The Book of Malachiby T.C. Farren

In this frightening, high-concept science fiction thriller, a mute survivor of civil war must confront the horrors of organ farming on a deep-sea oilrig.

Malachi Dakwaa is a mute survivor of African civil war. He has seen his loved ones slaughtered and had his tongue cut out. Disengaged from the world, he’s performing mind-numbing work in a chicken factory, when he gets an extraordinary job offer he can’t refuse.

In exchange for six months as warden on a top-secret organ-farming project, Frasier Pharmaceuticals will graft him a new tongue.

Far out to sea, he finds himself among warlords and mass murderers of the kind who maimed him and murdered his family. 

But are the prisoners as evil as Frasier says? Do they deserve their fate? 

As doubt starts to grow, the stories of the desperate will not be silenced – not even his own. Covertly Malachi comes to know them, even the ones he fears, and as his own memories gain force, he must make a choice – if he wants to try to save one, he must save them all. And risk everything himself.   

Forever Friend Zonedby C. Morgan

Once the fat kid, but now a personal trainer.

I took all of that crap from the past and turned it into a goldmine.

My body, namely.

And there’s one girl I want that rejected me over and over.

Lucky for me, the beauty is on the heels of a terrible breakup.

Yes. I mean, aww…

Her parents are pushing her to go to the gym to lose some weight. Boy, do I know how that feels. And guess who’s waiting for her when she gets there?

That’s right. Me. The forever friend-zoned guy.

But I have no ill will toward my curvy first love.

I only want what’s best for her. Namely, me. *wink*

So the game begins, and I’m lucky to be in the coach’s shoes this time.

She has no clue who I am, but sparks fly high.

No way in hell I’m telling her I’m the guy she remembered rejecting.

‘Cause I’m not out for revenge. I just want what I’ve always wanted…

Her.

Rise of the Morrigan: The Queen of Samhuinn: An Epic in Fantasy Mythologyby Theophilus Monroe

Not even the god who made her could tame her.

When the Dagda took three girls and combined them into a single goddess–that he might have for himself a divine wife–he thought she’d be an obedient sub-deity and an extension of his rule. But the Morrigan is subservient to no man, no matter how powerful a god he fashions himself to be. 

If she is to rule, however, she must do more than defy the god who made her.

She must win the heart of a mortal… 

Cú Chulainn didn’t want to be a warrior.

He dreamed of becoming a bard, a poet… 

But when he discovers he has the ríastrad, that he transforms into a werewolf when enraged, he finds he has little choice but to serve the whims of his king and defend Ulster. 

But can the beast be controlled? 

A faerie touched his heart… it calmed his rage… and he longs for her still…

But there’s another who pursues him, who hopes to win his heart… a goddess…

Will the Morrigan win the heart of her beloved? Will Cú Chulainn find peace, or will he be destined to a life of battle? 

Debussy’s Slippersby Steve Exeter

George Gershwin thinks he could do better, better than Broadway.

Ira Gershwin disagrees, why get funny ideas about writing po-faced Piano Concertos that no one hears, when you’re already getting much respect and much money (and much female attention) from writing hit shows? But what George wants George gets, and soon the brothers are travelling to Europe to meet French maestro Maurice Ravel – you know, a real composer.

Despite dreading this American invasion on his artistic privacy, the haughty Ravel warms to George, the two men share musical ideas and beaucoup du vin. It all turns sour when George returns to New York, unintentionally carrying in his luggage Ravel’s most treasured possession: a pair of slippers that belonged to Ravel’s musical forefather, the French national hero – Claude Debussy.

Now, Debussy’s slippers may reek, they may look slightly ridiculous, but their inspirational power is undeniable. Once George feels their effect, he’s loath to return them, and sets about stalling an increasingly irate Ravel. Things come to a head when Ravel unexpectedly returns Gershwin’s visit.

Right Under My Nose #1by Ali Parker

My life couldn’t get any more ridiculous.

A few days ago, my son’s teacher wanted to berate me on my parenting style.

I politely told her to back off, in so many words.

And now? She’s sitting across the table from me at my first blind date in years.

You can’t make this stuff up.

Nothing has been easy since my wife left me and Hunter years ago. And yet, we persevered.

He’s my whole world, and the last thing I have time for is a woman.

But this beautiful teacher disagrees. She wants to help me find the right girl for me and my boy. My best friend agrees. It’s time.

To shut everyone up, I go along with it. How bad can this get?

Don’t ask.

The right woman has been under my nose the whole time. And without realizing it, I’ve fallen deeply in love with her.

I can only hope she’ll stop her silly search and accept my offer.

Be mine.

Forever.

This is book 1 of a trilogy. There is a cliffhanger at the end. You will have to buy book 2 and 3 to finish the story.
