The Ship of State: Book One by Richard P. Ley

The Ship of State: Book One by Richard P. Ley

Can the president, a conservative ex-business executive with no political experience, navigate the shark-infested waters of Washington, DC?

President Donald Burlington’s party doesn’t support him, his wife of 23 years has just filed for divorce, and his country is falling apart from within. Both parties and the entire political establishment are eager to take him down because he is trying to eliminate the way the Federal government caters to special interests and emboldens entrenched career politicians to gain and maintain their political power.

Meanwhile, his trusted assistant, Nicole, grows concerned by the president’s fascination with an international film star. Little does he know that the love of his life might be closer than he imagines.

While trying to lead the nation and the free world, President Burlington must deal with contentious policy issues, foreign crises, terrorism, political enemies, and his own personal issues. He’s dedicated to keeping his campaign promises, and he’s not going to go down without a fight, but the water is murky and sharks bite.

Featuring interesting characters and providing conservative solutions to real issues facing us today, this believable political fiction is what the world needs right now. If you enjoyed the movie, The American President or the hit TV series, The West Wing, you’ll love The Ship of State.

*Note: The original title, Escape from Serfdom, was published in 2014, well before Donald Trump hit the national political stage, and has been “bigly” revised and expanded into books one and two of The Ship of State series.

The Marann by Christie Meierz

The Marann by Christie Meierz

She was a teacher, not a spy. High school Spanish teacher Marianne Woolsey was reasonably happy with her life, until Central Command forced her to sign up for a 26 year assignment light-years from Earth. In spite of herself, from the moment she met her new employer’s infant daughter, she was all in, professionally and personally. But she has secrets of her own, buried deep in her past, and even the empathic Tolari can’t be entirely sure of her motives. On Tolar, espionage comes with a death sentence, and Marianne’s growing attraction for her employer might just get her killed.

If you like planetary adventure and heart-warming romance, you’ll love Christie Meierz’ award-winning tales of the reclusive Tolari.

Shadows in the Forest by Jennifer J. Morgan

Shadows in the Forest by Jennifer J. Morgan

Libby Madsen, professional massage therapist and co-owner of the luxurious Dharma Inspired Day Spa, has probably heard it all. During what she thinks of as ‘tabletop confessions’ her clients often talk about way more of their personal lives than she really wants to hear. So when a regular, Maggie Crenshaw, talks about how her daughter went away on a camping trip with friends, it’s just so much chatter. But when Maggie says Isobel didn’t return home on time, is not answering her phone, and that the young woman is diabetic and really needs her meds. Libby offers to pick up the medications at Maggie’s house and deliver them—she and her Labrador puppy, Shadow, are going camping in the same area and it’s no trouble at all.

Except when Libby and Shadow arrive at the campground, Isobel is nowhere to be found, and no one there has seen her or the group of friends she claimed to be traveling with. Libby enlists the help of handsome Forest Ranger Greg Lawson, but even he can’t find anyone who has seen the girl. The fact that she’s now been without her insulin for several days is worrisome, and Greg initiates a Search and Rescue operation.

Libby and Shadow join Greg and the volunteers to search the adjoining camping areas. Some shady characters and a few clues do turn up. But no Isobel. Libby becomes convinced that something more sinister is going on and she’s determined to find out what has happened, little knowing that her own life may be in danger as she gets too close to the truth.

Praise for Jennifer J. Morgan’s Libby Madsen cozy mystery series:
“Readers know what a sucker I am for dogs, and the Libby Madsen mysteries are some of the best. I love, love, love Shadow and Libby and the adventures they get themselves into. Jennifer J. Morgan is destined to be one of the brightest new stars in the cozy mystery scene!” – Connie Shelton, USA Today bestselling author

“An impressively original and deftly crafted read, “Shadows in the Forest” will have a very special appeal for readers with an interest in amateur woman sleuths and their canine companions.” Midwest Book Review

IndieReader says:
“Author Jennifer J. Morgan’s SHADOWS IN THE FOREST weaves together a series of intriguing events that develop into a compelling and well-written cozy mystery.”

“I’m hooked on this series. Completely adore Libby and Shadow (her companion black Lab pup–so adorable!). Without giving any spoilers at all, I couldn’t put the book down once amateur sleuth, Libby Madsen, was on the search for a lost girl in the mountains. The suspense amid so many suspects, I never did figure out how it would all turn out. Overall, it’s a clean read–appropriate for all ages.” – lovereadingmysteries, 5 star online review

“This cozy mystery series has become one of my favorites! Libby Madsen, along with Shadow her dog…Alexis, her best friend/business partner, and her family … and the gorgeous forest ranger, Greg! I love the friend group! And Jennifer doesn’t disappoint in her second book of the series….I find myself turning pages just wanting to know what happens next. Hope the next title comes soon…” – 5 stars on Barnes & Noble

What happens when a runaway bride meets a billionaire with a secret…

Bella Uzano never planned on being a runaway bride. She’s disappointed her family, made an enemy of her ex-fiance and can’t see a way back into anyone’s good graces. But then again, being a good girl is highly overrated.

