SON OF MY FATHER
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DIKH570/
Book Blurb:
It was always "Father" never "Dad." The love and respect were manifest so was the distance - the distance not as evident. Christiana Lynn Barrington's life was a carefully constructed world built, presented and controlled by her billionaire father, Jonathan Robert Barrington. She never knew anything else.
Frequently, she wondered if her father had wished to have had a son instead of a daughter but never posted the question. Maybe she was afraid of the answer.
As the only child of Jonathan and Elizabeth Matthews Barrington, she was the heir apparent to the behemoth Barrington Holdings International. But a threat to her hard-earned succession waits in the shadows ready to take everything she's worked for away from her.

Inspiring and unforgettable, Letting Go into Perfect Love is a riveting account of a journey through the terror of domestic violence to a faith that transforms all. As a college administrator, Gwendolyn M. Plano lived her professional life in a highly visible and accountable space--but as a wife and mother, behind closed doors, she and her family experienced unpredictable threat. The statistics are staggering--every 9 seconds in the United States, a woman is assaulted or beaten--but to Gwen, this was her secret; it was her shame. When her husband eventually turned his brutality on her son, she knew she could no longer remain silent.
Alternately heart-wrenching and joyful, this is a story of triumph over adversity--one woman's uplifting account of learning how to forgive the unforgiveable, recover her sense of self, bring healing into her family, and honor the journey home. Accompanied by glimpses of celestial beings, Gwen charts a path through sorrow to joy--and ultimately, writes of the one perfect love we all seek.

Excerpt
Enjoying the view, she watched as he walked to the bed and reached beneath it, removing a Kink Ink bag. ���I went shopping myself today while I was in town.��� His bag was larger than the ones she and Amy had returned with.
From the bag, he withdrew a mass of black straps and silver chain. Arching an eyebrow dramatically, he carried the device toward her, stopping beneath the massive log that served as the center beam of the cabin. Belatedly, Jackie noticed a heavy black ring attached to the beam. Reaching up, Scott secured a thick steel chain to the ring overhead. From the chain hung a curved black bar, with black straps in various lengths that dangled beneath.
Scott crooked a finger. ���Come.���
Ignoring the butterflies performing dive bombs in her stomach, Jackie slowly padded toward him.
���Do you know what this is?���
She chewed her lower lip. ���I have a pretty good idea.���
���And?���
Jackie flushed crimson. ���It���s a sex swing?��� She eyed the device curiously. Two padded straps connected the ends of the curved overhead bar, one longer than the other. Two short straps with cuffs at the ends hung suspended from a chain at the center of the bar. And at either end of the bar hung a longer strap with cuffs at the end, presumably for ankles.
He nodded. ���I thought,��� with his hands on her hips, he turned her around, ���we might try something interesting.��� He moved the lower strap behind her thighs. ���Sit, Princess.���
Heart pounding, Jackie did as she was told, grasping onto the straps that hung down. Scott knelt, fastening a padded black cuff around each of her ankles, spreading her wide. Then he moved the shorter padded strap behind her shoulder blades. ���Now lean back, Princess. I���ve got you.���
Shakily, she lay back against the thickly padded strap, gripping the side straps for dear life. With a smirk, Scott peeled her right hand off the strap, kissing it lightly before raising it to the cuffs overhead. He followed suit with her left hand.
When she was completely fastened in, he gave her a little push and stepped back to admire his handiwork.
���Whoa,��� Jackie gasped as she swung around in a slow circle.
Scott grinned. ���How does it feel to be completely under my control?���
Jackie tried unsuccessfully to suppress a nervous giggle. ���It���s not so bad.���
���Not so bad? I���d rather it was oh, so good.���
As she swung around, she lost sight of him. When he came back into view, he was holding a black satin blindfold.
���Tonight, Princess, is all about sensations. We���re going to cover your eyes, so you can concentrate on what you feel.���
He stepped toward her and stopped suddenly. ���Did you come up with your own safe words?���
Her eyes widened. ���Oh. Yes. I did.��� She looked to him, feeling suddenly sheepish. Maybe we should just go with the original ones, she worried.
