Publisher: Cecil Press

While trekking across South America, Ellie Bartlett finds a mysterious guidebook that changes the course of her journey—and her life.

Ellie dreams of a life away from the sharp edges of New York City. Away from her creepy boss, shoebox apartment, and nights spent alone eating ice-cream. She’s desperate to find happiness and love.

After losing out on yet another promotion, Ellie quits her job and buys a ticket to South America. Arriving at her hostel as a first-time backpacker, she finds a mysterious guidebook filled with cryptic messages about life and love. Intrigued, Ellie contacts the previous owner, Bella, who wrote her name under the heading THIS BOOK BELONGS TO.

Her email lands in the inbox of Jerry Townsend, an architect and widower living in San Francisco. Jerry is barely keeping his life together as he juggles raising three daughters alone and construction of a museum in memory of his late wife—Bella.

Ellie and Jerry start messaging, sharing their fears, hopes and desires. Following Bella’s advice, Ellie embarks on a six-month solo adventure across South America, and over the course of emails, texts, phone calls and video chats, Ellie and Jerry’s pen-pal friendship develops into something more…

But can you fall in love with someone you’ve never met?

Review

Great story! I found this to be very enjoyable with a lively pace, colorful characters, a emphasis on human emotions and a satisfying ending.

A word from the Author

I was a lass about age six when I started writing the songs of my soul with a semi-sharpened pencil without an eraser. I found torn papers discarded from perfect two-lined books to pen my thoughts. Not grasping how my ideas aligned with my words, I wrote verses and songs sitting on a narrow wooden bridge over the stream winding the paddy fields in my ancestral home.

Tentacle Temptation @RABTBookTours @EvaDeMoan

Naughty Films Inc #1

Fantasy Erotica

Date Published: February 25, 2022

Publisher: Razor’s Edge

WARNING: Tentacle Temptation is part of the monster erotica series Naughty Films Inc. There is little to no plot, not much in the way of character development, but there is lots of super hot sex of the taboo variety with seven kraken males and one human female. If you want a happily-ever-after, with romance and a strong storyline, this is NOT what you’re looking for. Please leave all concepts of reality here before proceeding…

 

I worked my way up the ladder in the Adult Entertainment industry, taking any jobs I could. Now my producer has come to me with an offer I can’t refuse — mostly because he didn’t give me a choice — a series of “monster” films with actors in elaborate costumes. But I’d never say no to the amount cash involved…

Except he lied. Those aren’t costumes!

I’m not only about to be claimed by the Alpha Kraken, but by his pod, too!

 

Excerpt

I didn’t have a fucking clue what I was supposed to be doing, so I turned to face the counter and looked at the glass tubes set up. I lifted one and “accidentally” dropped it.

Oops! I’m so clumsy today,” I said, bending down to pick it up. The camera man zoomed in on my boobs, which nearly spilled from my shirt.

Doctor, your patient is ready,” a voice called out from off-set.

I turned to face the fake door, and my breath stalled when the most beautiful man I’d ever seen entered – propelled by tentacles! Oh, shit! When Carl said they’d spared no expense, he wasn’t kidding. This guy looked like he’d just come straight from the sea.

He approached, not even slowing, until he’d pinned me against the counter. “I’m finished being your experiment.”

I swallowed hard, my heart racing as he pressed his hard body against me. “What are you going to do about it?”

He grinned, exposing a mouthful of sharp, needle-like teeth. I nearly shuddered, but repressed my reaction. Barely.

You’ve poked and prodded me for months. I think it’s my turn.”

A tentacle slithered up my thigh. Oh, crap!

About the Author

Song of the Adoël @kevinkingauthor @RABTBookTours

YA Fantasy

Date Published: 2/22/2022

Publisher: Brimstone Fiction

The Adoël keep their past a secret, speaking only of some great sin for which they pay penance by living as servants to the royal family. The curse that haunts them, that turns their skin pale and their hair white, is a shame too deep to even speak of.

Raendel resents being told he must pay for the guilt of others. Why should he have to suffer? Their actions had nothing to do with him. Or so he thinks.

When creatures out of the darkest legends attack the king in his own castle, and the prince runs off on a suicidal quest for vengeance, the ‘sins of the past’ suddenly become a very present reality. And very personal.

Excerpt

Urgent shouts of “Protect the king!” echoed in Raendel’s head while flashbacks of the vision from Master Othniel’s chamber pricked his conscience. He covered his ears with his hands, but he couldn’t block out Othniel’s voice that spoke inside his own mind. We failed our master. We must never fail him again.

Raendel argued back against his conscience. What can I do? I don’t know how to fight! The king has Master Lenore and Master Deborah to protect him. I would only get in the way.

