Faerie Misborn

Titiana Academy Book 1

by Samaire Wynne

Genre: YA Academy Urban Fantasy

Life on the streets of Manhattan was bleak...

...for an orphan with little education.

Would a faerie named Chance change her life?

Holly considered herself "street smart." She had learned to survive, deal with the cold, and ignore the hunger, but at almost 14-years old, she feared life would be one long journey of misery. Then she met him.

Sitting alone on the grass...

...she held a sign hoping for spare change.

It read, "Hungry, please help."

The boy didn't give her money, he took her for a bagel. Holly was too hungry to say "no," and what he told her next was almost hard to believe. He had been sent for her.

She was invited to attend a school for special students.

What awaits Holly at The Faerie Academy?

You'll love this story full of teen angst, magical awakenings, faerie folk, and unbelievable challenges, because we all face tests in life and Holly is someone you'll want to see succeed.

Soar a Burning Sky

 

 


 A Fantasy You Can Believe In.  


Soar a Burning Sky

Echoes of EonThera Book One

by Steven Michael Beck

Genre: YA Eco-Dystopian Fantasy

**Outstanding Creator Awards Winner!**


Long before the Great Clock of Stars began turning, the destinies of Earth and its soul were entwined. For centuries these twin worlds, Earth and EonThera, existed in harmony, in perfect balance. However, as SOAR A BURNING SKY opens, EonThera is now divided and aflame. Earth’s radically shifting climate not only wreaks havoc upon its own, but rains hell upon those occupying its soul. Reluctantly, T’Aura, the last of EonThera’s shape-shifting Change Masters emerges from seclusion and, in a final act of desperation, resolves to gather warriors from the very realm responsible for EonThera’s suffering: Earth itself. 

 

Four seemingly ordinary teenagers heed the steward’s call, embarking on a journey that scatters them across the treacherous climes of Earth’s surreal doppelgänger. In the unfolding chaos, their fates converge, ultimately guiding them toward theirs and the Change Master’s true calling: to restore The Ticking, the equilibrium necessary to prevent the body and its soul from perishing together. Only by re-opening the Guardian Gate—the portal that circulates the Ticking’s life-giving energy between the twin dominions—can T’Aura and her new TerraTo’Kai reveal to both worlds the relationship they actually share: that each requires the other in order to survive.

 

SOAR A BURNING SKY is a Young Adult eco-dystopian fantasy complete at 105,000 words.  With its captivating characters, its intricate world-building, and its heart-pounding set pieces, it would be perfect for fans of Suzanne Collins and James Dasher.

In This Moment

 

 


 With the gossip mill a-buzzin,’ how is she supposed to keep her cool amid all the southern Georgia heat?


In This Moment

Heart of Vallantine Book 1

by Kelly Moran

Genre: Small Town Romantic Comedy

Southern drawls & y'alls. Come fall in love in the Heart of Vallantine!

It’s been ten years since Rebecca Moore left idyllic small town Vallantine for the big city and even bigger dreams of becoming an award-winning journalist. Her career a puff of smoke in her wake, she returns home for her grandmother’s funeral, grieving and with her life at a standstill. But her two childhood besties have a plan to restore the historic library to its former glory and convert part of it into a bookstore. It seems like so long ago residents had named their trio the “Bookish Belles,” yet nothing cures troubles like good friends and a purpose. The problem is, she needs a job until the renovations are complete, and just her luck, the new editor of the local newspaper is a Yankee. He’s also sullen, sanctimonious, and sexy. And with the gossip mill a-buzzin,’ how is she supposed to keep her cool amid all the southern Georgia heat?

Graham Roberts hasn’t exactly acclimated to the south. Yet, he moved for a purpose, and there’s no reason why he can’t help an old friend with a favor by hiring someone who is more than qualified. They could work side-by-side without complications. Right? Wrong. Bless her heart, Rebecca is the feistiest female on two legs with an innate ability to crawl under his skin faster than a hot knife through butter. Not to mention, she’s gorgeous as all get-out. Beneath her sass, though, is a girl who’s striving for acceptance and love. He’s just not certain he’s the right man. Plus, she’s given no promises to stick around. Worse, he’s starting to think falling for her may not even be a conscious choice. The heart wants what the heart wants. And between all of Vallantine gunning for their ever-after and Rebecca’s alluring charm sucking him in—again…and again—what chance does a guy stand?

Fans of Sweet Magnolias by Sherryl Woods and Virgin River by Robyn Carr will enjoy Heart of Vallantine.

Codex

 

 

 A whistleblower, a fatal car crash, and a ghastly coverup.

Risk is nothing when you have nothing left to lose.


Codex

by Lisa Towles

Genre: Psychological Thriller

A whistleblower, a fatal car crash, and a ghastly coverup. Risk is nothing when you have nothing left to lose.

FBI Agent Angus Mariner is off-grid after losing his beloved wife in a tragic car accident. Out of nowhere, he's approached by an eccentric old man, a billionaire, who gives him a three-million-dollar gift...and is discovered dead the next day. Mariner becomes a person of interest and later a suspect in that investigation as well as the death of a vagrant found on the beach near his residence. While investigating the dizzying turn of events, he is contacted by a journalist, who shares details of secret work his wife had been doing just before her fatal accident. Digging into what feels like unlikely allegations brings him to two unthinkable truths: his wife was a whistleblower about to expose a ring of corruption linked to the eccentric old man, and the fatal car crash was no accident. Out on a limb with no one left to trust, he must decide if he alone can expose the organization's terrifying agenda and bring meaning to his life's greatest loss.

Fans of Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne series will love Lisa Towles' new fast-paced psychological thriller.

Penance of the Byronic Hero

 

 


This is a journey on becoming what you hate, reflecting how you got there, and how to get back from it, if you can. 

Penance of the Byronic Hero

by Paula Macena

Genre: Narrative Poetry


Penance of the Byronic Hero is a narrative poetry collection that highlights emotional trauma in religious upbringings, specifically within marginalized communities, and how it reflects on personal relationships. Separated into four different acts, it recounts heavy topics in their rawest form, including mental illness and domestic violence, and the perspective of one who is toiling through these things and attempting to find a way out.


Penance of the Byronic Hero is full of heartache and beauty. Both the wonders and pains that come with the act of living. -Goodreads review

I was slightly skeptical of this book as I don’t tend to enjoy poetry collections. I find them to be disjointed, overelaborate, and somehow still flat and distant. Paula’s book was none of those things. The writing were clear reflections of a series of experiences and ideas. Acute relatability yet still unique expressions existed on every page. -Goodreads review


Amazon * Bookbub * Goodreads


Paula Macena is, above all, a writer. Aside from being published in Jr High the Magazine, Culturally Arts Collective, and Prometheus Unbound, her most recent poetry collection, Penance of the Byronic Hero was released in June 2023. In her pursuit of shedding light on marginalized writers, she hosts local writers’ events throughout Southern California. When she isn’t writing, you can find her making too much coffee, watching The Vampire Diaries, and staring lovingly at her cats.
