His muscular body turned my way, and he crossed the room in a few decisive steps.  I noticed with a startling sense of awe that his eye color had changed.  Instead of the crystal-blue hue that I had seen time after time, even in my dreams, his eyes were brilliantly silver and the dark brows arching defiantly over them were creased with tension.  He grasped one of my hands, pulled it towards him, and turned it over.
“Michael…”  I breathed his name like a prayer.
I watched, disbelievingly, as he pressed a fiery kiss into the palm of my hand.  I had never before felt the alarming sensation of Michael’s lips on my flesh.  It was a moment I would not soon forget.  Every other sensation in my body ground to a sudden halt when I felt the warmth of his lips.  It seemed as if every other part of my body had gone numb with the shock of it.  But the palm of my hand was burning.  It was a rolling heat that made me gasp.
When I raised my head to look at him, all I saw was a blur of motion.  He had moved so fast that I had barely realized he was leaving.  I heard the backdoor open and the screen door squeak as he passed through to the back yard.  Then a terribly cold silence fell over the room.

Eileen Schuh’s compelling debut novel THE TRAZ confronts young readers with life’s complicated and unsettling issues, but it also provides a guide to help illuminate these challenges – 12 straight rave reviews, just $2.99 on Kindle

THE TRAZ, a newly released YA novel, is as daring, raw, and spirited as its young heroine. It’s exhilarating entertainment but it also contains a vital message for those on the cusp of maturity and for the adults who guide them. All lessons all deeply woven into the fast-paced action, the superlative characterizations, and the inter-generational relationships that make this book a page-turner.
Eileen Schuh

Eileen Schuh’s debut novel has received multiple 5-star ratings and been honored with superlative reviews from several top authors. THE TRAZ has garnered a 4.8-star rating on 12 straight rave reviews and is currently available on Kindle for just $2.99.

Katrina is thirteen, an orphan, grieving and alone. But she is more than that. She’s intelligent, beautiful, wealthy, and intrigued by the dangers of street life.

Shrug’s a giant of a man with a voice of thunder and eyes of granite. He has tattoos, a leather jacket with The Traz gang patch, and a motorbike. When he asks Katrina if she wants a ride, she makes a decision that will change her life forever.

Katrina quickly discovers the violent and horrifying side of life on The Traz compound. But there is no way for her to escape until she meets Chad—an undercover cop with rich brown eyes, a gentle chuckle, and a plan to get Katrina safely out of the clutches of the gang.

However, there’s a problem…somebody is keeping dangerous secrets from them both.

Praise for THE TRAZ

“The Traz is well written and beautifully set up. The author definitely has a plan for the whole series, and it’s gonna be good.” ―Michelle Latiolais, Reading Lark Reviews

“Schuh creates complex characters and raw dialogue. This is a fast paced novel where redemption is found on the saddle of a Harley.” –Garry Ryan, author of the Detective Lane mysteries.

“Raw and emotional with fast-paced, gripping tension, The Traz is a must-read for tweens, teens and parents.”―Cheryl Kaye Tardif, bestselling author of Children of the Fog

“5-stars! Check out this dangerous ride today…I highly-recommend this book.” ―Donna Carrick, award-winning author of The First Excellence

Schuh’s young readers do not have to face life’s complicated and unsettling issues alone. THE TRAZ is released with a Teaching Guide to give youngsters, parents, educators, law enforcers, and other community leaders an opportunity to discuss and explore the darkness that at-risk teens are both facing and fleeing.

Think “Huck Finn meets Kerouac meets Catch-22 against the backdrop of a 60s haze” and you might be ready for George O’Har’s humorous 5-star road novel THE THOUSAND HOUR CLUB

The Thousand Hour Club
by George O’Har

4.8 Stars – 16 Reviews – Just $6.99 on Kindle!

Isn’t it time you found out what’s behind 16 straight rave reviews on Kindle?

Captivating Read (Ruth Douillette, Amazon Review)

The Thousand Hour Club hits the ground fast and hard. Our intro to Tom Betz is when he witnesses the murder of his best friend Albert in a sleazy New York park. Experience and cowardice—or is it street smarts?—push Tom to run off. He tells no one what he saw, even when the body is discovered and Albert’s sister in her grief accuses him of murder. It’s not Tom’s finest hour, but it’s his wake-up call.

Tom is a college drop out with a dead-end Dairy Queen job and no sense of purpose. The hovering shadow of Albert’s murder consumes him waking and sleeping, filling him with such anxiety that when he gets his draft notice, it seems “like a get out of jail free card.” Viet Nam war be damned, he joins the Air Force. Tom is forced to mature as he maneuvers through basic training and gets his assignment, which eventually leads him to Greece…

This is Tom’s tale. He tells it with a self-deprecating wit and intelligence that belies his deceptive naiveté. And if Tom is one who takes life as it comes and adapts to it, rather than steering his own course, this works from him—as it does for most of us. He may not be a mover and a shaker, but he’s a survivor, and wiser in the end than even he realizes. O’Har creates a complex character in Betz. It would be nice to meet him again in a future book.

Thanks All Around (Sally, Amazon Review)

…special thanks to George O’Har who wrote what I already know will be prominently featured on my 10 Best of the Year list of books for 2011. I don’t know if O’Har himself lived all of Tom’s adventures or not, I suspect at least some of them are true-to-life, but either way I think there is a Tom Betz in the world right now and he did live this life and he’s still living it and I want to know more. I want to know what he did next.

