Moving a Little Heart 
Little Hearts Book 1
by Breanna Hayse
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Baylor Parish needs a fresh start. After a disastrous,
loveless marriage and an emotionally neglected childhood, she packs her things
and moves to a new house out in the desert to get away from it all and enjoy
her freedom.
Unfortunately, the occupants of the house next door have other ideas.
As soon as Hayden Paterson spots her moving in, he takes over. Next, she meets
his stepbrother Jake, a cop who takes her safety far more seriously than Baylor
does herself. The last thing Baylor wants is to get into another relationship,
but the Paterson brothers rescue people for a living, and from the moment they
clap eyes on her, they label the 23-year-old a ‘damsel in distress.’ Not only
do they do everything in their power to protect, nurture and guide her, but
they also enlist the help of their longtime friends and roommates; Terry and
Matt.
Hayden and Jake come together to woo her to become a part of their unique
family. To them, she is an adult little girl in need of the love, caring,
nurturing – and yes, discipline – that only two “Daddies” can provide. To the
independent Baylor, the assumption that she is in dire need of “Daddycare”
seems not only strange, but completely opposed to the self-sufficiency she
thought she wanted.
As well as her new Daddy Hayden and Daddy Jake, Baylor also finds herself in
the care of “Uncle” Terry, a retired medic. He’s the burly, protective “house
mom” and “doctor”, who is not only thrilled to have a little girl to care for,
but likes to take control of Baylor’s health in ways that she preferred he did
not. Then there is Matt, the resident “hippie”, who quickly becomes Baylor’s
adoring “big brother” and helps her devise ways to get into mischief… which
frequently lands her over the lap of one of her new daddies.
Basking in the loving embrace of these four men, Baylor’s inner child emerges,
and under their sometimes stern, but always loving, care, she not only
discovers her ability to play and laugh, she also begins to trust and feel
loved. She also learns that a bottom bared for punishment can experience
intense pleasure when used in “special” ways by one – or both – of her two men.
Despite her happiness, Baylor continues to struggle with allowing herself to
fully submit. Is this lifestyle, the one of a Little girl with two Daddies, an
Uncle and a Big Brother, right for her? Will she be able to leave behind her
loveless, uncaring past and allow her heart to be moved to permanently reside
within the arms and home of these very special men?
This #1 Best Seller is geared towards those readers who enjoy realistic
age-play/BDSM, menage and a loving, healthy family life of a house full of
alpha males. If discipline/sensual spanking, anal, and medical play aren’t your
‘cup of tea,’ then you haven’t read a book like this!

Loving a Little
Heart 
Little Hearts Book 2
She’s got two gorgeous men, and a serious craving for
chocolate…
In this, the sequel to Breanna Hayse’s best-selling ‘Moving A Little Heart’,
Baylor’s back—with double the trouble. Feisty but vulnerable Baylor Parish is
pregnant with twins, which means her two daddies; stepbrothers Hayden and Jake;
her Uncle Terry, and her big brother Matt are even more loving and protective
of their girl than usual.
About to realize their lifelong dreams of fatherhood, Jake and Hayden decide to
make their family official before the babies are born, and soon a double
wedding is on the horizon for the Paterson household. A unique, polyamorous
dynamic, however, calls for a very unique wedding—something Baylor is only too
glad to embrace. After all, she was married before, and that traditional
ceremony ended up having disastrous consequences.
Pregnancy is a time for growth in more ways than one, and Baylor is worried
that her dynamics with Hayden and Jake will change now that they’re going to
become parents. Can she be a mother and still explore her Little side with her
two daddies? How will her changing body and high risk pregnancy affect their
BDSM routine? And what will happen when a blast from her terrible past turns up
on her doorstep?
Baylor discovers that two partners, two babies, an Uncle and a big brother
simply result in twice as much everything; double the fun, double the worry,
double the time over a strong lap, and twice as much love…
This story contains explicit content including spanking of adult women, ménage,
and ageplay. If you enjoy this material, then grab a box of chocolate and let’s
have some fun!

BDSM/AP lifestyler Breanna Hayse strives to give her readers
truth and reality of the BDSM/Age-Play/Total Power and Erotic Exchange
lifestyle.

Who am I?

