The Tarnished Son

by Elizabeth McKenna

But they do.

In THE TARNISHED SON, a tourist’s death, an alluring young teacher, a father’s carnal desires, and a stepdaughter’s vendetta ultimately destroy a village dynasty.

Meet the family:

William Sr., the grandfather who rules the family and the village with an iron fist
Hank, the father who lets temptations lead him on a path of self-destruction
Liam, the shining son who gets away with everything
Rose, the stepdaughter who has had enough and pushes the whole house down

Leslie Wolfe The Hospital Book Tour and Giveaway

 

I should feel safe here. I don’t.

The Hospital

by Leslie Wolfe

Genre: Psychological Thriller 

I should feel safe here. I don’t.

I thought I had it all. The loving husband I married on a beach, sand between my toes. The career I fought for. The beautiful home tucked away between pines and mountains.

But my perfect life crumbled when my husband betrayed me. And then it started. Everywhere I went, someone was following me… But no one believed me. Were they right? Was I losing my mind?

Then, one day, I wake up with a searing pain in my head, and only the sound of sirens and distant conversations to pierce my confusion.

I’ve been attacked. I’m in the hospital.

It should be reassuring. But all I can think is: I’m trapped.

I must escape. But I know I can’t trust anyone, and I’ll do whatever it takes to save myself.

After years of writing romance under the pen name Blake Allwood, I decided to pursue my other genre passion, fantasy and science fiction. Adam J. Ridley is the reality of that pursuit.

My husband of 28 years and I have had an adventurous life. We’ve had many businesses, we’ve raised over twelve foster children, two of which we adopted, and had at least two professional careers.

To say we are people who seek experiences is an understatement.

As I’ve grown older, my passions seem to be better reflected in my imagination. Fantasy, urban fantasy, and science fiction all allow me to escape into worlds that transcend life. I’ve always been a major lover of fantasy writing and started reading it at a rather young age.

My husband and I travel full-time now in our RV (caravan for those not in the United States.) We’ve been doing this since 2017 and y’all, we love it.

Please join me on Facebook, and other social media sites. I work hard to be easily accessible to my readers, cause you all are the reason for all the lovely work!

Regina Welling Rue the Slay Book Tour and Giveaway

 

Meet Rue Channing. She's just the witch to finish what her ancestors started. 

Rue the Slay

Laurel Haven Witches Book 1

by ReGina Welling

Genre: Paranormal Women’s Fiction 

 Three hundred years ago, four witches went into the forest to cast a spell of protection against the evil creeping into their town but they were too late.

Today, Rue Channing never sees it coming, and she should because seeing is her special power. Still, who would have expected to be kidnapped and hauled off to a small coastal town in Maine?

But that is exactly what happened. Now, Rue, a lover of order and strict routines, is dragged out of her comfort zone and into a new life in the small, coastal town of Laurel Haven.

Things could not be worse, she thinks, until she meets the man next door and decides they could. Ry McFadden is the most infuriating man on the planet. He’s a study in contrasts; grumpy yet generous, intensely private, but somehow open. Rue can’t think what to do with him, except she can, and that just makes things worse.

The problem is, Ry McFadden just might be part of Rue’s destiny as she learns she’s been brought to Laurel Haven to finish what her ancestors started.

ReGina Welling prefers not to talk about herself in the third person so...

I live in Maine with my husband, a silly flufferpup named Dash, and a crazy cat named Cricket. I write full time and also create mixed media artwork when I get the chance.

When I was three, my mom brought home a new book and when she went to read it to me, I read it to her instead. That was when she realized I'd learned to read. Since then I couldn't even estimate the number of books I've read. It's a lot!

I love talking to other readers so please visit me in any one of these various places and don't forget to let me know you stopped by!

Yosemite Ranch Book 1

Genre: Small Town Contemporary Romance

Victoria:

I came to Yosemite Ranch to close a land deal and make partner.
Instead, I find temptation.

