Reunited
The Coven Book 3
By Drako
Genre: LGTQ Paranormal
Romance
It's been several months since the noble sacrifice of Talis
to save his family and the world. Dion, his husband, has been contemplating
changes. It's painful to be in his husband's home with his family while he
isn't there to enjoy. He's done as he was asked and taken on a lead role in the
Coven alongside his sister-in-law, Teryn, and her husband, Cian. But without
Talis, the world just doesn't feel right. Little do they know, this isn't the
end at all.
The threat of the same Dark God rises again, and with it,
the Coven needs their leader back. Talis returns to the land of the living
thanks to untapped and unexplored magic from the Fair People to find that not
everything was as he'd left it. It's time to venture to the land of the Fair
People, Albion, to make one more stand against the very force that cost him his
life before. This time, he's not fighting alone. The Coven gathers to fight
back the darkness and to keep their fearless leader with the other half of his
soul.
The life of a witch is ever changing. After the greatest
test the Coven has ever faced, Talis and Dion settle in happily married life.
But Talis is the head of the Coven, and his life will never be simple. He has
responsibilities far above and beyond what he had anticipated and ever
increasing powers to master. With all this, there is the certainty that
darkness never sleeps, and now comes a true test of more than just ability, but
the strength of his will. As Teryn and Cian prepare to welcome a new addition
to the family, Talis and Dion's work just begins as insecurity and outside
forces come together to threaten their marriage. Beneath it all is a sinister
force older and more powerful than any ever known, threatening not only to tear
them all apart but the world as they know it.
The Coven is a special group of witches given charge of the
manor on Genum Island, and Talis is considered the head and strongest of it.
Joined by his sister, Teryn, and her husband, Cian, they protect their magic
based home from the forces of darkness who seek the mysterious power of their
home. It's all routine, until Talis' old crush shows up with a strong desire to
take the head witch for himself.
Dion has come to terms with what he wants, and that's Talis. He has a lot to
make up for, but with him comes trouble. Hot on his tail is his ex-girlfriend,
and with her is a demon who has a craving for souls and a rise to her former
glory.
The Coven has no choice but to stand against the greatest threat they've ever
faced. How far will they go to save a soul?

After humans circumvented anti-AI laws and made new species
to fulfill roles of menial laborers, sex slaves, and shock troops those
creations eventually rose up and killed every man, woman, and child on the
planet. This is the world if Frankenstein's monsters ruled the Earth.
The Brittle Riders
Book One
by Bill McCormick
Genre: Science Fiction Fantasy
In a far future, Earth had already been visited by an alien
race called the Sominids, who came here for the express purpose of drinking and
having sex with everyone they could. When one of their infamous parties
resulted in the moon being cut in half and killing everyone who happened to
live there, they quietly left. Their encounter with the Sominids had taught the
human race many things, primarily that faster-than-light travel did not exist.
Denied the stars, the human race began to dwindle in numbers and terminate all
of their space programs.
A thousand years later, a scientist named Edward Q. Rohta
circumvented anti-AI laws, laws which had been on the books for millennia, by
creating organic creatures to provide manual labor. Instead of dying after ten
years, as promised in the company brochure, they would develop flu-like
symptoms and go into hiding. Eventually, fed up with the mistreatment they
suffered at the hands of humans, they rose up and killed every man, woman, and
child on the planet. This is the story of what happens next. The Brittle
Riders; Apocalypses are funny that way.
A very unique tone and world, reminiscent of GUARDIANS OF
THE GALAXY meets a MAGNIFICENT SEVEN/DIRTY DOZEN - type setup, but with a look,
flavor, and lexicon all its own. In a world where studios and streamers are
looking for IP that's expansive, both narratively and in terms of ancillary
possibilities (prequels, offshoots, video games, etc.), (The Brittle Riders)
certainly seems to offer up a number of possibilities. - Garrick Dion –

When life gives
you lemons, make lemonade. Or maybe a gin and tonic.
But, beggars can't be choosers. Even if part of the deal is she has to pretend
to work at her aunt's latest hair-brained scheme, The Redemption Detective
Agency.
Seriously, the woman is a retired nurse. Why does she think she's remotely
qualified to run a detective agency, especially in a creepy little town like
Redemption?
But, when a strange phone call suddenly thrusts them into an actual case, Emily
finds herself hoping her aunt really does know what she's doing ... or an
innocent person may be the one to suffer the consequences.

A USA Today
Bestselling, award-winning author, Michele taught herself to read at 3 years
old because she wanted to write stories so badly. It took some time (and some
detours) but now she does spend much of her time writing stories. Mystery
stories, to be exact. They're clean and twisty, and range from psychological
thrillers to cozies, with a dash of romance and supernatural thrown into the
mix. If that wasn't enough, she posts lots of fun things on her blog, including
short stories, puzzles, recipes and more, at MPWNovels.com.
Michele grew up in Wisconsin, (hence why all her books take place there), and
still visits regularly, but she herself escaped the cold and now lives in the
mountains of Prescott, Arizona with her husband and southern squirrel hunter
Cassie.
When she's not writing, she's usually reading, hanging out with her dog, or
watching the Food Network and imagining she's an awesome cook. (Spoiler alert,
she's not. Luckily for the whole family, Mr. PW is in charge of the cooking.)
