The Silent Deception: Uncover the Lies, Expose the Truth, Survive the Consequences by Whayne Lee

The Silent Deception: Uncover the Lies, Expose the Truth, Survive the Consequences by Whayne Lee

A hidden map. A deadly conspiracy.
Lucas Thorne swore he was done chasing ghosts.
Professor Isobel Hart thought she’d left danger behind.

When an ancient map resurfaces, hinting at secrets buried deep in history, Lucas and Isobel are pulled back into the shadows.
He’s an outsider who trusts no one.
She’s a professor who only believes in facts.
But this mystery won’t solve itself, and neither can walk away.
Enemies lurk in the dark, watching their every move.
A powerful faction will stop at nothing to keep the truth hidden.
The deeper they go, the more the lines between past and present blur—
And the harder it is to ignore the tension between them.

The truth could change everything.
If they live long enough to uncover it.

Bebe la Strangiato (With Love, Death & Chaos book 1) by Tor Underhill

Bebe la Strangiato (With Love, Death & Chaos book 1) by Tor Underhill

Yian is the embodiment of Chaos, and he has shit to do. He’s stuck in an endless cycle of rebirth that he’s trying to break, eternally bound to a spacetime sprawling corporation and an unstable girlfriend who likes it that way. She’s the embodiment of Passion, entangled with him on the quantum level. Forevers and no matter what he says. She’s vindictive, jealous and omnipotent. But she’d say she just loves him sooo much.

His one way out is to shepherd humanity along a path that frees him, manipulating the masses to his banner “free your ass, and your mind will follow”.

He’s fighting the FDA sorcery division over his wonder drug that ends the culture wars. And he’s fighting the otherworldly Deep Ones his other ex is slipping through the cracks in your reality. Plus all of the other exes who seem to show up at the worst time with the worst intentions.

It’s a lot. Even for an AllBeing. So he has the usual assortment of eternal champions and AI networked serial killers fighting the probably not really good fight from Pittsburgh, his Eternal City.

This is the first book in the series: With Love, Death & Chaos.

With Love, Death & Chaos is the story of Chaos and Passion, primordial beings embodied in a cycle of perpetual rebirth and entangled on the quantum level. They and others like them take sides in a grand struggle with the spacetime sprawling Syrinx Corporation. Syrinx has bound them into eternal service shepherding intelligent life in the realities it builds for …

Oh shit. He was going off and I wasn’t paying attention. Look. I’m Bebe. I’m in the title of book 1 so trust me. It’s all just about really bad exes. Like apocalyptically murderously bad exes. And it’s…a lot.

There’s Cthulhu at Woodstock 99; AI assisted serial killers turned actuarial assassins; a tattooed murder goddess with perfect feet and a bad attitude (I blame men for making me this way) ; retired mobster couples with bodies in their pool, a tub of margarine and a taste for the threeways; fake ass cartels that might be a thing, if you listen to that chick from Girls Gone Wild Monster Island; and Pittsburgh is the Eternal City in every dimension. He says it’s way cooler than those OTHER eternal cities. I know, he says crazy shit like that all the time.

He fights with the FDA Sorcery Division about troll packets. Oh, and he calls you skinsacks. My friend’s gramma is Papa Legba and she’s lusting after that annoying intersectionalist TV news guy.

My personal favorite is his megabomb that ends the culture war: Asstastica, an insurance required wonder drug that makes straight guys wonder how that feels, you know, when you put it up there for the most satisfying experience ever. For wellness I mean, because it prevents cancer and whatnot just to give them the excuse.

Yea, and he’s nudging society along his chosen path using pop culture, movie dialog and song lyrics to influence us. He fully annotated it so you too can join the followers of chaos (out of control chapter).

I’m totally asking for a friend, but if we’re all okay with girls falling in love with vampires and grossing $3billion, then why can’t I fuck a dead cheerleader? I blame men. And YA fiction.

It’s got these powerful women like the hotmom assassin killing in the name of American hegemony. She meets this ex-SAS guy who his ex says ate a pygmy in Chelsea. Plus other guys who just look cute and try not to make things worse.

He talked so much there’s a second book on the way. That one has Italian Cthulhus; an AI assisted serial killer in the White House; and that supercool hotmom from last time and the men who just make things worse. She’s got drop-dead husbands, that supergenius ex and their three kids Scott, Ramona and Stacey. They’re the bob-omb. Some of them were born in space too. She’s got a Presidential brother she loves and his pain dealing wife who she hates. There’s the huge rock band riding the plague out in a mob castle and their bitter singer being shot at and chased by a truffle pig. And an Italian-American detective walking through it all on a vengeful hunt for his guitar and sunglasses that were stolen long ago in…wait for it…Pittsburgh.

But wait. There’s more. There’s THAT actress who does THAT THING with her hair that you want me and every other woman to do; supermodel-actress eternal champions in battlesuits with PhDs in hand stuff from Miskatonic U; annoying Roman resurrectionists; Clarence fucking Darrow; and these four guys locked down in one apartment with a shirtless fireman and a manipulative goddess with a detachable penis. They say that’s, ah, life finding a way. I say that’s #quarantinequeer. And it all leads to this legendary breakup battle.

