Even I know that’s wishful thinking. My agent would hunt me down. I am contracted for another book, after all.

But when my best friend is murdered in cold blood, writing is the last thing on my mind. The only thing keeping me standing is the woman investigating my friend’s murder. Officer Lyric Sharpe. She’s stunning. I can’t stop thinking about her. Before I know it, I become the sole focus of my friend’s murderer’s attention. And never in a million years would I have guessed who it is.

Book excerpt: Joe Pappalardo's Inferno tells the true story of the men who flew the deadliest missions of World War II, and an unlikely hero who received the Medal of Honor in the midst of the bloodiest military campaign in aviation history. There’s no higher accolade in the U.S. military than the Medal of Honor, and 472 people received it for their action during World War II. But only one was demoted right after: Maynard Harrison Smith. Smith is one of the most unlikely heroes of the war, where he served in B-17s during the early days of the bombing of France and Germany from England. From his juvenile delinquent past in Michigan, through the war and during the decades after, Smith’s life seemed to be a series of very public missteps. The other airmen took to calling the 5-foot, 5-inch airman “Snuffy” after an unappealing movie character. This is also the man who, on a tragically mishandled mission over France on May 1, 1943, single-handedly saved the crewmen in his stricken B-17. With every other gunner injured or bailed out, Smith stood alone in the fuselage of a shattered, nameless bomber and fought fires, treated wounded crew and fought off fighters. His ordeal is part of a forgotten mission that aircrews came to call the May Day Massacre. The skies over Europe in 1943 were a charnel house for U.S. pilots, who were being led by tacticians surprised by the brutal effectiveness of German defenses. By May 1943 the combat losses among bomb crews were a staggering 40 to 50 percent. The backdrop of Smith’s story intersects with some of the luminaries of aviation history, including Curtis Lemay, Ira Eaker and “Hap” Arnold, during critical times of their storied careers. Inferno also examines Smith’s life in a new, comprehensive light, through the use of exclusive interviews of those who knew him (including fellow MOH recipients and family) as well as public and archival records. This is both a thrilling and horrifying story of the air war over Europe during WWII and a fascinating look at one of America's forgotten heroes.

Until I’m sent on an undercover mission with my best friend. Lieutenant Matt Chance. The man owns my heart and doesn’t even know it.

Book excerpt: Continuing the Deep Space Nine saga—an original novel from New York Times bestselling author Judith Reeves-Stevens! Now begins the final battle of the Prophets and the Pah-wraiths within the nightmarish realm of nonlinear time—as the greatest epic adventure in the saga of Deep Space 9tm—reaches its staggering conclusion... As predicted in ancient Bajoran texts, the Celestial Temple has been restored, ending normal space-time existence for all except Captain Benjamin Sisko and those trapped on the Starship Defiant and the Klingon warship Boreth. But as apocalyptic war rages between the Prophets and the Pah-wraiths, one last chance for survival beckons—a return to Deep Space 9. Yet, in the realm of nonlinear time, it appears that there are two possible times at which Sisko and his allies can turn to the station: on the day of the Cardassian Withdrawal, or on the day six years later when DS9 Was destroyed. But which choice will lead to the triumph of the Prophets? And which to eternal victory for the Pah-wraiths? With time literally running out and the fate of the universe in his hands, Sisko now must confront his own personal inferno-in order to change the past and restore the present, he must be ready to make the ultimate sacrifice...his future...

What I was not doing was looking to ever fall in love again. And then Matt came along and wouldn’t leave me alone. It was my own fault. I turned to him in the midst of one of the worst panic attacks I had ever had in my life, and he refused to let me go. My past came back to haunt me when my father decided that fifteen hundred miles of distance was still too close. He was one of the reasons I left, but it wasn’t enough. Now, I have to wonder if Matt will really stick by me, or if he’ll be the reason I fall into a darkness I can never come back from. ~ This book is a steamy cop romance with heavy and detailed mental health themes and may not be suitable for all readers. ~

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My whole life, I knew I was different. Hell, everyone did. I never came out as a gay man to my family, but I didn’t have to. They knew and didn’t accept it. And they never missed an opportunity to shove their religion in my face or tell me what a sinner I was. I took off when I was sixteen and lived on the streets of Dallas, Texas, for a while before the local chapter of Viper’s Venom took me in. Years later, after being personally appointed to the President position of my chapter by the President of the entire crew himself, I couldn’t help but think about how it was the biggest middle finger I could give my parents. The only thing I thought was worth loving was my club. They took a chance on me. I’d lay my life down for them. But then, a brown-haired, doe-eyed angel in disguise crashes into my world and burns all of my walls to the ground. Drake, despite him being twenty years my junior, quickly becomes my entire world. I can’t imagine my heart beating without him by my side. I should really know better, though. Men like me don’t have happily ever afters. So, I should have seen it coming when my darkness envelops the man who owns my soul…

