Have you ever stepped outside your comfort zone and tried something difficult? I did when I ran my first 5K. It wasn't simply a 5K but an obstacle course. By the end of the race, I was muddy and tired but so exhilarated. I loved that I did it and it started my obsession during the pandemic to run more.
The heroine in Grea Warner's newest release, HEADS CAROLINA, is a gutsy young lady. She takes a chance in a songwriter competition much like we see on TV. That's something I wouldn't be able to do but I admire her guts. This talent show leads Bethany down a road she never saw coming and one you, as a reader will enjoy!

Blurb:
How did a sheltered girl from Carolina end up in a national scandal involving one of Hollywood’s most powerful music couples?
When want-a-be singer Bethany Opala tries out for a TV talent show, she is rejected. But then comes an amazing offer … a songwriter’s dream. Bethany has the opportunity to learn and develop her skills with top music manager, Ryan Thompson.
With a mutual passion for music and words, Bethany and Ryan’s writing partnership develops into something more … something love songs are written about. And while it isn’t wrong, it isn’t right, at least in the public eye.
Surrounded by secrecy and half-truths, Bethany doesn’t know how much she should put up with. Especially, when one more rejection could scar her for good. Will her decision to leave not only Ryan, but the music business and California, come down to the toss of a coin?
EXCERPT:
The text from Ryan came in almost immediately after. U OK?
No reference needed. He knew I would be watching the show. He also had to know the answer to his question. Was he crazy? No, absolutely not. I was not okay.
But I didn’t type that back. I didn’t text anything at all. I was lucky I could read and comprehend his text. The world around me was in a black, closed-in cloud called fury.
Trust me … I had no idea she was going to do that. That second message came through a couple minutes later, and I watched via the television set as he put down his phone.
And then he had to be present and focused on the poor contestants as they fretted about their fate. I walked away. I didn’t need to be witness to more disappointment.
I knew the show had ended. The kids, remembering what I had told them, found me in the kitchen, putting a later-than-usual dinner on the table. I had made everything ahead of time for the “Sloppy Joels” on a baked potato. As they laughed at the creation, I heard my phone chime again. That time it was an actual call from Ryan instead of a text. My response was the same, though—nothing.
“Bethany, please answer. I need to talk with you. Call me,” was his voice message when I retrieved it.
Again … I did not. I couldn’t. I was afraid of what I might say. I was afraid of how much I was hurting. I was afraid to hurt anymore.

About the Author:
There really wasn't any other path. Grea Warner knew from a young age that she wanted to write. She was born to write. First it was in diaries with little metal keys and in written tales that she slipped to friends in study hall. School newspapers, a college television drama, and the soap opera world were next. After producing and writing a local show, she decided to delve into the world of the novelist. When her fingers aren't tapping out her latest book filled with angst and romance, Grea can be found hiking the trails or jamming to her favorite country artists on the radio.

Maybe you are a workaholic like me. I spend over eight hours on my computer doing various things for my job and still when I have a free moment, I'm checking my phone trying to keep up with any new emails. A classic workaholic. I take my work with me on vacation.
Author Mindy McKinley could have used me as a template for her heroine in her latest book, SHELTER ME, now up for preorder. Jenna is a hard worker who wants to make sure she is doing her best....at her job and with her school. She doesn't want to be derailed by anyone or anything. Then along comes a fun-loving photographer.... let's just say it's a recipe for romance and disaster.
Blurb:
Photographing pets may be the way into her heart….but this veterinarian-in-training is determined not to let a man derail her life.
Studying to be a veterinarian, vet tech Jenna Howard has little time for anything other than school and her work at Chicago Pet Rescue shelter. With no support to fall back on and a mother who is determined to pull her down, Jenna can’t afford to step out of line. Even a night of promised adventure from the hottest bachelor in town isn’t enough to pull her out of her routine.
Newly famous photographer Luke Baxter finds himself enjoying his role as the most eligible bachelor in Chicago. But when he wanders into Chicago Pet Rescue to shoot a fund-raising calendar, and meets the adorably feisty Jenna Howard, everything changes. He’s gotten so used to ‘yes’ that Jenna’s ‘no’ takes him by surprise. Suddenly she’s all he can think about. She’s gorgeous, smart, impossibly difficult to read, and he’ll do almost anything—even adopt a puppy—to make her realize that taking a chance on him doesn’t have to mean giving up on her dreams.
Can he convince her that life isn’t worth living without a little fun?

