As the saying goes, “All that glitters is not gold,” which Starks discovers when gut-wrenching betrayal by his wife sends him over the edge and into a maximum security prison. There, Starks is a new “fish,” stripped of nearly everything he’s always relied on. In that place, where inmates and guards have their own rules and codes of conduct, Starks is forced to face the darker side of life, and his own darker side, especially when the betrayals, both inside and outside the prison, don’t stop. He must choose which path to follow when the line between right and wrong becomes blurred: one that leads to getting out of the physical and emotional hellhole he finds himself in or one that keeps him alive.

Winner of the 2013 Eric Hoffer Book Award for YA and a Grand Prize Finalist. The young elf desired only to follow in his mother’s footsteps and become a healer. But when the Emperor’s army attacks his village to punish traitors and conscript youth, Seanchai flees to the mountains, seeking safe harbor with an uncle he has never met. He is shocked as many people sacrifice their lives to ensure he reaches a Wycaan Master, an enigmatic woman named Mhari, who can teach him to wield a powerful death-and-life magic that might just free the races of Odessiya.

In a world defined by strict racial boundaries, where humans rule, dwarves hide deep underground, and elves are a slave nation, Seanchai must find a way to create friendships and trust, unheard of since the fall of the Wycaan Masters, and reunite the races into an alliance that will bring freedom to all.

But sometimes one must choose between his companions and his destiny. Seanchai abhors his ability to kill and, in the friendships he forges, discovers something potentially more powerful than his magic.

Friendship, however, can be a double-edged sword.

When the police arrest Anson Ketcher and charge him with murdering his wife, all he keeps saying is: “The ghost killed her.”

Except Eddie McCloskey, mixed up part-time ghost hunter now turned paranormal investigator for real—and by the by, also turned expert witness. Once Eddie’s hired, the prosecution doubles-down and brings in Gracie, a heavy-hitter who specializes in exposing frauds, quacks, and charlatans, and who has her own daytime syndicated TV show. She’s a shark in a suit, determined to refute anything Eddie tries to say.

So what’s a paranormal investigator to do? Investigate the paranormal, of course. But he has a bad moment when the ghost itself writes him a note—claiming its innocence! Well, ghosts have been known to lie, but this sure doesn’t help Eddie’s cause.

He sets out to prove that a ghost could have killed the woman, and during his testimony he gets what looks like a break but…not so fast there!

Book Description:

For 200 years, the hero’s magic pen has been passed on from generation to generation. The newest hero is Alice Goodenough, an 18-year-old junior from Washington High School. While her friends spent their summer working and having fun, Alice found herself doing battle with creatures most human beings don’t even realize exist. A giant snake. A blood-sucking prince. A terrifying half-man, half-hedgehog. Dastardly dwarfs intent on mind-controlling everyone who uses a cell phone.

Now, senior year has begun. With it comes a new challenge at school, where bullies have grown bolder and classes more challenging. As if that’s not enough, Alice must face off against a collection of Corrupted who all share a terrible secret, one that might awaken a creature capable of doing untold damage. To uncover the secret, Alice will have to face off against a man-eating lizard, a bloodthirsty sea captain, and a mysterious wizard who can see into the future …

This book contains the following episodes:

Episode Four: The Orphanage of Doom

After facing off with the dreaded dwarf named Sam Grayle, Alice finds her dreams plagued by two separate visions. In one, she’s floating through a massive mansion filled with old, dusty furniture and drafty windows. Shadows dance across the wall. Children cry out in terror. A mysterious animal growl echoes through the halls.

In her second dream, a terrible smoke-like creature roams the streets of Minneapolis, feeding off human victims while it plots a terrible revenge that threatens to have far-reaching consequences. Alice must decide which dream to pursue: does she foil the smoke-creature’s plot or try to rescue the children from an unseen evil?

Episode five: Blood and Thunder

Upon making a surprising discovery in a Corrupted’s lair, Alice finds herself torn between her responsibilities as the hero and her desire to live a normal life. She’s been granted a unique opportunity to leave the entire world of the hero behind. But before she can make her ultimate
choice, her nightmares return …

A ship is coming. And aboard that ship is one of the most terrifying Corrupted creatures Alice has faced yet. In order to face her foe, Alice will have to do without the help of her scorned friend, Br’er Rabbit.