He raised an eyebrow, waiting for her to elaborate.
���Well,��� she gestured with a shoulder, causing the swing to spin to the left, ���I thought I���d use earth, water, and fire.���
Scott pursed his lips in amusement. ���Earth, water, and fire. What about air?���
As she spun, she shrugged. ���Well, I only needed three, so������
���Earth is the same as green?���
Jackie nodded. ���And water is like yellow, and obviously fire is red.���
���Obviously,��� he smirked. ���Alright, I���m about to blindfold you. Give me feedback.���
���Earth.��� She watched him carefully.
���Earth it is.��� He leaned down and kissed her tenderly before he slid the black satin mask into place.
The next time he spoke, he sounded further away. ���If at any time you feel uncomfortable, use your safe words.��� She felt a swish of air, as though he���d moved by her.
���I considered a ball gag,��� his voice came from in front of her, ���but I need to be sure I can read your body language before we take away your voice.���
Strong hands gently gripped her lower calves as he trailed kissed up the inside of her right leg, his facial hair prickling in a maddeningly sensual way. When he reached the place where her thigh joined her body, he skipped her needy place to travel back down her left leg.
Jackie groaned with disappointment, and she felt the vibration of his chuckle against her inner thigh. ���All in good time, Princess. The King will feast, I promise.���
When he���d finished his travels, he released her, sending her spinning in a slow, dizzying circle. With the blindfold, Jackie had no sense of up or down, left or right. She felt as though she were floating.
Then she heard a soft buzzing sound, followed by Scott���s sexy chuckle. ���Oh, this is a naughty toy. Just what did you get up to with this?���
Mortified, Jackie was at once glad for the blindfold, and sorry she wasn���t gagged. ���I, um���used it.���
He whispered into her ear. ���Yes, but how?���
Oh. My. God. ���I pressed it against myself.���
���And where exactly did you press it?���
Jackie cleared her throat. ���I pressed it against my pussy.���
���Your pussy. This glorious pussy right here?���
She yelped as he unexpectedly touched the vibrator to her sex. ���Yes.���
She felt him stiffen. ���Yes, what?���
���Oh! Yes, Sire.���
He applied an open-handed pop to her pussy, and she yelped again. ���How quickly we forget. Perhaps we should stop and allow you to consider the error of your ways.���
Jackie���s mind flitted to what Amy had said about orgasm denial, and she panicked at the thought of not being allowed to come during this play session. ���Um, no, Sire, really, it was merely an oversight on my part, I���m so very sorry, please, I didn���t mean it, I just������
Scott laughed out loud. ���You���ve been talking to Amy, I see.��� He whispered, closer now. ���Don���t worry Princess. I plan to wear you out tonight.���

DAVIDA by Karen Ingalls
MEDIA PACK:
Buy Link: https://www.amazon.com/Davida-Model-Mistress-Augustus-Saint-Gaudens/dp/1530397871/ref=sr
ASIN: B01DA963A8
DESCRIPTION:
Based on true events, Davida is the story of unconditional love between Davida Johnson Clark (aka Albertina Hultgren) and renowned American sculptor, Augustus Saint-Gaudens. It was a forbidden love that survived twenty-five years, until his untimely death. She was the ethereal woman; he was strength and exuberance.
Augustus was not willing to risk losing his growing reputation and recognition of his art by seeking a divorce from his wife. Davida was willing to be his mistress and raise their only child basically on her own with mainly financial help from him.
His most famous sculptures are of General Sherman in Central Park, the Shaw Memorial in Boston Commons, the Standing Lincoln in Chicago, and the 20-dollar gold coin. She was his model for the Amor Caritas (in Paris and New York City), the Cornelius Vanderbilt mantle, the weathervane Diana above Madison Square Gardens, and the James Garfield monument.
EXCERPT:
Gus often draped a muslin cloth over me, working the fold until they were perfect. He wrapped a garland of flowers around my waist and set a wreath of flowers atop my hair, which was parted in the middle and gently swept to each side in waves. As he instructed, I stretched my arms above my head and turned my head slightly down and to the right.
