Blurb:
When Natalie Ross fled Philadelphia, the streets were run by a vicious man who took what he wanted, when he wanted. Natalie knew this from personal experience and has the scars to prove it. Now it’s time for her to return home and face the people she left behind.
While the city is the same, it’s also different. Marco is dead and a new generation is in control. Dominic has taken over as the boss of the Grabano Crime Family. He’s been busy putting money back into the community and negotiating peace amongst other criminal organizations.
The people are different too. Natalie and Grant’s mom has been in counseling and has seemingly changed for the better. She’s trying to make amends and forge a new relationship with her children. While Grant is more accepting of this, Natalie isn’t. Hurt from the past is keeping her from embracing this new and improved version. Under his newly acquired mantle of responsibility, Dominic has changed too. He’s less impulsive, calmer and stronger than ever. He still loves Natalie and knows she needs to feel safe in order to stay. His promise of protection isn’t enough so he makes an offer that Natalie plans on accepting until an afternoon of shopping at the mall ends in bloodshed. The tragedy leaves Grant clinging to life, just days after marrying Miranda, and Dom is arrested.
Natalie postpones her return to Los Angeles in order to take care of her brother. With her visit extended, Natalie grows closer to Dom. She wants to let him back in, but she’s definitely more guarded. Fearing Dom’s reaction, she keeps her recent experiences in Los Angeles with the L.A. Mob and the FBI to herself. However, the more time they spend together, he uncovers some of these secrets, making him doubt Natalie’s loyalty. With the FBI watching his every move and a rat threatening to destroy his tenuous arrangements with the other “business associates”, Dom is on edge and questioning those around him.
He pushes Natalie away, providing “the out” she thought she wanted. Only when she’s back in Los Angeles does the distance provide perspective, but is it too late? An unexpected business trip brings Dominic to Natalie’s door giving them an opportunity to reconcile or say goodbye for the last time.
Letting go of the past is the ending and starting over is the beginning…

The third book in the New York Times and USA Today bestselling Wedding Pact series, by Denise Grover Swank.
Libby St. Clair believes in fate–so much so, she’s willing to pin everything on a curse a fortune teller placed on her and her two best friends when they were kids. The curse, that each of them will marry before thirty, have a disaster of a wedding, and end up with a man other than her original fiancé, has come to fruition for both of her friends, who are now deliriously happy. But Libby’s attempt to quick-start the curse by proposing to her wrong-for-her boyfriend ends in a wild dash from the altar. She’s rescued by her friend Noah, the only person who understands her impulsive decisions–because he’s the same way.
Having spent most of his adulthood fleeing responsibility and commitment, Noah McMillan is finally ready to grow up. Of course, figuring out how is still a work in progress. When he realizes he’s in love with Libby, he flies to Kansas City to put a stop to her wedding. But Libby’s already pulled a runaway bride. Eager to cheer her up and prove that he can be the man she deserves, he takes her on a madcap car trip that will bring them all the way to the City of Sin.
In Vegas, those who risk it all either win big or lose everything, so what will happen if Libby and Noah take a gamble on love?
New York Times and
USA Today bestselling author Denise Grover Swank was born in Kansas City,
Missouri and lived in the area until she was nineteen. Then she became a
nomadic gypsy, living in five cities, four states and ten houses over the
course of ten years before she moved back to her roots. She speaks English and
smattering of Spanish and Chinese which she learned through an intensive Nick
Jr. immersion period. Her hobbies include witty Facebook comments (in own
her mind) and dancing in her kitchen with her children. (Quite badly if you
believe her offspring.) Hidden talents include the gift of justification and
the ability to drink massive amounts of caffeine and still fall asleep within
two minutes. Her lack of the sense of smell allows her to
perform many
unspeakable tasks.
She has six
children and hasn’t lost her sanity.
Or so she leads you
to believe.

Get a Weekly Text from the Gods of Ancient Greece!
Some of you may be familiar with the readings I do at events. I use a deck of cards based on the gods, goddesses, heroes, and mythological beings of Greek mythology.
The idea is that the universe could use these cards to send us messages.
I do it for fun, because, as you know, I’m obsessed with Greek mythology.
But since so many people love the messages these cards provide–both those that uplift and those that warn–I’ve decided to create a “Weekly Text from the Gods.” Each Monday, I’ll ask the universe if it has a special message for us for that week. Then I’ll draw a card and text the message out to whoever wishes to receive them.
I’ll give you this week’s message as an example of what you can expect in each text:
Athena warns you to put your feelings aside and study your current situation. Stop engaging in drama and find clarity through meditation, relaxation, or writing.
If you would like to receive these texts, along with occasional news about my upcoming releases, giveaways, and sales, fill out the box on my website to your right———————————————–>>>
You can also join by texting “Greekgods” to 313131.
This is going to be fun! I hope you’ll join us!

