The Stars Will Sing Our Songs Long After We Are Gone…
…but who will remain to listen? Who will hear their sagas of conflict and discovery, their hymns of honor in the face of political intrigue, their ballads of tough calls made against the opposition of friends and enemies alike?
Open your ears to these unyielding revelations which sing of humanity’s place in the cosmos among distant worlds, of beings that exist outside our reality, and of shocking futures. Listen to their tales. Sometimes there are no good choices only hard calls. Though humanity may one day vanish, the stars forget nothing. We can only hope Vox Astra will be kind when they tell of us.

Cover Designer – Carina Alyce, MethodMike
Dr. Stella Magi has never been one for half measures. Despite drinking her way through residency, she’s sober now and a successful surgeon. Still, she has cravings for that high, and MetroGen is full of eligible bachelors who can meet her needs.
Juggling three guys is harder than she thought, and she’s gonna have to narrow it down soon. Should she pick Marcus Doyle, the playboy of the ER, Alex Casserty, the sensitive and cerebral neurosurgeon, or Joel Glazier, her super macho friend with benefits?
Or she could just choose herself – right before all hell breaks loose.
WARNING – this book ends on a jaw-dropping, unforgivable cliffhanger and violates every romance rule you know. If this isn’t not for you, keep scrolling. However, everyone else, I promise red-hot M/F sex as Dr. Stella tries out every flavor in the sexy doctor ice cream store.

Carina Alyce is the pen name of the Amazon best-selling author and full-time triple board-certified physician who started writing dramatic medical romances after twenty years in the trenches of health care. She promises she never had sex in a call room – the mattresses are not comfortable – or had a fistfight with a patient – though she did work as a fight doc at the Octagon. Her MetroGen romances are sexy, snarky, and real with all the heat and drama of the lives of our first responders.

 

She writes the MetroGen Downtown series that tackles the personal and professional challenges facing our front line providers. Her stories have the drama of Grey’s Anatomy, the comedy of Scrubs, the sexiness of Outlander, and the medical details of Forensic Files. They feature fast, witty dialogue, strong women with goals, and quirky ensemble casts because the hospital is full of smart weirdos who are willing to save your life.

When not working or writing, she is a brown belt in judo, an avid reader, and an attending surgeon in stuffed animal veterinary medicine for her six kids. (No one trusts her husband’s medical skills because he’s just a lawyer.)

His name was Ian. My name was Grace. But in a city of eight million people, who cared about names.

Surprisingly, he did. We’d bumped into each other once, but Ian remembered my name and the fact that I owned a flower shop.

And… he knew I walked to my shop every day. A bit stalkerish, I feared.

Then he offered me a place to live when I needed one. I’d cook him dinner every night for a rent-free stay.

Yep. Right. Too good to be true.

I accepted when I should have stayed away.

After getting finally on the right track to having the stable life I wanted, I didn’t need to throw a mysterious guy into the mix.

But despite my best wishes to protect myself, I was so intrigued by him. He was enigmatic, handsome, successful—a man who owned his world.

And it didn’t help that he sought after me relentlessly. So, for a while, I’d silenced my doubts.

Physically he was there, checking all the right boxes with me, but his heart held to a secret he swore I would never unveil.

Cover Designer – Moonstruck Cover Designs/Emma Ryder
At seventeen, Van knows her life is somewhat charmed, rarely feeling the deep bite of injustice, but this is ridiculous. The Jaychund Games—a vital part of senior exams—should’ve been an effortless victory. Instead, the last-minute addition of an off-islander tripped her up. So, losing her temper? Completely justifiable.
Her ex-boyfriend and her best friend are flirting right under her nose, while she hasn’t heard from her crush, Ferox, the Balish crown prince, in ages.
And now Van’s leading her team on a mission deep into Balish-occupied territory—enemy territory—to check the third seal with her powers on the fritz.
Then she breaks one tiny Balish rule, and as punishment, she’s tossed headlong into another round of games. See? Totally unfair.
Old enemies, a deadly virus, royal intrigues, cloaked assassins—and the sudden realization that someone has sent her there for an entirely different reason—
threaten to send her life plan up in flames. If she fails, only the Creator knows if Van and her team will get out of this mess alive.

Fake fiancées for a week. Lovers for a lifetime?

