In the Beginning by Cindy C Bennett: Before coming to Earth Alashon and Vindar vow
to find one another. The vow is not made lightly: if they fail, they will spend
their eternity’s alone. Drake has lived a hard life. In and out of
trouble with the law, sentenced to juvenile corrections and finally released to
the custody of his parole officer, the strange, surfer-dude Tom, Drake is
forced to move to the tiny beach town of Seaside. There, he meets Megan, Tom’s
off-limits daughter. Though he tries to avoid her, it seems she turns up
constantly in his life. It isn’t long before he finds himself looking forward
to visits from the ultra-optimistic Megan. But does she really care for Drake,
or is he just another charity case? And why does she seem so very familiar to
him?
Pete & Tink by Sherry Gammon: Pete Pancerella loves two things in life: Video games and Spongy Cremes. He’s happy, content, and he’s also a geek. All that is about to change when his mother
wishes upon a star and Tink answers the call. But will it take more
than a five-and-a-half inch faery to whip this manga-loving goofball
into shape?
Temptation by Jamie Canosa: Melody isn’t thrilled about moving away from everything and
everyone she knows thanks to her mother’s demanding job, but maybe living in
Hotsville USA isn’t such a bad thing. First there’s the drop dead gorgeous boy
next door, Lucas, who also happens to have a chip on his shoulder a mile wide.
Then there’s Jason, the helpful, funny boy from town. When both sexy studs take an interest in her, Melody is left
trying to navigate Lucas’ ever shifting moods and Jason’s offbeat attitude
towards all things questionable. But, things aren’t always as they seem. In the
end, will she make the right decision? And will her choice effect more than
just her heart?
Haven by Ranee S Clark: Sera, like hundreds
of victims of the Polio-Variant IV virus, has been transferred to Haven Base,
where the Elysians, a race of humans from a distant planet, labor to save
Earth’s population. The only problem is that Sera’s boyfriend Dex thinks she’s
dead and is making choices that will leave him ineligible for transfer if he
contracts the virus. In an effort to save his soul, Sera defies the strict
rules of her rescuers and takes over the consciousness of Elspeth, a young
woman dying of Polio-Variant IV and scheduled for immediate extraction. Sera is
allowed one week to work a change in Dex’s heart. Except Dex Porter has
no intention of changing anything. When Sera “died,” so did his belief in the
possibility of them being together again. He blocks every effort Sera—in
Elspeth’s body—makes to change his path. When Elspeth’s body begins to
deteriorate quicker than before, Sera and the Elysians are forced to make a
choice about the greater good: Elspeth’s body or Dex’s soul.
Ye Old Summertime of Love by Calvin Kern: A
young knight, Sir Atticus, finds himself completely in love with a
girl, Lyrica, who works for King on his secret council, which is made
up of unique individuals with specific talents. But there's something
particularly special about Lyrica.
Just as Atticus and Lyrica are getting to know one
another, disaster strikes the kingdom, sending them fleeing for their lives.
I Was Here - Before You Came by Camelia Miron Skiba: Legend has it … centuries after Spartacus another hero is
born—Ilias, the bastard son of King Decebalus. Thirsty for revenge and eager to
unshackle the Roman oppression, Ilias' obsession to fulfill his oath has no
bounds, even if that means kidnapping Nerva, the beloved daughter of Emperor
Traianus. What he doesn't know is his own heart threatens to betray
his conscience. What will prevail: his mind or his heart?
Seeds of Loveby J.C. Willibat: Blanca Islas is
city-girl from Chicago who’s tired of healthcare politics and men who refuse to
look her in the eye. Sure there is more to life than work and men, she finds a
job working as a Nurse Practitioner in central Idaho, thinking the small town
of Crouch is just the sanctuary she needs. What Blanca doesn’t
factor in, however, is the ramifications of being the only health care provider
in the heart of redneck country. It takes endless hours of work to care for an entire
community, and violence and natural disasters put her independence as a
doctoral level nurse practitioner to the test. Forest Longbow, a sexy and mysterious neighbor, tests
Blanca’s resolve to stay clear of men and focus on her career. An Apache smoke-jumper, who fights forest
fires through the summer, Forest is nothing like the men Blanca left behind in
Chicago. His strange but effective ways of speaking to Blanca’s soul will leave
her breathless and hoping for an early Fall.a Rafflecopter giveaway