Once completed a year later, the angel stood in a hollow niched with her arms stretched high above her head, holding a tablet. Her wings curved upward, and she wore a flowing gown that barely covered her feet. On her head was a crown of flowers, and a garland of flowers was around her waist. Her facial expression was one of love, peace, and harmony.
This was the start of a long, meaningful, and special journey we shared. When completed in 1898, the piece would be called ���Amor Carita."
Tagline:
True love never runs smooth
SHORT EXTRACT:
I did not want to do anything to jeopardize his career or reputation
Gus led me to where the three statues were standing. It was my first time to see them���I was astonished to see my face looking back at me from three different angels.
Though Gus was gone, he was still quite alive in my heart. I wrote down my fondest memories of our days together, hoping someday Louis would read them and come to understand his father more.
Karen Ingalls is the only surviving great-granddaughter from the union of Davida and Augustus. She has written this novel to let the world know about her great-grandmother and to remove some of the stigma of being a bastard child her grandfather carried all his life. She has received two awards for Davida.
She has written a novel titled ���Novy���s Son��� which is about the difficulties a son, in particular, might have when he does not receive unconditional love from his father. He did not learn how to be a father, because his father had not learned it either.
Her first book is a non-fiction about how to survive one of the deadliest cancers: ovarian. ���Outshine: An Ovarian Cancer Memoir��� has won two awards and is highly recognized as a book of information and inspiration.
Ms. Ingalls is a member of Rave Reviews Book Club and Rave Writers International Society of Authors. She promotes and supports authors on her blog at kareningalls.blogspot.com.
She is a retired RN in Florida, enjoying golf, reading, and writing. She does a number of speaking engagements about ovarian cancer and has written numerous articles for medical journals and websites. She is the mother of three grown sons, grandmother to eight grandchildren and has one great-grandson. She is a ten-year survivor of ovarian cancer and donates all proceeds from her books to ovarian cancer research.

Joanna���s Destiny by Karen J Mossman
Media Pack 1
Buy Link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DHV33WF
ASIN: B07DHV33WF
Description
Struggling with the past, Joanna can���t forget the love she lost and the man who broke her heart. During the summer at a rock festival, Joanna meets him again. Niko is now an international rock star. Can they put the past behind them and rekindle the love they once had?
Mike stood by her when no one else did, but Niko still wants her. Joanna becomes entangled in a web of lies and deceit. Niko is the love of her life, but she cannot leave Mike in confusion and betrayal.
In Joanna���s Destiny, she has some fun times in France and mingles with the stars in Montreux. With a backdrop of music and fashion, emotions and friendships are tested. But her love for Niko never falters, showing that love can conquer all, but at what cost?
Excerpt
Niko���s Song
He began to sing a ballad that started slowly with just a whisper of her name in the high tones of his voice. When the words came in baritone, they were powerful and strong. His voice blended with the music, haunting and enchanting. Joanna was mesmerized.
The lyrics told of a young girl he had met a long time ago, a mere shadow of the woman she would become. The chorus sent a tingle down her back as he sang of his lady, such a special lady, who had forgiven him when he had mistreated her. The undertones told of how his heart had broken as he went through the door, leaving her weeping and alone, and how her eyes had haunted him. The guitar riff was mournful, and she felt tearful at the strength of his emotion.
She had never known Nike had felt like that.
Excerpt 2
The Aftershow Party
The doorway wasn���t crowded with photographers, and Joanna was relieved. They were shown into a vast ballroom highly decorated with colored lighting, lanterns, streamers, and balloons. Waiters wandered around with trays of champagne and canap��s and tables filled with a variety of food and drink.
���Oh, wow,��� enthused Kim, looking around. ���This is quite something. Come on, let���s mingle.��� Kim helped herself to some champagne from a passing waiter.
