I have been writing since elementary school, by never learning to print as a child, and having to learn cursive writing inspired me to write a lot as a youth. Writing my first novella at only 10, and staying in the 100 page realm for a long time, finally getting a push from my wife to create more elaborate stories here I am. Growing up all over the Midwest and traveling extensively you will always find some truth in all the stories I write.

COVER REVEAL: Ugly by Margaret McHeyzer




Title: Ugly
Author: Margaret McHeyzer
Genre: YA/NA
Cover Design: Book Cover by Design
 Release Date: October 2015



Blurb

If I were dead, I wouldn't be able to see.
If I were dead, I wouldn't be able to feel. 
If I were dead, he'd never raise his hand to me again. 
If I were dead, his words wouldn't cut as deep as they do. 
If I were dead, I'd be beautiful and I wouldn't be so...ugly.

I'm not dead...but I wish I was.







Excerpt

I feel him walking around the house. The floorboards creak, moving with his footsteps. Vibrations are traveling through the floor to where I'm sitting. I close my eyes tighter, and try and hum as quietly as I can.

Please go away, Daddy. Please go away.

My heart is beating fast, and my hands are shaking. I’m trying really hard not to think about what’s going to happen the minute he opens the door.

It’s so quiet now. The only sound is my heart thrumming in my ears. Nothing else. Not a whisper, not a rattle…nothing.

Maybe Daddy’s left, maybe he’s gone to the pub to have a few drinks. Maybe, just maybe, he’s left...forever.

I take a deep breath and just relax for a moment. My shoulders drop and I finally stop rocking. Slowly, I take my hands down from my ears, and I’m so happy because I can’t hear him yelling at me. I can’t hear him at all.

Gradually I begin to unscrunch my eyes from the way I've tightly closed them. But something’s not right. There’s light coming into the cupboard.

I don’t even get a chance to open my eyes fully when a rough hand reaches in, latches onto my ponytail and rips me out of the cupboard.

“I told you it’d be worse for you if I had to find you,” Dad says as he drags me by my hair. I’m desperately trying to hold onto my head so he doesn’t rip my hair out, while my feet try to find traction on the dirty floorboards.

“Please, Daddy. Please. You’re hurting me,” I begin sobbing, pleading with him to stop.

“Then your ugly ass should’ve come when I called you. You stupid bitch, you’re a fucking worthless, ugly idiot,” he says. But now his voice is calm as he continues to drag me toward the family room.

That’s when he’s most scary. When his voice is low and his eyes are filled with hate. He throws me against the side of the sofa and takes a step back to look at me.

I look up and can see he’s angrier than I’ve ever seen him. “You dumb, ugly piece of shit,” he says as he paces back and forth in front of me.

“Sorry, Daddy. Whatever I did, I’m so sorry.” I curl into myself, defensively trying to make myself as small as possible.

“You’re just fucking stupid, aren’t you?” he spits toward me, as he brings his hand up to scratch at his chin.

“I’m sorry,” I say again, tears falling hot and fast down my cheeks. My head hurts from where he pulled my hair but I don’t dare try and rub the spot.

“You ugly fuck.” He aims a boot at my leg. The pain is instant and my leg feels like it’s shattered.

“Please, Daddy,” I beg again as I bury my face into my hands. But ‘please’ never seems to work.

Nothing does.

I’ve just got to take the beatings, because that’s what stupid, ugly twelve-year old girls do.




Author Bio

There's something about the written word that is pure magic.

Possibly it's the fact there are 26 letters in the English alphabet, and they can create something so beautiful or so empowering they're capable to change our lives.

How important is it that we break suit and stretch our minds?

I like to think of myself as 'unique'. My stories aren't for everyone, and sometimes I may push what you believe to be 'normal'.

Normal is subjective.

I prefer to be known as a person who's never been 'bound by custom' but is 'unique by choice'.


I hope you do read and enjoy my stories.

