After all, monsters are sometimes real. Warning: recommended for mature readers. Contains scenes of Horror, Violence, and domestic abuse, M15+ "William Cook tells a gruesome story with a sense of authenticity that makes you question with considerable unease if it really is fiction, after all." - Graham Masterton, author of The Manitou and Descendant "This man is simply scary. There is both a clinical thoroughness and a heartfelt emotional thoroughness to his writing. He manages to shock as well as empathize, to scare as well as acclimatize, yet beneath it all is a well read intelligence that demands to be engaged. I loved Blood Related.

When you turn eighteen, you go through Trials to get your abilities from power sources. Except I was born with mine, and that's never happened before. Think hiding telepathic and telekinetic powers is scary? Try hiding the fact that an evil power source called the Blue Star has been showing me visions of my death if I don't use its power.

A Matter of Necessity by Patrice Wyman 5.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 13 minutes ago

"What if I were to pretend to be a boy?" Truth to tell, the question that set Jaimy Mallory on such a curious course, was purely a matter of necessity. Rayce Mallory's well-ordered life was surprisingly turned upside down by young Master Jaimy's arrival in New Mexico, despite the fact that it had been prearranged by the boy's father before his death. There was something curiously strange about the spunky kid that Rayce could not quite put his finger on. The boy tended to be a bit girlish, but Rayce was determined to do his best to make a man of him. It was rumored, that Jaimy's well-kept secret was laid bare on a moonlit night, by the man of her dreams. Was the rumor true? In due course, one might say that marriage was the honorable thing to do, but was it? Surely, it was not---a matter of necessity?"" And---what about Rayce's trip to London, accompanied by his former lover, Rhena Winters? Yes! What about that? It does beg the question---is Jaimy the type of woman to sit at home gritting her teeth, and twiddling her thumbs, while her husband is gallivanting across the waters with a seductive, calculating woman like Rhena Winters? Hmmmmmm. It does not seem likely---does it? About the Author~ After spending the major portion of her life reading Historical Romances, Patrice Wyman decided---"I can do that!"

Need You Now by Ali Parker (BrixBaxter Publishing) 4.6 Stars (400 Reviews)    Price verified 27 minutes ago

The most beautiful girl in the world, and she's fiery mad at me. It's not really my fault. I'm a reporter. Digging up stories is my job. Never in a million years did I expect my latest piece to create an enemy out of the one woman I'd give anything to date. She's tough, beautiful, and tied to my past in a way I didn't imagine possible. The world should know that she's also generous, the center of a big story on a large donation to the town festival in her dad's name. But she's not interested in the limelight or attention. She wants to take care of the animals in her care and give back any chance she can. I, on the other hand, want a chance at love. And there's not much I won't do to make that happen. She might be appeasing me to keep her story safe, but I'm on the hunt for far more than a headline. I need her now. Today. Tomorrow. Forever.

A kind young girl named Chloe, whose mysterious mystical gifts include precognition, plays an integral role in events that move steadily to a shocking, dramatic resolution. ********************************************* Excerpt: Time seemed to change into slow motion as Sarah landed on the carpet. She saw blood spurt from her wound. Her mind filled with surrealistic images, reminding her of Salvador Dali paintings that she had studied in college in an art history class. She found herself falling to the floor of St. Faustina Church. The front doors of the church had been blown open by a powerful wind that blew through the church. On the altar there was a huge Eucharistic host from which red and white beams of light radiated. She heard a voice in her mind, and she found herself responding to the voice. "The wind blows cold and freezes the land. Do you not seek warmth?" "Your grace is sufficient for me," Sarah replied. "The sun is setting as the day departs. Do you not seek light?" "The light of your face is sufficient for me." "Your blood flows from you. Do you not seek life?" "Your life sustains me, and I live through your Body and Blood." "So be it. Then live through me, with me, and in me." "So be it," she agreed. The red and white beams of light radiating from the Eucharistic host on the altar became so ...