Blurb:
Things aren’t what they seem. Don’t get involved.
Celisse is too headstrong to listen. Her best friend’s boyfriend is dead, and she does not heed Cullen’s warning, slipped to her in a note as he’s being arrested for the murder.
Cullen tries to keep Celisse out of danger and also tries to avoid her, both unsuccessfully. He can’t deny his feelings for her anymore, but he knows he can’t have her. If she ever discovered the truth about his past, she’d surely hate him.
Struggling with her intense feelings for Cullen, Celisse uses her skills as an ex-prosecutor to investigate, all while continuing to fight for Ogden, the organizer of an underground fight ring. She eventually realizes things are connected: the ring, Ogden, Cullen, the murder—and herself. She races to uncover the truth before she’s arrested or becomes the next victim—or perhaps, the next culprit.
EXCERPT:
One of the policemen took handcuffs from his belt and stepped closer. “You’re under arrest for the murder of Daryl Blake.” Cullen gave no struggle as the policeman handcuffed him. “You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you…”
Bridgette stood and talked to the other policeman. “Daryl is dead?”
“He was found this morning in an alley off Union Avenue, very near Mr. Surratt’s residence.”
Bridgette’s eyes started to tear. “He’s gone,” she mumbled. Then her back straightened. “But Cullen didn’t do anything other than stop him from hurting us.”
“Can you attest to his whereabouts for the rest of the night?”
Bridgette hesitated. “No. Cullen told us to leave.”
The policeman nodded.
“He wanted us to get to safety. Celisse called you guys. You know Daryl was trying to hurt us. Cullen was protecting us from him.”
“Of course,” the policeman said.
“Bridgette,” Celisse murmured. “Sit down.”
Bridgette looked at her. Celisse nodded curtly for her to take her chair. She sat.
With his hands secured behind his back, Cullen allowed himself to be escorted out.
“We’ll be in touch,” the other officer said. He walked out after his partner and Cullen. One of the officer’s handcuffs or gun clanked against the metal frame of the outer office doorway.
“It’s not right,” Bridgette screeched, half a yell and half a sob. “He didn’t do anything. I know it.”
Lily’s voice was calm and quiet. “You can’t know for sure.” She slid her chair closer and hugged Bridgette. “It’ll be all right,” she whispered as she stroked Bridgette’s hair. “You’re safe now, and if Cullen didn’t do it, we’ll help him.”
Bridgette buried her face in Lily’s shoulder. “It’s my fault. All of it. I—” Sobs cut off her words.
“No, sweetie.” Lily continued to stroke her hair.
Celisse looked down at her lap and unfolded the note Cullen had stuffed into her hand.

We spend an inordinate amount of time at work. Those hours add up. Day in and day out. Sometimes the people you work with seem to know you better than your family. Lonely? What better place to find a romance than at work??
The person you see each morning in the coffee room. The person you laugh with over lunch. The after dinner drinks to commiserate about the boss. All of those can be a potential date! As long as you watch your HR rules, mind you. After all, they know exactly what you mean when you roll your eyes after the LOUD TALKER goes by. You only have to nod to them when you leave the conference room.
KJ Holliday's latest preorder- CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER is an office romance filled with laughter and sexiness. Be sure to preorder your copy today! It releases April 27th and you won't want to wait a minute to get your hands on it!
Blurb:
A fun, sexy love story that swaps the narrative of most modern-day office romances.
Caroline Westbrook, the second-generation CEO of her family’s Fortune 500 Company, wanted nothing more than to make Westbrook, LLC uber profitable. When her boyfriend dumps her because she works too much, she isn’t all that surprised. It wasn’t the first time, and it probably wouldn’t be the last.
Enter Colton Bowman, who waltzes into her office late on a Friday night like he owns the place. The disaster of both of their days begins with a drink, and ends with him tossing up her skirts over the side of her desk in the early hours of the morning.
Neither of them expected their night together would leave them wanting more, or that a chance encounter in the company break room a few weeks later would prompt Caroline to do something stupid. She’d just gotten out of a relationship, and didn’t have any desire to jump into another one, but that didn’t stop her from seeking Colton out and tumbling them into a series of sexual encounters that left them both sweaty and satisfied.
Figuring out what she really wants outside of work, while also navigating the intricacies of a potential relationship in modern day Corporate America, proves to be anything but business as usual.

