Termination Rule by Alaina Stanford

COVER REVEAL

Today the big feature is Alaina Stanford!

She has a brand new book, with an eye popping new cover!

First lets start off with a little bit about Alaina, here is her Author Bio:

I have one of those brains that won’t turn off at night.
Many nights I would distract my intellect by revamping a movie, book or TV show
in my mind. I would twist and turn the plots and characters to achieve the
ending I preferred. That developed into side stories about my favorite minor
characters. Each night I fell asleep in the middle of a grand adventure. It
wasn’t long before I began to create stories of my own and put pen to paper.
I love a good adventure. I love a good romance. As the
mother of seven children, I also learned to love to play video games. One day
it occurred to me to write an adventure that flowed like a video game and I
added a touch of romance. Thus, Hypnotic Journey was born. The HJ characters
are like a family to me. They are foolish, daring, resourceful, passionate and
dedicated to their friends.
My love for Science Fiction gave birth to the Treborel
Series. It’s a paranormal Sci-Fi romance featuring a psychotic villain and a
multiple layer
of hero’s fighting to survive the chaos.
I write about how friendship and love can carry you through
situations that you might not otherwise survive. You will find my stories
exciting and steamy, but I am not an erotic writer. My stories fade to dark
when the steam begins to rise, but take it from me, the steam does rise and
emotions do soar.

True, a well written romantic story

REVIEW

TrueCover-GGrace

True is a story about true love. But I won’t give away who the characters that truly love each other are. This a book about real life situations, real life drama and real challenges couples face in daily basis. It is True. The book is written in present with many flashbacks that sometimes make you feel sad about the bad way some relations take. Gwendolyn Grace’s writting style is fast, easy to read and gets you connected with the characters. The story is full of twists of plot and it includes hot sexual situations. Honestly, I wouldn’t have asked for more from a romantic fiction book. I’m waiting for Gwendolyn Grace’s next book which coming out early next year.

Read more about True on ‘A Book and a cup of coffee’.

I never thought I’d risk my true… my everything, but one mistake can change lives. True love is undeniable… but is it forever?

I knew something was different about Justin Rich. The way his eyes lingered a little longer on places they shouldn’t, his brazenness and suggestive double meanings excited me. I knew I was flirting with danger but I couldn’t seem to stop myself.

True love can make your heart soar. Secrets and lies can break it.

TEASERS

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT #1

“Look, Courtney, about what I said earlier…”

“It’s okay. Really. You don’t have to apologize. I should have said something…”

“I’m not apologizing.” He reaches me in two strides and places his hand under my chin, forcing me to look up at him. “I meant every word of it. I like you. I like you a lot, Courtney. I just can’t stand by and watch you be with someone who doesn’t…”

“Shh.” I put my hand to his mouth. “Stop.” He shook his head, trying to move my hand. “I don’t know what’s happening right now. Give me some time to sort this out. Okay. Please?”

Justin nodded and then lowered his head to plant a soft kiss on my cheek. When he pulled back his smile was full of understanding and hope before walking out of the front door. Why couldn’t I stop myself from envisioning something more with him.

Oh God. What Am I going to do?

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT #2

“Did you come like that for him?” Guilt broke through the post orgasmic haze as I focused my eyes on his face. The hurt and arousal taking turns flashing in his eyes. I answer his question honestly, never breaking contact.

“No.”

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

When Gwendolyn Grace is not daydreaming about fictional characters, she tries to be a fairly decent wife and an attentive mother. During the day she manages the office for a small maritime security company that fights pirates, just not the cool Johnny Depp kind. In her spare time, she is a blogger and book reviewer however writing has been her passion for as long as she can remember. True is her debut novel and hopefully the first of many to come.

‘Act Accordingly’ with C.E.Hansen

INTERVIEW
ACT ACCORDINGLY 

By C.E. Hansen
Release Date: July 16, 2014
Paperback, 472 pages

Genre: Erotic Romance/Adult/Fiction
Twenty-six-year-old Nic Maretta is having a bad year.
She just found out that the man she was in love with and planned to marry is just that, married. So she does what any normal woman would do. She gets drunk, brushes herself off and swears off love forever.
She is thankful to have a best friend that not only loves her, but accepts the new ‘Nic’. This new Nic has decided to live life on her own terms, mocking convention; as well as her own situations. It’s goodbye heartache and hello sexual freedom. After all, what’s good for the goose, is good for the woman who likes sex! Or something along those lines.
Until she accidentally bumps into Brendon…
He is immediately taken in by her beauty and tenacity. She is instantly turned on by his good looks and sex appeal.
One crazy night, one too many champagnes and way too many phone contacts, Nic throws caution to the wind and calls Brendon. To her surprise he comes running.
Game on! 

