Oliver Booth and the Evil Socialite : Free Kindle and Nook Book

Editor's Note: David Sedaris fan? Well, here's a book that is right up your alley. Full of witty satire, it will have you laughing at the absurdity of high society! 

This book is wicked funny. The perfect book to read when flying from New York to Palm Beach!

Book Description: In OLIVER BOOTH AND THE EVIL SOCIALITE, Oliver Booth, the man readers love to hate, is back! In this hilarious sequel to the award-winning novel The Misadventures of Oliver Booth: Life in the Lap of Luxury, Oliver’s quest for fame and fortune leads him into the world of high-end real estate, where he becomes embroiled in a battle with a socialite who is not all that she appears to be. It’s a fast and funny satire you won’t want to miss.

Fans of Evelyn Waugh, David Sedaris, and John Kennedy Toole will love OLIVER BOOTH AND THE EVIL SOCIALITE. 

Author's Inspiration: I live in Palm Beach and I'm exposed to people with too much money and too much free time on a regular basis. I write my novels and my newspaper column in the Palm Beach Daily News to have a bit of fun with those people, but also to keep a bit of distance from their world, and I know I'm never going to run out of material!

Actor Who Would Play the Main Character: Nathan Lane

From the Book: Oliver Booth was not a professional parking valet, certainly not at his age. He also dabbled in the sale of antiques, although lately his role in that field had been limited to that of a deliveryman. Some months previously, he had attempted to defraud a certain Margaret Van Buren, the wealthy doyenne of Palm Beach society. Because of his status as the manager of an antique shop in town, Mrs. Van Buren had sent Oliver to Paris along with Bernard Dauphin, a young Frenchman who worked as a waiter at the Morningwood Club, to shop for furniture for her guest house at the Marché aux Puces. With Bernard's help, Mrs. Van Buren had uncovered Oliver's scheme to inflate the prices of the goods that had been purchased and thus his presumed commission and she had threatened to turn him in to the police unless he made reparations. Much to Oliver's chagrin, he had been required to cede control of the antique shop to Mrs. Van Buren and pay back all of the costs of his ill-fated trip.

Deadly Offerings : Free Book for Kindle, Nook and Apple

Editor's Note: We've found an intriguing read with the perfect blend of rousing romance and heart-stopping suspense. The story and characters will captivate you. Grab it today and we think that you will agree!  

This book caught my interest on the first page and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout.

Book Description: In DEADLY OFFERINGS, Anne Mason thought she safe on her mid-western wind farm, until dead bodies show up all over her fields. These "gifts" are from a disturbed cold-blooded serial killer that is patiently waiting and watching her every move. He shows no signs of stopping until she's dead. 

Anne seeks protection, but only finds mistrust when the new county prosecutor is her ex-husband's attorney. Will she be able to trust him with her life, but moverove can she trust him with her heart? 

Fans of Catherine Mann, Alison Brennan or James Patterson will enjoy DEADLY OFFERINGS. 

Author's Inspiration: I wanted to write a book featuring a strong female lead in unusual, dangerous circumstances, who unexpectedly finds love at the same time she discovers she is targeted by a serial killer.

Actor Who Would Play the Main Character: Michael Brandt would be played by Colin Egglesfield, and Anne Mason would be played by Natalie Portman.

From the Book: Anne looked in the rearview mirror and gasped; a sliver of panic cut through her. A man in a black ski mask was slammed against her seat, thrusting a gun in her face.

She punched the accelerator, pitching gravel and dust in the parking lot. She screeched onto the road, nearly sideswiping a pickup truck. Fear crushed Anne's lungs and she could barely breathe.

“Turn right at the stop, Anne,” he growled.

Christ, how did he know her name? She turned at the stop, her mind racing to remember what she had learned at her self-defense class. Stay calm. Stay calm and in control. Yeah, well that was a bit hard when there was a gun pressed to your cheek.

Calm down. Anne took a deep breath and tried to focus. She would not be this thug’s victim. She would not.

