My O is missing. Two therapists are going to help me find it. A standalone romance with an HEA ending and no cliffhangers. Two hours after Dennis proposes, I find my fiancé with his you-know-what buried in Tiffany Slater's hoohah, and he has the nerve to suggest it's my fault. Because I'm frigid. Sure, I've never had an orgasm with him, or with anyone for that matter, but relationships are about more than good nookie. (Not that it was ever good. Adequate is more like it. Okay, who am I kidding? Dennis couldn't find his way down there with a flashlight and a map.) Now I'm determined to find my missing O with the help of two of the hottest men I've ever set eyes on. Therapists Benjamin Long and Landon West. If these two men can't make me come, then no one can. I shouldn't sleep with them. I shouldn't succumb to their panty-melting smiles. I shouldn't listen when their firm voices promise me all the pleasure I can handle. I can't get enough. But when a bitter rival finds out about our forbidden relationship, everything will come crashing down.

Last of the Wild Days : Book One - Spring by Daniel J Loney 4.7 Stars (22 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

The Wild Days are all but over, and the Howling Hunt is nearing... Facing the worst winter in living memory, Brackenhal and Merralea are fleeing south with what's left of their tribe - and their last remaining cub. Plagued by cold, hunger, and opportunistic Flesheaters who are picking off their fellow Foragers one by one, there is still no sign of winter lifting, nor spring returning. Along their path, they discover an abandoned fox cub lying in the snow, yet despite foxes being among the most feared and cruel of all predators, they decide to raise the cub as their own. Meanwhile, another creature born of winter itself is uniting the Flesheaters under one creed to begin a great hunt, and while the Foragers raise their orphaned cub in little knowledge of the looming threat, the Wintergazer is ever growing in both power... and hunger. Against the setting described above, The Last of the Wild Days is the story of someone born into one way of life but raised into another; whose identity is increasingly torn between heritage and upbringing, nature and nurture, right and wrong - who must ultimately discover what the meanings of family and friendship truly are to them. As well as for use of setting, the world, characters and their various attitudes towards one another are intended as a satirical reflection of humanity and our issues throughout history that are still largely present today such as tribalism, slavery and greed. Dedicated to the memory of my brother Nathaniel (Natty), Brian Jacques whose books we both grew up with, and other influential authors who are sadly no longer with us, this is a story of life, death, love, grief, captivity, freedom, prejudice, compassion, and the complicated, bittersweet bonds of friendship and family - in a reflection of our own lives as a combination of beauty, agony and everything in between. If you decide to pick it up, self publishing relies heavily on ratings and reviews - so any review or any feedback you could offer would ...

ReejecttIIon - a number two by Daniel Clausen 3.9 Stars (23 Reviews)    Price verified 7 hours ago

By reading ReejecttIIon, it's likely you'll discover: colorful short stories, funny flash fiction, hilarious cartoons, riveting reviews, wondrous anagrams and other assorted skits and titbits of under-achieving literary genius. If you're lucky, you might come across sci-fi tales about the privatization of words, horror stories about hair and ruminations on indie writing. It's also possible that you'll find commentary on the hazards of greedy literary agents and stories about washed up movie directors who receive financial backing from space aliens. Publisher's Meekly calls it: "a thought-provoking fable about technological hubris and the hazards of bioengineering." (*This may or may not be referring to Jurassic Park and not ReejecttIIon.) Reader's Indigestion says: "this book quietly stands as one of the most powerful statements of the Civil Rights movement." (*This may or may not actually refer to To Kill a Mockingbird and not ReejecttIIon.) But why not read this seriously comical scattergun book and see what you can discover about ReejecttIIon for yourself?

A Mass Shooting, an FBI coverup, and a wealthy madman with his own militia and a political hitlist. Adam Cain is caught in the middle with only one person to trust: the enigmatic woman that calls herself "The Gypsy". She has all the answers, and a hit list of her own. Adam Cain. He's big, dangerous, an Army Ranger until they asked him to leave. The Gypsy. She's beautiful, skilled in the art of combat, alone against an army of assassins. One step ahead of the FBI and two steps ahead of the men that are trying to kill her. Maybe she doesn't have to fight alone. All Cain wanted that night was to have a few beers with his best friend; forget about the Army, forget about Afghanistan, and forget that his latest girlfriend had just walked out on him. Then a beautiful woman sat down next to him at the bar smelling of exotic oils and talking about second chances. Just when he thought his luck might finally have changed, four men walked into the club and started shooting people. "A thriller, a low key romance, and the ending is a killer.

