Christaan De Rein's return to Liverpool does not go well, starting with the
fact that his trusted apprentice, Higgins, dies on the way. Then again, Higgins
dies a lot. Of course, Rein doesn't expect to be welcomed with open arms after
being banished for nine years, but a cryptic summons from The Musician herself
cannot go unanswered.<br />
<br />
But when Rein arrives all is in chaos. People with fairy blood are turning up
dead. The Forum Magicae is undone and the Curators sieged.<br />
<br />
And in another world altogether, where Earth is just a legend, a girl named
Niena and a cursed lyre hold the key to saving both realms. Or destroying them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></p>

novels. And curse his wife's cold feet.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<br />
A failed effort to weaponize animals awakens their intellects. The military
responds by creating death camps to exterminate infected animals. Moon Shadow,
an Arctic white wolf, unites with White Claw, a polar bear king, to form Animus
Nor, the first animal republic, to negotiate peace. The uneasy peace is broken
with the rise of Azaz, lord of the grizzly bears. Azaz attacks human
settlements, considering humans an invasive species that wreaks havoc on bears
and the environment. A world war breaks out as animals face humans and each
other to see who will become the true apex species.<br />

Her paws—icicles lined with nails—winced in their impending numbness. Still, Moon Shadow ran forward. In the distant echo of dreams, she remembered what it was like to live in the world before the end of worlds. An illegally smuggled white Arctic wolf, Moon Shadow knew the love of her former masters before the new age. The tiniest of the humans reminded her of her own pups, tiny balls of white fur that she hoped to coddle until it was their time to hunt. Yet, the same masters took her pups from her, putting them up for the highest bidder to steal. Even after seeing more of the great North American continent than she had ever dreamed of in her life of relative leisure, Moon Shadow had seen no sign of her pups. She wondered if they were now grown with pups of their own. In her heart, she knew it was unlikely that they survived The Rapsys, or Opening of Eyes, as the street dogs of her former town rather poetically referred to this massive change that shook the very marrow of their bones. </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">While Moon Shadow considered herself a peaceful wolf by nature, a woowen-ken, or one who walks with nature, she had killed. Before her blue eyes locked on their prey, a rather pushy raccoon that threatened her masters with snarls and claws had its neck torn asunder in her mighty jaws. The occasional wild cat that crossed her path had fared no better. But when Moon Shadow killed, it was never in fear. It was always with purpose. The Harkening, or Great Slaughter, had come upon her with more robustness than the pups that ever so briefly sought her milk before they disappeared. Trusted masters everywhere turned their pets into authorities, and from even the most distant howls, whinnies, neighs, and hisses, Moon Shadow knew what the rulku, or killers, were capable of. Her eyes met her master’s and even as their little ones cried, Moon Shadow knew. Her fur stood on end, and in a brief moment, she saw the eyes of the rulku in her masters. She snarled, biting hands that no longer fed her. One of her former masters, the mother, no less—the one who, unlike her, had not lost her pups—screamed at the authorities. They turned their sights on her. Moon Shadow ran through the killing fields, making eye contact with the vacuous eyes of a falling prize filly as it crashed to the earth. She saw the ravens and vultures circling before flying off. And she heard the thunder of the crackling sticks the rulku held before she felt one of her legs give out in wordless pain beneath her. Had the filly not fallen when it did, had the whimpering, betrayed house dogs not collapsed behind her, the rulku would have killed Moon Shadow then and there.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">But even the least awakened of the street dogs knew of the term Ozu, the great binding spirit that held all of Nature at balance, deciding which dog lived and which dog died. Ozu was with Moon Shadow that coldest of nights, and so she ran, gaining what food and wisdom she could from the edge of old towns that were death to any dog that dared enter unawares. The street dogs spoke, in vibrant, guttural growls, of an army forming in The Great White North. They spoke of how The Rapsys came with the winds of the tundra, of how the wolves, deer, eagles, and hawks, were gathering, along with the sea creatures, the otters and whales, of how all the animals were gathering, in a secret meeting with a strange creature, Nurvlyn, a rulku with eyes like theirs and the wisdom of the flowers. Moon Shadow did not know if this was but legend, but she was the only street dog with enough youth and stamina for such a quest, the only one who was not starving, taking what meat from the rulku bones she could feast on. Her barks had a rhythm to them, the other street dogs said, that showed wisdom born of pain and experience. And so, Moon Shadow kept running, the first American dog to reach the wilds of the great northern tundra, asking always, how much farther to Nurvlyn, how much farther must she go in the Arctic snow.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">The <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">War of the Animals </i>books were inspired
by the 2020 pandemic lockdown. I remember driving by animals that freely roamed
the streets after we were in lockdown (I was getting groceries—not ignoring
state mandates—I promise!). I felt for the first time how much the animals were
in lockdown whenever we weren’t. That inspired the idea of a variety of animals
having voices and speaking up for the earth. I started writing the books
shortly thereafter.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">I write
because I love doing so. I’ve been published by a small press and a few
literary journals. Before self-publishing the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">War of the Animals </i>books, I wrote <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Naked Earth, </i>named 2008 Fiction Book of the Year by <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Online Journal of News and Current
Affairs. </i>I also received a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Writer’s
Notes Magazine </i>general fiction book award for my stories in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Sing of the High Country. </i><o:p></o:p></span></p>

keys to save humanity.</span></b></span><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130906592;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />
<br />
In 2035, fifteen-year-old Rae, an orphan, has chosen silence. Or perhaps
silence has chosen her. After the sudden death of her father, she has lost her
ability to speak.<br />
<br />
But that is the least of her problems. An elusive genius known as the Keeper
has created an advanced AI program—Spirit Era—that predicts the world will end
in two years without massive human intervention. The solution? Seven teenage
volunteers who must work together to prevent this doomsday. Despite her
reluctance to apply, Rae is selected, along with six other teens from the four
corners of the world, to save humanity.<br />
<br />
Spirit Era has designed seven Mantras, virtual reality worlds revealing the
seven most likely apocalyptic disasters. Within these Mantras are concealed
seven keys that will unlock humanity’s potential to stand in the way of
planetary destruction and fight for the future of the world. The seven chosen
ones—quiet Rae, hotheaded Chayton, sensual Helen, quick-witted Ali, gentle
Keiji, intense Alpha, and reserved Stepan—must journey into these worlds to
find the keys.<br />
<br />
<i>Root</i>, the first book in this gripping saga, follows the seven into a
hyperrealistic simulation of the not-too-distant future, where the rich have
seized control of the world’s resources following a global famine triggered by
a devastating loss of biodiversity. In order to escape this possible future,
the seven must join together and use all their powers to find the key—and
survive the simulation.<br />
<br />
Two years left until the end of the world. The countdown begins . . </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">.</span></p>

Benattar</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"> was
born in Casablanca, Morocco, in 1971. In her childhood and teenage years, she
spent most of her time reading, listening to music, dancing, and acting. After
a few years in Paris she moved to Cannes, where she earned an undergraduate
degree in psychology and a degree in pediatric nursing. Early on, she
questioned the connection between body, spirit, and soul. This drove her to
take several courses on spirituality and alternative medicine. Her first
novel <i>Un corbeau au 36</i> won the crime Femme Actuelle award and
was the ‘hearthrob’ of the chairwoman, Eliette Abecassis (Inaugural Authors
2013, Pocket 2014). Today she writes full time and lives in Israel. Fascinated
by fictional worlds, she loves to bridge the gap between the real and the
imaginary to let readers explore unbeaten paths and reconsider our way of life.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><em>Blurb:</em> Burning Secret is a dramatic and compelling take of ambition, lies, and betrayal inspired by actual events.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Born in the slums of Bristol in 1844, Enoch Price seems destined for a life of poverty and hardship - but he’s determined not to accept his lot.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Enoch becomes a bare-knuckle fighter in London’s criminal underworld. But in a city where there’s no place for honest dealing, he is cheated by a cruel loan shark, leaving him penniless and facing imprisonment.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Undaunted, he escapes to a new life in America and embarks on a series of audacious exploits. But even as he helps shape history, Enoch is not content. Tormented by his past and the life he left behind, he soon becomes entangled in a web of lies and secrets.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Will he ever break free and find the happiness he craves?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><em>History of my copy:</em> I was gifted a copy of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review on behalf of Lola’s Book Tours.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><em>Plot:</em> For a while, it took me a long time to get into the plot of this book. It felt like there were never ending chapters where not a lot was going on, simply filling time. Then I remembered that the book was based on a true story, which made this make a little more sense. I found it quite difficult to understand Enoch's life in London, and felt that there could have explaining that. However, once in America, and definitely from the second half of the book onwards, the plot picks up and gets much more engaging.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><i>Setting:</i><strong style="font-weight: bold;"> Burning Secret</strong> focuses much more on the plot and characters than setting. The setting descriptions are adequate, but aren't the focus of the book. The only part of the setting that really stands out to me is the fire.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><em>Characters:</em> Enoch himself is a very intriguing character. Throughout the book you really start to see all these sides to him. However, apart from him, I find that not many of the other characters really stand out.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><em>To read or not to read:</em> <strong>Read.</strong> Although far from one of my favourite books, <strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Burning Secret</strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong> certainly makes for an interesting read, especially in the second half of the book. You really start to feel like you get an understanding of this man’s life.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Find my blog tour spot <a href="https://katticusbookreviews.blogspot.com/2022/09/blog-tour-burning-secret-by-r-j-lloyd.html" target="_blank">here</a> featuring an interview with R J Lloyd and an excerpt</span></p>Kat Patonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06059915783820523135noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2474009044104835957.post-23841634457813919552023-04-05T08:00:00.003+01:002023-04-05T08:00:00.222+01:00Blog Tour: Violet Yorke, Gilded Girl: Ghosts in the Closet by P.

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Excerpt</b></p><p class="MsoNormal">Excerpt from Violet Yorke, Gilded Girl: Ghosts In The Closet by PJ McIlvaine</p><p class="MsoNormal">“By fair means or foul, Violet Yorke had to get to Grandmother Olivia’s. Under a threatening</p><p class="MsoNormal">gray sky, she stood at the Manhattan street corner, frantically waving at motorcars and horse-</p><p class="MsoNormal">drawn buggies, but they all passed by her without a second glance. Wasn’t it against the law</p><p class="MsoNormal">not to stop? If it wasn’t, it should be. Compared to this indignity, slipping out of the hospital</p><p class="MsoNormal">had been a breeze. She’d simply waited until the morning shift changed and blended in with the</p><p class="MsoNormal">departing visitors. Not that anyone would care she’d gone.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Dispirited, she trudged down the cobblestone street, taking care not to step into piles of fresh</p><p class="MsoNormal">horse dung. The drivers probably thought she was a street urchin in her ill-fitting threadbare</p><p class="MsoNormal">coat that barely skimmed her knees, and even worse, no hat. No self-respecting lady went out</p><p class="MsoNormal">in public without her hat. Fuddy-duddy Great-Aunt Florence wouldn’t have approved. And she</p><p class="MsoNormal">certainly wouldn’t have approved of Violet roaming about unaccompanied. But this wasn’t the</p><p class="MsoNormal">time for social niceties. Violet wasn’t in London under the watchful eye of a battalion of bat-</p><p class="MsoNormal">faced maids.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Violet loved the freedom but not the weather. For early April it felt more like February, a cold</p><p class="MsoNormal">that chilled to the bone. It had been equally blustery when she’d boarded Titanic at</p><p class="MsoNormal">Southampton, the docks swarming with well-wishers. What had Florence said? That everyone</p><p class="MsoNormal">would remember Titanic for years to come, and that Violet was embarking on the adventure of</p><p class="MsoNormal">a lifetime. Violet thought it was a bit premature to make such a declaration, as it was only 1912,</p><p class="MsoNormal">and who knew what else might happen? As it turned out, Florence had been right – but not in</p><p class="MsoNormal">the way she’d intended.”</p>

made.<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130555785;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">But for Jeremy Goodson and Masaru
Hagen that is far from the truth. Confronted by something that neither of them
can explain, two complete strangers from opposite sides of the world embark on
an unforgettable journey that will forge them into living legends.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130555785;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">It has been almost 4,000 years since
magic disappeared from the Earth. Hidden from humanity by the Veil, those who
possess magic live in ancient settlements across the globe. Over the centuries,
these beings have pierced the Veil, leaving behind glimpses and shadows of the
fantastic and arcane. Fueled by distant memories and humanity’s desire for
wonder, familiar stories of myths and legends have been passed down for
thousands of years in nearly every culture and nation. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130555785;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Jeremy Goodson, an average,
overweight teacher in New York City finds his entire world turned upside down
when a stranger tempts him to leave everything behind and start a journey that
will test Jeremy’s mysterious gift and bring magic and hope back to humanity.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130555785;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Masaru Hagen, the adopted son of
American tech entrepreneurs living in Tokyo, has been guided by an unseen voice
all his life. On the eve of his twentieth birthday, the voice leads him across
thousands of miles, on a mysterious and perilous mission he alone can
undertake.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130555785;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">But there are principalities of this
world that will do whatever they can to stop Jeremy and Masaru and keep magic
out of the hands of humanity forever.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130555785;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">One of these men will bring hope to
the world; the other will bring death. The world they once knew will be changed
forever, not only for themselves, but for everyone on Earth...and maybe not for
the best.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

Among the hustle and bustle, one</p><p class="MsoNormal">unmoving figure kept watch over a seemingly ordinary human.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Mercurio stood on the sidewalk, busy humans rushing around him. Most of them towered</p><p class="MsoNormal">above him, but he was used to that. In some cases, if he wanted to blend in without using his</p><p class="MsoNormal">cloak, he could hide among human children. But not today. Today he needed to be unnoticed.</p><p class="MsoNormal">The elf stood silent and observing, an unseen watcher hidden in a shroud of magic; the familiar</p><p class="MsoNormal">energy of his Veil Cloak surged over his body. The surrounding magic united with his aura and</p><p class="MsoNormal">weaved the light around him, making the armor-clad elf invisible to the humans that passed</p><p class="MsoNormal">him by. They were completely unaware of his presence, yet they avoided contact with him as if</p><p class="MsoNormal">they knew he was there. The cloak’s secondary enchantment acted as a deflector, repelling the</p><p class="MsoNormal">humans at a subconscious level, causing them to move around him like a river flowing around a</p><p class="MsoNormal">large rock.</p><p class="MsoNormal">With humans darting all around him, the elf’s eyes focused on his target; a young male sitting</p><p class="MsoNormal">on a bench, reading a book. He’d observed this human for weeks and was convinced that this</p><p class="MsoNormal">one was indeed worthy of the calling.</p><p class="MsoNormal">This ordinary, plump twenty-eight-year-old man appeared average by most human standards.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Perhaps even below average. Jeremy Goodson wore eyeglasses. His round cheeks and belly</p><p class="MsoNormal">indicated he ate more than he should. The mustard stain on his blue collared shirt confirmed</p><p class="MsoNormal">that conclusion. His brown khaki pants were wrinkled. Was this because he didn’t make and</p><p class="MsoNormal">care for his own clothing? He did live alone.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Curious.</p>

keys to save humanity.</span></b></span><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk130906592;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />
<br />
In 2035, fifteen-year-old Rae, an orphan, has chosen silence. Or perhaps
silence has chosen her. After the sudden death of her father, she has lost her
ability to speak.<br />
<br />
But that is the least of her problems. An elusive genius known as the Keeper
has created an advanced AI program—Spirit Era—that predicts the world will end
in two years without massive human intervention. The solution? Seven teenage
volunteers who must work together to prevent this doomsday. Despite her
reluctance to apply, Rae is selected, along with six other teens from the four
corners of the world, to save humanity.<br />
<br />
Spirit Era has designed seven Mantras, virtual reality worlds revealing the
seven most likely apocalyptic disasters. Within these Mantras are concealed
seven keys that will unlock humanity’s potential to stand in the way of
planetary destruction and fight for the future of the world. The seven chosen
ones—quiet Rae, hotheaded Chayton, sensual Helen, quick-witted Ali, gentle
Keiji, intense Alpha, and reserved Stepan—must journey into these worlds to
find the keys.<br />
<br />
<i>Root</i>, the first book in this gripping saga, follows the seven into a
hyperrealistic simulation of the not-too-distant future, where the rich have
seized control of the world’s resources following a global famine triggered by
a devastating loss of biodiversity. In order to escape this possible future,
the seven must join together and use all their powers to find the key—and
survive the simulation.<br />
<br />
Two years left until the end of the world. The countdown begins . . </span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">.</span></p>

