Here’s the set-up…

FBI agent Nick Bracco can’t stop a Kurdish terrorist from firing missiles at random homes across the country. The police can’t stand watch over every household, so Bracco recruits his cousin Tommy to help track down this terrorist. Tommy is in the Mafia. Oh yeah, it gets messy fast. As fast as you can turn the pages. 
The reviewers are raving about it…
“Gary Ponzo is simply the best new thriller writer out there.”
–Judith L. Pearson, author of Wolves at the Door and Belly of the Beast


“Author Gary Ponzo has dashed off a fast-paced political thriller with the skill of a Tom Clancy or Ludlum. Loved the characters and the relationships and the insights into the world of counter-terrorism. Great book. Couldn’t put it down and now I want more. Bravo.”
–Stephen Carpenter, author of Killer

A Touch of Deceit” is a cleverly written thriller with plenty of twists and turns, action, and strong dialogue to keep you turning the pages well into the night. The characters show strength and depth. The plot moves quickly, leaving the reader to want more. The dialogue is direct and well written. Gary Ponzo is an author that everyone should add to their reading list. I highly recommend for thriller, suspense, and mystery fans.”
–Jennifer Chase, author of Dead Game & Compulsion

About the Author

Author Gary Ponzo began his writing career over a decade ago by writing short stories. He quickly discovered a knack for the short form. In just five years he’d published seven short stories in various publications, two of which were nominated for the very prestigious Pushcart Prize. 

His first novel, A Touch of Deceit, took five years to write and one to pick clean. The story was born from his childhood experiences working in his father’s candy store in Brooklyn, NY. His father was Sicilian and became friendly with some local members of a different kind of Sicilian family. Since Gary was just fifteen at the time, these family members would make sure he was protected whenever he would work late at night by himself. He soon discovered a side to the mafia not many people knew. It was these relationships which caused him to write about Sicilian FBI agent, Nick Bracco, who recruits his mafia cousin to chase down the world’s most feared terrorist.


A Touch of Deceit went on to win the 2009 Southwest Writers Novel Contest, Thriller category. He is working on the sequel to the novel as well as continuing to publish his short stories. Gary currently lives in Phoenix, Arizona with his wife Jennifer and two children, Jessica and Kyle.

Kindle Nation Daily Free Book Alert, Thursday, March 10: Dozens of Brand New Freebies Added in the Last 24 Hours! plus … Judith Arnold’s Cry Uncle, a story of love, fear, and invented identity (Today’s Sponsor)

 
With a hodge-podge of over 40 brand-new additions to this morning’s freshly updated presentation of over 250 Free Book Alert listings, it may take a bit more hunting and clicking to make sure you get the books you want in the language you want, so we’ve moved a James Patterson preview, Debbie Mayne’s Sweet Baklava, and an Aimee Leduc companion to the top of the list….

But first, a word from … Today’s Sponsor
 
 
From the award-winning novelist Judith Arnold, a story of fear, love and made-up identities. Pamela Hayes, a Seattle architect, is on the run from a hit man. Jonas Brenner, a Key West bar owner, needs a convincing wife to help him in a custody battle. Will this be a marriage of inconvenience?
 

“Judith Arnold is a perennial favorite whose keen wit and way with mystery always hits the mark.”—RT Book Reviews

CRY UNCLE
by Judith Arnold

Here’s the set-up:
After witnessing a professional hit, Seattle architect Pamela Hayes has testified in court against the hit man. Unfortunately, a mistrial is declared and the hit man is released on bail while awaiting a new trial. He intends to silence the sole witness to murder—Pam—before that new trial begins. She needs to hide, and she runs as far as she can: to steamy Key West., Florida.


What RT Book Reviews Says

Jonas Brenner, a Key West bar owner and easy-going slacker, is about to lose custody of his orphaned five-year-old niece—unless he can convince the courts that he’s a responsible father. What he needs is a prim and proper wife who will create the illusion that Lizard, as his niece likes to be called, is being raised in a stable environment.

What Pam needs is a new identity. Joe offers her a deal: if she marries him and takes his name, no Pacific Northwest hit man is going to find her. In return, she can pose as Joe’s respectable wife, dutifully caring for the rambunctious, feather-wearing Lizard.

Of course, this will be a marriage in name only. No sex. No emotions. No love. Which, once Pam and Joe move in together and the sparks begin to fly, is easier said than done.

CRY UNCLE was originally published by Harlequin Books.  

“When a classy architect joins in a marriage of convenience with a slightly scruffy bartender to hide from a hit man out to kill her, frustration runs high, making both want to CRY UNCLE and get on with the loving. Judith Arnold is a perennial favorite whose keen wit and way with mystery always hits the mark.”