The Billionaire Wins the Game : Free Kindle, Nook and Apple eBook

Editor's Note: Sometimes love takes the long way, but it finds it way there. This contemporary romance is sure to find the fast way to your heart. 

Once I started reading it I could not put it down.

Book Description: Lucas Anderson is used to getting his way and has very commanding spirit which is why he's at the top of the food chain as president of his recently retired father's business empire. He is a man in complete control of his life until he meets his new executive secretary Amy Harper. Now the once in very control man is suddenly feeling very out of control by his new feelings for his assistant and he does not like it at all. He's had his share of gold diggers and when Amy gets pregnant from their night of passion he tries to assume that she one too.

When he finally stops fighting his head and listens to his heart he finds out that what he knew all along, that Amy was not looking for gold, she was looking for his heart.

Readers who love Ruth Cardello and Julianne MacLean will enjoy THE BILLIONAIRE WINS THE GAME. 

Author's Inspiration: Inspiration came from a real family that I knew when I was a kid. I had this amazing youth leader when I was a young teen and I thought the moon rose and fell on her, and this was how I pictured her life. She's still an amazing person, but she lived in this beautiful mansion and was the nicest person I know. That's how this series came about.

Actor Who Would Play the Main Character: Sean Connery

From the Book: His gaze turned immediately to the woman in question, the one who’d seared him with nothing more than the touch of her fingers. There was no possible way she could work for him – not even a chance.

Melody Anne

  

The only thing I love more than writing is my family! I adore my kids and my nieces and nephews. I'd do anything in the world for them. I think to have success without having friends and family would be a lonely life. I get to have this dream career and have wonderful people around me. It doesn't get much better than this. I also happen to have the most supportive fans ever. I smile each time I check facebook, and love how much they have embraced my characters, even those characters that need smacked in the head with a cast iron cooking pan. There is no better career out there than being an author. I have to pinch myself every once in a while just so I know its not all a dream.

Favorite Food: Hard one, probably mexican food. I love it!! Second close is cheesy doritos

Favorite place to write: My office. It's a mess and I love it.

Favorite TV Show: At the moment it's Vampire Diaries, but I love Supernatural, Greys anatomy, and more. I just don't get to watch too many right now.

Favorite Music: Oh, that's a hard one. I love country, could listen night and day. I'm in love with several artists, Tim McGraw, Carrie Underwood, Brad Paisley, the list goes on and on. I do like fun pop music too. I have a writing playlist and a lot of the Pussycat doll songs are on there. Those women kick butt. I love Christina Aguilera, too, and an alltime favorite of Kelly Clarkson. I love the American Idol winners, because I know how they feel. I feel the same way everytime someone buys my books.

Myriad - Free eBook for Kindle, Apple and Nook

Editor's Note: Revenge, love, and magic combine in this fantasy novella where a warlock must become a hero. You will be itching for more when you are done! 

A fast-paced novella with a surprising twist!

Book Description: After the tragic loss of his wife and child, Myriad Markwin began tormenting the Royal family of Prentor. For eighteen years, he'd mercilessly killed people in the castle on the Princess' birthday. But this year, he wasn't settling for servants or guards. He was going to kill the Royal family themselves. A group of warlocks and witches was out to stop him, but a young newcomer to them, Kalin, was proving the most trouble...

Kalin has denied his magic for years, but suddenly finds himself in a battle with one of the most powerful warlocks that has ever lived. He has to face up to things about himself he never knew, to try and save the Royal family from murder. With his new friends helping him, and a new love enchanting him, can he stop the coming bloodshed? Will he survive the fight of his life?

Author's Inspiration: This book was inspired by all the classic fantasy books and movies I devoured as a child. I loved Disney movies and any tale steeped in tradition. I tried to write a book which is reminiscent of those traditional themes, while still being fast paced and exciting.

From the Book: Three things happened very quickly. Myriad realized there was no medicine for her. None, even at his last resort. He realized his wife and child would die. And he knew, whether it be in days, weeks, months or years, that he would return to who he was before. That man. That terrible, cruel, obsessive man, who his father had trained himto be. And then he realized one final thing. He was the last one. He would have no family left. He was the last one.