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After suffering a career ending knee injury, I’m forced to retire from the Chicago Guardians, the pro NFL team I’ve played with for fifteen years. To say it was heartbreaking is the understatement of the century. Even though I’ve had a great career, I find my way back to my hometown of Brystone Springs, Texas. Brystone Springs University, where I’ve taken a coaching job, is where the trouble begins. I didn’t know that one of the team's All-Stars is the man I had a mind-blowing one-night stand with when I first got back to town. Now, I have to see him every damn day. Kody Remington. He’s stubborn, sassy, and intoxicating as hell. His looks and memories of that night haunt me every waking and sleeping moment. His attitude, though, is appalling and makes me want to take him over my knee. I can’t touch him again, though. Not if I want to keep my job, and he wants to stay in school. One day, everything changes. Suddenly, I don’t give a damn about the consequences. I know we both need each other. What I don’t know is if our intense feelings for one another are strong enough to save us both from forces I don’t even understand.

Book excerpt: From one of our finest military historians, a monumental work that shows us at once the truly global reach of World War II and its deeply personal consequences. World War II involved tens of millions of soldiers and cost sixty million lives—an average of twenty-seven thousand a day. For thirty-five years, Max Hastings has researched and written about different aspects of the war. Now, for the first time, he gives us a magnificent, single-volume history of the entire war. Through his strikingly detailed stories of everyday people—of soldiers, sailors and airmen; British housewives and Indian peasants; SS killers and the citizens of Leningrad, some of whom resorted to cannibalism during the two-year siege; Japanese suicide pilots and American carrier crews—Hastings provides a singularly intimate portrait of the world at war. He simultaneously traces the major developments—Hitler’s refusal to retreat from the Soviet Union until it was too late; Stalin’s ruthlessness in using his greater population to wear down the German army; Churchill’s leadership in the dark days of 1940 and 1941; Roosevelt’s steady hand before and after the United States entered the war—and puts them in real human context. Hastings also illuminates some of the darker and less explored regions under the war’s penumbra, including the conflict between the Soviet Union and Finland, during which the Finns fiercely and surprisingly resisted Stalin’s invading Red Army; and the Bengal famine in 1943 and 1944, when at least one million people died in what turned out to be, in Nehru’s words, “the final epitaph of British rule” in India. Remarkably informed and wide-ranging, Inferno is both elegantly written and cogently argued. Above all, it is a new and essential understanding of one of the greatest and bloodiest events of the twentieth century.

Land of the free. My dream. Home. As far away from all of my tormentors and bullies as I can possibly be. An entire six thousand mile ocean between us. Gainesville, Florida, is a city where I can begin to heal from the scars of my past. A chance encounter with the dangerously sexy Captain DJ Rens of the Gainesville Police Department threatens to derail all of my plans. I wanted to start over. I hadn’t intended on the wickedly tantalizing, ungodly commanding, frustratingly enticing man to bulldoze my walls to the ground. But happily ever after has never existed in my world. When my past crashes into the safety of the world I built, all of the walls DJ broke through are quickly fortified. DJ is everything I’ve ever wanted, but I’m terrified of getting hurt. Avoiding that level of pain might be worth letting the love DJ promises with his actions and words slip away... ~ This book is a steamy, age gap, cop romance with heavily detailed mental health themes and mentions of physical violence, bullying and SA (not perpetrated by MC) from FMC’s past.

Book excerpt: Tyler E. Boudreau is a twelve-year veteran of the Marine Corps infantry. He trained and committed himself physically and intellectually to the military life. Then his intense devotion began to disintegrate, bit by bit, during his final mission in Iraq. After returning home, he discovered a turmoil developing in his mind, estranging him from his loved ones and the bill of goods he eagerly purchased as a marine officer. Packing Inferno is the spectacularly written story of the ordeal of a marine officer in battle and then coming home. It is the struggle with a society resistant to understand the true nature of war. It is the fight with combat stress and an exploration into the process of recovery. It is the search for conscience, family, and ultimately for one's essential self. Here are the reflections of a man built by the Marine Corps, disassembled by war, and left with no guidance to rebuild himself. This is Tyler E. Boudreau's first book. He currently lives in western Massachusetts, where he works with other veterans on many projects related to war.