I’m a native Californian gone ‘wild’, and had the
opportunity to travel the globe and discover the world through the eyes of both
a Marine Intelligence specialist and a BDSM lifestyler. I left the service to
go into hospice nursing and grief counseling, eventually working as a marriage
and family therapist for those involved in alternative lifestyle development.
This experience has allowed me to gain unique inspiration for my books and
offer realistic plots and relatable characters.
In 2004, my husband, John, and I joined forces to work with both submissives
and dominants- teaching, training, listening and loving. Our goal was to take
the mystery and fear out of the lifestyle and mentor people in safe, consensual
and healthy relationships.
My first book, The Game Plan, was published in 2012 and opened the door to the
now-booming world of Age-Play literature. Since that time, I’ve devoted my
‘spare’ time to writing, researching, community involvement, and private and
group pro bono counseling in deviant behavior, alternative lifestyle, and
addiction recovery.
I was formally ‘dungeon trained’ as a Domme before discovering my submissive
side when I joined the service. My scenarios are pulled primarily from either
personal experience or observation, including spending time in BDSM clubs as
the safety/medical officer. My multi-faceted background allows me to glean from
many avenues and give a unique and intelligent literary experience through
elements of fantasy and fiction. I also discuss the questions and psychology of
the lifestyle in a manner that is fun and informative, and based on ‘the real
deal.’
I live with my husband, musician, and fellow-author, John Hayse, and two border
collies in southern California. We practice a 24/7 D&S relationship with
speckles of AP (and many trips to Build-A-Bear), and happily spend every moment
together that we can. My hobbies include my puppies, hiding my vanilla
salt-water taffy where John can’t find it, exotic art, collecting inspirational
trinkets, and developing my own paddle line. You can also see me as a featured
author/instructor in professional conference settings and as a Sexpert for
kinkyliterature.com.

 Rolling In The Deep

Rolling In The Deep #0.5

by Mira Grant

Genre:  Horror

My Review

I’ve read several stories where I knew how it ended before it began. It really worked with this book.

 Imagine Network thought it would be a real money maker to launch an expedition to the Marianna Trench to prove the myth about mermaids was true. When the Atargatis was later found adrift, it’s decks splattered with blood and all people on board gone, they used some found footage to discover what happened on the fateful voyage.

That wicked cover promised some evil mermaids. I sure got those. They might not have made their appearance til well into the story, but everything I read before that was just as entertaining. Mira fleshed out her characters just enough for me to connect with them and her scientific approach to what the creatures were was fascinating and surprising. And when she finally brought those mermaids to the surface, it was a very unpleasant meeting.

It’s been said that the bottom of the ocean is the last unexplored place on our planet. Who knows what dwells in the deep. I think that’s part of why I enjoyed this book as much as I did. The idea of mermaids as a myth or genuine. Who knows. Friend or foe. Who knows. And what if they are real? What happens then?

I watched the movie Jaws when it first came out. Many years later I moved to a coastal town. The first time I stepped in the ocean, I spotted a wave curling towards shore and all I could think was is there a shark in there. I never truly felt comfortable swimming in the sea because of that movie. Now I have something else to make me hesitate to enter the water. I wouldn’t want to have a close encounter with Mira’s mermaids.

Rolling In The Deep is a novella sized story with a super sized bite. I had a blast reading it and immediately went on line and grabbed the follow up book, Into The Drowning Deep.

If you love evil mermaids, this is one you should dive into. It was all kinds of creepy fun for me.

Synopsis

When the Imagine Network commissioned a documentary on mermaids, to be filmed from the cruise ship Atargatis, they expected what they had always received before: an assortment of eyewitness reports that proved nothing, some footage that proved even less, and the kind of ratings that only came from peddling imaginary creatures to the masses.

They didn’t expect actual mermaids.  They certainly didn’t expect those mermaids to have teeth.

This is the story of the Atargatis, lost at sea with all hands.  Some have called it a hoax; others have called it a maritime tragedy.  Whatever the truth may be, it will only be found below the bathypelagic zone in the Mariana Trench…and the depths are very good at keeping secrets

Strange Blood: 71 Essays on Offbeat and Underrated Vampire Movies by Vanessa Morgan (ebook)

 

This is an overview of the most offbeat and underrated vampire movies spanning nine decades and 23 countries.

 

Strange Blood encompasses well-known hits as well as obscurities that differ from your standard fang fare by turning genre conventions on their head. Here, vampires come in the form of cars, pets, aliens, mechanical objects, gorillas, or floating heads. And when they do look like a demonic monster or an aristocratic Count or Countess, they break the mold in terms of imagery, style, or setting. Leading horror writers, filmmakers, actors, distributors, academics, and programmers present their favorite vampire films through in-depth essays, providing background information, analysis, and trivia regarding the various films. Some of these stories are hilarious, some are terrifying, some are touching, and some are just plain weird. Not all of these movies line up with the critical consensus, yet they have one thing in common: they are unlike anything you’ve ever seen in the world of vampires. Just when you thought that the children of the night had become a tired trope, it turns out they have quite a diverse inventory after all.

