This omnibus edition includes the first THREE books in the popular Mangrove Island contemporary romance series — more than 600 pages of sun, surf and romance.

Book 1: Long Way Home

Tyler Barnes can't believe his eyes when Alexis MacAdams walks back into his life. His high school crush left Mangrove Island seventeen years ago and never looked back. He's held on to the memory of her, even though she never gave him a second glance. Now Alexis is back for the holidays and Tyler is determined to make a lasting impression before she slips away again. He soon learns, however, that her broken heart needs to heal before he has a chance to win it. Can Tyler convince her to risk her heart for a second time?

Book 2: Far From Home

Caspian Warwick, the Marquess of Pembroke, has been enjoying life on Mangrove Island, hosting lavish parties on his yacht and getting a taste of the local female flavor. When his old friend and political advisor arrives to woo him back to public office in England, they hatch a plan to rehabilitate his image, starting with his scandalous love life. Public relations guru Rebecca Laughlin has fled to Mangrove Island from New York after a disastrous affair with her womanizing boss. She’s sworn off charmers and takes an instant dislike to Lord Warwick. In desperate need of money, however, she agrees to help him resurrect his defunct political career by finding him a suitable wife that the public will adore. No one can deny the heat between them ~ the heated arguments and hot tempers, that is. Will they embrace their feelings for each other or will they let their past dictate their future?

Book 3: No Place Like Home

Courtney Haskell has gone from a struggling actress to Mangrove Island hotelier in a matter of weeks, thanks to her father's dying wish that she take the reins of the family's beloved Pink Palm Hotel. Even as the work and financial issues begin to mount, Courtney is determined to rise to the occasion and honor her father's memory. As a successful real estate developer, Eric Ballantine is used to getting what he wants and he has his sights set on The Pink Palm Hotel. When his company's generous offer is rebuffed, he decides to take matters into his own hands. Once he meets the captivating Courtney Haskell, however, Eric finds himself at risk for losing more than his latest pet project.

“Enthralling!” -The Guardian

It has been described as the greatest epic voyage in modern Irish history.

Tim Severin and his companions built a boat using only techniques and materials available in the sixth-century A.D, when St Brendan was supposed to have sailed to America.

The vessel comprised forty-nine ox hides stitched together in a patchwork and stretched over a wooden frame. This leather skin was only a quarter of an inch thick. Yet Severin and his crew sailed Brendan from Brandon Creek in Dingle to Newfoundland, surviving storms and a puncture from pack ice.

Finding a killer in the middle of a blitz is murder.

When a cryptanalyst in Britain's top secret Code and Cyber School is murdered, alarms sound in the highest echelons of Parliament. Was it merely a lover's quarrel that ended her life, or was she killed after telling the Germans everything they wanted to know? That's what MI6 Agent, Commander Grey Hamilton must find out.

He is joined in the chase by an old university friend from Scotland Yard, and a young American genius who has been singled out by the killer as his next victim.

As the Luftwaffe escalates its reign of terror over London, the unlikely team dodges bombs while searching the Underground and London docks knowing failure is not an option. The lives of English soldiers and perhaps the fate of the British Empire itself, is at stake.

“Another great book from one of my favorite authors!” -Peter Schwotzer, Literary Mayhem

In a sleepy historical Iowa town, on the banks of the Mississippi River, tourist season is in full swing, and the strangest serial killer the world has ever known is roaming at will.

It begins with a mysterious house explosion, a severely burned man, and an unidentified female body. More victims follow, each killed under the oddest circumstances, each bearing an identical but unidentified wound, each attack accompanied by the most eerie, musical ticking. When the lead homicide investigator goes missing, Police Sergeant Erin Vanderjagt is forced into the fray and into a personal hell she never imagined.

Who or what could be behind the bizarre deaths, and why is Erin’s boyfriend suddenly acting crazy? Why has her idyllic world suddenly fallen apart? And – as the murders continue – what can Erin do, where can she go, how can she fight the horror… When the Tik-Tik Sings?

A call from a dying man reignites a fuse that has been smoldering for decades, and secrets long buried are about to be unearthed in this tale of fraud, conspiracy, and deception.

Recovering from the firefight of her life, a wounded Chloe Mather is dragged into an investigation she wants no part of by an outsider with a hold on her no one can quite understand.

