Sample: 


When the Seraphim ruled the heavens, a vain angel dared to risk everything for the love of a human and paid the price of eternal damnation.
Sold into slavery when he was six years old, Kai has never known love. As he reached maturity, his slavers realized Kai was no ordinary man. There was something else lurking inside. An uncontrollable force that feeds on his rage and anger gives him the advantage when thrown into the pits of Darkmide to fight for his life. There he learns that killing brings rewards - after each win, he's given a female slave to sate his sexual needs.
After years of many victories and a life of pain under the lash, Kai breaks free from his chains and releases all the slaves, raging a bloody war against the slavers and killing them all. Closing down the goldmines in Darkmide, he vows no one else will die doing the backbreaking work of harvesting gold.
His deeds are famed throughout the lands, and after four years, he settles in Blackhill, a town not far from Darkmide, where he rules with a firm hand.
King Garlan from Brightstone, afraid of losing his throne to a threat from the Highlands, and hearing of Kai's formidable reputation, sends his envoy to request an alliance with the infamous warrior. The agreement is to offer his daughters hand in marriage, Princess Eloise, in exchange for Kai's support. Kai instantly falls for the beautiful princess and soon discovers he's not the only one with a secret.

The Cadets Series, by Edward Miller

Don't miss this blend of Star Trek and Indiana Jones!

From the co-author of The Kronos Interference, "Cadets" is a heart-pounding space adventure series. Follow hotshot earth-defender Ryan Thompson and intrepid Amanda Williamson as they fend off alien threats to the planet Earth. Read on!

Cadets, by Edward Miller

"With clever ideas and agile prose, Miller builds a world reminiscent of Star Trek: Ryan is a rebellious young Captain Kirk who knows that "sometimes going by the book [isn't] the best course to take." Amid the pop-culture references to Star Wars and comic books, Miller's believable, motivated characters shine, as Ryan's brashness conflicts with Amanda's search for peaceful solutions. A tightly written, fast-paced prose supernova." -- Kirkus Reviews

On a remote training planet, hotshot Earth Defense Fleet Cadet Ryan Thompson and his peace loving ex-girlfriend Amanda Williamson can't agree on anything. But when news comes of an alien invasion of Earth--the first in human history--they are thrown together on a deadly, unauthorized mission to face an unknown enemy. What they find is beyond their wildest expectations. A discovery that changes everything they thought they knew...about their hostile adversaries--and mankind.

With a trail of riddles and mysteries, epic space battles and journeys to the far corners of Earth, this "Star Trek meets Indiana Jones" Sci-Fi Adventure from Author Edward Miller should appeal to fans of Sci-Fi Space Operas and Young Adult Science Fiction. Edward Miller's debut novel with co-author J.B. Manas, The Kronos Interference, was named to Kirkus reviews best of 2012 and received a Starred Review from Kirkus, which called it "Impressively original" and a "Tour De Force."

Swiftshadow (Spies Lie Book 3), by DS Kane. (Still free?)



"Cassandra "Cassie" Sashakovich is a consultant of an Intelligence agency. Her cover is blown by a "mole" in the Agency and she loses her job. Now she is being hunted. No longer protected by the Agency she is on her own and on the run. A fast paced psychological/suspense. I really liked Cassie and watching her character develop. She is faced with tough choices which made the story even more intense. Swiftshadow is fantastic (as a stand alone)." -- Amazon Reviewer

When Cassandra Sashakovich, a bright but arrogant economist and consultant, is in Riyadh completing a financial forecasting assignment, her cover is blown by a mole from her intelligence agency. A covert agent whose call sign is "Swiftshadow," she barely survives an encounter with a hit man and escapes to Washington, where she is fired by her agency for becoming a liability.
Hunted by terrorists who fear she may have hacked details of their pending operation, Cassie must identify the mole and neutralize the terrorists to recover her life. She finds help in the arms of another rogue agent, Lee Ainsley, and learns how to deal with life on the run from a homeless teen, Ann Silbee.
From Riyadh to the halls of power in Washington, from New York's homeless to Hong Kong's center of technology, from the remnants of Silicon Valley to Al Qaeda's Afghanistan, Cassie desperately races against the clock to expose plots by both her own government and the terrorists; an operation that could result in the deaths of millions of Americans. Cassie must come to terms with her own nature, find and use skills she never knew she had.
But even if she survives, will the experience change her into someone worse than those who want her dead? And if she survives is there some way for her to emerge more mature and self-reliant, no longer a naive tool of her country?

I Am Phantom, by Sean Fletcher. (Still free?)



"I Am Phantom was an engaging read that definitely had me wanting to read more. For a first published book it is very good from what I have seen. The characters were complex enough that you came to like and even cheer for them but weren't over complicated. The story was pretty cool and it could be a trilogy. It is a good book for the audience and I would read another book by Sean." -- Amazon Reviewer

Finding the answers just might kill you…

Eighteen-year-old Drake Sinclair is a freak. There’s no other explanation for his superhuman speed, strength and fighting prowess that makes him feared by those around him. But going to college in North Carolina promises a fresh start. A new place with new people, and maybe, just maybe, a chance to find out who he really is.

Until the psychopath shows up.

The notorious serial killer, Lucius Sykes, is physically enhanced like Drake: stronger, faster, and smarter than any human. He is the original survivor of the illegal tests done to both of them by Project Midnight; a project that will stop at nothing to get Drake back and complete their experiments.

Trapped between Sykes’ murderous frenzy against guilty and innocents alike, and the brutality of Project Midnight, Drake realizes his own superhuman abilities are the only things that can stop them both. He takes to the streets as Phantom, a vigilante straddling the blurred lines of good and evil. Hounded by the chief of police, his morality tested by the sickness and hate he fights everyday and split between stopping Sykes and seeking answers from him, Phantom must find out who the real evil is before everything he’s come to love goes to ruin.

A coming of age in a city of madness and rage.

No Perfect Destiny, by Jackie Weger. (Still free?)



"Leah and her two children have been on the run from both her husband, and a past that wants nothing more than to forget. There are some really funny parts in this story, and a slow growing romance going on. There's also a little bit of mystery going, as they search for the real culprit responsible for taking the money. The ending just might shock and surprise you. I would highly recommend any of Jackie Weger's books. I have read five of them so far, and I loved them all!" -- Amazon Reviewer

Whiskey Rebellion: An Addison Holmes Mystery (Addison Holmes Mysteries Book 1), by Liliana Hart. (Still ?)



"Addison is a delight. Ms. Hart has constructed a well-developed plot with enough twists to keep me reading long past bedtime. I'll be looking for more books in this series as I'm especially interested in how Addison is going to grow as a character." -- Amazon Reviewer

WHISKEY REBELLION: AN ADDISON HOLMES MYSTERY



In Whiskey Bayou, Georgia, the humidity is thick, the gossip juicy, and family is everything. For Addison Holmes, she's just trying to get by, and teaching history to a bunch of hormonal teenagers isn't exactly lining her pockets. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Who would've guessed her principal would be in the audience of the strip club that hired her?



Addison is almost positive her life can't get any worse. Until she stumbles over her principal's dead body in the parking lot. There's no way Whiskey Bayou won't hear about that juicy tidbit, which means she's likely to be out of a job. 


Thank goodness for Kate McClean. Addison's best friend owns The McClean Detective Agency, and sometimes it's good to have friends in high places. Or at least places that can offer a girl a job to spy on low-lifes and adulterers. But when her principal's murder intersects with her new job, this gum-shoe learns fast that she knows nothing about catching bad guys. Fortunately, the sexy detective in charge is there to lend a hand.
