I snatched Sara’ Game by Ernie Lindsey on a free day on 10.23.23. The cover talked to me and I am a sucker for a great cover. This psychological thriller is sure to mess with your mind.
The question of the day:
Are you ready to play the game?
Sara Winthrop has tragedy hanging over her head. First her husband goes missing, then her three children. What the hell is going on and why is she a target for such wickedness. It had me wondering. It takes a strong character like Sara to save the day…and I do love kickass women. The tempo of Sara’s Game by Ernie Lindsey makes me want more of such a great character.

Two years ago, Sara’s husband left for the gym one morning…and never came back. His car was found. He wasn’t. Unbelievably, the police report said, “No foul play suspected.” There were a few unreliable sightings over the following months, but little else.
Now, on the last day before summer break, her three children have gone missing from their schools, all at the same time.
And the note under her windshield wiper asks one simple question: Are you ready to play the game?

We are back with Prey Security: Bravo Team #4, Cruel Scars by Jane Blythe, a romantic suspense novel that is sure to be sizzling hot and filled with danger. But two strangers will meet and fall in love, getting their happy ever after. We just don’t know what torment and torture they will have to go through to find it.
Stephanie Fuller is on a vacation, but that was not to be. She was snatched off the street and whisked away. She wakes up naked and afraid, laying on the cold concrete. She wasn’t alone for long. A man is stripped of his clothing, chained to the wall, naked. Stephanie meet Patrick “Trick” Kramer. I don’t know how they will save themselves, but Patrick only needs one chance. Will they come close enough, thinking he is no threat? Of course. 🙂
I love when Patrick describes her as a superhero in training. Gotta have a little light to overcome the darkness.
I love this series and I love to see familiar faces. The team is family and when one is in danger, they all are. You need help and healing, this family will supply it. Sure, we have some cheesy moments, but that is a common theme with the genre. But, not everything is predictable. So brace yourself for a wild ride.

To survive two strangers will have to rely on only each other.
Stephanie Fuller has had the year from hell and a vacation to Mexico was supposed to be a way to find her equilibrium again. Instead she’s snatched off the streets and wakes up in a dark, dank underground prison. Nothing could prepare her for what’s going to happen to her there, or the connection she builds with her fellow captive.
When Patrick “Trick” Kramer wakes up in a small cell and learns he’s not alone he quickly puts together the pieces of who took him and why. Despite a rocky start in life he’s a protector, and there is nothing worse for a man like him than having an innocent woman who needs his protection but being unable to save her from the hell that’s coming.
There is no way Stephanie won’t hate him for what he has to do.

It is so nice to be back with Jane Blythe’s hunkalicious military men in Brutal Scars, the third book in the Prey Security: Bravo Team series. We start out hot and it doesn’t end until the happy every after. Brutal Scars is filled with action and adventure and Jane has no qualms about putting her characters through the proverbial wringer.
In Brutal Scars, we will get Jessica Bowen and Mason “Scorpion” Markson’s story. Mason thinks he knows Jessica’s story, but he is in for a rude awakening when he volunteers to join a cult to rescue her. We know Jane Blythe writes about strong female characters, so we know Jessica is no shrinking violet. She feels his appearance is going to ruin everything.
Jessica had a horrendous childhood and Mason is in for a big surprise when she tells him like it is. He is looking forward to coming face to face with her brother, David. But, first, they will have to survive their time in the cult. The cult leader has an agenda and feels anyone that doesn’t believe his way of life is the only way, they plan to eliminate. It’s up to Jessica and Mason to save the day.
I love romantic suspense novels. Sure, they all have a similar format…Damsel in distress, knight in (un)shining armor comes to save the day and they live happily ever after…and that is what I am looking for.

He’s the last person she wants messing up all her hard work.
Jessica Bowen knows responsibility, learned it at a young age. Living through something horrific she somehow managed to hold most of her family together and build a life for herself. A life that isn’t the one she planned but it’s one she can be proud of, where she can make a difference and save lives. Until he shows up threatening to destroy everything she’s worked so hard to achieve.
Mason “Scorpion” Markson was looking forward to a vacation when he gets a call that the spoiled, selfish sister of an old friend is in trouble. He shouldn’t go into a cult after her, it’s more hassle than its worth, and yet he owes it to his friend to save his sister. The last thing he expects to find when he goes undercover is a calm, competent, capable woman who has a whole lot of anger and hostility towards him.
She’s not who he was led to believe she was, so why did her brother lie about her?