What would happen if one day you woke up with wings? I think I would see if I could fly first. What if you found out that you were a fairy godmother? I would probably see if I could do magic. Maybe see if I could poof away a few pounds.
But what if you found out it was your job to make other people's happily ever afters happen? Would you give up everything you knew? Sarah Vance-Tompkins has written a fun adventure of one young woman who has to figure just that out, and quickly! New Release- I PUT A SPELL ON YOU will have you laughing aloud as you turn the pages to read about the heroine's next antic.
Blurb:
A novice fairy godmother falls in love with Prince Charming. What could possibly go wrong?
AVIANA WILLOWBROOK has no idea that her mother is a living legend until the day the tattered old copy of "The Fairy Godmother's Rulebook" arrives in the mail on her twenty-first birthday. Estranged from her mom, and living in Beverly Hills with her father, her stepmother and two super-achieving stepsisters, Aviana is unhappy and directionless.
Hotel heir and tech billionaire, NASH NOLAN doesn’t know Aviana exists until the day she transforms into a fairy godmother. The chick with the phobia about being pecked to death by a pack of winged creatures suddenly has a pair of unruly wings of her own to deal with. As if that isn’t enough, Aviana's first assignment is to spark a romance between her wicked stepsister and the tall and handsome tech billionaire who’s been her crush forever.
Will Aviana use her powers to help her wicked stepsister find happiness, or will she use her pixie dust to make sure Nash is destined to be hers?
EXCERPT:
The next time I stirred the house was still and dark. The Fairy Godmother’s Rulebook was open next to me on the sofa. Mesmerized by the pattern of lights dancing across the ceiling from the pool in the backyard. I came to the dawning realization I wasn’t alone. Someone was in the house with me.
Maybe I was dreaming, but every time I came to full consciousness I had the terrifying feeling of being watched. I tried to sit up, but I couldn’t. It was as if I’d lost the use of my limbs. I drifted in and out of sleep. Then a shadow moved over me and soft hands brushed against my face. I couldn’t move and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t make a sound.
“Look at her ears,” a man said in a hissing whisper.
“She’s almost reached full maturity,” a woman whispered in response.
A pair of hands gently pushed my hair back over my shoulders. A hand lightly touched the skin on my back, gently moving over the raw, bumpy skin protruding out of the middle of my back.
“She’s fledgling. It won’t be long now,” a woman’s voice whispered. “No more than forty-eight hours.”
I struggled to become fully awake, but couldn’t move. It was as if I was drugged. I laid on the sofa paralyzed with terror and fear until I slipped back to sleep.
But what if you found out it was your job to make other people's happily ever afters happen? Would you give up everything you knew? Sarah Vance-Tompkins has written a fun adventure of one young woman who has to figure just that out, and quickly!

“She’s almost reached full maturity,” a woman whispered in response.
A pair of hands gently pushed my hair back over my shoulders. A hand lightly touched the skin on my back, gently moving over the raw, bumpy skin protruding out of the middle of my back.
“She’s fledgling. It won’t be long now,” a woman’s voice whispered. “No more than forty-eight hours.”
I struggled to become fully awake, but couldn’t move. It was as if I was drugged. I laid on the sofa paralyzed with terror and fear until I slipped back to sleep.

Do you have what it takes to follow your dream? Even if it means rejection or worse, being laughed at?
Too many people believe being told no is the worst thing when they are trying for something spectacular. They think a negative review, a hard pass, a try better next time are all death notes. But what if those are simply one door closing... and you now have to find the other way in?
In Grea Warner's new series, you will get to see what it takes for young Bethany Opala to face her dream head on, even when it means taking a different chance.
Blurb:
How did a sheltered girl from Carolina end up in a national scandal involving one of Hollywood’s most powerful music couples?
When want-a-be singer Bethany Opala tries out for a TV talent show, she is rejected. But then comes an amazing offer … a songwriter’s dream. Bethany has the opportunity to learn and develop her skills with top music manager, Ryan Thompson.
With a mutual passion for music and words, Bethany and Ryan’s writing partnership develops into something more … something love songs are written about. And while it isn’t wrong, it isn’t right, at least in the public eye.
Surrounded by secrecy and half-truths, Bethany doesn’t know how much she should put up with. Especially, when one more rejection could scar her for good. Will her decision to leave not only Ryan, but the music business and California, come down to the toss of a coin?

