When Cherie Marshall catches her fiancé and best friend in a compromising position, she cancels her upcoming wedding and jumps at the chance to escape to quiet Klondike, Pennsylvania to care for her elderly aunt. She thought her biggest issue would be adapting to life in the middle of a National Forest, so very different from her upbringing in the deserts of Arizona.

But that was before she met State Trooper Fire Marshall Jamison “Jazz” Maddox at the scene of a mysterious fire. As they both become acquainted with the close-knit Klondike residents, things get complicated as Cherie and Jazz find themselves in the middle of a local crime wave where arson, kidnapping, embezzlement and a decades old murder are just the tip of the iceberg.

Be sure get your free copy of the Klondike Kompanion and read the “Meet the Characters” interviews.

Lying in Wait [Kindle Edition]

Elizabeth Jasper (Author)

‘He could just see himself, in a year or so, going back home with his pockets stuffed with cash and his Da, Zach and Ma welcoming him with big smiles and open arms. It would be that grand he could hardly wait.’

But when Malachy Flynn finds himself mixed up with the Conway family in Dublin, he realises that making money isn’t always easy – or legal. Then there’s gang boss, Brogan. No-one messes with Brogan. Ever.

Northumberland farmer Tom Oliver prefers the company of married women, but time’s running out for him when his new dairyman moves to Netherwell Farm with his dangerously attractive wife and her pretty younger sister.

In London, Mal falls in love with Tom’s niece, Jess, but they are forced to flee to Northumberland when his secret past catches up with him. Revelations and death turn everyone’s lives upside down. Can Mal protect those he loves or will he forever be watching over his shoulder, waiting for Brogan to take revenge?

Elizabeth Jasper – Featured Author Week of August 17th, 2014.

Elizabeth Jasper in her own words…

Born and raised in the NE of England, I spent most of my working life in various administrative capacities in prestigious UK universities, where I organised Summer Schools and Study Tours, as well as carrying out a variety of administrative functions. I liked working for a living – it paid the bills – but I love writing even more. These days I am fortunate enough to be able to write full-time and have completed six novels, all available on Amazon Kindle: The Golden Cuckoo (for children aged 9-13), Lying in Wait, A Bed of Knives and books One and Two in the ‘Meggie’ Series – Meggie Blackthorn (Book One) and Meggie Blue (Book Two). The third book in the series, Jack the Lad, is in progress. I’ve also written a sexy rom-com. The Other No 10,’ under the name Jo Jacobs. All my books are available in paperback. My primary aim as a writer is to entertain and engage my readers. I write across genres in order to expand my characters beyond the stereotypes often found in genre books and no matter how dark the material, I hope I can raise a smile or two along the way. A tear is even better.

Elizabeth’s also contributed a great story, Danse Macabre (also available to download from Amazon) is in Brandon Hale’s Vampire and Zombie book, The Bitten.

T.R. Harris - Featured Author Week of August 10, 2014.

T.R. Harris – Featured Author Week of August 10, 2014.

Hello Everyone!
My name is Tom Harris and I write under the name of T.R. Harris. Check out my blog at: bytrharris.com.

I currently have a best-selling science fiction series available entitled The Human Chronicles Saga, with five books in Part One and three books in Part Two.

The books in Part One are: The Fringe Worlds, Alien Assassin, The War of Pawns, The Tactics of Revenge and The Legend of Earth.

Part Two of the series includes Cain’s Crusaders, The Apex Predator and the latest and final book in the sequential series: A Galaxy to Conquer, which was released on April 19, 2014.

The adventures of Adam Cain WILL continue, with the next book due out for Christmas 2014. Check out my website/blog for updates as they become available.

The inspiration for The Human Chronicles series came from an ad for a T-shirt in the old Soldier of Fortune Magazine. It was of a muscle-bound man, holding a smoking gun and standing over a dead dragon-looking thing. The caption read: “I don’t know what it was — but it’s dead!”

This really struck me, the concept of humans not being afraid of anything, and when faced with a challenge as big as the universe, we can overcome any threat with a swagger and a wink! Just think, on the planet Earth we’re the badasses. Why would it be any different in outer space?

The series also introduces the reader to my concept of what a realistic galactic empire would look like — The Juirean Expansion — and how every advanced race shares the same wants, needs and desires as other intelligent beings. It’s not complicated. When you reach a certain level of evolution we all become more or less the same in our motivations.

The books are also written from the most realistic vantage point possible; my characters even have to go to the bathroom now and then! When was the last time you saw that in a sci-fi book. Adam Cain, the main character, also has anxiety attacks, is homesick … and is really pissed-off that he’s been yanked out of his comfortable life back on Earth and thrown into a smelly, disgusting and ‘alien’ universe.

As I say in the books, Adam Cain is an Alien with an Attitude … and he makes everyone around him pay for his bad mood!

The books are quick and easy reads, and have been part of one of the bestselling sci-fi series on Amazon over the past two years. I hope you enjoy them.

About Sharon

Known by the father of my high school friend as “the strange girl who lives down the street” I have always been fascinated by the oddest things. For example, unusual insects and plants, UFOs, ghosts and mythical creatures. Even my blog is full of the unusual.

Born a wee bit before the official computer age, my original writings were via pen to paper and I have boxes full of handwritten oddities. My goal is to bring it all to paperback and Kindle.

While the first release doesn’t qualify as an oddity, it speaks of one of my passions – the transformation of our shelter dog from bad dog to best friend.

I also design t-shirts and other cool giftie goodies, in addition to creating shareware computer games. Busy busy gal!
