Book Description:

After years as a black ops CIA agent, nothing surprises Roy Kincaid, yet his current assignment is close to a bust. How could his target—renegade genetic freaks—drop off the radar as if they never existed? Burnt out and discouraged, he hunches over a meal in a backwater diner when a half-frozen woman with the look of an abused runaway staggers through the door. On his feet in an instant, Roy kicks himself. His first instinct is to help her, make certain she stays long enough for the bluish cast to leave her lips. His second is to finish his meal and leave. The world is full of broken women. It’s not his job to fix them, but he can’t take his eyes off her.

Glory’s telepathic ability blares a harsh warning. Roy hunts those like her, but damn if he didn’t buy her dinner. Maybe she can fool him, just for tonight. Add a dry motel room to the meal. If she plays it very cool, he’ll never find out she’s on the run from the same group he’s targeted for death.

Enhanced genetics only go so far. A roadblock and her face on a Most Wanted flyer shatter her fragile truce with Roy. If her Handlers find her, they’ll kill her. If Roy finds out what she is, she’ll be worse than dead.

About the Author:

Ann Gimpel is USA Today bestselling author. She’s also a mountaineer and vagabond at heart. She’s stood on top of some really gnarly peaks, and discovered Zen mindfulness comes in very useful when the only other option is screaming your lungs out or curling into a fetal position because you’re too scared to do anything else.

She loves to travel. 2014 was the “Antarctica Year.” 2015 was mostly writing, but after two trips to the southern pole, she headed to the Canadian Arctic and the Northwest Passage. Be sure to check out the polar bear photos on her FB wall or her website. 2016 was backpacking and a two month cross country trip in a motorhome. 2017 may well see her back in Antarctica.

A lifelong aficionado of the unusual, Ann began writing speculative fiction a few years back. Since then her short stories have appeared in a number of webzines, magazines, and anthologies. Her longer paranormal romance and urban fantasy books are available in print, audio, and e-format. She recently made the leap into self-publishing, loves the freedom, and it’s possible she’ll never look back.

Book Description:

A panoramic and epic novel in the grand romantic style, PUSH NOT THE RIVER is the rich story of Poland in the late 1700s–a time of heartache and turmoil as the country’s once peaceful people are being torn apart by neighboring countries and divided loyalties. It is then, at the young and vulnerable age of seventeen, when Lady Anna Maria Berezowska loses both of her parents and must leave the only home she has ever known.

With Empress Catherine’s Russian armies streaming in to take their spoils, Anna is quickly thrust into a world of love and hate, loyalty and deceit, patriotism and treason, life and death. Even kind Aunt Stella, Anna’s new guardian who soon comes to personify Poland’s courage and spirit, can’t protect Anna from the uncertain future of the country.

Anna, a child no longer, turns to love and comfort in the form of Jan, a brave patriot and architect of democracy, unaware that her beautiful and enigmatic cousin Zofia has already set her sights on the handsome young fighter. Thus Anna walks unwittingly into Zofia’s jealous wrath and darkly sinister intentions. Forced to survive several tragic events, many of them orchestrated by the crafty Zofia, a strengthened Anna begins to learn to place herself in the way of destiny–for love and for country. Heeding the proud spirit of her late father, Anna becomes a major player in the fight against the countries who come to partition her beloved Poland.

PUSH NOT THE RIVER is based on the true eighteenth century diary of Anna Maria Berezowska, a Polish countess who lived through the rise and fall of the historic Third of May Constitution. Vivid, romantic, and thrillingly paced, it paints the emotional and unforgettable story of the metamorphosis of a nation–and of a proud and resilient young woman.

Book Description:

Stone Devil Duke
Marked for death, Lady Augustine Christopherson finds herself scouring the slums of London in a desperate search to find the men who killed her father, and are determined to dispose of her. To protect her family, to protect herself, she is determined to find the men before they find her. The last thing she wanted was an entanglement with a duke that threatens her very survival…

Hardened long ago, the last thing the Duke of Dunway wanted was an entanglement with a chit of the ton. But in the flash of a pistol, his fate is altered as he finds himself honor-bound to protect Lady Augustine from, of all things, herself.

Unmasking the Marquess
Some people are born with backbone. Others have to fight for it.
List in-hand of suitable bachelors, Lady Reanna Halstead, the epitome of naivety, is thrust into London society with demands to gain a husband. To her utter amazement, she manages to capture the attentions of the Marquess of Southfork. Her love, dreams, and future are soon pinned on her marriage to this one man. One handsome, kind, fantastic man. One man, who has a very different idea of what this marriage will be.