Amara

When my boss has this brilliant idea which features me and the office hot shot posing as fake fiancées for a week, I balk. In no uncertain terms. I mean, Petro Mikalos is ten years my junior, and he’s gorgeous—like an actor or a model. Who is going to believe we are starry-eyed fiancées planning a wedding?

This assignment is a chance to prove I’m worthy of a promotion, so I’ll do it. But I won’t like it—much.

Petro

When my boss asks me to pose as a fake fiancée to my office crush, Amara Gabriel, I’m all in. She doesn’t seem as excited as I am, but the chance to be alone with her is too good to pass up. Even if it means re-living the worst time in my life—my first wedding ended in tragedy.

And the assignment is in California, which means my parents will expect me to visit. I haven’t spoken to my famous movie producer father in three years, and I don’t want to start now. But I’ll risk it for the chance at a promotion—and to get close to Amara.

Hope

To him, I’m just an annoying voice in his head.

I never once asked for this ability.

I connect telepathically with people

who don’t realize they need my help.

Once done, I sever the connection.

This man though, he’s different.

Connecting with Russ is refreshing,

but I don’t know why after two months we can’t figure out the reason for the connection.

All I know is I’m getting way too attached.

But until the monster who used my abilities for his personal gain is found,

everyone I’ve ever cared about has to believe I’m no longer alive.

Russ

My mind has been invaded by a mysterious voice.

She can read my thoughts, and see the world through my eyes.

She’s frustrating and doesn’t hesitate to call me out on thoughts I would never share with anyone else.

She also saved me, more than once.

As we start to talk more and I discover she’s always on the run,

she says I’ll be the one to save her.

How can I save someone I’ve never met?

As a friendship develops and feelings grow,

I know that I’ll do whatever I can for her,

Especially when I learn the reason we were brought together.

No matter where she goes, USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Lynn Barrett hears voices in her head. Instead of calling her crazy and locking her up, her family realizes it’s just a product of being an author and allows her to write the stories so that the voices shut up.

But they don’t. And probably never will. There’s no need to lock her up, Nikki knows she’ll never escape the voices, not until each and every last story is written. And for every story she writes, about ten or more ideas pop up.

When she isn’t slaving away at her computer writing books that will probably make you cry and keep you in suspense, Nikki plots to take over the world one book at a time. What? It’s a sickness. One she can’t escape!

Books aren’t her only addiction, though. Nikki can be found making up parodies to drive her son crazy, and bantering back and forth with her husband, who somehow manages to steal her away from the fictional world she lives in all the time.

Nikki lives in Arizona with her husband and son, where she can be found using every creativity outlet she can find through music, photography, handcrafted things, and random interests that she may pick up from time to time.

Magic, Romance, and Shifters – OH MY!

This is a zany, wacky story about a guy named Lockwood King.

There’s magic.

There’s humor.

There’s chaos.

There’s meddling by outside forces (but it’s for their own good – really, it is).

There’s sort of fated mates (fate gets a little push – okay, a big shove, but everyone deserves an HEA, right)?

There’s a bit of cursing (the magic and the swearing kind).

There’s inconvenient tentacle wrestling. (Don’t ask me, I just write what the characters tell me to).

And speaking of tentacles, did I mention the cigar-smoking octopus named Clyde?

If you don’t like absurdly unbelievable tales and magical mishaps, this probably isn’t the book for you. You’ve been warned.

Journeys Through SpaceTime

A mysterious being of immense power and wisdom appears in the minds of inhabitants across the vast MultiVerse of space and time to provide both warning and encouragement to fellow souls.

An exciting journey of adventure and discovery develop for these inhabitants as a sword master’s son, a powerfully enlightened Queen, a skilled warrior, an “ordinary” college student from Earth, a reptilian humanoid scientist, and a wise and beautiful leader of a utopian world use newly acquired knowledge and skills to battle evil forces intent on ensuring reality forms as they intend.

Puzzlement ensues as special mentors appear and seem to defy what reality means. Wielding godlike powers, these teachers help illuminate the secrets of all creation.

With the fate of the entire MultiVerse at stake, which side will become the victor in the end?

Journeys Through TimeSpace

As a powerful leader of a planet in the vast MultiVerse of time and space begins preparations for implementing his plan, young former college students from Earth are dispatched to a magical hidden place in the Himalayas to begin their own preparations.

Each side of this battle for the fate of Earth and her inhabitants must secure ancient treasures. Immense obstacles confront both sides as they work to obtain these powerful artifacts.

