From the bestselling author of All Is Not Forgotten comes a thriller about two missing sisters, a twisted family, and what happens when one girl comes back…

One night three years ago, the Tanner sisters disappeared: fifteen-year-old Cass and seventeen-year-old Emma. Three years later, Cass returns, without her sister Emma. Her story is one of kidnapping and betrayal, of a mysterious island where the two were held. But to forensic psychiatrist Dr. Abby Winter, something doesn’t add up. Looking deep within this dysfunctional family Dr. Winter uncovers a life where boundaries were violated and a narcissistic parent held sway. And where one sister’s return might just be the beginning of the crime.

Voodoo On The Bayou

A Cajun Magic Mystery #1

by Elle James

Genre: Paranormal / Romance / Mystery

Teaser from 26% in the eBook.

Peering over, she leveled the net and scooped the fish out of the water, holding it high. A triumphant smile graced her lips. “I did it!”

Her exuberance brought a smile to Craig’s face. “Very good. You caught a dead fish. Now, let’s move on to live frogs.”

I used to go night fishing for frogs. This brought back some fun memories.

This books is sexy, charming and fun.

~~~~~

Synopsis

“By day a frog, by night a man, ‘til de next full moon…”

At first, lawyer and ladies’ man Craig Thibodeaux thought Madame LeBieu’s chant was a strange bayou joke. But the voodoo worked and Craig is spending his days as…well, a small green frog. Now he has only two weeks to find love, or his new froggy transformation becomes permanent.

When she receives the anonymous toxic water sample from Bayou Miste, research scientist Elaine Smith decides a trip to the bayou is the perfect excuse to escape the lab, and forget about her cheating ex-fiance. Then she accidentally stumbles upon Craig’s oh-so-fine naked form, and her science-nerd brain is overrun with naughty thoughts about her new gorgeous night-time bayou guide.

But there’s more to Bayou Miste than voodoo curses and sexy late-night trysts. Dark secrets threaten the delicate ecosystem, and there are those who would do anything to keep those secrets hidden. Even murder…

My Monday Minis #47 ~ A Proper Hellhound

Posted: July 30, 2018 in Monday's Minis, Paranormal or fantasy, reviews, urban fantasy
Tags: My Monday Minis, paranormal, review, urban fantasy

Welcome to my Monday Minis where I share shorter reviews of books I’ve read.

Today I’ve got a fun one about a hound from Hell and his not so competent human.

~~~~~

A Proper Hellhound

A Montague & Strong Detective Story

by Orlando A. Sanchez

Genre: Urban Fantasy / Paranormal

My Review

Doesn’t everyone want their own hellhound? Maybe not one that gets as big as a bus, eh?

Simon takes it all in stride. But his partner insists they get control of Peaches, a hellhound gifted to Simon by Hades himself. It wouldn’t do to have a super sized hellhound with laser beam eyes rampaging through the city.

So Simon and Peaches are sent to obedience school, the instructor being Death, or Ezra as she prefers to be called. They must pass the test or things could go really bad. Simon, a mere human thrown into a world of the paranormal, thinks its a nuisance but Peaches is game.

I came into this not knowing what to expect. From the synopsis, I had a good feeling it would be fun. It was tons of fun. Simon is still new to the paranormal world and fumbles, a lot. He also tends to run off at the mouth, trying everyone’s patience. But Peaches. Peaches is game for anything as long as there is food and plenty of it.

The action doesn’t take long to get going. The moment they enter the training area things go from dicey to a fight to the death. As Simon struggles to use anything available, Peaches actually has to step in to train his human. It was a wild ride from there on and kept me glued to the pages.

Did I enjoy this dip into Orlando’s Montague & Strong paranormal urban fantasy series? Yep. Will I read more? You betcha! Would I recommend it? An enthusiastic yes!

