Armoires and Arsenic: A Darling Valley Cozy Mystery with Women Sleuths Olivia M. Granville and Tuesday (A Darling Valley Mystery Book 1)

Pick up your Bonus Gift with this brand new cozy mystery series featuring women sleuths, Olivia M. Granville and her friend, Tuesday. Note that this is a newly edited version with a new cover. 

What would you do if you sent a $30,000 piece of furniture out for repair and it came back with a deadly package inside? 

That’s the dilemma facing Olivia M. Granville, OMG to her friends and foes, as though the award-winning architect, interior designer and antiques dealer didn’t have enough on her hands. 

Olivia, a transplanted Los Angeleno, is the newest resident of Darling Valley, a picturesque town just outside of San Francisco and home of the DV Bills, as Olivia calls the largest concentration of billionaires anywhere in the country. Like the Astors and Rockefellers of old who outdid each other building humongous summer cottages in Newport, the DV Bills outdo each other with eye-popping piles of sticks stuffed with museum quality art hidden in the Marin hills. It was Olivia’s plan to make a killing decorating them. 

What Olivia liked best about moving to sleepy Darling Valley from LA was the absence of crime. No worrying about parking her car on a side street because it might get stolen. Nobody slipping sticky fingers into her purse and lifting her wallet while an accomplice distracted her at the sale rack at Neiman’s. Not having to trip over a dead body blocking the doorway of her office building while the LAPD took their sweet time locking down the crime scene. But the best part of living in Darling Valley was never having to find herself sitting across from Brooks at a dinner party while he romanced his new girlfriend and referred to Olivia as a client. 

What she hated about Darling Valley was the 400 miles between its pristine mansions and gritty but happening LA. Not far enough to save her from becoming Detective Gurmeet Richards’ lead suspect in a killing of a different kind. Yes, that’s Detective Richards of the devastating velvety eyes. 

Olivia should have remembered the advice her tea-leaves reading friend, Tuesday, gave her before she left LA. You get what you resist. 

Watch what happens when Olivia and Tuesday get to work proving her innocence amid the opulence and deception of her, idyllic but deadly new home.

Missing Heiress (A Jackie Harlan Mystery Book 2)

The Harlan Detective Agency was the best there was when it came to finding missing people. They were also the most expensive, so it was no coincidence that they were hired to find the heir to a fortune totaling over 1.6 billion dollars. 

Nicholas Gladstone left everything to a granddaughter he didn't know he had until a week before he died, but which one was it - the maid secretly working in the parent's home, an office worker, or the young woman tragically killed in a car accident?

Hunter (The Bang Shift Series) - Review

Hunter (The Bang Shift Series)By Mandy HarbinGenre: Military, Romantic Suspense

AmazonAmazon CAAmazon UK
After finally getting out of her disastrous relationship, Maya Carmichael has sworn off all bad boys. Sure they’re hot. The attitude? No thanks. But when her car is vandalized while on a night out with her roommate, she realizes her ex is truly sadistic. Her friend insists they lay low for a few days while the cops do their thing. Unfortunately her temporary haven will throw her in the path of another bad boy. Oh, she’s heard stories about her roommate’s brother, Hunter, and he’s just the type she wants to avoid. Until she sees him … and all good intentions fly out of her busted windshield.
Hunter Anderson might be the easygoing jokester within the Bang Shift crew—the small Arkansas town’s mechanics and the government’s secret mercenaries—but underneath his lighthearted exterior lurks demons of a past he’d love nothing more than to forget. Working on cars and taking the occasional contracted mission help, but he fears nothing will stop his past from coming back to haunt him. No one has tried penetrating the façade to get to the real person below. No one, until Maya.
The attraction is undeniable, but there’s more to Hunter than he can ever let on, and for Maya, this hot distraction makes it easy to forget the real danger she’s in. It has nothing to do with losing her heart to him.
When really it has everything to do with just that.

Or follow Tom into the unknown?Katie in Love is a compelling erotic-romance that will grip readers as they follow Katie’s journey to an ending they may have expected – but not in the way they expected it.Brilliantly written and coolly self-aware, Chloe Thurlow was described by KM Dylan on Amazon as “…the Anaïs Nin of our times.” With Katie in Love  – her sixth novel – Thurlow reveals a writer at the height of her powers.