The stakes are raised even higher when Mather uncovers a startling link, a puzzle with life and death consequences that pushes her beyond the point of no return. At the heart of the riddle lies the key to evidence she needs in order to solve a mortal crime and topple an empire built on deceit. In a frantic race that spans Long Island from shore to shore she finds herself matching wits with a faceless influence peddler, who appears to anticipate her every move. In the balance hangs a life that Mather had long ago given up for lost, and the moral code she has lived by every day of her life.

“I was hooked from the first chapter! The characters are strong and the story flows well! I’m actually gutted that the book ended. I could have just kept on going!” -2 Girl’s Who Love Books

“Some people say that time heals all wounds, but no. Time only deepens the wound. And when I saw Olivia that night in the club, I realized I hated her now more than ever.”

"A deftly plotted mystery…a delightful book." —San Antonio Express News

The most priceless American manuscript in existence has unceremoniously dropped into Paul Mcdonald’s hands–now what?

In between much-needed therapy sessions, Paul’s neurotic friend Booker the burglar stole it from his dad's girl friend's roommate, and now wants sometime-sleuth Paul to find its rightful owner. Because he's pretty sure the roommate’s not it.

Paul is so awed he can hardly bring himself to touch it. It's none other than the missing holograph of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. And Beverly the roommate’s no librarian, she's a flight attendant, so Booker suspects chicanery. He's only too right: Beverly, it turns out, is dead. Murdered for the manuscript, if Paul's guess is right.

He finds out it's in high demand from a zany collection of collectors, Huckleberry Fiends of all stripes of crazy, every single one of them capable of murder. Suddenly he's the protagonist of A Literary Nightmare, surrounded by Mysterious Strangers, playing out A Double-Barrelled Detective Story involving A Stolen White Elephant and pretty much Roughing It with the bullying Homicide Inspector Howard Blick.

It's truly, A Murder, a Mystery, and a Marriage….no, not a marriage, a manuscript! But Paul does have his eye on tough and savvy Sardis Kincannon…

The liberally-sprinkled Mark Twain quotes and references make this witty yarn a treat for the literary-minded, and better yet, the twisty plot will satisfy the pickiest mystery fiend.

“I really enjoyed this story and would highly recommend it.” -Dawn

Oscine is born with a hereditary illness that compels her parents to ignore and despise her; consequently, she grows up waiting for that one special person who will rescue her from loneliness and allow her to truly experience the world.

She communes with Nature in ways that mystify those around her and is revered in her neighborhood and at school for her good deeds.

Oscine eventually leaves home, becomes a nurse, marries, and has three children; yet it is a marriage without love, and her husband treats her as if she is a bondservant.

And then she meets Abraham, a kind, caring doctor, and the two fall in love, but she vows never to leave her husband because she believes in the sanctity of marriage.

Abraham consults with Eli, his best friend, a rich, handsome and charming rogue with the ladies, who tells him how to win over Oscine. But Abraham is unable to follow this advice.

Meanwhile, the marriage between Heath and Oscine continues to disintegrate, and he begins to treat her worse than ever. Oscine still loves Abraham but now wants to stay in the marriage only for her children.

Will Oscine leave a man who cares more for his precious cars than his own wife? Will Abraham take charge and rescue Oscine from a man who does not care about her physical, spiritual, emotional and intellectual well-being the way he does?

And what will happen to Eli as he observes this great love between Abraham and Oscine? Will he change his attitude that women are merely conquests, to be cast off once they are conquered, and give them the honor and respect they are due?

This story is a tragedy, for anytime a man loves a woman who is not his own, there will be blood.

“A must for any fantasy reader.” -Plasma Frequency

Feared and reviled, the fierce, winged creatures known as Jeguduns live in the cliffs surrounding the Taakwa valley. When Malia discovers an injured Jegudun in the pine forest of the valley, she risks everything — exile from the village, loss of her status as clan mother in training, even her life — to befriend and save the surprisingly intelligent creature.

But all of that pales when she learns the truth: the threat to her people is bigger and more malicious than the Jeguduns. Lurking on the edge of the valley is an Outsider army seeking to plunder and destroy her people. It's only a matter of time before the Outsiders find a way through the magic that protects the valley — a magic that can only be created by Taakwa and Jeguduns working together.

