More than Magic: Semester Aboard by Elizabeth Kirke

Wow, we have a Mystery/Fantasy for you today, we have "More than Magic: Semester Aboard" by Elizabeth Kirke available at Smashwords, (for a discounted price, stay tuned for more information). Jen is looking forward to spending an entire summer studying abroad on a cruise ship and she knows the experience will change her life. Then she sees something she wasn't supposed to see, something she can't explain. Jen finds herself thrust into a world she never knew existed and her life will change more than she imagined. That is, if she can survive the dangers lurking on the ship. Let's take a look!


Here is the book's description:
Jen Maddox is a few days into her summer study abroad program and has loved every moment. She just left Mexico and is back on her cruise ship campus, ready to sail to Panama. Everyone tells her that the experience will change her life, but none of them realize just how drastic the change will be.
One night she goes out on deck and encounters five other students. She knows Charlie from one of her classes and he's a funny, friendly, regular guy. Picture-perfect Dani and his gorgeous wife Mariana live right down the hall from Jen. And she has seen TS, who's built like a truck, around the ship and recognizes the cute, but quiet Thomas as well.
Then Jen sees something that isn't humanly possible. Jen would have thought that it was all a dream, if not for the fact that Charlie, Dani, Mariana, TS, and Thomas are making every effort to cover it up. Suddenly, the five of them are everything but normal and Jen is determined to figure out what they're hiding.
When she does, her life really does change. Jen expected to spend her summer studying ancient Aztec and modern Panamanian worlds, but she never dreamed she'd learn about a magical one. Or find herself in it.
But Jen's childhood fantasy come true is about to turn into a nightmare; there's something on the ship. Something dangerous. Suddenly, everyone on board is threatened by a creature Jen never even believed existed. Jen and her new friends might be the only people who can stop it!
Now Jen has to learn everything she can about her new world before it kills her. And her friends. And maybe everyone on the entire ship.
Doesn't that sound exciting? I can't wait to read this one.

Shards of Heaven - Book 1 - Long Days in Paradise By Amos T. Fairchild

I have an exciting Science Fiction/Fantasy for you today from the "Shards of Heaven" series, "Book 1 - Long Days in Paradise" By Amos T. Fairchild. A young man named Jorden has stumbled into a strange land of not-quite human inhabitants. Along his way he makes a friend named Taf, Taf is at least human enough in all the ways that mattered. In order for Jorden to get home he has to find and face the witch-god Hura, if she exists at all, on the other side of Nowhere. But this is a world of many races run by the spiritual kaedith and financial sarisan, how will he ever find his way back home? Right now you can get "Long Days in Paradise" for FREE at Smashwords, (available in multiple formats), stay tuned to find out how. Let's take a peek!


Here is the book's description:
Jorden gritted his teeth as he surveyed the somewhat odd world he found himself within.
Things had settled down somewhat for the Tasmanian youth. He now accepted that he had somehow stumbled into a land of both beauty and nightmare, and was now forced to live within its bounds until he could find someone to help him return home. It was a world of warped pseudo-physics, a mash of realities and fantasies littered with peoples who were slightly not what they should have been.
Yet Jorden Miles had grown used to his aestri friend Taf: her claw-like nails, her angular teeth, and the eyes that belonged to a beast of the night. She was mostly human – pseudo-human in the ways that mattered – and she was a very dear friend. Even the huge landsdraw and the dirge weren't really that odd. Rats were rats and fish were fish, and sea-dragons were only God knew what. There were horses and cattle and sheep and pigs, and a few crystals and rocks made the world go round.
Aside from the earthquakes and this stormy Time of Darkness thing, all was peachy.
What was most important to Jorden Miles was that this was a world of men that was run by the female classes of the spiritual kaedith and the financial sarisan, and he was a friend of a lowest class aestri, a race that struggled simply to survive, seen as little more than vagrants if they were thought of at all.
There was only one way out, and that was to face the witch-god Hura herself, and she lived somewhere on the other side of Nowhere if she even existed at all. Getting there meant crossing the darkened and creature-filled lands of an unknown world, lands that no man dared walk when the light departed.
Jorden knew his chances of getting home, indeed even surviving at all, were very slim indeed.
Doesn't this sound like a thrilling story? Will Jorden find the witch-god Hura? Will he make it out of the darkness alive? What will happen to Taf? To find out the answer to these questions and more, discover the "Shards of Heaven" series, beginning with Book 1, "Long Days in Paradise" which is available at Smashwords, (click here, multiple formats). Amos T. Fairchild was very kind and provided us with a coupon code (WE28F) so we can get "Long Days in Paradise" for FREE at Smashwords, (click here, multiple formats)!  The coupon code is good until Christmas, so that gives you plenty of time to pick up "Long Days in Paradise" by Amos T. Fairchild!

"Atlantis"
By Lisa Graves

Elliott is a mystery. For Lilly, he is an obsession.

