Talent to Burn by Laura Welling #NewRelease #Kindle

 I'm thrilled to share the debut book release of Laura Welling, an amazingly creative author and awesome critique partner/friend. I'm so proud of her and this book is GREAT! Hope you'll check it out.

 

TALENT TO BURN by LAURA WELLING

Passion burns. Betrayal scars.

Cat Wilson grew up a misfit among misfits. She couldn’t read minds, see the future, or start fires like the other Talented kids inside the shadowy Grey Institute. Finally she ran, leaving her beloved brother, Eric, behind. She’s been running ever since.

When she learns that Eric has escaped, leaving deadly fires in his wake, Cat is torn between fear for her brother, and unwanted attraction to the messenger, a charming, Talented ex-con who lives for the next adrenaline rush.

Jamie Murphy is sure his group of outcast Talents can help Eric—if they can get to him before the cops or the Institute, and before he kills again. Cat’s aversion to Talented bad boys is like a wall of ice, but to his surprise, he doesn’t have to use an ounce of his own unique gift to find a way through it.

Yet locating Eric is only the beginning. In the battle to pull him back from the brink, Cat must find the courage to unlock a fearsome Talent of her own. And pray the psychic backdraft doesn’t destroy everyone she loves.

 

Laura Welling, Author

Author Bio:

When’s she’s not writing, Laura Welling wears a lot of other hats: mother, farmer, and software engineer. She's Australian but lives in the United States on a horse farm, which she shares with her family, an over-sized dog, and various horses, cats and chickens. She is a compulsive reader of all genre fiction, who started reading before the age of two, and never stopped. She wrote her first “book” when she was five—a spy story, which has since been joined in a bottom drawer by various other early attempts.

This book was inspired by some of her favorite stories: Anne McCaffrey’s science fiction novels, Marvel’s X-Men comics, and The X-Files television series.

Lucky 13 Blog H O P! #prizes #halloween

Happy Halloween! What's your favorite part of the festivities? The costumes, the candy or the decorations and haunted houses/trails? However you have your fun, hope you'll scroll down to enter to win some great prizes as part of our Lucky 13 Blog Hop.

For me, it's the decorations. I love hanging lights, carving pumpkins, and displaying all sorts of scary creatures. For years, we had a haunted trail on our property. It was soooo much work, but it was sooo much fun. I think it's my dad's fault that I love decorating so much. When I was a kid, on Halloween night he would hang a dummy from a tree with a strap. And then every time a trick-or-treater came up our sidewalk, he'd make a scary noise and then drop the dummy. Kids loved it! They'd come back to our house two or three times, I think.

My experiences with Halloween are part of the reason I love writing about ghosts! They're mischievous, a little (a lot?) scary, and very mysterious. That's what makes them so fun to write about. My trilogy, HAUNTINGS AT INNER HARBOR, features a 100 year-old apartment building in downtown Baltimore. Imagine the ghosts that residents have to deal with! Bad ghosts...monster ghosts...and even a matchmaking ghost. I'm thrilled to announce that the third book in the series will be releasing very soon. The first two are available now! Hope you'll check them out.

He doesn’t believe in ghosts, she’s a ghost who needs his help. 
Available now! Decadent Publishing Amazon (Kindle) Barnes & Noble (Nook)

A deejay, a cop, and a matchmaking ghost.

Cover Reveal for STOLEN INNOCENCE by Vivi Dumas #CoverReveal #PNR

Vivi Duma
Author of multicultural paranormal romance

Check out this HOT!! cover for Vivi Dumas' upcoming release, STOLEN INNOCENCE. This third book in the series won't release until 10/4, but you can get a peek at it today. Be sure to scroll down for information on how you can win an ARC of this multicultural paranormal romance!

 

They say ignorance is bliss, but when it comes to love and mating, Charity Lovell wished someone had schooled her on the ins and outs. She fell hard when she saw the beautiful face of the fair-haired demon as he lay broken in Lucifer’s dungeon. Her body ached for him. Her heart cried for him. This had to be her mate, right? Who else could make her trade her soul to the Devil to save someone she didn’t know? Someone should’ve told her love wasn’t quite as straight forward as that.

Damon lived an uncomplicated life, even as the alpha of the Lake Charles pack and the son of Lucifer. He should’ve taken a mate years ago, but held on to the hope of love. Only one female came close to making him believe he still had a chance for happiness. Yet, her heart belonged to someone else. Once again, the feeling is back, stronger than ever. And again, his female has pledged herself to another. Damn demons were ruining his love life. This time Damon plans to fight for what was his and win his rightful mate.

