Kate
thought she’d never unlock her powers—let alone trigger them by
creating a familiar out of a cross-eyed pigeon.
Before
she can celebrate the good news, a terrifying bounty hunter kidnaps
her mother. In a race against time to save her mother,
Kate runs afoul of a dragon, and even worse, the most feared
creatures in existence—the dreaded forest gnomes. To top it all
off, she discovers long-lost magical family members who maybe should
have stayed lost. Kate is finally a witch—but it just might kill
her.
If
you like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Veronica Mars and iZombie, you’ll
be rooting for this strong, snarky teen girl on every page.

living as a fortune teller, and your best friend is a middle-aged
sari vendor, weird is relative.
Fifteen-year-old
Kate Roark desperately wants to be a witch but isn't - yet. It's not
likely at her age until she meets the Fortune Taker and gets a taste
of unimaginable power - but at what cost?
Forced
to choose between keeping stolen power or making her magic dreams
come true, her ultimate decision throws her entire world into
question.

Binding with and the Fortune Taker is the first in the Kate Roark
Magic Series from emerging YA fantasy writer, Laura Rich.

project manager. Magic may be involved in pulling all this off.
An
unforgettable tale brimming with suspense, action and
dragons."- Through the Ashes will thrill

is a poor fae who works on a farm outside the protections of the

their fair share and owe the world nothing more.
But when the
dark elves infect his city with a virus unlike anything he's ever
seen, he knows they need a solution. Now.

Bobby Hastings witnesses an atomic explosion near a top secret New
Mexico army base in July of 1945. Terrified,

that rivals the blast for drama. A girl his age stands naked at the
side of the lonely desert road: underweight, unwell, and speaking
with a German accent. In the coming days, she unveils an impossible
story about time travel and a heartbreaking outcome of the war. She
begs people to believe her warning and prevent the awful future she
claims to know too well. But even if they do believe her, and the
story is true, the biggest question remains: can history be undone?

ROAD, was first published in March 2010. A revised digital edition
was published in February 2017. Enjoy! When he's not sitting in a
coffee shop writing, or at a school or library or conference talking
about writing, or out on the running trail thinking about writing,
he's at home in Woodinville, Washington with his wife Judy, a junior
high librarian.
With six babies, a senior in High School and another
pregnancy for the Blackthorne/Hopkins Clan, it should be enough.
Now
there are business expansions, wedding plans, and Justin and Fallon

one. This group is in for on hell of a Fall.

what happens when the family you’ve come to rely on, must go on
with their own lives? Alone with babies and a recovering wife can
Justin handle all that fatherhood has in store for him? Can
Fallon overcome the lingering effects of her delivery? This was
supposed to be the happiest time of their lives, but when a curve
ball comes this pair will always swing for the fences. Will it be a
home run or a foul tip?
You
can take the girl out of the country but can you take the country out
of the girl? In just four short months Justin Blackthorne has
become a fixture in the Hopkins Kentucky household. With the holidays
upon them he wants nothing more than to get Fallon away from everyone

romantic plans… When word gets to Justin’s family he’s come
home, all bets are off and he will have no choice but to take the
whole motley crew to the house he’s spent years trying to
forget.
Fallon
Hopkins is a good country girl. She’s twenty-three, and spends her
time taking care of her family, the Farm and going to the Local
Farmer’s Markets to sell her sweet confections. This leaves little
room for anything else. Her life is happy if not a little
boring.
Justin Blackthorne is a New York City transplant,
having come to Kentucky to dislodge the silver spoon from his foul
mouth. He’s seems like a party boy, covered in tattoos, and
piercings, with a life style to match.
Enter Joseph Hopkins
Fallon’s meddling father, after meeting Justin he decides the boy
may just be the thing to get his daughter out of the farm house and
into the real world. Enlisting the aid of his youngest son Peter they

and more to fight for. Can they conquer the bonds of family or will
it all just be Stolen Moments?

