A Life No Less Than Perfect

By Angela K Parker

Blurb:

The lone survivor of a tragic car accident, Elona has since been a recluse, with the exception of her parents.  Though her memory is fogged, she is finally in a place where she can begin to piece together her life again.  She felt that moving miles away from home would help her do that.  She thought she was prepared for anything...until she met him.

Michael is a young man with a rough past, a past that’s left him pained and broken.  He shoulders the guilt of his former circumstances.  He’s accepted that he will never find someone deserving.  Then he lays eyes on her and his whole life suddenly changes.

Will Elona be able to love, after she’s lost so much?

Can Michael move past the pain enshrouding him?

To get through tragedy they must feel the pain, but getting through the pain will be tragic.

Snippet #1:

I place my hands flat on the table.  I lean forward and look into her eyes so she can feel the effects of what I’m about to say.  “I assure you El, I am not going anywhere unless you are by my side.” I stress the next couple words.  “I have never been as intrigued by anyone as I am by you.”  I ease back into the booth.  “So, I’ll ask you the same question.  Are you planning on sticking around?”

Snippet #2:

Growing up everyone has a dream and expectations.  Most know what they want to be, what they want to have and what type of person they want to be with.  Once upon a time, I thought I knew those things too.  Turns out, what we think we want and our reality are two totally different things.  What we expect and what actually happens are rarely ever the same thing.  So here goes...this is my story, or at least what I can remember…..

Snippet #3:

“I love the way you say my name El.  I hope I’m not being too forward, but I have to tell you that you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.  Since the first moment I laid eyes on you, I could hardly think of anything else.  I tried to grill Jess about you last night, but she wasn’t giving anything away.  She told me to ask you myself.”  He laughed.  His laugh, it was like a summer breeze.  I instantly knew that I would want to hear more of it and I would do whatever it took to get it out of him.  I wanted to be the one to make him laugh.  We start to walk.  “So here we are.  I’ll start with an easy question.  Where are you from El?”

The Hitman Who Loved Me by Shady Grace Book Tour and Giveaway!

THE HITMAN WHO LOVED ME

by Shady Grace

Genre: Romantic Suspense

Pub Date: 6/20/17

Is that a gun in his pocket or…?

Jamie Fields can hardly refuse a free vacation. Jobless and broke, the struggling single gal is in need of serious stress relief. Sure, the set up is suspicious—no one gives away a trip to exotic Cuba—complete with 50,000 dollars cash—just for delivering a package. But once Jamie’s enjoying sunny beach days and exhilarating tropical nights, she’s too happy to care. Especially when she finds herself hotly pursued by a sexy stranger…

The McCoy empire is under siege, and Sam Hayes has been tapped to take care of the culprit. Sam knows better than to get involved with his target, but there’s something about Jamie that keeps him from simply finishing the job and moving on. Maybe the hard-bodied hitman just can’t wrap his mind around the fact that the first woman to set his soul on fire is a common criminal. The only thing Sam can do is keep her close. An easy enough task—if Sam doesn’t do something stupid. Like fall in love with the bombshell he was sent to kill….

When tracking devices confirm Nora has a stalker, it sets off a chain of events that connect to Declan's murder investigation of a young Oxford art restorer, and will bring bioterrorism and a psychopath into their lives, while Sean's hangs in the balance.

The House of Bloodstein: Mentralysis by Ren Garcia Book Tour and Giveaway!

They thought the episode with their cousin to the east, Lady Bloodstein, was over. They thought it was something to laugh about at the grand table in fond nostalgia.

But they were wrong. They were so wrong.
And Castle Blanchefort has fallen!

Lord Kabyl has lost everything: his wife, his kin, his family fortune, and his home. Castle Blanchefort, once a safe haven, is overrun with enemies seeking his blood.

In what follows, he must join forces with ancient enemies and with people who do not exist. He must treat with sinister, possibly untrustworthy gods and barter away his soul for urgently needed arcane help or face certain death at the hands of forgotten tyrants and their machinations from a bygone age.

And, how can a strange science known as Mentralysis, practiced in secret in the hidden places of the League, hold the key to ultimate victory?

What should have been obvious to Lord Kabyl from the start at last becomes crystal clear: Foolish is he who dares possess the Ultimate Object, for misery shall be his only reward.

Character Casting

 LORD KABYL OF BLANCHEFORT:

‘Kay’ is the eldest son of Lord Davage and Countess Sygillis of Blanchefort. Green-eyed, purple-haired, he is considered handsome like his father and beautiful like his mother. He is the next in line as lord of the House, and the de facto leader of ‘The Gang’ with his cousins Sarah and Phillip. Like his father, Kay has the Gift of Sight. His status as a ‘Shadow tech Male’ has altered his Sight, changing it to the ‘Dark Sight’, allowing him to see and interact with objects great distances away and into the past and future.

Not overly strong, Kay was never able to lift his father’s seventy-seven pound King CARG. He therefore forged a smaller CARG infused with Silver tech power that he named SAMMIDORAN, after his love. After a horrendous set of tribulations in the Temple of the Exploding Head, Kay recently married ‘Sam’ in a grand Vith ceremony. They are eager to bear children. Once Sam finishes her traditional Monama Jar, they will begin.

Snippets:

Snippet 1:  "I created you, and therefore I cannot stand you ..."   Queen Ghome to Lord Kabyl of Blanchefort.

Snippet 2:  Tellerran slapped her sides. "Ya? Ya .... you looks like ah Monama to me, girly. Ya seem ta wants ta be a Vith, but you ain’t no Vith, is ya? Yer a Monama, jus’ like me, an’ this is wha’ Monamas do. Square up with it!"  --Lady Tellerran to Lady Sammidoran of Blancherfort.

Snippet 3: 

The mouth became quizzical and then gave a wry, wicked smile. "My help? I see ... And what can I do to help you?"

"I need a favor."

"A favor?" it cried with a sour note. "Not in four hundred years have I granted a favor to an Invernan, or anyone else for that matter. I do believe I admire your idiocy and raw nerve. Go on, ask your favor."

"I need Shadow tech."

"Shadow tech? Is that all?"   --Wilhella Cormand-Grande to Lord Kabyl of Blanchefort.

Snippet 4: 

Moments later the robot was there, gleaming, sliding on its rail, blades turning. Flying as fast as she could, Thomasina soared down the hallway with Phillip in her arms. The robot came after them and was quickly gaining. Panels opened, more arms came out and more deadly blades whirled.

Casually, Clara, forgotten and unnoticed by the robot, came striding out of the chamber moments later. She held the cage containing King over her head.

"Betrayed!" King said from his cage. "You have been betrayed!"

Clara was jubilant. "You’re all mine now, baby doll," she said to King. "Sorry, suckers! Looks like I’m not heading back to the crappy cell in your crappy village, am I, you bunch of Rumble-Pumps! Have fun with the Vith Stickin’ robot!" She turned and fled in the opposite direction.    --Clara Wunderluck to Phillip and Lady Thomasina of Blanchefort. 

Snippet 5:  

"You are in the service of a tyrant and a thief and a liar, and you may count me as your mortal enemy. Let’s be clear on that point," Kay said with fury.

"Acknowledged, and that is a great shame as I am not a bad person, and I am certain you are not one either. Fate, it seems, has pitted us against each other."

"Fate had nothing to do with it, sir. When your master chose to come at my wife, assault her, steal her goods, discard her for dead and invade my home ... that is when we became enemies!"

Tal de Roga raised his hands and let them fall. "I understand how you feel, truly I do. What can I say? Guilty as charged."   Lord Kabyl of Blanchefort to Tal de Roga.