But first, a word from … Today’s Sponsor

“My name is Darcy Anderson, and I am cursed with a dark power: Whenever my life is in danger, something inside me summons elemental fire to protect me. I cannot control this.”


Darcy Anderson has an uncontrollable dark power that reacts to deadly threats with lethal fire. This inner blaze is so powerful that it burned down Anderson’s house with her parents inside….

Very Real Fantasy”



Here’s the set-up:

The first of five novels in the Fallen Angels saga:

My name is Darcy Anderson, and I am cursed with a dark power: Whenever my life is in danger, something inside me summons elemental fire to protect me. I cannot control this.

One night, I was attacked in my home. The fire … it raged out of control. I survived the inferno, but my house burned to the ground – with my parents inside.

I was at a loss to explain to the courts what happened, and so they sent me to prison for ten years for manslaughter.

Now I’m out on parole, and all I want is to return to my home town and rebuild my life; but the man who attacked me is back to finish the job he started.

I can sense the power in me growing. If I can’t control it, it will control me and destroy everything – and everyone – I love.

BONUS MATERIAL:
Included is an excerpt of “The Gods of Dream” by fantasy author Daniel Arenson


What the Reviewers Say
“If you’re looking for a down-to-earth, realistic story of what could happen to someone with the inexplicable ability to call up fire (but not the ability to control it), this is a good read.”
–Tammi Rapp


“Valmore Daniels has written a complex and well-rounded character in Darcy Anderson, a woman who can set fire to things telepathically. The book opens with her leaving prison after doing 10 years for killing her parents in a fire which she accidentally started. The rest of the book focuses on Darcy coming to terms not only with what she did and her strange “affliction” but also the trials and tribulations of returning to her hometown where she’s essentially an outcast… I highly recommend this book. The Fallen Angels series is going to be terrific if this first book is any indication.”
–C J Archer


“This could be any family, yours, mine or a family down the street. Their history, their conflicts, their feelings, wants and needs are very real. One of the things that draw me to the urban fantasy genre is both having a human story along with fantastic elements, and I felt this story did that for me. I’m really looking forward to the next four books.”
–Susan S

As Interesting as it is Frightening”

Here’s the set-up:
Energy executive Lynn Dayton thinks her challenge is fixing the troubled Houston refinery her company just bought. But she discovers she must save it, and hundreds of people in nearby Ship Channel plants, from injuries and deaths directed by a French saboteur. Simultaneously, she fights off threats to her own life. As Lynn deals with chemical leaks, disloyal employees, a new season of hurricanes, and mounting casualties, corrupted idealist Robert Guillard plans to manipulate her through her vulnerable sister. But Robert underestimates his prey…  

What the Reviewers Say
“13 Days has an excellent plot….L.A. Starks has contributed a fine murder mystery to the genre.” 
Alan Paul Curtis, Who-dunnit.com


“A knock-down conspiracy exposing the darkest secrets of the oil industry. Starks has made an impressive debut….”  
— Michael Lucker, Screenwriter, Vampire In Brooklyn, Mulan II


“We never seem to learn. No matter the price of gasoline we just keep on truckin’. L. A. Stark was inspired by our gluttony to pen 13 Days. 13 Days takes readers on a fast paced ride into the world of petroleum. I would describe this book as espionage, thriller, suspense and entertaining. The quality of the plot and character make it difficult to believe this is a debut novel. The characterization is exquisite. The plot is exciting and informative.:

Cool spy novel”



Here’s the set-up:

Meet Alexis Stanton, a 5′ 4″ petite young woman with a yen for adventure. She grew up as a tomboy wishing she could have all the adventures boys could have. She has since decided that being a boy instead of a girl has its advantages, but being a woman is much better. Raised in a family with money, she was able to pick and choose her education. She had been schooled in everything from being a lady to courses with Special Forces instructors. Her desire for adventure and her boredom with her current employment and a strange ‘HELP WANTED’ ad causes her to quit. She finds that job she could “just die for”… and it looks like she just might!

What the Reviewers Say
“Move over James Bond, there’s a new secret agent hitting the scene. Petite and polished Alexis Stanton hardly seems the type, but raised in a family that gave etiquette equal time with special ops training, she proves she’s not one to be underestimated.”
L. Guerrero

“This is an exciting story of a girl looking for adventure. When she applies for a mysterious job, she gets a little more adventure than she bargained for. I found this story exciting from beginning to end. The attention to detail was refreshing; not too wordy. I enjoyed tagging along on Alex’s adventures and look forward to continuing them in Shades of Grey.”
–Dawn Judd

I’d like to be Alexis Stanton for a day!” –Lynn Fullmer

About the Author

J.C. Phelps has been writing since she can remember. But The Alexis Stanton Chronicles have been the most enjoyable works she’s written. Color Me Grey, the first book in the series, introduces the characters she has come to love. Shades of Grey and Reflections of Grey continue with the same characters and were equally as fun to write.

