Some secrets were never meant to be uncovered

Upheaval

The Divided States Series Book 1

by A.E. Faulkner

Genre: YA Dystopian Fantasy

The Divided States of America, 2121

A hundred years after the Great Infection Spread swept across countries and continents, barriers rose and borders closed. Nations isolated themselves in protective siloes as survivors faced starvation, disease and the daunting task of rebuilding. The United States was carved into three Territories, each ruled independently.

Today, the three Societal Order leaders ration everything – clothing, food, energy – because demand drowns supply. To conserve resources, citizens are declared either day dwellers or night dwellers, essentially limiting their existence to 12 hours each day.

Where you’re born is where you stay. Until now.

Everly Scott is preparing to graduate from her final year of schooling when she’s chosen to serve on an inter-Territory delegation. As one of twelve delegates, she will help assess and recommend updates to the Alliance Agreement, which outlines trade and peace relations between the Territories.

Everly embarks on the journey of a lifetime – crossing the Xone walls to learn about people and places that have always been well out of reach. It’s the greatest opportunity she’s ever had. And also the most dangerous one.

Secrets lurk within each Territory and Everly’s about to find out what happens to those who uncover them.

The Brave and The Reckless: Steamy Wild West Enemies-to-Lovers Romance with Slow-Burn Passion - For Fans of Elsie Silver

BY

 Dilan Dyer

BLURB

A lawless cowboy and a city girl with nothing in common … except a fiery chemistry they’re both desperate to deny

Saddle up for this steamy romance for fans of Elsie Silver and Lyla Sage!

--

Moving to the Wild West wasn’t part of Esra Taner’s plan.

But after dropping out of medical school, she joins her brother at Bravetown, a Wild West theme park.

As the resident damsel in distress, Esra spends her summer being “abducted” by Ace Ryder—the lawless cowboy with a wicked smirk.

Noah Young, seems to hate Esra at first sight – and the feeling is mutual.

They argue through every show, but as the tension grows and their futures at Bravetown hang in the balance, their onstage attraction might not be all for show…

Tropes:

• Enemies to Lovers
• Cowboy x City Girl
• Grumpy x Sunshine
• Brother’s best friend
• Riding Lessons (literally)

The Brave and The Reckless: Steamy Wild West Enemies-to-Lovers Romance with Slow-Burn Passion - For Fans of Elsie Silver - Kindle edition by Dyer, Dilan. Contemporary Romance Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

REVIEW: 4*

Western theme park where the characters play the same role over and over… this sounds a lot like West world minus the robots. I loved how the world building really pulled you in. I could imagine the park and the roles the main characters played. I like seeing behind the scenes of the park and linking the people with the characters they were cast as.

Esra’s life was on track to please her parents and earn her some big money, but when she drops out of medical school she’s cut off from her funds. Her brother gets her a job at Bravetown, a wild western themed theme park. Now she has to learn how to take care of herself while navigating her new surroundings.

Esra is given the role of playing the damsel in distress who’s kidnapped by the lawless cowboy. It’s far from the Ice cream vendor she was hoping to play. She has to work hard to fit the role and learn some life skills along the way.

In reality Esra is stumbling to shake the irritation of her brother’s best friend. Every time Noah’s around she’s making simple life mistakes.

Can Esra get her act together while staying true to herself?

This book was really fun. I liked the dynamics between Esra and Noah. They had great banter, hot chemistry and a connection that faded everyone else into the background. The western theme park was a great setting and I loved falling for the small town cowboy.

Meet Tansy Shackleton

She's just the witch to finish what her ancestors started.

Scare Thee Well

Laurel Haven Witches Book 2

by ReGina Welling

Genre: Paranormal Women’s Fiction

Three hundred years ago, one witch had to live with her mistakes. Today, another might have to die for them.

 Tansy Shackleton has spent her entire life carrying the guilt of her family's legacy. If not for her ancestor's mistake, good witches might not be trapped in the coastal town of Laurel Haven, Maine. But no matter how hard she tries to make amends, she can't stop seeing the stain on her soul. Not even at the cost of her marriage.

 Connor Shackleton has tried everything he can think of to get his wife to see that she's not to blame for the unwitting actions of a long-dead witch. At his wit's end and unable to watch Tansy work herself into the ground for something that wasn't even her fault, he proposes they take a break for a few days, just to get some perspective.

 He should have known Tansy would martyr both their happiness on the alter of guilt, but he didn't. He wanted her back almost from the minute he walked away, but she's shut him out of her life as firmly as the door she closed behind him.

 The problem is, life and death in Laurel Haven go hand in hand for witches of the blood, and just like Tansy, Connor's one of them. The only way to move forward is to turn and face the past head-on. Together with her new coven, Tansy will have to put all of Laurel Haven's ghosts to rest or die trying.