A fun quote:

“He may be a hellhound capable of mind-numbing destruction, but he was my hellhound capable of mind-numbing destruction.”

~~~~~

Synopsis

When your hellhound needs training, you hire the best trainer for the job…Death.

While in London, Peaches, Simon’s faithful hellhound manages to grow to the size of a small bus, shocking Monty & Simon with his new transformation. Realizing the danger of a Peaches XL, the Montague & Strong Detective Agency take steps to control these growth spurts. They acquire a special collar to regulate the size shifts, but it’s not working. The situation is growing out of control…literally.

Equipped with teleportation, eye-beams, impervious skin, and an insatiable appetite for sausage the time has come to train Peaches. There’s only one problem—no one wants to train a hellhound. Running out of options, Simon finally discovers someone willing to take on the task…Ezra the personification of Death and trainer of Cerberus, Peaches’ father.

Now with Death as his trainer, Peaches and Simon must undergo extensive hellhound obedience training. If they fail, they’ll discover that there is a fate worse than Death. Will Peaches learn to control his abilities? Will he outgrow the situation and destroy the training facility? Will he ever get enough sausage?

Join Simon as he learns that a dog may be man’s best friend, but a hellhound’s love can dwarf any obstacle.

What’s New On My Bookshelf #271 and The Sunday Post

This is my own version of a weekly book haul and all things new on fuonlyknew.

I’m also linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Kimberly @Caffeinated Book Reviewer.

Some chit chat.

I believe trouble comes in threes. This week I came home, went to watch a movie and my DVD player wouldn’t turn on. I went out to check the filter in my pool pump and it was broken. A storm blew through and lightning fried my cable modem, so no internet. Sheesh! I’m happy to report that I ordered a new DVD player and it’s already arrived and hooked up. The company is sending a new filter pump for the pool at no charge as I just purchased it in March. And I drove to the cable office and got a new modem so all is humky dory. I’m afraid to blink as who knows what might happen next. I’m also a form believer is good things come in threes too so crossing my fingers!

I thought I’d share some nature in all it’s wonder.

It was raining and the sun was shining. Look closely and you can see the rain pouring down from the roof.

20180725_185730

I tried to get a rainbow pic but never saw one. Funny thing. It was raining in the front yard but not in the back.

And can you name this creature? It’s perched on a blade of grass right by the flower.

It was in the pool and I saved it.

Have a fabulous Sunday and brand new week!

Saturday Screams #54 ~ Take The Haunted Forest Tour ~ Don’t worry. It’s perfectly safe.

Posted: July 28, 2018 in horror, reviews
Tags: Horror, review, Saturday Screams

Welcome to my Saturday Screams where I share books that, well, make you scream!

Today I’m inviting, no, daring you to take a tour of a haunted forest. Beware, there be monsters. So many monsters!

~~~~~

The Haunted Forest Tour

by James A. Moore & Jeff Strand

Genre: Horror

My Review

I had to catch my breath after reading this one.

Want some thrills? Take a tour of the haunted forest. It’s perfectly safe. Are the monsters real? You’ll soon find out.

The ride begins. Of course, one of the trams breaks down. I couldn’t wait to keep reading and my face grew a maniacal grin because I knew this was where the monsters would come creeping in. I swear, I will never go into the woods again without thinking of this book. It’s creepy, then it’s suspenseful, then it’s creepier, then more suspenseful, and so on. It doesn’t slow down but ramps up and up.

Every kind of creeping, crawling, flying thing you can imagine and then some are prowling the forest. Some want to bash you. Some want to eat you or drain your blood. Some just want to rip you to pieces. All of them want you dead. The party has begun and the lookie loos are the favors.