C.E.Hansen was kind enough to make a stop to our blog and answer to some questions.
First we asked her to describe herself:
“I’m just a mother, a wife and a dog lover, who has a passion for writing. I can’t stop. It fuels my fire so to speak. In fact, I couldn’t stop if I wanted to. The people inside my head literally wake me up in the middle of the night and are very forthright with their opinions on how my story should go. I listen only because they have not steered me wrong yet.

By day, I work in an upscale wine and gourmet food store. It’s a living…for now!”

  • Are your characters based on people you know?
    “They are to a degree. You can only write about people you know if you want them to come off as real to the readers. Whether they are loosely based on yourself, or someone you know, they need to have a little bit of ‘real’ in them. You can stretch the story, but if the people are real, flaws and all, the reader can relate to them.”
  • Which of your books is your most favourite?
    “I’d have to say It’s A Crime, because it was my first. It was also the hardest, for the same reason. I was also really pleased with It’s A Shame, as it wrapped up Grace and Cole’s story perfectly in my mind.”
  • Do you have a specific writing routine?
    “Yes, I actually do. It’s a very odd routine. I come home from work, get a glass of wine, sit on the sofa and open my laptop. My husband blasts the TV and I type away, lost in my own little world. It’s gotten so I can’t write without noise.”
  • What are your current projects?
    “I actually have three books started, one a thriller, one about a serial murderer and another erotic romance. I won’t give too much away, but suffice it to say, I’ve been a busy bee.
  • What’s next for you?
    “Now I have to concentrate on getting my books in front of as many readers as possible. Believe it or not, that is almost a full time job. That is why us writers love you bloggers, and readers. That equals reviews and that’s what we need the most.”
C.E. Hansen is an American writer who wrote her first romance novel at age fourteen when she discovered writing about boys and girls was way easier than actually having a relationship of her own. Since that time, her communication skills haven’t improved, but she likes to think her writing has. After earning an associate’s degree in literature from WC, she worked in a bus company, a law office and a wine/gourmet food shoppe, but she never abandoned writing.
She’s a proud mother of a beautiful daughter, lives in New Jersey with her husband and Maltese Zoe, and if she’s not working on her latest sexy story, you can find her reading, watching cable television, or indulging in her unhealthy addiction to chocolate.
C.E. Hansen’s debut novel IT’S A CRIME was released May 2013, her follow up novel IT’S A SHAME, was released November 11th, 2013.
Her latest, ACT ACCORDINGLY, takes a turn from her normal. Instead of a thriller/suspense, it is a romantic comedy with a healthy injection of spice!

Steve Fujita shows us how to Toe Up To 10K

INTERVIEW

Steve Fujita is a fighter. He has been through a life-changing situation and he came out a winner. Now Steve Fujita wants to share his experience with the world and help others who find themselves in a similar situation .

Steven Fujita is a writer living in Long Beach, California. He was born in Los Angeles, California, and attended college in Washington, D.C. In 2010, he published a novella, titled, Sword of the Undead, which is Bram Stoker’s Dracula tale re-told, but the vampire being a Japanese samurai warlord.

In 2012, however, he fell ill to a virus, which caused meningitis, and as a result, he became paralyzed from the waist down. Doctor’s did not guarantee he would walk again. Even if he did, it would take about two years. Within six months, however, he was walking with a cane, and fifteen months later, he was walking mostly without a cane.

Steve Fujita wrote a book about his recovery process, Toe Up to 10K, A Journey of Recovery from Spinal Cord Injury.

019_1

“I’m just a regular person who has the same everyday interests as others, such as reading, watching movies, sports, etc. I went to work each day for an employer – but I have always liked to write, and finally, in 2010, I published my first book” he says when asked about himself.

And he continues:

“I had always wanted to make a living as a writer, but found the field difficult to break into as a young man, and put it off to the side. But with technological progress, and costs of publishing manageable for the everyday person, I started writing in my spare time. I enjoy reading about people, writing about people, and imagining “what-ifs,” which is a great way to plot novels.”

***

“My characters are generally not based on people I know, but there are times when I place much of my own personality into a character.”

