Our Last Chance by Bob Keaton

Our Last Chance by Bob Keaton

What happens when the old college gang—many of whom haven’t seen each other in 20 years—get together for a weekend?
Tommy, their host, is leaving the country, but he hasn’t told anybody why. That—and a lot more—gets revealed during the last barbecue at Peckerwood, his plantation south of Atlanta. He bought the decaying Southern relic 10 years ago and put a lot of money into the restoration. Now he is ready to show it off. So, he invited the old college gang for the weekend, hoping to relive some memories and maybe even create a few new ones, as he sees his friends for the last time.
Lovingly referred to as “the family,” the gang includes a soap opera star from Los Angeles with a colorful past love life; a prominent Seattle attorney still trying to overcome damage done by one of the guys back in college; an evangelist from Charleston whose ministry is based on getting high on drugs instead of Jesus; a famous New York actress with a mysterious past; and a well-known model from the 70s who now has his own agency. Everybody’s favorite professor back in college who was always there to listen to their problems shows up, but now he needs someone to listen to him.
During the weekend old rivalries are reignited. Secrets get revealed. A young guy meets his birth mother for the first time and discovers who his dad is. Old love interests get rekindled. One member of the group reveals a sex change that nobody knew about. Oh, and there’s a murder, but who, and who did it?

Jewels of the Crown

About Jewels of the Crown:

As he led the king’s wagon train through the coastal muck of Norfolk’s eastern shore, Norman Gervase found himself engulfed by the tidal surge that swallowed up the entire caravan.
But he was unwavering in his dedication to the king, a principled man of faith, and loyal in his obligations.
So, when he realized that all would soon be gone forever, he acted with alacrity and removed the trunks containing the crown jewels and secured them to one of the sturdy draft horses to prevent their irretrievable loss.
That was just the beginning.
He did not know that this feat of selflessness would initiate a life-long journey into a world of thirteenth century intrigue in his quest to preserve King John’s treasure.
Eight hundred years later, the organization that Gervase had founded, the Patriciate, continued to maintain the founder’s guiding desire for secrecy until the macabre slaying of a prominent attorney and the deciphering of a fifteenth century map brought the Patriciate into the crosshairs of both law enforcement and historians.
No one knew what conundrums lay buried beneath the dust of the ages, or to what extent a foray taken by three resolute sleuths would expose into a covert world of pseudo-occultists.

One Night With Finnbar by Leo D’Lance

One Night With Finnbar by Leo D'Lance

One Night With Finnbar by Leo D’Lance is the story of two men; Martin Atwater and Finnbar, a bondservant.
This tale of revenge, blackmail, betrayal, and murder is set in the Georgian era of 1767, in London, England where the infraction of any of the over 160 laws in the Bloody Code could see a man hanged.
It begins when Martin visits his uncle’s country estate where he discovers a strikingly handsome stable boy; a bondservant called Finnbar. Martin’s uncle has secured a commission for him in the Royal Fusiliers, and he convinces his uncle to allow him to take Finnbar along to be trained as his orderly.
Back in London, waiting for the commencement of his enlistment, Martin grows bored and restless. He quickly falls back into his old routine of drinking, gambling, and a barely closeted homosexual lifestyle. It’s only a matter of time before it all catches up with him.
Finnbar is forced to live by his own resources when he is turned away from the posh gentlemen’s club where Martin is staying. But London is unforgiving for an innocent country boy, and Finnbar must quickly learn how to navigate this dangerously unfamiliar world.
Just as Martin’s plans for escaping his ill-spent past seem to be coming together, Edmond Mattox, a sinister figure from his boarding school days, appears on the scene to exact revenge and settle an old score.
To satisfy his blackmailer’s demands, Martin sacrifices Finnbar. But Martin has a score of his own to settle, and in a fit of rage, he murders Mattox.
But who will pay the price?

Juxtapositions from the Good Vibe Lounge

About Juxtapositions from the Good Vibe Lounge:

Set in Central New Jersey, the Good Vibe Trilogy is a coming-of-age story following the lives of two young people raised in diverse yet dysfunctional environments during the late 1970s. When their lives connect, it impacts the destinies of their friends and family over a forty-year span.

Volume One, The Paradise We Create, introduces Andrew ‘Drew’ Reubens. As a teen, he is a girl-crazy, self-involved kid at the center of a clique of performing arts geeks. One of the many females in his sphere is unfiltered and misunderstood Alyona ‘Yoyo’ Zalenkov, being raised in a rural cult environment with warped family values.

The result of their unlikely relationship is represented in the modern-day events of the story, as Andrew hosts a celebration at his Central Jersey establishment, The Good Vibe Lounge. When the younger generation of his family expresses a desire to understand more about their back story, Andrew pivots, between modern times and 1977, his climactic senior year of High School to weave the story of Drew and Yoyo… and a collection of characterful events and relationships along the way.

With the help of some of his oldest friends, Andrew takes a tour of the often comedic, sometimes tragic.. but all-so-typical journey of adolescents faced with the transition to life as adults in the real world.

The Good Vibe saga is a forty-year history of characters who navigate thru the wonders, challenges, and destiny of human interplay. Along the way, they take on these dynamics, with juxtaposed tales of adolescent frivolity, dysfunctional family, enduring friendship, the depth of romance and sensuous love, criminal behavior, deception, success, failure, the thrill of knowledge, personal progression, and… a good dose of recovering from regrets.

And ultimately seeking to balance ‘what might have been’ with everything happening at the place where reality meets up with all of it… for a reason.

The Auction by Elci North

The Auction by Elci North

On sale for $2.99!
In a society where babies have become a source of government income, laws designed to push up the birth rate are enacted that strip women of the most basic of human rights: The right to choose when to have a child, the right to choose who to marry, and the right to raise her biological child.
Logical computer programmer Jane overindulges at a graduation party, winds up pregnant, and is forced to marry a near-stranger. Drama queen Angelica bets a gay guy in a bar that he couldn’t “do it with a woman.” Pregnant Angelica loses her job and the love of her life. And after 13 years of trying, Millie finally conceives, but sitting vigil at her severely injured husband’s bedside takes priority. Fifteen-year-old Wendy loves school and art, but an ex-convict breaks the glass from her window and rapes her.
Their paths cross when they are sentenced to the same pregnancy prison. But as lawmakers know, putting women together can lead to ideas. Ideas that could end the baby auction and bring down the government.

“Four women use their skills, along with the help of sympathetic men, to hatch a plan to set things right. Readers will toggle between rage and hope as they immerse themselves in North’s meticulous worldbuilding that exposes the hypocrisy and illogic of brutal government policies, stifling bureaucracy, and government censorship. North crafts a memorable and emotional thrill ride through an unnerving society with intelligent and inspirational characters who strive to create their own destiny.” Booklife Review

The Chess Queen – codex 1

About The Chess Queen – codex 1:

Theophano is a young woman living a peaceful and sheltered life among people who love her. Her father raises her as an equal to his sons and his only ambition for her is to be happy. However, everything will suddenly change when she is forced to move to a distant and inhospitable foreign land where she will have to face insults, challenges, and grave dangers. Will she find the strength to survive, or will she be lost in the darkness of the Middle Ages among people who hate her?
This novel is set in the second half of the tenth century (950-999) and moves between history and myth. It follows a basic historical framework, but most of it is fiction. My inspiration was the life of a great Greek Byzantine woman who became queen of a big Western Empire and managed to influence European civilization like no other. She was the woman that became the Queen of chess.