J.C. is considering another in the Alexis Stanton Chronicles, but is currently working on a couple other different stories to put to paper.

I loved this book! – Great suspense, tight writing, interesting plot, excellent character development.
–Stacy L. Daniels



Here’s the set-up:

When reality TV turns to murder, it’s sink, swim or die. Ambitious personal trainer Cassidy Novak has gained national fame for starring on Sink or Swim, nicknamed SOS, a hit reality game show set aboard a Tall Ship. She hopes the prize money will help to launch her dream of owning a chain of fitness centers. Not only does she lose the competition and have to walk the plank in the finale, after the game show ends, the terror begins. Upon returning to her small Massachusetts hometown, Cassidy discovers she has attracted a stalker masterminding his own twisted game. She struggles to focus on her health club job and celebrity endorsement opportunities, but her stalker has other plans. As her former competitors get knocked off one-by-one, Cassidy refuses to play by his bizarre rules. She’s also being shadowed by hunky photographer Zach Gallagher, who has been assigned to capture her personal moments for a spread in the local newspaper. She wants to trust Zach, but fears he may not be the nice guy that he seems. With or without Zach’s help, when the stalker forces a showdown by threatening her family, Cassidy must once again walk the plank – this time for her life.


Kindle edition includes bonus excerpts from authors Darcia Helle and Maria Savva, and a sample chapter of Stacy Juba’s mystery novel Twenty-Five Years Ago Today.

What the Reviewers Say
Sink or Swim was an easy read and extremely well written… I would love to see it come out as a movie one day!”
–Stephenie LaGrossa, former contestant Survivor: Palau, Guatemala, Heroes vs. Villains

With Sink or Swim, Stacy Juba takes a look at our reality TV craze. Whether you enjoy reality shows or not, it’s hard to miss the famous and the infamous that these shows create. Sink or Swim takes us behind the scenes and shows us what happens after the cameras have stopped filming.”
–BookAddict

As with the first book, 25 Years Ago Today, I could not put this book down until the end. Well written with real characters that come alive as the story unfolds. Just how paranoid can you get when you know you have a stalker? How can anything be normal in every day life? Considering I got the stalker wrong, you’ll be surprised at the twists and turns that will make you second guess the identity of the stalker. Again, I highly recommend this book to everyone out there who enjoys a good mystery.”
–Fettwolf

This Week’s Kindle Nation Sponsor, Novelist Deb Hosey White, Moves To Second Round of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Contest

In another case of sweet serendipity, it turns out that a new novel by this week’s sponsor for Kindle Nation’s free weekly email newsletter — Deb Hosey White, author of Pink Slips and Parting Gifts — has just been selected to advance to the second round of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Contest. We asked Ms. White to submit a piece explaining how it all works, and she came through very nicely for us:

 
 
If you haven’t yet discovered the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards (ABNA), now’s your chance. Writers from around the world enter this contest, but what makes ABNA unique is the quality of the contenders and the camaraderie among contestants.
 
In the same spirit of shared experience offered by Amazon and Kindle Nation, the ABNA reflects a writing community interested in helping their peers. As the entry deadline approaches, the buzz on the ABNA message boards is all about writing a good pitch, editing excerpts, and guiding contest newcomers on the rules of the competition. Since the contest was conceived four years ago, the ABNA community boards have become a forum for sharing literary experiences and resources, peppered with humor, personal interest, and some clever writing. Amazon, CreateSpace, Penguin Group USA and Publishers Weekly collectively sponsor the ABNA.
 

With 10,000 entries, it’s great news that my novel Tales of the Sofa has made the cut and advanced to ABNA’s second round.

What happens next?
Between now and March 22, Amazon Vine Reviewers play an important role by reviewing the top general fiction and young adult novel excerpts to determine the contest’s quarter-finalists.
Then the real fun begins for Amazon readers.
Once the quarter-finalists are announced at www.amazon.com/abna Amazon customers can download, rate and review ABNA contest excerpts, providing feedback to Penguin editors about submissions. Finalists are announced in June.

If you decide to take a look, you’ll find more great reads from an amazingly diverse group of writers – there’s definitely something for everyone.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy Pink Slips and Parting Gifts, which you might say has been mutually selected by Steve Windwalker and myself to serve as the sponsor of this week’s issue of Kindle Nation’s weekly blast!
