NOT A CHANCE- Book #2 of The Enchantlings

Hope just wants to be normal—too bad that will never happen.

The last thing Hope Hallows wants is to become the latest headline. Living in a town that likes secrets, she prefers to keep hers hidden. Avoiding a nosy reporter’s questions about her ability to infuse euphoria or despair with a single touch, and those who crave this bliss, is nothing new. But having her brother’s annoying girlfriend, Berta, go missing is—especially when it makes Hope suspect number one.

As a triplet, her resemblance to her beloved dead sister causes her family to grieve even more, and her escalating supernatural skills makes Griffith, her half-human-half-Oppressor boyfriend, wary. He wants to put his unsavory past behind him—this could include Hope—since her abilities remind him of the Underworld.

In her desperate search to find Berta, she stumbles across a tunnel. Phantom voices within whisper that evil has been waiting for a new leader—and isn’t she lucky, they’ve chosen Hope.

Plus Linda is going to allow us get to know her a little better and her writing by answering a few fun questions. Plus you don’t want to miss where to find her next and her great contest—all the way at the bottom— but first let me share her amazing cover. It is gorgeous!

Heather Morique is a witch.

The problem is she doesn’t know it. Her husband Jahill was a refugee from an obscure branch of the Arawak Indians. After his death, mysterious whispers lure her to his homeland of Jamaica. Soon, she finds herself in a web of secrets, lies and illusions.

Jahill’s people worship Eyrael, the God of Wind and Sea, and his brother Sofiel, the God of Fire and Earth. The new Shaman has pitted brother against brother, and these two powerful spirits from an alternate universe fight to become the tribe’s ruling deity. Will light or darkness reign?

When Heather unwittingly summons Eyrael, these two unlikely soul mates face a dangerous fate.  The chemistry between them is more disturbing than the long-buried secrets.

A witch unawares summons a powerful spirit deity from another dimension, igniting danger from all sides in a web of deceit and danger. As dangerous as their battle is chemistry sizzling between them. #WRPBks #shapeshifter #Fantasy

Excerpt from The Summoning

A warm hand brushed the top of her cold foot. “You are silent. Is something wrong?”

Again, that electric trill at a mere touch! “No, no. I—thank you. I’d be dead now if you hadn’t rescued me.”

“Yes, you would. If you are ready now, you can repay me.”

“Repay you?” Why should she be surprised? No one did anything anymore for free, but what need had a spirit of money? “If you want cash, we’ll have to find an ATM.”

He leaned back against the coffee table, regarding her with amusement. “I do not need your money, beautiful witch. I seek only Pleasure, and I am certain you can exceed even my high expectations.”

Heather’s jaw dropped. “Pleasure? Do you mean you want me to…”

The God of Wind and Seagrinned, mischief dancing in his eyes. “Yes, Heather.” He sobered, shaking his head. “Not sex only. I want to make love to you.”

How could this creature simply assume she’d have sex with him? Shocked, yet flattered in an odd way, she arched her brows. “No.”

He straightened, staring at her as if she’dsprouted wings. “But I saved your life.”

Oh, dear God, she’d heard in certain cultures if you saved a life, that life belonged to you.

“Eyrael, I’m very, very grateful.” She folded trembling hands and met his gaze squarely. “I don’t intend to f-word you, however.”

Liar! When that’s exactly what I want.What am I saying? I’m recently widowed… Right…by a man who betrayed me.Why not pay my debt? Pleasant repayment.

Who was she kidding? Tempted or not, she couldn’t have sex with a total stranger.

He laughed, the melody this time with a touch of bitterness—or surprise that anyone would refuse him. “So be it.” He rose, beautiful, graceful as his sea. “Then I shall take my leave.”

Turning away, he hesitated, then again faced her. “Did you commit crimes against the People?”

Heather closed her eyes, shaking her head. “I did nothing. For some reason, Taino is convinced I caused my husband’s death.” She opened her eyes and met the question in Eryael’s. “As I said, he died in a fiery car accident. We weren’t—I had nothing to do with it.”

“I must warn you Taino and Sofiel are not finished with you. Heather, you are in danger. The Shaman intends to exact his misbegotten revenge.

Let’s Get to Know Linda Better

When I find a new author, the first thing I seek out is their story about their first book, their “big break”, or “the call”. Please share yours.

