The Undisputed Series with swish EBOOK.jpg

Undisputed:

Sidney O’Neil isn’t my type. While I spend my nights out drinking at the trendiest clubs in town, she spends hers taking care of her sick nephew. She is nothing I thought I wanted, yet she’s somehow become the one thing I need.

But what happens when the world is tipped on end and I’m no longer who she needs?

How do I convince her that we’re worth the fight when all she knows is defeat?

Sometimes, the toughest fight of your life is outside the cage.

Undone: An Outside the Cage Novella:

Breccan and Sidney set off on the adventure of a lifetime. But, with every new excursion, a new set of problems arise.

They may be doing it for all the right reasons, but they’re losing themselves with each task completed. Can they keep their promises without ruining each other?

Unraveled:

When my job, my livelihood, and my passion are suddenly snatched away from me, I’m left scrambling to keep my head above water. Desperate, I’m forced to walk into the last place I ever thought I’d go.

Rebecca Toler’s living the dream––or so I thought.

Beautiful, funny, and tough as nails, she answers to no one.

It’s time to take my life back, and I’m starting with her.

But, as I’ve learned over the years, sometimes the toughest fight of your life is outside the cage.

Undaunted: An Outside the Cage Novella:

Our life was crazy, but we were happy. But when the kid that Ryker had trained for years goes missing, we realized that our lives wouldn’t be complete without him.

The obstacles that we were forced to face were challenging, but if there’s one thing we knew, it was that there was nothing that was too daunting for Ryker and Rebecca Hawke.

“Something to Savour: A Jewel Sisters Romance” by Monique McDonell

Blurb:

It’s hard to avoid anyone in small town Caudal Bay, especially the off-limits love of your life but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try – at least that’s what Emme believes, it’s a pity she’s failing so miserably. 

The two things that annoy winemaker Emme Smoth most are local publican Gavin Crawley and weddings. So when the town tourism committee sends them to the city to host the local booth at a Wedding Expo it’s her worst nightmare come to life, especially when there’s a mix up and they have to share a hotel room. It’s not that she doesn’t like Gav it’s just that she has a secret that would break both their hearts.

Gavin is delighted to finally have Emme all to himself so they can finally work out what went wrong between them all those years ago. He even thinks he might be making progress until they get back to Caudal Bay she quits her job and starts making plans to move away leaving the clock ticking for him   to show her there’s something real between them.

As Emme focusses on keeping Gav at a distance while being the best reluctant bridesmaid she can for her sister’s wedding Gav races to convince her to stay.in town.

If you believe in second chances, grand crazy romantic gestures and that sometimes love can conquer all then Something to Savour is the sweet, small town romance you’ve been looking for.

The third book in the Jewel Sisters series Something worth Saving can be read as a stand alone novel but the series is best enjoyed in order.

  • Something of a Spark
  • Something to Sing About
  • Something to Savour
  • Something Worth Saving

About author, Monique McDonell:

I am an Australian author who writes contemporary women’s fiction including chick lit and romance. 

I have written all my life especially as a child when I loved to write short stories and poetry. At University I studied Creative Writing as part of my Communication degree. Afterwards I was busy working in public relations I didn’t write for pleasure for quite a few years although I wrote many media releases, brochures and newsletters. (And I still do in my day-job!)

When I began to write again, I noticed a trend – writing dark unhappy stories made me unhappy. So, I decided to write a novel with a happy ending, and I have been writing happy stories ever since. 

I am the author of over 22 books including five standalone novels and two novellas including Mr. Right and Other Mongrels Flight Bound and Hearts Afire. I have also written three series; the Upper Crust Series, the Jewel Sisters Series and the Courtside Romance series. In 2019 I will have books included in three multi author series; No Brides Club Series and the Cinnamon Bay Romance series and an as yet untitled series that takes place on a cruise. Many of my novels focus on an Australian characters meeting and visiting US characters.  In 2015 had a piece on writing chick lit featured in the successful Australian non-fiction book Copyfight.

I live on Sydney’s Northern Beaches with my husband and daughter.

Dangerous Magic, an all-new cozy mystery from New York Times bestselling author Emma Hart writing as Evie Hart, is available now!

DANGEROUS MAGIC - NEW.jpg

It’s not every day you have to return to your hometown to bind your borderline-poltergeist grandmother to the family property.

Unfortunately, today is that day for Avery Thorn.

All Avery wants is to report the binding to the Witch Council so she can fulfill her obligation, but finding a dead body and the Head of the Council on the brink of death isn’t in her plan.

Especially when she’s pegged as the number one suspect.

Now, it’s down to Avery and her cousins—and her sassy feline familiar—to figure out who tried to murder the Head of the Council. Magically bound to find the culprit, the last thing she needs is the new detective getting under her toes.

Unfortunately for her, she finds herself colliding with the hot cop more than she wants. And since her familiar hates him, it’s not always pleasant.