���You two go ahead,��� said Joanna. ���I���m going to find Niko.���
Lee Chapman, from Colour Me Purple, came over as Niko had introduced them at the concert. He was charming, but his broad Scottish accent made him difficult to understand. He, in turn, introduced her to Gary Faith, lead singer of the Faith Brothers. His Scouse accent reminded her of Brookside, the television programme set in Liverpool.
Joanna was utterly unaware of how beautiful she looked.
Gary Jones, who had been covering the event for the BBC was a native of Manchester, too.
���You chatting up my girl, Gary?��� said Niko, his arm encircling Joanna���s waist.
���Yes, a fellow Mancunian!��� he waved at someone and excused himself.
Niko kissed her forehead. ���Honey, you look gorgeous, and everyone���s asking who you are.���
���Really?��� Joanna smiled, her arms going around his waist. ���Did you tell them I was with you?���
���Sure did.��� Niko was looking particularly handsome wearing a smart jacket, a white collarless shirt, and dark turn-up trousers.
As the evening progressed, Joanna knew it would be one she would remember forever. It had the glitz, the sparkle and the atmosphere that made everything just perfect.
She giggled a lot and drank plenty of champagne. Niko introduced her to his friends, his arm fixed around her waist. She loved the attention, unaware of how striking she and Niko appeared standing together. Occasionally he went off to talk to somebody, while she danced, chatted, or drank.
Niko kept appearing back by her side asking if was all right and whether she was having a good time. They danced and smooched together looking adoringly into each other���s eyes. People turned to watch and raised their eyebrows. Who was this girl who had seemingly caught the heart of Niko D���Angelo?
Excerpt 3
Niko loves hers
Niko stood up, secured the towel around his waist and crouched beside her. ���Honey, what do I have to do to convince you? I saw something in you back then and I see it now. It���s kind of hard to explain. You were fresh and honest and sometimes so na��ve.��� He put his palm to her face, stroking his thumb over her cheek. ���You were everything I wanted. I���d finally met a woman with morals, integrity, stubbornness, and an ability to stand by her convictions. Everything I wanted to become was already present within you. When I lost you, I thought you had gone for good. So I���m sure, honey. I���m really sure.���
Joanna���s eyes were moist. It was not what she expected to hear. She wasn���t sure she could cope with such brave honesty.
Tagline
Love can conquer all, but at what cost?
Short Extracts
���You can only have trust in a normal relationship. Ours has been anything but normal.���
���You���re married to your career, you always were. Most people don���t want half of somebody, half a commitment.���
���It won���t always be like this,��� he said.
���Maybe, maybe not. How would you feel having only half of me?���

Bio
Karen J Mossman is a grandmother, but these days that is not as old as it sounds. A grandmother can be as little as thirty-two.
Karen laughs, ���It���s a long time since I was thirty-two, but we are who we are, and I have two beautiful grandchildren and a third on the way, so being a grandmother is fine.���
Besides writing, Karen is an avid reader and book blogger. She also loves to cross stitch and is devoted to her Yorkshire Terrier, Tilly. Living on the small island of Anglesey, just off the north Wales coast, she has plenty of nearby beaches to walk with her dog and draw inspiration for stories in her head, which may, or may not come to fruition one day.
Back in 1980, Karen married the boy next door and 38 years later, it���s a decision she has never regretted!

Excerpt
Gage clenches his hands tight, causing the skin to stretch and turn white over the knuckles. He inhales deeply, then slowly exhales to control the need to emit his pale blue shimmering smoke.
What the fuck! That sweet floral scent is driving me insane. I don���t know who���s scent it is with so many people on the plane!
���This is Captain Jones, we are approaching the Los Angeles International Airport runway in approximate 10 minutes. I���m asking that you remain seated until the seatbelt light is turned off. Thank you for flying Clear Blue Airlines!���
Carina turns her head to look back, raising her right eyebrow and looks at people lined up in the aisle all the way to the back of the plane.
Fuck, they don���t follow the instructions! Everyone is rushing to get off!
She turns around, sighs, and starts to tap her fingers in a rhythmic pace on the armrest. She leans into the first-class leather seat closing her beautiful hazel eyes.