Wholesale Theft and the Least of One’s Problems by Chris Hewson (ebook)

Empire of the Future: While on holiday to Luxembourg, Edith witnesses the world change into a bizarre hybrid of past and future technology. If she wants any chance of getting back home, she’ll have to stop a power-mad ruler before the changes are permanent.

Undead Teenagers of the Lost Island: On an uncharted island, mysterious and dastardly experiments threaten a group of visiting teenagers. Can Edith rescue them in time from the clutches of a villainous mad scientist?

Corporate Wolf by Stuart R. West (ebook)

 

It was supposed to be a corporate retreat and a series of morale-boosting exercises. It was a weekend Shawn Biltmore nearly didn’t survive.

There was something else playing in the woods that night, something other than a bunch of corporate drones with paintball guns.

And it had chosen Shawn as its new chew toy.

…rip ’em to shreds.

The local authorities chalked it up to a bear attack.

So did the doctors.

Shawn knew the truth, however, as much as he wanted to deny it.

But when one of his coworkers is viciously killed, Shawn must face the truth…

He’s a killer who needs to be put down.

Or is he?

Bill the Vampire by Rick Gualtieri (ebook)

 

There are reasons we fear the night. He’s NOT one of them.

 

Bill Ryder was a dateless geek, but then he met a girl to die for. So he did. Sadly, that was just the beginning of his troubles. He awoke as a vampire but, fangs or not, he was still at the bottom of the food chain.

Now he finds himself surrounded by creatures stronger, deadlier, and a hell of a lot cooler than he is … and they all want to kick his ass.

Bill isn’t exactly average, though. A vamp-like him hasn’t been seen in centuries. He’s got a few tricks up his sleeve, unlikely allies, and an attitude that makes him too damned obnoxious to quit.

Join him in this hilarious tale of bloodthirsty monsters and the unlikely hero who’s not afraid to flip them all off, even if it gets him killed – again.

Suckers by Anne Billson (ebook)

And some of us saw it in our nightmares…

Anne Billson’s debut novel, described by Christopher Fowler in Time Out as ‘dark, sharp, chic and very funny’, is set at the end of the ‘greed is good’ era, and features a gothic love triangle between a man, a woman and the 300-year-old vampire they chopped into pieces a decade earlier.

But now she’s back, and this time she’s building a bloodsucking empire…

On his way, he will meet a little girl who was genetically conceived by the government to be exclusively fed with blood. A magic encounter, so to speak! He will use her as his ultimate weapon.

Peripheral Visions: The Complete Ghost Stories 1988-2015 by Robert Hood (ebook)

 

Peripheral Visions is a unique reference collection that includes all of Robert Hood’s 44 ghost stories to date, three of them especially written for this volume. These memorable tales display Hood’s uncanny ability to make the fantastic real, to embrace weirdness and create human characters whose lives – both inner and outer – haunted by mortality, are laid bare and revealed to be our own worst nightmares. Ranging from melancholy reflection on life and death, through disquieting tales of dark humor and vengeance, to chilling visions of ghostly apocalypse. Hood’s stories are sure to draw you into a terrifying world that in the end is revealed to be irrefutably our own. Though many of these stories draw on the traditions of the past, they are far from traditional in approach.

As you turn each page remember this: not everything here is as it seems. There’s always something more, barely glimpsed, out there on the periphery.

Each section has an evocative, disturbing illustration by noted artist, Nick Stathopoulos.

 The Damned

Trackers #4

by Nicholas Sansbury Smith

36230869. sy475

Genre:  Apocalyptic

c8df8-add2bto2bgoodreads2bblack

My Review

So, this is the final book in a series that is especially chilling as it reads like something that could possibly happen. After gobbling up the previous books, I made sure to set aside time to read this straight through. So many of these characters were near and dear to me and I was anxious to find out how they were doing.

The president is between a rock and a hard place. Recovery is slowing to a crawl after the attack on the US and China is offering aid in the form of soldiers and supplies. There are many who object to this and will go to any lengths to stop it.

And things aren’t going well back at Estes Park Colorado either. People are reeling after being betrayed by some of their own.

You know how it is when you love a series, become so attached to the characters and can’t wait to see how it ends but don’t want it to end ? That’s how I felt about this one. And I couldn’t imagine how the author would wrap it all up. Well, Smith knocked it out of the park. The action was intense and almost non stop and it was anyone’s bet who would still be standing once the dust settled.

