Here’s the set-up:

1486 A.D. – Fresh from his treacherous turning of the tides against Richard III in the Battle of Bosworth, Sir Gaston de Russe’s reputation is dark and dirty. Those loyal to Richard hate him and those loyal to Henry Tudor fear him. He is, after all, The Dark One.

In order to gain a strong foothold in Yorkshire, Henry sends Gaston to one of the largest fortresses in the north, a massive bastion called Mt. Holyoak Castle. Having formerly belonged to Sir Guy Stoneley, who is now a prisoner in the White Tower after his capture at Bosworth, the castle is still the home to Guy’s wife, Remington, her three sisters, and her son.

Gaston takes possession of Mt. Holyoak, pleased with his acquisition and intrigued with Lady Stoneley. Beautiful, somewhat shy and demure, Gaston soon comes to find out that Mt. Holyoak harbors a horrible secret of rape and abuse. Guy Stoneley abused his wife and sisters, so much so that the women look to Gaston as their savior for taking Mt. Holyoak from Guy. As Gaston struggles to administer the North and form alliances with those still loyal to Richard, something more is taking place that threatens to distract him from his task. The lure, the power, is more than he can resist.

A strong bond is forming between the knight believed to be the ultimate traitor and the lady who has known nothing but sorrow and horror. And with that realization, a delicate love story begins as two lonely people find solace and comfort with each other. Gaston soon realizes he loves Remington more than anything, which sets the stage for the biggest battle of his life: the fight against the Catholic Church in his quest for an annulment so he can marry her.

Join Gaston and Remington as they embark on an epic adventure of discovery, love, anguish and sorrow, defeat and victory. From the hills of Yorkshire to the halls of London, share their story of a lifetime where dreams become reality and true love really does conquer all.

TOO LITTLE, TOO LATE

by Marta Tandori

4.6 stars – 17 Reviews

Kindle Price: $2.99

Here’s the set-up:

A young runaway takes refuge in a makeshift shack under the Hollywood Freeway, forcing the autistic woman in it to find milk for her sickly newborn – a search that ultimately ends in tragedy when the woman is run down by a hit-and-run driver after a violent confrontation with several teenagers. When one of those teenagers, seventeen-year-old Karen Devane, is implicated in the woman’s homicide, the tabloids are quick to exploit the tragedy, thanks to Karen’s recent antics as a spoiled Tinseltown “celebrat” riding on the coattails of her famous grandmother, the legendary Kate Stanton. Complicating matters is the dead woman’s daughter, who’s determined that Karen be held accountable for her mother’s death, even after the charges against Karen are dropped. With tensions between Karen and her family near breaking point and the paparazzi relentlessly hounding her every move, Karen makes a startling discovery which finally puts her on the road to redemption – and links the dead woman to her beloved grandmother.

Karen’s discovery raises a host of troubling questions for Kate, forcing her to revisit the horrors of her past in search of answers. But Kate soon realizes that some questions are better left unasked after a seemingly random shooting leaves her granddaughter fighting for her life and Kate scrambling to stay one step ahead of a killer who’s determined to end her life in order to save his own.

Marta Tandori

Marta Tandori was born in the former Yugoslavia, but moved to Canada at a young age. By the time she reached fifth grade, she was an avid reader and writer with a stack of short stories collecting dust in a box under her bed but it wasn’t until she began studying acting in her early twenties at the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York that Marta realized acting wasn’t really her passion – writing fiction was.

At some point after getting married, having two children and working in a busy, downtown Toronto law firm, Marta found the time to take several writing workshops as well as correspondence courses through the Institute of Children’s Literature in Connecticut. She credits the award winning author, Troon Harrison, as the instructor who helped her find her literary voice. Marta’s first work of juvenile fiction, BEING SAM, NO MATTER WHAT was published in 2005, followed by EVERY WHICH WAY BUT KUKU! in 2006. With her more recent endeavors, Marta has shifted her writing focus to “women’s suspense”, a genre she fondly describes as stories having “strong female protagonists with lots of skeletons hidden in their closets and the odd murder or two to complicate their already complicated lives”.