A few minutes later, Carina pushes off the seat and stands in the aisle. She adjusts her shirt, raises her arms to reach the overhead. She opens the overhead compartment to grab her carry-on.
���Finally!���
Carina pulls on the bright pink carry-on handle, biting her lower lip. She inhales deeply as she tugs the handle again, the bag lurches forward, propelled by gravity. She quickly releases the handle, raises her hands up to break the impact.
���Oh hell,��� cries out Carina.
She steps back, crashing into the man behind her, gasping. She moves her hands up, ready to grab the carry on, closing her eyes waiting for the painful impact.
���I got it,��� says a deep voice into her ear, sending a chill through her entire body.
OMG! That freaking voice is deep and resonates throughout my entire being. What the hell! His scent is spicy, totally sexy, and heady.
Gage stands tall behind her, he swiftly extends his muscular arm around her, leaning into her as his strong hand grabs the handle, and instantly pulls it up and away from her. He sets it down on the vacant aisle seat next to her.
Slowly, Gage pulls away from her, watching her closely. He grinds his jaw to control the rampant emotions rushing through his body gathering into a throbbing ache in his groin. He hisses, closing his eyes.
What the hell! I don���t even want to know why? It can���t be! Is it possible? Fuck! It���s her sweet floral scent!
���Ohhhhhhh, uh. . . . . . thank you,��� gasps Carina taking a step forward, moving away from his fiery body.
She raises her trembling hands up to tuck her long golden-brown strands behind her ears as she turns around.
Carina���s eyes widen, long curly lashes frame hazel eyes, and she licks her dry lips. She rapidly blinks as she looks up at the huge man. She stares into the man���s black eyeglasses trying to see his eyes.
She nods, a soft blush creeps up her face, and she bites the lower corner of her inner lips as she tilts forward grabbing the carry-on handle keeping her eyes on his face. Her huge hazel eyes expand as she focuses on the perfect full masculine lips framed by a black goatee.
Gage rests his huge hands on the back of the first-class seats on each side, grasping the leather tight, bracing himself for the attack to his senses. His hungry eyes drink in every feature of her beautiful face as he waits for Carina to move forward. He clenches his jaw to control the urge to release his shimmering smoke with his spicy bonding scent.
Carina eyes slowly travel down his thick neck, then slowly takes in his wide shoulders shrouded in black leather jacket, and then her eyes move down taking in the tight leather pants.
���Uh. . . . . hmmm.���
Carina contemplates the bulge at his crotch, her eyes widen, inhaling deeply watching his deep purple crown peep up his waistband. She licks her lips watching the cock play peek-a-boo. Her mouth waters and she bites her lower lip.
OMG! He���s huge! That���s his crown! He looks tough, rugged, and so damn hot in black leather. Fuck!
Gage pale blue eyes discern her hungry look, nods slightly, inhales deeply, and clenches his jaw tight. He moves his right hand and quickly adjusts his pants hissing. He then pulls out his black shirt.
What the fuck! Her scent is driving me insane! Fuck she looks turned on!
���Hey sweetie, we need to move it,��� yells the lady down the plane glaring at them.
���Oh my! Sorry!���
Carina blush deepens, she hastily turns around and pulls the carry-on. She swings it in front of her and walks down the aisle shifting her hips.
Gage's eyes remain fixed on her soft round ass as she walks off.
What the fuck! I need to talk to her! Who is she?
Carina pulls on the carry-on and runs down the walkway, past the waiting room, down the hall, and into the ladies��� bathroom. She runs into the stall at the end leaning against the cold metal door closing her eyes tight. She inhales deeply and exhales gasping for air. She releases the carry-on and handbag, allowing them to fall onto the floor, raising her hands up to her face. She shakes head, inhaling deeply.
Oh my, he���s so damn hot! What in the world was I doing gawking at him, uh. . . . . almost drooling, thinking of riding that huge cock, forgetting everything. What���s wrong with me? How can I possibly think of riding his cock! I don���t know him. Oh, but that cock looks so yummy! Damn it, my mind stopped working, and my body was on fire! Fuck, in front of all those people! Hell, I was holding up the line! How fucking embarrassing!