And he’s STILL talking. This is gonna be a series that is going to use the whole eternal cycle of breakup and revenge to crack genre norms and answer the question “if your ex really wants to ruin your lives, every one of them across every timespace, would be all be okay with that?”

Boss Daddy by K.C. Crowne

About Featured Book: Boss Daddy by K.C. Crowne

I may be rich but none of that fu@king matters if I’m dead inside.

Losing my wife broke me.
Left a crater in my chest impossible to fill. Until her.

Erin walked into my club like a goddamn storm.
Sharp. Untouchable.
The best bartender I’ve ever seen.
And the first woman who’s made me feel a damn thing in years.

But she’s running.
Haunted by demons that won’t quit.
Let them come.
They have no idea who they’re up against.

The plan is simple.
She moves into my cabin.
Pretends to be mine.
No one touches her. No one even breathes her name.

But this isn’t just a simple game of pretend.
Not when she looks at me like I’m the only thing keeping her together.

I’ll protect Erin.
And the miracle growing inside her.

And if anyone tries to take them from me?
I’ll bury them where they stand.

Joy After Noon by Debra Coleman Jeter

Joy After Noon by Debra Coleman Jeter

JOY AFTER NOON is the story of Joy Hancock, her new gorgeous husband Ray, and his two daughters, Marianne and Jenny. Marianne, a would-be ballerina, is haunted by the image of her deceased, perfection-demanding mother. Her younger sister, Jenny, longing for acceptance and companionship, befriends troubled and trouble-seeking Claudia, with dire consequences. Joy struggles to balance the challenges of career as a college professor coming up for tenure with those of her new family, while Ray faces an ethical dilemma at work. He must decide whether or not to blow the whistle on his colleagues following an ill-advised merger. At home he alternates between being distracted and irritable, and Joy misreads the signals as indicating his disappointment in her due to her failures—to live up to the model set by his first wife and to cope with the girls and domestic life. Inspired in part by Love, Come Softly, this novel explores the challenges of second marriages and dealing with stepchildren during the crucial years of puberty and teenage angst. This book is discounted 35% on Amazon for a limited time.

Jeter’s characters and scenery are so vivid and real that I felt I was right there sharing all their hope and fears. So looking forward to the next installment!—Jana Little

Debra Jeter does a beautiful job creating realistic characters whose lives intertwine in an honest and purposeful way. I found myself still thinking about their stories once the book ended—Katy Owen

Joy After Noon drew me in and my heart ached along with hers as I followed her struggles. I found myself relating to many characters in the novel–cringing sometimes and laughing at others—Tracy Wilbanks

I was instantly drawn into Joy’s story. A beautiful story full of inescapably good characters – you get so pulled into their world that you miss them just as soon as the book is closed.—Paige Boggs

Thing is, they expected her to apologize within the day if not the hour—which is what they would’ve done in her position.

Yes, and Mom’s grounded her car, truck, and keys with her.

And way before Saturday, Reyia is fed up with trying to manage household chores along with the rest of her life!

How long will Mom hold out before she tires of solitary confinement? Doesn’t she care that Dad’s sleeping in his basement mancave?

Yes, Reyia has a nagging worry that her family is about to face a major break up . . .

Mom, please . . . just apologize!

With its lighthearted mix of humor, heart, and family chaos, The Disciplining of Mom is perfect for readers who love coming-of-age tales and heartfelt family dramas.

The Friend of My Mind by Gil Frank

“Written by a man about the woman he loved with all his soul is healing. We NEED more books and works like these.” —Jessica Coates. Victims of Abuse Advocate During the week of mourning Gil opened the blue crate she never agreed to unpack. He discovered her poems of passion and erotic enjoyment with previous lovers. The family was shocked, but the secret consumed him in a tumultuous whirlwind. He hid it until the family left. Then, he let the verses, like Satan bites, scramble his dreams, twist his grief. He did not eat, headaches detained him. By keeping silent about what led her to carnal passion, she obscured how the wounds of their betrayals still impregned her soul and snuck into their relationship. Friend of My Mind is a two-part dialogue between a man and his departed spouse. He writes the letter she wanted to pen—their love story from his perspective. In part two, he recounts his own journey to love — ‘careloving’ face to face with her death, and himself.

Date, Ditch, or Do… My by Lola Gray

Date, Ditch, or Do… My by Lola Gray

“How did your date go last night?” A disembodied voice interrupts the otherwise perfect silence of my office. My assistant, Olivia, has left her intercom on again. I meant to warn her about that the last time it happened, but then I got busy with work and forgot about it entirely. At least I did until her friend from HR, the frizzy blonde, showed up.
What date? Olivia never mentioned that she’s seeing someone. Not that it would be appropriate to discuss her personal life with her boss, but still. We’ve developed a friendship, I thought. In the least, a tolerable working environment.
If she’s dating some clod, I need to know these things. Good assistants are hard to find. There’s a twinge under my ribs. Hmmm. Must be heartburn.
It’s time to shake things up around here. If I don’t make a move soon, that managing mama of hers will finally fix her up with someone who isn’t a degenerate or a reject, and I’ll lose her forever. As my assistant, of course.

*This is a short and steamy age gap office romance that turns out to be more than fun and games. There is no sharing, no cheating, no other man or other woman drama. It comes with a sticky-sweet, guaranteed happily ever after.
Tropes include, but are not limited to:
