She is pretty big and obviously has no fear with how close she gets to me. Not sure how I am going to make it up to her. . This could get ugly.

Savannah is about to burn, so what’s a girl with wings and a tattoo machine to do?
When Katie Bishop is asked to join an elite society that guards Savannah against all the supernatural riffraff in town, she can’t refuse. Especially when the city’s latest threat has targeted her to help it escape from an ancient book it’s been imprisoned in for over a century. You see, Katie isn’t your average girl — she’s a bit of a beast and owns a tattoo shop at the edge of town. She’s also the only person who can tattoo a magical symbol on the demon’s back that will set it free for good — and live to tell about it.
Trying to run a business and keep her secrets intact, Katie’s life is complicated enough. The easy thing would be to just apply the tattoo and be done with it, but there’s just one problem — the demon plans to open the crossroads and let all hell break loose.
With the help of her best friend, Lady Sugar — the Queen of Savannah with hoodoo in her blood, and a coven of eclectic witches, they’ll fight to save their city. No shrinking violets here. Katie and crew have plenty of heart and grit, and Sugar will have you rolling! Typical urban fantasy? Not exactly.

Triumphant to the Last (the Jacobite Battle for Scotland Book 2)
by John Marshall
Genre: Historical Fiction | War
FREE for a limited time
Book 2 of the Jacobite Wars for Scotland
Scotland had won its freedom at Prestonpans but all was not well. Bonnie Prince Charlie had dreams of sitting on the throne in London, among many of his expectations that his officers sought to subdue. After all the Scot’s army was yet insignificant in comparison to the English army and the English King was already looking towards the Dutch to bolster his numbers. If the French had kept their promise and risen as expected, it may have been a different story.
While Charlie danced away the night at Holyrood Palace, his officers worried about his plans for the future. Jamie Shepherd and his cousin William Shepherd had experienced the horrors of war at Prestonpans and both now wondered what was right and what was wrong in this conflict. Neither knew where their Uncle James Legg was and whether he would return. As they stood at Duddingston Loch they were faced with a future that looked bleak and both thought of home and family.
Were they prepared for what was to happen next? The plain answer is that no one was. Their paths would not be of their choosing, but this was war and few knew or wished for what lay ahead. With the English army massing at Newcastle and rumours of further battalions arriving from Europe, what was the sensible action? Wait in Edinburgh and grow in strength or challenge the enemy on its own land. Only a maniac would do that?
Well, Bonnie Prince Charlie had his own thoughts and this would be the beginning of a long journey. Follow in the footsteps of the young boys as they travel the length of England and Scotland in their quest for a free Scotland. Who will be ‘Triumphant to the Last’?