The shadow creature knocked aside nobles and soldiers alike, advancing to within a few yards of the high table. Lenore and Deborah pulled the king through a door that opened into a passage ending at the king’s chambers. He considered the advancing enemy and then the door where the king had gone. He didn’t know what he could do, but his conscience wouldn’t let him just lie there and do nothing. With one last glance at the attackers, he leaped up and ran after the king.

About the Author

Kevin King grew up in south Louisiana, raised on a steady diet of gumbo and fiction novels. His hobbies include Renaissance Fairs, bookstores, fencing, and daydreaming. He lives outside of Seattle with his wife, his dog Frodo, and their combined book collection.

photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

 

 

AN ADVENTURE LIKE NO OTHER.

One part, exotic, jungle setting, one part romance, two parts gripping,
heart-pounding suspense

Jake Bennett knew a couple of things for sure: he needed a job, he
didn’t want to die in the jungle… but he’d never met
anyone like nurse Brockman.

The two clash when Jake discovers that Katherine Brockman’s mission
has nothing to do with checking the condition of malaria in native
villages.

The possibility of saving tens of thousands of lives unites them as they
venture into the steaming jungle to discover if the “Legend of the
Riverman” is true.

Soon, the dangers of the jungle wrapped in the unforgiving heat, threatens
to end, not only their mission, but their lives.

But nothing can prepare them for what they discover, hidden deep in an
unexplored jungle basin.

 

A new, action-packed, adult adventure

Review

That synopsis completely drew me in. I knew I wanted to read this novel and had high hopes for the story and writing.

The premise is unique, and for me this was one of those stories that started off with a bang and kept the pace up.

There were plenty of surprises along the way and ultimately it led to a great read overall.

 About the Author

An avid reader as a youngster, Daniel began a teaching career at twenty,
peppering his life with trail rides on his horse Kelly, scuba diving in the
murky Great Lakes of Ontario and taking fencing lessons.

He married Lynda, five months after they met in a bar on a Thursday night.
With her, he raised a family, wrote and produced school plays, built their
log home, restored a classic Mustang, a ’69 Mach 1 for enthusiasts, and took
their three boys on many canoe trips in northern Canada.

Twenty years later, unable to find a science fantasy adventure he liked,
with encouragement from Lynda, he wrote The Reedsmith of Zendar. Expedition
Borneo is his sixth novel.

His books are varied, but whether suspense, a thriller, or an adventure
story, all contain characters in trouble that you will care about and root
for. He’s never perfect and neither is she, but the attraction is inevitable
as they learn about each other on an adventure seldom of their
choosing.

Gawain Unbound @ChangelingPress @RABTBookTours

Erotic Fantasy Romance

Date Published: 2/25/22

When Killian returned alive after an enchanted captivity, his younger brother Prince Gawain was more than happy to step aside as heir to the throne of Abercarn. Now, though, Gawain is at loose ends — until Lady Catrin seduces him and secures his agreement to stalk Madrin, the evil magician who enchanted Killian and killed her father.

Posing as troubadours, the two battle adversity together and find that they are connected by more than their hatred of Madrin. Yet despite their growing longing for a life together, neither of them is willing to abandon their dangerous quest. Their confrontation with their powerful and wily enemy will be the ultimate test of their resolve and their love.

Excerpt

She collapsed on top of him, her sweat-slick body sliding against his for a moment before she levered herself away and collapsed to the moss beside him, leaving him breathing hard as he regained his senses.

What did I just do? He might have sprung away from her then, but her hand shot out to grasp his wrist, holding him in place.

He glared down at her. “What just happened?

You had your way with me.”

I believe it was the other way around. Did you bewitch me?”

No.”

Then what in the names of all the gods happened?”

A smile played about her lips. “We fucked each other to a very satisfactory conclusion.”

His harsh laugh filled the glen. “Tell me, how did we go from conversation to fucking in the blink of an eye?”

It was what you wanted.”

He considered her answer. “I might have wanted you, but I never would have acted with such haste.”

I know.” She dragged in a breath and let it out. “My father, Simon Waller, was a mage.” Before Gawain could interrupt, she went on. “The skill passes from one generation to the next, sometimes strongly and sometimes with lesser effect. I have only a fraction of his powers, but I have one talent that serves me well. I can urge a man or a woman to do something that they are already contemplating. You wanted to fuck me, and I helped you go from thought to action.”

He couldn’t deny the desire he had felt and the unseemly way he had acted upon that desire. Realizing that they were having this conversation in the nude in a forest glen, he began gathering up the clothing he had discarded. When she saw what he was doing, she also reached for her drawers.

They both dressed quickly. When she finished adjusting her dress, she met his gaze. “And you would compel me to accompany you on your journey to find Madrin and punish him?”

She shook her head. “I would never compel a man to undertake a task that could lead to his death. A decision like that must be made without coercion.”