Releasing on 10/14! (That means you still have time to read the first two books in the series.)

Blake and Missy's book is going to release tomorrow! Altered Frequency (Hauntings at Inner Harbor, Book 2) releases Friday, May 17th. And without further stalling, here is the cover for their story:

 

 

   After losing her father and brother in the line of duty, Missy Prescott vows never to get involved with anyone who has a dangerous job. Blessed with a golden voice, she takes a job as a disc jockey with her own late-night lovelorn dedication show on a popular radio station in Baltimore.

   Blake Decker has never had a family. He has come to count on the only family he knows—his brothers on the police force. He’s a one-night-stand kind of guy when it comes to relationships.

   Betty McAllister, the caring woman who used to live in Missy’s apartment, is now a ghost. She refuses to cross over until Blake—whom she viewed as her own son—is happily in love. She thinks Missy is the perfect girl for him.

   Missy and Blake need to keep each other at a distance as they work together to help Betty find a way to cross over. But when danger lurks, will Missy and Blake lose everything?

 

Available for purchase on Friday, May 17th at Decadent Publishing and Amazon.com

You can win a $10 Amazon/BN certificate on this blog, too! Details are below, but in the meantime, here's an excerpt from Hereafter (Book 1, Hauntings at Inner Harbor), my contemporary romance with a ghostly twist. And guess what? Altered Frequency (Book 2, Altered Frequency) released just a few days ago!

Angel’s body tingled. Her skin rippled with electricity, and she recognized the signs that she’d be transported soon.

Yes. Finally. She closed her eyes, wishing she could rush the transition from her world to his. Cool air prickled her skin and she stood in the man’s dark apartment. With moonlight shining through the sheers, she could make out his form on the sofa.

He jumped up and faced her.

She wanted to speak, but she couldn’t.

“The electricity went off again,” he said.

She frowned.

He stepped closer. “Ghosts don’t exist.”

No. He couldn’t banish her again. She needed something in this world. The lights flickered, sizzled, and then went off again.

Please don’t tell me to go away; it makes me go away. She might not have a voice in this world, but she could at least think it. She would not go, not when potential answers waited in this place.

The man stepped closer. “What are you doing? Angie, why do you keep coming here?”

Don’t tell me to leave…don’t tell me to leave. Pictures flew into her mind. People smiling and laughing. A tree in the corner with white lights and boxes under it….

He’d called her Angie.

“You know me?” Her words came out a whisper, but at least they finally came out. Tears tracked down her cheeks. The electricity flickered on, and then, stayed off. The air stopped sizzling. She blinked to adjust her eyes to the darkness again.

“Christ, this can’t be happening.” He moved his fingers over something in his hand and then pocketed it.

She closed the distance between them and grasped his upper arms, pleading him with her eyes because her voice had left her again.

“Yes, I know you.” He glanced away and looked out the window, let out a huff of breath, and then gazed at her. “Your name is Angie Barsotti and you used to live here.”

No wonder the place felt so familiar. Her spirits lifted. He could help her find out who she was, help her find out what was going on.

“And,” he dragged a hand through his hair. “You died and I don’t believe in ghosts.”

Cold air, cold as ice tore through her, ripping her from the apartment.

Heartbreaker Blog H O P

Heartbreakers…. We’ve all met one.

Will they be forever a bad boy, or can they be changed?

Almost 300 bloggers have giveaways and posts about those men we love!

But that's not all....
We have THREE grand prizes. You as a reader can go to EACH blog and comment with your email address and be entered to win. Yep, you can enter over 200 times! Be sure to scroll down to check out those prizes!

 

   Are Heartbreakers bad to the bone, or scarred? Are they incapable of love, or hurting too deep to give love a try again? Heartbreakers might get a bad rep, but sometimes they’re coming from an honest place. Maybe he’s been scorned one too many times by a lover who leaves him for another. Or told he’s not good enough…and believes it.

   In my recent release, HEREAFTER, heroine Angie views Rob as a heartbreaker at first because he refuses to believe in her. Without him, she has no chance to find out who she is, why she is a ghost, and how to escape the shadowy afterworld where she lives.

   What do you think? Can a heartbreaker ever change, or will he always remain a heartbreaker? Leave me a comment with your opinion on the matter and you’ll be entered for a $10 Amazon or Barnes & Noble Gift Card.

   Here’s a quick excerpt from HEREAFTER to shine a little light on Rob’s struggle to believe in Angie.