The Drayton Chronicles : Free Kindle Book

Editor's Note: Evolution happens over a long period of time. Here's a collection of stories that document the evolution of a vampire. Thank goodness it won't take as long to read. 

I could keep reading tales of Drayton if there were more to be had.

Book Description: Drayton once believed he was a vampire. He doesn’t know what he is. Or why he has lived for thousands of years. He takes not his victim’s blood but the silky essence of their soul during their last breath. Often mistaken for the Angel of Death, his victims sometimes ask for forgiveness. Sometimes he delivers. After all, he is not without sin. See how he came to be who he is today in THE DRAYTON CHRONICLES. 

Author's Inspiration: Drayton started out a single novella after I'd gone to a theatrical presentation of Dracula. It seemed to me that if a vampire did exist, would it evolve like a human, moving from animal instincts to compassionate awareness when given thousands of years of immortality and unmatched power. And, if so, what would he look like?

Actor Who Would Play the Main Character: Djimon Hounsou

From the Book: An angel. Of course, he was the Angel of Death. Blake hadn’t thought it would be so literal, an actual boy coming for him, but then again this was his first time dying. Somehow he pictured Death wearing a black cloak riding a fire-spitting black horse. Big fangs. The stink of death preceding him like a rotting corpse. Turned out Death was a boy with a respectful disposition. Who would’ve guessed?

Not Today, But Someday : Free Book For Kindle, Nook and Apple

Editor's Note: Relive your first love in this amazing prequel to the Emi Lost and Found series. It will suck you into the story and have you fall in love with these characters. 

These characters are so real, and the story so sweet and intimate and absolutely honest, I was completely drawn in.

Book Description: Broken-hearted Nate is a loner in high school. New girl Emi is mad at the world after discovering her father's infidelity. These two fast friends have what it takes for a remarkable romance, but a romance isn't what either needs – yet. This is the prequel to the Emi Lost and Found series. 

Readers who love Twilight and Reckless will enjoy NOT TODAY, BUT SOMEDAY. 

Author's Inspiration: A bad review actually inspired me to write this. I'd written the Emi Lost & Found series, and someone gave me a low rating because she expected more of a backstory between Emi and Nate. I was motivated to give her that!

Actor Who Would Play the Main Character: Robert Pattinson and Emma Stone

From the Book: If I believed in fate and happily ever after and– hell, even love– I might be excited about this. He’s just my type... except for that whole arrogance thing. How does someone like that get to be so cocky, anyway? Sure, he’s cute, but he’s not all that. He’s too skinny to be all that. But his hair is cool... dark brown with reddish highlights. I don’t think that’s his real hair color, though. Hovering over his eyes are brows that were much lighter. The fuzz on his chin is almost blonde, too. And he has nice skin. And that smile. My stomach feels queasy, remembering his smile as I left the art room.

Deadlocked : Free eBook for Kindle, Nook, Kobo, and Apple

Editor's Note: It's a story about a father's journey to get home- except, it's the zombie apocalypse. We love zombie books, and this is another fantastic addition to the shelf.

A very fast paced & well written storyline with lots of action from beginning to end!

Book Description: The zombie outbreak has begun. David's family is stuck on their roof while the undead hordes wait below- and David finds himself in the middle of the city. Can he fight through everything standing between them and make it home? Will he even be able to save his family- and at what cost?

Readers who like World War Z, Zombie Survival Guide or Zombie Apocalypse will like DEADLOCKED.

Author's Inspiration:  My mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, and she knew my dream was always to be a writer. I started writing Deadlocked as a cathartic exercise to deal with my mother's illness as well as attempt to fulfill my promise to her that I would one day be an author.

Actor who would play the Main Character: Joseph Gordon-Levitt

From the Book: Barry fell to the pavement as I stood above. I watched the crowd of cannibals flood over him. They fell to their knees and ripped at his flesh. They pulled his arms up and bit into them. He cried out to me for help as they ate him, but there was nothing I could do. His cries became a gurgle as he choked on his own blood.
I watched my best friend get eaten alive.