About the Author:
There really wasn't any other path. Grea Warner knew from a young age that she wanted to write. She was born to write. First it was in diaries with little metal keys and in written tales that she slipped to friends in study hall. School newspapers, a college television drama, and the soap opera world were next. After producing and writing a local show, she decided to delve into the world of the novelist. When her fingers aren't tapping out her latest book filled with angst and romance, Grea can be found hiking the trails or jamming to her favorite country artists on the radio.

Are you the dark and brooding person who loves someone who is bright and happy? What about the classic morning person vs night person? Clean freak vs slob? There are certainly some great reasons why opposites attract. I love having someone who understands my weaknesses and can pick up the slack. I also love that someone can see a different perspective that I don't notice. Best of all, opposites can lead to some major sparks!
A CAPTIVATING TOUCH is a romance with opposites. A free spirited healer and a by the book business man. Oh and the sparks are certainly there! Now available for purchase, be sure to pick up this amazing book which will have you turning the pages into the night.
Which opposite are you? The reading the whole book in one sitting or savoring it through the week because you don't want it to end?
Blurb:
Discover beautiful South Africa in this sweet, heart-warming Cinderella story about a blogger, a billionaire, and one chance meeting.
When it comes to men, if physiotherapist Caitlin Sutherland didn't have bad luck, she’d have no luck at all. To help cope, Caitlin blogs about the men she meets and the bad dates she’d gone on.
While on duty during the annual Wines to Whales bicycle race, a gorgeous, sweaty cyclist walks in and sets her hormones dancing. But he is Don Cavallo; one of the four Cavallo brothers — hotel tycoons, famous as much for their business skills as for the number of beauties seen on their arms.
Billionaire Don Cavallo has his own issues with the other sex. He has yet to find one who is interested in him, not his money or hotels. But when this sexy physio puts her hands on his back, she not only touches his body, but also his heart.
They've both been burned before, but neither of them can stop themselves from playing with fire.
EXCERPT:
“Please take off your shirt and lie down on your stomach,” Caitlin said and turned away, looking for the massage oil.
“Any pain in your legs?” she asked as she turned back to him. And nearly dropped the bottle of oil she was holding.
On the same level as her eyes was the most perfect six-pack of steel muscles she had ever seen. And if she hadn’t been holding something in her hand, she would probably have done something stupid like putting out a hand and touching him to make sure his abs really felt as hard as they looked.
“The pain kind of goes down into my right buttock,” he said, bringing her back to reality.
What was she thinking? She stepped back quickly and turned her back on him again.
“Okay, please lie down,” she mumbled while frantically looking for something else to do. A towel. She would need a towel. There was a sound behind her, and praying that the man was lying down, she once more turned around, this time slowly.
He was stretched out on his stomach. His broad, muscled back was as impressive as the six-pack in front. Her hands tingled as if she were already touching him. Oh, my goodness. It is so hot in here all of a sudden.
Caitlin exhaled slowly. She was a trained professional. Treating injuries was what she’d studied so hard for and what she wanted to do. He is just another patient. In pain. She was supposed to help him, not drool over him.
“You have probably overstretched the ligaments, causing them to overstrain,” she said, trying to focus on what she was doing, not what she wanted to be doing.
His head turned. “You think?” Sarcasm dripped from his words.
“Yes, I think,” she snapped. “You guys should all learn to change your riding position.”
“Will you just give me a massage? Please? Lower back.” He turned his head again.
Caitlin gnashed her teeth in an effort to keep quiet. Any wayward thoughts she had about the man vanished. Could one person be so obnoxious and irritating? She normally made light conversation with her patients, but if he didn’t want that, fine. She poured some of the oil onto her palm.
As she brought her hands down onto his lower back, she steeled herself. Any second now she was going to touch him. Annoyed, she shook her head. She was a trained physiotherapist for goodness’ sake, not a masseuse in a sleazy joint. And then her hands were on his back, kneading and massaging muscles hard as steel.

About the Author:
Elsa has been reading love stories for as long as she can remember and when she ‘met’ the classic authors like Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell, Henry James The Brontë sisters, etc. during her Honours studies, she was hooked for life.
She married her college boyfriend and soul mate and after 45 years, 3 interesting and wonderful children and 4 beautiful grandchildren they are fortunate to live in the picturesque little seaside village of Betty's Bay, South Africa.
She likes the heroines in her stories to be beautiful, feisty, independent and headstrong. And the heroes must be strong but possess a generous amount of sensitivity. They are of course, also gorgeous! Her stories typically incorporate the family background of the characters to better understand where they come from and who they are when we meet them in the story.

