Here’s a new release from Kindle Nation fave and NY Times bestselling novelist Victorine Lieske: THE OVERTAKING

by

On sale now for only $.99 in the Kindle Store:

The Overtaking, a new release from New York Times bestselling author Victorine E. Lieske.

High school senior Shayne Bartlet has been kidnapped, his powers disabled and his memory altered. He’s having a bad day…and he doesn’t even know it.

Shayne thinks he’s a typical teenager at a college prep boarding school on Earth. He couldn’t be more wrong. The girl he likes is keeping secrets–which doesn’t work too well when Shayne begins to hear her thoughts.

Danielle knows she can’t fall for Shayne. It would never work out between them. For one thing, she’s lying to him about who she is. She’s responsible for his kidnapping. That tends to cramp a relationship. Besides, she’s leaving his planet in a few weeks.

At least, that was the plan…

The Overtaking is a sweet romance, appropriate for all ages.


Also $.99 from Victorine E. Lieske, New York Times bestseller Not What She Seems, a romantic suspense.

And The Practice Date, a young adult romance.

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

by

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

by

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.

Win Free Kindle eBooks in Author Melodie Campbell’s “WHAT’S BEHIND YOUR WALL?” CONTEST!

by

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

What’s Behind YOUR Wall Contest!

Everyone needs a little escape.

Tell us what is behind YOUR wall, for a chance to win two ebooks from Imajin books!

Deadline, July 31.

Details on Melodie’s comic blog, http://funnygirlmelodie.blogspot.com/2011/07/whats-behind-your-wall.html

About the author…
Melodie Campbell got her start writing comedy, so it’s no surprise that editors have called her fiction ‘wacky’ and ‘laugh-out-loud funny’.  She has over 200 publications and has won 5 awards for fiction.

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

by

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.

With Kailin Gow’s BITTER FROST on Kindle, Our Motto is “Be Prepared” … for a Great Character, a Great Read, and a Cliffhanger Ending That May Drive You to Keep Right on Reading!

by
Are you ready* for Bitter Frost, the first book in the popular, award-winning Frost Series by Kailin Gow?
Be prepared to meet a young woman you won’t be able to turn your back on in the form of half-fairy, half-human Breena Malloy, a 16-year-old girl who discovers she is the heir to the Summer Kingdom.
And be prepared for a cliffhanger ending. But the good news is that there’s plenty more to come in Kailin Gow’s Frost Series, and we suggest you may always want to keep the next book handy as you finish the one you are reading. But then, that’s one of the great things about the Kindle! You can stock up on entire series without adding an ounce of weight to your burden or your backpack!

Read Bitter Frost, the first book in the highly-popular award-wining Frost Series by Kailin Gow. Award-winning finalist of the 2011 International Book Awards in 2 categories: Multi-genres Fiction and in Women’s Literature. The Frost Series has topped the bestselling lists on Amazon when Bitter Frost was first introduced. This epic series about the magical world of Feyland where strong and noble fairies live, tells a tale of the rise of half-fairy, half-human Breena Malloy, a 16 year-old girl who discovers she is the heir to the Summer Kingdom. In her journey, she grows up fast, as Feyland is beautiful, but dangerous, and the two fey kingdoms Summer and Winter are at war. To complicate everything, Breena had always dreamed about a handsome young man, whom she learns was once her betrothed, the icy and cold Prince Kian, the Winter Prince and son to the Snow Queen, Queen of the Winter Kingdom.  They were once betrothed, but now they’re mortal enemies. In a land of magic and war, can love, the most powerful of all magic, be stronger than fey laws and duty?

Read an excerpt here:

“The dream had come again, like the sun after a storm. It was the same dream that had come many times before, battering down the doors of my mind night after night since I was a child. It was the sort of dreams all girls dream, I suppose – a dream of mysterious worlds and hidden doorways, of leaves that breathe and make music when they are rustled in the wind, and rivers that bubble and froth with secrets. Dreams, my mother always told me, represent part of our unconsciousness – the place where we store the true parts of our soul, away from the rest of the world. My mother was an artist; she always thought this way. If it was true, then my true soul was a denizen of this strange and fantastical world. I often felt, in waking hours, that I was in exile, somehow – somehow less myself, less true, than I had been in my enchanted slumber. The real world was only a dream, only an echo, and in silent moments throughout the day it would hit me: I am not at home here.”
