BOOK DESCRIPTION
When Amanda's lying, cheating, scam-artist husband, Charley, saves her life in a near-fatal motorcycle accident, she can almost forgive him for dragging his feet on their divorce. Then she discovers he'd been dead for several hours at the time she thought he rescued her. And not just dead…murdered.

On the good side, at least they are no longer married. 

But she's the primary suspect in Charley's murder and, as if that isn't bad enough, Charley's ghost shows up in her apartment. He was rejected, kicked back, not allowed to go into the light. The situation was bad enough when he was alive and trying to charm his way back into her life, but now he claims to be unable to go more than a few yards away from her. She can't even be certain he isn't peeking when she undresses for bed. 

Even death did not them part. 

As Amanda puts her life in danger in an effort to bring Charley's murderer to justice and send him into the light or the dark or anywhere away from her, she learns her knowledge of Charley's misdeeds is only the tip of a toxic iceberg. Charley blackmailed his murderer, blackmailed Amanda's father, lied about his family being dead when he is actually related to half the town of Silver Creek, Texas, and, with his treachery, has stirred up secrets that will change Amanda's life.

BARGAIN BOOK: The Writing Master by Kitty Burns Florey


We are happy to announce as a BARGAIN BOOK: The Writing Master  by Kitty Burns Florey (Click here for UK purchase).  Why not grab a copy of this today?


BOOK DESCRIPTION
Set in 1856 in the thriving city of New Haven, Connecticut, The Writing Master by Kitty Burns Florey is a contemporary Victorian novel that begins with one fateful letter and ends with another. It tells the story of a summer in the life of a young man named Charles Cooper, a teacher of writing – a penman – at a time when a fast, legible script was indispensible for a gentleman, and the gloriously embellished script of a master of the art was held in deep respect.

Charles’s anguished attempts to come to terms with the tragic accident that killed his wife and baby son are complicated by Lily Prescott, his sometime student – an unconventional woman with a shady past and an uncertain future that she is trying her calculating best to improve. When a brutal murder takes place just outside the city, Charles – as an expert penman – becomes involved in its solution, along with Harold Milgrim, an amateur detective in the mold of Poe’s C. Auguste Dupin. The consequences of his involvement are both unexpected and far-reaching.

Strongly influenced by the author’s love of nineteenth-century fiction and her immersion in New England history – and inspired by her 2009 nonfiction book, Script and Scribble: The Rise and Fall of Handwriting –The Writing Master meticulously evokes another age, one of sooty railroad journeys, extravagantly inconvenient clothing, strict social codes, and severe penalties for their transgression – as well as the timeless passions and aspirations of a cast of memorable characters.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
Marion is thrilled when she and her husband, James, buy a lovely, old mansion with a rose garden. After they move in, however, she falls ill and must stay at home to rest. Alone and depressed, she begins to have strange dreams which seem to take her back into the past. Although James is skeptical, Marion believes that when she sleeps, she is leading the life of a young Victorian woman, Mariana. 

Mariana used to visit the house as a guest of her friend Rosamund, whose mother is thought to have drowned while rowing on the river with her husband. During her stays with the family, Mariana comes to suspect that the death was not an accident. She investigates, but meets with obstacles that prevent her from finding the full truth.

Eighty years later, Marion takes up the search. The scene shifts back and forth from the nineteenth century to the twentieth, as her discoveries push forward those of her Victorian alter ego. The latter, after she accuses someone of murder, is never entirely free from doubt: she thinks she may have persecuted an innocent person. By determining what really happened, Marion thinks she can drive away the guilt that has been hovering about the house like a ghost. What she fails to see is that her obsession is damaging her relationship with James. If she’s not careful, she’ll destroy her marriage and her future happiness.

BOOK DESCRIPTION
Acting Obsessed is a romance and an exploration of both sides of the thin line that divides obsession from passion. In Ginger Brossard’s life the line seems especially thin and easily crossed. As a young and talented actress with a burning ambition to be on the stage, she embarks on a career with a Shakespeare theater company in Philadelphia. An actor in the company soon displays an interest in her but she turns his advances aside. When she meets an intriguing new man, and then receives a costly and beautiful gift from an anonymous admirer, Ginger finds herself entangled in a web of unanswered questions from the past, lethal danger, and the obsession of an unknown person who may have the power to devastate her life. In the end, she faces a choice between security and a risky chance for happiness.