His name is Cal MacLaine. A smoking-hot ex-Navy SEAL and billionaire with breathtaking violet eyes. With a side of first-born-son: overprotective, suspicious, honorable to a fault. He thinks it’s his mission to protect his family’s ranch.

And keep me from reaching my objectives.

Will I close this deal? Will he send me packing? Or will we both find what we've always wanted in the most impossible of places…in one another’s arms?

Cal:

This redhead in her ridiculous stiletto heels has no business here.

Sure, she’s the most stunning thing I’ve ever seen. Sure, there’s an undeniable attraction between us. But she’s set her sights on a chunk of our family ranch.

I don’t trust her.

She says she’s in mergers and acquisitions. Sorry, gorgeous—I won’t be buying what you’re selling. So how has she succeeded where every other woman has failed? How is she knocking down the impenetrable wall I’ve built around my world—and my heart? I can’t fall in love with Victoria Backlund.

It’s impossible.

Impossible Love is a small town, enemies to lovers, billionaire, military contemporary romance and the first book in the Yosemite Ranch series. Yosemite Ranch...Every woman deserves an alpha hero.

Love Walks In

Yosemite Ranch Book 2  

Finn:

When my wife died in childbirth, I knew my guilt and grief would never heal.

I try to focus on the life that’s right in front of me. Jasmine, the eight-year-old daughter I worry I’m failing. The successful tech company I started with my brothers. And training horses at my family’s Yosemite Ranch.

Until the day Emma Clark walks in…

Radiating beauty and kindness despite her own pain. A miracle I never saw coming, and a temptation I can’t fight. Can I trust the unbreakable bond she forms with Jasmine? Can I forgive myself enough to welcome love again? And if I go looking into her past, will I find more than any of us bargained for?

Emma:

I know I’m damaged.

Foster care, loneliness, and minimum-wage work will do that to a girl. But I’m nobody’s victim, no matter what’s in my past. What I am is a realist, and I’m sure love isn’t in the cards for me.

Until Finn MacLaine’s gaze meets my own…

The insanely handsome former Navy SEAL is my new boss. And strictly off limits. But the attraction is too intense to ignore. The connection is too strong to break.

Is love, family, and true belonging suddenly within my grasp? Or am I just a housekeeper longing for the impossible?

Love Walks In is a small town, single dad, billionaire, military contemporary romance and the second book in the Yosemite Ranch series. Yosemite Ranch...Every woman deserves an alpha hero.

The Mutiny of the American Foreign Legion

Rebels of the American Hemisphere Book 1

by Neal Alexander

Genre: Thriller  

 Hugo Ayala has burned his bridges with the Colombian military by denouncing murders committed by his former officers. After surviving a bloody assignment in Yemen with an American security company, he completes U.S. Army basic training. But he's blocked from becoming a green card soldier by new anti-immigration laws. He stays on as an illegal, and joins the American Foreign Legion, an immigration rights group whose members have fought for the USA.

Meanwhile, Immigration and Customs Enforcement is detaining and deporting thousands of people a day, without due process. But now the communities being targeted include Hugo and others who know how to fight back. The leader of the AFL has his own political backers and doubtful motives. As each side ratchets up the violence, American political unity starts to crack.

This gripping thriller which draws on current events and little-known facts:

- Many non-citizens serve in the US armed forces and as employees of American security contractors. For example, the second US Marine killed in action in the Iraq War was Guatemalan. A recent MIT study of these green card soldiers is subtitled “Between Model Immigrant and Security Threat”.

- Border Patrol agents “have gone from having one of the most obscure jobs in law enforcement to one of the most hated,” according to the New York Times. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deport people without due process, including US Citizens.

- A recent Chicago Tribune op-ed describes how current how the current “struggles over immigration echo the conflict over slavery”. Confrontations in Texas over immigration have been described as “civil war” in the New York Times.
