Science Fiction Fantasy Romance Fans: I've hit the mother lode!


When I came across the words 'Enchanted Bookstore', I couldn't help but want to explore the series. I would love to visit such a bookstore!

Book 1 of the Enchanted Bookstore Series: Seeking a Scribe is 99 cents on Amazon Kindle.

What's it about?

Lyra McCauley is a writer and loves fantasy novels, but until she opens a selection from bookstore owner Cullen Drake, she has no idea he's a wizard character who lives a double life inside that volume...or the story's magic will compel her from the edge of depression to adventure, danger, and love.

His gift to Lyra, the Book of Dragonspeir, was actually her copy, misplaced years ago. Lost in her pain following divorce and death, she fails to recognize him as her childhood playmate from the fantasyland. Friendship builds anew. Attraction sparks. But Lyra doubts whether a wizard is capable of love. She's torn--should she protect her fragile heart or risk new love?

Opening the book's cover, she confronts a quest: save Dragonspeir from destruction by the Black Dragon before he utilizes power of August's red moon to expand his strength and overthrow the opposing Imperial Dragon. Lyra accepts the challenge, fearing Cullen will perish if evil wins. Along with magical animal guides, Cullen helps her through many perils, but ultimately Lyra must use her own power...and time is running out.

A Native American curse on the land: The Haunting of the Hockomock Swamp.

The Haunting of The Hockomock Swamp by [Kline, H.E.]

My husband and I attend Pow Wows and have a lot of respect for the Native American culture. When I see crime shows in which a Native American's demise is mixed with a hate crime and when I read about Native American's having to get new reservation I.D.s in order to vote within 10 days of an election, it makes me sick.

Three hundred years ago, violence against Native Americans was the norm in the Colonial United States. In the Haunting of the Hockomock Swamp, one Native American stands up to the Colonists and leaves a haunted legacy.

Against the beautiful backdrop of the largest swamp in Southeastern Massachusetts, a captivating tale of mystery, magic, and murder. The Wampanoag people gave the swamp its name, with Hockomock meaning "place where spirits dwell." Devil's Swamp is what English settlers of Colonial times named it, and this is the story of an urban legend, the great Wampanoag sachem: Metacom or "King Philip," whose ghostly shapeshifter spirit still freely roams the dark, murky waters of The Hockomock Swamp ...

Young children suffering the unthinkable. A bewildering investigation. Janie Williams is living her dream as a newbie investigative reporter until she finds herself intrigued by a three-centuries-old Native American shapeshifter who is a terror to behold and is wreaking havoc! 

As the investigation expands and horrifying answers begin to emerge, she falls head over heels with her crazy sexy hot colleague and mentor Alan Needle. But what Janie could never imagine is that her efforts to solve this mystery will uncover the deepest betrayal, blood, and tragedy America has ever seen.

History can never be erased. Perhaps when your children are haunted and plagued by a mysterious illness, it is not a result of biology or science but a vengeful spirit of the past using your children as a medium for the truth.

And it's only 99 cents!

New Release! Love Inked: Book 3 in the Twisted Love Series.

Love Inked (The Twisted Love Series Book 3) by [Eaton, Stacy, Manemann, Amy]

The Twisted Love Series by writing team Stacy Eaton and Amy Manemann has been like figure skating: sometimes solo, sometimes partners as they say in the Olympics. Let me change my imagery to glitter and glory to sinister and menacing. In Love Inked, two female detectives face a serial killer. If any kind of killer can make you feel uneasy in a hurry, it's a serial killer. A murder can be a fist fight gone bad, a passion killing of an unfaithful spouse, rage over being scammed; but a serial killer does it for pleasure.

Adding to the problems are the fact that Detective Kali Mann has to take on a new, model perfect partner, Evie Harper. This new partner has a lot on her plate: making peace with Kali, helping to catch the serial killer and proving herself to be worthy in fighting crime.
