Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was it a glitch in time or was it fate? As a quiet, studious young lady loved by her students, being a college professor suited Brielle Riley perfectly. She prefers to live her adventures through the pages of a book. With a strict mother and a distant father, she bonded mostly with her grandparents and her younger brother. Going along perfectly fine, until summoned by her grandmother to the family's estate in Louisiana, Brielle Riley, has no idea that everything she knows about herself is about to change. A businessman from the north, Greyson Hunter feels like a fish out of water while visiting his mother's family in the south. With talk of secession at every turn, he walks with care. Growing up believing he has an arranged fiancé in France does not really concern him until he unexpectedly meets her. Although they had never actually officially met, he had seen her before. The thing was, he had always thought she was a ghost. Can two people, one out of place and one out of time, find a common ground? A place where roses grow in winter and love blooms across the boundaries of time? An emotional and touching romance with a happily-ever-after that spans the centuries. The first in a gripping new time travel series by the author of The Becquerels including best selling time travel romance Twist of Fate.

Book excerpt: Wintertime at the orchard has Peter learning some important lessons about speaking up in this second novel of a sweet series about the bonds of friendship. Blanketed in snow, the orchard looks like a magical wonderland. But Peter is not so charmed by his new life. He just can’t ignore how he’s always ignored any longer. Sarah, Lizzie, and Olive are always talking over him and bossing him around. And on top of that, it’s really cold outside. One January day, Peter reluctantly agrees to join the girls on a carriage ride through the freshly fallen snow. But things go terribly wrong when a dog incident has the horses running away in fear, with Peter and the carriage trailing dangerously behind them. Then, Peter hits his head on a passing branch and is thrown to the ground. Woozy, Peter wakes up alone in the snow but he makes his way to a cozy cottage. Kai, the cool new kid, opens the door and welcomes Peter inside. Kai shows him a magical mirror that brings the two new friends to another world. A world where people listen to Peter and need his help to defeat dragons, warlocks, and other scary things. Then Peter wakes up in the hospital with a bandage around his head. Everyone is so happy to see him awake. Peter tries to tell them all about the mirror but they dismiss his experience as a wild dream. When Peter goes back to school, it seems like Kai knows what Peter’s talking about. Could the dream have been real? Is there really a magic portal deep in the woods behind the orchard? Even if everyone thinks he’s crazy, Peter is determined to find out.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The national bestselling author of the beloved Mithgar fantasies, Dennis L. McKiernan continues his enchanting seasonal fairytale cycle with a spellbinding story of love and legend. Once upon an autumn eve, a wounded knight named Sieur Luc rides into the Autumnwood—and into the heart of Liaze, Princess of that demesne. Liaze soon discovers that Sieur Luc is not an ordinary knight, but a man with a secret past—a past not even he knows, filled with enemies he does not suspect and allies he has not seen. And even as love blooms between Luc and Liaze, dark forces snatch him away. The Fates themselves intervene—but the Fates are bound by rules of their own, and can only give guidance in riddles and spoken enigmas. Even so, alone and grimly determined, Liaze sets out on a desperate quest to follow the trail of her true love. But no tracks whatsoever mark the way, and for guidance, she has only arcane words and the way of her heart. “Dennis L. McKiernan always manages to enchant his readers with his fabulous fantasy novels . . . Readers will not be disappointed with this beautiful adult fairy tale.”—Midwest Book Review

THE LADY IN THE RED DRESS When Airplane Maintenance Engineer Supervisor Chloé Lewis meets her boss's grandson, he mistakes her for someone else. Certainly, not the maintenance engineer. He mistakes her for a socialite. Perhaps she should tell him. Maybe she will. Maybe after just one night of pretending to be someone who belonged in his world... ON THE EDGE OF CHANCE Flight attendant Brooklyn Johnson made her own way in the world. She had her reasons for striking out on her own, avoiding the family business—the very successful family business. Nonetheless, she does not stray far from her family business—aviation. SEALED WITH A KISS Bailey Winters unexpectedly inherited a house from her maiden aunt on Mackinac Island. Since Bailey worked from home, she was unable to come up with a good reason why she should not just live there. At least for now. When an old friend of her aunt's calls looking to book a room for an employee, Bailey feels obligated to help out. Her aunt, after all, would have done it. And it was only six months. But when Cody, her old boyfriend from college turns out to be that friend, six months suddenly seems like a very long time. KISS ME AT MIDNIGHT Kendal Johnson visits New York for her best friend's wedding only to find that her best friend's fiance's brother—who just so happened to be Charlotte's ex-boyfriend cannot make the wedding. Not that she did not want to see him. Not that at all. A long time ago and nothing had changed. THE HEART KNOWS The granddaughter of multi-billionaire Noah Worthington, Alexandria Johnson never thought she would see her secret college crush again. Maybe she would see him at her brother's wedding. They were best friends after all. When she happens to land in Daniel's hometown, he picks her up at the airport. She never knew he had been crushing on her, too.