Benattar</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"> was
born in Casablanca, Morocco, in 1971. In her childhood and teenage years, she
spent most of her time reading, listening to music, dancing, and acting. After
a few years in Paris she moved to Cannes, where she earned an undergraduate
degree in psychology and a degree in pediatric nursing. Early on, she
questioned the connection between body, spirit, and soul. This drove her to
take several courses on spirituality and alternative medicine. Her first
novel <i>Un corbeau au 36</i> won the crime Femme Actuelle award and
was the ‘hearthrob’ of the chairwoman, Eliette Abecassis (Inaugural Authors
2013, Pocket 2014). Today she writes full time and lives in Israel. Fascinated
by fictional worlds, she loves to bridge the gap between the real and the
imaginary to let readers explore unbeaten paths and reconsider our way of life.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk127534155;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Celeste spends the start of her

her once they feel certain Celeste has honed her supernatural powers. But
little do they know, Celeste isn’t wholly committed to granting eternal life to
those deserving. Upon a return home to her immortal lover, and the Kansas City
Detective Squad, she battles mortal foes, not so unlike the demonic undead. And
when a fellow detective falls victim to a murderous gang member, Celeste faces
a gut-wrenching decision and the possible wrath of the Elders.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><u>Excerpt</u></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">I found Liza McCuskey strung out in an alley between a strip joint and a pawnshop. The report listed her as twenty-two, but she looked every bit of forty-five. The color of her hair reminded me of chili peppers and hung limp against bruised and bony shoulders. Her face wasn’t a ray of sunshine; it forecasted Noah’s flood. I flashed my shield, which convinced the john pressing her against a building to take off. She was hesitant to talk until I showed her a crisp twenty-dollar bill. She reached for it, feigning goodwill the way addicts always do.</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Not so fast, Liza. You tell me what you know about Gunner’s murder and there’s more where that came from.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">Liza shook her head, so hard her entire body shook with it, then she wrenched her head sideways and puked. She hitched her short skirt back down over skeletal hips, losing her balance twice. Her fishnet stockings were ripped here, torn there, and could have snagged a small shark. If she had worn panties when she came into the alley, she didn’t have them on now.</p><p class="MsoNormal">I pointed to her hand. “What happened there?” It looked like a defensive wound to me. “Did that happen recently?” She hid her hand behind her back. “Maybe around the time somebody stabbed Gunner to death?”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Like I told those other cops, I got nothing to say.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“I think you were there, Liza. Witnesses saw you with Gunner an hour before a passerby discovered his body. And that knife wound on your hand isn’t just a coincidence.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“I didn’t kill him.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“But if you know who did and you don’t come forward, you’re considered an accessory after the fact. Which means prison time, Liza. That’s one hell of a way to get clean.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">She began to tremble, so violently her knees buckled, and I could hear her teeth chatter. “I talk, I’m dead. That motherfucker is crazy.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Then tell me off the record.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">Her dull eyes brightened. “I still get the money?”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“That depends on the information. I want a name.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“I don’t know his name.”</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="line-height: 107%;"></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">“I don’t believe you, Liza.” I’d made two attempts to make sense of the jumbled thoughts inside her head. Reading her mind was a lot like wading through the waste in Chernobyl.</p><div><br /></div>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Once the allure of impersonating celebrities began to wane,
D. B. Woodling left the stage and turned her attention to writing. Credited
with two historical fiction novels—Shannon’s Revenge: Broken Promises,
recognized for its literary merit, and <i>Retribution: A Lover’s Tale</i>—she
then switched genres and wrote The Detective Mike Malone series.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Needing a home for an ominous opening line, <i>The
Immortal Twin</i>, a paranormal novel, soon began to take shape. Three-winged
dragons, undead historical mentors, and police investigations abound in <i>The
Immortal Detective</i>, the second installment in Celeste’s journey, with
plenty of chilling twists and turns.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">When she’s not creating harrowing fight scenes, steamy
encounters, or complex police investigations, Woodling calms her soul with
scenic walks, often in the company of a clowder of cats or a know-it-all golden
retriever.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

Delgado should come with a warning label: Caution explosive material. A
volatile tennis prodigy once tipped to win majors, this wildly unpredictable
fan favorite never quite lived up to all the hype. So when he leaves the tennis
tour without explanation during the best year of his career, no one expects him
to grind out a comeback on the second-tier Challenger circuit eight months
later.</span></span></p>

met my share of hot messes. Call it collateral damage of being Flynn
Dryden—motivational guru to struggling millennials. But I have never met anyone
like Chavez. Young and yummy with complications written all over him, he pushes
all my right buttons. But when he asks me to join him on tour as his mental
fitness coach, I say yes for all the wrong reasons.</span></span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p>

