The Diabolicby S. J. Kincaid

“The perfect kind of high-pressure adventure.” —TeenVogue.com
A New York Times bestseller!

Red Queen meets The Hunger Games in this epic novel about what happens when a senator’s daughter is summoned to the galactic court as a hostage, but she’s really the galaxy’s most dangerous weapon in disguise.

A Diabolic is ruthless. A Diabolic is powerful. A Diabolic has a single task: Kill in order to protect the person you’ve been created for.

Nemesis is a Diabolic, a humanoid teenager created to protect a galactic senator’s daughter, Sidonia. The two have grown up side by side, but are in no way sisters. Nemesis is expected to give her life for Sidonia, and she would do so gladly. She would also take as many lives as necessary to keep Sidonia safe.

When the power-mad Emperor learns Sidonia’s father is participating in a rebellion, he summons Sidonia to the Galactic court. She is to serve as a hostage. Now, there is only one way for Nemesis to protect Sidonia. She must become her. Nemesis travels to the court disguised as Sidonia—a killing machine masquerading in a world of corrupt politicians and two-faced senators’ children. It’s a nest of vipers with threats on every side, but Nemesis must keep her true abilities a secret or risk everything.

As the Empire begins to fracture and rebellion looms closer, Nemesis learns there is something more to her than just deadly force. She finds a humanity truer than what she encounters from most humans. Amidst all the danger, action, and intrigue, her humanity just might be the thing that saves her life—and the empire.

“A glorious, detailed world and an epic story! “Faster Than Falling” is up there with the grandest of adventures, set in a strange new land. I was reminded strongly of Robin Hobbs’ wonderful tales (in voice, not content). Van Coops beckons the reader through the door, then drags you into a fantastic ride, replete with eccentric tech; alien naturescapes … and good old-fashioned piracy. Storytelling at its finest!”– Robert Scanlon, Author of Constellation.

Carrots: A Shelby Nichols Adventureby Colleen Helme

“One of the best and rarest gems of the indie book market.” ~ Matthew LeDrew

Shelby Nichols is an average woman whose life is organized and predictable. But the day she stops at the grocery store for some carrots, everything changes. As the cashier scans her purchases, a gunman is busy robbing the store. When shots ring out, Shelby finds herself face to face with the killer. The next thing she knows, she’s lying on the floor with a bullet wound to her head. Luckily, the bullet only grazes her scalp, and she doesn’t suspect any lasting effects until later, when she suddenly ‘hears’ what people are thinking. With this uncanny ability, her life takes on a whole new dimension. Her kids think she’s bossy and too old to understand them, but that’s nothing compared to her husband. He says he loves her, but what is it about the redhead at work that he doesn’t want her to know? As if that isn’t enough, the gunman knows she can identify him, and he’s out to silence her forever. In her fight to stay alive, she is saved from certain death by a handsome hit-man with ties to organized crime. This pulls Shelby even deeper into danger, where knowing someone’s thoughts can not only hurt her feelings, but get her killed.

Proof the Novelby Ted D. Berner

Proof the Novel is an epic adventure that may unravel one of the greatest mysteries of all time.

Did giants actually once roam the earth? College graduate student Ty Larson’s life gets turned upside down when he becomes caught up in an age-old conspiracy after stumbling onto a lost civilization only briefly mentioned in the Bible. As he uncovers mounting evidence tying these ancient inhabitants to the colossal stone structures scattered across the planet, others with more sinister goals begin to emerge whose aspirations remain a mystery. From the timeworn ruins in the high mountains of Bolivia and Peru to the massive megaliths in Baalbek, Lebanon to the Great Pyramid itself, Ty unknowingly inches ever closer to unearthing the disturbing truth of the history of mankind.

Although this novel is fiction, it’s based on factual events, Biblical scripture, texts found in the Dead Sea scrolls omitted from the Bible, and many other legends from around the world that millions believe to be true.

Genesis 6:4
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

I can’t wait to read the next story in this book and will add Ms. Silk to my “must-buy” authors. Love her writing! Ms. Silk fills the pages with emotion – hope, happiness, sadness, guilt, joy – you will run the gamut with this book.” Elizabeth Lennox, Author of the Thorpe Brothers series

Reviews:
“Gloria Silk is an amazing author that has provided a well-written and beautiful interracial romance.” Annalei Chuchu

“… It’s wonderfully written to tell a lovely story filled with lots of emotions and authentic characters. The author did a fantastic job! … It’s one of those must-have books that you’ve got to get in your collection!!! ” J Summer

“Second Destiny is at its heart a romance, but it is so much more than that. The cultural differences that many of us take for granted are right at the forefront of this story. Both families have problems with their loved one marrying someone from another culture and at times it borders on full-on racism, which makes it easier to root for Danielle and Sanjay and even Lia and Devraj. Gloria Silk has written a wonderful tale about cultural differences, the need for love and freedom after a life of doing and being what is expected of you. This is no cut and dried romance story; it is much more than that because the feelings that still exist may not be enough to give Lia and Devraj their happily ever after.

STARRED REVIEW: “Gloria Silk has written a wonderful tale about cultural differences, the need for love and freedom after a life of doing and being what is expected of you. This is no cut and dried romance story; it is much more than that…” Natasha Jackson