Marta lives in a suburb of Toronto, Canada with her husband, one grown child and a menagerie of faithful family pets where she is currently at work on a new book.

The Survivors: Book One (Life After War)

by Angela White

185 Rave Reviews

Kindle Price: FREE!

Here’s the set-up for Angela White’s The Survivors: Book One (Life After War), FREE on Amazon Kindle:

“This is Safe Haven Refugee Camp. Can anyone hear me?
Hello? Is anyone out there?”

The end of the world has given us a harsh, merciless existence, where nature tries hard to push mankind to the very brink of extinction. Everything is against us, between us…

Untold miles of lawless, angry roads wait for our feet, and the Future, cold and dark, offers little comfort. Without CHANGE, there will be no peace. Only Survivors.

Fated to lead New America, seven special people survive the apocalypse, only to find themselves on an adventure that will shake the very core of who they thought they were. From dangerous trips into dark, decaying cities, to patriotic rescues and magic revelations, Life After War is an action-packed fantasy where those left must come to terms with their mistakes in the old world, while fighting for a place in the new one.

The Survivors: Book One. It’s the start of a new magic, fantasy, and horror series that Stephen King and Stephanie Meyer fans have been hoping for. This way, please…

The Survivors has been an Amazon bestseller in fantasy series, dark fantasy, science fiction adventure, and romance series, 29 consecutive weeks and sold more than 10,000 copies in its first year.

From the reviewers:

“Seven very gifted survivors are destined to rebuild their country after a nuclear apocalypse… If they can stay alive long enough to find each other. Impossible to put down. Set along the lines of The Stand and The Postman, this is a chilling vision of the collapse of all society and the rebirth of a nation by those who survived. So much more than just another fantasy quest.” -The Review Shop

I happen to be a nut for end of the world fiction, movies and books and this vision of the future is truely chilling. I loved it. It was so realistic! From the nuclear blasts to the way society simply collapsed. Great writing, very vivid. I could almost feel the sparks between the Mother an the Father and there’s a lot of action. Tornadoes, sand storms. Just a great read. Can’t wait to dig into book two, on the road. – Dave

I love post apocalyptic fiction and this one hit the spot! Well written, it combines some classic elements of the genre (a group of unlikely companions) with a gritty portrayal of what the leftovers of an apocalypse could look like. I enjoyed this a lot and look to read more of the series. – Adrian

The Survivors: Book One (Life After War) is like nothing I’ve read before. I’ve never been one for this genre. But here’s the truth, the structure is quickly overlooked once this book engages you, forcing you to regard the intense relatable circumstances. As I blazed through the final pages I had to ask myself. Can this really happen here?

I seldom ever pick up a book that forces me to do more than just google, but rather engage my friends and family to ask them, and myself what if? – Trisha Elizabeth

I was told a writer’s bio was mandatory if I wanted to be taken seriously as an Author. Despite wondering if that’s true (It’s the story that matters, right?) I dug in and this is what I came out with:

Hello,
I’m Angie. (Pen name)

Now that the pleasantries are out of the way, lets you and I take a little stroll. There’s a story I need to let out of its cage and I think it’s one you need to hear. It’s about the end of the world as we know it…

PS. Little pleases me more than to explore the dark fantasy and horror stories in my head. Knowing other people like them is second only to the magic of this new career I’ve chosen so feel free to drop me a line or post a review.

As a die-hard Cincinnatian, I much prefer writing to the stresses of being a city Taxicab dispatcher. Thank you for making my dreams possible and for looking at this page. I doubt many do.

Also:(This is NOT a 3 set series. I never said it would be done in three books. )

Aurora Sky: Vampire Hunter

by Nikki Jefford

4.3 stars – 49 Reviews

Kindle Price: 99 cents

Text-to-Speech and Lending: Enabled

Here’s the set-up:

*** On sale for 99 cents during blog tour and cover reveal for volume two, Northern Bites. Ends April 7th. ***

Her Blood is Toxic to Vampires

If there is one thing eighteen-year-old Aurora Sky wants, it’s to get off the iceberg she calls home. Being kissed before she graduates wouldn’t hurt either.