Not only must our young Earth heroes learn new knowledge and skills associated with ancient wisdom traditions, but they must travel to both Earth’s past and future to find the treasures needed to defend their world against a powerful enemy.

Secret Earth organizations are also players in this thrilling adventure. These ancient groups have been adversaries for hundreds of years. Their long-term battle becomes intense as Earth’s fate draws closer.

As the clock ticks, can Earth’s defenders succeed, or will the powerful reptilian humanoid leader and his followers achieve their plan for reality across the MultiVerse of time and space?

Journeys Through AllCreation

An ancient prophecy foretells the diabolical plans of an exceedingly intelligent and powerful being. To ensure reality continues to unfold as desired, the ‘god’ entity will utilize the innate powers contained in the Dokkaebi-of-all-Creation to destroy various universes that make up the MultiVerse.

Celestial beings most capable of stopping these plans for destruction become trapped in an alternate reality. Can they escape this illusion before their fates are sealed forever?

Former twins from the lost continent of Atlantis will play pivotal roles in countering the threat of total annihilation for untold numbers of lives across the MultiVerse. Will they be able to help save their current home worlds and the mentors who have taught them so much?

A beautiful and enlightened queen is enlisted in the team’s quest to find an ancient artifact that could assist them in locating the Master Mage. This wizard is their only real hope for defeating the former celestial leader. Can this strange and unassuming being provide what is needed?

While the outcome cannot be fully predicted from the discovered text and images, both sides prepare for an inevitable confrontation as the ancient prophecy plays out. As ‘gods’ and mortals face off in the battle for the future of all creation, which ideals and forces will reign supreme?

“A great and mysterious event occurred. Religious talisman came fluttering down out of the empty sky. Men dressed as women. Women dressed as men. The town’s people dancing through the village. The villagers cavorting in towns. Whole populations drunk. Orgiastic behavior in the streets and paper talismans falling from the Heavens, like cherry blossoms in the wind. The world was coming to an end. A new one was apparent.” ~ Iwakura Tomomi.                                                                                                                  

    Western winds blow revolution across Japan as Emperor Meiji seeks to modernize his country. The changes, the whispers of siege and war in retaliation, sweep over Ono Aia. Her small world, wound and bound like the kimono around her body, revolves around the geishas she serves and the geisha she hopes to be.

     But upheaval cannot be stopped. Aia is flung into the arms of a swordsman with obsidian eyes and a blade that can cut more than mortal flesh. His name is Nen.

        At his side, not only does Aia learn of a mythical realm beyond human comprehension, she learns where her heart may truly lie. Perhaps it is not in the study and perfection of the geisha tradition. Perhaps, it beside a man larger than life. His size terrifies and thrills her. His black eyes dazzle and delight her.

     But the spirits of Japanese lore could destroy man’s reality. Can the fates of the mortal and fantastical world remain in balance? Or will Aia find her heart only to lose it in the uproar?

Genre- Gothic Fairytale, Folk Horror
Page Count – 127
Cover Designer – Rachel Ross

A compelling gothic fairytale by bruja and award-winning writer Maria DeBlassie.

The women of Sueño, New Mexico don’t know how to live a life without sorrows. That’s La Llorona’s doing. She roams the waterways looking for the next generation of girls to baptize, filling them with more tears than any woman should have to hold. And there’s not much they can do about the Weeping Woman except to avoid walking along the riverbank at night and to try to keep their sadness in check. That’s what attracts her to them: the pain and heartache that gets passed down from one generation of women to the next.

Mercy knows this, probably better than anyone. She lost her best friend to La Llorona and almost found a watery grave herself. But she survived. Only she didn’t come back quite right and she knows La Llorona won’t be satisfied until she drags the one soul that got away back to the bottom of the river.

In a battle for her life, Mercy fights to break the chains of generational trauma and reclaim her soul free from ancestral hauntings by turning to the only things that she knows can save her: plant medicine, pulp books, and the promise of a love so strong not even La Llorona can stop it from happening. What unfolds is a stunning tale of one woman’s journey into magic, healing, and rebirth.