Re-Released: Moonsong The Wolves of Cutter's Folly by: Lisa Olsen







CHECK OUT THE NEW COVER!! 





 From Bestselling Paranormal Romance Author Lisa Olsen

After werewolves attack her family, Amelia Singer escapes to Cutter's Folly in search of her long lost grandmother. There she finds the strangest revelation yet - not only is she descended from a long line of shapeshifters, Amelia's firstborn is destined to lead the pack to dominion over all others. Now power hungry shifters everywhere will stop at nothing to share in that prophecy. Choosing a mate is the only way to end the violence, but how can she be expected to choose a man she's known for less than a week? At the heart of this struggle, Amelia is torn between Chase, who makes her pulse race with a single sultry glance, and Cutter, a reclusive but tempting loner with secrets of his own. Can fiercely independent Amelia find happiness with the pack, or will she rebel under the pressure and take her chances on her own?

Chase dropped to the ground on her right, landing light as a cat before straightening to his full height and stepping close.  “You’re not so good at listening, let’s see how good you are with your mouth,” he smirked.  Closing the distance between them, he leaned down to kiss her, giving her no opportunity to pull away.

Millie opened her mouth to retort, her reply cut off to little more than a squeak as his mouth closed over hers.  Who the hell did he think he was?  A wolf… a little voice deep inside reminded as she tasted his hunger.  Awareness flushed through her body as Chase pressed her against the length of him, trapping her body between his and the tree.  Everything about him was hard and unyielding, but he didn’t punish her with his strength, he merely kept her from escaping while he explored the dark secrets of her mouth at his leisure.  Amelia’s initial hesitation quickly disappeared, the blood singing in her veins as her arousal spread like wildfire wherever their bodies touched. 

Still, a smidgen of self control remained and Millie shoved at his chest, desperate to create a little space between them.  Chase barely gave an inch, blazing a trail of kisses along the curve of her jaw toward the smooth column of her throat. 

“What are you doing?” she demanded, even as her fingers slid up to curl around the collar of his shirt, pulling him closer. 

“Showing you how dangerous the night can be.”

His kiss was everything wild and dangerous about the night as promised, and a secret part of herself she didn’t even know existed responded to the predator who took what he wanted, instead of asking permission as society dictated.  No thought for consequences or the future, Chase operated on a purely sensual level.  She could feel it in the way the energy thrummed from his body to hers.  It made her forget the party in full swing just a few feet away, forget her objections to being manhandled altogether.  Somewhere in the back of her mind that bothered her in a big way, and a flare of panic went through her as he touched bare skin. 

“Wait…” she panted, breaking the kiss and drawing in a ragged breath.

“Relax.”  Chase made no move to let her go, lips brushing over the sensitive spot where neck met shoulder. 

“We should get back to the party.”

“I warned you not to stray into the dark woods unprotected.”  His teeth scraped lightly over her flesh in a love bite, and Millie hoped it wouldn’t leave a mark.  That was the last thing she wanted to explain to Gran.

“You were the one who was supposed to protect me, remember?”

“I am protecting you,” he insisted.

“How, by mauling me out in the woods yourself?” Millie demanded, pulling her head away to try and catch his gaze. 

“I am keeping you safe by making you mine,” Chase replied as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

“Who says I’m yours?”

That brought him up short.  “Is there someone else?”

“Well, no, but…”

“Then what’s the problem?”  His sexy grin reappeared.

“The problem is, I just met you yesterday, Chase.  I don’t work that fast.”

“You can’t fight your destiny, Amelie.  You know we belong together.”

“Don’t call me that,” she snapped irritably.  Chase seemed unperturbed, stroking his fingers down the bare skin of her back, making her shiver with delight.  It took Amelia a long moment to focus her thoughts again before she could reply.  “Just because you’re a good kisser, doesn’t make you my destiny.  Besides, what about Leah?”

“What about her?”  He stared back blankly.

“Aren’t you and she…?”

Chase gave an inelegant snort.  “That was never anything serious.”