One moonlit night in Venice, Bella tumbles into the arms and bed of a gorgeous stranger. This beautiful man is only a mask and a first name, and he gives Bella everything she needs with his lips, his hands and his body. Bella wakes up alone craving more pleasure and a renewed resolve to follow her dreams despite her family’s disapproval.

Bella’s passion and family loyalty will be tested when she discovers her new lover is one of the billionaire Street brothers, and his eyes are set on more than acquiring Bella’s family’s business. As Bella tries to resist the magnetic pull of his touch, she will discover he’s hid more from her than just his name.

As she battles her own family, it seems everyone in the Uzano household has also been keeping well-guarded secrets.

How far will Bella go to save her family and her dreams? What will she do when she uncovers the secret about her past and the truth behind the man she can’t resist and his two hidden masks?

Undercover Alien by Nathan Gregory

Undercover Alien by Nathan Gregory

Undercover Alien is the 4th book in a series, but a prequel, not a sequel. We step back in time nearly two decades to meet a “White Hat” cyber warrior in the employ of “The Agency.”

The Earth is unknowingly at war with extraterrestrials. The “Agency” is engaged in an all-out war with cyber hackers but clueless that the enemy hackers are extraterrestrial. Earth has unknowingly become a battleground for interstellar war, as friendly aliens duke it out with aliens bent on destroying humanity.

Earth’s greatest cyber warrior is a nerdy “White Hat” named Rithwick Jahi Pringle, a.k.a. Ritz, who is “on the spectrum.” He has poor people skills with difficulty looking others in the eye, is face-challenged, i.e., mildly face-blind with people he does not know well, and mildly displays classic symptoms of being “on the spectrum.” However, despite his issues, he is very accomplished, talented, and intelligent. His “island of genius” talent is an exceptional memory, especially for cyber details. His neurodiverse characteristics give him an advantage over neurotypicals. He is in denial of the diagnosis, and marks his neurological traits up to his ability to hyper-focus.

Along the way, he meets and mentors a “skinny kid in a hoodie,” who bears a striking similarity to the hero of the other stories.

The tale aims at an audience more mature than the YA genre; Perhaps the appropriate term is “New Adult;” it is far from explicit, but there is some sexual content.

Ritz is irresistibly drawn to the mysterious “Director” of “The Agency,” which he finds confusing and frustrating. Although good-looking and attractive to women, he finds “Love is a fragile butterfly that never lingers, soon tires of his social stumbling and feigned empathy. Although he enjoys brief romances, he’d rather have a friend. Is Director to be either? Or just another warrior, with a smile for armor?”

A Cup of Tea on the Commode: My Multi-Tasking Adventures of Caring for Mom. And How I Survived to Tell the Tale by Mark Steven Porro

A Cup of Tea on the Commode: My Multi-Tasking Adventures of Caring for Mom. And How I Survived to Tell the Tale by Mark Steven Porro

Mark enjoyed his carefree bachelor’s life in Los Angeles. He had no steady girlfriend, no children, few responsibilities outside of work. But that all changed when “The Call” came. Genevieve, his eighty-nine-year-old mother, was on her deathbed. He rushed back to New Jersey to be by her side. Hours became days, days became weeks, then she woke up. So, he moved back into his childhood home and took over her care. His first task was to remove all hazards, which included the current caregivers.

After, Mark asked his mother, “Do you trust me?” She whispered, “Yes.” “Do you understand I will do everything in my power to keep you healthy and safe?” She smiled and nodded. “That means I’m in charge, and that means now you must obey me.” Her mood shifted in an instant. She looked him dead in the eye, then puckered up her lips. He wasn’t sure if this was a sign of surrender or one wishing him luck. He kissed her and hoped for the best.

The parent/child role reversal may not have been unique to Mark, but how he dealt with it was. One day, hoping to make Genevieve’s time on the commode a tad more pleasant, he offered her a cup of her favorite beverage. It was a hit, and a cup of tea on the commode became a staple on the morning menu, and the clear choice for the title of this intimate, funny, and heartwarming memoir of how eldercare can be done. This story is unexpected, hysterical, and life-affirming.

