Book Description:
Soul Thief. Bartender. Bounty Hunter.
When offered a job on the Holy Representative’s special security team, bounty hunter Zyan Star couldn’t be less interested – until she finds out it’s her most hated of exes they’re trying to track down. She’s had over two hundred years to fantasize about revenge. She just didn’t quite imagine it playing out alongside the emissaries of Heaven.
Working with Eli, the uptight angel who heads up the HR’s security, is just about as much fun as Zy expects. He of course wants her ex brought to justice through legal avenues, which is very inconvenient and incredibly boring. As she dives into the case, however, she realizes there’s more at stake than her plot for payback. Like, the free will of mankind, and preventing the minions of hell from taking over the sovereign dimensions.
This job is going to push her to the limits of her abilities, and there’s just a slight problem with that: the powers she’s suppressed for centuries after losing control of them are exactly the powers she’s going to need to save the HR, end her millennia-old ex, and stop Lucifer’s little plot to join the party and invade Earth.
Savior of humanity? Not so much. Or so she thought.

About the Author:
Dennis Bailey is a retired police detective who turned in his gun and badge for a monitor and keyboard. He is an ardent student of the Bible who felt the calling of God on his heart to take that learning and use it to further His glory. He is also a big fan of the Old Testament era, a time when God intervened directly, and often dramatically, in the affairs of man. His favorite of these was Noah’s Ark, and he dreamed of one day telling a story about how the animals rose up to defend it against an invading army.
Thus was the genesis of the idea for his first novel, Army of God. It is an effort to bring to life the characters of Noah’s time in a suspense-filled, action-packed adventure while maintaining full fidelity to the Scriptures.

Book Description:
Bryce Fierce seems to have everything a woman wants. Brains—he’s a certified genius after all—good looks, a successful career, and a family name many wanted to lay claim to. But what he really wanted was someone who was interested in him and not what he could offer. So he came up with a type and that is what he was going after…too bad for someone who was always right, he found out how wrong he really was.
Payton Davies was the girl many envied from a distance. Blonde hair, blue eyes, a killer body. Men wanted her on their arm for show. Even her parents told her to use what God gave her to get ahead in life because her intelligence—or lack of it—wasn’t benefiting her. What she wanted though was someone to be there for her. To appreciate her for who she was inside, not what she looked like, or judge her on any inadequacy she possessed.

Book Description:
If you’re a fan of twisted fairy tales, you’ll love this series. Alice never left Wonderland. She’s trapped. She’s angry. And she wants revenge.
The truth is not what you were led to believe. It wasn’t all “just a dream.”
It’s a nightmare. A nightmare she can’t escape, where formerly pleasant characters throw her unhappy unbirthday parties to torment her, while others like to make her cry so they can lick her tears.
But one day after years of this unpleasantness, she loses her heart. Literally. Well, technically someone steals it.
And she has to get it back. By any means necessary. And it’s a lot easier to be ruthless now that she’s heartless.
This collection contains the Prequel and the first trilogy in the Malice in Wonderland Saga, which is a dementedly funny, twisted continuation of the classic Alice in Wonderland books by Lewis Carroll.

People believe faeries aren’t real. They’re wrong.
Lily Boyd never suspected the old rhymes and children’s games her grandmother taught her were anything but colorful tradition, and when her mother moved the family to Manchester and forbade her from returning to the Scottish Highlands, she nearly forgets the ancient tales.

When Lily’s grandmother is kidnapped, strange creatures, dark and terrible, invade her home. Her only savior is Troy, a kelpie, a devourer of human flesh, and darker and more terrible than those who would have killed her. He has his own agenda, his own goals. Troy is her only lead, but can she trust him? Can she learn the rules of the fairy game before losing everything she cares about?
Don’t give a faerie your name. Don’t give them your thanks. And never, ever give them your trust… the stakes of the game could be your life.

Book Description:
A good mother would never desert her children.
But it was exactly what Jennie had done. She had growled at her daughters, cursed her husband, and slammed the door as she stomped away. Twelve years later, she asks a judge for another chance to be a mother, a good one this time.
In court, she lists all of the reasons and all of her excuses: the demons of her bipolar disorder, the alcohol that flowed too freely at the bar where she had worked, the guys who came on to her. Now, sober, chaste, and on meds, she is a different person from the one who walked out. Nevertheless, her request for visitation meets a stone wall. Her former husband does not want to share his children with the woman who deserted them. Her daughters have busy lives that do not include her, and they recall nothing about her, nothing good, at any rate. The judge is skeptical.
Even if the judge were to grant the visitation rights she requests, only half her battle will be won. How can she ever convince her children to accept her as their mother?
Whether your hero is Frodo, Rocky Balboa, or the Rebel Alliance, if you enjoy watching the underdog scramble against the odds, you will enjoy following Jennie as she struggles to overcome her past.