From the book:

“. . . she didn’t notice the large man who entered the shop. He wore a black leather jacket over a hoodie, dark glasses, and a baseball cap on top of the hood pulled low over his eyes. He stopped next to Ginger. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw him reach up to a higher cubby, but she paid no attention . . .”

BOOK OF THE DAY: Released (The Shapeshifters' Library) by Amber Polo

by Amber Polo






BOOK DESCRIPTION
Welcome to the strange and wonderful world of Shipsfeather, Ohio, where an ancient race of dog-shifters has been charged with curating the knowledge of the world, and with protecting civilization’s libraries from the machinations of evil, book burning werewolves. For years a curse has imprisoned the dog-shifters in the basement of the Shipsfeather library—where they have made the best of things with a gym, a spa, a Starbarks, and, of course, their wildly successful internet company, Zoogle—but now, thanks to librarian Liberty Cutter and her zany staff, they may actually have a chance to break free again. If only they can convince her to believe in magic…

THE SHAPESHIFTERS’ LIBRARY: RELEASED is the first in a charming new series that will have dog lovers and book lovers alike howling out loud with delight. With a generous sprinkling of “Dewey-speak” and “dog-speak”, clever literary references and some of the most unforgettable canine characters since “Lady and the Tramp”, Amber Polo takes you into a world you will never want to leave. The Shapeshifters’ Library series is destined to be a classic.

AUTHOR BIO



A love of books drew Amber Polo into a career as a librarian. A greater love turned her into a writer.

The Shapeshifters' Library series is an urban fantasy filled with books, librarians and dogs and a library everyone will love.

The mystical side of Sedona, AZ became the paranormal setting for her first novel Romancing Rebecca. One day a plane flew past her office window and she turned her pen to her own airpark backyard and Flying Free was the result. In addition to her two novels and short romantic fiction, she is proud of her self-produced , Relaxation One Breath at a Time a CD that uses her voice to teach relaxation to calm your body and mind and/or help you fall asleep.

Relaxing the Writer: Guidebook to the Writer's High offers hundreds of tips to help writers and readers relax.

Sample her writing and see why Midwest Book Review called her work "quirky" and "profound" (is that profoundly quirky or quirkily profound?) check out excerpts and her award-winning essay Trick or Treat.

After living in seven states, she happily calls a small town in Arizona home.


REVIEWS
5.0 out of 5 stars Shapeshifter Dogs RULE! July 27, 2012
Format:Kindle Edition
WOW, what a book! As an author of Paranormal Romances involving all types of Shapeshifters, I am always on the look-out for books that are similar. Ms. Polo's newest, "RELEASED, The Shapeshifters Library" is one of the most unique and FUN books I've read in a long time! I have to admit I wish I'd thought of such a fantastic idea and wrote it first!

From page one, you're drawn into a fantasy world that overlaps into the real world and makes this a page turner --- because you want to see what happens next. Liberty, the Librarian heroine, is an endearing character you become involved with immediately. She has a passion for all things librarian, and a heroine's heart that will see her through a chain of events that not only threaten everything she holds dear, but even her own life is at stake. Her counter-part, the hero Chronus is......a sheepdog. Yep. A Shapeshifter sheep dog! I LOVE THIS!

Discovering that an entire community of shapeshifting dogs live in the basement of the Library is alot easier for Libby to accept than the fact that most of the town are Shifters in some form too. And the bad guys? They're book-burning Werewolves led by a Pack Leader that defines the word DANGEROUS.

Fast paced events start happening. The Werewolves will stop at nothing to finally destroy the shapeshifting dogs (who have been trapped in the Library by a curse centuries old) and gain control. We're talking danger, fires, and even death from these bad guys. They give the name "Werewolf" a whole new meaning!

But don't think this is a scary book! Its fast paced, tense, full of mystery, surprises, and even romance. But it also has alot of humor ---priceless humor that makes a reader think: "LOL--that was great!" Ms. Polo uses her wonderful writing skills to bring to life every shifter, every human, add lots of humor and mystery, and make this an unique story that won't be forgotten.
A HIGH RECOMMEND! Dog lovers, do yourself a favor and grab this book! You won't regret it! And for those who love shapeshifters, romance, mystery, suspense.....you'll LOVE this book too!