Book excerpt: Inferno Sphere. A bomb to end all bombs. The ruthless species of biomechanical aliens known as Vraxar have been driven away from the Confederation planet Atlantis. They are not defeated and their unprovoked attack has given them the means to locate the rest of the Confederation worlds. However, the Vraxar are not predictable and their next move is completely unforeseen. This time, the Juniper orbital is the target. Lieutenant Eric McKinney is onboard, waiting for his next deployment. The arrival of the Vraxar pushes him once more into action and he finds himself in the unenviable position of fighting a battle which is already lost. There is a chance to pull off a victory of sorts – to come back from the brink of total disaster. McKinney must once again team up with Captain Charlie Blake to try and inflict a stunning, unexpected defeat on the Vraxar. It will not be easy. Meanwhile, out on the fringes of Confederation Space further trouble is brewing, adding complications to an already perilous situation. Where there is conflict, there is opportunity. The opening stages of the war have begun and humanity will not sit back tamely and wait for death. Alliances must be formed and ancient, terrible weapons brought out of storage.

Book excerpt: The planet HELLHOLE, devastated by an ancient asteroid impact, is inhabited by only the hardiest and most desperate colonists. It is one of 54 remote frontier worlds forced to pay tribute to the corrupt Constellation, which is ruled by decadent nobles. An exiled rebel general, Tiber Adolphus, has now mounted a second rebellion against the Constellation, much larger than his earlier failed attempt. This time Adolphus aligns himself with the Xayans, a resurrected alien race from Hellhole. As the ancient civilization awakens, the Xayans encourage colonists to immerse themselves in strange "slickwater" pools and acquire ancient alien memories. Their goal is to gather sufficient numbers to achieve ala'ru, an accelerated evolution that will transform them into godlike beings. General Adolphus rallies his fellow rebels from across the vast Deep Zone to fight for their independence, while the ruthless leader of the Constellation, Diadem Michella, vows to eradicate the rebellion and all colonists on Hellhole. The Xayans add their "telemancy" defenses to the General's conventional military resources, until they reveal an enemy far more terrifying than the Army of the Constellation: a faction of rogue Xayans bent on the extermination of their race . . . and the destruction of any planet that happens to be in the way. As a barrage of deadly asteroids hurtles toward Hellhole, and the Constellation's gigantic space fleet arrives for a final engagement against General Adolphus, the hardy settlers are caught between a human enemy that wants to raze their colony to the ground and much more powerful aliens who can destroy not only themselves, but human civilization, as well as the foundations of the universe itself.

Book excerpt: “A literary tour de force that is destined to become one of the . . . definitive works about the battle for Guadalcanal . . . [James D.] Hornfischer deftly captures the essence of the most pivotal naval campaign of the Pacific war.”—San Antonio Express-News The Battle of Guadalcanal has long been heralded as a Marine victory. Now, with his powerful portrait of the Navy’s sacrifice, James D. Hornfischer tells for the first time the full story of the men who fought in destroyers, cruisers, and battleships in the narrow, deadly waters of “Ironbottom Sound.” Here, in stunning cinematic detail, are the seven major naval actions that began in August 1942, a time when the war seemed unwinnable and America fought on a shoestring, with the outcome always in doubt. Working from new interviews with survivors, unpublished eyewitness accounts, and newly available documents, Hornfischer paints a vivid picture of the officers and enlisted men who opposed the Japanese in America’s hour of need. The first major work on this subject in almost two decades, Neptune’s Inferno does what all great battle narratives do: It tells the gripping human stories behind the momentous events and critical decisions that altered the course of history and shaped so many lives. Praise for Neptune’s Inferno “Vivid and engaging . . . extremely readable, comprehensive and thoroughly researched.”—Ronald Spector, The Wall Street Journal “Superlative storytelling . . . the masterwork on the long-neglected topic of World War II’s surface ship combat.”—Richard B. Frank, World War II “The author’s two previous World War II books . . . thrust him into the major leagues of American military history writers. Neptune’s Inferno is solid proof he deserves to be there.”—The Dallas Morning News “Outstanding . . . The author’s narrative gifts and excellent choice of detail give an almost Homeric quality to the men who met on the sea in steel titans.”—Booklist (starred review) “Brilliant . . . a compelling narrative of naval combat . . . simply superb.”—The Washington Times

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The California Lectura Dantis is the long-awaited companion to the three-volume verse translation by Allen Mandelbaum of Dante's Divine Comedy. Mandelbaum's translation, with facing original text and with illustrations by Barry Moser, has been praised by Robert Fagles as "exactly what we have waited for these years, a Dante with clarity, eloquence, terror, and profoundly moving depths," and by the late James Merrill as "lucid and strong . . . with rich orchestration . . . overall sweep and felicity . . . and countless free, brilliant, utterly Dantesque strokes." Charles Simic called the work "a miracle. A lesson in the art of translation and a model (an encyclopedia) for poets. The full range and richness of American English is displayed as perhaps never before." This collection of commentaries on the first part of the Comedy consists of commissioned essays, one for each canto, by a distinguished group of international scholar-critics. Readers of Dante will find this Inferno volume an enlightening and indispensable guide, the kind of lucid commentary that is truly adapted to the general reader as well as the student and scholar.