Things could not be worse, she thinks, until she meets the man next door and decides they could. Ry McFadden is the most infuriating man on the planet. He’s a study in contrasts; grumpy yet generous, intensely private, but somehow open. Rue can’t think what to do with him, except she can, and that just makes things worse.

The problem is, Ry McFadden just might be part of Rue’s destiny as she learns she’s been brought to Laurel Haven to finish what her ancestors started.

The Conall Series

 

 

Heroes and villains from myth, legend, and history converge in this saga set in the vast ancient forests, treacherous bogs, snow-capped mountains, and mysterious lochs of Scotland some four hundred years before the birth of Christ.

The Place of Blood – Rinn-Iru

Conall Book I

by David H. Millar

Genre: Historical Fantasy

Over four hundred years before the birth of Christ, the island of Ériu is a patchwork of feuding kingdoms, vast plains, and frozen bogs. Battle, intrigue, betrayals, and courage are part of life for the Celts who call Ériu home.

At the same time, from their underground halls, the mysterious demi-goddesses of the Aes Sídhe seduce brave warriors, turning men into kings and binding them with fearsome geis.

Conall Mac Gabhann is content with his apprenticeship with the local blacksmith. Content, that is, until he finds his family slaughtered in their home. Two men share responsibility for the massacre: a mad Irish king and a dissolute Roman. Conall will have his vengeance or die in the attempt.

Accompanied by his childhood love—the beautiful but dark-spirited—Mórrígan, and the veteran warrior Fearghal, Conall's quest takes him northward through unfriendly kingdoms to a confrontation beyond the ancient earthworks of the Black Pig's Dyke.

Along the way, Conall and Mórrígan will gather an army and come under the influence of the Aes Sídhe. If Conall desires, an apprentice blacksmith will become a king. Who knows what Mórrígan will become?


The Conall Series contains scenes of sex and violence and language appropriate to the period (400 B.C.) it is set in. It is not recommended for those under 14 without parental consent.

The Raven's Flight – Eitilt an Fhiagh Dhuibh

Conall Book II

Conall II: The Raven’s Flight continues to chronicle the story of Conall and Mórrígan and the epic journey of the warriors from Ériu (Ireland).

Conall and his brooding queen, Mórrígan, lead over two thousand warriors with their followers across the narrow sea separating Ériu from Albu (Britain). Their quest: the capture of Cassius Fabius Scaeva, the dissolute Roman held responsible for the slaughter of their families.

The Ériu encounter human, natural, and supernatural foes and friends. At the mercy of the Aes Sídhe, a race of demi-goddesses who demand that he fulfil his geis, Conall is named the Hand of the Goddess and given the instrument that will crush the Na Daoine Tùrsach—a tribe of fanatical, blood-lusting priests.

They battle fierce northern tribes: the Forest People's one-eyed king, Drostan Ruadh, opposes their presence, as do the Na Mèadaidh, led by the sly Finnean Mac Sèitheach. Yet, not all are enemies. The Raven People offer their support, although it too comes at a price.

Heroes and villains from myth, legend, and history converge in this saga set in the vast ancient forests, frozen bogs, snow-capped mountains, and mysterious lochs of Scotland some four hundred years before the birth of Christ.

The Sisters – Na Deirfiúracha

Conall Book III

It is 406 B.C. The Gaels tramp battle through the vast forests of Northern Albu and cross the brooding moors and marshes to reach the grain fields of Southern Albu. The majestic stone brochs, crannags and dùin of the north give way to the great hillforts of the South.

The Sisters is the third book of the series. In this tale, the fearsome women surrounding Conall take centre stage.

A malevolent queen bent on conquering Northern Albu launches an invasion and kidnaps the twin daughters of Conall and Mórrígan. The king's and queen's blood oath promises no mercy until the young twins are returned.

A merciless assassin stalks the community, and Tadhg is given the unenviable task of tracking the killer down. His mission worsens when the signs point to one of the women close to Conall, and he becomes the target.

Which partners are loyal to their hand-fasting oaths, and who will betray them? Will honour be redeemed on the battlefield?

Amid the battles, betrayals and intrigue, Mòrag, a tall beauty and fearsome warrior, desires Conall at any cost. A clash with Conall’s queen, also known as The Dark Huntress, is inevitable.

A Brace of Eagles - Snaidhm Iolar

Conall Book IV

“Butter-gold and cruelly hooked, the beak ripped a ragged gash across the newborn’s throat.”

Blacksmith’s son, Conall Mac Gabhann’s only desire was to follow in his father’s footsteps and enjoy a long life with his childhood love, Mórrígan. The slaughter of their parents dashed those dreams. Fuelled by vengeance, both embark on the dark path of retribution.

From the ancient forest, two great eagles take wing. With amber-gold eyes, Fate and the Goddess watch, ready to guide and meddle in human lives.