He will be hated, before he is loved.
Killian Hayward, Marquess of Southfork, is only one step away from completing the revenge he has fought his entire life for. All he has to do is marry Lady Halstead. The one woman that is the key to his revenge. To his peace. The one woman that will threaten the very foundation of his entire existence.

My Captain, My Earl
One destined to live life on the seas.
As captain of the Windrunner, Katalin Dewitt has one mission in life. Serve the ship. The ship that has been her home her entire life. The ship that is the key to keeping her father safe from certain death.

She never expected to take pity on an injured deckhand from an enemy ship and allow him onto the Windrunner. And she certainly never expected to allow him into her life.
One determined to make his way home.

Bound, gagged, and held captive on one ship after another for two long years, Jason Christopherson had long since given up hope of ever getting back to land, much less to his beloved England.

He never expected to land on a pirate ship, bound for land. And he certainly never expected to fall in love with his new captain, threatening the one thing he needed most in life-to return home.

Neither expected to fall in love. Neither expected to be torn apart by a brutal betrayal.

Book Description:

So what’s a nice Jewish girl doing at an Easter sunrise service?

Lawyer Rebecca Schwartz would pick the one with the body nailed to the landmark cross! Coincidence? Not so much. She’s there because her boy friend’s covering the service for the San Francisco Chronicle. The body’s there because someone’s making a statement he doesn’t want the press to miss.

Next: mass shellfish poisoning at Pier 39. A very different kind of serial killer is operating here—one who seems to have a grudge against the whole city.

And this is a very different kind of serial killer tale—a funny one. (If your don’t count the murders, or course.) Rebecca’s warm and witty, never takes herself too seriously, and on one occasion offers closing testimony with green hair. A highly embarrassing moment, but the bright chartreuse is all in the service of making her case.

No way does she believe her client would nail somebody—especially to a cross. And the things she has to do to prove it are hilarious and often unorthodox, yet always professional. Sometimes hyper-professional–the average lawyer simply can’t be bothered spraying herself with Thunderbird to fit in with her witnesses!

A wild ride through Baghdad by the Bay…and a great courtroom drama.

Book Description:

Passion, medicine, and politics collide in this page-turning thriller. The arduous process of getting a new medical procedure approved by a bureaucracy plays havoc in the lives of a young neurosurgeon with a revolutionary cure for nerve injury and a beautiful ballerina who needs the treatment as her only hope. As the doctor battles a system stacked against him, his career and the life of his beautiful patient hang in the balance.

Brilliant Manhattan neurosurgeon David Lang has developed a breakthrough treatment to repair damaged nerves, which promises a long-awaited cure for paralyzing brain and spinal cord injuries. He believes his treatment is safe, but he must first get permission to use it from New York State’s health system, CareFree. Beset with budget overruns and other priorities, the powerful agency puts David’s procedure on the back burner. To the surgeon’s despair, it will take years for CareFree to study the new technique and for him to complete the red tape needed for acceptance. He’s warned that if he performs the treatment without the proper authorization, he can lose his license and go to jail.

His frustrations mount. Then one case pushes him over the edge.

Lovely, strong-willed dancer Nicole Hudson rose to Broadway stardom from a wretched childhood only to have her life shattered by a tragic accident. David’s new treatment is her only hope. She knows the risks of the experimental procedure, but she desperately wants to try it. To be effective, it must be done soon. They cannot wait years to go through the approval process of CareFree.

A rebel doctor, a beautiful dancer, a growing passion, and a dangerous run-in with the law converge in one explosive case.

NOBLE VISION is an exciting novel with nail-biting suspense and plot twists you’ll never see coming. You’ll experience the thrill of a medical breakthrough, the anguish of a tragic accident, the agony of life-changing decisions made outside of one’s control, and the excitement of two people from discordant worlds discovering their own supreme harmony.

Tightly plotted, elegantly written, vibrantly romantic, and keenly controversial, this timely novel makes the ideal thinking-person’s thriller.

BLACK MARKET ADOPTION SCAM ROCKS A SMALL TOWN

In a small Adirondack Mountain town, secrets are hard to keep. No wonder Trout Run, NY is shocked when sweet, dowdy Mary Pat Sheehan dies from complications of childbirth. No one even knew she was pregnant. How did she hide her condition? Who is the father?

And where is the baby?

Mary Pat’s devout parents are frozen in denial, but Police Chief Frank Bennett is determined not to let this scandal be swept under the rug. The more he digs, the more convinced he becomes that Mary Pat’s baby is very much alive. That someone is criminally responsible for Mary Pat’s death. And that other vulnerable young women are at risk.