Then a near-fatal car wreck changes everything. Government agents step in and save Aurora’s life in exchange for her services as a vampire hunter. In Alaska. Basically she’s a glorified chew toy. All thanks to her rare blood type, which sends a vampire into temporary paralysis before she has to finish the job…by hand.

Now Aurora’s only friends are groupies of the undead and the only boy she can think about may very well be a vampire. And if he’s a vampire, will she be forced to kill him?

(Mature YA/New Adult. Contains mild language, violence, sexual situations…and blood sucking.)

Editorial Reviews

Review

“Full of action from the very first page, Aurora Sky is a book that will have the reader hanging onto every word, staying up late into the night to find out just what is going to happen next!” – Examiner.com

“It’s like a YA version of Night Huntress…” – Michelle’s Paranormal Vault

“Jefford holds back nothing on the virginity scene. It is the most realistic take on a girl ‘losing it’ that I’ve ever read in a book. So any virgins out there that want to know what it’s really like, read this book!” – Ginger-Read Reviews

“It was all the mystery and romance found in Twilight, except it was MUCH sexier, and all around…better. Way better. On top of that, it’s a slayer series, so if you are a geek like me who loved shows like Buffy, then this will be right up your alley. There’s action, blood, and violence, oh my.” – Author Rachael Wade

Alice in Deadland: The Complete Trilogy

Kindle Price: $0.99

Or currently FREE for Amazon Prime Members Via the Kindle Lending Library

Text-to-Speech: Enabled

Here’s the set-up:

Now also available – Hunting The Snark, the latest adventure in the Alice in Deadland series.

Alice in Deadland was released in November 2011 and quickly became an Amazon.com bestseller, selling more than 50,000 copies in its first three months. It was followed by its sequel, ‘Through The Looking Glass’ and ‘Off With Their Heads’, the prequel to Alice in Deadland. Now, get all three novels in the Alice in Deadland Trilogy in one single omnibus edition and immerse yourself in this bestselling adventure.

Alice in Deadland

Civilization as we know it ended more than fifteen years ago, leaving as it’s legacy barren wastelands called the Deadland and a new terror for the humans who survived- hordes of undead Biters.

Fifteen year-old Alice has spent her entire life in the Deadland, her education consisting of how best to use guns and knives in the ongoing war for survival against the Biters. One day, Alice spots a Biter disappearing into a hole in the ground and follows it, in search of fabled underground Biter bases.

What Alice discovers there propels her into an action-packed adventure that changes her life and that of all humans in the Deadland forever. An adventure where she learns the terrible conspiracy behind the ruin of humanity, the truth behind the origin of the Biters, and the prophecy the mysterious Biter Queen believes Alice is destined to fulfill.

A prophecy based on the charred remains of the last book in the Deadland- a book called Alice in Wonderland.

Through The Looking Glass: Alice in Deadland Book II

More than two years have passed since Alice followed a Biter with bunny ears down a hole, triggering events that forever changed her life and that of everyone in the Deadland. The Red Guards have been fought to a standstill; Alice has restored some measure of peace between humans and Biters; and under Alice, humans have laid the foundations of the first large, organized community since The Rising- a city called Wonderland.

That peace is shattered in a series of vicious Biter attacks and Alice finds herself shunned by the very people she helped liberate. Now she must re-enter the Deadland to unravel this new conspiracy that threatens Wonderland. Doing so will mean coming face to face with her most deadly adversary ever- the Red Queen.

Off With Their Heads: The Prequel to Alice in Deadland

A few months before Alice was born and fifteen years before the dramatic events depicted in Alice in Deadland, there was The Rising. A few days that destroyed human civilization as we know it, reducing much of the world to a radioactive wasteland teeming with hordes of undead Biters and controlled by a shadowy Central Committee.

Off With Their Heads brings to life the final harrowing days of The Rising through four shorts, each depicting events through the eyes of one pivotal character in the Alice in Deadland series. See how Dr. Protima became the Queen of the Biters; feel the pain of a young man’s sacrifice as he becomes the bunny-eared Biter whom Alice later follows down a hole; follow the rise of Chen from a conflicted young Chinese Army officer to a General in the Red Guards; and finally share in the dramatic escape of Alice’s parents from a city overrun by Biters.
