A Perfect Mess (A Perfect Secret Book 1)
By Zoe Dawson / Genre: Coming of Age / Rating: 4.1 out of 5 stars (47 reviews)
I know what you did last summer.
Aubree Walker, the perfect girl most likely to succeed, is sure there’s only one person who knows what she did.
Booker Outlaw, one of the three Outlaw brothers—all identical, all gorgeous, all from the wrong side of the tracks, and all pure bad boys. He was always the unpredictable one, the one who would be brash enough to make it big self-publishing horror novels on the internet. He promised never to tell, but everyone knows you can never trust an Outlaw.
Then a year later, in the middle of the night, she receives a phone call at Tulane. Her aunt, who took her in after her mother’s death, is in a coma under suspicious circumstances. Now she has to face that one person who knows all about what she did that summer—sexy Booker.
Returning to Hope Parish to be with her aunt, stirs up all those ugly memories. When Aubree starts getting threats, she can’t help but wonder if what she did last summer was tied to her aunt’s “accident.” Afraid, she turns to the only person who knows the truth and Booker doesn’t hesitate to offer his broad shoulder for her to lean on. But Booker has a secret of his own that could crush their fledgling relationship.
As the hot, sultry summer days on the bayou move on, she finds that even a perfectly smart girl can lose her heart to a perfectly bad boy. What is she going to do when someone starts asking questions Aubree doesn’t want to answer? She’s knee deep into a terribly dangerous, wholly life changing, who-can-she-really-depend-on perfect mess.

Unforgettable: Short Stories
By Paulette Alden / Genre: Short Stories, Literary Fiction / Rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars (34 reviews)
Paulette Alden’s Unforgettable: Short Stories is a beautifully observed, wryly humorous, and profoundly moving collection that follows Miriam Batson, the protagonist of Alden’s earlier collection, Feeding the Eagles, into middle-age as she navigates her own aging, the life choices she’s made,and the loss of those she loves. Written from the heart but without sentimentality, the stories give shape and meaning to feelings and experiences common to many, especially women.
In “The Student,” Miriam, caught up in the drama of the suicide attempt of one of her favorite college students, ricochets between maternal and romantic feelings, as she remembers her own youth “when love was new,” and her desire to mother the young man. “Sorrow” brings Miriam back to the South Carolina of her childhood when she returns to visit the grave of a beloved maid, where she feels heartache not only for her death, but also for the whole tragic history of the South. In “Enormously Valuable,” Miriam decides to take a stand for herself at the university where she has been passed over for a teaching job given to a less qualified man: ” Her mother hadn’t taught her to be tough; she had taught her to be nice. As if that could protect her. And maybe it could, in a parlor. But not in the English Department. Nice was nice, but no defense against getting screwed. In fact, it just made it easier . . .” And in “Swimming, Snow,” Miriam experiences the spiraling nature of grief after the sudden death of her father.
The last five stories in Unforgettable form a progressive narrative as Miriam tries to keep her mother afloat as she is being pulled under by Alzheimer’s. Moving her mother first from South Carolina to a senior apartment in Minnesota, then to assisted living, and then to a nursing home, Miriam experiences all the grief, guilt, poignancy, painful humor, exhaustion, intimacy and ultimately deep love involved in caring for a failing parent. Anyone who has experienced such a situation will relate to Miriam’s feelings as she struggles with the inevitable, arriving at last at acceptance and appreciation for what, after so much loss, still remains.
The memoiristic stories in Unforgettable reveal the power of writing to transform common,familiar, relatable experiences into compelling narratives that move us, entertain us, and illuminate our own lives.

By Jamie Magee / Genre: Single Authors, Short Stories / Rating: 4.9 out of 5 stars (30 reviews)
Reveca Beauregard had long ago been dubbed the Queen of Darkness by the dead. To the living she was known as the Pentacle Daughter, the only acknowledged female member of the Pentacle Sons MC, the most lethal biker correlation known to exist. She was rumored to be a witch. That rumor, of course, was true.
New Orleans was her home, at the Beauregard Boneyard, the safe haven the Club resided within. Only those in the inner circle were as Reveca was—immortal. To be as such you had to choose the life, and the life had to choose you. For either to occur, death came first.
Those deaths came from wars the Sons fought with both the mortal and immortal worlds, as they bent the decrees of the modern lawmen and the paranormal world at large who had no hope of opposing the dark splendor of their vengeance.
Presently, the mysterious murder of a mortal coupled with the cold-blooded slaying of Reveca’s close friend has led the lawmen to place their corrupt accusations upon the Sons. A forced barter with a Lord of Death has landed the Club with a soul that is set to rock the foundation the Sons as a whole stand upon.