Facing Nightfall: The Sunrise Saga by Michael B Chikondi is his first novel and I am glad that he brought it into the light. This dark, gothic, eerie novel can be described as a coming of age novel for Abbey Sharp. I love that she climbs out her window and has a hideaway on the roof where she observes her surroundings while smoking cigarettes.
Abbey and her friend, Lewis, wander the streets at night fighting against the darkness that calls to them. They will face more than the supernatural. They will question their life, their loyalty will be tested and it will take a lot of strength to resist the evil taking over the town.
MIchael B Chikondi blends the supernatural with humanity, making the characters question their choices. I found Facing Nightfall to be an original take on a familiar tale and I do love my vampires, so getting lost in Abbey’s story was exciting, making it hard to stop reading. It’s 419 pages of deliciousness.
I have read numerous novels by Michael B Chikondi, but this is my favorite.

When the quiet town of Masham falls under the shadow of something ancient and merciless, Abbey Sharp finds herself drawn into a struggle far larger than late-night smokes on the rooftop and her parents’ weary routines. As night stretches on, whispers of missing people, strange broadcasts, and creatures that shouldn’t exist unravel the fabric of normal life. Abbey and her friend Lewis are forced to confront a terrifying the town is infested with vampires, and survival demands more than just keeping the lights on. But in a world where allegiances blur and even family can change overnight, Abbey must decide how much of herself she’s willing to sacrifice. Is she strong enough to resist the seductive pull of power, or will she lose everything in the fight against the darkness? Facing Nightfall is a gothic, atmospheric vampire tale where loyalty is tested, blood is bargained, and the night never truly ends.
Michael B. Chikondi is not to be trusted, but the creature agrees to a meeting in its burrow. We enter with trepidation, given that the thing has no doorbell. As we crawl through the narrow tunnel, gored out by its own teeth, by the texture, we hear what can only be described as a hacking cough.
“Can we approach?” we call.
“No soliciting.” the voice returns.
“You sent for us; you told us to ask you questions. You know, for promotional reasons.”
“Ask.” the dread voice responds.
“Alright, who are you?” we try.
“A creature of mist and shadow, half-mad, I used to go out, I did, and know those…humans. Not now, not since…the pen.”
“You found a pen? That’s why you became a writer?” we ask, now terrified, trying to gauge how fast we can leave the burrow. The photographer has already left us, chewing off his own watch, caught on a tree root.
“Yes, but now…I hunger…”
We are not proud; we turn tail and flee, before it can leave its den. We aren’t paid enough to get a full bio. We can only pray someone buys its books, so that the thing never comes out on its own.
Ed. What the hell is this? This isn’t what we requested. Just some nonsense and an artist’s rendition of what one of my people saw before he contracted rabies? Eh, whatever. Plenty more writers in the sea.
Journey To Red Dawn: The Torch Of Life by Cagla Meydan was so much more than I expected. I think Altan, a Wall Street broker, was going through a midlife crisis. He is a mountain climber, and when he heard that Mount Evolution had grown taller, he embarked on a journey of self discovery by climbing to the top. He is seeking answers to some age old questions like: Why am I here? What is my purpose?
Altan is married and, though he doesn’t know it, his wife Ruby is pregnant. She never loses faith, believing, no matter what, Altan will return to her. The journey is brutal. Many of those who began the journey with him, will never return home and it looked like he wouldn’t either. He won’t leave his new friend, and it will mean his death, also.
I liked the thought that everything is connected. Their psyche as a whole would affect the climb. When they dwelled in doom and gloom, the weather darkened and storm arose. The earth shifted, making itself known.
Journey To Red Dawn by Cagla Meydan is one of the most thoughtprovoking novels I have read in a long time. The book is an oversized paperback, heavy in weight, and 403 pages of unputdownable deliciousness. The Epilogue is short and sweet and I loved it.

If I would have known this was a season’s series 0, I probably wouldn’t have downloaded it, but it was a freebie, so no worries. It’s long enough, 45 pages, to be considered a novella. It doesn’t lack in content. Fast paced. I wandered through Alex Paynes’ past, enjoying every minute of it, and would love to read more.
I have some other work by Audrey Walker and will move onto them. I think they are all the first book of a series, and whether I continue or not after that, I cannot say at this time. I have soooo many books I rarely buy anything any more.
I want to thank Audrey for the wonderful puzzles of her book covers she puts in her newsletters. I enjoy them very much.

When I first saw the cover for Mortuous 28: Ashes Of Civilization by Kevin W K Moore, I thought it could be a graphic novel. It isn’t. It is a full length novel, filled with blood and gore. I will warn you, this is a series and, so far, this is the only published book. How long will we have to wait for Book II? I don”t know. Hopefully not long, because I am hanging off the cliff.
We get right to it from the getgo. There was the Covid pandemic, war with Russia, the Second Great Depression, and now we have a biological virus that creates zombies and a war with China on the horizon. How much more can humans take? Is it every man for themselves? We sure know that the rich and powerful aren’t sharing.
Anybody that reads a lot of apocalyptic and dystopian novels knows the drill. There’s a lot of blood, guts, gore and death. People drop like flies. I love it! Thaddeus Stormbreaker is battling his way through the flesh eating zombies, trying to get to Mexico. Will he make it?
We’ll have to wait until the next part of the ongoing saga of Mortuous 28. I hope you are writing fast Kevin, because I have this burning desire to know more.