Being slippery with the truth is part career strategy and part necessary coping mechanism. The pressure to be beautiful and successful is relentless in the City of Angels, and though my fans consider me both, they don't know the real me. I've been lying for years. Some days I’m better at it than others, and today is a definite other. My anxiety has shot up like mercury in July and I’m fresh out of magic pills, about to lose it on the world's most annoying gatekeeper.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Can you check again?” I ask Madison, another blonde actress wannabe slumming it as a Beverly Hills receptionist. “I made an appointment a month ago before I went out of town.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She snaps her gum and scrolls through the calendar on her computer monitor, making a big production of it. “I don't see your name anywhere. And Dr. Bradford is booked solid for the next two weeks. You'll have to reschedule."</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Is there any chance he can write me a new prescription without an appointment?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I dig deep for my most sincere Flynn Dryden smile—the one my fans pay a hundred dollars a pop to see in person—and fight the urge to yell, Don’t you know who I am! I am America's favorite motivational guru. My entire career is helping people. After playing nice for the last thirty days and smiling through the lovers, haters, and hecklers on my book tour, right now, I just need someone to help me.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Madison’s baby blues show the first sign of crumbling when the clinic door beeps open behind me. She straightens in the chair, unconsciously primping her hair. I glance over my shoulder expecting to see a famous producer or agent, not some young guy helping himself to water at the cooler. Only a rearview because he’s facing away from us, but damn. He’s fit as fuck with skin the same color as the almond butter I smeared on my toast this morning. I can only assume he’s a delivery guy. Who else waltzes into a psychiatry office for a drink wearing only a tank top and shorts?</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Anyway.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I turn back to Madison and go for the beg as a last resort. “Can you swing me ten pills for now? A courtesy top off. It’s an emergency.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You know we can’t do that. Not for Zoloft,” she says, loud enough that anyone in the LA Basin can hear. “And according to this,” she peers at that godforsaken calendar again, “you’re back sooner than you should be.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">With an unsteady breath, I ball both fists to avoid throttling her. Judgment on top of it all.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“She doesn’t care. Get used to it. No one in the system cares.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I whip around, ready to lay into this guy who's mistaken my business for his. But words dissolve like dust on my tongue.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">For the love of god.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He's now lounging on the lobby couch with one arm draped along the top and his sneakers crossed on the coffee table like he owns the place. His mouth curls into a rebellious smirk that says, I dare you to challenge me, and I plan to, right after I scoop my jaw up off the floor. It’s kind of pathetic to stare so openly, but if there were a Mr. USA beauty competition, this smoldering Latino honey would bring the judges to their knees.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Cat got your tongue?” he asks.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I clear my throat and wish I’d put some thought into my appearance before rushing down here. Some blush to brighten my pale skin or something more inspired than my curls pulled into a simple, messy bun. At least I’m in heels and a dress and not a hoodie.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I was going to say—”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“That I’m right?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">His eyes bore into mine. Were they angry or just unhappy? Either way, I sense trouble and not the good kind. Why else would he be here?</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“No. You’re wrong. People do care.” People other than Madison, I almost add.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He studies me, gauging my sincerity. “An eternal optimist. How encouraging, señorita.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He rolls the R in señorita and I feel it. Feel his tongue making a single letter an illicit event. I feel it in places where I probably shouldn’t. While that sensation buzzes through me, he pushes off the couch and swaggers over, a hip-swaying advertisement for testosterone and virility. I’m 5'10'' without heels, the neighborhood giraffe, but I can tell he’s grooving on the power of being taller, staring down at me with peepers a shade of turquoise so unreal they might as well have a Crayola label slapped on them.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Chavez,” he says. “Since we’re swapping names.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I didn’t know we were.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He fingers a curl that’s gone AWOL from my bun with a slow smile. “C’mon, beautiful lady. What’s your name?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“My name is Flynn,” I say, swatting his hand away. “And ask before you touch me, please.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">His eyes drift over me without landing on any one place, but they still manage to get their point across. “You always wear dresses that short?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You’re one to talk, Sporty Spice,” I flip back. “Not leaving much to the imagination, are you?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He shoots me a saucy wink. “I got you imagining. That’s the first step.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Jesus. How is it even possible to have a mouth made for sin on such a baby face? My mind races back and forth because he looks so familiar. And his name rings a bell. Something about him in general rings all my bells. Curiosity gets the better of me.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“What’s step two?” I ask.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The office phone jingles to life, and Chavez steers us away from Madison’s chatter to corner me by the fish tank. He raises one arm, boxing me in further by laying his palm against the wall beside my head. Heat radiates off him like a five-alarm fire.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You tell me,” he says, his breath sweet and dangerously close to mingling with mine.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">A flush creeps onto my cheeks. He is young and yummy and flaunting way too much skin for eleven in the morning. And if it’s possible to smell like male dominance, well, he’s got that covered too. Sweet fuckery, where was he last night? My dating app run and gun with Dwayne from Denver imploded into the usual disaster. Nothing sexier than a guy lapping my lady business like a panicky toddler with a melting ice cream cone while I count spiderwebs on his ceiling. I had to fake an orgasm to end that misery, and he passed out believing it was all due to his Herculean efforts.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Ms. Dryden.” Madison’s voice jolts us out of our intimate cocoon. Chavez cuts her an irritated look over his shoulder and steps back, taking his body heat with him. “You’re in luck,” she says. “I just had a cancellation for tomorrow at four.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Oh, uhm … sure,” I reply. “Tomorrow works.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Flynn Dryden.” Chavez says my name as if he’s testing out a new language. “My last name also starts with D. If we got married, you’d still be Flynn D. How do you feel about that?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">In my attempt to suppress a laugh, I end up spraying it instead. “How often does that line work for you?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You’d be surprised.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Well, I’m sorry to be the one to crush your odds.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">My pushback only seems to amuse him. “Muy tierna y fogosa,” he says, working the Spanish accent with a smile. “I like.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Whatever is going on here, I like it too. It’s a good feeling, this rarity of being admired by a younger man not clutching one of my books. Our little flirtathon is the first bit of fun I’ve had in a long while. But like everything good in my life, it’s cut short. One of the office doors in the hallway opens and a weeping, expensively tended woman clutching a hairless dog shuffles out.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Excuse me,” she sniffs, sliding past us to make a dramatic exit in her sequined tracksuit.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Following in her footsteps is a burly man of the Scottish Highlands variety, with horn-rimmed glasses and a braided beard held together with a festive red hair tie. He looks surprised to see us.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Hey, Smythe.” Chavez greets the man with a two-fingered salute off his forehead.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Smythe glances at his watch. “You’re early.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“If you’re late, that’s not showing respect.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Funny that I’ve been coming here for a year and have never set eyes on the Ethan Smythe of Bradford and Smythe Psychiatry until now. Compared to the dashing and impeccably dressed Dr. Bradford, Ethan and his flannel shirt looks better suited to carve statues with a chainsaw than probe my mind.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Your punctuality is appreciated,” Ethan says. “I need to use the little boy’s room. Make yourself comfortable in my office.” He turns to me with an apologetic smile. “I’m sorry, but no girlfriends allowed.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I arch a brow. As if I don’t have anything better to do with my time than hold my boyfriend’s hand during his therapy session.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I’m not his girlfriend,” I point out.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Chavez glances over and disarms me with another wink. “Not yet.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Ethan’s head is on a swivel, unsure what to make of us. “I’ll be back in five. I hope that’s enough time to sort yourselves out.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">After he leaves, Chavez takes a step closer, erasing the distance between us. My body hums with a strange energy.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Looks like our time is up, Miss Flynn. I left my phone in the car but how about I do my thing and you leave your number with her?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He tilts his head at Madison who, to give credit where credit is due, can certainly act like she’s busy. Chavez must think this is a slam dunk, judging from his confident smile.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Not so fast.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“How old are you?” I ask.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Old enough to know what I’m doing.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“And you’re assuming I’m single?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Fortune favors the bold, right? I’m all about taking my chances.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">He curls his fists to reveal the words FEAR and LESS inked across his right and left knuckles. Hand tattoos are not on the top-five list of what I’m looking for in a man, but gah, his mouth. It brings to mind dirty kisses in the rain that go on forever. With lots of tongue.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Perhaps I search his dreamy face too long for his liking.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Maybe he has no clue I’m processing multiple layers of rationalization.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Or maybe it’s a game for him after all.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“But hey,” he says, dropping his hands as if I’ve personally rejected them, “if you’re one of those chicks who likes to play hard to get, I’m out. I don’t have time to chase women. Leaving it up to you.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">No time to chase but lots of time to put on one hell of a show with his insouciant strut down the hall. Molded onto a butt built for serious thrusting, his canary-yellow shorts are the equivalent of an amber traffic light.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Slow down and proceed with caution.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Madison watches him go with a snorting laugh. “Unbelievable, huh? Some guys think they’re God’s gift to women. He probably figured since you’re old he could—”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Old?” I interrupt.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“What I meant is, he’s only twenty-five.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“How do you know?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“He’s plastered all over the internet,” she says, emphasizing internet in the event I need a refresher on this marvelous invention. “Supposedly he got kicked off the tour for anger management issues.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Madison is now zero for two in keeping client information confidential, although the bubble of familiarity I feel with Chavez now makes sense.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“What’s his band called?” I ask.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Not that kind of tour. The tennis tour. He’s a tennis player. Chavez Delgado.” She shrugs. “I guess he’s a big deal. Or he was.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Hearing his name and tennis sends a spasm through my right elbow. A ghostly reminder that at one point in my life, I knew who all the top tennis players were. I don’t track the detailed comings and goings of the sport anymore, but you have to be living under a rock not to have heard of Chavez. I couldn’t make the connection because the context was out of place. Who expects an infamous tennis star to slum it in a shrink’s office with Enya warbling over the speakers?</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Just so you know,” Madison adds, “he asked for my number last week, but I didn’t give it to him. It’s your call if you want to leave yours.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">I’m more than a little interested to see where a future conversation with Chavez might lead, but there is no way I’m picking up Madison’s sloppy seconds. Plus, I’ve made a vow never to date tennis players. It’s too personal—a reminder of the scars, inside and out. And I’ve got enough on my plate. Like the reason I came here in the first place, unshowered, without makeup, in a dress crumpled from lying on the floor overnight.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">All that and Chavez still called me beautiful.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">A dark feathering sensation begins to choke my throat. I shut my eyes and tell myself, Breathe, Flynn. Don’t forget to breathe.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You okay?” Madison asks, genuinely concerned.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">No, I’m not, although I should be. I sell books by the truckload and host events streamed live into ten different countries. I am my own freaking industry. But like I said, every woman tells lies in Los Angeles. So I tell Madison I’m fine, and no, I won’t be leaving my number because I’m already seeing someone. And I get the hell out of there before another lie leaves my lips.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="line-height: 107%;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk128741940;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">On the way to meet his future wife,
the Duke of Lawford’s coach loses a wheel. Repair is impossible because he’s
landed in Marrywell on the first day of their annual May Day Matchmaking
Festival and <i>everyone </i>is on holiday. Furthermore, there are no
rooms to let, so Law must accept the hospitality of a country squire or, more
accurately, from his beautiful, clever daughter who obviously runs the
household.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk128741940;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">After a disastrous foray at the
matchmaking festival four years ago, Sadie Campion has mostly hidden away at
home. But at twenty-four, this may be her last chance to marry and have a home
and family of her own. When her unexpected houseguest offers to help her
attract a husband, she can hardly refuse and, on the duke’s arm, becomes the
belle of the festival.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk128741940;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">As they grow closer and attraction
simmers between them, Law wonders if <i>she</i> is the match he was
destined to make…<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p> </o:p></span>Chapter One</b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">May 1816</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Marrywell, England</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"> </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie Campion marched across the damp ground after dropping a loaf of Mrs. Rowell’s fresh bread at Sadie’s eldest brother’s cottage. He hadn’t been at home—he was out in the sheep pasture with their father—and his wife had been chasing their three-year-old son around the parlor while clutching the one-year-old boy on her hip. That had prompted Sadie to take her youngest nephew and amuse him for a good half hour so his mother could have a respite. But now Sadie was behind in her regimen for the day.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Quickening her pace, she glanced up at the gray sky. “Don’t you rain again. Or at least do me the courtesy of waiting until after I clean the front door. I’d rather not have to add changing clothes to my list of things to do.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie strode to the front of the house where she’d placed the broom and ladder that she planned to use outside the door. When she reached the porch, she put her basket down and set the ladder in place. She plucked up the broom and climbed the ladder, frowning at the cobwebs that had been there for too long now. But what was she to do? There simply wasn’t enough time in the day for her to complete everything that needed to be done.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Though her father would balk and say he didn’t want to spend the money, Sadie needed to talk to him about hiring at least one more person to help. It didn’t have to be a housekeeper, though that would be nice, just someone who could take on a variety of tasks that never seemed to be completed because there weren’t enough people at Fieldstone to do everything.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Working quickly—both because she was behind, and she was now slightly irritated by her father’s obliviousness to how hard she worked—she didn’t look to see if there was anything living in the webs. So when the spider landed on her forehead, she yelped. She also let go of the ladder and lost her balance, falling backward.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Panic flashed through her. She didn’t have time to be hurt!</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Instead of hitting the ground, she landed on…someone. The large figure didn’t quite catch her, but his strong arms came around her. “Careful,” a masculine voice murmured near her ear.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">His deep tone and solid form against her back soothed her. She inhaled his sandalwood scent and felt a stirring of awareness as well as curiosity. This was obviously not one of her brothers or her father. Nor was it their groom or the land manager. Who, then, was it?</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie turned to see an astonishingly handsome gentleman she’d never clapped eyes on before. Tall and white with deep-set eyes the color of walnuts and lips that were surely too full for a man, he regarded her with concern. His features were strong and patrician, with a prominent brow and a square jaw, and he looked to be about thirty years of age. He wore a stylish hat, but she could just make out blond hair beneath it.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Why on earth are you climbing a ladder without assistance?” he asked, sounding a trifle annoyed as his brows pitched down over his eyes. “What if I hadn’t been here to catch you?” His presumptuous questions dispelled the enchantment that had come over her.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie took a step back, clutching the broom. The gentleman wasn’t alone. There were two other men standing just beyond him. One, who was a few years older than the rude Adonis, cradled his left arm and wore a pained expression. He possessed a snub nose and thick, dark brows. The other man was perhaps twenty years older than the man who’d caught Sadie. He had a long nose and a sharp chin. His cravat was perhaps the most intricately tied neckcloth Sadie had ever seen.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Who are you, and why are you here?” Sadie asked pertly, even as her body still tingled from where her body had touched his.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“He is the Duke of Lawford, and you should mind your tone,” the older man answered, his dark gray brows pitched into an angry V.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The blond man shot a look toward the older man before addressing Sadie. “Our coach has lost a wheel. My coachman has injured his arm, and my valet knocked his head.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie gasped. “You lost a wheel? Goodness, you are all lucky you weren’t more seriously injured.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I’m fine,” the older man insisted as he continued to glower at Sadie. She looked back toward the “duke.” Was he really a duke? Perhaps they weren’t more badly hurt because the accident had never happened. Indeed, this entire scenario seemed highly unlikely, and it would be just like her brothers to play a joke like this. Sadie narrowed one eye at Adonis. “How do I know you’re a duke? And did you really suffer a mishap?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Of all the impertinence!” the older man snapped, his eyes flashing in outrage.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The supposed duke exhaled. “If it’s not too much trouble, Mrs…?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Miss Campion.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke’s eyes widened slightly as if he found her unmarried state surprising. Perhaps he did. As a woman of twenty-four, she was practically on the shelf.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Miss Campion, I am indeed the Duke of Lawford. If it’s not too much trouble, might we borrow a vehicle to continue to the nearest town so we may find a physician and someone to repair my coach?” the duke asked.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Oh dear, it sounded as if he had no idea where they were. Or when.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Ah, why don’t you come inside?” Sadie said, summoning a smile as she was about to ruin their day even more.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I don’t wish to trouble your employer,” the duke said smoothly.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Her…what? He likely thought she was a maid. Or the housekeeper—perhaps that was why “Miss” instead of “Mrs.” had surprised him. As housekeeper, she would be Mrs. Campion, whether she was married or not. Sadie glanced down at the mud on her hem from walking across the estate earlier and didn’t have to touch her head to know that a great many curls had escaped her chignon. It was more than believable that she was an employee at Fieldstone instead of the daughter of the owner.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She didn’t take the time to disabuse the duke of his assumption. “You really need to come inside…to sort things out. Please allow me to offer you some refreshment, and I’ll send for the doctor. Marrywell isn’t two miles down the road.” She gestured west with the broom.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Marrywell? I am not familiar with it,” the duke said with authority. “Perhaps someone can drive us into town to see the doctor? Then I can hire a coach to continue driving us to our destination.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The man was likely used to getting his way. She gave him a bland smile. “If you’ll just come inside, I’ll be happy to explain why none of that will be possible, unfortunately.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke blinked, and his blond brows arched. “I beg your pardon?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You’ve arrived on the first day of the Marrywell May Day Matchmaking Festival. No one is available for hire to drive you anywhere, and I daresay there won’t be anyone to repair your coach. Not until the festival concludes. In a week. We could take all of you to town in our, ah, carriage or the much sturdier cart, however I think you will be more comfortable waiting here while the doctor is alerted to your needs.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The older man—the valet, Sadie deduced—stepped forward. “That is unacceptable. This is the Duke of Lawford.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Goodness, did the man think the duke was some sort of deity?</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie tried one last time. “Please come inside, at the very least so your coachman can rest.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke’s gaze flicked toward the house, a sprawling, several-times-expanded farmhouse that lacked a uniform style. One might call it “charming” or “quaint.” She could only imagine what an esteemed peer thought of it.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“It sounds as if we’ll need to secure lodging,” the duke said with a slight frown.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie gave him a sympathetic look. “I’m afraid that won’t be possible either. Every inn within a ten-mile radius will be booked to the rafters for the festival. Please, just come inside. We can discuss your options while your coachman rests.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke turned his head to the man holding his arm. “Come, Holden, let’s get you some tea.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Thank you, Your Grace.” The coachman winced as he moved forward, and Sadie noticed he was also limping.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie hastened to move the ladder. While she set the broom down first, however, the duke picked up the ladder and moved it out of the way of the door.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Thank you,” she murmured, adding, “Your Grace.” She picked up her basket and opened the door, gesturing for all three men to go inside.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Walking into the entrance hall, she led them on through the staircase hall into the parlor. She’d never been embarrassed of her home, and she still wasn’t, but she had to think their modest domicile was not up to ducal standards. The furniture was well cared for, but certainly not new, and the room, as a whole, didn’t pretend to possess any sense of style.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie held out her hand. “Please sit wherever you’d like. I will have our groom run into town to fetch Dr. Bigby.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The coachman sat carefully in a chair and the valet on the settee while the duke remained standing. “Your groom?” Lawford asked. “Who are you exactly?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Before she could respond, her father and eldest brother, Esmond, burst in.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Damn me, there’s a wrecked coach on the road!” Esmond blinked his jewel-green eyes at the three visitors.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie’s father, Winchell Campion, glanced toward the duke and his men, his brown gaze cautious and perhaps even judgmental. “Sadie, who are these gentlemen?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Father, Esmond, allow me to present His Grace, the Duke of Lawford. That is his coach on the road.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke’s eyes narrowed slightly as he regarded Sadie with a sudden blatant curiosity. “Your father owns this estate?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie gestured to her father and then her brother. “Yes, this is Winchell Campion, owner of Fieldstone and squire. This is my eldest brother, Esmond.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Your wheel came clean off!” Esmond said excitedly, sweeping off his hat to reveal his dark brown curls. “I bet that scared the piss out of you!” He laughed jovially, and Sadie stared at him.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Their father jabbed an elbow into Esmond’s side. “That is no way to greet a duke. Or anyone else, for that matter.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Esmond straightened and schooled his features into a more serious expression. It was an astonishing transformation and one that typically only their dear departed mother or Esmond’s wife could provoke. “Welcome, Duke,” he said.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“It’s ‘Your Grace,’” Sadie said softly. “Father, we need to fetch Dr. Bigby. The coachman’s arm is injured, and the valet hit his head.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke pivoted toward her father. “I said we could call on the doctor in town since we have to find lodging. However, your daughter has indicated this will not be possible.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“No, it will not,” her father said with a laugh. “There’s nary a room between here and Winchester.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Then we’ll hire a coach to drive us to our destination,” the duke said, as if Sadie hadn’t already explained that wouldn’t be possible. Did he not believe her?</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I told him that wouldn’t work either.” Sadie didn’t bother hiding her exasperation.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Listen to Sadie,” her father said. “She knows what’s what, and you won’t find a more clever girl.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“She mentioned you have a carriage. I would pay you handsomely if we could borrow it. I’ll have it returned as soon as possible.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie’s father laughed. “That carriage barely makes it to Marrywell and back. No, no, I’m afraid I couldn’t allow you to risk yourselves, especially not after the bad luck you’ve already experienced. Indeed, there’s no vehicle at Fieldstone that will suffice. Do not despair, however! You’ll stay here. We’ve plenty of room, especially since Philip wed a few months ago.” He referred to Sadie’s other older brother, who, like Esmond, lived in a cottage on the estate.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“We couldn’t impose,” the duke said tightly.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Her father walked to him and clapped him on the shoulder, oblivious to the duke’s eyes subtly rounding. “You must, and that’s all there is to it. Your coach is in dire need of repair, and you won’t find anyone to fix it until after the festival. Is your, er, wife with you?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The duke’s aristocratic jaw clenched as he looked down his nose at Sadie’s shorter father. “I do not have a duchess. When, pray tell, will the festival conclude?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie had also told him that detail. Had he heard nothing she’d said? She pursed her lips at him in annoyance.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“In a week.” Sadie’s father looked positively delighted.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“That is unacceptable!” the valet snapped.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“It is unfortunate,” the duke murmured.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">While Sadie’s father might be pleased to host the duke, Sadie found him arrogant. As well as attractive. No! That didn’t signify. “Can’t Jarvis repair the coach?” she asked. Jarvis was their retired groom and coachman. He lived in a small cottage on the estate.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“We can’t ask him to do that, not with his arthritic hands,” her father protested.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Perhaps he could advise Esmond and Philip, and they could do the actual work,” Sadie suggested. “I’m sure Adam and Richard could help too.” Those were her younger unmarried brothers.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I can direct them,” Holden said. “Can’t do much with my arm like this, but mayhap tomorrow, I can instruct them on how to repair the coach.” He shifted in the chair and promptly grimaced. Sadie felt certain he would hurt even more tomorrow and would need to rest.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Yes,” the valet said quickly. “We must do whatever is necessary to see His Grace on his way at the earliest possible moment.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Yates, everyone will do their best, but our accident has occurred at an inopportune time,” the duke said to the older man, sounding beleaguered. Lawford then shifted his gaze to Sadie. “I would appreciate if you could enlist whomever you can to work with Holden to complete the repair. I’ll pay you for the work and whatever you need.” The duke looked to his coachman. “I can help you if necessary.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Yates appeared horrified. “You cannot perform manual labor. They must have a coach we can borrow,” he insisted.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Lawford swung his gaze back to Sadie’s father, but it was Sadie who responded. “We do not have a vehicle sufficient for your needs. Our coach is old and…well, it’s inadequate for long trips.” Decrepit was the best description, but Sadie wasn’t going to say that.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The valet appeared thoroughly outraged. “But His Grace has important business that he must attend to.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Yes, well, Sadie needed to not have her orderly life interrupted either. She thought of all the tasks that weren’t getting done while she dealt with this crisis. And would continue to deal with if they hosted a very important guest for a week. Not to mention how their arrival would affect her plans to attend the matchmaking festival. The welcome reception was that very afternoon and set the stage for the entire weeklong event. All young ladies seeking to be matched attended the reception, as well as the May Queen, who chose seven of those ladies to be maidens fair. The queen and her court were the focal point of the festival, and being a maiden fair meant almost certain betrothal by the end of the festival. At twenty-four, Sadie was the same age as the oldest maiden fair ever chosen. This year was her last chance to find a husband—to have a home and family of her own.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie needed to finish her chores so she could get ready. “I’m sure my brothers—with Holden’s or Jarvis’s instruction—can manage the repair, and you’ll be on to your destination in no time. Mayhap even tomorrow.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Her father shook his head vigorously. “Impossible. Replacing the wheel will take a few days at least.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Yates opened his mouth, but the duke held up his hand toward him while keeping his focus on Sadie. The older man pressed his lips together.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Their maid Mavis came in and glanced around the room with interest.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie had meant to ring for her, but things had been too chaotic. She moved next to Mavis and spoke quietly. “This is the Duke of Lawford and his coachman and valet. Their coach lost its wheel, and they’ll be staying with us for…a while.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Bad luck for them unless they’re happy to attend a matchmaking festival.” Mavis grinned, then her gaze settled on the coachman. “I wouldn’t mind if he came along,” she whispered.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Ignoring the maid’s saucy observation, Sadie continued, “We need rooms prepared and a tea tray. Are you terribly busy helping Mrs. Rowell?” Their cook made the cakes for the welcome reception, and they were likely in the middle of boxing them all and loading the cart.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Gwen and Bryan can keep helping her,” Mavis said, referring to the other maid, who primarily assisted Mrs. Rowell in the scullery, and Mrs. Rowell’s son, who was their groom.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie grimaced. “We need Bryan to summon Dr. Bigby. His Grace’s coachman has hurt his arm, and his valet hit his head. But if you’re all leaving soon to set up at the reception, he can just take care of it then.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Mavis shook her head. “I’ll send him now.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“And Gwen should bring tea,” Sadie said.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I’ll let her know.” Mavis waggled her dark brows. “Nothing like a bit of excitement on the first day of the festival!”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie didn’t want this kind of excitement when she was trying to get her chores done so she could go to the reception!</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Mavis looked to the coachman, who was wincing at that moment. “He looks to be in pain. I’ll get his room sorted straightaway.” She left the parlor with haste.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie addressed their guests. “We’ll have tea in a few minutes, and hopefully, the doctor will arrive within the hour. Your rooms will be ready shortly. Is there anything else we can do for you at the moment?” Sadie was desperate to get on with the things she needed to complete before the reception, but wondered if she ought to stay and entertain the duke. She dearly hoped not.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I don’t suppose you could see about removing my coach from the road?” the duke asked.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Of course.” Sadie turned her head toward her father and brother. “Papa? Esmond?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Yes, yes,” Papa said. “Esmond! Fetch your brothers and move His Grace’s coach.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie should have realized her father wouldn’t help. He much preferred to direct, and even then, he was content to let Sadie manage nearly everything.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Before Esmond could go, the duke stopped him. “Mr. Campion, if you also wouldn’t mind bringing our cases to the house since we are to be…staying here, I would be most appreciative.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Esmond nodded. “Right away, My Grace.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Wincing inwardly, Sadie hoped the duke hadn’t noticed that her brother didn’t know the slightest thing about proper address. Sadie wasn’t sure she knew all the rules.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The coachman, Holden, stood abruptly. He clenched his jaw and clutched his injured arm more tightly. “I must retire. Doesn’t matter if a room’s prepared. Do you have something in the stables?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I’m afraid not,” Sadie replied, hating to see the man in pain. “You should be in the house anyway, so the doctor can examine your arm. We’ll have your room ready in no time. In fact, I’ll go see to it.” That would get her out of the parlor so she could finish her chores.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Pivoting, she left the room but was stopped in the staircase hall by her father, who’d followed her. “Where are you going?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“To help Mavis prepare the rooms. That should have been obvious since I said as much.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I mean, why are you leaving the duke? You need to stay and entertain him.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie looked down at her attire and tucked a loose curl behind her ear. “Am I garbed for entertaining? No. I’m dressed for chores. Please let me complete them before I need to prepare for the reception.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“You’re going?” he asked, surprised.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I’m sure I mentioned it.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I would have remembered,” he said with misplaced certainty. “You’ve only attended—as a potential bride—once. I thought you never meant to return.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">That had been her intent after the disastrous first year she’d attended the festival as a potential bride. Sadie brushed the memory away. She couldn’t afford to let it occupy her mind when she was, in fact, hoping to use the festival for what it was intended—to find a husband. “I’m twenty-four, Father.” Sadie was out of time, which was why she needed to attend the reception this year. “Don’t you think it’s time I wed?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“In fact, I do,” he said, shocking her. He’d never shown the slightest interest in her marital prospects. He was content to have her here managing Fieldstone’s household. “And we must thank divine intervention for the arrival of a duke on our doorstep.” He grinned, his dark eyes dancing with excitement.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">What on earth was her father doing? “I would appreciate you not matching me with the duke. That isn’t even within the realm of possibility.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Why not?” he asked, sounding petulant. “You are pretty and capable. I wager you could manage his ducal estate with ease.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She stared at him, wishing he expressed appreciation of her skills when there wasn’t a duke involved. “Then consider this: I don’t want to manage his ducal estate.” The idea of wedding a duke was preposterous. She wouldn’t know the first thing. “I’m going to the reception, where, if I am lucky, the queen will choose me to be crowned one of her seven maidens fair tonight.” That was Sadie’s best chance of making a match. The maidens fair were the most sought after by the bachelors seeking to wed.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Her father appeared nonplussed. “Why do you need to be a maiden fair or even attend the festival when you have a duke right here?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie exerted considerable effort not to roll her eyes. “I’m going to prepare the rooms, then do the rest of my chores. You entertain His Grace. And do not play matchmaker. He’s a duke and I’m a…I don’t know what I am,” she muttered.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She marched up the stairs and met Mavis in the corridor. The maid carried a stack of linens. “I was just taking these to His Grace’s chamber. Then I’m going to run up and take care of the room for the coachman and valet.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“I can make the duke’s bed,” Sadie offered, taking the linens. “Put the coachman and valet in the room at the end of the corridor.” It was the largest on the second floor and had two beds. Only two rooms on that level were occupied—by Mavis and Gwen. Mrs. Rowell lived in a cottage on the estate with her husband and their son.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“That was my thought as well,” Mavis said. She inclined her head down the corridor. “The duke will be right across from you.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Sadie briefly closed her eyes. “You aren’t going to play matchmaker like my father, are you?”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">The maid, who was a few years older than Sadie and had been with the household for over five years, smiled as disbelief flickered in her gaze. “That’s surprising to hear, but I suppose it’s not every day a duke lands on one’s doorstep.”</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“What is it about a duke that makes everyone atwitter?” Sadie mused.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">“Come now, don’t tell me you don’t find him handsome,” Mavis said with a sly smile.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She did, in fact. And arrogant. Shaking her head, Sadie walked past Mavis feeling disgruntled.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">Everyone viewed the arrival of a duke as some sort of splendid opportunity for Sadie, but to her, it was a massive imposition. She liked order and routine as she had a great many things to manage on a daily basis. This week, she’d planned on attending the entire festival for the first time in four years, and now that was in jeopardy because of the additional work having the duke here would bring.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">She would just have to make do. This was her last chance to be chosen as a maiden fair, which would all but guarantee she would wed. Then, she could manage her own household and have her own family.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">If not, she’d become the Spinster of Fieldstone. And life would pass her by.</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><br /></p>