My break came when an author friend, Toni Sweeney (also makes dynamite trailers) mentioned that I should submit my rather taboo unpublished manuscript to her publisher, Double Dragon, a Canadian publisher.  I did. I was sitting at work, typing away when the phone rang and DDP told me they’d publish Gemini Rising.  It’s a good story I think but is definitely for those who enjoyed Flowers in the Attic, though GR is a dark fantasy. It has now been re-released by Lot’s Cave Publishing under my pen named, Bianca Swan, as Her Brother’s Wife.  The subject matter is rather sensitive.

My characters usually have a favorite brew(Ie: Hope=tequila, Sabrina=coffee, Carman=margaritas, Olivia= Vodka & Tonic etc), how about you? If it’s your own concoction, please share the recipe.

Like your characters, each of mine has a favorite drink, except of course the vampires. Well, actually, they do have a favorite—blood!

In the Summoning, the heroine is very, very partial to Crown Royal—straight—until she meets the hero and pulls herself out of the bottle.  She had reason to drink, having lost her infant son months ago.  She introduces the hero to Crown, and he decides that he likes the concoction: Crown & Coke

Many people have a ‘signature expression’(Ie: my character, Hope from Destiny Calling, often says “For Goodness Sake”). What expression are you known for—or would you like to be known for?

My slogan for my brand is ‘Out of the Ordinary, into the Extraordinary”.  I hope it means something to my readers!

Nothing is more rewarding than a genuine laugh and a good sense of humor. What can always make you laugh?  Twizzlers. No, seriously!  I laugh a lot at myself. I am so clumsy and get lost going out of my driveway. But I love good sarcasm and a dry wit to deliver it.

My character, Carman (from Grandma Must Die), loves makeup. What’s your “weapon of choice”in cosmetics that you can’t live without?  

I need mascara.  My lashes are not too dark and need that boost. Otherwise, my eyes don’t stand out at all. I don’t mean they look like empty eye sockets, just no ‘snap’.

My Enchantlings Series feature bikers. Would you call yourself a “backseat biker”,a “motorcycle mama”,or a “no-way jose’” kinda gal when it comes to motorcycles?

No-way Jose!  I added the exclamation mark because I’m afraid of motorcycles (well, moving ones.)

My character, Olivia (Liv) from Evil Speaks Softly has always wanted to be a writer. What about you? Did you always want to be a writer?

I always wanted to be a horse trainer—one with the talent and finesse to produce a high-schooled mount.  But alas, though I was a decent rider, I couldn’t achieve my perfection. What other profession(s) have you had?  I was a Legal Assistant for many more years than I care to admit. In 2014, I retired from the Legal Department at MD Anderson Cancer to write full time.

Writing and marketing a book is hard work. Share your best “author tip”. 

I really don’t have one.  Like most writers, I think, I’m struggling with budget and promotion. If I’d hit on the right formula, the budget might be under less strain!

The post Linda Nightingale and her new release The Summoning appeared first on Author Maureen L. Bonatch.

Everything can be happiness and rainbows, then—WHAM—Life knocks you down and your life changes.

Change is a fact of life. I had a calendar with inspirational sayings across the bottom of each page. My favorite was, still is, that change happens. It’s how we deal with change that counts. My life changed several times because of Hubs’ job. Being an at-will employee, his job could change at any moment. Promotion, demotion, let go. Then, we’d move. My reaction varied from rah-rah cheerleader (when we had kids at home) to tears and words that shouldn’t be repeated. LOL The only constant was our love for each other and the strength of our marriage.

Writing can be done anywhere.

Have laptop, will travel. During one of those downtimes, I was well into a new story. Since I knew the drill, I signed on with a temp agency for secretarial work. Because I have a long-time friend who gets up at 5 am to write each morning then goes to her day job, I followed her example and continued with the story. Then, my mother’s Alzheimer’s got worse, and my sister, her caregiver, needed breaks. Living one and a half hours away meant I could help on weekends. And then, Hubs’ mother’s health went downhill, and she went into a nursing home. Same hour and a half away. Hubs’ was working full time then, so we added visits to his mom on the weekends—along with running errands for his elderly aunt.

