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.

Can someone else's past come back to bite you?

After being drained of nearly all the blood in her body, novice witch, Portia Mullins, wakes up to find that her warlock boyfriend, Vance Mangum, has fled in search of his demon father. Determined to keep him from facing the evil alone Portia follows after him, unknowingly setting herself on the path of a new adventure that will take her, Vance, and their coven over international borders, into a foreign place where they will discover that the black magic which awaits them is far worse than they ever imagined.

Day 5 of Blog Tour de Force Masquerade

The Blog Tour de Force is winding down, we are on day 5 now. Are we loving getting all of these fantastic books for FREE or what? And how fun has it been trying to guess who has been hiding behind the masks? And how about all of the great goodie bags? Wow! Okay, so today we have "Change of Heart" by Jackie Chanel & "First Chosen" by M. Todd Gallowglass. Let's take a look!

First up we have "Change of Heart" by Jackie Chanel. This is a story of a woman looking for unconditional and everlasting love. She has three men vying for her attention - three? And where's the problem? I'd be happy with one man "vying" for my attention. Make sure you leave a comment to get "Change of Heart" by Jackie Chanel for FREE. And don't forget to make a guess at who is behind the mask!


Here is the book's description:
Millions of adoring fans...loving and devoted parents...fantastic friends...the world belongs to Asia Pierce, at least she thinks so.
There is only one thing that eludes the girl who has it all...unconditional and everlasting love. Asia wants what every woman wants, the fairytale. And Asia always gets what she wants.
With three men vying for her heart, Asia has a decision to make. Who can she trust? Which one will love her the most? The answer is right in front of her. But will years of bad judgement and one bad romance cloud her judgement? Will one more bad decision make her miss out on the best thing that has ever happened to her?
Change of Heart will take you on an emotional roller coaster ride as Asia's career and love life spiral out of control until she makes the decision that will change her life forever.

Next up we have another creepy for you! "First Chosen" by M. Todd Gallowglass and wow, this is a VERY creepy story. I just found out that M. Todd Gallowglass is a fellow Renn Fest'r. I really miss those days, men in Kilts, a windy day, I was an official Kilt inspector! Wow did I really just tell you that? Any how, where were we, see I got all flustered thinking about men in Kilts, oh yeah "First Chosen". This looks like one you will definitely need to have the lights on to read and might even go beyond VERY creepy! Let's take a look.


Here is the book's description:
First Chosen is the story of Julianna, a noble from the conquered kingdom of Koma. In her moment of greatest need, she frees an ancient god, Grandfather Shadow, from his thousand-year prison. In his "gratitude," the god names her his high priest and commands Julianna to lead his people to greatness once again. Unfortunately, it is a capital crime for any of Julianna's people to worship one of the five ancient gods - the punishment is not just execution but also the destruction of the soul. While evading Inquisitors of All Father Sun and the followers of the god of death, Julianna must learn to use the vast power that Grandfather Shadow has given her in order to survive long enough to unite Grandfather Shadow's fractured people.
And so begins, TEARS OF RAGE a dark, epic fantasy about the power of faith and belief, where even though the gods can inspire these qualities in mortals, it is those same mortals that truly control the religions that form from any god’s divine inspiration. It is also a swashbuckling tale of political intrigue where men scheme against each other and the gods, and how friendship, loyalty, and faith can help people persevere through the darkest times.
So what do you think? Super creepy right? You can pick up "First Chosen" by M. Todd Gallowglass for FREE, just by leaving a comment on his page. And don't forget to guess who is behind the mask for a chance at winning the Kindle!

Day 4 of Blog Tour de Force Masquerade

It's day 4 now on the "Blog Tour de Force Masquerade", and the excitement is still rolling along! Today we have "Toonopolis: Gemini" by Jeremy Rodden and "Widowmaker" by Cristyn West & Elena Gray, but Elena is the "spotlight" author. There are also a lot of goodies left to be had! So come join in on the fun!