the clay arenas of a warrior's life in Agon. They sail the Physis Sea, chasing
mystery and meaning, and swim in the clear pool at the bottom of the Western

purpose can do when it's authentic and hard-won.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>AN EXCERPT, THE REFUGE, CHAPTER 9</b></p><p class="MsoNormal">This excerpt takes place when Matthew, a royal-born prince is fighting his duty to choose a wife and take over the family business. He has questions about how his father has chosen to lead, and even more questions about the foundation on which his territory is built. His internal conflicts about his inheritance are causing him to drag his feet when it comes to choosing a match and properly preparing to be King of the Diamond Isles. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>“Mother, I don’t know that I can do this. I—”</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>She cut him off with a curt shake of her head.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>“Matthew.” Her voice was raised as loud as she ever allowed it—and it got his attention.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>“Do not dishonor your family by continuing that thought. The exile was something that happened long before your father became king—you know that. You were born pure. You were born the son of a king. You will be king of the isles and the king of Triton.”</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Matthew tried to interject but she spoke over him.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>“You will accept your birthright as those before you have—just as your father did.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Matthew watched emotion collect at the bottom of her brilliant blue eyes, stunned to silence at her iron response.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>“Son, you have no idea the sacrifice that has been made to protect your position. I will not allow you to lose it through something so dishonorable and small as self-pity.”</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>She was unmoving. And more emotional than he ever considered she would be. Matthew was concerned about disappointing her, but this reaction was one much beyond mere disappointment. This reaction looked more related to anger—or fear, maybe. He couldn’t place it. He couldn’t understand it. He didn’t know from what deep reservoir it rose.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Matthew felt his mother’s grip on his hand begin to loosen, not realizing how tightly she’d squeezed it during her discourse. He blinked in disbelief and tried to understand from where her reaction came. She seemed ready for his words—prepared almost. He wondered if she’d known his feelings already, maybe even for a long while. She was his mother, after all.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Even so, it surprised him to see her call vehemently for his silent and dutiful obedience to the subject.

Being an actress, Kate is no stranger to drama. And when her chance at a
leading role gets cancelled, she is willing to do whatever it takes to get her
acting career back on track even if that means getting a boring office job at
her best friend's father's law firm so she can prove to her parents she can to
support herself rather than go back to high school. Now, rather than living
life on the big screen, she is stuck filing mundane contracts and watching the
people in the office across from hers live their equally boring lives.<br />
<br />
But when Kate sees things heat up between a woman and her assistant, her new
source of entertainment take a turn for the worse when she witnesses a double
murder. Now, she must get anyone to believe her and find out who this mystery
woman is to get answers. But as she learns more and more about the
circumstances leading to the gruesome act, she begins to realize there is a
bigger mystery under the surface...<br />

