Nightmare: Prisoners of Purgatory MC #1

By Bella Jew / Genre: New Adult & College, Romance

Dear Nightmare,

I wish I could introduce myself, and tell you who I really am, but that simply can’t be.
You know why, of course.
We all know why.
We’ve all heard the story; we grew up hearing the story.
The one about you…and him.
Your life was taken from you, and for so many years, you lived as your name describes – a nightmare.
But, that’s not really your name, is it?
That’s how your club sees you. How the world sees you.
I know who you are.
You say you didn’t do it, but you won’t talk to anyone.
You won’t tell your truth.
Instead, you drown in darkness, letting the world pass you by.
I can’t help but wonder why?
I’m nobody, in the big scheme of things, but I do have a purpose.
I want to know the truth.
I want the world to know the truth.
What happened that fateful day cannot be held prisoner a second longer.
I can’t tell you that, though, because you’ll never talk to me.
You’ll never let me in.
You’ll push me away like you do everyone else.
You’ll sit at that bar, your brown eyes lost and empty, until the last breath leaves your body.
I can’t let that happen, you see?
So, I’m going to take a risk. Do something crazy.
I hope you’ll forgive me for it, in the end.
Maybe you won’t, but I’m going to do it anyway.
I guess I’ll talk to you soon.
Love,
Bonnie.

As they agreed on the night of their high school graduation, Leiklyn and her two friends, Tiffany and Willen meet on the porch of the Manor at Blueberry Beach on April Fool’s day, eighteen years after being given their diplomas.

Life hadn’t turned out as expected for any of them.

A single mother for fifteen years, Leiklyn recently lost her job in HR for an oil company and her unemployment is running out.

Could the manor she and her friends bought for $1 at a tax sale in celebration of graduation be the change she needs to move forward in her life?

Or will it just complicate things when she finds out the explosive secret her fifteen-year-old daughter is hiding?

When she finds out that her old high school crush – and the only one who knows her most terrible secret – now owns the hardware store and will be working closely with them on renovations, Leiklyn must choose whether she wants to start over somewhere else, or whether the draw of spending misty mornings by the lake with a man who understands her all too well is worth the risk to her heart.

Magister’s Bane: Book 1 – An Urban Fantasy Adventure (Call of the Elements)

By Yvette Bostic / Genre: Royalty, Fairy Tales & Folklore, Fantasy

Magic can’t be real, right? Tell that to the werewolf glaring at me with his near-black eyes or the handsome vampire lounging in the corner.

Being kidnapped by vampires wasn’t the first thing on my to-do list. Hell, it wasn’t even the twentieth thing on my list. Neither was running for my life or depending on a handsome stranger to keep me safe. Learning that magic and supernatural creatures were real was even farther down the list.

Now that my eyes had been opened, I couldn’t ignore the vampires, mages, and wolf shifters who thought I was their chosen one. They somehow got it in their heads that I was the answer to all their problems. Not just me, but the elementals who’d attached themselves and their magic to my humble self.

What was a girl to do with all this newfound popularity and magic?

I didn’t really have a choice. The elementals weren’t leaving, and neither were all my new stalkers. I’d have to embrace my destiny or lose my life.

She’s beautiful. Broken. And she needs me to save her.

Anastasia Ivanova is everything I shouldn’t want. She’s the damaged and disgraced daughter of a Bratva brigadier, a former ballerina and now the possession of a man whose name I don’t even know, let alone where to start looking to find him. She has no pedigree, no connections, no innocence.

Nothing to offer, by the standards that my world uses to judge a future bride.

I have a life back in Boston. A business to run, men who depend on me, and a woman that I’m meant to marry. The daughter of Graham O’Sullivan is waiting there, expecting me to sign the betrothal contract and put a ring on her finger as soon as I return. To forge an alliance that will make everyone forget about my missing older brother, and see me as the true heir.

Going after Ana is foolish. Reckless. Dangerous. It threatens everything that I’ve tried to build since my father’s death—my seat at the head of the Irish Kings, my livelihood, even my life itself.

But from the moment I saw her face, I haven’t been able to get it out of my head. I dream about her. Want her. Need her. I want to take every broken piece of her and put it back together. No matter the cost.

I want to be everything she doesn’t know that she needs. Her lover, if she’ll let me. Her husband, if she’ll have me.

But first, I’ll have to be her savior.

After all, Katherine had promised Michael, now Duke of Elsmore, that she would wait for him, only to marry another three months later.

Michael Carville, Seventh Duke of Elsmore, had unexpectedly inherited his title, following the death of his elder brother. For a decade, Michael had fought on the peninsula for his country and tried to forget the girl who broke his heart. Now, he finds himself back in London and still as enamoured with Lady Atwood as he had been a decade before.
Common sense told him that he could not hope to make Katherine his bride, not when she could not provide him with heirs, but when the pair accidentally become embroiled in scandal, Michael seizes the chance to make Katherine his bride.

As the pair try to mend the hurts of their past, Michael comes to realise that he is not the only one who has spent a decade at war. Can he help Katherine heal, or is she too broken to love again?

After the siege of Lochmaben, from which she barely escapes, she and others from that burgh find refuge in the Selkirk forest. All that she loved has been heartlessly taken from her and she lives a mean existence, indifferent and joyless.
