires by Tara Mills

~Some sparks will catch...some will consume~

Cocky Charley Jensen doesn’t mince words. She knows how to handle herself, doesn’t shy away from hard work, loves tinkering with her pickup, and is far more comfortable with a tool belt hanging off her hips than an apron. However, Charley’s a failure at personal relationships, more experienced throwing punches and insults than her arms around someone. She’s way out of her comfort zone when she strays across a clean cut babe, emphasis on babe, stranded in the woods. Her cool and dismissive assessment of Drake Carver is entirely wrong but correcting someone this opinionated isn't easy.

Don’t let this biologist’s Oxford shirt fool you. Drake’s tough, used to roughing it, and not afraid to be tested. He’s just never encountered a women quite like Charley which, in his opinion, makes her ideal for his purposes. As they dance around their obvious attraction and continue to butt heads time is running out. Drake needs to make his proposition before the birds fly. Unfortunately, Charley kicks him out of her bed and her life right when he was about to clinch the deal. And here he thought outrunning a forest fire was going to be the hardest thing he faced this summer.

Reviews:

"Terrific heart pounding action sequences and sizzling romance."

"From the first paragraph, Tara Mills' Forest Fires was burning hot on my eReader! The chemistry between Drake and Charley was hot, their banter fun and the underlying tension of the book kept me turning pages as quickly as I could."

"Oh, this was good! Tara Mills takes us on a fun adventure through mountains and forests and breathtaking views, but all those pale in comparison to the strength of her characters and her storyline."

Maggie Thorne and her daughter Holly have been waiting for Holly’s father who left seven years ago with the promise to return.

Hopefully this year will be different, with the help of Texas Ranger, Matt Weston.

It didn’t take Matt long to find his quarry and nail the man for the scoundrel he is. But Rafe is the man Maggie wants, no matter how desperately Matt would like to claim the honey-haired beauty for his own.

While Mat strives to turn the deadbeat father into something decent, Maggie faces a new dilemma: explaining to the man working so hard to make her 'almost' husband presentable that she has fallen impossibly in love with him—and only him.

Annabelle by Akalle

~A Sexy Regency Romp~

Annabelle meets her match in this sexy Regency romp...

Temerity and misjudgment sweep our imperfect heroine into romance as she battles other ladies at elegant dinners, plays the Gothic heroine trapped in a crumbling castle in the Highlands, and accidentally steals a pug in London.

From the author:

Annabelle is the product of six years work spread over a decade. She's like an old friend that's become a part of my life to the point that it's hard to believe she's not real. She means a lot to me and is my favorite character that I've written. But she can be surprising at times for a romance heroine. She's wrong about everything even as she has a way of being right. We tend to laugh at her, not with her. But in her heart she's good and loyal. So hopefully, you'll root for her as I did as she schemes and falls in love.

Review:

"I enjoyed Ms Akalle's crisp unfussy writing style, the way she depicts the period, and her sense of humor."

Sands of Passion by Georgia Kakalopoulou

~From the author of Gods and Guardians~

She turned and looked at him with huge eyes. He was already standing across the targets and now he was holding a big shinny bow in his hand. He was dressed in black and on his head there was a turban of the same color blowing in the wind making him look like a creature of another world. His slender figure was swallowing everything around him. Like he was the center of the whole universe. With a dark charm! A dangerous one!

She swallowed with embarrassment. She wasn't certain anymore about the way with which she had been treated the young man. Maybe she was less scared of him compared to the fear she felt for that man across her. He made a movement towards the young man giving him the opportunity to go first. The young man after taking a bow, assumed his position and took his shot. It was a very good one. Slightly outside the center. The prince shook his head in approval. He took a bow again and stepped aside for his master's turn. A tremble took over her and she bit off her lips. He stretched his arrow and ultimate quietness prevailed in the entire camp. Everyone seemed like they were holding their breaths. Just like her. The fires creaked and the soft breeze went by their faces caressing them. Hakim pulled his fingers, the arrow whistled tearing apart the air with force. She closed her eyes. She knew! The arrow's target was her. And it has found it. The camp was seized by shouts of joy and she opened her eyes scared. He was looking her. His gray look upon her was enigmatic. She swallowed to wet her dry throat. She was in trouble! Deep trouble!

Reviews:

"The book is very romantic and quite passionate. I started reading it and I could not stop. Definitely a good buy."

"A light, short read, a tender story to remind you that dreams may come true, for the hopeless romantic people."

Ghost of a Chance by S.J. MacIver

~Free December 17 and 18~

Josh Hankins and Tori Olson were two of the most envied and sought after people in Hollywood. He, an up and coming star of motion pictures; she, his personal and business manager. Life was good--until the automobile accident.

When they awake to find they are no longer alive, they are shocked but also confused by the fact that they are still wandering among the living. That shock and confusion multiplies when they discover they have a 'keeper' of sorts, a ghostly woman named Belle who calls herself a guide. At first Josh and Tori are less than eager to follow their guide's demands, but they quickly learn that ignoring Belle leads to sometimes horrific, if occasionally hilarious, punishment.

Why is God doing this to them? Tori wonders. As a faithful, church-going sort, she has always considered herself a disciple of Jesus Christ and has led what she thinks of as a Christian life. While Josh has never showed outward signs of his faith, something inside him has always lifted him through good times and bad. As they search for the truth and eternal peace, the two are confronted with another surprising fact--they love each other and probably have for a long, long time. Is it too late for that love to blossom and grow, even here in the netherworld? Or did they miss out on their only chance at true happiness?

Reviews:

"Ghost of a Chance is a fantastic read! A feel good book with morals as well as a happy ending. You will laugh ... a lot!"

"...there are poignant moments that made me consider relationships in my own life and how I've dealt with them and how I've judged others. It's a quick read and one that left me smiling. "