<b>In this voyeuristic thriller filled with twists and turns, can Kate get anyone
to believe her before she becomes the next victim?<o:p></o:p></b></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b>PROLOGUE</b> </p><p class="MsoNormal">KATE SAT AS STILL AS SHE COULD IN THE FAUX LEATHER ARMCHAIR, sweat pilling up on her forehead and chin beneath the intense heat of the two thousand-Watt open face Tungsten flood lights while Marielle, her makeup artist, stood at her shoulder, powder brush poised and ready. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate was used to these moments of forced stillness. After three months in production on the Dirty Pretty Teens series, she’d gone from acting novice to seasoned pro, and she’d learned to sit quietly between takes and let the professionals do their jobs. </p><p class="MsoNormal">At first, she’d wondered why they couldn’t, like, turn off the damn lights so it wasn’t as infernally hot while the actors held in place, but since the rest of the cast—all television veterans—were unfazed by the uncomfortable heat, Kate kept her thoughts to herself. Eventually, she realized that the grips frequently scuttled around resetting and rearranging the entire lighting apparatus during brief interruptions as the A.D. and cinematographer tweaked their setup. These pauses in the action were only a pause for the actors. Everyone else was still in motion. </p><p class="MsoNormal">But this hold was different. Instead of the usual flurry of movement, most of the crew was focused on a corner of the coffee shop set where the director and producers were huddled around a small playback screen. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Even blonde, teen sensation Belle Masterson, the star of Dirty Pretty Teens who rarely paid attention to anything that wasn’t directly related to Belle Masterson, was interested in this coterie. Sure she’d whipped out her phone the moment the director yelled “cut” and had pretended to swipe through screens to avoid human interaction, but though her chin was tucked down, her pale cheeks had flushed pink and her blue eyes were fixed on the production team. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Or on Dex Pratt’s ass. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Which was essentially the same thing. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate was new to the entertainment industry, but she was pretty sure that seventeen-year-old actresses throwing themselves at their married, thirty-eight-year-old show runners was frowned upon. Not that it stopped Belle. She took every opportunity to touch Dex—a hand on his arm, a brush against his shoulder, a playful shove like prepubescent kids who were learning that even negative touching was still touching. When Belle wasn’t eliciting skin-to-skin contact with Dex, she was flirting with him from afar with signals even Kate’s cataract-ridden great-aunt could have spotted from fifty paces. </p><p class="MsoNormal">That girl was wild bananas. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Marielle made her finishing touches on Kate’s nose, her eyes straying to the brain trust in the corner. “They’d better made a decision soon. You’re going to pumpkin at the top of the hour.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate wasn’t supposed to move when getting her face touched up, but she always smiled when someone on set used “pumpkin” as a verb. It meant she, as a minor, was about to hit the end of her work day when the director would lose her for the next twelve hours. She was the only official minor on the production—Belle Masterson had miraculously passed her California High School Proficiency Exam at sixteen which meant she could work on set as “legal eighteen” without fear of pumpkining—and working around Kate’s availability under California labor law was a huge concern for the production. Usually, everyone moved at lightning speed as Kate’s pumpkin hour approached. </p><p class="MsoNormal">But not today. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Marielle swept her long jumbo box braids behind one shoulder and stepped back to check her work. “All set.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Thank you!” Kate said, smiling. Marielle had been a huge help to Kate throughout the production, especially the first week on set when she’d offered gentle nudges and suggestions when Kate had no idea what she was supposed to be doing. Kate was pretty sure she’d have been fired if not for the kindness of her makeup artist. </p><p class="MsoNormal">The scene they’d just shot was a poignant reminder of Kate’s bewildering first day on set. She and Belle—or rather their characters Noelle and Piper—at a coffee shop, arguing over their romantic entanglements, a mirror image of the first scene they’d ever shot together. She and Belle had sat in those same sticky, slick chairs, morphing from near strangers to BFFs the second the cameras started to film. Kate recalled how desperately nervous she’d been sitting across the table from the former Disney Channel star in her form fitting body con mini dress while Kate’s size sixteen curves were camouflaged by an open plaid blazer that couldn’t have buttoned over her ample chest without popping a seam. Even with brand new highlights in her reddish-brown hair and </p><p class="MsoNormal">Marielle’s contouring skills, Kate had felt like a double-wide trailer parked beside a Ducati, and she was positive someone would realize she wasn’t actually an actress and that casting her had been a horrific mistake. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate kept trying to remind herself of how awesome this opportunity was—the role of Noelle in the Dirty Pretty Teens books was certainly not written as a plus size person, and how often did actresses who looked like Kate get to indulge in frothy, soapy roles like this? But instead of calming her down, Kate had only increased her stress, feeling the pressure of representation. She’d been sick to her stomach with it and the only thing that had saved her were her dad’s parting words when he’d dropped her off that morning: </p><p class="MsoNormal">“All the world’s a stage, Katie-Bear,” he’d said in his deep, booming bass-baritone. “When in doubt, look to the Bard.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Usually, Kate rolled her eyes at her dad’s insistence that every situation in the entire universe from asking someone on a date to negotiating global disarmament treaties could be solved with a simple “look to the Bard,” as if Shakespeare was a soothsaying prophet like Nostradamus and his plays were merely blueprints for the centuries that followed. Mack Williams— Shakespearean scholar, former amateur actor, and adjunct professor of Jacobean literature—was biased, but that day, his advice had struck a chord with his daughter. As she’d sat nervously at her makeup station, frantically going through the upcoming scene in her head, she’d started to panic. She was dropping words, reciting her lines out of order, for </p><p class="MsoNormal">getting her blocking. What was her motivation? Why was her character doing any of this bullshit in the first place? None of it made sense. When in doubt, look to the Bard. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate had focused on her character Noelle Wagner, spunky best friend of Belle’s Piper Payne. Noelle was trustworthy and brave, though she harbored a secret crush on Piper’s on-again off-again boy toy Sebastian who had once asked Noelle out before falling for Piper. Meanwhile, Wyatt, the guy Piper really wanted, was pretending to be interested in Noelle in order to make Piper jealous, driving a wedge between the two friends that fueled most of the series’ plot points. It was a ridiculous and convoluted soap opera, and Kate was thankful that she’d never read the young adult novels on which the series was based because there was no way she’d have been able to keep a straight face at the audition if she’d known what was coming. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Still, convoluted or not, the story lines were reminiscent of the four Athenian lovers in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Piper, Sebastian, Wyatt, and Noelle were easily juxtaposed onto Hermia, Demetrius, Lysander, and Helena. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Helena, whose boyfriend falls in love with her best friend. Helena, who sees her best friend turn on her after the gods make both of the men lust after her. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind, </p><p class="MsoNormal">And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind. </p><p class="MsoNormal">In an instant, years of Kate’s dad drilling Shakespeare into her unexpectedly paid off as the entire role of Noelle had come into focus. What she wanted, why she wanted it. For the first time since Kate had been cast, it all made sense. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Maybe Shakespeare really was a prophet? </p><p class="MsoNormal">Bananas. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Time and again over the past few months, Kate had returned to Helena and A Midsummer Night’s Dream when she felt lost. Even now, on the last day of shooting, in this final scene, a pivotal confrontation between best friends, Helena was a beacon. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Is all the counsel that we two have shared, </p><p class="MsoNormal">The sisters’ vows, the hours that we have spent</p><p class="MsoNormal">When we have chid the hasty-footed time </p><p class="MsoNormal">For parting us? Oh, is all forgot? </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Act three, scene two,” she said under her breath. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“What?” Belle turned to her sharply, eyes narrowed, as if she’d caught Kate talking shit behind her back. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Oh, um, nothing.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Did you say something about my acting?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Not everything is about you. “I was quoting Shakespeare.” “Why?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">As someone who didn’t care how the sausage was made, the word “why” never came out of Belle’s mouth. Kate was momentarily thrown. Most of their interactions had been Belle monologuing about herself or giving unsolicited advice to her co-star, neither of which required much of a response. Which was fine. When Kate wasn’t sure how to respond, she usually stayed quiet, and that seemed to be what Belle wanted most of the time anyway. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Now Belle was looking at her intently, eyes pinched with suspicion, waiting for an answer. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I just . . . I use Helena in A Midsummer Night’s Dream as inspiration for Noelle.” She paused, wondering why she felt the need to explain herself, but couldn’t stop talking. “My dad says you can solve almost any problem by looking to the Bard.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">It sounded super corny when she said it out loud. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Belle was silent for a moment, eyes still locked on Kate. “Hot or not?” “Shakespeare?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“The chick. Helen.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Belle’s priorities were so out of whack. “I guess Helena’s hot?” “You guess.” Belle dropped her phone to her lap, suddenly interested. “And who am I?”</p><p class="MsoNormal">That was a loaded question, but Kate decided to stick with Shakespeare. “I suppose that makes you Hermia.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Awful name,” Belle said, wrinkling her upper lip. “Is she hot?” Kate needed to extricate herself from this conversation before her brain exploded. “Well, she has two different guys in love with her at the beginning of the play.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Belle gasped. “That sounds just like me!” Then she picked up her phone and went back to watching Dex while pretending to swipe. And I have to shoot a whole second season with her . . . </p><p class="MsoNormal">Movement and raised voices from the corner of the coffee shop forced everyone to attention. Dex shook hands with the A.D. then slapped the director on the back before turning around to address the entire room. He smiled broadly, an unfamiliar expression and one that made his overly tanned face seem more cheerful than shrewd. For half a second, Kate got what Belle saw in him. He was handsome—sure, like, whatever. This was L.A. Everyone was hot. And Dex’s brand of hot was “white frat boy” laced with a privileged douchebaggery which negated the hotness. But his authoritarian power on the set was, at the very least, arresting, and paired with a cheerful smile, Kate kinda sorta understood the appeal. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Except, no, ew. He was, like, almost as old as her dad. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Well—” Dex began, then paused dramatically, stretching his arms wide, holding everyone’s attention in his embrace. “That’s a wrap on sea son one!” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Belle bolted to her feet, rapidly clapping her dainty hands like a mad pair of hummingbird wings, and let out a high-pitched cheer. It was the signal to celebrate, and the rest of the crew hugged and high-fived on a job well done. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Dex made his way through a shallow sea of assistants and technicians, shaking hands and slapping people on their backs as if they were all his </p><p class="MsoNormal">close, personal friends. He caught Kate’s eye and made a beeline for her. “Excellent job, Kate,” he said, flashing that Hollywood smile—dazzlingly white teeth against overly tanned skin. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Thank you.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">He opened his arms, inviting a hug. “Bring it in.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">That’s a first. Dex usually kept his cast at arm’s length, which was fine because Kate wasn’t exactly the touchy-feely type, and as he squeezed her shoulders, she felt her body tense. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I, uh, can’t believe it’s over,” she said awkwardly. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Only season one!” Dex lingered, holding Kate in place long after she’d have been comfortable pulling away. “I get the pleasure of seeing you again in just a few months.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Belle snarl. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Dex tugged on her shoulders, pulling her body into his. A fatherly gesture, but Kate didn’t love how her double d’s smushed into his abs. “I’m so glad your friend dragged you to that audition.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Uh, me too.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“So. Glad.” He tightened his embrace with each word, his arm drop ping from her shoulders to her waist. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate tried to express “I’m stuck here against my will” with just her face, but Belle was all daggers as she rounded the small table that buffered Kate from her rage. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Are you done?” Belle practically spit out the words. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Kate wasn’t sure if they were meant for Dex or herself, but Dex took his time releasing Kate from the forced embrace, slowly letting his arms fall away. She scampered aside, smoothing down the lines of her shirt. “Thanks, Mr. Pratt,” she said, intentionally formal. “I appreciate all of your guidance.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">Belle stepped between them, honed on Kate like a cheetah on a wilde beest. “I’m sure you do.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“You’re very welcome,” Dex said, ignoring the starlet’s jealousy. “See you at the wrap party tomorrow, yes?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Of course.” Suddenly, the Dirty Pretty Teens wrap party was the last place on the planet Kate wanted to be, but she couldn’t no show. She’d promised to take Rowan as her plus one and her best friend would never forgive her if she backed out. “See you then.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">Dex opened his mouth to respond, but Belle tugged on his arm, shut ting him up. Kate headed for her trailer, her actor’s high from shooting the final scene of the season dimming as she struggled with the weirdness of her encounter with Dex and Belle. </p><p class="MsoNormal">She ventured a glance back at them as she slipped through the door into the tepid February sunshine. Belle was still pouting, hands crossed over her chest like a toddler on the brink of a meltdown. Dex leaned down, whispering, his lips close to her ear. Then just as he was about to pull away, Dex paused. </p><p class="MsoNormal">And Kate thought she saw him plant a kiss on the arch of Belle’s porcelain neck.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p>

you also cloned a horde of dinosaurs and let them rampage down the street.</span></b></span><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk127534155;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk127534155;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Supergenius and quasi-villain Rex
normally can’t go a week without accidentally endangering Decimen City with her
science shenanigans. It’s been two weeks since her genetically engineered
dinosaurs rampaged through town―a good streak for her―but the peace is broken
when actual villain Last Dance sets his sights on Decimen. And he wants Rex’s
help. Before Rex can say “I didn’t do it,” superheroes who’ve dragged her to
jail on her worst days are crowding her lab to conscript her into
quasi-herodom.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk127534155;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Rex would rather stay out of it and
deal with the dinosaurs that keep calling her Mom, but she can’t ignore that
she was somewhat responsible for Last Dance’s villainy. She’d kept a very
disorganized lab. And he was such a nosy brother. She failed to help him back then,
but maybe if she stops him now―and keeps the heroes fooled―she can finally set
things right.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

her writing career with Amelia Bedelia fanfiction on hand-stapled printer
paper. Her early original work was entrusted to gel pens and floppy disks, then
ballpoint and flash drives, and briefly, receipt paper from her first job. In
her Academic Period, she produced dry and esoteric works for which she was
awarded a master's degree. She has also dabbled in visual media, and her
minimalist comic, Ice Cream Money from Grandma, hangs proudly on her
grandmother's refrigerator. She resides in Texas, where she teaches for a
living and bakes for fun.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

