Now he’s back to help his buddy get married, and he hopes to find peace on the family farm, with Mallory by his side…


When the wedding planning kicks into high gear, Beckett and Mallory are thrust together as maid of honor and best man.

But true love won’t stay hidden forever…

Book One

by B.A. Bellec

Bellec's descriptions are phenomenal, brutal, and heart-stopping. There were parts that made my skin crawl, but I couldn't tear my eyes away. . . I needed more!”

- Jessica Scurlock, Author of the Pretty Lies Series & Pulse Beta Reader

Pulse is a plot-driven multi-POV dystopian sci-fi horror thriller set in 2040, centered around a corporation, a creature, and a music festival. Think Fyre Festival, Black Mirror, and X-Files combined. The story deals with themes of capitalism, consumerism, business, politics, pandemics, climate change, activism, and technology while bouncing between a diverse group of characters sure to entertain almost anyone. The book is already being praised for its fantastic use of horror, engaging world-building, and genre-bending approach utilizing some screenplay-like formatting. This is the first entry in a new series with the sequel well underway.

B.A. Bellec writes with a unique, modern, minimalistic voice. He is the author of Someone's Story, his award-winning debut novel called a masterpiece by multiple reviewers. Never afraid of a challenge, Bellec switched genres to bring you this dark vision that simmered in his mind for years.

Book Two

by B.A. Bellec

Genre: Post-Apocalyptic SciFi Horror 

The fate of humanity rests in the hands of a few.

Pulse: Book Two is the conclusion of B.A. Bellec’s dystopian sci-fi horror duology.

Our chaotic journey picks up moments after the first book ends with action from the second you start turning the pages, but if you thought you knew where the story was going, leave your expectations at the door and ask yourself this one question: how would an autonomous droid defeat a monster?

Someone’s Story

by B.A. Bellec

Genre: YA Coming of Age



In his literary debut, B.A. Bellec writes an endearing coming-of-age tale about a group of weirdos that find and save each other from the dark depths of their minds. Someone’s Story is literally Someone’s story, as in a first-person narrative of a teenager that calls himself Someone. As he struggles to find a new footing in a new space, we encounter the many ups and downs of modern teenage life, the difficulties that adjusting to adult feelings brings, and a few tear-jerking surprises along the way.

Littered with music, mental health, friendship, loss, meditation, advice, pop culture, and even inspiring an EP, there is so much nostalgia, inspiration, and depth here it is hard to absorb it all. Cozy up somewhere warm and enjoy!

 ATOMICA – BETWEEN SEA AND SKY, is a compelling saga of love, duty, and sacrifice set against the stunning backdrop of a lush tropical island— where the line between hero and villain blurs in the shadows of a forgotten world.  

Atomica – Between Sea and Sky

Atomica Book 1

by Heather McKenzie

Genre: YA SciFi Fantasy Romance  




 “Never judge based on appearances. Sometimes the most unassuming can be the deadliest.”


A compelling saga of love, duty, and sacrifice set against the stunning backdrop of a lush tropical island—where the line between hero and villain blurs in the shadows of a forgotten world...


In a land ravaged by ancient vendettas, nineteen-year-old Eva has vowed to protect Zoleya, a petite, blue-eyed girl with a powerful gift. But when a catastrophic shipwreck strands her on a mysterious tropical island and Zoleya disappears, Eva is forced to abandon her duty and form alliances with a group of castaways to survive. While facing the island’s perils and a corrupt band of Raiders intent on her capture, Eva fights to reclaim her title as Zoleya’s Guardian.

Kade Thorn, a hunter programmed to seek and destroy all remnants of forbidden technology, battles his opposing impulses. Bound by ancient markings etched into his skin that incite violence, he finds himself torn between blindly obeying his directive or pursuing a powerful attraction to Eva, knowing either choice will get him killed.

Forced to rely on each other, Eva and Kade seek refuge deep within the island's jungle and become conflicted about where their loyalties lie. Will they find their way back to their predetermined paths or forge a new destiny together? The fate of Zoleya—the catalyst to either save the world or destroy it—hangs in the balance.

 I am Canadian, born and raised in Alberta on a lovely acreage just outside of Edmonton to musical parents. I began my arts career as a musician, leaving home at the age of fifteen to play in a rock band, then went on to become a singer/songwriter. I wrote songs and told stories with melodies, lucky enough to tour Canada and record four studio albums, as well as work as a studio musician. I spent years singing my heart out. However, when I discovered the limitless creativity of novel writing, I shifted my focus to a literary career. My extraordinary experiences as a musician continue to fuel my writing. I am deeply inspired by art and profoundly humbled by the creativity of others. Creating is a fundamental part of my life, and expressing myself through storytelling is incredibly important to me. I strive to transport readers to different places or provide them with a companion for three hundred pages, impacting them as my favorite writers and artists have impacted me.