Sydney's Promise: A Novel by David R. McKay 4.7 Stars (40 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Growing up in an impoverished home with an alcoholic mother burdened by declining mental health subjected Sydney Regan to a belief that she was invisible to the world that surrounded her. However, the gift of a small, ornamental dog gave Sydney hope, a forgotten song maintained a vital bond, and an imaginary box buried in the depths of her mind ensured her survival. Inspired by authentic events and experiences, "Sydney's Promise" is a heart-wrenching, thought-provoking story of relationships. Addressing many social issues, the storyline seamlessly transitions between the past and the present to follow the journey of Sydney Regan's life. Detailing the spirit and perseverance of a young girl besieged by neglect, and the emotional trauma of being submerged in a dysfunctional family, "Sydney's Promise" is an immersive and sensitive narrative of a "child raised by a village". It is also an intimate description of one woman's perpetual life lessons as she endures and strives to overcome the recurrent trials and challenges bestowed upon her. Do the lessons of our lives cultivate the resilience, understanding, and strength to find forgiveness for those who have hurt us? Above all, do they allow us to find forgiveness for the solitary, unrelenting love from our past who caused our greatest pain? For Sydney, the hard answers can only be found if she continues to navigate the most turbulent pathway of all. The one most familiar to her. That being her life! The one pathway she was always predestined to be on!

Vain & Valour : Volume 1 - Vanity by Justan Autor 5.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 9 hours ago

"Search the waters!" A familiar shout went up from near the castle. "Find that traitor!" To where does one flee when hunted by the world? What if you, the accused, held the very fate of the Ancien Régime in your grasp? And to survive, you had to become someone else? Espionage has a new face in the age of revolution. Meet a legend in the making. Against the sweeping backdrop of the Swiss Alps in 1791, this first instalment to the series "Vain & Valour" unfolds. In a confederacy poised on the brink of chaos, where secrets are currency, loyalty is a luxury, and every precarious step swings between survival and destruction, one false move could ignite revolution across Switzerland's neutral cantons. A mysterious fugitive ensnared in an assassination plot becomes the unwitting agent of destiny. But with the past holding the key to the future, will his choices save a nation or destroy it? Just as the title suggests, this narrative juxtaposes forces and themes that interplay brilliantly throughout its pages. As much a comedy of manners as it is a spy thriller, moments of laugh-out-loud absurdity collide with heart-pounding tension as we witness the birth of a secret agent. We encounter characters -- peasants and aristocrats, altruists and schemers, lovers and fighters -- who each embody the struggles between selfish ambition and noble sacrifice. "Vain & Valour" is more than a historical epic; it's a celebration of genre-blending artistry. A symphony of contrasts that captures the dance of deception and loyalty, burlesque and drama, mystery and romance, folly and grandeur. Evoked is the essence of Fleming, Dumas, le Carré, Hugo, Ludlum, and Fielding. Blended is the brilliance of adventure with the complexity of character study, where the vanity of one man is pitted against his capacity for valorous deeds. This is a story that promises not only to captivate with its plot but to resonate with its depth. Espionage has never looked so good. "In vain doth valour ...

Prissy is French by prior marriage and if Cher could "Turn Back Time" and perform one of her popular "final" concerts in the legendary Moulin Rouge, it might be something like the reception. Don't believe me? Stinky has photos. Reader discretion warning: The "house cocktails" at the event are more like "house of ill repute cocktails."