When Frank uncovers a highly profitable black market adoption ring operating on his turf, he is determined to root it out. But cooperation is hard to find. For loving couples desperate to create a family, the lure of a healthy white infant is impossible to resist. And for wily manipulators desperate for cash, the lure is even stronger. Now Frank must navigate the dangerous intersection of love and greed. And one wrong turn could spell death to those he most wants to protect.

Book Description:

Ride down the greatest American rivers of the West with Native Americans, mountain men, French trappers, bold women, and mystical wanderers. The Wild Rivers West series is richly told historical fiction of high adventure. Longings and determination are experienced through the characters, events, and luxurious writing. Read it. Live it!

THE YELLOWSTONE

Hailed by the Los Angeles Times as “an adventurer’s story told as never before,” this is the saga of a man compelled by the dark, delicious grasp of a river to carve out a home in America’s most awe-inspiring backcountry.

Native Americans, the first few white people who dared to explore the West, and the settlers who followed all, braved a glorious and treacherous wilderness to stake their lives on the bounty of the great rivers charging out of the Rocky Mountains.

Mac Maclean, finds his destiny high in the headwaters of the Yellowstone—the swift river of life, death, and dreams—that rumbles through two majestic waterfalls and charges across the vast plains of Montana.

Venturing into uncharted territory, he creates a life fully his own. And he has no idea that future generations will honor his memory and build on the life he created on the banks of the river he called home.

THE POWDER RIVER

The adventure unfolds during the dramatic journey of the determined Cheyenne Native Americans from Indian Territory back to their Montana homeland and the mighty Powder River.

The northern Cheyenne still call the Powder River country their sacred home. But, held captive far to the south in so-called Indian Territory, the remnants of this once-mighty nation are growing weak. To survive, they must battle their way across fifteen hundred miles to their ancestral home, fending off pursuit by thousands of well-armed soldiers.

THE SNAKE RIVER

A son of Ireland embarks on the adventure of a lifetime in this tale of men and women bold enough to take on one of the wildest rivers in the West.

In the 19th century, those who followed the treacherous, sidewinding course of the Snake River were carried to some of the most beautiful country on earth: the untouched Pacific Northwest.

Flare O’Flaherty—mountain trapper and gambler—sets out on an incredible journey when he agrees to lead a group of missionaries downriver to the remote headquarters of the mighty Hudson’s Bay Company.

There he faces the greatest challenge of a wandering man’s lifetime—an extraordinary woman who teaches Indian children. He also meets a young Shoshone in search of the white father he never knew. Together they find their destiny along the mighty river that bears the shape of a serpent and holds the promise of home.

THE HIGH MISSOURI

Dylan, a would-be priest, explores America’s Northern rivers and mountains. On his journey, a beautiful woman teaches him about love, lust, and betrayal. And a strange, white-bearded enemy instructs him about fate in this quest toward the legendary High Missouri River.

Dylan learns what it means to brawl, scratch, and struggle—for his life and for his soul.

As the foundation is poured and the walls go up, each of the hurtful memories are uncovered. Finally the mystery, left in the ashes of the burned home, is revealed.

Leah Nash Complete Mysteries

Author: Susan Hunter

Genre: Mystery

Rating: 4.3 out of 5 stars
Free via Kindle Unlimited: Yes

Regular Price: $6.99
Today’s Price: $0.99

Click Here to Buy!

Book Description:

Brave, smart-mouthed female reporter tackles three murder mysteries—for a killer price!

Keeping out of trouble just isn’t on Leah Nash’s list of accomplishments. But reporting is—and she has ten years’ experience to prove it. So if she’s such great reporter, why is she back living with her mom in freezing Himmel, Wisconsin instead of covering crime in sunny Miami?

Answer: Good reporter, even better smartass; fired in disgrace—twice (well, once she quit, technically). In other words, everybody’s favorite kind of female sleuth: smart with a smart mouth, intensely independent, willing to go where no one else will, and, when you get right down to it, fearless.

In this collection, Leah meets murder head-on:

She dives into the mysterious, watery death of a nun with ties to Leah’s sister…whose death years ago was even more mysterious.

She delves into the apparent suicide of a doctor with ties to a drug ring much bigger than small town Himmel.

And she investigates the cold case of a high school sweetheart…whose town-wide adoration is almost too good to be true.