“Does she know that?  Because if looks could kill…”

“She knew exactly what she was getting into.” 

Millie turned that over in her head for a moment, trying to decide exactly what he meant by that.  “Look…”  She stole a deep, calming breath.  “I like you Chase.  I’d like to get to know you better, but I don’t belong to anyone but myself.  That’s about all I’m offering right now.  If that’s not enough…”  She shook her head.  

Chase stared back at her for a long moment, and then the tension went out of his body and he found his smile again.  “Alright, that’ll have to be enough for now.  I’m a patient man, Millie – up to a certain point,” he replied, tilting her chin up and placing an almost chaste kiss to her lips.  “So, if you’re not going to let me steal your virtue out here, let’s get back to the party.  And no more wandering off, you understand?”

“Okay, okay,” she grumbled, trusting the darkness to hide her eye roll.  “I read you loud and clear.”  She accepted his hand for the walk back to the party. 

“Good, I’d hate to have to give you another lesson.” 


 


I am a writer, wife, and mother of two currently living in the Pacific Northwest. I am a complete TV addict (have to have it on at all times, even when I'm writing). I also enjoy online RPG's, singing, reading, cooking... lots more I can't think of at the moment.

The supernatural has long been my favorite to write and read. Werewolves, vampires, witchcraft, ghosts, things that go bump in the night; these are a few of my favorite things to write about. Not sparkly beings with phenomenal cosmic power that are always the smartest, bravest, prettiest Mary Sue to walk the planet, but real people who just happen to have this little quirk...

RELEASE BLITZ: Tribulations and Truths (Chastity Falls Series Book 3) by: L.A. Cotton


 photo Release Banner_zpsbb0m2tq2.jpg  photo Cover No background_zpscxvgqyo9.png
Title: Tribulation and Truths (Chastity Falls Series Book 3)

Author: L.A. Cotton
Genre: NA romantic suspense
Release Date: August 20th

 

 
When Ana revealed her suspicions to Jackson about the circumstances surrounding his father’s death, she never expected it to be the catalyst for a series of events that could change everything. It was supposed to save him, not push him away. But now Ana is left watching the person she loves more than anything, lose himself to vengeance.
Jackson has spent most of his life loyal to the man he calls Uncle. But since learning that Marcus Donohue might have been responsible for the death of his father, Jackson is consumed with the need for revenge. Even if it means hurting the people he loves, and going against everything he believes in, to uncover what happened.
Will the truth finally set Jackson free or will it ruin his last chance at happiness with Ana… and a life out from under the shadows of the Donohues?
Tribulations will be overcome, truths will be revealed. Welcome to Chastity Falls.



 


























 photo Excerpt_zpsa5htxexx.jpg


“It’s my best shot. Only one of us is walking away from this and right now my upper hand is that Marcus thinks it will be him.”
Dennis stepped off the cage and blew out a long breath. “She doesn’t know, does she?”
“No. It’s for the best. Ana thinks we’re planning how we move forward on this together.”
Over the last couple of weeks, the pieces of the puzzle had slowly been slotting into place, and more and more I was realizing it was something set into motion a long time ago.
“If shit goes south, I need to know you’ll protect her. Even if it means getting her out of Chastity Falls. She’d never leave if I asked her to, she’s stubborn and she thinks we’re in this together.”
I hated lying to Ana, but it was better for her to draw her own conclusions than for me to admit that only one of us could walk away from this—Marcus or me. It would crush her. I couldn’t do it to her. To us.
“You know I will, but does it have to go down like this?” Dennis’ Adam’s apple bobbed and the desperation in his voice caught me off guard. “Is there no other way? Maybe we could go to someone for help?”
Scrubbing a hand through my hair I leaned back against the lockers and said, “This is the only way. We both know it. This is exactly the way Marcus planned it.”
The door swung open and the rest of the team filed in. I threw Dennis a look that I hope conveyed my gratitude.
I owed him my life.
 I just hoped I didn’t have to pay up.