I laughed. “Like you could have stopped me.” I took my bag from Anna and dug for my wallet. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I just know that your mom would freak out if she knew I went along with this.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">I put my money and ID back in my wallet and threw it in my bag. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Do you see my mom?” I looked around the perimeter. “You didn’t go along with anything. I made the decision to go parasailing and I’m glad I did. It was exhilarating.” I wrapped my arm around Anna’s shoulder and smiled at her as we walked. The soz sand under my bare feet energized me. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Why would her mom be mad at you?” Dave looked over at Anna as he raised up from grabbing a shell from the sand. I drew my eyes down at Anna and shook my head. “Because my mom is a worry wart, she pleads with Anna to keep me safe.” I laughed hoping that Dave wouldn’t ask more questions. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“So what was it like being up in the air like that?” Anna asked. </p><p class="MsoNormal">At least she was trying to change the subject. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“It was awesome” Dave said with a grin. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“It was Anna. You should try it with us next time.” “Hot a chance.” Anna said. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Be all laughed and continued our short walk back to the house. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“So how was it?” Rick asked when we made it to his beach spot. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Awesome” Dave and I answered in unison. Be both laughed. Rick laughed at us for answering together. “You’re back.” Travis said as he walked down the steps from the house. he smiled at us more at Anna but he looked at all three of us. His eyes glistened when he smiled at her. It warmed my heart and made me smile seeing these two fall for each other hopefully one of us could live happily ever after. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Come on Rayna you’re my partner” Dave said. he pulled my hand toward a setup Jeld in the sand. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“What do you wanna play?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Bucket ball. That’s what they played while we were gone. Rick and Jeff are undefeated. We have to beat them” “And you think we can do that?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“You said you played sports in high school. Bell this is just like basketball and beer pong put together.” Dave picked up a ball. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“You just toss this ball down there into one of those buckets. If you get the ball in the bucket the other team has to remove the bucket. Just like beer pong.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I’ve never played beer pong.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“What?!!” Dave looked at me like I was an alien. “What do you mean you never played beer pong? Didn’t you just graduate college?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I did, but I did most of it online. Remember I told you I just moved out of my mom and dad’s and moved in with Anna.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“So you never went to parties?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“no, I didn’t”. I took a breath and braced myself for his laughter. ,e didn’t laugh. ,e just looked confused. “Let’s get this game started” Dave yelled. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Dave didn’t pry. I liked that about him. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I met him a few days ago. ,e made me feel comfortable. </p><p class="MsoNormal">ffe2 and Rick hurried over to their buckets and picked up the balls. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Losers first” jeff yelled. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I’ll show you loser” Dave said. “Go ahead Rayna.” I tossed the ball and missed. Dave tossed his and missed. Rick and ffe2 harassed us. The game went on for a while. Sut in the end Dave and I beat them. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Who is the loser now?” Dave chuckled. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Jeff flipped Dave the bird and walked toward the house. Dave laughed again and put the balls in the bucket. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Guys we need to get ready if we’re gonna play the show tonight.” Rick pointed at his watch. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Always the slave driver.” Dave shot back at him with a grin. Be gathered our things and started for the house. “Five me that stuff.” Dave threw his towel over his shoulder and took my bag from my hands. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Thanks.” Food looking and a gentleman. I locked arms with Anna as we followed the guys up the steps to the house. The guys quickly showered and dressed. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Be need to get the equipment set up and do sound check so we’ll see you later” Rick yelled as he opened the front door. </p><p class="MsoNormal">I stuck my head out of my room. “Okay see you there.” “Bye Rayna. I’ll see you in a few hours.” Dave waved at me. I waved back."</p><p class="MsoNormal">I showered and dressed. Anna’s music blared from her room. She was making the final touches to her makeup when I walked in. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“You look fantastic! That leather mini skirt shows off those long tanned legs. I love it! You’re gonna give someone a heart attack looking like that!” Anna said. </p><p class="MsoNormal">I smirked at her and did a little spin. Dressing up in sexy clothes did make me more optimistic. “Thanks.” I grinned at her. “You look kinda fabulous yourself.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Thanks! I hope Travis thinks so too.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">I shook my head at her and smiled. “Let’s go see Travis.” I joked. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Anna put her mascara down and grabbed her purse from the sink. She followed me out the front door to the car. I drove almost a mile. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“We could have walked you know. My heart won’t fail from a little walk.” I gave Anna a disapproving look as I locked the car doors. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Anna grimaced at me. “Walk in heels and break a sweat after all the hard work on our hair and makeup? HeverN4 A look of astonishment on her face. </p><p class="MsoNormal">I laughed and locked arms with her as we walked across the street toward the club. My phone rang. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“It’s my mom Anna. Hold on a minute. Hi mom.” I held up a Finger to Anna. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Rayna! You didn’t call me back.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I know mom! I’m sorry. Anna and I lost track of time and almost forgot about the show tonight”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Rayna be careful being out with only Anna.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Mom! We are here with Rick and his friends, we aren’t alone. I have my mace.” I smiled at Anna. “Remember, you raised a smart girl.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“I know Rayna. I worry too much I guess. Your fragile condition doesn’t help my nerves. I will always worry. Text when you get back to the house so I know you are in. Be safe and I love you. Enjoy yourself.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I will. I love you too mom. And tell dad I love him.” I hung up the phone and put it in my small leather purse. I grabbed Anna’s arm and gave her a big smile. “Let’s go have some fun girl.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">The club was nearly packed. We paid the cover charge and pushed our way through all the young faces toward the stage to find Rick. People were everywhere. Some played pool while others gathered around the bar or tables causing a sea of unrelenting chatter. You could hardly hear yourself think. After looking for a few seconds I spotted him. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Hey Rick!” I yelled over the music coming from the juke1 box. he glanced over his shoulder and waved us over to the side stage. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I wondered where you two were!” Rick said. He continued hooking up cables and wires to speakers and lights. “I thought maybe you got lost!” Rick teased. “The band is gonna start in about ten minutes. I reserved a table for us up front.” He yelled over the noise and pointed to a table close to the stage. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“We had to make ourselves beautiful, Rick” Anna grinned at Rick. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“And you both are. I’ll fetch you two beautiful ladies a soda, be right back.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I can’t wait until the band starts. I’m so excited for you to see them. You should have gone with me when I saw them a few months ago!” Anna stated. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I wanted to! But you know I wasn’t up to par then, and when I’m fatigued, it’s hard to force myself out of the house. My doctors figured my medicine out now. And that helps with the fatigue. I’m ready to start having some fun before it’s too late. I mean, all that money my grandfather left me, I need to spend some right.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“Hey! We’re not going to talk about sad things tonight. We’re gonna have a wonderful time tonight and the rest of the week. When Seer starts playing, you’ll be ready to get your groove on and be free of all the worry,” Anna said. She sounded like she was barking orders to me. But I understood she only volunteered encouraging words. </p><p class="MsoNormal">The band took the stage and started to play an interesting guitar riff, my attention was perked. I enjoyed rock music and loved to lose myself in the rhythm. And Anna was right. The guys looked amaWing6 all of them. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Woooooooo!” Anna yelled and clapped her hands. I could feel the drum and the guitar pounding in my chest. Anna always gave off incredible vibes. I gave her an evil grin and she knew I was ready to have fun. </p><p class="MsoNormal">The band finished the first song and the singer, Dave’s brother that I hadn’t met yet, introduced the band members. His voice came out low and sexy when he sang. You wouldn’t think that deep raspy sound would come out of such a young looking face. He was cute, but the drummer Dave was the best looking in my opinion. Dave’s skin tone was the same as the singer’s, but Dave’s hair was shorter. The singer’s eyes were darker and when he smiled, he exposed straight white teeth. Anyone could tell they were brothers. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I see that smile. I told you the band was awesome?” Anna smirked. “And we get to spend the entire week with those fine looking guys.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">I smiled at Anna and raise my glass of coke to give her a toast as the band started playing a slower tune. It sounded just as amazing as the first song. The band played a few more songs and I grabbed Anna’s arm and dragged her to the dance floor with the others that decided they liked the music. I felt free and young instead of the old grumpy cat I had become in the last few years. I enjoyed this carefree experience. Anna and I slowly moved to the front of the stage as we danced. We danced to every song. </p><p class="MsoNormal">As I glanced up at the band, I made eye contact with the singer, Nick. Hs deep brown eyes were shockingly intense. When our eyes locked something happened that I’d never experienced before. It was like I had known him all my life. I couldn’t pull my eyes away. A magnet kept pulling my eyes to his. </p><p class="MsoNormal">I thought I’d given up on guys because of the heart break with the last one, but if he would step on the stage right at that moment and asked me to leave with him, I would have. I never believed in love at first sight, but I thought I might be experiencing it right there in the club in front of hundreds of people. I continued moving to the music, but I sensed I was in a trance. Nick turned his eyes away and released the trance he pulled me into. He had some kind of power over me. </p><p class="MsoNormal">The band finished the song and the crowd roared. “Thank you everyone for hanging out with us tonight!” the singer said and took a bow. “We’ll be playing on the other side of town in a few days if you want to come join us again.” I brought my thoughts back to reality and glanced at Anna. She was looking at me with a confused expression. He walked over to our table and stood by our chairs. I had never been drunk, but I bet it felt something like this. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“RaynaC are you okay? You look goofy,” concerned, Anna examined my face. </p><p class="MsoNormal">I kinda smiled at her not knowing if I was okay. “I’m not sure. I’ve never experienced that before. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“What! What haven’t you experienced before?” Anna demanded as she squeezed my arm. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“This instant attraction to someone, like I would follow them around the world.... like I have known them for years. Like....” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Your soul mate? I saw you two lock eyes. I knew something was happening.” Anna let go of my arm. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Sssshhh, they’re coming over here,” I whispered to her. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Anna gave a little squeeze to my hand with a big smile on her face. Rick led the group of guys. They all walked toward us with immense confidence and huge smiles on their faces, except the singer Nick. His face showed annoyance. Travis walked directly to Anna and stood by her. Dave chose the spot beside me and Nick beside him. Rick did formal introductions. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“This is Nick Perry, our singer and Dave’s brother. Nick, these beautiful ladies are Anna Cass and Rayna Taylor.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Hi,” Anna and I said at the same time. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Hi,” Nick repeated as he threw his hand up to wave. He moved his eyes away quickly not acknowledging me. He leaned on the table with one elbow and glanced around at the crowd. his white tank top showed off his dark skin and defined biceps and shoulders. The soft hairs on his chest stuck out of the top of his shirt. I glanced at him again, but he still wouldn’t meet my eyes. I felt as if I had a stupid little girl crush on someone that didn3t even know I existed. Maybe he was pretentious. </p><p class="MsoNormal">I could sense Nick looking at me and I peeked up and smiled. he forced a smile and looked away again. Everyone talked and laughed around the table, but my mind was elsewhere. My stomach churned with those butterflies and my skin rippled with electricity having Nick so close to me. I wanted to reach out and touch his skin. Touch the tattoo of a cross on his shoulder. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“We better pack this stuff up and get it in the van,” Nick said. “I’m not feeling so good.” He chugged his water, turned, and hopped back into the stage to begin the tear down. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Yeah, let’s get this stuff together and head back to the house where we can relax and hang out. It has been a long day.” Travis said. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Travis, the lead guitarist, and Anna hadn’t stopped talking since the band finished playing. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I better help.” Dave winked at me as he stood up to go to help take stuff down. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Dave had the same dark mysterious eyes as Nick, but I noticed every detail in Nick’s face. It was so beautiful. He tucked his long, shaggy, brown hair behind his ears. Even though he didn’t smile but once, I couldn’t stop looking at him as he worked to clean the stage. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Let’s help them load up.” Anna bought me out of my hypnotic state. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Anna and I wound up black cords and carried them out to the van. Nick was already in the van packing things. He took the cords from me and our skin touched. The electricity from our skin touching was too much. He jerked the cord from my hand in haste. Our eyes locked again. I wanted to jump into the van and press my lips against his. He made me nervous, but it didn’t matter. The way I felt around him was intoxicating. It was different than anything I ever experienced. I couldn’t figure out what this feeling was. It scared me. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Thanks,” Nick said. I blinked out of my trance. He quickly looked away. He didn’t smile this time. he appeared annoyed. That’s when I bolted and almost ran back into the bar. I finally desired someone again. A warmth rose through my body so intense it scared me and he barely said more than one word to me. It must have been wishful thinking on my part because I had been out of the dating loop. Why did he act like I was just any other girl; like he wasn’t interested in me? I could have sworn some kind of connection was between us. I bumped into Anna as I walked stupefied across the wooden door of the club. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“What’s up Rayna? You seemed dazed.” Anna said as she gave me a confused look. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“He ignores me….like I don’t exist!” I said. My frustration must’ve been obvious. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Anna took my arms and led me to the table. She pushed me to my seat. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Nick avoided my eyes and he only said like one or two words to me. And these butterflies won’t stop dancing in my stomach.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I knew it. You both had a weird expression on your faces. Like you are entranced,” She swooned. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I’m not......... entranced with him,” I stuttered, “just dazzled.” I scrunched my nose and grinned. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Remember when we were little and Johnny liked you? Remember when he used to annoy you and we figured out he was just trying to get your attention?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">I shook my head yes remembering. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Older boys act goofy too when they like a girl, instead of annoyance, it’s avoidance. Get to know him a little more and you’ll see. I can tell that he likes you. You make him uncomfortable. That’s why he’s avoiding your eyes,” Anna said. She did make me feel a little bit better. </p><p class="MsoNormal">We followed the guys back to the house in the car and talked about it some more. Anna kept coaching until she had me smiling again. When we walked into the kitchen for a drink, we saw the guys outside on the deck goofing around. It looked as though they were giving Nick a hard time. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Anna and I walked out onto the deck. The sound of the ocean filled my ears. The waves beating on the shore were one of my favorite sounds. The ocean breeze blew my hair around my face. I looked over at Nick while he stared out at the dark ocean. He resembled a Greek god standing there. I wanted to walk over and touch him. But he seemed unapproachable and untouchable, far away in his own world. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Hey guys, you got here quick,” Anna said. They all glanced up and smiled at us. Everyone started talking about the night and how amazing the band played. Nick said few words. “I’m gonna head to bed.” Nick said. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“What?” Dave and Rick said. They looked at Nick in shock. “I’m not feeling well. I must be tired from the plane and playing tonight.” Hick said. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Catch you in the morning?” Dave -questioned. “Yep, goodnight everyone.” Nick wave his hand and hurried into the house. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“He’s off tonight man,” Travis said. “He hasn’t acted right since the middle of the show when I played that long riff. What’s the matter with him?”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“He usually is the last one to bed and the life of the party.” Dave said. “But tonight, he was just plain goofy.”</p><p class="MsoNormal">“He’s probably just tired. He told me he wrote an entire song on his plane ride down here. Hopefully tomorrow you girls will see the real Nick. You’ll love him.” Rick explained. I thought I already did. The guys just told me what I guessed. He was acting strange. This made me feel even bleaker. “Did you like the band tonight?” Dave asked. He took a drink of his beer. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Yes, you all did an awesome job. I love all the songs.” I said. I gave him a reassuring smile. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Nick writes all of our music. When he was still in the Marines, he had already written a lot of the lyrics. When he got out, we had lost our lead singer and we asked him to sing for us.” Dave said. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“How long has the band been playing?” I asked as I watched Anna laugh while she listened to Travis, Jeff, and Rick talk about something I couldn’t hear. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“We’ve been together for about a year now. Be made an album with help from some of our friends about a month ago. It turned out amazing.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I wanna buy one.” I smiled </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I’ll find you one tomorrow morning.” He grinned. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Sounds good.” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Rick said you just graduated from college too. What did you study?” </p><p class="MsoNormal">“I studied journalism. I hope to find a job in editing. I love books.” I gave him a frivolous smile because most people think I”m crazy for liking books so much. </p><p class="MsoNormal">“Maybe I could market some of your books that you edit. I graduated with a marketing degree. Maybe it can help with marketing the band.” Dave laughed. </p><p class="MsoNormal">Even though I thought Dave was the best looking in the beginning and he was giving me quite a bit of attention, I couldn’t stop my mind from thinking about Nick. I looked at my watch and saw that it was midnight. I excused myself and went into the house to put myself and my crazy mind to bed. As I got dressed for bed, I still couldn’t figure Nick out and couldn’t drive the way he affected me out of my head. Just thinking about him lying down in a bed on the floor above me gave me goose bumps. I dozed off to sleep with Nick hanging onto my dreams. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk125107291;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Briscoe Chambers is not only the
manager of her country music star husband, but a graduate student trying to
complete her Virginia Woolf thesis by fall - the same time her cheating
husband, Michael, has an album due to avoid being in breach of contract. No
problem, right?<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk125107291;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Except his co-writer will be Velvet
Wickens, his idol who has been opening shows for him. And who happens to be the
one he's cheating with. Now Briscoe has been asked by their record label to
ensure the album gets finished on time. To accomplish this, they must all live
together for the duration of the writing of the album.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk125107291;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">And by the way, Briscoe knows.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk125107291;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Fans of the writing of both Taylor
Jenkins Reid and Virginia Woolf will enjoy this novel that has plenty of sweet
tea, country music, Virginia Woolf, and heartache.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">A
mind-expanding journey to the very edge of science.</span></b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><br />
<br />
Caro Soames-Watkins, a talented neurosurgeon whose career has been upended by
controversy, is jobless, broke, and the sole supporter of her sister, a single
mother with a severely disabled child.<br />
<br />
When she receives a strange job offer from Nobel Prize-winning scientist Sam
Watkins, a great uncle she barely knows, desperation forces her to take it in
spite of serious suspicions.<br />
<br />
Watkins has built a mysterious medical facility in the Caribbean to conduct
research into the nature of consciousness, reality, and life after death.
Helped in his mission by his old friend, eminent physicist George Weigert, and
young tech entrepreneur Julian Dey, Sam has gone far beyond curing the body to
develop a technology that could solve the riddle of mortality.<br />
<br />
Two obstacles stand in their way: someone on the inside is leaking intel and
Watkins' failing body must last long enough for the technology to be ready.<br />
<br />
As danger mounts, Caro finds more than she bargained for, including murder,
love, and a deeper understanding into the nature of reality. <br />
<br />
A mind-expanding journey to the very edges of science, <i>Observer </i>will
thrill you, inspire you, and lead you to think about life and the power of the
imagination in startling new ways.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

