So what’s happening now?

Hello reader!


We’ve been a little on the quiet side recently so we apologise for that but hope you will forgive us once we tell you the silence has been due to the fact that we are working hard on two novels. Yep you heard us! Two books at the same time. Now, we’ve never attempted this before as we usually only have the focus for one project at a time but in this instance we were torn. There were two stories that needed to be told and we dithered. We pondered and we discussed and in the end we decided that we could and would work on both.  So, what books are we working on? Well, you all must surely be familiar with The Rain and Jake’s story by now and we are working on the second installment of his tale. It will be scary and creepy and exciting and…well you get the picture. The second project is hush hush as it is something that we have never tried before so we are going to keep that one quiet just for now. Promise to tell you more soon though!


Okay, ‘me’ time is over now and I have to dash – kids to feed and toddlers to run after – but  will be back soon with more updates and news from the Amos Cassidy realm.


 


Keep reading peeps!

BREAKING THE ICE by MARY SMITH…

Fancy a little romance this winter? Then dive into…

BREAKING THE ICE
BY MARY SMITH

Breaking the Ice (The Ice Series #2)



BOOK BLURB:


Rachel Silver is independent and likes it that way. It hardly bothers her that she hasn’t even had a relationship in over a year. Her goals are firmly set on her career. That was until her love of hockey, and her best friend, crossed paths with Max Crawford. 


Even though Max Crawford has had a wild side, there was something about Rachel when he saw her for the first time. Maybe it was her smart mouth, or her sexy lips? Nonetheless, he wanted her. 


Finally, Max is able to start a relationship with her, but will her stubborn attitude be the downfall of their relationship? Or could Max break the ice that hold her firm?

BOOKS…

 


Ebook


 


 


SOLSTICE (BOOK 1):


 


In Gavin Moxley’s world, there is no thin line between right and wrong. In a personal crusade to help sever a line of disease carried by a clan of vampires; Gavin has no choice to be ruthless. The Vampires are purposely infecting the human population…waiting for humans to actively pass it on to each other. Gavin takes no chances and executes them one by one. Not strong or powerful, finding humans before they turn into full vampires is ideal and Gavin’s best bet.


Yes, this is Gavin’s life…


…And nothing ever changes it until a young half breed vampire with special abilities, Solstice, attaches and makes herself a fixture in his life when she asks for his help and protection and when a reluctant Gavin agrees he joins a dangerous game of cat and mouse. There is no safe place and the pair are constantly watching their backs. Torn between his hate and his love for Solstice Gavin is thrown into a moral dilemma that only he can figure out but two things are clear…


His faith and Humanity are being tested and the past is not always forgotten.


 


Solstice Excerpt:


 


The sun had already set at around six in the evening, when the party was over. It was getting close to winter and the days had begun getting shorter. She kissed her friend on the cheek and smiled at him while waving “goodbye”. She left Leonard’s apartment that sat above a quiet antique shop in the downtown area of Spartanburg. Despite the tranquility, she felt uneasy to be walking around the neighborhood so late at night


The moon broke through the clouds to light up the one lone skyscraper that towered over an array of government buildings. Little else of any significance occupied the district, apart from a few restaurants, a cheap hot-dog stand that was known for great food but bad digestive results, and a drive-through burger bar where the “rich kids” hung out. There was a certain sense of home a while back, maybe ten years ago, but now there was nothing but fear that plagues the streets. Just like any downtown area, there is always the fear in the back of your mind. Fear that you may get mugged or shot were the thoughts our lady had. This was all due to the television of course.


 


Equinox


 


 


EQUINOX (BOOK 2):


 


Confined in an old plantation home with Vampires lying in wait Gavin and Solstice are forced to wait them out until sunrise that is perilously approaching. Unbeknownst to them the remnants of the house are even more terrifying than what is lying in wait outside. Solstice is coming into her own and her feelings for Gavin begin to come to light. Gavin is stuck in the memories of his deceased family, but the apparition he sees that resembles his dead daughter doesn’t help. Lying in wait to escape at the first chance possible, will they make it through the vampires and the supernatural creatures that have inhabited the home for a very long time? “Equinox” ups the ante in the Solstice trilogy, and no one involved will come out the same.