This was fodder for my horror appetite. I wanted crazy bloody mayhem and I got it. Did I love this book? Yes. Would I recommend it? Most definitely.

~~~~~

Synopsis

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Haunted Forest Tour! Sit back and enjoy a smooth ride in air-conditioned comfort as your heavily armored tram takes you through nature’s most astonishing creation. The forest is packed to capacity with dangerous and terrifying creatures of all shapes, sizes, and hunger levels, and you’ll get to observe these wonders in complete safety. Howl with a werewolf! Gaze into the glowing eyes of a giant spider! Look right through a spooky ghost! See horrific monsters you couldn’t even imagine, only inches away from you! Things with fangs, things with claws, things with dripping red jaws-you’ll see them all! Not thrilling enough? Well, it’s Halloween, and so we’re offering a very special tour through the Haunted Forest. The new route goes deeper into the woods than any civilians have ventured before, and you’re guaranteed to get a good scare! Rest assured that every possible security precaution has been taken. The Haunted Forest Tour has a 100% safety record, and technical difficulties are unheard of. You will be in no danger whatsoever. We promise. Bram Stoker Award-nominated authors James A. Moore and Jeff Strand have teamed up to take you on an action-packed, monster-laden adventure that will make you laugh, scream, and think twice before going near ghastly oversized beasts that want to devour you. “[An] absolute gem of a read…What comes next is over two hundred pages of non stop, in your face, gore drenched action…You will be exhausted by the time you reach the satisfying last page…Think Jurassic Park with bloodthirsty demons on an adrenaline rush and you have The Haunted Forest Tour.” – GoreZone magazine “James A. Moore and Jeff Strand are a literary dream team. Devout readers of the genre are in for a real treat as these two horror heavyweights combine forces and battle their characters to the bloody death…Remember how it felt to inventory and consume your candy on Halloween night? That’s the atmosphere in the forest. You feel like a glutton, like you couldn’t possibly stomach one more gooey demise, but you turn the page and unwrap another nightmare anyway.” – Horror-Web “Moore and Strand heap scares upon plot twists in one of the freshest and most entertaining novels in recent years. The authors offer a frightening and high-octane tale, presented as an apocalyptic disaster movie.” – Horror World

Reading Is My SuperPower – Review

“If you love a mix of historical and contemporary, this is the perfect collection for you. Each story gives readers a taste of each individual author’s style and voice, so it’s also a great way to ‘meet’ some authors you’ve perhaps never read before. The stories are all unique and sweet, with tender romance, humor, and lots of heart. A great weekend read!”

Uplifting Reads – Review

“So these five stories, all woven together by this mystical locket, all have their own charm (pun somewhat intended). I think romance readers will find that at least one of these couples and stories appeals to them. Another great summer day read.”

Cafinated Reads – Review

“This was a good, quick read. I enjoy reading anthologies and this is one of the best collections of romances I’ve read in quite some time. These authors truly knew what to bring their fans and gave them a beautiful book filled with hope, longing and inspiration.”

Remembrancy – Review

“Each author in Legacy of the Heart lends her voice and style to the overall collection that has a strong cohesion with the introduction of the locket. A definite must-read from lovers of novellas, lovers of romance, or lovers of a great story collection.”

Christian Bookshelf Reviews – Review

“Legacy of the Heart was a wonderful novella collection. I enjoyed all five of the stories and liked how some were historical and others were contemporary. The way the locket played a part in each novella was interesting and I really enjoyed how it connected them.”

Locks, Hooks and Books – Review

“I enjoyed all five of these stories. I did find them predictable but I did not care. Such a good, sweet, clean, and romantic book. I give Legacy of the Heart 4 1/2 stars. It is most definitely worth a read.”

Heidi Reads… – Review

“I enjoyed the stories in this collection and seeing the locket pass from one character to another. The first two stories are historical, and the last three are contemporary.”

Splashes of Joy – Review

“Legacy of the Heart is a collection of 5 really wonderful romance stories. For me, reading these stories in the order that’s in the book was better for me to understand and get the full stories. . . . What interest and fun it was to see this locket play out in each other the stories, in its own way. I highly recommend this book for those looking for a good clean romance collection.”

Among the Reads – Review

“I enjoy novella collections that have a common thread woven through them like this. The authors did a great job with the continuity of the theme. I was impressed by the way the characters who were introduced in one story were so naturally and seamlessly carried into the next as the main character.”

Brittany McEuen – Review

“Legacy of the Heart was such an enjoyable novella collection! . . . I liked the continuity that the locket brought to the collection, yet, I also appreciated that the novellas were each unique in the way the locket played into the plot. . .

This is definitely a good collection to grab hold of for fans of sweet and inspirational romance!”

Unleashed ~ Road Rage: The Blog ~ Tour and Giveaway

Unleashed

Road Rage: The Blog Book 1

by Two Sharpe

Genre: Murder Thriller

On October 30th, a man calling himself Simon started a blog, Road Rage.
He claimed that he was going to kill several people that offended him