So I’ll confine myself to favorite movies of the past few years. And before any of you start fuming (“Why didn’t she mention X? X was wonderful! X was—pick one—ground-breaking, subtle and nuanced, the epitome of Y! How could she ignore X?”), let me add that I have not seen every movie available in the last two years. Or the last year. Or the last month. But of what I did see, these were “Sticky.” Stickiness is a good measure of movies. It means that the plot or characters or cinematography or acting or something stuck in your head (although it doesn’t count if they’ve stuck because you saw it two nights ago.) So, an idiosyncratic list of recent sticky movies:</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Everything Everywhere All At Once (2023). I have never seen anything like this before. I’m not sure there has been anything like it before. In the beginning, we are in mundane reality (and nothing is more mundane and real than a tax audit). Then we are somewhere else, just as bewildered as the character who finds herself there. Things get more complicated, wackier, more inexplicable—until the explanation is grasped and the tension sets in—can these possibly succeed? And then, following the tension, the emotion, as we see through their pasts just how and why each flawed character behaves as they do. Ultimately, the movie centers on relationship: mother/daughter, husband/wife, as well as the relationships we could have had but chose not to. The actors are all wonderful, the invention endless, and who knew that you could do super-effective kung fu with a fanny pack? </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Tár (2023). This long, understated movie is the antithesis of Everything Everywhere. Firmly rooted in the current world of classical music, it builds very slowly as we see facets of superstar conductor Lydia Tár’s character. The film is a classic rise-and-fall-power-corrupts tale. It is also a counter to those who believe that predatory and unfeeling behavior belongs solely to “toxic masculinity.” But what really makes the movie is Cate Blanchett’s performance, which will earn her an Oscar if there is any cosmic justice (alas, there isn’t).</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Don’t Look Up (2021). Satire about either covid or climate change without ever mentioning either one. Instead, a comet is going to strike Earth and wipe out all human civilization. Some people think the danger is overstated, some think it’s a hoax, some freak out, some dig bunkers, some immediately calculate how this can be used for political gain (“The comet will save jobs!”), some (mostly scientists) beat their heads against walls trying to get someone to listen to the facts. In short, a satiric look at the varieties of human folly, succeeding by its very outrageousness.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Eighth Grade (2018). This one is older, but the stickiest of the bunch. Heart-breaking, perfect-pitch film about early adolescence, the social haves and have-nots, and teens’ love affair with social media. Four years later, it is still firmly in my head.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">You may have noticed that although I am a science fiction writer, the two science fiction films that stuck to me are not serious looks at science, tech, or the future. Although there are a few SF movies I like quite a lot (Arrival, Her), most of them assume that technology is synonymous with magic so if you just throw around a few “scientific terms,” you can make your plot do anything. Case in point: Interstellar, in which the only things that can escape a black hole are Hawking radiation and Matthew McConaughey. ‘Nuff said.</span></span></p><div><br /></div><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Robert Lanza is an American scientist
and author whose research spans the range of natural science, from biology to
theoretical physics. TIME magazine recognized him as one of the “100 Most
Influential People in the World,” and Prospect magazine named him one of the
"Top 50 World Thinkers.” <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">He has hundreds of scientific
publications and over 30 books, including definitive references in the fields
of stem cells, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicine. He is a former
Fulbright Scholar, and studied with polio-pioneer Jonas Salk and Nobel
laureates Gerald Edelman (known for his work on the biological basis of
consciousness) and Rodney Porter. He also worked closely (and co-authored
papers in Science on self-awareness and symbolic communication) with noted
Harvard psychologist BF Skinner. Dr. Lanza received his undergraduate and
medical degrees from the University of Pennsylvania, where he was both a
University Scholar and Benjamin Franklin Scholar. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Lanza was part of the team that
cloned the world’s first human embryo, the first endangered species, and
published the first-ever reports of pluripotent stem cell use in humans.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Lanza and his colleagues were also
the first to demonstrate that nuclear transplantation could be used to reverse
the aging process and to generate immune-compatible tissues, including the
first organ tissue-engineered from cloned cells. One of his early achievements
was his demonstration that techniques used in preimplantation genetic diagnosis
could be used to generate human embryonic stem cells without embryonic
destruction. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">He and colleagues have also succeeded
in differentiating human pluripotent stem cells into retinal cells, and has
shown that they provide long-term benefit in animal models of vision loss.
Using this technology some forms of blindness may be curable, including macular
degeneration and Stargardt disease, a currently untreatable form eye disease
that causes blindness in teenagers and young adults. Lanza's company received
FDA approval to carry out clinical trials in the US using them to treat
degenerative eye diseases, as well approval for the first human pluripotent stem
cell trial in Europe. The first patients reported improved vision in the eyes
treated with the cells, which The Guardian said "represents a huge
scientific achievement." <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Dr. Lanza and his colleagues
published the first-ever report of human pluripotent stem cells transplanted
into human patients. The patients who received the stem cell transplants say
their lives have been transformed by the experimental procedure--they report
that they can use their computers, thread a needle, or even go to the mall or airport
on their own. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Lanza has also been a major player in
the scientific revolution that has led to the documentation that nuclear
transfer/transcription factors can restore developmental potential in a
differentiated cell. One of his successes was showing that it is feasible to
generate functional oxygen-carrying red blood cells from human pluripotent stem
cells. The blood cells were comparable to normal transfusable blood and could
serve as a potentially inexhaustible source of "universal" blood. His
team also discovered how to generate functional hemangioblasts - a population
of "ambulance" cells - from hES cells. In animals, these cells
quickly repaired vascular damage, cutting the death rate after a heart attack
in half and restoring the blood flow to ischemic limbs that might otherwise
have to be amputated.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Lanza and a team lead by Kwang-Soo
Kim at Harvard University have also reported a safe method for generating
induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Human iPS cells were created from skin
cells by direct delivery of proteins, thus eliminating the harmful risks
associated with genetic manipulation. The Editors of the prestigious journal
Nature selected Lanza and Kim's paper on protein reprogramming as one of five
"Research Highlights." Discover magazine stated, "Lanza's
single-minded quest to usher in this new age has paid dividends in scientific
insights and groundbreaking discoveries." Fortune magazine called him
"the standard-bearer for stem cell research.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Dr. Lanza has received numerous
awards, including being named one of TIME Magazine's "100 Most Influential
People in the World"; the 2013 Il Leone di San Marco award in Medicine
(The Italian Heritage and Culture Committee, along with Regis Philbin [in
Entertainment]); including an NIH Director's Award (2010) for "Translating
Basic Science Discoveries into New and Better Treatments"; the 2010
'Movers and Shakers' Who Will Shape Biotech Over the Next 20 Years
(BioWorld)(along with Craig Venter and President Barack Obama); the 2007 100
Most Inspiring People in the Life-Sciences Industry (PharmaVOICE, "For his
discoveries 'behind the medicines making a significant impact on the pipelines
of today and of the future'"; the 2007 Outstanding Contribution in
Contemporary Biology Award (Brown University, "For his groundbreaking
research and contributions in stem cell science and biology"; the 2006
All-Star Award for Biotechnology (MA High Tech, for "pushing stem cells'
future"); the 2005 Rave Award for Medicine (Wired magazine, "For
eye-opening work on embryonic stem cells"); and Lanza is listed in Who's
Who in America, Who's Who in the World, Who's Who in Medicine and Healthcare,
Who's Who in Science and Engineering; Who's Who in American Education, and
Who's Who in Technology, among others. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Dr. Lanza and his research have been
featured in almost every media outlet in the world, including CNN, TIME,
Newsweek, People, as well as the front pages of the New York Times, Wall Street
Journal, Washington Post, among others (his work has also been the cover story
of US News & World Report, Wired magazine, and Scientific American). <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk123903316;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">In 2007, Lanza published a feature
article, "A New Theory of the Universe" in The American Scholar, a
leading intellectual journal which has previously published works by Albert
Einstein, Margaret Mead, and Carl Sagan, among others. His theory places
biology above the other sciences in an attempt to solve one of nature's biggest
puzzles, the theory of everything that other disciplines have been pursuing for
the last century. This new view has become known as Biocentrism. In
biocentrism, space and time are forms of animal sense perception, rather than
external physical objects. Understanding this more fully yields answers to
several major puzzles of mainstream science, and offers a new way of understanding
everything from the microworld (for instance, the reason for Heisenberg's
uncertainty principle and the double-slit experiment) to the forces, constants,
and laws that shape the universe. Nobel laureate E. Donnall Thomas stated
"Any short statement does not do justice to such a scholarly work. The
work is a scholarly consideration of science and philosophy that brings biology
into the central role in unifying the whole." <o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">The Blackened Tablet Series is an epic fantasy quest story
with corrupt politics, wondrous magic, and illicit encounters in a supernatural
world where no one is safe.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Three hundred years ago, the sacred tablet granted by their
god, Jezabet, turned black, and eight kingdoms broke free, plummeting into the
bottomless sea. There was no warning, and no one knows why.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Now, a strange illness plagues Aldersward. Crowned Prince
Aedyn's sisters, Achelle and Annora, his father, and countrymen are desperate
and grief-stricken. All hope is lost...</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Until someone dreams, and Aedyn leaves behind his mistress
and his betrothed to cure their nation. He enlists his friends; a brazen
playboy, a gentle strongman, and an ancient mentor. Together, they set out on a
perilous journey-few believe they will survive.</span></p>

After an evening meal, it was typical for my family to find a group activity. Outside, by the fire, my father played his lute, while nearby, my sisters sang as they danced together. I claimed my mother for my partner, and after sending her through a series of turns, I threw her in the air. She went much higher than she should have. In the end, at least I caught her. Then both of my sisters begged for a turn. </p><div><br /></div>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Inspired by traditional Irish
Mythology, <i>Mother of the River</i> tells the story of a 17 year
old girl in search of her missing mother when she stumbles upon a forgotten
legend.</span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Ianthe was only six years old when her mother vanished and the strange statue
appeared in the river near her home. Now, eleven years later, the statue stands
as a memorial and a place where Ianthe often visits to tell her mother about
her life. But when an old acquaintance returns to town and suggests the statue
isn't just a statue, the presence of a mythical creature comes into question,
and Ianthe begins to wonder what really happened all those years ago.<br /><br /></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">With her best friend Fintan by her side, Ianthe searches for a lost legend and
discovers fantastical dangers, family secrets, and the magic of Ireland. But
finding the myth may not be enough to mend the past. And finding the truth just
may threaten her future.<br />
<br />
<i>May you have the hindsight to know where you've been, the foresight to know
where you are going, and the insight to know when you have gone too far- Irish
proverb</i></span><o:p></o:p></p>

They rushed to </span><span style="text-indent: 18pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">the patch of dirt and immediately began stabbing their shovels </span><span style="text-indent: 18pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">into the ground, removing bits of </span><span style="text-indent: 18pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">earth.

beyond the mist . . .</span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Captain Justice Kasric knows how
complicated family can be. The escalating Human-Faerie war has scattered and
wounded her siblings and transformed her parents beyond recognition. After
narrowly escaping yet another dangerous clash, fifteen-year-old Justice has had
enough. She’s determined to defeat the Black Shuck, the mysterious leader
controlling the Faerie invasion of London, but if Justice hopes to stand a
chance at victory, she’ll have to do the impossible: reunite her family and
lead them against the looming Faerie Armada.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="mso-bookmark: _Hlk119844230;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">With her mother and brother at the
helm of the enemy fleet, and the prophesized Seven Virtues slipping out of
reach, Justice more than has her work cut out for her. Even if she can save
England, the cost may be higher than she’s willing to pay.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

Klaver has been writing for over twenty years, with a number of magazine
publications, including <i>Escape Pod</i>, <i>Dark Wisdom Anthology</i>,
and <i>Anti-Matter</i>. He’s the author of The Supernatural Case Files of
Sherlock Holmes series, but has written over a dozen novels, both fantasy and
sci-fi, often with a Noir bent. He's worked as book-seller, bartender and a
martial-arts instructor before settling into a career in internet security. He
lives just outside the sprawling decay of Detroit, Michigan, with his wife,
Kimberly, his daughter, Kathryn, and a group of animals he refers to as The
Menagerie. He’s also a part of the Untitled Writer’s Group based in Ann Arbor
for the past decade or so with a bunch of equally starry-eyed dreamers and social
misanthropes.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><b><i><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">A homeless prince, a grueling mission, an unlikely hope</span></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">When unspeakable tragedy strikes Prince Jack’s family, he’s
left with one desire: vengeance. Now living in exile and serving a foreign
king, Jack perfects his talent with the sword. He’s sent to the desert for spy
and assassin training, dreaming of the day he’ll use these skills to drive a
dagger into Ingvar’s heart.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Jack plunges into his training and finds a new family of
sorts, whose morally gray members rid the city of vile criminals. But as the
desert Lord Anwar readies for battle, allegiances shatter, blood runs in the
streets, and the shadow of death looms near. During a last effort to complete
his seemingly impossible mission, Jack chances upon a slave girl with a
Northern accent and eyes so familiar that he makes a hasty vow.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">He always thought he’d defeat his nightmares by becoming one.
Could that nightmare fade into a new dream? And could that strange slave girl
be at the heart of it all?</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Excerpt:<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Lennart pulled his powerful bay warhorse up to a walk as they
approached the steep path to the castle. His horse snorted. He, too, was ready
for breakfast. His brother’s lowered brows and tight jaw relaxed as he turned
to John. “You training today?” Lennart made a good effort to brush off his
worry, but his shoulders remained tight. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Laris starts early. I might have missed it.” John hated
skipping training, but he’d wanted to catch a glimpse of Ingvar’s entourage.
He’d make it up tomorrow.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“That’s his way. What do you think of the new recruits?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“They’re working hard. Coming along, I suppose.” They were
all older than John. Most were second or third-born noblemen’s sons who weren’t
set to inherit much, so they needed to join the army as an officer or work for
the king. Though he was a prince, he had that much in common with them. “One’s
built like a tree trunk.” He couldn’t understand how the young man could have
that much muscle at his age, although sparring with him had taught John that
quickness sometimes trumped strength.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Laris said you’ve beaten every one of them. Said he’s never
seen anyone wield a blade so well at your age.” Lennart gave him an
appreciative glance. He didn’t seem to be mocking. “Keep at it and you’ll be
the greatest warrior prince Oclen has ever known.” <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Something stirred deep in John’s gut. Warrior prince. He
liked the sound of that, but the weapons master had never indulged him in such
flattery. “I suspect some of them let me win because I’m a prince.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Not what Laris says.” They passed through the first wooden
gate, reinforced with metal spikes at the top. His home loomed high on the
hill, with spires reaching to the heavens and blue flags embroidered with a
white wolf flapping in the breeze. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">John lifted his chin as he approached his home. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Come to the council meeting tomorrow,” Lennart said.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Will Father allow it?”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Lennart shrugged. “You’ll be fourteen. It’s time.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">John pulled his shoulders back. With all the preparations for
Ingvar’s arrival, he’d thought everyone had forgotten about his birthday.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">“Thank you.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">His brother’s lips hinted at a grin. “Just because you’re the
youngest doesn’t mean you’re not one of us.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>

crowns. Two kingdoms. One chance to rule.</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Nor and King
Casper are captured by the fay army and forced to face the indomitable Faerie
Queen, Marasina. At her command, Casper is thrown into a mysterious prison
while an even sinister fate is in store for Nor―a deadly fay poison that
reveals Nor’s true nature. She’s not only half-fay. She is Queen Marasina’s
heir.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Revealed to
be like the very creatures she despises, Nor must not only find a way to free
Casper but also navigate a court that is as deadly as it is beautiful. Her
allies are few, and though Pel claims to want friendship, Nor finds she cannot
forgive his betrayal. As tensions mount and war looms between the kingdoms, Nor
must choose a side, before it’s too late.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">In this epic
conclusion to the <i>Gold Spun</i> duology, Nor discovers that a
glamour and a curse may be two sides of the same coin.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

On weekdays, I try to get up an extra hour early to do a</p><p class="MsoNormal">bit of writing before work. Before the pandemic I used to spend my lunch breaks at a nearby</p><p class="MsoNormal">coffee shop getting in some additional writing. A few nights a week I might do some writing</p><p class="MsoNormal">afterwork, but I’m often too tired. I try to set aside a chunk of my weekend to write as well.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Juggling my writing life with the rest of my life has taught me that this is a marathon, not a</p><p class="MsoNormal">sprint. I don’t beat myself up if I don’t write every day. And if I’m not on a writing deadline,</p><p class="MsoNormal">then I will allow myself to take more breaks so I don’t burn out. I guess this answer is more my</p><p class="MsoNormal">writing week than my writing day, but that’s how it tends to play out.</p>

spent most of her childhood onstage or reading, as both activities let her live
in fantastic stories. She moved to Los Angeles to study acting at UCLA, and
eventually branched out into costume design and playwriting. While she spends
most of her free time writing, she will still take any excuse to play dress-up,
especially if it involves wearing a crown. She happily promotes more stories as
a marketing director for kids’ films and anime. When not writing or marketing,
she can often be found doing aerial arts, playing board games, drinking too
much espresso, and coming up with new art projects. She lives with her husband,
two spoiled rescue pups, a spoiled cat, six fish tanks, and five bookshelves.
You can find out more about her at <a href="https://www.brandiejune.com/">www.brandiejune.com