Guest Kindle Nation Post: Experience Overwhelming Relief with THE BOOK OF AWFUL, by Romi Moondi

Guest Post by Romi Moondi

Once upon a time I was sad.
Then came “The Book of Awesome” by Neil Pasricha , which tries to make people feel glad.
This manufactured “happy” made me mad.
So I rebelled.
And that’s why The Book of Awful is available on Amazon.
This parody goes through one dreadful (and ridiculous) scenario after the next, to remind you how much worse life could really be.
Head lice is mentioned.
And deceitful online dating.
As well as nose hair if it grew to unlimited lengths.
Truly terrible things.

To cover off a vast array of concerns, the book is sectioned off into highly relevant topics for mankind (world issues, stalking, dating and romance, etc.). Sprinkled throughout are celebrity and pop culture references you may find relatable.
Most of all, I want to open your eyes to awful things you were completely unaware of, like… what we’d do if legal tender was switched to shrunken monkey heads, rendering all attempts at making counterfeit money unsuccessful. Or…what a challenge it would be to self-cuddle, if body pillows never existed.

By the end you won’t feel “awesome”…but overwhelming relief?

Highly probable.

The Book of Awful is available on Kindle Amazon US/UK/DE, at the low price of 99 CENTS for the summer.
To find out more about me you can visit my author page on Amazon and follow me on Twitter. Tweet-wise, I live by the following philosophy:

  • I DON’T tweet about my book, unless I’m re-tweeting someone else’s mention (which is a few times a week, max).
  • I DO have awkward run-ins in society that I tweet about…as well as my generally weird internal monologue. It’s a fun time.

It may not surprise Kindle Nation readers that here at Kindle Nation we’re suckers for a contest, a sweepstakes, and we’re especially interested when there’s some originality involved! So it is in that spirit that we present this post from Melodie Campbell, author of Rowena Through the Wall:


“WHAT’S BEHIND YOUR WALL?”  CONTEST!



Win Two Free Kindle eBooks!  Details below.


Celebrate your summer escape with the perfect Beach Book,

Rowena Through the Wall

by Melodie Campbell

(Imajin Books)

On sale for $2.99!  Limited time offer.

“Hot and hilarious!”  Midwest Book Review

“Jack Sparrow meets Stephanie Plum” Former editor, Distant Suns

“I couldn’t put this one down!”  Allbooks Review

 

When Rowena falls through her classroom wall into a medieval world, she doesn’t count on being kidnapped – not once but twice, dammit – and the stakes get higher as the men get hotter. Unwanted husbands keep piling up; not only that, she has eighteen-year-old Kendra to look out for and a war to prevent.  Good thing she can go back through the wall…or can she?

“Thus begins one of the most fabulous fantasy adventures I’ve ever read.” Midwest Book Review.

An excerpt from the novel:

I jabbed a finger into Thane’s chest.  ‘I’ve read more battle strategy than the whole freaking lot of you.  I can shoot a gun as well as any man.  And I can do it from horseback.  So don’t give me any chauvinist crap about being a woman.”

More mumbling again.

Maybe it was the word’ gun,’ or maybe I lost them all at ‘chauvinist,’ I don’t know.  Get a dictionary, people.

“Perhaps these times haven’t happened yet in our world,” Thane said gently.

He reached out but I backed away.

“No!”  I said, furious.  “This is too much.  Where is the rule book here?  I need to see a job description.  What is the point of being queen in this piss-poor world, if it doesn’t come with any power?”

“Filled with brutal, sword-swinging danger, yet sexy and funny, you’ll be rooting for Row as she uses her head to stay alive, and her heart to find love.”  Kelsey Lewis, author of Hot and Bothered

Libby Fischer Hellmann’s ELLIE FOREMAN Mystery Series on Kindle: Think “Desperate Housewives meets 24

What do you get when you cross “Desperate Housewives” and “24?”



You get the Ellie Foreman mystery series, written by Libby Fischer Hellmann, an author with seven novels and over 18 short stories to her name.

Ellie Foreman, a single mother and video producer lives in the Chicago suburbs. She has a teenage daughter, a senior citizen father, and an ex-husband who shows up at the most inconvenient times. Fortunately, her dry sense of humor, her best friend Susan, and an occasional bottle of wine help get her through life’s bumps.

But Ellie also has a sharply-honed sense of fair play and justice, and those traits usually get her into trouble, especially when she runs afoul of neo-Nazis, the Russian mob, or scions of rich Chicago robber-barons. Make no mistake: the Ellie Foreman books are novels of suspense. In fact, most reviewers call them mystery-thrillers.

The four-book series has won multiple awards:

What reviewers say about the series

  • “A masterful blend of politics, history, and suspense “—Publishers Weekly
  • “Hellmann knows what people are willing to die for and that knowledge makes her work shine.”—Chicago Tribune
  • “Highly recommended, even if you don’t live in Illinois…”—Chicago Sun-Times
  • “Ellie’s completely believable, because Hellmann writes believable. Her dialogue works… her characters, and her plot, even when unfamiliar or a little out-of-the-ordinary, are plausible.”— I Love A Mystery
  • “Excellent dialogue, intriguing relationships, and good descriptions… I love Ellie’s down-to-earth attitude… a credit to the series.”—Mystery News

Libby Fischer Hellmann is the author of SET THE NIGHT ON FIRE, a stand alone thriller which has been very popular with the citizens of Kindle Nation. She also writes the Ellie Foreman and Georgia Davis mystery series, and the two-volume short story collection, Nice Girl Does Noir. She also edited the highly praised crime fiction anthology, Chicago Blues. She has lived in the Chicago area over thirty years.

So if you’re in the mood for an established author who delivers a great mystery, the Ellie Foreman books are for you. Best of all, prices on all four Ellie books have just come down to $2.99 each.