By then, I needed sleep more than writing, stress rose, and my creative muse departed for parts unknown. The story was set aside. That was about fifteen years ago. More changes. We lost all three “moms” and gained five grandchildren. Life is like that. My muse returned, I retired and had more time to write (10 novels and several short stories).

This winter, I found that long-lost story.

It became NUMBERS NEVER LIE, a romantic suspense.

Maggie Sinclair’s life was going along marvelously.

Until her brother’s fatal car crash. Her life changed dramatically.

NUMBERS NEVER LIE

A Romantic Suspense

By Diane Burton

Release Date:  July 9, 2018

Length: approx. 80,000 words

Available at Amazon http://a.co/gUmO9wZ

Free with Kindle Unlimited

Blurb for NUMBERS NEVER LIE:

A shocking secret brings danger to Jack Sinclair and his sister Maggie.

As kids, they were the fearless threesome. As adults, Jack’s an accountant; Drew, a lawyer; Maggie, a teacher and camping troop leader. Upon returning from a weekend camping trip, Maggie receives horrifying news. She refuses to believe her brother Jack’s fatal car crash was an accident. If the police won’t investigate, she’ll do it herself. Convincing Drew Campbell to help is her only recourse.

Drew Campbell was too busy to return his best friend’s phone call. Too busy to attend a camping meeting important to his teen daughter. Too busy to stay in touch with Jack. Logic and reason indicate Jack’s accident was just that–an accident caused by fatigue and fog. Prodded by guilt, he’ll help Maggie even if he thinks she’s wrong.

A break-in at Jack’s condo convinces Maggie she’s right. Then her home is searched. What did Jack dothat puts Maggie in danger?

Numbers Never Lie Excerpt:

Maggie Sinclair wondered for the tenth time that morning why she hadn’t had her head examined before agreeing to Ellen’s offer. The week before, Maggie called off the trip when not one parent volunteered to chaperone. She hated disappointing the girls who had been crushed when their leader moved away. For the past two months, they talked about camping again. But week after week they returned with the same news. Their mothers refused, and their dads were too busy.

So when Ellen said her dad would help, the girls went wild. And Maggie, who should’ve known better, believed Ellen who swore she’d asked and her father agreed. Maggie should have followed up with a phone call, but years of avoiding Drew Campbell prevailed. Years of unreciprocated longing—from when her heart first took notice, through the years when he was single, then when he was married. Except for that one time, she never let him know. Avoidance was best.

Now here she was needing his help with the girls.

Preparing them for a week-long camping trip to Isle Royale had been Trish Morrow’s goal when she started the group four years ago. The girls loved roughing it. They just needed more hiking and camping experience before tackling the primitive island in Lake Superior.

Though they’d gotten a late start this morning because of the fog, Maggie noticed the girls’ energy start to flag after the fifth mile of the hike. That was when she put Drew Campbell at the front of the line. From the rear, she watched him trying to set a faster pace—especially after Gretchen’s assurance that they could keep up. The man was in a world of hurt even if he was making a concerted effort not to show it. He looked so trim, so athletic, Maggie had assumed he was in good shape.

Typical desk jockey. He probably got his exercise in a climate-controlled gym. No, wait. In a health club.

For better or worse—and she was afraid worsewas the operative word—she was stuck with him for the next thirty hours.

Are we having fun yet?  

She mocked herself as she tromped through the woods with eight tough little girls on the brink of womanhood and her brother’s best friend. From the back of the line, Maggie watched his long-legged stride and the way his navy golf shirt revealed his strong shoulders andthe way his obviously new jeans conformed to his butt. She lifted the tail of the bandanna knotted around her neck and wiped the sweat from her upper lip. She couldn’t blame the sun for the heat coursing through her.

Okay, Sinclair, she told herself, keep your mind on the matter at hand. And not how good Campbell’s butt looked in tight new jeans.

Good Lord, she felt fifteen again—instead of thirty-four. Her stomach in knots, her skin on fire. Lusting after the man who said she kissed like a guppy.

Numbers Never Lie is available at Amazon.

Now a Little About Lynn’s Story- Avenging Aingeal

Aingeal Cochran is on a mission to save humanity from itself when suddenly she’s staring head-on at her forgotten past. Lukas Everhard must bring her up to speed regarding the real enemy before allowing himself to love her completely. In learning about her past and mission, Aingeal realizes the best is yet to be and she will do anything to protect those she loves. For Lukas, Aingeal is the mission.