DANGEROUS HABITS

Susan Hunter’s somewhat cozy, sometimes hard-boiled, and altogether absorbing small town mystery series gets off to a chilling start as Leah watches city crews try to stop a dead oak adrift on the swollen Himmel River from colliding with a dam. And suddenly finds herself looking at this potential headline: “Dead Nun Floats Into Town.” Because it turns out the oak picked up quite a bit of debris in its journey, including a body.

DANGEROUS MISTAKES

“All of us are dying,” states a cryptic Betty Meier to no-nonsense (and oft-accused smart-mouth) reporter Leah Nash one morning, Hours later, Betty’s house ends up torched—and Leah’s covering it for the tiny Himmel Times Weekly. And then she receives a midnight phone call from a mysterious young woman named Isabel, begging her to investigate the death of her wealthy father, Garrett Whiting, a renowned surgeon with possible ties to fraudulent activity. Boohoo, thinks our heroine. Except Isabel found him in his study with a bullet to the brain and a poisonous rum and coke in hand.

DANGEROUS PLACES

Things are finally looking up for Leah Nash. A former investigative reporter (and admittedly reputable smart-mouth), she’s now a full-time true crime writer. And after the publishing of her first book, she’s finally home-sweet-home in small town Himmel after a whirlwind 3-month book tour. But her homecoming library reading is interrupted by Sammy, a childhood friend whose brother was long ago accused of murdering his high school sweetheart, Heather. Sammy begs Leah to re-investigate Heather’s mysterious disappearance—a cold case decades old. And when she does, she discovers town secrets even she never saw coming.

Come to Me Alive:

Bryce Landry, country music’s hottest star, has it all, or so everyone on the outside thinks. They can’t see his struggle to discover himself, to find his place in unfamiliar territories, both as a dad and as a Christian. He takes a month off and escapes to the small town of Oden Bridge, Louisiana, where his daughter lives with his grandparents.

Sophie Thatcher has never been a risk taker but never thought her life lacked until her boyfriend of three years breaks off their relationship. Only then, does she begin to question what she’s missed by always playing it safe. Meeting Bryce is a call to action. She can let fear rule or trust in faith, which means taking the biggest risk of her life.

As the weeks and months pass, they discover finding each other was easy, but holding on will be a different story.

Come to Me Free:

Career-driven Dani Trahan wasn’t interested in finding a husband. At only twenty-eight, she had plenty of time in her future to settle down and have a family, but for now, her sole focus was keeping her restaurant afloat. When tragedy strikes, however, she’s forced to examine her priorities and relationships.

Rob Jackson didn’t do relationships. He’d long ago accepted that happily ever afters didn’t belong to him. That was a decade ago, right around the time he stopped believing in God. Then he met Dani, and for the first time in ten years, he wanted to believe again—in love and in God.

To move beyond friendship, Dani and Rob must first accept several truths, but can they learn to rely on faith before it’s too late?

Come to Me Again:

Dominic Sellers dreamed of escaping a life of poverty and making a living playing music. On the brink of giving up, he’s offered the chance of a lifetime to be the new guitarist for Bryce Landry. His life finally aligned with his goals, but something was missing.

Four years ago, Maisy Rothchild walked away from her fiancé—her best friend and the only man she’d ever loved. She’d give anything to go back and change that day, but that wasn’t possible. There were factors that complicated the situation, things she couldn’t tell anyone.

When she makes a bold move to restore their friendship, can the same love that tore them apart bring them back together?

Come to Me Joyful:

Kate Jergens presents her life as the picture of perfection to everyone outside her close-knit circle. Old insecurities prevent her from letting people see who she really is. As the holidays approach, events cause those insecurities to reappear.

When Luke Tatum catches his co-worker, Kate, with her guard down he realizes he doesn’t know her as well as he thought. As he discovers who Kate really is behind her mask of flawlessness, his admiration for her grows and he finds himself more drawn to her.

When faced with the possibility of losing someone she loves, Kate’s faith wavers. This Christmas season, will she accept support from the man who loves her or will she push him away?

Rescuing Ladybugs, by Diane Lil Adams
When Maura Blaine turns twenty-five, she inherits a cabin from her paternal grandparents, though she hasn’t seen them or her dad, in seventeen years. Her mom wants her to sell the property, but Maura wants to see it first. Soon she begins to fall in love with the mountains, and with Jason Lancaster, the young carpenter who’s going to make repairs to the cabin.