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">The gift
of magic may be a curse.</span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">After her
desert-transforming wish, Emel follows Saalim to Madinat Almulihi to reclaim
all she has lost. But the seaside city is not what she expected. When she is
tasked with assisting the palace healer, she is faced daily with the reminder
that Saalim―focused only on seeking the revenge of those who killed his
family―does not remember her at all.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">Cursing the
magic that destroyed her love and brought her to an unwelcoming city, Emel
regrets her decision to leave her settlement. That is, until she meets Kas.
Though inscrutable, he is the first person to help her forget her past, and the
pull of finding happiness with him tempts her from the life she wished for with
Saalim.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;">But darkness
waits in the desert, and not all people in Madinat Almulihi are what they seem.
When Emel understands she is entangled in the fate of the city―and of
Saalim―she is faced with the realization that magic may be the most powerful
card in her hand. It might be the only way to save all that she loves, but if
she plays her hand wrong, it could destroy everything.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p> </o:p></span></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>Top 5 favorite scenes and why.</u></b></p><p class="MsoNormal"><b><br /></b></p><p class="MsoNormal">1. <u>The journey through the desert:</u> The book opens with Emel journeying through the desert with a large caravan, Saalim at its lead. It is a whirlwind of complicated emotions: relief and regret at being far from home, and grief from both the loss of her family and her lover. The journey is painful and long, and every step she questions why she has taken it when Saalim does not remember her at all. I believe it is an honest portrayal of how someone in her shoes would feel. Despite being finally freed from her horrendous life, she is not happy. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">2. <u>The camel race:</u> This takes place about a quarter of the way through the book. Emel is invited to watch the annual camel race—a city-wide event that most in Madinat Almulihi find to be wildly entertaining. This event is not quite what Emel expects, and through the scene and its aftermath you glimpse different qualities of the main characters that make them more or less likable. Scenes that complicate emotions and how the reader feels about characters are always lots of fun to read and write.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">3. <u>Visiting Jawar’s village:</u> This part of the book (about two thirds of the way in) was also fun to write, because it offered a glimpse at the world outside of Emel’s settlement and Madinat Almulihi. I loved writing about a jungle and how that would be seen through Emel’s (and Saalim’s) eyes. There is also a nice surprise in this section that I had been planning since Daughter of the Salt King, so it was nice to put those words onto paper. </p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal">4. <u>Emel’s return home:</u> This is a little bit of a spoiler, but I could not wait to write this scene. It turned out to be both the easiest and the hardest thing to write. I had been visualizing Emel’s return since I wrote Daughter of the Salt King, because it felt like the complete arc for her. What would it be like for her to return when so much had happened in her life? It was cathartic for me, and I hope that readers feel the same sense of relief and completion when they finally get to this chapter.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal">5. <u>The final chapter:</u> Similar to Emel’s return home, the final chapter of the book was something I had been thinking of since I wrote the first book. I wanted to cement in the story but still leave enough threads open that the reader felt there was a future that would grow from the final page. I was deeply satisfied with the ending for Saalim and Emel, and I hope the reader will be, too. </p>

This is my post during the blog tour for <b>A Light in the Window by Dan Lutts</b>. In A Light in the Window a tough-minded girl flees from a politically arranged marriage while the insulted suitor chases after her, but an unexpected attack by brigands leaves her alone in a strange countryside with as seriously wounded boy.<br />
<br />

<b>By Dan Lutts</b><br />
<b>Genre:</b> Fantasy<br />
<b>Age category:</b> Young Adult<br />
<b>Release Date:</b> 21 October 2022<br />
<br />
<blockquote><b>Blurb:</b><br />
<b>FLIGHT<br />
PURSUIT<br />
CATASTROPHY</b><br />
<br />
ALYSE DEJUNE FLED Caldon to avoid becoming a pawn in her matriarch’s attempt to have the Dejunes remain a powerful First Family among their noblesse allies. She intends to seek refuge at her uncle’s legionary camp deep within the forest-covered wilderness of The Marches while he tries to patch things up between her and their matriarch. But even the best of plans can go awry, and Alyse’s does when she is captured by brigands. She believes they intend to hold her for ransom but soon learns they have a worse fate in store for her.<br />
<br />
RILL LARKIN FINALLY achieved his lifelong goal of becoming a mage even though he alienated his family and his best friend in the process. Now a mage serving the powerful Estati Family, he is part of a search party that intends to find Alyse and bring her back to Caldon—by force, if necessary. But Rill didn’t anticipate having to deal with a band of brigands who vastly outnumber his small group of pursuers or with a brigand leader who loathes the Dejunes. Those miscalculation have horrible, life-threatening consequences for Rill.</blockquote><br />

Dan Lutts, the author of <i>Charm Wars</i>, was brought up in Quincy, Massachusetts, and began addictively reading <i>Batman</i>, <i>Superman</i>, and <i>Wonder Woman</i> comic books at an early age, much to his mother's distress. In junior high school, he switched to reading science fiction novels. While in high school and college, he wrote science fiction short stories. <br />
<br />
Dan taught history and archaeology in high school for ten years. After being laid off because of budget cuts, he used his love of writing to retrain and became a software technical editor and writer. He worked for several computer companies, taught technical writing at the college level, and worked as a freelance writer.<br />
<br />
Dan loves to read and has varied tastes, including Young Adult, historical fiction, mysteries, 18th-century sea epics, and history. He especially enjoys Young Adult fiction and decided to try his hand at it. <i>Charm Wars</i>, Dan’s first novel, is the result.<br />
<br />
Dan lives in rural Maine with his wife, Lisa. When he’s not working or writing, Dan can be found reading, making and shooting medieval arrows with his longbow, or playing with his dog and two cats—all rescue animals. <br />

She parried their</div><div>blades, and the three of them danced back and forth across the floor planks, fighting. Instead of</div><div>helping their two companions, the others watched the three fight as if they were observing a</div><div>sports contest instead of a desperate life-or-death struggle. When the man stumbled away</div><div>wounded, two of the onlookers replaced him.</div><div>“That’s right,” Eye Patch said. “Wear her out. She might be young, but she won’t last</div><div>forever.”</div><div>“Tag-team match,” Pock Face said, laughing gruffly.</div><div>Eye Patch sneered at Alyse, then nodded at a brigand and said, “Time to take the golden</div><div>goose.”</div><div>The man walked toward Alyse. The smirk on his lips told her he thought Alyse was easy</div><div>prey. When he reached for her, she slipped under his arm and thrust her dagger into his side. He</div><div>stumbled away, clutching the wound.</div><div>“She stabbed me! The little bitch stabbed me!” Then his eyes rolled up in his head and he</div><div>collapsed. Blood flowed from his side, painting the floorboards red.</div><div>Alyse charged the brigands who were fighting Kate. She knifed one in the back.</div><div>With a shout, the brigands on the sidelines raced toward her.</div><div>She spun around to face them, but someone came up from behind and put his arm around</div><div>her throat. Another seized the wrist of the hand holding the knife and squeezed. Alyse struggled,</div><div>but the arm around her neck cut off her air, and the fingers pressing her wrist felt like the jaws of</div><div>a vise. Her hand opened unwillingly, and the dagger clattered onto the pine planks.</div><div><br /></div><div>Unsheathing his dagger, Eye Patch approached Alyse, grabbed and twisted a handful of</div><div>her long chestnut hair, and jerked her head back. He positioned the blade against her throat.</div><div>Alyse dared not move or breathe while her heart slammed against her chest, like a</div><div>prisoner trying to break out of jail.</div><div>“Drop your weapons, girlie,” he called to Kate. “Or I’ll slit her throat. Your matriarch</div><div>won’t like that, eh?”</div><div>Kate’s opponents stepped back out of sword range. Kate looked toward Eye Patch,</div><div>keeping her sword and dagger up.</div><div>Eye Patch drew the blade lightly across Alyse’s neck. Blood dribbled down her neck,</div><div>staining the front collar of her white linen shirt red. He leered at Kate. “Want more blood?”</div><div>He positioned his knife to make a deeper cut.</div><div>Kate threw down her sword, her face a combination of anger and disgust.</div><div>“And the dagger.”</div><div>The knife clunked onto the planks.</div><div>Two brigands seized Kate by the arms. Dagger in hand, a third walked up behind her,</div><div>grabbed a handful of her black hair, and yanked her head back to expose her neck. Then the</div><div>woman placed the blade just below Kate’s Adam’s apple and shot Eye Patch a questioning look.</div><div>Eye Patch nodded. “Kill her.”</div></div>

<b>By Dan Lutts</b><br />
<b>Genre:</b> Fantasy<br />
<b>Age category:</b> Young Adult<br />
<b>Release Date:</b> 21 October 2022<br />
<br />
<blockquote><b>Blurb:</b><br />
<b>FLIGHT<br />
PURSUIT<br />
CATASTROPHY</b><br />
<br />
ALYSE DEJUNE FLED Caldon to avoid becoming a pawn in her matriarch’s attempt to have the Dejunes remain a powerful First Family among their noblesse allies. She intends to seek refuge at her uncle’s legionary camp deep within the forest-covered wilderness of The Marches while he tries to patch things up between her and their matriarch. But even the best of plans can go awry, and Alyse’s does when she is captured by brigands. She believes they intend to hold her for ransom but soon learns they have a worse fate in store for her.<br />
<br />
RILL LARKIN FINALLY achieved his lifelong goal of becoming a mage even though he alienated his family and his best friend in the process. Now a mage serving the powerful Estati Family, he is part of a search party that intends to find Alyse and bring her back to Caldon—by force, if necessary. But Rill didn’t anticipate having to deal with a band of brigands who vastly outnumber his small group of pursuers or with a brigand leader who loathes the Dejunes. Those miscalculation have horrible, life-threatening consequences for Rill.</blockquote><br />

Dan Lutts, the author of <i>Charm Wars</i>, was brought up in Quincy, Massachusetts, and began addictively reading <i>Batman</i>, <i>Superman</i>, and <i>Wonder Woman</i> comic books at an early age, much to his mother's distress. In junior high school, he switched to reading science fiction novels. While in high school and college, he wrote science fiction short stories. <br />
<br />
Dan taught history and archaeology in high school for ten years. After being laid off because of budget cuts, he used his love of writing to retrain and became a software technical editor and writer. He worked for several computer companies, taught technical writing at the college level, and worked as a freelance writer.<br />
<br />
Dan loves to read and has varied tastes, including Young Adult, historical fiction, mysteries, 18th-century sea epics, and history. He especially enjoys Young Adult fiction and decided to try his hand at it. <i>Charm Wars</i>, Dan’s first novel, is the result.<br />
<br />
Dan lives in rural Maine with his wife, Lisa. When he’s not working or writing, Dan can be found reading, making and shooting medieval arrows with his longbow, or playing with his dog and two cats—all rescue animals. <br />

Even though she knew applying healing hands wasn’t working, she used that magic</div><div>on Rill anyway, each time praying to the One Goddess and begging that She intervene. But if the</div><div>One Goddess had heard, She was refusing Alyse’s fervent requests. Jenna and Dorn expressed</div><div>their concern every time Alyse came out of his bedroom. Sometimes after she answered, Alyse</div><div>caught them exchanging that same silent message.</div><div>This morning, despair settled heavily in her chest as she left Rill’s bedroom. After closing</div><div>the door, she leaned against it, buried her face in her hands, and sobbed. Dorn had just come in</div><div>from the field to fetch something, Jenna was spinning wool, and Serin was carding wool to</div><div>separate the fibers so Jenna could spin them. Jenna motioned for Serin to leave, then crossed the</div><div>rough-hewn floorboards with Dorn to where Alyse was weeping.</div><div>Jenna put an arm around Alyse’s shoulder. “He’s gettin’ worse?”</div><div>Alyse looked at their blurry faces, and her throat thickened. “He’s dying, and there’s</div><div>nothing I can do except watch him die.” She drew in a huge, ragged lungful of air. “It’s only a</div><div>matter of days before . . .” She slumped against Jenna. “If only Priestess Sybil were here. Or</div><div>Kendra. They’d know what to do. But me . . . I don’t. All I can do is watch him die.”</div><div>Sobs racked her body.</div><div>Gently, Jenna wiped tears from Alyse’s cheek. “He means a great deal to you, don’t he?”</div><div>“We’ve been through a lot together.”</div><div>“Do ya love him?”</div><div>Alyse pulled back, and her tear-drenched eyes popped open in surprise. “Love him? No.</div><div>But there’s a . . . a connection between us. Between me, him, and his family. I think maybe the</div><div>Five Sisters wove all of our tapestries together for some reason. But whatever that reason is, the</div><div><br /></div><div>Sisters don’t care about it anymore.”</div><div>Dorn frowned at his wife. “I think it’s time.”</div><div>Jenna nodded.</div><div>Alyse sniffed and wiped snot from her nose. “Time for what?”</div><div>Dorn motioned to Jenna. “You tell her.”</div><div>Maybe it’s time we visited Twalla,” Jenna said.</div><div>“Who’s that?” Alyse asked.</div><div>Jenna hesitated, then glanced at Dorn who motioned for her to continue. “A strenga.”</div><div>Alyse’s stomach lurched violently in horror as she stepped back and bumped against the</div><div>latch on the bedroom door but was oblivious to the metal digging into her spine. “A strenga!”</div>

<b>By Catherine Forster</b><br />
<b>Genre:</b> Non-fiction Memoir<br />
<b>Release Date:</b> 26 July 2022<br />
<br />
<blockquote><b>Blurb:</b><br />
In the 1960s, a relentless school bully makes Catherine’s life a living hell. She retreats inward, relying on a rich fantasy life––swinging through the jungle wrapped in Tarzan’s protective arms––and fervent prayers to a God she does not trust. She fasts until she feels faint, she ties a rough rope around her waist as penance, hoping God will see her worthy of His help. <br />
<br />
As the second of eight children, Catherine is Mommy’s little helper, and like Mommy, Catherine is overwhelmed. The bullying and the adult responsibilities together foment her anger. She starts smacking her siblings, and becomes her younger sister’s nemesis. Spooked by who she is becoming, Catherine vows to escape for real, before she hurts someone—or herself. <br />
<br />
Catherine finds salvation in a high school exchange program: new town, new school, new family, new persona. A passport celebrity. In New Zealand, nobody knows her history or her fears. Except for her Kiwi “mum,” who sees through Catherine’s façade and pulls her out from her inner safe-house. <br />
<br />
Exposed, her sense of self implodes. Catherine must finally rethink who she is.</blockquote><br />