Polish your shotgun, sharpen your machete, and get ready for the first blood-splattered installment in the Mortuous 28 series by International Bestselling and Global Book Award-winning author Kevin W. K. Moore. This unrelenting, nightmarish odyssey is seething with gore, violence, vile human behaviour, and hordes of festering, undead monsters. Ashes of Civilization is sure to satisfy your lust for gut-wrenching carnage and bloodcurdling despair.
Following the journey of Thaddeus Stormbreaker, a hardened Finnish-Canadian immigrant forged by his survivalist father and Indigenous mentor to thrive beyond the reaches of civilization, the Mortuous 28 series takes you on a blood-soaked, action-packed journey across a North American hellscape.
A decade of pandemics, economic collapse, and global conflict has left the world order in ruin. Lines in the dirt have been redrawn, militaries are exhausted, and the once-dominant superpowers no longer have the might to protect and police the world.
Just as civilization is regaining its footing and the ashes of World War III have only just settled, a viral outbreak, its origins shrouded in mystery, tears through the demilitarized zone in Russia’s Chukchi Peninsula. Is it a biological weapon of a rejuvenated war effort, or nature’s retaliation against the scourge of humankind?
Dubbed Mortuous 28, the viral contagion sweeps across the globe like wildfire, transforming everything with a heartbeat into ravenous, flesh-eating beasts. As North America devolves faster than the infection can spread, chaos reigns, and humans lose their humanity to self-preservation. Violence becomes the new currency of survival, and the living are often more dangerous than the undead.
With his machete, rifle, and souped-up camper van, Thaddeus is forced to decide his fate and survive the crossing a continental wasteland to escape the flesh-eating monsters, save a long-lost love, and reach an unsullied Mexico. In this blood-slicked and brain-splattered new world, Thaddeus Stormbreaker will soon learn that men with power are as insatiable as the zombified beasts.
The sixth great extinction is upon us. Time is running out. Can a cure be found? Or has humankind’s time on earth come to an end?
Born in the 1980s in Chatham, Ontario, Canada, I developed an early fascination with travel, storytelling, and the natural world. Equipped with a camera, notebook, and an adventurous spirit, I spent over fifteen years journeying across continents—capturing striking landscapes and drawing inspiration from the people and cultures I encountered along the way.
My debut memoir, Dude, Where’s My Walking Stick, chronicles my 1,300-kilometre trek across New Zealand and reflects the transformative power of perseverance and discovery. The book received the Global Book Award for Best Amateur Writer, reached the top of Amazon’s Adventure Memoir and Walking categories, and ranked among the platform’s top 1,000 titles. Its success led to features on CBC News, Windsor Life Magazine, and CKLW Radio, where I shared insights about both the journey and the creative process behind the work.
A lifelong outdoor enthusiast, I continue to explore some of the world’s most remote and challenging landscapes. My recent ten-day solo hike through Kluane National Park in Northern Canada reaffirmed my passion for solitude and the natural world. In addition to writing, I am an avid nature photographer whose work has been exhibited internationally and was nominated for the Yukon Visual Arts Award in 2024.
I currently reside in Manzanillo, Mexico, with my partner and our cat, where I am embracing a new climate and culture while developing future writing projects. Whether through photography or prose, my goal remains the same—to tell meaningful stories that connect people to the beauty, unpredictability, and wonder of the world around us.
Winter Of Blood And Miracles is a holiday bonus story for the French Quarter Vampire King series. I love a good vampire story and I don’t read many where a child is born, let alone it being half nephilim and half vampire. I can see why demons would love to get their hands on the child. I was quickly wrapped up in the story, not wanting to stop reading until the last word was read.

Now the clock is ticking, and the snow-soaked streets of New Orleans run red as we tear the city apart to find who took our baby. I’ve faced monsters before… but nothing like this.
Because this time, I’m not just fighting for my life. I’m fighting for my family.

I am familiar with James L’Etoile’s name, but I have never read any of his work. His books sound right up my alley, so when I saw Illusion Of Truth and had the time to read it, I grabbed a copy. James does not disappoint.
Detective Emily Hunt is used to running towards danger, so when her boyfriend, also a cop, Brian Connor, is hurt in a church bombing, she will stop at nothing to find who is responsible. She has no idea how deep the conspiracy goes. By choosing to go slow with their relationship, did she lose her chance at happiness? She also has to cope with her mother’s dementia. How long before she doesn’t recognize who Amanda is?
It seems the villain is targeting the police. Why? What grievance could they have that would cause them to go to such extremes? Mystery and danger abound.
James L’Etoile supplies us with a hefty dose of suspects. I looked for the villain through a process of elimination, but he was not on my radar when James finally exposed him. I do love a story that keeps me guessing until the end.