His Demands by K.C. Crowne


About Featured Book: His Demands by K.C. Crowne

The silverfox billionaire is used to getting anything he wants…
And now, he wants to make me his darling little wife.

Working as Ivan Stepanov’s assistant is a literal gig from hell.
After a day of catering to his every demand I text my friend in haste:
‘I HATE my boss but find him so freakin HOT!”

I arrive home with my thoughts stuck on the gorgeous older man ruining my life.
Moments later I’m in my tub lost in ecstasy, screaming Ivan’s name.

KNOCK. KNOCK.

Dripping wet, I put on a robe and head to the front door.
It’s Ivan with a rather large stiffness in his trousers.

“That text to your friend? You sent it to me.”

Then he brings his face inches from mine. “Incase you’re wondering, whatever you imagined in there doesn’t come close to the real thing.”

My cheeks blush with embarrassment. “Will you show me?”

That night was everything.
My first sweet taste of submission.
But nothing could have prepared me for Ivan’s list of demands the next day…

“Move in with me. Marry me. Have my baby.”

I stand up in shock, “I’ll get back to you…”

To which he responds: “This isn’t up for discussion. You’re not going anywhere.”

His Five Night Stand: Steamy Second Chance Contemporary Romance by Emma Thorne

His Five Night Stand: Steamy Second Chance Contemporary Romance by Emma Thorne

** Only $0.99, 80% off the regular $4.99 price! **

Five scorching nights, two fragile hearts, one broken rule…

Five nights with a gorgeous man will make her forget her ex forever. At least that’s what Callie’s neighbor promised when Callie moves into a new apartment building. Devastated by her boyfriend’s confession that he’s in love with another woman, Callie can’t imagine anything could heal her broken heart.

Loss has brought Theo to his knees before, so he knows just how to repair Callie’s shattered confidence. After five nights in his arms, she’ll leave her heartache behind, give voice to her deepest desires and be ready to forge a real, lasting love with someone new…it just won’t be him.

Theo can give Callie back her voice and teach her to ask for what she wants from her lover, but what if she asks for more than he can give? Will he break his only rule – no falling in love – for her?

Here’s a sneak peak!

————————-

“It’s this one,” Billie said, sorting through her keys. “304.” As she fiddled with the keys someone opened the unit next door.

A tall guy wearing a black t-shirt and jeans stepped outside and turned to lock the door. He smiled as he glanced at Billie and me. I swallowed, my mouth immediately dry. This guy was jaw-droppingly gorgeous. He had wavy dark brown hair almost black, a strong jaw, and these amazing pale blue eyes that jumped out against his olive skin tone. He had broad shoulders, and strong biceps. When he turned away, I couldn’t help but notice that his backside was just as gorgeous. I had to remind myself not to stare again.

“Oh, that’s Theo,” Billie said to me softly. “Hey Theo!” she called a little louder. “New tenant, Callie. You should say hello. You two might be neighbors.” Her voice was a little sing-song as she fiddled with her keys.

“Oh, I don’t want to interrupt him,” I said, wishing I had bothered to brush my hair that morning. I didn’t even have on mascara since I’d cried it all off the night before.

Theo strode toward us smiling. His pale blue eyes were even more magnetic close up.

He held out his hand. “Pleased to meet you, Callie, or shall I say neighbor,” he gave my hand a firm squeeze. His voice had a lilt to it, British I assumed, though I’d never been really good with accents outside of knowing they made me melt.

His hands were large, strong and warm. I immediately liked the feeling of his skin against mine.

“Maybe neighbor,” I said, laughing as my cheeks burned. “I need to apply and see the place, but it seems nice. Like everyone I’ve met seems wonderful and so welcoming . . .”

His hair was slightly long so it hung in waves not quite hitting his shoulder or falling into his eyes. I had to fight the urge to reach out and brush the curls off his forehead. “Oh, you’ll like it here,” Theo said. “Billie runs a tight ship. Nothing but the most beautiful apartments this side of the University. Right Billie?”

“Got it!” Billie said holding up a key. I doubted she’d been listening to us at all. She’d fiddled with a series of keys before hitting pay dirt. “Almost thought I’d have to leave you here with Theo and who knows where that would lead.”

“Who knows?” he said, grinning at me.

“Right,” I said, smiling back thinking that being alone with Theo was not a horrible thought, not a horrible thought at all.

Billie opened the door and gestured for me to follow.

“I’ll leave you two to your tour then,” Theo said, nodding. “Later neighbor.” He turned and glanced back once with a smile before he walked down the hall.

“Bye,” I said, almost under my breath.
