Something Like Hail by Jay Bell

Sometimes it’s up to us to make our own luck—and to give ourselves a second chance.

Noah Westwood is tired of living on the streets, so he turns to Marcello Maltese, a man who owns a small empire that includes an escort service. Noah volunteers for this, but he’s playing a dangerous game. A secret from his past could turn his new friends into enemies, and he isn’t sure he can perform the duties he signed up for, especially when he’s more interested in falling in love than hopping into the beds of clients. His situation is complicated further when hunky co-worker, Harold Franklin, seems to be interested in him. Noah is off the streets, but he’ll have to travel down many more roads on his quest to find his happily-ever-after.

Be Cool: A Novel by Elmore Leonard

Get Shorty’s Chili Palmer is back in Be Cool, a classic novel of suspense from New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard. But this time it’s no more Mr. Nice Guy.

After a smash hit and a flop, B-movie-producer Chili Palmer is looking for another score. Lunching with a record company executive, Chili’s exploring a hot new idea—until the exec, a former “associate” from Chili’s Brooklyn days, gets whacked.

Segue from real life to reel life. Chili’s found his plot. It’s a slam-bang opener: the rubout of a record company mogul. Cut to an ambitious wannabe singer named Linda Moon. She has attitude and a band. She’s perfect. Zoom in to reality. Linda’s manager thinks Chili’s poaching and he’s out to get even, with the help of his switch-hitting Samoan bodyguard.

But somebody else beat them to the punch, as Chili discovers when he gets home and finds a corpse at his desk. Somebody made a mistake…

The Twisted Road Ahead: An Anthology of Short Stories by John D. Ottini

Our journey through life rarely follows a straight and narrow path. The road is filled with unexpected twists and turns and sometimes things are not as they seem. In The Twisted Road Ahead, John D. Ottini leads us on an excursion through eight suspenseful tales, each filled with joy, heartache, mystery, intrigue and a pinch of humor.

In “Tormented Heart” Austin Drummond discovers that fulfilling his departed wife’s final request is more than he ever bargained for.

When tragedy strikes, Blake Thomas is left with a broken heart and a guilty conscience. Rather than searching within his heart for the forgiveness he needs, he decides that sometimes it’s easier to just “Blame it on the Weather.”

In “One Shot to the Head,”* Brie’s longtime boyfriend takes her for a romantic dinner on Valentine’s Day, so she naturally assumes that he will at long last propose to her. What she doesn’t expect is an evening that ends in humiliation.

Diana is having a difficult time coming to grips with the loss of her only child. If that isn’t enough of a burden, “Disturbing Conversations” are leading her to believe she’s losing her mind.

In “Words to a Kill,”* Lucy’s erratic post-accident behavior troubles her husband Sonny. When his brother Marco makes an unorthodox suggestion to help Lucy, can Sonny stand by and handle the alarming result?

“A Toast to My Sorry Life” finds Lena Dancer coming to the sad realization that her life is nothing like she thought it would be. Sometimes when dreams vanish into thin air, the only thing that remains is a desire for cold, hard revenge.

Also includes: “Forgiveness” and “The Beckoning Sunrise”