 Didn't like the character, March 21, 2015By Nickinic - Ebooks Galore "Authors please feel free to contact us regarding our blog."This review is from: Katie In Love: full length erotic romance novel (Kindle Edition)*I received this book free in exchange for an honest review.*
Though there are a few minor editing errors, that won't keep you from getting the full scope of this novel. Yes, it's erotic, the author creates a very sexy tale. But, I couldn't help feeling like the character had me spinning in circles. At times, she just rambled about mundane things and it would go on for pages. I started to get bored and flip through until I found more about Tom again.

I like Tom. He was endearing, charming, interesting. I feel like it was Katie that drug this book down for me. I don't know, I just didn't like her. I could not connect with her at all. She was up then down and hell, if she was a real person, I'd worry she was manic. I know this book has a ton of rave reviews, and I hate to be the one to bring it down, I just could not connect with the story.

I do like the way the author writes. She gets a lot across to you without saying much. I will say this, as the story progressed and got more towards the end, it was a little more bearable. Katie was a little better for me, not so all over the place. The author can write. She's very good at that, it's just the character that ruined it for me.

"I ran once more through all the things my tutor had said and the same phrase kept coming back at me like an echo from the mirror: a good spanking is exactly what you need. What he was actually saying is: a good spanking is what I intend to give you, which was shocking, and all the more so that I wasn't more shocked."

The cover is enticing. The title, interesting. I'll definitely try something else by this author. This book just wasn't for me. Either way, grab it and find out for yourself. I seem to be alone in my opinion.Why no voting buttons?

I am a night person, the girl at the bar who looks like she should have gone home and maybe has no home to go to. I compose my work between two and six while the early bird planes follow the Thames into Heathrow carrying bankers and businessmen hoping to make it in the greatest city on earth – London, where I was born on a cold December night with a full-moon overhead and snow covering the garden. Katie in Love is my 6thnovel – more romance than erotic, but as Mother stopped talking to me when I published The Secret Life of Girls, I don't imagine anything is going to change. Katie in Love took 13 months to write and my soul is pressed into every page.

The Memory ClosetAmazon CAAmazon UK
When Anne Mitchell was 11 years old, something happened to her that erased the whole first decade of her life, and 25 years later, she has come home to re-claim her past.

Oh, she gets it. She understands that something profoundly evil lurks in the swirling purple haze of her amnesia.

For 25 years, she was enslaved by what she called the "Boogie Man"-- images from her lost childhood that appeared in the shadows behind her reflection in mirrors and wine glasses, haunted her dreams and attacked her in screaming night terrors. Fear of facing that secret held her hostage. Like a schoolyard bully, it twisted her arm behind her back and forced her to accept that her life began in the dirt beside the ditch where the family station wagon burned like hell had opened up a crack in the world right there in the back seat.

Then the monster shattered her career. 

And Anne saw him in her dying mother's eyes. With her last breath, Susan Mitchell begged for her daughter's forgiveness. She didn't mean for it to happen, she gasped, but she'll burn in hell for what she did all the same. 

What did her mother do? Anne has to know. 

So she has come home to a small Texas prairie town to live with her crazy grandmother in the rambling old house where she grew up to take her stand against the Boogie Man. But Anne isn't really prepared for how expensive remembering might be. The cost of her memories could very well be her sanity. 

Each new revelation loosens Anne's grip on reality.

Surely her crazy grandmother didn't do THAT to Anne's beloved parakeet! Yes, the old woman DID! No ... actually, she didn't. The horror that attacks her in the garage--it can't possibly be real...can it? 

And most important: what happened to the little girl with a face like a china doll whose name was Laughs in the Wind? 

The Boogie Man knows. 

He also knows Anne's here. He knows it's showtime. And he knows what she doesn't--that Anne might very well have to pay for her past with her future, that the cost of remembering could be her life.