I like to write about deeply flawed characters with relatable struggles and how they react in extraordinary circumstances. The Rocky Mountains and the wonders of nature greatly inspire me, and I love to explore the juxtaposition of these settings with urban landscapes. My novels are characterized by action, adventure, lots of romance, and unexpected twists. I like to put my characters in unique settings and fully explore their motivations while drawing heavily on my personal experiences.

I am honored to be represented by Elizabeth Winick Rubinstein of McIntosh and Otis, one of the USA’s longest-running literary agencies, representing remarkable authors such as the late John Steinbeck and Harper Lee. As a ‘hybrid’ author, Elizabeth represents my adult works, while I represent my young adult works. I am determined not to limit myself to one specific genre and hope to follow in the footsteps of authors who have achieved success this way, as I value the artistic freedom it affords.

At present, I have four published novels; Serenade, Nocturne and Rhapsody, all which have achieved bestseller status in digital sales. My newest novel, Atomica: Between Sea and Sky, was just released on August 27, 2024, and is the first book in a new young adult fantasy series.

Breaking Free

 

 


J.E. Maier mixes modern America with Korean drama in this genre-bending tale about love, destiny, and fame. 


Breaking Free

Rise of the Dragon Volume 1

by J.E. Maier

Genre: Romance, Drama, Light Urban Fantasy 


 

In her debut novel, J.E. Maier mixes Korean drama with modern America in this series about fate, love, and fame.

In this Romance-Drama turned Urban Fantasy, Jenilyn is a young woman caught in a perpetual state of duality. Of the world or not of the world, she has always struggled with opposing concepts. Equivalent to constructively organized chaos, she exists in two dimensions; an organized, put-together version she shows the world, and a chaotic, unhinged side she only shows those close to her.

In the aftermath of a messy divorce, she's staring down the crossroads of change and thinks she has the next chapter of her life all figured out. With ten years of unorthodox experience under her belt, she creates what she believes is the perfect business model, with plans to move the entire operation to Chicago in a matter of months.

The only thing she hasn't figured out? Dating in a technological world. She doesn't know if she wants to find love again, and with her native language on the verge of extinction, begins to think her late grandmother was right; she must cast aside the idea of love and contribute to the matriarchal lineage with a member from the quickly fading tribe. After all, if love isn't an option, folk preservation is the next best thing, even if she is only one-fourth indigenous.

Until a chance encounter changes her life's trajectory, that is. When the five zany members of an internationally famous musical group, Blackmirror, walk into her life, her world quickly gets turned upside down. Fascinated by the group's boyish charms at a time she's looking to experience the world, she's invited to attend their concert, where she learns just what it takes for the five mates to put on a large-production show. Unfortunately, the joyful moment is cut short when one of the musicians gets injured, and eager to help as always, she offers her assistance.

Her counterproductive helpfulness lands her in a meeting with the band's manager, who surprisingly asks her to join the agency, and following the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, she moves sixty-five hundred miles away from her home. With the fresh location comes a new job and a unique living situation, further pushing her boundaries and limitations. Hellbent on making memories and mistakes, she discards conventional notions and relishes a bit of calculated hedonism when a fake romance forces her into the spotlight.

While finding her footing at a new company, learning the nuances of a foreign culture, and tail spinning into the fringes of the entertainment industry, she finds herself embroiled in a cultural conspiracy and discovers her past might not be what it seemed.

Let’s not waste time falling in love. Let’s rise in love.

J.E. Maier has been dreaming up cinematic stories since she was a girl. With exuberance, she prowled the streets of her hometown, recounting her nightly visions to friends.

In adulthood, she utilized her artistry in the creative industry by getting her hands on any project she could. Unfortunately, Covid had a way of leveling the world, and while confined to her home, her imagination soared, leading her to what she believes is her calling.

Claire can’t remember a time when writing wasn’t part of her life. Growing up, she used to write stories with her friends. As a teenager she started out reading fantasy and science fiction, but her diet quickly changed to romance and happily-ever-after’s. A native of Massachusetts and cold weather, she left all that behind to move to the sun and fun of California, but has always lived no more than twenty miles from the ocean.

In college she studied acting with a minor in creative writing. In hindsight she should have flipped course studies. Before she was published, she sold books on eBay and discovered some of her favorite authors by sampling the goods, which was the perfect solution. Claire has many book-irons in the fire, most notably her urban fantasy series, The Elementals’ Challenge series, but writes contemporary and shifter romances as well as.

While she’s not a movie mogul or actor, she does work in the film industry with her office firmly situated in the 90210 district of Hollywood. Prone to breaking out into song, she is quick on feet and just as quick with snappy dialogue. In addition to writing she does animal rescue, reads, and goes to movies. She loves to hear from fans, so feel free to drop her a line.