No matter what she does, Lilly can’t figure Elliott out. From the time Elliott moves in next door, Lilly can sense he is hiding something. For reasons unbeknownst to Lilly, Elliott avoids being seen with her. Whenever anyone else comes into the picture, Elliott randomly disappears. 

And Lilly is confused. Elliott is like a magnet. Lilly finds herself attracted to him in a way she can’t explain. It’s like she’s known him forever even though they just met.

When answers start to be revealed, will Lilly be able to handle the reality of her world changing forever?


Doesn't that sounds like a mysterious read? Grab this one for your teen or young adult in your life. You can find "Atlantis", book 1 at Smashwords (click here, multiple formats) for FREE.

Find out what comes next in the story of Lilly & Elliott in "Stonehenge", book 2 from the "Atlantis" series. So let's see what "Stonehenge" holds for Lilly & Elliott.


Stonehenge picks up where Atlantis leaves off and follows Lilly even further down the rabbit hole of her mind.

Lilly has it all. A tall, dark and handsome boyfriend, Elliott, a blond best friend, Nicholas, and a mind that has recently been opened to a new and exciting world. Her life is perfect.

When Lilly starts having flashbacks of a past life even Elliott can't remember, and they affect her ability to project, will Elliott and Lilly's relationship survive when she can't be with him?

Or will Nicholas's constant advances finally sweep Lilly off her feet and win over her heart?

2 Free Books from Milda Harris

And moving right along, up next we have two books that are again geared toward the "Young Audiences". But this time they are in the horror, murder/mystery genre! This is for all of you sick little twisted kiddies out there (I was one of those). They are by Ms. Milda Harris and again we have another VERY generous author who is offering her books for FREE at Smashwords to anyone viewing this blog! Oh what fun, let's take a peak, shall we?

The New Girl Who Found A Dead Body

Cover for 'The New Girl Who Found A Dead Body'Chloe is excited about spending her senior year of high school in California with her friend Jake's family. Even the usual dread of being the new girl can't bring her down. That is, until she stumbles across the dead body of the most popular girl in school, Lora Kelly. Now she's receiving threatening notes...will she be next?

Everyone is a suspect. There's her childhood friend Jake, who she's known forever and there's his girlfriend, Kate, who is insanely jealous of any girl in Jake's vicinity. Or is it Grey, the mysterious, handsome, and arrogant rich boy who has a passion for photography and Chloe is already falling for? Chloe doesn't know who to trust and time is running out before the killer strikes again...

Adventures In Funeral Crashing

Cover for 'Adventures In Funeral Crashing (Funeral Crashing #1)'Sixteen year old Kait Lenox has a reputation as the weird girl in her high school, mostly because of her ex-best friend turned mean popular girl, Ariel, but maybe it has a little to do with the fact that Kait has a hobby crashing funerals. At one of these, Kait is outted by the most popular guy in school, Ethan Ripley. Yet, instead of humiliating her for all the world to see, he asks for her help, and Kait finds herself entangled in a murder mystery. Not only is the thrill of the mystery exciting, but more importantly Ethan knows her name! A little sleuthing is well worth that!

Rachel Rossano

Okay, the Blog Tour is over, so now it's back to business. Today I have 3 books by Rachel Rossano. The first we have "The Mercenary's Marriage" and "Exchange" and last, but not least, her newest book "The Crown of Anavrea".  Let's take a peek!


Here is the book's description:

Trained as a mercenary soldier, Darius was a man of decisive action. He was also a man of compassion. Seeing a young slave woman about to become the spoils of war, he claimed her for his own. Marrying her before God and king, he made her a free and respectable soldier's wife.

Brice was born a slave. Abused and beaten, she learned quickly to avoid being noticed and to stay away from men. When her master's walls fell to enemy forces, she ran, but not fast enough. In Darius' offer she found deliverance, but experience had taught her to fear power such as his. Could she trust in his protection, or had she traded one form of slavery for another?




Here is the book's description:

Isolated on a distant planet, she is incarcerated for a crime she doesn’t recall. She has no name, no idea where she came from, or why she is injected with drugs to hold these vital facts from her grasp. Despite small rebellions, she wastes away, worn and losing hope of ever being whole again. Then he arrives. Claiming to hold the answers burned daily from her brain, he offers her a way out.




Here is the book's description:

In a time when castles were the strongest…in a place where combat was face to face…Labren was on the run. He hid his true name and he admitted it freely.

In a time when slavery was legal…in a place where kings were all-powerful…Eve, a slave, appeared in the right place at the right time.

Eve saved his life. In return, he offered her the opportunity of freedom. She did not know what would happen to her if she chose to accept his proposal, but she did know the consequences of rejecting it.




You can find out more information about Rachel Rossano and her fabulous books on here blog (click here).  You can also find her on Facebook (click here). The "The Crown of Anavrea" is just being released and Rachel is having a giveaway and celebration on her blog (click here) on October 29th.
