Age Category: Adult

Length: 478 Pages

About the Book:

Some things are worse than death… Or high school

Xenia Findlay should be dead—just like her parents, and her best friend Bethany. After the crash, she moves to the tranquil small town of Porter Valley to live with her great aunt. But her recovery is plagued by terrible headaches…and hallucinatory visits from her dead friend.

Worse, the students of Porter Valley High have begun to disappear.

As the missing teenagers join Bethany in Xenia’s visions she begins to suspect that everything she thought she knew—about the world, about death, and about herself—is wrong.

Which means a ghastly force really is lurking in the shadows of her idyllic new home.

And unless Xenia can unlock the power she’s discovered, she might just lose herself, her town—and her very soul.

About the Author:

Russell Isler was born in Champaign, Illinois. As a child, his fate was sealed the evening his parents took him to see Star Wars. Practically obsessed with spaceships, robots and dragons for his entire life, he pursued a career in animation. After a couple decades jumping between the video game and commercial television VFX fields he stumbled into a new group of friends, who went on to create the award winning Adventures of the League of S.T.E.A.M. web-series. In addition to becoming head of VFX for the League, Russell also acted in several of the episodes. The League also gave him his first taste of writing. His writing on the series finale won “Best Screenplay” in the 2017 Dublin Web Festival. By then he realized that he’d had so much fun writing those screenplays that he should probably write down that book idea that had been living in the back of his head.

About the Book:

From award-winning author Aurora Alba comes a fresh romantic comedy about the antics that ensue when Will Jessup starts a sexy all-male cleaning service catering to bored Jackson Hole housewives.

But Will doesn’t just clean lonely women’s houses half-naked for the thrill of it. He’s a single dad in a small — but expensive — town whose spirited young daughter has racked up a mountain of medical debt. No stranger to performing manual labor for the upper echelon, Will sees an untapped market with infinite potential and high demand. Why not use it to give his daughter a better life?

Ava Quinn believes in love, even though it always seems to take an almost comical detour around her. With the ruins of her failed marriage in her rear-view, at least Ava can thrust herself head-first into her job in finance. That is, until her sassy best friend hires a handsome hunk in a tear-away policeman’s costume to dust off Ava’s cobwebs. With Will deep cleaning, flustered Ava botches her video conference regarding a new multi-million-dollar acquisition further nose-diving her life into chaos.

When Will tries to make the disastrous encounter up to Ava, their feelings begin to blossom. But modern dating in the Grand Tetons isn’t easy and love is never squeaky clean. In this fresh, new series full of love, lust, and laundry, you can expect a wild ride of romantic mishaps, meddling besties, and blush-worthy spice. Join Will and Ava for the flirty, laugh-out-loud beginning of what is sure to be a booming new business.

The Man Maid series is recommended for fans of Meghan Quinn, Lucy Score, & Pippa Grant and features workplace romance, men in uniform, single dad, small town, he falls first, and cinnamon roll contemporary romance tropes.

Even after a man is found hanging from the ceiling of an abandoned hospital, covered head to foot in bite marks—marks like the ones Jai, her boyfriend, leaves on her—Trinity can’t seem to distance herself. Not from Owensboro. Not from Jai or the secret spot in the forest where something watches her from the trees, fat with sacrifice. Things are spiraling dangerously out of control, and Trinity is in her favourite place: right in the thick of it.

Book Details:

Title: The First Sin by Cheyenne Brammah
Genre: Science Fantasy
Age Category: Adult
Format: Hardcover/Paperback/Ebook
Length: 668 pages
Publication Date: October 23, 2025

About the Book:

In the sweeping expanse of the Årdrakin Empire, the people fight and die for honor as elite warriors of the galaxy. But long ago, a prophecy was spoken that presaged the apocalypse. Everyone knows and fears the truth: one day, the empire will fall.

Tårik is a guard for small, independent Clan Tsinna. Instead of pondering the end of his civilization, Tårik’s greatest concern is maintaining his honor while escorting a group of impertinent dignitaries across the treacherous Barren Gale. When the Mother Goddess speaks a passage from the prophecy to him, he has the good sense to be frightened, but he doesn’t heed the significance of Her visit.

Then disaster strikes, and Tårik is branded as an exile, leaving him with no home, no honor, and no future. Forced into a desperate struggle for survival, all Tårik can focus on is living just one more day until luck—or maybe fate—gives him the opportunity to join a new clan. But even this is fraught with danger and uncertainty, and it takes him to an inhospitable world far from the empire where survival seems all but impossible.

Faced with new challenges, including trying to navigate first contact with the low-tech locals, Tårik believes the prophecy can’t reach him. Yet it continues to loom, signaling that his fate and the fate of the empire are irrevocably entwined.

This is a dark, spicy, adult science fantasy set in a world that includes war, violence, and other mature themes that some readers may find disturbing. Reading guidance can be found at the beginning of the book or on the author’s website.

Book Details:

Title: Performances of a Death Metal Bard by Rob Leigh
Genre: Fantasy, Horror
Age Category: Adult
Format: Paperback/Ebook
Length: 146 Pages
Publication Date: October 31, 2024

About the Book:

Unfortunately, Death Metal doesn’t get much play in this sleepy, peaceful, actually kind of boring kingdom. Of course not. It’s tough inventing a genre on your own, and it doesn’t help when all the instruments you’ve tried up to this point don’t match the brutality necessary for a dark and heavy performance.

My coin only seems to be enough to get me to the next run-down village, and it’s dwindling fast.

To make matters worse, my newest lute is not normal. It never stays in tune, it’s barely holding together, and it keeps whispering to me. Over and over, demands for vengeance and murder echo in my head, with the promise that I’ll find the sound I need if I just listen to the voices.

So what’s a starving bard to do?

Performances of a Death Metal Bard is a brutal fantasy adventure inspired by The Witcher and Metalocalypse, merging the episodic travels of a musical elf with the darkness, blood, and raw riffs of the heaviest metal the kingdom has ever seen.

About the Author:

These stories expanded into epic and dark fantasy tales rife with danger, action, humor, and heart. Whether you’re a metalhead, a fan of fantasy, or a lover of gripping tales, Leigh’s books are ready to welcome you on a pulse-pounding journey.

About the Book:

Welcome to the Shifting Lands.

Silluka was born with only one arm and could never practice the exacting motions to summon the favor of the gods. Caught stealing, she is forced to test her powers or be branded an outcast. She fails, and loses citizenship to her village.

In a fit of desperation, Silluka tries to steal a badge of citizenship from a mysterious elder, but instead, Elder Quilqi shows Silluka a different path to gain the powers of the gods, aided by an octopus-like technological wizard who worships their own eldritch divinities. Time is short for training however, because a new island is speeding toward the coastal town, throwing deadly hurricanes and tidal waves before it and threatening all who live there.

Only the gods and godlike storm warriors protect the village from destruction, but all of them fail when a mysterious creature bursts through the wall. It’s only one forerunner for a species of terrifying turtlemen: fast, deadly, and ready to invade the larger island. The village must flee inland before the invasion, while Silluka is weighed down by her outcast status and her brother’s failing abilities. To save herself, her family, and her village, Silluka must overcome stigma and self-doubt. She must learn the scope of the world outside her village. She must learn Physical Magic.
