An all wolf-shifter police force has been the only thing between humans and an unknown evil for centuries, but the pack is in danger of dying if they don't find their promised mates soon. Trevor Burbank is a shifter cop in a world of humans who don't know the evil that wants them dead. If he does his job well, the humans will never need to know, but he feels like he's working against the clock, because his pack is about to die. The females have all been killed, and the half-breeds they make when they mate with humans aren't skilled or strong enough to fight. Gabriela Carmi has lost everything that means anything to her way too fast and now she feels like she's losing her mind, too. On a quest to find something that won't reveal itself to her, she feels as if she's pining for someone who may not exist, so when an evil presence begins to follow her, she isn't sure if her mind is slowly falling apart, or if the impossible is actually coming true. When an instant attraction sparks between her and the dangerously sexy police officer sent to help her, it makes matters worse and better at the same time. It's a race against time to find the angel/human hybrid One True Mates that the pack's spiritual leaders say truly exist. Saving the shifter clans is on everyone's mind, except for the chosen, the One True Mates, most of whom don't even know who or what they really are, or why they seem to be slowly losing their minds. You've NEVER read a shifter romance, or a fated mates romance like this before. This is a republication of One True Mate 1, after a rights reversion back to Lisa Ladew.

The Rain Maker by Michael Martin (1 Review)    Price verified 7 hours ago

Jacqueline Caldwell "JC" Macy has won the prestigious Sir Griffith Bascome Lawrence engineering competition. Her design could become the most game-changing project Africa has ever seen -- or a huge fundraising scam. Wary from the start, JC's adoring bestie and personal assistant, Mary Josephine "MJ" Byrne sees a confederacy of profiteers: lawyers, bankers, politicians, and celebrities, lined up to enrich themselves on the backs of the world's poor. An American expat who left a promising career and fled an abusive father, MJ takes on the forces of hypocrisy -- "white saviors," the "Humanitarian-Industrial Complex," faux environmentalism, family dysfunction -- that are pushing her friend to the brink. Despite JC's astonishing gifts, MJ may be the only person who truly cares about her. A volatile genius with a mile-wide rebellious streak and a growing love for the white powder that makes escape seem easy, JC -- and her once-in-a-century project -- are on a collision course with self destruction. If not for one loyal, loving, honest friend. But is honesty enough? Is loyalty? What about love? "The complex relationship between JC and MJ greatly reminded me of Needy and Jennifer's complicated dynamic in the cult film classic Jennifer's Body. There were definitely some heavy topics in The Rain Maker, so I would advise trigger warnings for child abuse and suicide before deciding whether to read it." -- Vanessa R, NetGalley Reviewer

Main-Travelled Roads by Hamlin Garland (DigiCat) (66 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

In Hamlin Garland's Main-Travelled Roads, readers are taken on a journey through the harsh realities of rural life in the Midwest during the late 19th century. Garland's blunt and realistic prose delves into the struggles of farmers, the injustices they face, and the impact of economic hardship on families. The collection of short stories portrays the bleakness of everyday life in a raw and unfiltered manner, capturing the essence of the literary naturalism movement of the time. The stark descriptions and somber tone provide readers with a glimpse into the harshness of existence in the American heartland. Garland's keen observance of human nature and his ability to convey it through his writing makes Main-Travelled Roads a poignant and thought-provoking read. Hamlin Garland, himself a product of the Midwest and a witness to the struggles of rural life, drew inspiration from his own experiences to craft the stories in Main-Travelled Roads. His background as a farmer and his deep connection to the land shines through in his portrayal of the characters and their environments. Garland's commitment to depicting the truth of life in the Midwest adds credibility and depth to the narratives, providing readers with a glimpse into a world that is both harsh and beautiful in its simplicity. I highly recommend Main-Travelled Roads to readers who appreciate realistic portrayals of life, rich character development, and powerful storytelling. Garland's collection is a literary gem that offers valuable insights into the human condition and the struggles of those living on the margins of society.

A harrowing read." -- Steve Stred, Splatterpunk-nominated author of Sacrament and Mastodon. "Page manages to weave together strong undercurrents of cosmic horror, cult situations, splashes of sci-fi, and even some slasher flavors. There are creatures, mysteries, and creepy characters aplenty... original and engaging, with nuanced characters that aren't caricatures (and, in fact, mock the stereotypes)." -- Kyle J. Durrant, author of Beyond Dimensional Veils "One of the most intelligent, compelling, and well-written horror novels I've ever read, full stop. The sophisticated prose is fluid and colorful enough to make every scene, character, and ungodly image vividly cinematic, and there's a richness to the world that gives the story itself both a crushing weight to smash about and a delicate hand to do it with. Native Fear blends subgenres of horror so brilliantly that the transition from gnarly folk horror to epic cosmicism feels as natural as the 'monsters' in this book are unnatural. Clever, perfectly crafted, and innately subversive, this novel is one you won't be able to put down." -- Jay Alexander, author of Starving Grounds and The Lunchling OTHER PRAISE "Page's writing is much like Lovecraft's oceans: glassy smooth in places, terrifyingly brutal in others, ever dark and full of mystery. Atercosm seduces with its eerie wonders and horrifies with its glimpses beyond the veil, where fathomless revelations linger just beyond our comprehension.