Crimson Chaos by Amos Cassidy
Crimson Chaos by Amos Cassidy, the thrilling conclusion to the Crimson Series, is out today! Rose, Raven, Roman and the gang must face their own personal demons and come together to fight an invisible threat that challenges the existence of their world.
An ancient prophecy.
An entity older than the beginning of time.
Surely the survivors of bloody battles on fey beaches deserve a timeout, a chill period, a chance to reflect? Yeah, right!
When the gang are faced with an ancient threat, it’s just another day at the office until they realise that this time their efforts may not be enough. This time maybe fate won’t be thwarted, because this time their foe is more powerful than anything they could ever have imagined. It’s a race against time, a race against the unpredictable, and, for the first time, the odds are stacked against them. It’s anyone’s game. No guarantees. No returns.
When Khaos strikes, who will be left standing?
What readers are saying…
…Amos Cassidy always does an amazing job of giving you just enough info to follow while still keeping you in the dark until the last possible moment…
…This series has been twisty and turny from book one, which I thought was going to be a typical UF but NOOOOO … we can’t have that. And following the gang’s story has kept me on the edge of my seat for the last three years…

Want to know a little bit more about the Authors?
Amos Cassidy is the pen name for Richard Amos and Debbie Cassidy. Amos is a 31 year old Diva and Cassidy a 38 year old mother of three; well, four if you include the husband. A common love of all things Joss Whedon, Urban Fantasy, and a tug of war over Jensen Ackles, brought them together, and one cold February afternoon, over nibbles and coffee, their partnership was born.
You can find Cassidy hard at work in her fortress of solitude which has eaten up the majority of her garden, and Amos…well he’s still trying to get the invisibility gizmo he got off a friendly alien in exchange for a pair of earphones to work. Funnily enough he hasn’t been seen around much lately…
Frequent doses of Sugary snacks, coupled with regular injections of caffeine aid in their production of a unique brand of cross genre tales. They are always writing, but are happy to take a break to chat to their wonderful readers, so drop them a line at amoscassidy.com, or just pop over to see what they’re working on and they’ll bust out the biscuit tin.

FINALIST in the 2014 KINDLE BOOK AWARDS
Welcome to Brighton, where there is no crime, everyone knows the date of their death, and the people live in fear of what’s on the other side of the wall.
Abigail has everything one could want–promise of a long life, potential for love, flawless genes and an amazing best friend. She’s perfectly content until her dreams are crushed after seeing a glimpse into her future. One person warned her not to find out, the only person she’s ever seen with blue-eyes: a handsome stranger who handed her an illegal slip of paper. Does she dare leave the wall and enter the zombie zone to find him and demand answers?
With that knowledge though comes a decision: fight or run. That is if Brighton doesn’t get a hold of her and her powers first.

writes fast-paced stories about kissing, hot mermen, bad boy vampires, and

Raye Wagner’s Curse of the Sphinx
Amazon:
How long can a monster stay hidden in plain sight?
Seventeen year-old Hope Nicholas has spent her entire life on the run. But no one is chasing her. In fact, no one even knows she exists. With her mom, she’s traveled from town to town and school to school, barely staying long enough to meet anyone, let alone make friends. And she’ll have to keep it that way.
It’s safer.
When her mother is brutally ripped away from her, Hope’s life shatters. Is this the fulfillment of Apollo’s curse? Is Hope being hunted by the shadow monsters of the Underworld? Orphaned and alone, Hope flees again, but this time there’s no one to teach her who to trust—or how to love.
Set in a universe where mythology is alive and well in the modern world, Curse of the Sphinx irresistibly blends action, suspense and romance. Curse of the Sphinx is the first book in the young-adult Sphinx saga.
Hope looked up from the bouquets to see the shadows at the back of the stall shift. A short man dressed in black advanced, his step both graceful and predatory.
This was not the same man she had seen by the Fish Market earlier, and yet his movements were eerily similar, as were his pale skin and dark eyes.
Her heart rate doubled, and instinctively, she stepped back. Her conversation with Priska came crashing back to her. She knew what this was.
“Leto! Hope!” Priska’s petite figure pushed through the crowd toward them. Time seemed to slow.
Leto took the change from the vendor and turned toward her best friend, her expression morphing from excitement to terror. The paper-wrapped bouquet slipped to the ground.
Hope’s eyes shifted from her mother to her aunt, and her muscles tensed even as her vision tunneled. Out of the corner of her eye, the dark figure was coming straight for them. She suppressed the cry that bubbled up her throat.
Priska crashed into them, grabbing at both of them with shaky limbs. Her head jerked side to side, her eyes bulging. “Holy Hades! WHAT IN THE NAME OF ALL THE GODS ARE YOU DOING HERE?”
“A fast-paced read with myth and reality seamlessly woven together to create a story that will appeal to fans of Percy Jackson. I can’t wait to see what’s next for Hope!”
-Jen McConnel, author of Daughter of Chaos
Raye Wagner grew up in the suburbs of Seattle, the second of eight children, and learned to escape chaos through the pages of fiction. As a youth, she read the likes of David Eddings, Leon Uris, and Jane Austen. Inspired by a fictional character, Raye pursued a career in nursing, and thought to help the world one patient at a time. One summer afternoon, a plot dropped into her head, and she started writing.
Raye enjoys baking, Tae Kwon Do, puzzles, and the sound of waves lapping at the sand. She lives with her husband and three children in Middle Tennessee.
Origin of the Sphinx is her first publication, and the beginning of the Sphinx series.