I’ll miss these characters. The good, the bad and the ugly ones. And a very special dog named Creek. They still linger in my mind and now that I’m finished, I want to go back and read the series all over again.

Synopsis

The deadly hunt ends in the fourth and final installment of the bestselling Trackers saga…

The mountain town of Estes Park, Colorado is scrambling to recover from the betrayal of two of their police officers, and prepare for threats outside their borders. But with Chief of Police Marcus Colton imprisoned by rival Sheriff Mike Thompson, the job to protect the isolated town is left to Sam ‘Raven’ Spears and newly promoted Captain Lindsey Plymouth. They will do everything they can to bring Colton home, and save their citizens, but one thing is certain: a war is coming to Estes Park, and no one will be spared from the horrors.

Across the country, Secretary of Defense Charlize Montgomery continues to lead recovery efforts in the wake of the arriving Chinese workers and soldiers. But the threat of foreign soldiers on American soil isn’t the only problem–the Sons of Liberty and other domestic terrorist groups continue to rise to power, enacting a wave of violence, and chaos that threatens to derail the recovery efforts.

Will Raven, Colton, and Charlize save the United States from collapse? One thing is certain–they won’t be able to save everyone. Not with their humanity still intact.

From former Homeland Security Disaster Mitigation Officer and USA Today bestselling author Nicholas Sansbury Smith, comes another harrowing story of survival in a post-apocalyptic world that readers and critics are hailing as one of the best post-apocalyptic books of 2017.

 The Farm

by Amy Cross

25472577

Genre:  Horror

c8df8-add2bto2bgoodreads2bblack

My Review

You get two for one in this book.

It begins in 1979 when Sara and her sister come across a dead body in the river. Waiting for her sister to return with help, Sara meets a mysterious man who claims to be Death. Not long after, bad things visit the family.

Flash forward thirty years. Paula and her father move into the old abandoned farm he bought at a bargain price because of it’s tragic history. She’s excited to learn it’s rumored to be haunted and she hopes to encounter ghosts. She should have been careful what she wished for.

I’ve read many of Amy’s books and she always manages to give me the chills. She did it again with The Farm. I like reading scary books at night. You get such vibes when it’s dark out and all is still. I managed to creepy myself out as the story got darker, the two separate stories came together and the horror come out to play.

I felt a strong connection to many of the characters and that made reading about some of the horrific things that happened to them hard to swallow. I wanted to go back and change the past and to warn Paula and her father about what was really haunting the old farm.

Be prepared. This is a true horror haunting.

Synopsis

One farm. Two tragedies, thirty years apart. And a tortured figure whose presence connects both incidents… In 1979, the Bondalen family farm in Norway is home to three young girls. As winter fades to spring, Elizabeth, Kari and Sara each come to face the secrets of the barn, and they each emerge with their own injuries. But someone else is lurking nearby, a man who claims to be Death incarnate, and for these three girls the spring of 1979 is set to end in tragedy. Today, the farm has finally been sold to a new family. Dragged from London by her widowed father, Paula Ridley hates the idea of rural life. Soon, however, she starts to realize that her new home retains hints of its horrific past, while the darkness of the barn still awaits anyone who dares venture inside. Set over the course of several decades, The Farm is a horror novel about people who live with no idea of the terror in their midst, and about a girl who finally has to confront a creature that has been feeding on the farm’s inhabitants for generations…

Handmade Ho-Ho Homicide

An Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mystery

by Lois Winston


Handmade Ho-Ho Homicide (An Anastasia Pollack Crafting Mystery)
Cozy Mystery
8th in Series
Independently Published
Print Length: 212 pages
Digital ASIN: B07VG2QZXV
GoodReads Link Coming Soon.

Two and a half weeks ago magazine crafts editor Anastasia Pollack arrived home to find Ira Pollack, her half-brother-in-law, had blinged out her home with enough Christmas lights to rival Rockefeller Center. Now he’s crammed her small yard with enormous cavorting inflatable characters. She and photojournalist boyfriend (and possible spy) Zack Barnes pack up the unwanted lawn decorations to return to Ira. They arrive to find his yard the scene of an over-the-top Christmas extravaganza. His neighbors are not happy with the animatronics, laser light show, and blaring music creating traffic jams on their normally quiet street. One of them expresses his displeasure with his fists before running off.