***

“My genre of books is supernatural fantasy: vampires, zombies, monsters. I prefer the word “fantasy” to “horror,” as did the late actor, Peter Cushing, because horror is found in real life, but vampires, zombies, and such are make-believe.”

front_only_tentative_edited1

“The favorite of my own books is the latest, “Toe Up to 10K,” which is about my recovery from spinal cord injury, from the Intensive care Unit, to rolling around in a wheelchair, to walking on my own power. Not only is it a personal story, but I hope for my story to help others who find themselves in a similar situation, not only through inspiration and motivation, but also to know what to expect when this type of injury occurs.”

***

“I don’t have a strict writing routine, but I always have projects in mind, and I do try to do a blog post once a day during the weekdays.”

***

“My future projects are to return to writing supernatural fiction. I continue to recover from my spinal cord injury, so perhaps a follow-up book on that subject is in order.”

Mike Robertson has the key to creativity

INTERVIEW

OK, you have one peach, one pizza and one platypus, what do you do with them?

You don’t know, do you? So, let Mike Robertson tell you.

But who exactly is Mike Robertson…

ITMO_sm_sq_headshot1

“I’m a professional speaker, author, musician and storyteller. The main topic I speak about is creativity: how you can become more creative and some of the amazing changes you can experience once you do learn to think in a creative way.”

– Tell us more about your books…

“I’ve written three books, all very different from each other. My first one was a collection of short, humorous, inspiring essays. The second book was a historical novel about the birth of the motion picture business. My latest book, though, is The Pizza, the Peach & the Platypus, an expansion and accompaniment for my signature keynote speech on creativity. In the book, I’m able to go into much greater detail and share more personal stories of cool changes in my life that have happened because I got off the beaten path and used my own creative abilities.”

P3_cover_20

– Do you have a specific writing routine?

“The writing routine that seems to work for me is sort of a quota system. When I wrote my novel, I set myself a requirement of three pages a day. Regardless of quality, if I actually typed three pages, I could stop if I wanted. In just a couple of months, I had a great story. For this book, I tried to do 1500 words a day…but there were some days I hit 4000 words, just because I was on a roll.”

– What’s next for you?

“I already have the idea for my next book and will begin writing it very soon. In the meantime, I’ll be traveling and speaking to audiences about the current book. It’s a great feeling when someone in the audience is inspired to do something new as a result of hearing me speak. I’ve heard from people who did standup comedy, started their own business, or wrote their first book—at the age of 85—and that has been very gratifying.”

‘City Break In Athens’ means value for money

REVIEW

YiaSuCover

I’m planning my autumn trip to Athens and I bought this travel guide because it’s written by native Athenians. I found it very helpful not only because it has maps of central Athens and the Acropolis but mostly because it pays much attention to local’s favourite hot spots, sightseeing and restaurants.
This pocket guide is full of tips about where to go, how to go and what to see whatever your interests. It includes six detailed itineraries for walking tours to all archaeological sites, central Athens, Piraeus, the coastline plus an excursion to Cape Sounion. It’s full of historical facts and I was pleased to discover it includes a very informative chapter about the Acropolis and the Parthenon.
It also includes detailed information about transportation, lists with recommended restaurants, hotels and museums, and some useful phrases in Greek. As for the maps, they are also posted on their website and they’re downloadable. In overall I believe ‘City Break In Athens’ is value for money.

ALL THE WRONG PLACES

“In life I had suffered a thousand deaths, and in the midst of death I encountered true life.  I had looked in all the wrong places, until there, on a hill of ivy, I was found.”

 

Driving aimlessly through the stormy suburbs of San Francisco, Casey Wheeler is fleeing from her abusive and unfaithful husband with her five year old daughter Maddy asleep in the backseat.  With nowhere to go and no one to turn to, Casey loses control of her emotions and her car, crashing into a hillside below a mortuary.  Desperately seeking shelter, and more so independence, she finds herself taken in by the mortuary director who apprehensively offers her a job and a place to live.  As she stumbles through the ins and outs of her new and morbid surroundings, Casey is forced into a hostile custody battle with her relentless and increasingly violent husband.  In the midst of all the chaos, she finds a new family and even love in the eccentric and protective people of Golden Oaks Funeral Home.  But just when she has found all she could hope for, she will have to fight to the death to protect it.

This semiautobiographical story of a single-mother and her journey to self-discovery, independence and a true understanding of love will keep readers captivated and yearning for more.
