The Dragon Chornicles Book One: Learning by D.R. Grady






EXCERPT
“From her squeaky voice, I take it Lindy hasn’t accepted her new role in life?” Amusement and sympathy lit Keely’s eyes.

“Neither of them, in fact.”

“I’m struggling with being a dragon, but I’ve got being an elf down,” Lindy huffed.

Alex turned amused eyes on Keely. “This is Lindy Veles, my dragon and my mate. She’s in denial.”

Mate? Her mind jammed into neutral. Lindy choked on the tea she just sipped. Alex bolted upright and tapped her back until she coughed the liquid out of her lungs. “Mate?” she choked out. This was way too soon.

He scooped her up and settled her on his lap. And therefore sheltered and protected her within his warmth. “Mate.”

No way. This was not possible.

Hugh leaned forward and sniffed in the freaky way shifters do. “Mates for sure.”

“You can smell it?” Ewain’s eyes were as wide as hers.

Blurb
Peace has reigned for so long, most beings believe dragons are mere myths, including elf professor Dr. Lindy Veles. After meeting attractive Dr. Alex von Schreider—a surly professor from a bear shifter family who possesses plenty of paranormal power, yet can't shift—things start to spiral downward. Especially when he catches Lindy's strong shifter scent. Elves don’t normally shift. Alex finds the compelling elf’s denials suspicious. Lindy thinks he’s crazy to believe she’s a shifter.

As they delve into the ancient Dragon Chronicles, tomes about dragons, it quickly becomes clear their efforts are no mere academic exercise. Dragons are suddenly becoming all too real. When Lindy shifts into one, Alex discovers he’s meant to control her dragon—the most powerful creature on earth. The pair is caught in the middle of two raging battles . . . their own personal emotional war and the war to save their world.

With the clock ticking, Lindy and Alex must surrender their misconceptions about themselves and dragons, and unite to begin the fight for their very existence.



Hook
A carefree elf and a surly bear non-shifter have to unite to save the world. Too bad no one believes in dragons, until she turns into one under dire circumstances.

A Mighty Good Man by Rebecca E. Neely



BLURB
‘Hank’ Jerry - she’s a tough talking twentieth century broad looking for a way to reclaim her writing career.

Jack ‘Gent’ Darcy -he’s a strange blend of gentleman and hood fresh out of prison with a story to tell that could get them both killed.

Forced to return to the small town she left behind because of her aunt’s health, ‘Hank’ will do her own time minding her aunt’s restaurant, then it’s back to the city to do damage control for her career. When Jack lands on her doorstep, injured and on the run from gang enforcers out for blood and hot on his tail, she makes the split second decision to offer him refuge.

As soon as the coast is clear, she has every intention of sending him on his way, but he makes her an offer she can’t refuse. Not only will he fill the open position of cook, he offers her the exclusive of a lifetime: his no holds barred story as war counselor inside national super gang, the Creds. She’ll shoot straight to the top, and he’ll bury the gang, then disappear—a win-win.

But they’ve both got something to hide, and falling for each other wasn’t part of the plan. With time running out and gang enforcers closing in, can the trust they’ve forged survive the ultimate test?

Find out in A Mighty Good Man...3 Days. 2 People. 1 Story.





CHAPTER 1 EXCERPT

Zip. Zilch. Null. Nada. Void. The empty set.

No text. No email. No electronic communiqué of any kind.

Scowling, ‘Hank’ Jerry—a woman who wore the self-made moniker the way some might armor—jammed her smartphone into the front pocket of her cargo pants and sucked a drag off her first cancer stick of the day, exhaling into the predawn behind her Aunt Henry’s restaurant. The fluorescents overhead cast a harsh glow over this particular piece of real estate in Fiddler’s Elbow, Pennsylvania—a throwback hunky mill town where dial-up was considered high tech and people still lived life one pierogie at a time.

From the shadows behind the dumpster, a man emerged and limped toward her, clutching his side, his chest heaving, clouds of his breath hanging in the April air.

“Hide me!” he gasped.

“What the hell?” Heart pounding, Hank retreated a few steps and threw her cigarette to the ground. Blood, bruises, panic—all of it oozed from this man who’d materialized like smoke. Tires squealed on pavement in the alley running the length of the restaurant and hodge-podge of neighboring buildings.

“Will you?” he ground out.

A dozen fleeting impressions swamped her brain. Muscular. Dirty. Unshaven. Murderer? Crazy? Eyes, wild and green, probing and pleading in the artificial light. In the alley, car doors slammed. Feet pounded gravel and shouts cut through the dark. Two people? More?

“Please.”

They locked eyes. No, said her gut. Not crazy. But maybe she was.

SPRING FOR LOVE BLOG HOP




Hello everyone! I hope this post finds you having a great Friday and enjoying the first signs of Spring. Here in Indiana, the birds are out and the grass is slowly turning green.

I love Spring but what I love even more is bringing you great authors and new books! So, stay with me for the next three days and follow the links I provide and you can meet so many new authors and have a chance to win lots of prizes.

The first author I want to introduce you to is, ANNA B. COLE. and her new book, SOULS ENTWINED which is of the fantasy/ paranormal genre.




Cursed by a heirloom ring, her spirit time travels to a treasure’s origin—where pirates, danger, and love converge.
BLURB
A tree crashes upon two strangers. Time stands still. A cursed family heirloom catapults eighteen-year-old Gretta Dobbs back in time with Sam Daggett, who reluctantly agrees to help despite an instant infatuation with her. Their souls entwine within the bodies of young lovers on a Greek island in 1829, where they collect information on the mysteries behind Gretta's ring all while avoiding revenge-seeking pirates. Can Gretta and Sam find the secrets needed to save her from an afterlife in purgatory? Or will they become trapped in the past, continuing the evil cycle of the ring's curse?

Author Bio
Anne B. Cole

Souls Entwined is Anne B. Cole’s debut release combining sweet romantic suspense, time travel, and paranormal elements in a novel attractive to a wide range of readers.  In addition to writing, Anne teaches preschool and is raising three very active teenagers with her husband of twenty-two years. With an Education degree from Penn State University, Anne began her teaching in elementary schools. A move to Indiana and becoming a mom of three kids in three and a half years sparked her interest in teaching preschool where she has been for the last eleven years. Anne began writing in 2010 when she realized she didn't have a book to read during her kids’ swim meet. With over ten hours of sitting in the stands, she decided to make the best of it and flipped over the heat sheet. Ideas for a book were jotted down and the outline of Souls Entwined was born. Anne's writing hobby turned into an addiction! The Souls Trilogy continues July 2015 with Souls Estranged. Anne is currently writing the final book in the trilogy, Souls Endure with a tentative release date of 2016.
Spring is my favorite time of the year because I love watching daffodils, tulips, and irises burst from the ground and color my flower beds.
