Trailer




Shivering Fear
Blurb:
Michelle Jackson and Sam Matthews are a young couple in love, having been brought together in a backdrop of family-owned corporate drama. An inexperienced Michelle gives herself over to Sam even though he's unsure of staying in a relationship with her whilst having to deal with fallout from his father's gambling problem and its detrimental effect on the family business. When Michelle is kidnapped by those to whom Sam's father owes money, will all bets be off? Can their love survive the threats of Chicago's underworld thugs, let alone the appearance of one handsome Alex Mason?


Snippet:

She watched him while he ate. His cheekbones were angular and his eyes were slightly almond shaped. His shoulder-length hair framed his face. All that, along with his mesmerizing personality, made him a dreamy sort of handsome. Penne’s summation of Alex had been correct. There was also the fact that, unlike Sam, Alex was here. She needed someone, too.
Suddenly, she realized he was looking back at her. “What, what’s wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked.
            Alex set the dip down. “Nothing’s wrong. I was just thinking that Sam is one lucky guy.”
            A rush of heat washed over her neck and chest. “Alex, you shouldn’t say things like that. I need to talk to you about yesterday, at Solange.”
            “When Penne kissed me? Telling me to stay away from you? I got her message. She has nothing to do with us.”
            “Alex, there is no us.”
            “Oh, there’s something.” He looked directly into her eyes. “It may not be an ‘us’ but it’s something.”

Snippet:

Reid Jamison to Elyse August..
“Yes, I am thirsty.”

“I’m going to have some wine.”

“All right.” I reached for my dress. 

He swiftly grabbed my wrist. “Please don’t cover up.” He gazed at me from head to toes. “You are more beautiful than I imagined.”

I was sure I was grinning like a schoolgirl. “You imagined me?” 

He smiled that confident, lusty grin at me. “From the first moment that I saw you. I have imagined you.” 

I stared at him. “What, what do you mean?” 

He puckered his lips. “I saw you first, Elyse.”

“No.” 

“Oh yes. My eyes watched you from the moment you stepped off the elevator.” He was looking quite satisfied with himself. “I watched you sit outside of the H.R. office. When you finally looked up and our eyes met, I knew I had to find you.”

Other Side of Happiness 
   by:



Blurb

Sometimes the worst things can happen to the best people.

Edison West spent the first twenty-two years of her life enjoying the benefits of living in a small town. A simple wave or friendly smile should not have put her in the path of evil, yet that’s exactly where she found herself.

Gone is the girl who trusted, loved, and cared about everyone. In its place is a girl who has folded into herself, and locked herself away in her own private world filled with dark shadows and leering nightmares.

Edison’s road to healing is made easier by her small circle of friends and family.Though they help keep the darkness from consuming her, her past continues to try and haunt her at every turn.

When fate decides she needs to start making some changes they come in the form of one sexy man in uniform and a slowly growing group of people she can call friends.

Edison’s journey is met with a few hitches and glitches, and a past that just won’t stay in the past and now it threatens the very people she struggled to hold on to.


Even when things look perfect, there’s always the lingering shadows of hell waiting for her on the other side of happiness.

**AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT**


Line F. Nielsen - Bio:

Line is 30 years old. She was born and raised in Denmark, is married to the love of her life and attends University in Odense, Denmark, where she is finishing up her Bachelor degree in English, with a secondary in Marketing, Branding and Communication.

Always feeling like she was born in the wrong country Line has, since the age of 15, sought out the English language, which she today speaks, writes and reads practically as a native English speaker. She loves the language so much that she could study nothing else but that. She also loves to meet new people from all over, with whom she can communicate in English.

Line is the author of the Romance Novel “From The Shadows” plus three Poetry and Song collections, titled “My Life Is Worth Something Too”, “STRENGTH; is more than just a word” and “Becoming Me”. She plans on publishing more within that genre, but right now her focus is on her much anticipated second Romance Novel “Chasing The Light”, which is a sequel to “From The Shadows” and two standalone Romance Novels, titled “When You Return” and “Heartstrings”.

She is a multi-creative HSP and therefore also introverted, but she makes the best of it through her writing, singing and drawing. Although she can be a bit reserved amongst strangers, Line is a very caring, honest and charismatic person, who believes that you can always rise from your struggles and become stronger. She herself is proof of that.

“I once saw living in my head as a curse, but I would never have gotten to where I am now, if I didn’t. So today I see it as a blessing”.

Line is addicted to music (mostly mock and Metal), she is a book worm and she is the person that can make you laugh yourself to pieces from her kinky, naughty and sometimes dark humor. She is a free spirit, who believes that you should never stop reaching for your dreams, and that you should value the things that sets you apart from the rest of the world.

BLOOD TO DUST

"Bonnie and Clyde meets Kill Bill." - Jenna, Goodreads




Blurb
His name is Beat, and I should hate him.

Bound, blindfolded and bruised, I'm tied in his basement, waiting for the men who stripped me from clothes and humanity to collect his debt to them. Me.

His name is Nate and I should hate him, but I don't.

I'm not supposed to know his real name, even worse, I'm not supposed to care. He is nothing to me but means to an end. The plan is simple: break free, collect the pieces of my broken soul, kill the bastards and run away.

His name is Nathaniel Thomas Vela, and I've never seen his face, though I hear that it's beautiful.

Behind the rugged and handsome exterior, there's a quiet murderer, a killer who thinks guns are for pussies and ends people with his bare hands.

His name doesn't matter, neither does his face, but what does matter is my heart. And right now, sadly, it's his.

Blood to Dust is a standalone, full-length novel. It contains graphic violence and adult situations some may find offensive. It is an Amazon international bestseller.

Troy Brennan

Every Southie in Boston knows that name. The son of a dead mobster. The heart-throb with steel-blue eyes. "The Fixer" who can make or break you in this city. 
Oh, and my new husband. 

Sparrow Raynes 

That's me. No one seemed to remember my name up until he barged into my life. 

But then he caged me. 
Kidnapped me.
And killed every chance I had to run away from the place where we grew up.
Put simply, Troy Brennan clipped my wings.

I have dreams, big ones, but I doubt he'll ever let me chase them. I have no idea why he decided to take me as his wife. But I do know this: pissing off this man will not do me any good. At all.

TYED



Blurb



Meet Blaire

An underachieving college student with zero prospects and a ton of issues (hey, being the less-successful twin of a gorgeous supermodel would totally do that to you). She doesn’t do bad boys. Actually, she doesn’t do boys, like, at all. Not that she’s a lesbian. And not that there’s anything wrong with being one. It’s just that…well…she kind of needs to focus on graduating from college right now.


And she needs something from Ty. Badly.


Meet Ty


Mixed Martial artist, soon-to-be Welterweight champion of the Xtreme Warrior League and the hottest guy in the Bay Area. He’s cocky, arrogant and completely off-limits to anyone with more than three working brain cells…but dude, HAVE YOU SEEN HIS BUTT?

On top of being a world-class player, Ty has a secret. 

And Blaire? She can barely even handle his truths. 

Life is about to throw a few knockout punches at both of them. Can they handle the pain?