Gage walks further down the aisle and stops to reach overhead. He grabs his carryon and walks forward to exit the plane. He takes long strides down the ramp searching for Carina.
Fuck! Where is she?

I live in Calif with my husband and children. My grandkids are my treasure. When I am not writing, I enjoy going to cruises, concerts, eating white peaches, pistachio ice cream, and sipping margaritas.
I have been reading the romance and suspense genre since I was a young girl. I always dreamed of writing paranormal tales that are full of love, incredible sexy wild men, mysterious realms, and a dash of suspense.
I love writing in the paranormal shifter romance genre because of the limitless range of characteristics, powers, and weaknesses available to develop the characters' and realms. I love sexy angels, gods, vampires, werewolves, dragons, and other entities.

4 Stories about Love, Laughter, and Wedding Disasters by Angela Ford & Jennifer Conner
REVIEWS:
The plot kept me captivated as a budding romance develops between Chasen and Skye, who seem to have the same vision and goals in life. I found the dialog to be open, honest and heartwarming and a few lines to melt the heart. ���It looks like your journey brought you, love.��� ���If you dream together, then it���s a reality.
I enjoyed this fast pace wedding novella with interesting characters. The plot kept the pages turning, and the dialog was entertaining. What happens when the wedding planner and her fianc�� have a difference of opinion? A wedding is a girls dream, and she knows what she wants, but what if the groom is trying to rush things?
The Professional Bridesmaid
To help three co-workers coordinate their weddings, Skye Wilson must act as a bridesmaid for them. Skye dreams of becoming a wedding planner and needs to start somewhere and reluctantly agrees. Just when the wedding arrangements and her plans started going wrong, she meets Chasen Dantrell, a handsome limousine driver.
Chasen has a growing limo business. He loves his job but the long hours of waiting by himself wear on him. That is until a cute, blue-eyed bridesmaid named Skye stumbles his way.
As their two worlds become more and more entwined with each wedding they work, Skye wonders if she'll ever be a bride and would it be Chasen at the end of the aisle with a ring?
The Undecided Bride
When Steven, the man of Bridgette North dreams, proposes she automatically says yes until her fianc�����s constant pressure for a speedy wedding has her questioning his motives and love. Now she is undecided whether she wants to marry him.
Mason is hired to trick Bridgette into marrying Steven quickly to ensure a promotion but ends up falling head-over-heels in love instead.
Can Mason explain his deceit and still win her heart?
And will Bridgette be willing to risk her heart one more time?
Red, White, and Bridesmaid
Jess Caldwell is the third in line to wear the mistletoe headband until she���s kissed. But it���s her best friend Kara���s wedding, Jess needs to keep her mind on designing the flowers and not on the fact that Kara���s older brother, Darrin, who she���s had a crush on for years will be there.
Darrin���s happy to be moving home, and what is even more of a pleasant surprise is seeing her again. Jess isn���t the geeky girl he remembered when he left. But after all the mean things he said in the past, will she give him another chance?
When things at the wedding go wrong, more than fireworks fly for this 4th of July wedding.
Will love be in the air?
The Reluctant Bride
Penelope Moore���s last boyfriend had no qualms about cheating even after he professed his undying love. As a wedding event planner Penelope has seen plenty of happily-ever-after. But with her terrible luck in the relationship department, she is reluctant to believe it will ever happen to her.
Ferguson enjoyed the freedom of bachelorhood until he met his last girlfriend. He considered her the love of his life until she betrayed him. Without his consent, she used his professional experience and knowledge as a private investigator to write and publish a best-selling novel. Ferguson couldn���t forgive her underhanded deceit and ended their relationship.
When Ferguson meets Penelope he is once again willing to risk his heart, but Penelope isn���t as trusting. Just when he is beginning to win the beautiful event planner���s heart, his ex-girlfriend arrives in town and causes heartache all over again.
