I just know you are all going to think I am crazy, but I experienced something that I am pretty sure no one on this planet has ever experienced before. Yesterday I went to Target to see if there were any Halloween sale items that I might want to grab. As I made my way to the back of the store to the seasonal section, I grew more and more excited to see the Christmas decorations that I was sure would be up. I couldn’t wait to see the new ornaments, decorations and wrapping paper. But when I got there it was empty. Sure they had the lights up in the back wall, but those have been there since the end of September. They got all the trees up and lit, but what about the spiffy new stuff? I want to see the spiffy new stuff! Not even the wrapping paper was out! Where is Christmas!!!! Yes I know the Christmas pillows are out. I don’t want pillows. I want to see cute penguins in hats and scarfs ornaments, glitter infested stars, and swirly pink candy canes. Not one candy cane to be seen! AAAHHHHHH! No… I have never claimed to be a reasonable person.
Discern, A Young Adult Fantasy (Katon University Book 1)
Andrea Pearson
Genre: Teen & Young Adult
FREE for a limited time
Nicole Williams is an Arete — a fourth child with magical abilities — yet no matter how hard she tries, she can’t Channel her power. In fact, she seems to be the only student at Katon University who fails at magic. This doesn’t stop her from competing to be included on a university-led expedition to Arches National Park. She is determined to show everyone, but mostly herself, that she does belong. Yet, to qualify for the trip, she must produce at least a speck of Wind magic, and that appears to be impossible. Nicole turns to her best friend, Lizzie, for help, along with fellow student Austin Young, who is considered by all a magical rarity. He also happens to be the hottest guy on campus and just might be interested in her. As the competition progresses, Nicole wonders if she’s making the right choice — especially when she learns that the strange fossils they’ll be studying in Arches might not be as dead as everyone thinks.

A Lady in Defiance ( Romance in the Rockies Book 1)
Heather Blanton
Genre: Religion & Spirituality | Teen & Young Adult | Religious & Inspirational Fiction
FREE for a limited time
HIS TOWN. HER GOD. LET THE BATTLE BEGIN. Charles McIntyre owns everything and everyone in the lawless, godless mining town of Defiance. When three good, Christian sisters from his beloved South show up stranded, alone, and offering to open a “nice” hotel, he is intrigued enough to let them stay… especially since he sees feisty middle sister Naomi as a possible conquest. But Naomi, angry with God for widowing her, wants no part of Defiance or the saloon-owning, prostitute-keeping Mr. McIntyre. It would seem however, that God has gone to elaborate lengths to bring them together. The question is, “Why?” Does God really have a plan for each and every life? Written with gritty, but not gratuitous, realism uncharacteristic of historical Christian fiction, A Lady in Defiance gives a nod to both Pride and Prejudice and Redeeming Love. Based on true events, it is also an ensemble piece that deftly weaves together the relationships of the three sisters and the rowdy residents of Defiance.

Snatched
Pamela Burford
Genre: Romance | Humor & Satire
FREE for a limited time
A humorous romantic suspense novel that’s fresh, quirky, and surprising! Find out why Snatched has been described as “Janet Evanovich meets the Coen Brothers.”
Is an uncomplicated divorce and a fresh start at forty too much to ask? Apparently it is for Lucy Narby, whose life goes from blah to bizarro when competing kidnappers lock horns in her kitchen. And really, does the victor have to be that hot? If this is the Stockholm syndrome, it sure didn’t take her long to catch it! Lucy’s kidnapper calls himself Will but looks suspiciously like ’80s child TV star Ricky Baines, whose acting career was cut short when he himself was snatched and held for ransom 25 years ago in a notorious cold case that remains unsolved. Will’s gang includes an aging French bombshell, an outlandish Irish giant with a mysterious past and a thing for Will’s sister, and long-lost Cousin Hal — a charming fellow who neglects to mention that he happens to be the twisted sociopath who kidnapped Will when he was still America’s favorite little star. Hal spent the past quarter century in the slammer for an unrelated murder, and now he’s out and determined to locate the $2 million ransom Will’s family paid. Someone else dug up the cash while Hal was behind bars, and that sort of thing tends to make twisted sociopaths a tad grouchy. Fortunately (or not), Lucy’s bigamous ex is on the case. But so are a gay private eye in a fat suit and a bad-tempered parrot with an ax to grind, so no worries. Everyone has a secret and no one is who he seems when Kidnap Fever strikes.