Bound by vengeance, she is humanity’s one hope…

Excerpt for Avenging Aingeal:

“You know the rules here. No fighting in the mess hall.” The object didn’t remove itself from my body.

I whirled furious, jerking my arm away, energy in both hands now and was stopped short by the man who stood before me. I was not a small woman, yet this man dwarfed me.  Slowly, my gaze moved from his chest to his wide shoulders to his face and stopped there. Ice blue eyes stared at me without one bit of emotion attached to the look. He’s one cold cookie.I blinked rapidly almost as if I had been hit in the gut. This man was not going to take my crap in any way, shape or form. While I might be able to fool Darien somewhat as I had learned since I had arrived, I would never be able to fool this one.

Then there was the fact I felt more aware of him sexually than I had been with anyone else. Ever. There was a charisma about him which made me want to throw myself into his arms and beg to be taken.  And it was more than his physical appearance because if truth be told, this man looked good…the best I had ever seen…again a rarity for me to note. It was as if he were palpable under my hands even though we weren’t touching. My crotch tightened once more and I shook my head to clear my errant thoughts.

“Told you.” A snide voice commented somewhere off to my left.

I turned to look at my accuser, electricity leaping to my hand yet again. Some days I couldn’t control it at all. This could be a problem.

Stepping in front of me, the big man’s forefinger jabbed my chest in a hard push. “You. Me. In the sparring room immediately.”

I watched as he walked out the door, all predatory-like and with more purpose than I had seen anyone in this place have since my arrival. I eyed everyone else and realized it wouldn’t matter what I said, they were going to see if their man could best me. Sighing, I also knew I had brought this on myself. Vowing to make his fall gentle, I shook my head and followed him down the main corridor, wondering if I should even bother to introduce myself. I ran up to walk next to him and before I could even start, I was cut off by his raised hand.

“Don’t bother. I know who you are.” He kept his eyes straight forward.

Frowning, I watched him for a minute. “Yeah, but I don’t know who you are, now do I?”

A woman with elemental powers must learn who she is before she can help save the Earth. Avenging Aingeal Mystic Realms Anthology $0.99 https://www.amazon.com/Mystic-Realms-Collection-Paranormal-Romances-ebook/dp/B078X57PN4#MysticRealms…

Except this book birthday happens to be during a paranormal author’s favorite time of the year. What I lovingly refer to as, paranormal season. Therefore, there’s a whole lot of fun spook-tacular stuff going on packed with prizes and I’m sharing them all here for your one stop for all your treats this Halloween!

Let’s Get This Party Started off by introducing you to my

October 11th Release

The 2nd Place Winner of 2015 Golden Palm Contest of the Florida Romance Writer’s Paranormal Category—Evil Speaks Softly

Evil Speaks Softly

  Everyone has a story to tell. Even the dead.

They were never supposed to meet. Fame came easy for Liv by following in the footsteps of the female writers in her family. The cycle repeated for decades…until Liv changed the story. Her villain doesn’t like the revision—and he isn’t a fictional character. In his story, the bad guy always wins.

They were never supposed to find love. Liv never questioned her demanding nocturnal muse, or the strange incidents in her old, family home until she met Gage. His job was to watch her from afar, not reveal the truth about the curse and the stories of the dead. They’ve broken all the rules. Together they unravel secrets as they strive to stop the cycle. Liv’s ability to find love, and protect her loved ones, hangs on the fickle whims of the dead—and they’ve got nothing to lose.

Want a Taste of What Goes Bump in The Night?

Discomforting Thoughts About the Author & Evil Speaks Softly:

• As a writer who ‘writes by the seat of her pants’ Maureen’s relentless characters can be demanding in wanting their story told and often have their own agenda. They just aren’t ruthless spirits and there’s no ancient curse…that she’s aware of.
• The herniated disc Maureen suffered from while writing this story may have leaked a little extra darkness into the tale.
• Maureen’s first house had a restless spirit.
• Twins run in Maureen’s family—just no feisty triplets.
• Maureen has no knowledge of wrestling but she did watch some WWF back in the day for entertainment.
• Maureen believes she has had sleep paralysis in the past.
• Nighttime spirits don’t terrify Maureen much since she’s up at the crack of dawn and can barely stay awake after 9:30 p.m.