 


Equinox Excerpt:


 


He took a deep breath and answered, “They’re not coming in.  Something about this place keeps them in their place and out there. That’s the best we are going to get at this point and we are quite lucky for that.  Sit down and relax and do that thing you do where you know shit about the situation.” Solstice threw her hip out and put her hand on it.


Solstice felt like a circus magician or even one of those carnie freaks that she heard about. That’s what one of her prostitute “care-takers” called her. She didn’t know what it meant at the time but as the days went by and her “abilities” got stronger, she figured it out. Solstice wanted to yell as well but held back because she knew Gavin was trying to hold back his. She figured it was probably for the best and that he was actually right for a change. What Solstice didn’t know was the brief moment of terror Gavin had earlier by himself while sitting down.

                     LUNA AETURNUS BY SIMON OKILL

 




18076577


As Eternal’s memory is recovered so her destiny nears and as her strength returns her evil nemesis discovers her and attacks.


 


Luna Aeturnus Blurb:


Rural France, June 1925 – The witness to the Moreau massacre, Eternal, is still incarcerated in an asylum, trapped by her amnesia. Only her true love, Edouard, can help rediscover her identity. But the startling truth attracts the attention of The Count, the secret leader of a vampire cult. The Count needs Eternal’s blood to achieve his destiny at the Eternal Hour and he has the forces of evil to help him.


With little time remaining, Edouard must unravel Eternal’s vampiric past, unmask The Count, and plot their escape. But at every step, dangers beyond his understanding lurk in the shadows, and Eternal is vulnerable to attack the moment he leaves her.


With the Eternal Hour at hand and the forces of darkness converging, Edouard and Eternal must fight to rid the world of this evil. If they lose, The Count will reign supreme and unleash the dogs of war and chaos upon the world. Let the final battle begin.

MY BIO:


I live with my wife, Shirlee Anne in a pretty coastal town in South Wales, UK. We both love Stephen King and had read many of his books and enjoyed their transition to the screen. Due to our love of books, my wife and I dabbled in writing for some years as a hobby. We were approached by a film company to write a paranormal TV series. We struggled most nights and all through weekends to come up with 22 episodes only for the company to go bust. Then after an accident at work, I was forced into early retirement due to disability. I used my newfound skills as a writer to help with my depression. We decided to use our TV series episodes as templates for film scripts and novels. My writing became more serious as certain A-list actors expressed interest in my scripts. I now have 3 books published – Nobody Loves a Bigfoot Like a Bigfoot Babe – Luna Sanguis and Luna Aeturnus.


 


Luna Historica is the final episode and will explore Eternal’s birth during Khufu’s reign as Pharaoh to her death in the French Revolution.


Bigfoot Episode 2/3 – it’s a secret!

SS-steppenwolf is a supernatural retelling of WWII involving the Occult Warfare department run by Himmler. Think Indiana Jones searching for a werewolf.


Scripts:


‘Flip Side’ is one of my most exciting screenplays to date with its unusual slant on a supernatural gangster story that encompasses music and dynamic dance sequences to portray the action.

‘Nightmare Circus’ is a supernatural revenge mystery script set in the Australian outback.


‘Dark House’ is set in Massachusetts, US, where a lonely female artist must overcome her agoraphobia to escape from three kidnappers holed up in a house haunted by a witch finder’s hanging tree.


‘Circus of Blood’ is a horror script set in Rome AD79 where two citizens go on a dangerous quest to kill a brutal serial killer. Their adventures end in Pompeii.


‘Hunter’s Moon’ is a contemporary supernatural western script set on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall.


The Last Warlord is set during WWII and tells of Major Stewart of MI6 who must find the Nazi’s secret Atlantis base in Antarctica or the entire world will be doomed


SYNOPSIS:


Luna Aeturnus is set in the French countryside June 1925.