What the Duke Wants (Agents of Change Book 1) Amazon CAAmazon UK
What happens when a staid duke with a tragic past meets an accident-prone young lady just waiting for the day when she comes into her inheritance? Anything! What the Duke Wants is everything a Regency romance should be – charming, witty, suspenseful, and above all … sexy. Amy Quinton brings you Book 1 of her spicy new Regency series, Agents of Change.

She is from trade. He is a duke and a spy with a name to restore and a mystery to solve.

England, 1814:

Miss Grace Radclyffe is an oftentimes hilariously clumsy 20-year-old orphan biding her time living with her uncle until she is old enough to come into her small inheritance. Much to her aunt’s chagrin, she isn’t reserved (not with her shocking! tendency to befriend the servants), sophisticated (highly overrated if one cannot run around barefoot outside), or graceful (she once flung her dinner into a duke’s face… by accident, of course).

But she is practical (owning a fashion house is in her future, unless someone foils her plans…) and in love… maybe… perhaps… possibly…

The Duke of Stonebridge is a man with a tragic past. His father died mysteriously when he was twelve years old amid speculation suggesting that the old duke was ‘involved’ with another man. He must restore his family name, but on the eve of his engagement to the perfect debutante, he meets his betrothed’s cousin, and his world is turned inside out... No matter; he is always logical (men who follow their hearts and not their heads are foolish) and reserved (his private life is nobody’s business but his own). He isn’t impulsive (it always leads to trouble), charming (that’s his best friend, the Marquess of Dansbury’s, area of expertise).

Or in love… maybe… perhaps… possibly…

Can he have what he wants and remain respectable? Can she trust him to be the man she needs?

My Review 

5.0 out of 5 stars great new series, March 17, 2015By Nickinic - Ebooks Galore "Authors please feel... (Middle of Nowhere, NY) - See all my reviewsThis review is from: Penemuae (The Watchers of Enoch Book 1) (Kindle Edition)*I received this book free in exchange for an honest review*
This was an amazing story! It's like fallen angels, but not. Fiesty, spunky women that remind me of my friends, and sexy immortal men! The story was great. The history behind the paranormal happenings. The way the story unfolds, I'm dying to know more! This was a great read. I think that anyone who enjoys a "non-shifter" paranormal book, will enjoy this greatly! It's a thrilling story with hints of romance without being over the top sexy. It was refreshing to see this just focus on the story. I can't wait for more.Why no voting buttons?

Chapter One:Chapter One Evelyn stretched, groaning at the ache in her back. It’d been a long night and she was looking at a two hour class at the medical center before she’d be able to crawl into bed. At least she only had two more charts to make notes in and then she could run home for a much needed shower.
“You doing your civic duty and chatting with teens again tonight, Eve?”
Turning, Evelyn saw her coworker and friend. “Hey, Jess. How’s it going? Yeah, I’m working at Strawberry House again tonight. Two hours with the teen pregnancy group.”
Jess’ thousand watt smile lit up the room. “You’re so good for those girls.”
Evelyn grinned. “You should come out sometime. It’d do you good to see some of them turn their lives around.”
Her friend shook long, blonde hair away from her face. “Naw. I don’t have time, and you know I don’t do well with bratty teens.”

“Yeah, even when we were teens you didn’t deal well with others our age.”




Lea lives in Western New York with her hubby, three children, and miscellaneous critters. Before the rug rats, she lived a life of adventure, following her husband all over Europe with the US military. She's slept in a car outside Paris, drove six hours just to see tulips in the Netherlands, and knocked ash from her shoes at Pompeii. Now she spends her time in life's adventures at soccer games, PTA meetings and school plays.

Lea has loved reading from a very young age, spending many sleepless nights devouring books. Science fiction and paranormal were her favorite genres to read as a teenager, and that love bled into her adult life. She started writing during a bout of insomnia, to fill time, and found it filled a creative void. Now she communes regularly with the characters in her head and tries not to laugh out loud when they say something funny.


When Lea isn't reading, writing or corralling kids, she enjoys watching movies and sciencey shows, or just kicking back and listening to some music.


She loves hearing from readers. Find her hanging out on the web at:
