by Colleen Charles

Will a violent sociopath destroy their happily ever after?

Abused by her volatile ex-husband, Lake has found solace in her work with champion Arabian horses. When she finds out a date with her longtime crush is one of the items up for bid at a charity auction, she once again takes an interest in the two-legged species as well.

The betrayal and public humiliation retired National Hockey League player Josh Adams suffered at the hands of his ex-wife scarred him deeply. Now he's only interested in superficial flings...until he connects with Lake at the charity event. She has depth of character and values he holds dear but getting involved with her could cost him everything.

Can two scarred people, perfect for each other, overcome their broken hearts and find the love and happiness they deserve? Or will Lake's past, and a madman bent on revenge, put an end to their promising future?

Surviving The Evacuation, Book 1: London

by Frank Tayell

The outbreak began in New York. Soon it had spread to the rest of the world. People were attacked, infected and they died. Then they came back. Nowhere is safe from the undead.

As anarchy and civil war took grip across the globe, Britain was quarantined. The press was nationalised. Martial law, curfews and rationing were implemented. It wasn’t enough. An evacuation was planned. The inland towns and cities of the UK would be evacuated to defensive enclaves being built around the coast, in the Scottish Highlands and in the Irish Republic.

Bill Wright broke his leg on the day of the outbreak. Unable to join the evacuation, he watched from his window as the streets filled with refugees, he watched as the streets emptied once more. He watched as they filled up again, this time with the undead. Then the power went out.

He is trapped. He is alone. He is running out of food and water. He knows that to reach the safety of the enclaves he will have to venture out into the wasteland that once was England. On that journey he will ultimately discover the horrific truth about the outbreak, a decades old conspiracy and his unwitting part in it.

This is the first volume of his journal.

A Favorite Son

by Uvi Poznansky

This story is a present-day twist on the biblical story of Jacob and his mother Rebecca plotting together against the elderly father Isaac, who is lying on his deathbed, in order to get their hands on the inheritance, and on the power in the family. This is no old fairy tale. Its power is here and now, in each one of us.

Listening to Yankle telling his take on events, we understand the bitter rivalry between him and his brother. We become intimately engaged with every detail of the plot, and every shade of emotion in these flawed, yet fascinating characters. He yearns to become his father's favorite son, seeing only one way open to him: deceit.

In planning his deception, it is not love for his father, nor respect for his age that drives his hesitation--rather, it is the fear to be found out. And so--covering his arm with the hide of a kid, pretending to be that which he is not--he is now ready for the last moment he is going to have with his father.