At school, a miraculous recovery by the star of the baseball team prompts more questions, all of them bringing Alice back to that fateful encounter at the orphanage of doom. To make matters worse, a school bully has taken his terrorizing too far, a friend is in trouble, and the mysterious ship in Alice’s nightmare holds a terrible secret …

Episode six: The Order of the Golden Dragon

Three mysterious golden coins. What is their purpose? Alice must find out, and in order to do so, she will need to use all of the skills she’s learned so far. She cannot fail. Failure means a fate worse than death.

Agnim the Mage haunts her dreams, using his terrible black magic to plague Alice with nightmares. Once a character in the Grimms’ fairy tales, his magical powers have stronger and stronger the more Corrupted he has become. He has foreseen a cataclysmic event that could mean the end of the world, and only the hero stands in his way. But in order to stop him, Alice will have to find him. And soon. Before Agnim steals her sanity and destroys her mind.

Agnim knows her weakness. He knows her fears. He controls her dreams. He is the most dangerous Corrupted Alice has ever faced. There is no guarantee she can defeat him.

In these trying times, only one thing is certain:

The Golden Dragon will awaken.

Rating: 4.6 out of 5 stars
Kindle Unlimited: Yes

Regular Price: $3.99

Book Description:

Parallel worlds are best left to theoretical physicists. Not Rayne Moore and her boyfriend, Tim Crowe, two struggling screenwriters. Their passion for movies will lead to an unusual door, where the exit is an entrance. And what’s coming next…is “coming soon” to our world.

Tim, home from Massachusetts General Hospital and recovering from retinal surgery, sneaks out one night and sees a movie (with one eye). The film paints a paranoid near-future, as impersonal and invasive as a grainy security-camera image. The trailer for coming attractions isn’t a tease–it’s a warning. But the pièce de résistance is the theater itself. Tim experiences movie magic unlike anything he’s ever seen. When he goes missing, Rayne follows his faint trail to the theater, seeing an eerie clip of coming attractions. On the screen, she spots a lone figure on a crowded street. Tim? When she walks down the aisle and opens the rear exit, her journey begins.

Because at this theater, you never go out…the way you come in. Now turn off your cell phone, dim the lights.

It’s showtime.

Book Description:

The FOURTH witty adventure in Elizabeth Zelvin’s Bruce Kohler Series

TRIPLE VENTI SKINNY MACCHIATO WITH CYANIDE, PLEASE…

Sophia might have been in recovery, but even alcohol would have been healthier than that coffee she drank after her Twelve Step meeting. The cyanide in it killed her a lot faster than her addiction might have–it’s instant, reliable, and means someone hates you a lot.

But people who knew her through the program had reason to like her a lot–especially one of her grateful sponsees who just happened to be one-third of a crack amateur detective team. Enter Zelvin’s Three Musketeers of Murder–Bruce Kohler, recovering alcoholic and amateur sleuth extraordinaire, and his friends, techno-geek Jimmy (who’s also recovering) and Jimmy’s girl friend Barbara, New York’s brashest, funniest co-dependent.

It seems Jimmy, who has twenty years of recovery in AA, has discovered an addiction he didn’t know he had. He’s now in Debtors Anonymous. When he confesses all to Barbara–no costly vacation this year!–she makes an announcement of her own. Wouldn’t you know, the news has come at the worst possible time.

And that’s before Jimmy’s sponsor dies. As always with these three, the trail winds through the program and out again, as they search for a murderer mean enough to kill the soft-hearted Sophia. But surprise! She had more than one enemy…

A special treat: if you think Barbara was bossy before, wait till you see her with raging hormones. She’s a tough customer, sure–and sometimes a challenge to her friends and loved ones–but she’s a laugh-out-loud gift to the reader. Because she’s always blurting what we’re thinking.

On the edge of a small Ohio town stands an enigmatic house that looks like a window into earth’s past, as if various phases of history have been frozen in mortar and masonry. Crowned by a towering industrial smokestack and surrounded by fields of wheat, nobody knows what to make of it.

Fifteen-year-old Will Steemjammer is aware that his family’s lifestyle is far from normal, that no one else has a home cluttered with dangerous steam-powered machinery. His neighbors stare at his house with suspicion, kids his age call him a freak, and his family avoids electricity like the plague. Will knows his secretive father is hiding something big, but when he summons the courage to demand answers, his father mysteriously vanishes – just as his mother had a few months earlier.

After Will and his little sister, Angelica, tear apart their house to find clues, they discover more than they bargained for. Will and his family are exiles from another world, one that runs on steam power and seemingly impossible technology. In this other realm the Steemjammers have powerful enemies, and their entire extended family is in danger. With the help of his eccentric relatives, Will must use the infamous Steemjammer intelligence and resourcefulness to fight back, or he may never see his parents again – and his enemies may become unstoppable.

