A giveaway for launch of Forbidden Mind!
[image error]Over at my dear friend L.M. Stull's blog, you can read about my Forbidden Love and how it inspired the mind connection and romance between Sam and Drake in my new paranormal thriller/romance "Forbidden Mind."
Many of you know my love story, or have followed us at WritingInLove.com.
In the normal course of our lives, Dmytry Karpov and I would never have met. Unless I did a guest lecture at the college where he was a student… in another country.
Age difference, cultural difference… ours was not an easy match by society's standard. His friends and family thought he was nuts for falling in love with a woman he met online. A woman with three kids, no less!
Many thought him too young to handle the responsibilities of family life. But he is proving everyone wrong. He is an amazing father and partner and I am the luckiest woman in the world because of him. I get to spend my life with the man I love, who loves me. My kids get a fantastic father. And, he's an epically awesome writer! You should check out his book, Dark Edge. It's awesome!
So while some might think the romance between Sam and Drake is unrealistic, because they spend most of book 1 in each other's minds rather than in person, I know otherwise.
You can fall in love with a voice in your head.
I did.
And I'm so excited to share this book with you. A book so dear to my heart!

~~~~~~~~~~
Sam thinks she's months away from freedom. After spending her life in a secret school, [image error]rented out to the rich and powerful as a paranormal spy, she is ready to head to college like any normal eighteen-year-old.
Only Sam isn't normal. She reads minds. And just before her big going-away party, she links to the mind of a young man who changes everything.
Drake wasn't raised as a 'Rent-A-Kid.' He was kidnapped and taken there by force. But his exceptional physical strength and powers of mind control make him very dangerous, especially to Sam.
When they meet, Sam is forced to face the truth of her situation, and to acknowledge that not all is as it seems in her picture-perfect world. For what awaits her on her eighteenth birthday isn't a trip to college, but an unexpected nightmare from which she may not be able to escape.
To survive, they must work together.
But will their powers be enough to save them before it's too late?

[image error]The Sword of Oops by D.T. Conklin
What happens when a sentient, magical sword meets a Grunt? Disaster. Mayhem. And a touch of Oops.
The tiniest things can alter lives–whispers, decisions, discoveries. For Zerren, an ill-fated Grunt, he uncovers the later. In a field of grass and furrows and glory, he discovers the Krevn's secret.
Ah, but what to do with a secret?
Devane's Reality by Lane Diamond [image error]
How does one cope with complete and utter loneliness? Imagine living in a world occupied by one – not another living creature. How could such a thing be possible? Doesn't matter. What matters is how Lawrence Steven Devane reacts when plunged into precisely this situation.
[image error] Wind Tunnel by Lane Diamond
The sad and depressing Chicago ER has worn down Dr. Michael Sheehan. He wants more. He wants to make a difference. He wants to give back. And what goes around comes around.
Doctors Without Borders has just the spot for Doc Sheehan, and Pablo is glad Doc came. The local historian and storyteller believes in paying it forward, even if no one can understand quite how he pulled it off.
This feel-good story is a reminder that when we do good, we get good.