When Talia crashes a masked party, the charismatic and dominant Mister Black is the one man who can either help or expose her. Neither can deny their attraction, but what happens when one hot night together turns into so much more…

We all have someone who crossed our path and fundamentally changed us. That one person who blew through our lives, their presence forever stamped on our psyche. They linger in our thoughts, in our hearts, and in the decisions we make. A soul crusher or a dream maker, depending on the perspective.

My person is Mister Black.

I didn’t know him by that name when I first met him.

I didn’t know him at all, but the impression he left behind was just as powerful as the name I call him today.

He is Black: a deadly enforcer and masterful seducer.

I am Red: a justice bleeder and willing participant.

Together we are passion. Colors colliding through each other’s lives.

When our secrets converge in a passionate encounter, stepping out of the shadows just might be worth the risk.

For Amanda Jacobs, dealing with the pain of losing her beloved Dad is the toughest thing she’s ever gone through, and it comes with a lot of complications, as well – like taking over the family business, Mountain Ridge Outdoor Adventures. It makes her miss the simplicity of being a teenager, when she was surrounded by her amazing friends, The Fabulous Four, and she was madly in love with her Dad’s right hand man, Justin Barnes. His sexy smiles and deep brown eyes had made her heart race in a way she’s never felt before or since. When the Fabulous Four unexpectedly show up on her doorstep to support her through this complicated time, things seem to be looking up for Amanda. But that’s not the only surprise visit in store for her…

Justin Barnes left Hope Falls ten years ago, in the dead of night, and didn’t think he’d ever set foot there again. That was just fine with him, except for one little complication: Amanda Jacobs. He had fallen in love with her unruly blonde curls and sparkling sapphire eyes, but she had been a teenager then, five years younger than he – too young for him to act on his attraction. Still, he’d missed her every single day of those ten years. When Justin receives a phone call that his former mentor has passed away, he knows he has to return to Hope Falls. Justin just has one question – will the girl that once adored him have grown into a woman that can’t stand him? Or will she still be the only thing in the world that feels like home?

When she was a child, Avery Harmen watched her father die at the hands of a Glower—a breed of demon that feeds on dreams of fame and glory. Now she secretly protects the rising stars of Los Angeles from the demons that prey on them, determined to make sure her clients never suffer the same fate.

Then Avery finds herself assigned to Colin Ryder, a young indie rocker who just landed a major label deal. Colin is cocky, rebellious, a brilliant musician, and already in the Glowers’ sights. He’s also far too hot for Avery to ignore the chemistry between them— especially when she gets to know the tender side behind his celebrity facade. Though Avery knows she’s falling too fast, she’s willing to risk heartbreak if fanning the flames of attraction distracts Colin from his Glower-tempting antics. But Colin is keeping a secret of his own, one so big it will put both her heart and his soul on the line.

Genre: Thriller and Suspense
Price: $0.99 save $2

Amazon Bestselling and Award-Winning Author

A half-American, half-South African sunflower farmer who faces a gauntlet of obstacles while seeking justice for his murdered and displaced family.

School of the Assassins melds the best elements of L.A. crime fiction with the intrigue of an international action thriller, forging a powerhouse story that is resonating with readers and critics alike.

Here’s what the reviewers have to say:

This fast-paced, well-written thriller combines little known contemporary history of the ongoing war in South Africa with today’s drug scene in the Los Angeles area. The author uses a powerful descriptive narrative and a keen understanding of people caught up in extreme circumstances to move the reader at a fast clip through this entertaining tale of suffering and redemption.

*******

This is a well-crafted thriller centered around compelling characters. The detailed descriptions of action-packed encounters reveal the author’s obvious military background, experience, and research. I think this book would make a terrific film that would also bring the South African farm owners’ atrocities to light for a broad audience.

*******

I found the book engrossing the more I got into it. The characters worked well together and the whole concept of a really well thought tale kept me reading when I should have been doing other things.

*******

A very interesting read. The story line is strong and the characters well drawn. Stretching from the collapse In white supremacy in South Africa to the drug cartels from Mexico infiltrating the U S A, the book provides a thrilling insight into both scenarios.

*******

If you’re looking for an action thriller with convincing characters, you’ve found it in “School of the Assassins”. Blais takes you on an incredible journey with action that will keep you on the edge of your seat. This book is a riveting read.

“….simply AMAZING! It’s definitely my new favorite by this author.” -Stephanie Verhaegen (Bookfever)

When Jane married her college sweetheart and the love of her life, she never dreamed she would lose him to leukemia before either of them reached forty. A year later, she's struggling to move on and create a new life for herself, a second act that she never expected to have to follow the first. Picking up the pieces is hard enough—it's even harder when those closest to her don't understand or support the way she's trying to put them back together again.