with their belligerent driving style. After several claimed murders,
the FBI assigned Special Agent Monique “Nikki” Sebastian, to the
case to monitor the blog and see if she could start a dialog with the
suspected serial killer, to possibly verify his claims. Very quickly,
Nikki realized that not only was Simon doing exactly what he claimed,
she found that he is not your run of the mill serial killer. Simon
seems to function with some sort of moral code and the victims he
chooses may very well be deserving of the attention given. Nikki also
found that she was not sure who was hunting whom, as the
communication between her and Simon became very personal.

As you get to know Simon and the Rage that he carries with him, you will
find there is a lot more to this man than some random serial killer.
He is a man with very unique “problem solving” skills and he
really enjoys his work and the mission he has taken on to help rid
the world of some really unnecessary… bad drivers…

“Unleashed”
is the first in the Road Rage the Blog series of novels. The books
contain adult language and graphic violence. Enter at your own risk
because you just might agree with Simon’s mission.

Goodreads * Amazon

Two Sharpe Publishing was created as a company to publish some books that
my daughter and I wrote together. This was not something Amanda
nor I had ever even dreamed of, but then life has a way of sending
you down the path that it wants… regardless of where you were
planning on going.

On September 16, 2015, Amanda’s husband Kevin was on his way home from
work late one night and was waiting for traffic to clear in the left
turn lane about a mile from their home. A drunk driver coming
from behind Kevin, at what was estimated 75 mph in a 45 mph zone,
veered out of the travel lanes and struck Kevin in the rear of his
Dodge Neon with a full-size SUV. Kevin was killed instantly in
the crash.

Several months after Kevin’s death, Amanda wrote an autobiography of her
life with Kevin called Stolen and
she asked me if I would help edit the book. Once we put the
finishing touches on Stolen, we decided we would cowrite a fictional
series called The Charly Stevens series.

People deal with the loss of a loved one in many different ways. After
starting the Charly Stevens Series, we came up with another fictional
series called Road Rage The Blog. It is a real time blog written by
Simon, a man who has a great deal of rage, especially when he gets in
a car.

Once we had an idea for the above projects, we needed a Social Engineer to
handle publishing, website development, cover art, and social media
for our company. We were lucky enough to convince Kris Spoon to
join our team. Kris has a wide range of experience in the world
of publishing and social media and has used those unique skills to
create a platform for not only the works we have created to date, but
for those to come. We hope in the future to be able to help
other authors bring their works to life through our company.

Thank you for reading about Two Sharpe Publishing!

Change is coming ……. Woman Ex ~ Tour and Giveaway

Posted: July 26, 2018 in giveaways, Science Fiction, thriller
Tags: giveaway, Science Fiction, thriller

Woman Ex

by Real Laplaine

Genre: SciFi Thriller

The world in the very near future undergoes a radical shift in power –
changes forced upon it by two global catastrophic events. Wars
suddenly fade to nothing. Religious conflicts disappear. Crime is all
but gone. Nuclear weapons are banned and peace reigns across the
globe. The proverbial “new-age of man” has come, but not
without a price. Woman EX is a thrilling ride into the near future,
one where women must take over in a world where men have become an
endangered species and are expendable. But, all is not well in the
new utopia. Power, as always, corrupts some entrusted with it, and
the vision of a society without men drives Lady V, the President of
New America, a woman haunted and driven by her own demons, to do the
unthinkable. She is about to introduce Woman EX – something that will
change the human race forever.

“An utterly captivating and quickly-paced thriller…”

Author, Victoria Ichizli-Bartels

“Here is another fascinating book from an author I came to enjoy so
much.”

Killer Reputation

(Adina Donati, Accidental Sleuth)

by Cassidy Salem

Killer Reputation (Adina Donati, Accidental Sleuth)
Cozy Mystery
3rd in Series
Self Published (June 15, 2018)
Paperback: 182 pages
ISBN-10: 1718753357
ISBN-13: 978-1718753358
Digital ASIN: B07DKB8WCH

My Review

A violent attack. The victim recovers only to be found strangled several days later. Adina can’t let it go. The safety of people she cares about hangs in the balance. The assailant struck so close to home.

This was a fun, quick read. Finished it in a couple hours. There’s a bit of a mystery in a mystery as the two attacks could be the same or two different assailants. I quickly grew to bond with several of the characters. Adina and her policeman boyfriend, Jonathan, were adorable. And retired policeman and neighbor Bart Crockett is someone I’d like to have living in my neighborhood. I spid a little romance brewing between Bart and Joan, owner of the Cutie Pie dog rescue center. His recent adoption of one of her puppies doesn’t appear to be the only reason she comes to visit.

While I haven’t read the previous books in the series. I had no trouble following along and enjoying the characters. And being a huge fan of cozies, I’m sure I’ll be going back to the beginning to see how the series began.

~~~~~

Synopsis

Adina can’t resist snooping when someone she knows turns up dead. Again.

When a colleague at a prestigious think tank meets a violent death, Adina’s not convinced any of the obvious suspects disliked him enough to want him dead. Can the young research assistant, a quirky neighbor, and a lovable rescue pup help the police put together the pieces of the puzzle?
