Hidden Deep by Amy Patrick
Hidden Deep by Amy Patrick He isn't supposed to even talk to a human, much less fall in love with one... Ryann Carroll has just run into the guy who saved her life ten years ago.

After her father's affair, all Ryann wants is to escape the family implosion fallout and find a little peace. She also wouldn't mind a first date that didn't suck, but she's … [Read more...]

Sinful Cinderella by Anita Valle
Sinful Cinderella by Anita Valle I'm not who they think I am. A docile girl who meekly obeys her stepmother and stepsisters. Some kind of sick angel who cheerfully bears their mistreatment. That's what I WANT them to think. Because then they won't suspect what I'm really up to. The ball, the prince - it's all part of my plan to come out on top. Stepmother and her demented daughters will pay for every floor I have scoured, every sneer I have borne. They don't know about the white magic, how I … [Read more...]

Interview with Author – Eydis
About Eydis: I wish I could write down something exciting in my author bio. Unfortunately, I live a rather mundane life in Reykjavik, Iceland. And spend far too much time cleaning. Maybe I find it difficult to write an author bio because I don't really see myself as an author. Stories haunt me, I feel a need to write them down, sometimes I can, sometimes I can't. Are they any good? I don't know. That's for you to decide. What inspires you to write? Often my ideas come from … [Read more...]