But while the curtain may have come down on the life she originally had planned, life itself certainly isn't finished with her yet.

And neither, as it turns out, is her heart.

The flight crew is killed, the jet destroyed by a rocket. When they find a cache of drugs and guns in the warehouse, they realize the airfield belongs to a war lord.

Life becomes a battle for survival against a ruthless enemy, while every day the TV delivers news that grows worse and worse. The terrorist virus is sweeping across the world, killing millions of people. There will be no rescue from the outside, but they are not alone.

They are being watched…

“…a haunting tale of love and time travel… Readers will love Lee and Phoebe’s story…” -Sabrina Cooper, RT Book Review

Award-Winning Author

Witch trials in Virginia? Salem wasn’t the first…

Psychologist Shae Howard treats a patient who claims to recall nothing of the current century. Under hypnosis, Phoebe Wynne tells an astonishing tale of an ocean crossing to Colonial Jamestown, followed by near starvation and a daring escape to a nearby Indian tribe.

Although Shae’s ex-husband, seasoned police detective Lee Crowley, is intrigued by Phoebe’s story, he remains skeptical regarding her claim that she’s from the seventeenth century. A Native American himself, he does, however, admit to feeling a kinship with Phoebe. How is it that she seems to understand his pain and anger at being caught between two cultures?

Phoebe shows Lee “the dreaming,” which reveals a misty world where the Powhatan people and Colonial Jamestown come to life… and connects him to his own past. Is Phoebe delusional? A witch? Or has she indeed traveled through time?

"Chloe and Grayson's story was all kinds of sexy, funny, cry in your pillow, and swoon swoon a lot." -Janae H., 5 stars

They call us the Firework Girls.

I'm Chloe. It's bad enough to be practically left at the altar, even worse to rebound with the right guy at the wrong time. And timing is the only thing that's wrong with Grayson, the heart-stopping, blue-eyed master of my body and soul for one perfect night.

But it was too much too soon, so I ran… left without a word. Stupid, I know.

And yes, I've been regretting it. Every day. For months.

Then he storms back into my life, but this time, he's not alone.

Let me just say, there's only one word for seeing my soul mate hook up with one of my best friends:

Hell.

Jake Owens is tired of the cowboy life on his parents' Montana ranch, catering to city folk who want a taste of old-fashioned country living. He enjoys life in the fast lane, with fast cars and even faster women. When he falls in with the wrong crowd and is accused of murder, a stranger's bizarre offer at a second chance might be his only hope to clear his name.

Rachel Parker is highly devoted to her family. A tragedy prompts a daring move to the Oregon Territory for a fresh start in a new land. After meeting the wagon train's scout, the meaning of a fresh start may be more than she ever imagined.

Jake doesn’t believe in time travel, or that he's been sent back in time to act as scout for a wagon train along the Oregon Trail. He’s also been given the added burden of keeping one emigrant woman safe during the journey. He and Rachel are confused by their attraction to each other. Jake's ill-mannered, unconventional ways are overshadowed only by his notorious reputation. Rachel's traditional values and quiet, responsible character are the complete opposite of what attracts Jake to a woman. When their forbidden attraction turns to love, what will happen at the end of the trail?

Greed. Dark magic. Murder. … Cool.

Award-winning author David C. Cassidy dares you to light up a candle and curl up in your favorite reading chair on a cold, blustery night. Take in the sounds, the smells, the sensation of utter terror, as you weather a journey into the darkest side of the human psyche. In this chilling tale of supernatural horror where Stephen King meets The Twilight Zone, nothing is ever as it seems—and nothing can prepare you for the evil that lurks in the hearts of men. Eerie and sinister, Fosgate’s Game is a haunting tale of greed, dark magic, and murder.

IT WAS A DARK AND STORMY KNIGHT.

For Chadwick Harlow, a peaceful, easy-going Englishman, after-dinner drinks with his business partner—a ruthless, hard-edged hunter—is a weekly affair. But when casual conversation takes a mysterious and menacing turn into the supernatural, his wits are put to the test in a deadly challenge. Clinging to life but praying for death, Chadwick must summon the will to survive, before all is lost in a terrifying descent into madness.