Conall, now Clann Ui Flaithimh’s ‘king over kings’, must complete his geis—at any cost. He takes another stride closer to Rome and a reckoning with Marcus Fabius Ambustus. Flat-bottomed biremes carry Conall’s army across the Muir nIocht to crash on the shingle beaches of Northwestern Gaul.
New enemies and uneasy alliances flourish. Assassins, treason, and betrayal thrive.

Above all, Conall values loyalty. Thus, treason within the tribe sours his belly. Mercy will have no part in his response.

The fourth novel in the Conall series, Conall IV: A Brace of Eagles, is a rousing epic of Celtic heroes and villains, bloody battles, political intrigue, honour, betrayal, tragedy and forbidden love.

Retribution - Díoltas

Conall Book V

“Witch!” Tullus gasped.
“You are not that fortunate, Roman,” came the menacing reply.”

Blood has purchased a fragile peace for Conall and Mórrígan and the close circle of friends they call family. However, allies and enemies alike wonder if the king and queen have lost the thirst for vengeance on those who slaughtered their families. Alarmed, gods, kings, and despots conspire to poke the slumbering fire.

Brennus of the Senones smarts at his defeat at Conall's hands and covets his lands and wealth. Will a bruised ego and hubris overrule the Gaulish king's typical pragmatism?

The Gaiscedach want revenge for the defeat and execution of their queen. In the dead of night, like cockroaches, they scuttle over the walls of Lugudunon.

Marcus Fabius Ambustus tolerates no challenge to his plan to be the Dictator of Rome. But has arrogance blinded him to the enemy he has nurtured?

The gates of Rome and retribution draw closer. But Conall needs his enemies as much as his friends. Still, who are enemies and who are friends? It is a time of schisms and rebuilding, of loved ones endangered, and assassins and spies revealed.

Yet, there has always been one constant: only the foolish doubt that Conall and Mórrígan will show mercy to those who threaten their family.

Conall V: Retribution is the final novel in the Conall series.

The Conall Series contains scenes of sex, violence, and language appropriate to the period (400 B.C.) in which it is set. It is not recommended for those under 14 without parental consent.

Wrath of Revenge

Detective Tom Robertson Book 1

by A.G. Winkworth

Genre: Crime Thriller, Murder Mystery

Detective Sergeant Tom Robertson has left the comfort of rural Scotland for the Met.

He doesn't need to be here. His business career earned him enough money to retire at thirty and spend his days playing golf. But he has chosen to challenge himself in a big city a long way from home. He thinks he might be able to make a difference. Not through arrogance, but perhaps a naïve belief that one police officer can change the lives of those in danger or trouble. He needs to test his own resolve, and prove he isn't too gentle a soul for this sort of work.

Tom hasn't found where he belongs yet. He knows his mission isn't as a teacher, a doctor or a priest. Could it be here, in London, at Merran Road Police Station?

When a blast from the past rocks the present

The discovery of human bones in a wooded area by a golf course gives DS Tom Robertson his first case since moving to the Met. Who is the victim? Why was he buried there? And how much can Tom and his new DCI, John Walters, find out from their initial enquiries before they are off the case and the Murder Investigation Team take over?

Two further murders narrow down the search for the killer. MIT has a suspect with motive, means and opportunity. But Tom thinks they should be looking in a different direction. Can he close the case while staying out of danger?

Join Tom and his colleagues for Wrath of Revenge, the first full-length instalment in the feel-good Detective Tom Robertson series, combining police procedural crime fiction and murder mystery with compelling characters and a thread of humour.

DS Tom Robertson’s career in the Met has started with a bang. Now he returns to the Hessop for the second time in a week. Can his knowledge of the local youngsters give him a crucial advantage in keeping them safe and bringing an end to the killing spree? But he has to be ready to adapt. For against this volatile backdrop, events take a different turn and the investigation uncovers other crimes linked to the serial killer who is already in custody.

I have always loved reading crime fiction, from the novels of Agatha Christie and PD James, to Ian Rankin and Peter Lovesey, among many others. This genre has so many talented authors, a topic which I will explore more in my newsletters. 

I started writing the Tom Robertson series in 2020, but quickly realised I had so much to learn about writing, crime, and then actually producing the book. I am indebted to all those who have helped me along the way. 

The first book I wrote, Darkness to Light, has been reworked, and will probably be re-titled too, to become book 4 in this series. I also wrote books 5 and 6 as I honed my craft. I felt readers would benefit from Tom’s backstory, so I wrote Deadly Justice, now book 2, Murder at the Museum, and book 3, Dangerous Reprisals. Then I decided the series needed a new start, so I wrote the first book, Wrath of Revenge.

As a new independent author, I really feedback and support from you, the reader. I hope you enjoy the adventures of Tom and his colleagues and I continue to read as the series develops. Please contact me with your thoughts so far, and leave a review on Amazon.
