HUG HUG HUG!!

Make new friends. But kill the old.

Reunions are great. Especially if everyone makes it home alive. After twenty years living in France, Maggie’s proud of her language skills and her ability to adapt to a foreign culture, so when four women from her Atlanta high school invite her to get together for a mini reunion in Paris, Maggie can’t wait to show them how she’s changed.

Unfortunately, after two awkward days and a miserable Seine River tour Maggie realizes what she should have remembered — three of the four girls were never really nice to her in high school — and the fourth one didn’t know she existed. Everything changes dramatically however, when, on the morning that Maggie decides to leave early, one of her friends is found brutally murdered in her hotel room.

The police suspect the killer is one of the four surviving friends with Maggie’s name topping the list. Determined to prove her innocence, Maggie plunged into the secret pockets and hidden quarters of Montmartre and the nontouristy parts around the Sacre Coeur to find out the truth. In the process she discovers that each of her friends had reasons for wanting Christy dead.

As suspicions deepen and tensions rise, what started as a fun reunion in the City of Light, becomes an intense game of life-and-death as Maggie races to unmask the killer and the decades-old secret that drives her — before she kills again.

Murder in Montmartre is a riveting international whodunit about the snarled perceptions of old friendships, and the treasures – and tragedies – that can arise when a terrible past that won’t die collides with the lies of the present.

A planet steeped in mystery… Jess Amiko is long past her days as a space marine, with all the glory of that time tarnished beyond repair by what came after. Trying to rebuild from the ashes, she’s taken a job as a security guard on Kenai, a lonely world far from the Council systems. It’s supposed to be easy duty – quiet and peaceful, on a docile world with no real threats, watching over an archeological dig at a site built by a race long vanished.

Betrayed and attacked by forces unknown, and finding that nothing on Kenai makes sense, Jess is plunged into a desperate fight for survival that leads her deep into the mysteries of Kenai’s past, and deep into the hardship and paradox the planet imposes on all who call it home.

Content warning: military-style violence.

Hannah

The night before starting my new job was not when I wanted to meet my neighbor. Certainly not in the middle of the night, wearing next to nothing, as I bang on his door to tell him to quiet down. And when he answers the door, I almost swallow my tongue. He’s possibly the hottest guy I’ve ever seen. But when he opens his mouth, my Southern upbringing rears its ugly head, and I slam up those carefully constructed walls around my heart.

Luca calls me Pixie, and suggests I need to loosen up. When I finally decide to lower my walls with him however, he walks into my work office. As the social media manager for the Denver Wolves hockey team, I’d been warned about one specific hot player, both on and off the ice. Of course, he’d be that hot player. But I just can’t stay away… until I’m forced to.

Luca

I’m the black sheep of the Wolves. The one who has too much bad publicity. Everyone, including my family, thinks I’m a player. No one believes that I’m tired of the partying. The lifestyle. The games. But I don’t know how to change things, until she moves in next door.

Hannah makes me want to be a better man. But life on the ice has gotten murky, and my coach is clearly looking to get rid of me. I’ve never taken chances on anyone before, but something tells me Hannah is worth the risk.

“Some make chains. Some wear them.” Rosie Wallace survives on three slices of bread a day. Scarred by flame and metal, she makes her life as her ancestors have: making chains for the rich chain master, Matthew Joshua. There is no hope for a better future. No hope even for a green vegetable on the table. Her life will be making chains, marrying Jack, the boy she loves, and babies every year. But when an assault by the chain master’s son threatens the very fabric of her tenuous existence, Rosie finds the courage and the reason to fight for her own survival and the lives of her family and neighbours. Set in the first decade of the 20th century The Chainmakers’ Daughter is a haunting portrayal of abject poverty, ever-present death, and modern-day slavery. The Chainmakers’ Daughter is set in England, the Black Country from 1901 – 1910. Rosie is the eldest daughter of chainmakers, learning her trade at her mother’s side. Pay for women is poor, and despite working ten or twelve hours a day, starvation wages keep the chainmakers in abject poverty, while the chain masters reap the profit. Hearing that in London, agitator and socialist, Mary Macarthur, is lobbying parliament to end sweated labour, Rosie writes to her, begging her help in their desperate plight, but can one person unite the women chainmakers of Hawley Heath to strike for a living wage and defeat their rich and powerful chain master, who refuses to pay the legal wage? Can the white slaves of England defeat the chain master, or will Rosie’s ill-considered liaison with the chain master’s son lose her the man she loves and possibly end her life on the gallows? A Victorian/Edwardian political social drama, The Chainmakers’ Daughter exposes the living conditions of working-class women and girl’s in the early 1900s. Mary Macarthur, a socialist and the first woman to stand for parliament, founded the Anti-Sweating League, the National Federation of Women Workers, and was instrumental in getting the 1910 Wage Board Act and a legal minimum wage into law. It was a fight that took many years and culminated in the women chainmakers’ strike of 1910, a strike that lasted two months. A family saga, this is the story of the fight of ordinary working women for a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work that paved the pay for a national minimum wage and equality for women.
