Book Description:
“They call us Arbiters. We arbitrate conflict to keep the peace.”
In 2853, humanity has established a presence across the solar system. Linked by a network of FTL gateways called Boson Apertures, travel between the 7 colonized worlds and thousands of space colonies takes only hours.
The Sol Federation is the final authority, and the Arbiters travel the system to maintain order.
Arbiters Gabriel Anderson and Tycho Barrett have just been sent to intervene in a growing crisis on Venus. Information is limited, but they know two things:
Tower 7 has gone completely dark, and security androids are killing civilians.
No one knows what has become of the tower’s 520,000 residents or who is responsible for the mysterious assault, but the priority of the mission is clear.
Tycho and Gabriel must breach the tower, investigate the missing civilians, and locate the one responsible… all while trying to stay alive.

After witnessing her husband’s murder, Bailey’s been ripped from her life and secreted away in the Witness Protection Program.
Too bad the sleepy town of Shadow Rock was the wrong place to hide.

Losing all hope, she tries to kill herself …
Then wakes up in the hospital, more alive than ever.
Now Bailey has a “gift”— she can paint portraits of events that haven’t happened… yet.

When two locals offer their help, Bailey feels like she must accept, even though her instincts are screaming that the pair of supposedly good Samaritans know too much about her.
Can Bailey find the girl and prevent a tragedy — without letting anyone know she’s still alive?

But after sharing a heated kiss, Nick realizes that he’s not going to be satisfied until he gets to know her better.
Despite Emma’s first impression, she’s equally attracted to Nick, and when he shows up in Crystal Rock taking on some of the town’s charity causes at Christmas, including dressing as Santa for the kids from the Crystal Rock Center for children with disabilities, she realizes there’s more to him than meets the eye, despite his gruff, off-putting personality.

About the Author:
Right out of college, Violet Hart found herself at a crossroads — get a stable, good-paying job and live independently, or continue aggressively pursuing her passion while living in her parents’ basement. Of course, she went with the former. But, like the very first female character she lovingly carved out of her imagination, Hart was a go-getter. While working as a paralegal in Atlantic City, she consistently sets aside time for her writing.
Every day, she would come home from work, cook and eat dinner, feed her cat, and sit down for at least two hours pounding on her laptop and crafting numerous short stories of risk-taking characters in whirlwind romances. Hart is known for her powerful characterizations of daring men and equally bold women. Her writing style aims to tug not just on the readers’ heartstrings, but also on their curiosity and sense of adventure.
Hart’s short stories touch on the high stakes lives of men and women who are just as partial to money and fame, as they are to love and affection. Her latest ones take place in the decadent casinos of Las Vegas, where gambling is a lifestyle and money is king.

Could you betray everyone you care about to prevent a war?
Marcie Hugo isn’t a typical sixteen-year-old. She’s been cybernetically enhanced to have superhuman strength, speed, and judgement.
She’s lived her entire life in the Blind Spot; a garish neon rat run of debauchery. Since her mum’s murder several years ago, her dad’s method for keeping her safe has been to imprison her in her own home. But with her sixteenth birthday looming, she’s going to start making her own life choices. She’ll finally move away to the neighbouring Scala City with the boy she loves.
But when a terrorist attack raises the temperate of the cold war between the Blind Spot and the city, her vision of her planned future begins to fade. If she’s to put her bad memories and the home she hates behind her, she has to act.
With time running out and tensions rising, Marcie finds herself as the only person who can prevent the conflict. But it comes at a cost. Does she betray everyone she cares about and sacrifice her chances with her one true love, or does she let thousands die in a preventable war?
Join Marcie as she tears through dystopian cityscapes and neon flooded alleyways in an attempt to put all the pieces into place to prevent a war that could destroy the entire city.

Monday’s Featured Kindle Book
The United States of Vinland Box Set
Author: Colin Taber
Genre: Historical Fiction
Regular Price: $9.99
Today’s Price: $0.99
Click Here to Buy!
Book Description:
Welcome to Norse America!
In this collection you will find the first four instalments of a grand retelling of history. The beginnings of a glorious saga befitting the Viking age!
The Norse settled Greenland in 985AD and reached continental North America not long after – almost five centuries before Columbus – but left.
What if they had stayed?
Imagine what may have happened, how the world we know might be different…
Would the British still have built their great empire? What of the Spanish, Portuguese and French imperial expansions?
What about the two catastrophic world wars our timeline has endured?
Would there still have been some kind of American Revolution and Civil War? In such an alternate history, might the American Bible Belt celebrate the All-Father Odin, Freya and Thor instead of Jesus Christ? Indeed, what kind of America could have arisen?
We begin with The Landing as the Norse arrive on the shores of what we know as Canada’s Labrador. From there we will watch the first of them explore, live, love and in some cases fall. In time they will raise halls and found their first settlements as their colonies spread. They will meet other peoples and face great challenges. Bitter winters will come, but they will be followed by hope-filled springs. And all the while the Norse Gods will look upon the work of their mortal followers as a new civilisation grows.
Join me as we explore this amazing alternate history!
This boxed set includes:
United States of Vinland #1: The Landing
A Short Tale From Norse America #1: Young Ravens & Hidden Blades
United States of Vinland #2: Red Winter
United States of Vinland #3: Loki’s Rage

About the Author:
Colin Taber was born in Australia in 1970 and announced his intention to be a writer at the innocent age of 6. His father, an accountant, provided some cautious advice, suggesting that life might be easier if his son pursued a more predictable vocation.
Colin didn’t listen.
Colin has done many things over the years, from working in bookshops to event management, small press publishing, landscape design and even tree farming. All he really wants to do, though, is to get back to his oak grove and be left to write.
Thankfully, with an enthusiastic and growing readership, that day is coming.
He currently haunts the west coast city of Perth.

Book Description:
You have two options. You die, or you Qualify.
The year is 2047. An extinction-level asteroid is hurtling toward Earth, and the descendants of ancient Atlantis have returned from the stars in their silver ships to offer humanity help.
But there’s a catch.
They can only take a tiny percent of the Earth’s population back to the colony planet Atlantis. And in order to be chosen, you must be a teen, you must be bright, talented, and athletic, and you must Qualify.
Sixteen-year-old Gwenevere Lark is determined not only to Qualify but to rescue her entire family.
Because there’s a loophole.
If you are good enough to Qualify, you are eligible to compete in the brutal games of the Atlantis Grail, which grants all winners the laurels, high tech luxuries, and full privileges of Atlantis Citizenship. And if you are in the Top Ten, then all your wildest wishes are granted… Such as curing your mother’s cancer.
There is only one problem.
Gwen Lark is known as a klutz and a nerd. While she’s a hotshot in classics, history, science, and languages, the closest she’s come to sports is a backyard pool and a skateboard.
This time she is in over her head, and in for a fight of her life, against impossible odds and world-class competition—including Logan Sangre, the most amazing guy in her school, the one she’s been crushing on, and who doesn’t seem to know she exists.
Because every other teen on Earth has the same idea.
You Qualify or you die.