The Memoirs of Irene Adler: The Irene Adler Trilogy by San Cassimally (Green Okapi Press) 3.8 Stars (23 Reviews)    Price verified 27 minutes ago

In the hopes of showing that the character Irene Adler has much more to give than a walk-on role in one Sir Arthur Conan Doyle story, author San Cassimally disguises her as male private investigator Mr. Dai Lernière, and weaves seven exciting cases into one compelling fictional memoir. Upon their return from a stint in Australia, Holmes suggests to Adler that she take on some investigations of her own, and she does just that. Each story provides an engaging, mind-bending mystery in which Adler and her Club des As uncover clues and give power to the powerless in battles against evil, greedy, and conniving foes. Whether the case involves an Irish patriot accused of treason and facing the gallows, the search for a kidnapped toddler, or a royal bank's involvement in underground slave trade, Adler uses her gifts of deduction and wit to solve the mystery and bring wrongdoers to justice. These collected memoirs of Irene Adler deliver the intellectual challenge and sardonic humor that follows in the Sherlock Holmes tradition -- and adds to it a flare only achieved through a woman's touch. Return to 221b Baker Street and experience the Holmesian world expanding with the turn of every page.

Watami: A Novel of 'The Serpentine' by Stephen Donald Huff 5.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 35 minutes ago

Denizens of Watami are more human than human. Though 'normal' citizens hysterically fear them as obscene chimeras, the pastoral Nascosi way of life embraces principles of passivity and altruism to selfless - some would say 'suicidal' - extremes. When a deviant dictator determines to exploit these deep-seated genocidal animosities for political gain, he finds the peace-loving Nascosi 'morphs' to be easy targets and convenient scapegoats in promotion of his sinister designs. Since Nascosi refuse to defend themselves, they will ultimately disappear into the vaporous anonymity of extinction, yet their canny biological technology will survive them. As with all leaps of evolution, Anzian-kind will subsequently rise on a gush of gore. Afterward, humankind will be unknown.

Apologizing For Vietnam by Lisa Lieberman (Passport Press) 3.5 Stars (2 Reviews)    Price verified 38 minutes ago

Shattered by the suicide of her cousin Allen, a Vietnam veteran, Lisa Lieberman embarked on a journey of understanding, reading memoirs and historical accounts of the Vietnam war in an effort to make sense of a war she'd only experienced second hand. Drafted in 1968, Allen served with the 4th Psychological Operations Group (PSYOP) at Tan Son Nhut airport, its Saigon headquarters. The unit came under heavy fire during PSYOP missions and Allen saw many of his comrades die. He shot himself in April 2002, six months after the US invasion of Afghanistan. Lieberman's reflections on Vietnam and on the moral injuries suffered by combatants like her cousin give all of us something to think about as the US teeters on the brink of another deadly war.

Missile Hymnal Amulet by G. F. Boyer 5.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 40 minutes ago

These are poems of survival -- especially of religious indoctrination that colors everything. At the same time, these poems celebrate a rich natural world: the physical and sensory world of plants, animals, and insects; the innocence and presence of nature; and even an animism that overpowers Christian fundamentalism and the increasingly revealed indifference of God. Through it all, time, aging, and dark humor provide a strong pulse, saying life will go on with or without us. The title's missile, hymnal, and amulet represent the three sides of this conundrum, as rage, beauty, and love interweave in these crisp and incisive poems."That's how bayonets are made, you say. The wound is triangularand doesn't heal easily."

It combines elements of action and comedy to create a narrative that promises to keep the reader engaged, thinking, and laughing. Set in the near future, Space.Man explores the misadventures of Captain Jordan Taylor of the U.S. Space Corp. A man selected for a mission of isolated deep space travel because of his introversion and preference for being alone. Due to bureaucracy and mismanagement, he is quickly forgotten about and left to fend for himself alone in outer space. Desperate to survive and return to Earth, while also dealing with faulty government equipment built by the lowest bidder, he finds himself immersed in a much larger world where the fate of the galaxy is in his hands. He must join a group of colorful and strange characters that he wants nothing to do with and find a way to bring them all together as a team to stop the spread of an uncontrollable galactic threat. Enemies are made, friendships are developed, and the galaxy is saved through sarcastic comments, dirty slippers, and a healthy dose of pop culture references. Space.Man easily transitions from scientific and technical prose to memorable, laugh out loud comedic action with a few shenanigans thrown in for good measure. Space.Man contains action and humor that will interest the casual science fiction fan or mainstream audience, but also tastefully slips in references and Easter Eggs that will keep the hardcore geek entertained.