Sandy
Toes
by Kim Deister
Two lives turned upside down.
Two big secrets. One steamy vacation in the Hawaiian islands. Will
Ireland and Sully find what they want most in each other?
Ireland
needed a break. It had been a rough year and she needed a fresh
start. Her coven was embroiled in a civil war and when she refused to
fall in line with the rest of them, she was kicked to the curb. By
her friends, by her family, even by her boyfriend. She'd moved past
the grief stage, even past the anger stage. For the first time in her
life, she was free to do what she wanted. She had no one's
expectations to fill but her own. So, she decided to celebrate. She
bought herself a three-week vacation to Hawaii. No responsibilities.
Just fun in the sun and time to figure out what was next for
her.
When Sully brought home two tickets to Hawaii, he thought
Kallie would be thrilled. He'd envisioned three idyllic weeks on a
tropical island. Swimming in the ocean, laying on the beach, catching
a few waves, and eating in world class restaurants. But within an
hour, he found himself holding an extra ticket as he watched Kallie
put the last of her bags in another man's truck. He'd torn up that
ticket and flushed the pieces down the toilet. But he still had every
intention of using that other ticket. Maybe some time alone was
exactly what he needed.
Awakening
by Nicole
Banks
Both dead on the inside, until a spark ignited a fire
they couldn’t outrun. Will they be able to withstand the heat or
will they get burned by their flames?
The most sought
after hired gun. She’s ruthless, but even killers need a vacation.
He’s being hunted and there’s only one warrior strong enough to
keep him alive. A king whose seeking protection and a killer
searching for peace, but in each other they find so much more. When
survival instincts kick in, so do their primitive instincts. This
summer won’t be the only thing heating up.

treasure. When I am not writing, I enjoy going to cruises, concerts,
eating white peaches, pistachio ice cream, and sipping margaritas.
I
have been reading the romance and suspense genre since I was a young
girl. I always dreamed of writing paranormal tales that are full of
love, incredible sexy wild men, mysterious realms, and a dash of
suspense.
I
love writing in the paranormal genre because of the limitless range
of characteristics, powers, and weaknesses available to develop the
characters' and realms. I love sexy angels, gods, vampires,
werewolves, dragons, and other entities.

P. Uvalle
is a beautifully twisted soul who has a passion for writing
paranormal romance and has the divine ability to make the
unbelievable, believable. She was born and raised in Colorado
Springs, went to Bel-Rea Institute of Animal Technology and graduated
with an Associate's degree in Applied Science and Technology. J. P.
Uvalle works part-time as an ICU technician in Highlands Ranch,
Colorado at an emergency/specialty hospital. When not at work, she's
spending time with family and friends.
My
name is Kim
and my last name, Deister,
is pronounced “Die-ster.” I always tell my husband I should have
kept my married name, Ingram. So much easier to to pronounce!
I
am a writer thoroughly in love with words. Reading them, writing
them… I love that words can take you outside of your world and let
the unimaginable become imaginable. I love them so much that I
decided I needed to create some worlds and stories of my own!
Besides
being a writer, I am an Army veteran (and Army wife) and a mom to
four sons. I grew up in northern New York in a tiny college town
called Potsdam. Over the years, our Army life has taken us all over
the place and I have been lucky enough to work and live in some
pretty amazing places. Right now we live in Hawaii on the island of
O’ahu, minutes from the North Shore.
Creatively
living through music, writing and yoga.
I
love the arts and how they move you and make you feel.
Reading
has always been a great love of mine right after my love of music.
Each song written is a story waiting to be told. Which, along with my
over active imagination fueled my desire to write about the chaos
that goes on in my head.
I
love stringing words together. I love making people get lost in a
story and connecting with fictional characters that remind them of
someone they know.
I
published my first book Shattered in 2013. It’s the first
installment in the Shattered Hearts Series. Shattered started out as
an assignment for a college course I took at John Jay College of
Criminal Justice. After I graduated college I went through my old
papers and reconnected with the story morphing into so much more then
what I wrote in my college course.
Now
you can find me doing yoga, listening to music and working on getting
out all the stories in my head, including dabbling in poetry. (Which
I've always had a secret love affair with).