Book Description:

Tormented by a secret she feels powerless to share, Willow’s guilt consumes and drains her normally optimistic nature. She’s hiding a secret that others deserve to know about–need to know about.

Willow is well acquainted with keeping her thoughts to herself. A lifetime of misguided, well-meaning loved ones teaching her to harness the thoughts that set her mind traveling, has made her a master in the art of secrecy. She’s always known she is different and she has learned how to fit in, inspired by the confidence her true love has given her. “I love you just as you are,” Sterling whispers to her under their willow tree.

But some secrets are meant to be shared. Some secrets are just too large, too important to keep to oneself. Reaching out to her favorite confidant, she is shocked and silenced at the advice her revelation produces. “Tell no one,” Gramma warns. “They will all think you have gone mad.”

Willow continues to conceal what she knows and crawls into depression and isolation as her young marriage heads to ruin. The threat of losing the love of the young man she gave her heart to as a child, catapults her to take action. In desperation, Willow reaches for help from Helen to pacify her husband and calm his increasing concern.

“You’re only as sick as your secrets,” Helen reminds Willow at their first session, entreating her to unburden herself. Guarded and struggling, Willow weighs the merit of exposing this secret against the inevitable ridicule that will follow her and her loved ones. Should she ignore the advice of her grandmother?

“They won’t believe me anyway,” she consoles herself.

Book Description:

From the award-winning author of “You Shall Know Our Names” and “Claims of Family,” comes the story of the personal cost of justice and the power of love to heal damaged souls.

In early 19th century Bohemia, they are called the Nokmim, the Revengers, and their deeds are legendary. In Jewish villages, men sing proudly of their exploits. In the halls of power, their names are whispered in terror. Their leader is known as “The Angel of Death” for his brutal retaliation against those who commit crimes against his people. By his side is the one called “the Beast,” the torturer who exacts confessions from the accused.

Bu those who are close to these men, those who call them brother, father, son or husband, fear the scars to their bodies and their souls caused by the deeds they perform in the name of justice for the oppressed.

The Beast is the gentle Judah Halevi, a surgeon dedicated to saving lives, treating the poor and advancing medicine. Personal tragedy led him to join the Revengers and follow the Angel of Death. Each deed of vengeance, however righteous, erodes his will to live until he descends into a pit of alcohol and drugs. It is the Angel of Death, Ezekiel Benzion, who rescues him, leading him back to life and a chance to find love.

Ezekiel Benzion suffers his own agonies for the justice he brings to others. He yearns for the day when he can live in peace, loving his wife Judith, raising his children and breeding his goats. Until that miracle occurs, however, he continues to respond to oppression with swift and brutal acts of vengeance.

In a challenge of Biblical proportions, he is ordered to sacrifice one life in his family to save many others. He struggles to discover a way to forgive himself and the man who commanded him to perform the deed. When the path to forgiveness is offered by men outside his world, will he accept their help to learn how to bear the the burden of his guilt?

Part of the series, Tales from the Judah Halevi Journals, yet designed to stand on its own, “Loving Sons and Brothers,” brings to life the legendary Ezekiel Benzion, a towering figure who inspires many others, helping them find respect and safety, a man willing to commit terrible deeds to provide a better future for the generations to follow him. Ezekiel Benzion keeps his weapons ready and his eyes open for danger, even as he builds a place of peace and healing for others to share with the family he adores…and his beloved goats.

Book Description:

Freedom never felt so good.

Anastasiya Petrov ran from her fate. The youngest of seven sisters and promised to one of the Princes of a rival pack, she refuses to be a bargaining chip. Instead, she flees to a remote area in the United States, changes her name to Tasia Connor, and settles into her new life.

Alex Chilikov might be an Estonian prince, but he was raised in the United States and loves it here, especially Woodland Creek, Indiana, where he’s followed close behind his bride-to-be. She might be able to hide who she is from the others, but he’d recognize her scent anywhere, and he plans to use his trickster abilities to help him obtain what he wants. He wants out from under his own father’s heavy thumb.

However, he’s not the only one searching for her. Her father has made some dangerous enemies, and though she continues to attempt to escape Alex’s protection, he’ll fight to keep her safe. Tasia will risk almost anything to keep her freedom, but only if she can resist a Wicked Jackal.