Here is the book's description:
Toonopolis is a cartoon city that is home to the thoughts and ideas of all sentient beings in the universe. As the center of the Tooniverse, it acts as an other-worldly rest stop for these creations.
Gemini is a teenage human boy who is thrust into Toonopolis through his father's scientific research program. He loses part of himself in the process and immediately begins a quest to regain his lost memories with the help of his Tooniverse guide named Jimbob the Talking Eggplant.
After an altercation with a mysterious Shadowy Figure, Gemini's mission is changed, and he begins a new quest to defeat Shadowy Figure and protect Toonopolis from his nefarious destruction. Along the way, he meets new friends, discovers just how diverse and strange Toonopolis is, and learns lessons about compassion, forgiveness, redemption, and being true to oneself.

I would love to tell you about "Widowmaker" by Elena Gray, but I couldn't hardly find any information on it. I did find out that it is supposed to be about a horror movie that is causing people to die? Something so scary that people watching it are seizing, bleeding out of their eyes, and having heart attacks! Okay, so we have a totally creepy book here!

I'm guessing that this book has not been released yet and that is why I can't find anything on it, so lucky us! Maybe we are getting a FREE copy of Elena Gray's book before it has been released? You can get a FREE copy of "Widowmaker" by Elena Gray just for leaving a comment on Elena Gray's website, (click here)! How about that? And don't forget to guess who it behind the mask! Take a look at the spooky book cover, I think it speaks volumes on it's own, don't you?



Well don't these books sound like tons of thrills? You can get your hands on these fantastic books by checking out the "Blog Tour de Force Masquerade". Don't forget to guess who is behind the mask!

Day 3 of Blog Tour de Force Masquerade

Now we are in day three of the Blog Tour de Force Masquerade. Are we having fun yet or what? Belinda Boring and Vicki Keire has some pretty cool goodie bags didn't they? I hope I win, I hope I win! What Halloween costume did you tell Vicki Keire you were wearing to pick up her bonus book "Darkness in the Blood"?

Today we have "The Writer" by Augusto Pinaud & "Dance of the Winnebagos" by Ann Charles. More fabulous books to be had, let's take a look!


Here is the book's description:
George Mason was a loner before he published the three books that made him famous. Each novel solves a crime; each one had been about real crimes, all of them involving real and influential people. The problem, the FBI and police couldn’t solve the crimes until the clues showed up in the books. His secret is that he never wrote any of them, and when a fourth one shows up on his doorsteps he decides that the best thing he could do is to destroy it. The manuscript for the previous book cost him too much. Agent Chen Pak was following him almost all day and night. He was a loner and having Chen on his back made him really uncomfortable. The problem was the real writer was threatening George to come through or he would destroy him, while the killer in the manuscript is also looking for him to destroy him and the manuscript. That generates an adventure of intrigue, crime and mystery. Twist after twist, George runs to Colorado to look for the missing clues on the fourth manuscript and that’s when the heat increases, putting his life and the life of those around him in great danger. Will George publish the manuscript and bring the killer to justice, or will he be the protagonist of a fifth manuscript?
What?  Wow!  Okay, I gotta say it, I know you all are thinking it! Did Augusto Pinaud write this story or is it the product of a killer hot on Augusto's tail? Augusto is your real name George? This sounds like a real mind bender doesn't it? Augusto Pinaud is giving away a bag of his favorite coffee and a mug to go with it for a door prize! Don't forget to leave your email in the comment area so you can a FREE copy of "The Writer". And don't forget to guess who is behind the mask for a chance to win the Kindle!


Next up we have "Dance of the Winnebagos" by Ann Charles. Let's see what her story is about.


Here is the book's description:
When Claire's grandfather and his army buddies converge in the Arizona desert to find new wives, it's her thankless job to keep them out of trouble with the opposite sex. But when she finds a human leg bone and partners with a reluctant geotechnician to dig up secrets from the past, trouble finds her. If she doesn't stop digging, she could wind up dead.
Great, another killer on the loose! I wonder if Claire's grandfather has anything to do with the human leg bone she found? I wonder if it's Claire's grandmother's leg bone! How horrible would that be? This one sounds to creepy to pass up! Ann Charles is giving away "Dance of the Winnebagos" for FREE if you leave a comment on her page. Ann Charles is also having a drawing for a goodie bag that has a tote bag, T-shirt, poster, keychain and magnets in it, just for leaving a comment on two of the six review sites.