Ultramarine by Victoria Mosley 5.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 10 hours ago

''Life affirming, a beautiful read... '' ''I think Ultramarine is extraordinary, extraordinary and brilliant, and it keeps it up the whole way through. You are ''take me or leave me'' savage, and yet you write of things being so beautiful. The mixture of poetry and prose works well... Your originality is that you are deliberately talking to yourself. What I mean by that is that you are writing for the words. I am a bit awe struck!'' Nicholas Mosley. The Tibetan monks say that in some sense we choose our own incarnation, yet in the dark times all I could ask was why me? When I started to write this diary the reason became clear. This is a diary which runs from January to January, but it is a diary with a difference. The poems are written in the present and then the images and feelings that they evoked took me to scenes from my past, or to relationships that had their roots in my childhood patterns of relating. I wanted to write about the terror and abuse in my childhood in the way in which I learnt to deal with it, as a gateway to the Universe and to utilise each trauma a useful tool for my art. I learnt to look at myself from the outside in in order to cope and stay sane. The links between the ''now'' and the ''back then'' came naturally, I like the way that the poems morphed into something else, something strong and yet for me profound. I like the feeling that so much ugliness can create beauty.

The men landed on a rocky outcropping first and then came the women. Lexi kept her long legs together like a good little girl, while Dixie kicked her feet in the air like a jungle girl swinging through the forest. The spit of land was surrounded by impenetrable darkness. The echoes of falling pebbles made the players think that they were closer to Hell than Heaven at that moment. They froze in place as they got their bearings. The only bright spot in view was the green. A wide shaft of sunshine broke through an opening high in the cavern ceiling. Its beam expanded to outline the entire thirty foot round area of the pin. The gulf between the fairway and the green was at least seventy five yards of nothingness. All of the players' balls were grouped together behind them on a narrow section of sand beneath an opening high up in the cavern wall. A reflective pool of water gave off an amber light for all to see. A calcium covered stalagmite rose out of the center of the glowing pool. What would have been a piece of cake shot above ground was a virtual nightmare far below the earth's mantle. If the player hit too high, the ball was bound to strike the multitude of stalactites and then fall into the abyss.

The Complete Guide to Being Evil by Laura Stephenson 4.2 Stars (13 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Youth, magic, and a luxurious Manhattan apartment, Kalara has it all. She's a classic evoker--hurling fire, ice, and electricity is her specialty. As her father always said, the classics are important. Meet Whitcomb, a powerful necromancer who doesn't want anyone discovering he's selling the souls of the dead who go through his funeral home. Kalara finds out he's also a mage, and lets him know they have that in common in an endeavor to network. His response is an attempt to teleport her into the Hudson River, and it almost works. Scared for her life, she elicits the help of a devil. Enter Evander, son of a devil. He's fresh from failing his final diablerie test, and making a deal with a mortal would save him from disgrace. He has Kalara sign an overly fair contract: in return for borrowing his power for five days, she has to give him a heart from one of his enemies so he can eat it and grow stronger. If she fails to deliver the heart, he eats Kalara's instead.

Fletcher and the Samurai (Fletcher Adventures Book 5) by John Drake (Lume Books) 4.5 Stars (2,210 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Jacob Fletcher is beset by treachery at every turn of the ship's wheel at sea and with every step on dry land. 1797. Fletcher is sent halfway round the world aboard the frigate Euphonides to fight not the French nor the Spanish, but the British East India Company. The Company already owns India, and under the charismatic Director Kilbride, it wants to invade Japan and be independent of England. Fletcher is ordered by Lord Spencer, the First Sea Lord, to stop Kilbride by any means necessary. His adventure soon tangles with that of the young Samurai lord Masahito, sent to England to get western cannons and muskets for an imminent Japanese civil war. Fighting free of a deadly trap in India, Fletcher reaches Japan with Masahito as the Samurai war begins... From boisterous Georgian London to the exotic east, Fletcher and the Samurai is the fifth instalment of the Fletcher Series. Praise for John Drake: 'Broad comedy, high drama, plenty of action, a pinch of sex... the genre has room for this cheerily debunking outsider' - Daily Mail 'Swashbuckling adventure on the high seas doesn't get much better than this... John Drake writes beautifully, and you'll be torn between savoring the words and quickly flipping the pages. Any favorable comparison to Stevenson or Patrick O'Brian is totally justified' - Nelson DeMille, #1 New York Times bestselling author