The Unrelenting Tide, by Lynnette Bonner
Widowed former Hollywood actress Devynne Lang has been living a quiet life in the San Juan Islands of the Pacific Northwest. For years, she’s hoped her fabricated death would keep her identity safe from the public, and more to the point, from the stalker who forced her into hiding. But strange things have been happening around her place and this time, with a daughter to protect, she can’t afford one mistake–even if it means letting Carcen Lang get close enough to help.

None so Blind, by Chautona Havig
When Dani wakes with no knowledge of who or where she is–no memories of her life at all–David and Dani Weeks discover that “til death do us part” takes on an entirely unexpected meaning. Practically speaking, Dani died. But she didn’t.

What’s a gal to do?

In a desperate attempt to separate the old life from the new, Dani insists on a new name, a twist of her old one–Ella.

Ella’s doctors can’t explain what happened. Her children can’t understand why she doesn’t know them, and her husband finds himself torn between admiration for the “new” version of his wife and missing the woman he’s known for over fifteen years.

Will Ella ever regain her memory? Why does their pastor suspect it’s one great hoax?

Falling for Mr. Write, by Carol Moncado
Bethany Sheer’s weak heart means she stays away from emotion at all costs. Gavin Parmiggiano isn’t proud of his past with women, but he finds himself falling for his new boss. Can he break down her walls and protect her heart when she falls, too?

The Random Acts of Cupid, by Amanda Tru
Elise Hutchins has a secret. She likes to anonymously play matchmaker for people she doesn’t really know.

But when lawyer Ryan Jenkins discovers she’s Seattle’s Cupid, he thinks her methods are deceptive and she shouldn’t be interfering in the lives of others.

Now Elise has 24 hours to present her case and prove her character to Ryan. Otherwise, he will reveal her secret and ruin her reputation along with possibly all of the good she’s done.

Book Description:

Another side of London…

After ten years together, including some difficult times, Adam and Eva are still as in love as they were when they told each other every day that they loved each other every day more.

All-round adorable Adam – adopted, mixed-race, with a deep social conscience that he shares with his wife – claims to have no issues other than having no issues. Raised by remarkable parents, he has grown up happy and grounded, uninterested in his “other parents” or in why they might have had to give him up.

Having lost her father at fifteen, and still suffering a terrible relationship with “mother”, Eva has more issues than she cares to admit, and it falls to an unexpected visit by two policemen to uncover a secret she has kept from her husband since the first day they met.

With the past at last explained, and the worst of it now apparently behind them, today has been a day of good news, which Eva is looking forward to sharing with the friends who have invited them to dinner. But their hosts seem to have very different plans for the evening, and the air is thick with tension as gradually the reason for their invitation begins to come out…

Its satirical humor sometimes black and irreverent, POLK, HARPER & WHO is a contemporary tale of complex family relationships, of friendships being put to the test, and of imperfect London love within imperfect London lives.

About the Author:

Panayotis was born and had a magical childhood growing up in a small seaside town in Cyprus. After two years as an army conscript (during which time the island suffered first a military coup and then an invasion), he traveled to Britain where he studied law at Oxford and qualified to practice at the Bar. Having then decided that he didn’t want to be a lawyer, he also graduated art school, and for many happy years he worked as a painter and sculptor, until a spell of artist’s block led to a very short course in creative writing…

His time now exclusively devoted to writing, The Dead of August was his first novel, a contemporary satire set in London, where he lives. His own experiences while working in the city as an artist, together with the colorful relationships of many of his friends, provided Panayotis with a wealth of material to draw on. Surprisingly all his friends are still talking to him, and none of them are planning to sue him.

Panayotis’ favorite pastime is going to the movies, and ever since his friend/therapist/barber recommended The Sopranos, he has also discovered good TV. He travels to Cyprus often, to visit family and be near the sea.

Book Description:

Sadie can perceive what others cannot. A rare and hazardous gift, it is one she would rather not possess, as its price is great suffering. There is a word used to describe her kind: Martyr.

Wandering the wastelands of a ruined Earth plagued by gangs and Cling–an affliction which shortens the human lifespan to a mere few decades–Sadie’s hope to find a slice of utopia fades.

When a reckless moment sets her on the run from a vicious warlord, her flight leads to a mysterious boy who seems to hold the answer to Sadie’s salvation. If she will use her gift to help his community, he vows to share the location of a tunnel deep beneath the ground–a tunnel revealed to Sadie in a fever dream as the key to defeating her pursuers.

But when Sadie enters the tunnel, what she discovers plunges the boy’s community into unimaginable peril. Fortunately, Sadie has a few tricks up her sleeve–and an old acquaintance with a notorious set of skills who just may agree to join the fray.