New magic and a devastating tragedy threaten to derail their investigations—but not quite as much as the person who isn’t happy they’re involved…

Excerpt: I had half an hour, no more than that, to get my life in order so my sisters would never suspect how unprepared I was for this morning. I kicked the back door shut, dumping the plastic grocery bags onto the kitchen counter, easing the ache in my arms. If Johanna were hosting this morning, she’d have something homemade baking in her oven, the appealing aroma filling her immaculate kitchen. Well, one thing was for certain—I was not Johanna. Winston’s frantic barks sounded from upstairs. Seconds later, he was scampering around my feet, his sudden appearance meaning I’d forgotten to lock him in his kennel. Again. “Bad dog.” A halfhearted reprimand. “You’re not supposed to be down here.” I pulled items from the plastic bags. Please don’t let me have forgotten anything during my mad dash through the grocery store. Cream for Johanna’s and my coffee—although she was going to have to make do with my Keurig coffeemaker, not French press. A small box of sugar so Payton could enjoy her coffee with the preferred three heaping spoonfuls per cup. A premade fruit salad. Blueberry muffins. Keurig pods. Nothing fancy. But at least I wouldn’t look like a complete failure. I suppose to a casual observer, Johanna, Payton, and I—the three remaining Thatcher sisters—appeared successful. And yet, while we might claim certain professional and romantic achievements, we still struggled to find our way as sisters. At times Pepper’s words—the ones Payton had shared with Johanna and me several months ago—seemed more of a taunt than an encouragement. “Sometimes you just have to forget all the other stuff and remember we’re sisters.” Shouldn’t a role you acquired at birth be simple? Something you learned to do, along with walking and talking and navigating adolescence? But then Pepper’s death at sixteen splintered our already-precarious bonds. I selected three mugs from a kitchen cupboard. This was no time to try to unravel the complicated dynamics between me, Johanna, and Payton—not when they’d be here any minute. And not with so much riding on this morning. It’s funny how much hope people put into a cup of coffee. Social media—Facebook and Instagram and Twitter and Pinterest and even millions of people’s text messages around the world—overflow daily with memes and GIFs lauding the miracle qualities of coffee. Coffee is the gasoline of life. All I need is coffee and mascara. Behind every successful person is a substantial amount of coffee. I drink coffee for your protection. Drink coffee and do good. And now . . . now coffee would be the glue that bonded the three of us together.
Check out the first book in this series! Things I Never Told You (The Thatcher Sisters #1) Things I Never Told You As old wounds reopen and possible tragedy awaits, the Thatcher sisters must decide if they will pull together or be driven further apart.

BOOK BLITZ: “In the Swim of Things”

Leave a Comment

“In the Swim of Things” by Tracie Banister

Blurb:

A sexy, sun-soaked tale about a tail-wearing girl who makes a lot of waves—perfect for fans of Lauren Layne, Meghan Quinn, and Christina Lauren.

Ocean-loving Kyra Goodwin had to give up her dream of becoming the female Jacques Cousteau in order to take care of her father and brother, but being a mermaid at the Cape Cod Aquarium is pretty fintastic as far as alternative careers go.

Of course, life as a half-fish/half-woman isn’t all sunken treasure and Ariel twirls. Kyra has to deal with perpetually pruney fingers, eyes irritated by saltwater, and bratty kids on the daily, plus her glam alter ego can make dating really weird. (So many men have pervy siren-of-the-sea fantasies!) When she meets hunky surfer Cade, and he’s into her without knowing what she does for a living, Kyra thinks she’s finally won the romance lottery.

Unfortunately, Kyra’s plans for a carefree summer of catching waves with her new boyfriend run aground when Sea Star Beach, a place that holds great sentimental value for her, is taken over by a big-city developer who wants to build an exclusive resort. Kyra’s crusade to save her beloved beach threatens both her job and her relationship with Cade as does her growing closeness with her irresistibly broody merwrangler, Declan, whose precocious daughter is intent on playing matchmaker.

When a new family drama arises just as Kyra receives an offer that would turn her greatest desire into reality, she’s torn. Will she do what’s expected of her, or dive in and follow her heart?

About the author: An avid reader and writer, Tracie Banister has been scribbling stories since she was a child, most of them featuring feisty heroines with complicated love lives like her favorite fictional protagonist Scarlett O’Hara. Her work was first seen on the stage of her elementary school, where her 4th grade class performed an original holiday play she penned. (Like all good divas-in-the-making, she also starred in and tried to direct the production.)

Tracie’s dreams of authorial success were put on the backburner when she reached adulthood and discovered that she needed a “real” job in order to pay her bills. Her career as personal assistant to a local entrepreneur lasted for 12 years. When it ended, she decided to follow her bliss and dedicate herself to writing full-time. She is the proud winner of the 2017 Independent Press Award (Romantic Comedy) and a Bronze Medal in the 2017 Readers’ Favorite Awards (Chick Lit).

In the Swim of Things is Tracie’s sixth novel and thanks to this book, she can now check another occupation off her fantasy list. She has no doubt that writing about a mermaid is much easier than actually being one!
