Exploitation With the Diavolo
Cruisin' Around Series
by Aleisha Maree
Genre: Dark Romance


Domenico Rossi
She was a ghost. One moment she was there the next she was gone.
A bit like smoke when you ran your fingers through it. Unable to grasp it, all you could do was watch it sit heavy in the air then fade away.
She played games with my mind, twisted my emotions, then she would disappear. Causing my body to crave her like an addict. Her body was sinful. Created straight from the fires of hell and just as hot. Her lips deceive you with every word. Her kiss was deadly and consuming all rational. Her heart was stone cold and locked with a key nowhere in sight, but it didn’t stop me from searching for it.


Aviva D’Angelo
He was beautiful. Something so unique and rare that I wanted to break it. Playing with him was a perk afforded to me from the pure hatred and long list of hits that I needed to prove to my father that a woman can live in a man’s world doing a man’s job and be just as strong. A daughter can be just as great as his prodigy of a son. Useful, resourceful, and strong. Yet in his eyes no matter what I did I was the reason he no longer had a son, an heir to the throne of the D’Angelo mafia underworld. So, with that being said this is why I play the deadly game of cat and mouse with all men of the mafia. Walking within the illusion of disillusion to unravel all the senses of the boss of bosses and bring down the house of Rossi.

Aleisha Maree knew she was going to write... well, since forever.
As soon as she could read she wanted to be that escape for others. Words pulled her in and held her tight in a world that captivated your soul and took you on a journey.

She's from the south island of New Zealand born and raised in a tiny but extraordinary village called Wakefield which holds so much more than her heart.
She now lives in the North Island of New Zealand in another village called Wharepapa South with her husband and 6 kids on a dairy farm.
When she's not consumed by those beautiful humans, she's knee deep in writing, working on another work of art to captivate your soul and mind. To take you to the edge and back again.
She's a dark soul and introvert who loves nature and water, is insanely in love with coffee and reading.
She can always be found with her family with a book in her handbag and the wind in her hair.
Just keep an eye out for all the loud crazy kids and she will be like right there!

Shlok's Dad by Vivek Sharma

... ...

 

 


Shlok's Dad
A Father's Perspective of Parenthood
by Vivek Sharma
Genre: Parenting, Fatherhood



What's the difference between motherhood and fatherhood?

Motherhood is like learning to drive a car. You start tentatively. Once you get the hang of all gears or buttons, it is all about judgement, or mother’s instinct.
Fatherhood, on the other hand, is like sitting on a new roller coaster for the first time. You just sit, holding white-knuckle tight. The ride takes you around turns, bends and loops. All you can do is look around to see if something has fallen, or try to avoid the vomit being hurled all around you.
Buckle up and join me as I relate to you my ups and downs, emotional and fun moments; all experienced on the roller coaster ride called parenting.
This book is a light read to reassure new parents, nudge wannabe or unsure parents; and for fellow parents to smile over similar experiences of seeing their own offspring grow (puke, stumble, stub toes) and reminisce over losing stuff, sleep, hair, teeth and shit.
Beware: I have learnt all I know about being a father from my son, Shlok!


**Get it FREE Mar 29th-31st!!**


Vivek Sharma is a B.Sc. in Physics, and holds an MBA in Finance, but recalls nothing in detail about both subjects. He distinctly remembers cutting classes and reading books or composing poetry, when not whiling away time humming Bollywood songs.
He claims to be climbing the rungs of the corporate ladder, as an international Banker, but has been struggling to learn the ropes of parenting since October 2009.
His designation, since then, has been - Shlok's Dad. With the onset of COVID-19, his wife has conferred upon him the additional title of Shlok's Mom (part-time).

When I set out to put my demons behind me, the last thing I expected was to find Sierra—a girl who’s as wild as she is broken.

Orange City by Lee Matthew Goldberg

 

... ...

 


Orange City
by Lee Matthew Goldberg
Genre: Science Fiction



Imagine a secret, hidden City that gives a second chance at life for those selected to come: felons, deformed outcasts, those on the fringe of the Outside World. Everyone gets a job, a place to live; but you are bound to the City forever. You can never leave.

Its citizens are ruled by a monstrous figure called the "Man" who resembles a giant demented spider from the lifelike robotic limbs attached to his body. Everyone follows the Man blindly, working hard to make their Promised Land stronger, too scared to defy him and be discarded to the Empty Zones.

After ten years as an advertising executive, Graham Weatherend receives an order to test a new client, Pow! Sodas. After one sip of the orange flavor, he becomes addicted, the sodas causing wild mood swings that finally wake him up to the prison he calls reality.

A dynamic mash-up of 1984 meets LOST, Orange City is a lurid, dystopian first book in a series that will continue with the explosive sequel Lemonworld.

Some tough kids at school who bully teachers as well as students. His puny muscles. His mean gym teacher. The Guy Upstairs who doesn’t answer his prayers.

Drained by Monique Singleton

Drained
by Monique Singleton
Genre: Paranormal, Detective Horror


Detective Liam Grady was stumped.
Never in his long years as a New Orleans Homicide Detective had he encountered a serial killer who literally drained his victims.
The mummified shell of a once beautiful student was the first sign this case was extraordinary. Within days she was joined by a high-class call-girl and a frumpy housewife. All died in the same sadistic manner.
What did they have in common, besides their strange demise?

Things are not as they seem. The victims have dark secrets, and tales of Haitian malignant spirits offer a slim lead. But it mean Liam has to ditch everything he believes in and open his mind to a conjecture that defied logic.

As he struggles with his own demons, Liam joins forces with a pretty student and a Mysterious Vodou witch doctor to stop whatever it is that holds New Orleans in its bloody grasp.

Time is of the essence.
The bodies are piling up.
And now the monster has Liam in its sights.


**Only .99 cents!!**