In the excitement, the deflated lawn ornaments are never returned to Ira. The next morning Anastasia once again heads to his house before work to drop them off. When she arrives, she discovers Ira’s attacker dead in Santa’s sleigh. Ira becomes the prime suspect in the man’s murder and begs Anastasia to help clear his name. But Anastasia has promised her sons she’ll keep her nose out of police business. What’s a reluctant amateur sleuth to do?

Christmas craft projects included.

 In One Fell Swoop

by Willow Rose

34520448. sy475

Genre:  Horror / Thriller

My Review

I was curious about this after taking a close look at the cover. Having read many of Willow’s books, I spotted those vines and my imagination took flight. The author sets the tone right from the beginning. Camping in the Green Swamps of Florida. Creepy woods. Campers disappear. Oh yeah, this was gonna be fun.

They say you don’t fool with Mother Nature and they’re right. She bites back. But so does Patty. Her grandson is one of the missing campers and she enters the woods, bound and determined to find him.

So much happens in this book. I want to tell you about this scene. And that scene. And how wildly imaginative the author got with the ways Mother Nature took her revenge. Crazy stuff. And great for a movie.

Beware. The woods are dark and deep. Scary things creep.

Synopsis

Fasten your sea tbelts as Willow Rose takes you on one scary, wildly imaginative ride. For anyone who loves a good thriller, this is a treat.

On a hot day in June, two groups of campers disappear in the Green Swamps of Florida. The wood is still burning in the bonfire, all their belongings are abandoned, and there is blood at the campground. But not a single body is found.

Patty McGee, the grandmother to one of the missing campers, sets out to find out what happened to her grandson, thinking his father might have kidnapped him. However, soon she realizes she is up against a force way more powerful than that. It’s a battle even she can’t win.

From the Queen of Scream comes a scary, yet humorous tale of man’s battle against nature. In One Fell Swoop is a compelling and clever story, as only Willow Rose can deliver.

A Sophie Kimball Mystery

by J.C. Eaton

Cozy Mystery
5th in Series
Kensington (August 27, 2019)
Mass Market Paperback: 320 pages
ISBN-10: 1496719905
ISBN-13: 978-1496719904
Digital ASIN: B07L2FJ1PN

A view to a kiln …

Sophie “Phee” Kimball enjoys working as a bookkeeper for a private investigator. If only her mother Harriet could enjoy her retirement at Sun City West in Arizona—instead of constantly getting involved with retirees being prematurely put out to pasture. This time Quentin Dussler, a prominent member of the clay sculpting club, was found dead, clutching a piece of paper scrawled with Phee’s mother’s name.

Terrified she’s been targeted by assassins, Harriet begs Phee to investigate. What Phee uncovers is a complicated scheme that only the most diabolical of murderers would ever devise. And as she chisels away at confusing clues and potential suspects, Phee unearths something far more precious and valuable than she could imagine. Eager for answers, she takes a bold step—placing herself in the crosshairs of a stonefaced killer …

The Devil’s Tree
by Susan McCauley
Genre: YA Horror
 
Kaitlyn didn’t believe in ghosts—not until one killed her boyfriend and
her best friend. Now she must stop the spirit haunting the Devil’s
Tree, or she could be next.
Seventeen-year-old Kaitlyn wants to escape her drunk mama and her trailer park
home life to enjoy a Saturday night off work. Instead, her boyfriend, Hunter,
convinces her to go with him and their best friends, Dylan and
Keisha, to photograph a desolate tree with an evil past. A terrifying
presence chases them from the tree, killing Hunter and Keisha. Left
alive with Dylan, Kaitlyn must struggle with her unexpected romantic
feelings for him, come to terms with her loss, and face being trapped
in a dead-end town. Kaitlyn is desperate to put the past to rest, but
when their friends’ spirits begin haunting them, she and Dylan have
no choice but to seek help from a Catholic priest and attempt to set
the trapped spirits free.
 
 
Reviews:
Susan McCauley delivers a poignant and frightening tale of love and
redemption against a backdrop of evil, both supernatural and not.
It’s a fast and exciting read filled with demons, ghosts, and
stolen kisses, and it does an excellent job of reminding us that both
revenge and love can be eternal desires. This is one teens and adults
will both enjoy.”
⎯JG Faherty, multiaward- nominated
author of HellriderThe Cure, and Cemetery Club
Evil is not always the only enemy you should fear . . .
Fast-paced and deftly written, with emotional depth from the darkest
of characters, this is a ghost story to savor.”
⎯Peter Adam Salomon, Bram Stoker Award®
nominated novelist, author of All
Those Broken Angels
and Eight
Minutes, Thirty-Two Seconds