Academy Award Winning Sisters: The Lives of Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine by Charles River Editors 3.5 Stars (122 Reviews)    Price verified 30 minutes ago

*Includes pictures. *Includes both actresses' quotes about each other and their careers. *Includes a bibliography for further reading. *Includes a table of contents. "Famous people feel that they must perpetually be on the crest of the wave, not realising that it is against all the rules of life. You can't be on top all the time, it isn't natural." - Olivia de Havilland "You know, I've had a helluva life. Not just the acting part. I've flown in an international balloon race. I've piloted my own plane. I've ridden to the hounds. I've done a lot of exciting things." - Joan Fontaine Olivia de Havilland is one of the last few living actresses who worked during the Golden Era of Hollywood, but also one of the most decorated, winning dozens of awards over the course of a 50 year career. Among those, she most notably won the Academy Award for Best Actress for To Each His Own (1946) and The Heiress (1949), more than a decade after she got her start as an 18 year old in Hollywood. Ironically, de Havilland was in California in part because the young British girl who had been born in Tokyo stopped in the States for medical treatment. Of course, de Havilland isn't well remembered for any of those accolades or other movies but because she played Melanie Hamilton in Gone With the Wind (1939), perhaps the most famous movie in American history. Although she was a veteran actress at the time, de Havilland's career hadn't progressed much since she started, and rumor has it that she eventually got the role after her own sister, Joan Fontaine, was asked to audition for the part and recommended Olivia instead. Olivia was ultimately nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and became a household name in her adopted country overnight. Having been typecast in light romantic comedies before Gone With the Wind, that performance ensured de Havilland subsequently had a long, productive and versatile career making everything from Westerns and dramas. Of those movies, ...

Loving her Highland Thief (Time to Love a Highlander Book 1) by Maeve Greyson (Dragonblade Publishing, Inc.) 4.5 Stars (2,034 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Welcome to book 1 in this exciting new series Time to Love a Highlander from award winning author Maeve Greyson. If you love passionate tales that make you laugh, cry, and stay up entirely too late turning those pages, then this Scottish historical time travel romance is the one for you. Alpha male Highlanders, fiercely independent females, and love that ignores the boundaries of time. Escape to the Highlands no matter the century! Stay? Lose all she's ever known. Go? Lose the love of a lifetime. As a struggling, 21st century farmer, Kenzie MacMartin knows if she doesn't recover that registered ram that cost her a bundle, her dog won't be the only one howling in the Highlands. And to make matters worse, when she chases that fool sheep through a cave, she discovers a troupe of trespassing re-enactors mucking up her land with some kind of clan skirmish complete with realistic weapons, monstrous warhorses, and a restless herd of Highland cows. The only upside is their strikingly handsome leader -- until he kidnaps her. Mathias Stronach questions his sanity in laying claim to the strangely dressed woman and her vicious wee dog. Perhaps he should have let the MacPhersons take her prisoner. Then, she would've distracted them instead of him. Such daring and fire in this feisty lass. He'd bet his best dagger; her passions burn just as fiercely. And that fine round backside of hers nestled between his thighs as they ride. Makes a man think twice about choices he's made. Like promising to marry a woman he's never loved so he can be the next chieftain of Clan Stronach. When Kenzie realizes she's barged into the thirteenth century, her priority is getting back to that cave and hoping if she retraces her steps, she'll find her way back home. But vengeful clans, a medieval sociopath, and the mesmerizing warrior who draws her in like a bee to sweet clover thwarts that priority at every turn. Her head knows better. Her heart refuses to listen. She misses her family, is ...

Madden: A Grumpy Rock Star Romance (A Rebels Havoc) by Brooke O'Brien 4.6 Stars (173 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