What are you willing to fight for? I would fight for my children and my loved ones. I'd fight for my pets and my friends. There is a lot of things I would fight for. How about you?
Do you think you are strong enough? I've not learned how to throw a punch. I feel pretty weak but I know how to scratch and bite--you know, girl fighting. Celisse would certainly kick my butt. Yet, I know she would have my back if I was in trouble. She's a stand up person who risks her life for people she cares about.
FIGHT PRINCESS is a gripping story about redeemed love and standing up for what you believe in. You won't be able to put the story down so be sure to preorder your copy today!
Blurb:
Things aren’t what they seem. Don’t get involved.
Celisse is too headstrong to listen. Her best friend’s boyfriend is dead, and she does not heed Cullen’s warning, slipped to her in a note as he’s being arrested for the murder.
Cullen tries to keep Celisse out of danger and also tries to avoid her, both unsuccessfully. He can’t deny his feelings for her anymore, but he knows he can’t have her. If she ever discovered the truth about his past, she’d surely hate him.
Struggling with her intense feelings for Cullen, Celisse uses her skills as an ex-prosecutor to investigate, all while continuing to fight for Ogden, the organizer of an underground fight ring. She eventually realizes things are connected: the ring, Ogden, Cullen, the murder—and herself. She races to uncover the truth before she’s arrested or becomes the next victim—or perhaps, the next culprit.

I really love this novel. And not just because the main character is a writer. I love this novel because of the setting. Okay, I do love the whole story, the characters and the romance, but the setting is really sweet.
Think about it...the characters are camping. They hiked in and they set up a tent. They had to build a fire, they had to catch their food. Who doesn't love being close to nature?
You aren't a camping person? Why not?
Seriously, I wasn't either until my husband took me camping on the shore of Lake Michigan. The waves were crashing and lulled me to sleep at night. Our tent was under the branches of a tall pine tree and we did have running water and bathroom facilities at the state park.
There is something nice about being in the wild...as long as it has electricity, bathrooms, oh and isn't raining!
Seriously, 10 DAYS is a marvelous tale of friendship which blossoms into something more. It's that one look at a person and suddenly you see them in a different way. A perfect romantic comedy filled with fresh air and laughter. Be sure to grab your own copy today!
Blurb:
A hilarious love story featuring an overdramatic city boy and an incomparable girl from the country.
In an attempt to knock out the long-awaited follow-up to his best-selling first novel, Alexander Jones lets his best friend convince him that trekking into the wilderness for a survival boot camp was the only way to get the creative juices flowing.
With the help of a detailed itinerary, Luke, and Luke's childhood friend, Penny, they’d committed 10 days to help Alex forgo his Urbanite roots and embrace the countryside.
It took a lifetime to get to the mountains where Luke and Penny had camped as kids, and only a second for Alex to know he was out of his element.
In a surprising twist of fate, it also took 10 days for him to fall in love with Penny Foster. The question was, did Penny feel the same way, and what would Luke say when he found out?
EXCERPT:
“I don’t know why I love it here so much. Some of the best memories of my childhood were here. Each time it was like our own little world. Just Dad and me. Sometimes Penny if her mom would let her come. I guess I just expected you’d feel the same way. Which is stupid.”
Alex felt the uncertainty in Luke’s voice, and, well, he didn’t hate it completely. “No, it’s not. It’s fucking beautiful here.”
It was just hard for him to acclimate. He’d never done this before, and up until then, he’d never had to lament the fact he’d never done anything like this. It was like peeking behind the curtain, getting to see a glimpse of another person’s childhood, a person who grew up happy and loved.
He usually didn’t let things like that bother him, but the thought he could have had a childhood like this pricked a little. He could just picture it. He and his sister in the water, splashing each other, throwing rocks, and causing general mayhem at every opportunity. His mom would be cooking over the campfire. His dad would be catching their dinner.
From his spot in the lake, and through the hazy filtered colors of the setting sun, he could see Penny’s silhouette moving around the camp. A shower of dancing sparks lit the area from where she must have put a log on the fire.
Some of the best memories of my childhood were here.
He bet they were.

I started writing when I was nine years old. I was in love, it was poetry, and it was absolutely awful. I’ve always loved the written word, and at the age of thirteen I started posting short stories on various free platforms. Short stories grew to multi chapter novellas, which eventually turned to novels. Since then I’ve written hundreds of thousands of words, self-published five short stories, one novel, and am now working with Inkspell Publishing to publish two manuscripts coming early 2021.