Every hospital had at least one—a Dr. D—or the equivalent thereof. The thread which strung them into the same category was their absolute flawlessness. Gender varied from place to place, but at Eastport General the physician in question was a man:
Dr. Desmond Danielson had all the tools necessary for an evening of pure pleasure…
The suave demeanor.
The pearly white smile.
The full head of hair, nary a strand out of place. Not even a tornado could best his style.
He played sports.
He saved lives.
He won trophies and awards.
He was well-read, well-established, and in any clothes other than a medical coat with a stethoscope draped around his neck instead of a scarf, he would have appeared too young for the job. No one even truly knew his age. No one cared.
Everyone loved him. And, of course, he was hotter than the tropics on a blustery afternoon during the peak of summer.
There was only one problem: all that perfection only lasted for one night.

Midnight Masquerade (The Brightley Sisters Book 1) by Halley Larkin
Genre – Historical Romance, Historical Fiction, Women’s Fiction
Page Count – 315
Cover Designer – JS Designs
Charmaine Brightley will soon lose her place in the world. Her father is ill and when he passes, a distant male cousin will inherit the family estate. In the meantime, London society flocks to Charmaine’s lavish parties and gaming tables, all designed to raise money for the “deserving” poor. If the ton ever discovered the true beneficiaries of their philanthropy, the revelation would ruin Charmaine and shame her family.
Not that Charmaine cares what anyone thinks. Ever since her devastating first season, she has given up on love. As far as Charmaine is concerned, passion is a ridiculous dream, meant only for the young and foolish. Until a dashing stranger appears at her midsummer masquerade.
After an ill-fated duel, Duke Konstantin “Kosta” Rostov was forced to abandon Russia for England. For a man accustomed to privilege and power, nothing is worse than indentured servitude to a cruel stepfather. Determined to restore both his reputation and that of the family he shamed, Kosta sneaks away to a masquerade ball at Cortwood Manor, where he meets the alluring Charmaine Brightley.
For years, Kosta restricted his amorous affairs to women who were discreet, worldly, and married. Despite the thrilling connection between them, Kosta understands he has no place in Lady Charmaine’s life. When his stepfather sends him back to Cortwood, however, Kosta can’t resist the opportunity to see her one more time. Even if it means spying on her for his stepfather. Even if he must continue to hide his true identity.
Reunited, Kosta and Charmaine find their mutual desire catches fire. But Kosta’s stepfather has his own reasons for pushing them together. And those plans could destroy Charmaine Brightley, the woman who has finally captured Kosta’s heart.

I write historical romance with contemporary attitude. My forthcoming series features free-spirited sisters facing the loss of an estate they love, but cannot inherit. Along the way, their fates are entangled with those of a disgraced duke, a missing heir, and a brash young earl: gentlemen with passion in their hearts and complicated pasts. Think Downton Abbey meets Bridgerton with a hint of magic in the mix. 🙂

As a reader, I can’t resist witty novels with sexual tension, dark secrets, and suspenseful twists. My favorite authors include Courtney Milan, Philippa Gregory, Alyssa Cole, Gillian Flynn, George R.R. Martin, and Lisa See. When I’m not reading or writing, you might find me planning a costume for the next San Diego Comic-Con. I live in California with a spoiled tabby cat named Jonesy.

Mary Bleckwehl believes words matter. As a children’s writer she uses them to challenge readers to not just imagine a better world but to take action to make it so. Passionate about promoting literacy, Bleckwehl works to inspire young readers and writers to dream big and look for opportunities to take on challenges that will expand their awareness of the complex world they live in.

Bleckwehl grew up in an Iowa farm home with few books but a trove of experiences that are the foundation of her writing. As a writer, she draws on those farm kid experiences as well as her years of parenting and teaching. Bleckwehl’s three award-winning picture books, Henry you’re late AGAIN! Henry you’re hungry AGAIN? and Claire’s Hair showcase the humor and empathy she sees in children. She craves variety and thus writes non-fiction and for the middle grade audience as well. The Birthday Cookbook released in 2021 and is Bleckwehl’s fun and easy recipe book for kids who enjoy spending time in the kitchen. Her debut middle grade novel, The Worry Knot (January release) and four non-fiction books (in the Awesome Disgusting Careers series, September release) are available for readers in 2022.

Bleckwehl graduated from Wartburg College and received her M.S. in Educational Management from Lesley University in Boston. She lives in Northfield, Minnesota where she taught school. Together with her husband, she raised three children, a few unruly pets, and plenty of garden weeds. When she’s not dreaming up a new book idea, Bleckwehl can be found presenting to book lovers in schools, libraries and conferences or enjoying a peaceful pontoon ride with family.