USA Today Bestselling author Brooke O'Brien brings all of the hate-to-love feels in this highly anticipated conclusion to the A Rebels Havoc series. Madden Cole is considered a rock 'n' roll god, and all the women want him. Except for me. After working my butt off as a journalist for years, I've heard the rumors about him and his band and have read all about their dirty scandals in the headlines. When I land a job as a writer for Limelight magazine, I'll stop at nothing to make a good impression. Even if it means agreeing to a sit-down interview with the bad boys of A Rebels Havoc. They're making a name for themselves by soaring to the top of the charts with multiplatinum records and sold-out tours. Madden is cold and closed-off, but the more I get to know him, the more he starts to open up to me. As hard as I've tried to resist wanting him, when he turns on his sweet-talking charm, all the walls I've built around me crumble. They say what goes up must come down, and the band is forced to face the downside of fame. Rumors, lies, and blackmail threaten Madden's life and the career he and the guys have worked so hard to build. He doesn't know about the secret I've been keeping. And I fear when he finds out the truth, it could destroy everything. Author's Note: Madden is a standalone and can be read without reading any other books in the A Rebels Havoc series. If you prefer to read in order, start with Brix as the stories do interconnect.

Collects the novellas Girl of Great Price, Immaterial Evidence, Yakuza Territory, and Chimera Effect: The public can't know they exist. It could start a panic. The average citizen is perfectly fine with superheroes saving the day or causing mayhem in movies and comic books. But if those suprahumans actually walked among us, what would happen then? In a crumbling post-war city of the future, private eye Charlie Madison stands in the gap. The last of his kind, a champion of lost causes, he confronts corrupt cops, violent bratva and yakuza, doing whatever he can for the average citizen in need of help. A war veteran with plenty of hardship in his past, he's not afraid to go toe-to-toe with the powers that be, whether they're in the criminal underworld or the federal government. Madison has encountered more than his share of unusual suspects over the years. But this time he's up against something he's never seen before, on or off the battlefield: people with unnatural abilities. Suprahumans. Gifted ones. Their powers are too incredible to believe, too dangerous in this unstable world. Their existence is a secret guarded by government agents who mindwipe anyone encountering them. For Charlie Madison, the Suprahuman Secret emerges when a little girl goes missing and no ransom demand is made. He takes the case, but time isn't on his side. After 48 hours in this town, it's unlikely an abducted child will be found in one piece. As the mystery unfolds, Madison uncovers a bizarre truth about the girl that seems impossible. But it could explain why she was kidnapped - and why she might still be alive.

Not at all what I was expecting. Mesmerizing. An awesome read. That'll teach me to try to figure out the plot." "If you like science fiction and understanding dreams, you will love this book. I've always wanted to remember my dreams in detail and always thought how cool would it be to capture them and re-live them, knowing you were in a dream and knowing you could do anything you wanted. This book combines science with magic and adventure. Good guys and bad guys. Moral dilemmas. My only disappointment is it had to end... " "The story has plenty of twists and turns that always keep you guessing. The ending was very good, everything was resolved, but then the epilogue threw me for a loop and I'm still trying to figure out what happened (which is awesome)." "This was such a unique idea, I couldn't put it down. I had to see where it would go next, and throughout the whole story it kept my interest. Clever author. Good job!" "I loved that I couldn't guess all the ...

American Legends: The Life of Rock Hudson by Charles River Editors 3.5 Stars (140 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

*Includes pictures. *Includes Hudson's own quotes about his life and career. *Includes a bibliography for further reading. *Includes a table of contents. "I'm notorious for giving a bad interview. I'm an actor and I can't help but feel I'm boring when I'm on as myself." - Rock Hudson A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, readers can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. In the middle of the 20th century, there was perhaps no leading man as famous and popular as Rock Hudson, who would star in both comedies and dramas on the way to being named one of the Top 10 Stars of the Year for eight years straight (1957-1964). Whether he was starring in a comedy with Doris Day or in a drama opposite Elizabeth Taylor, the tall, impeccably dressed actor couldn't help but make girls in the audience swoon, and he was recognized as one of Hollywood's biggest heartthrobs. The success of his peak years ensured that Hudson would remain a star over the course of 4 decades, and he appeared in about 70 films during his career. Today, however, Rock Hudson might be better known among contemporary audiences for his personal life. Acting in a more conservative era, Hudson struggled to keep his homosexuality out of the news for fear it would destroy his career, even though many of his Hollywood contemporaries were aware of it. After Hudson died of AIDS in 1985, perhaps the first major celebrity to die of the disease, details of his personal life began to be publicized, sometimes amidst messy legal battles. It soon became clear just what kind of pains Hudson took to keep his personal life private, and his friendships with men were highly scrutinized, as was his marriage to his agent's secretary, ...