Delicate Rose is a young woman nearing her Eternal Vampire state as her 19th birthday approaches. She was born on June 6th, 1906 at precisely 6am during the zenith of the Eternal Moon. And in less than 24 hours the Eternal Moon shall shine once more to bring forth Eternal, a vampire so powerful, nothing can stop her. But, she is held captive within the walls of an asylum with no means of escape.


Eternal wakes up in her tiny prison-style room with just one thought – her true love must rescue her and help her escape. Something stirs in her subconscious. Something otherworldly yearns to be set free by the next full moon – the date of her Eternal Birthday, just 24 hours away. Can she survive long enough for the final transformation? Her only hope is Edouard, her designated true love and psychiatrist treating her. But the more memories that surface the stronger Eternal becomes and yet she must depend on her true love for her very existence for out there somewhere, the evil Count Lucien is relishing the hunt for her blood – and nothing will stop him from becoming Eternal.


As the Eternal Hour draws closer, Count Lucien and his two other Suckling Vampires track down her unmistakeable allure to the village of Douvrey. She is so close Lucien can almost feel her. His hatred boils over as his addiction to her blood fries his brain.


The Count leaves a trail of corpses as his rage boils over. Where is his Delicate Rose? Having slaughtered all those who might know her whereabouts he has no choice but to hide from the sun. Mother nature has given Eternal a moment to succeed. But as Lucien sleeps to regain his strength the demonic Bonbon attacks Eternal with the intent of devouring all her blood for himself.


Eternal wakes. She opens her eyes to face the demon Bonbon, while Edouard lies exhausted on his bed. She is alone and must summon her darkness. Can she survive long enough for the final transformation? Can Edouard defeat Count Lucien and so free her of his infernal curse – a curse that stretches back thousands of years.


 


Excerpts:


Edouard:


Edouard stepped into a vacuum of eternal love. He went rigid with shock as the patient was indeed the woman of his dreams. He recalled the strange feelings since his arrival and the reoccurrence of the word Eternal. This beguiling woman was connected to him as if fate had welded their souls together. He breathed deeply to calm his jangled nerves, but it was of no use. He was reminded of that first kiss and nervously cleared his throat.


The patient seemed oblivious to his presence, almost staring right through him with her wondrous black eyes. And that music filled his soul to bursting. He had a strong desire to take her from this place at that very moment.


His heart skipped a beat as her eyes changed to the sweetest umber brown and her hair took on a more reddish hue. The music stopped as abruptly as it had started.


 


Eternal:


Eternal reached out with a frail hand and grasped Edouard’s strength. He shuddered with her divine ecstasy, her ancient power coursing through his flesh, blood, sinews and nerves. She allowed him to gently pull her from under the bed and help her to her feet.


She looked around the circular stone room with the slit window and thought she was back at the chateau. Eternal smiled into those green eyes. She had loved this man ever since their first meeting at Troy. Once again, they stood together upon the ramparts of the fortress laughing down at the folly of Agamemnon’s army. Her beloved Paris hugged her closely in a wondrous embrace. With lips parted, Helen gently brushed Paris’ full lips in a moment lost in time – a moment lost in eternity that lasted for a mere heartbeat. The moment evaporated as he drew back from her kiss.


 


Count Lucien:


Lucien brooded, silently listening, waiting to hear her dark music. He could feel her presence; but where and how close. She would never enter a place of worship, but he had been fooled by her. Could his mind violate the sanctity of the church? He tried. He got nothing.


Lucien’s black heart pounded like a sledgehammer in his chest at the thought of his Delicate Rose begging for mercy. He grew a hard on with the thought of her offering herself in reconciliation for their abrupt separation, before he drank every drop of her ancient essence to be Eternal. As for Jacques and Claudette – so what if they needed Eternal’s blood as badly as he did. They could suffer the consequences. Let their addiction burn their blood dry and fry their brains. Her blood was his alone, no more sharing.
