This is a great idea, Jeffrey! Thanks for setting this up.
The only thing Sunny Martin craves more than blood is companionship – until she meets Nicolas, the enigmatic leader of a hidden society. Their passion, tainted with betrayal, violence, and murder, reveals a shocking truth behind her savage nature and drives Sunny toward an agonizing choice between her heart and the last remnant of her human soul.

And can she do it when she herself gets thrust into the spotlight?
It's adult paranormal suspense, and is available primarily at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Smashwords.

http://www.amazon.com/Journeys-Wonder...
www.journeysofwonder.com
Journeys of Wonder is a new anthology of genre fiction. We’ve assembled three talented writers to bring you five chilling tales that are guaranteed to keep you up at night – or at least make you turn on the lights.
Featured in this first volume:
The Door: Six people are stuck in a room with no memory of how they got there while a fear of the unknown keeps them from opening the only exit they have.
Blackout: A terrifying tale of a young woman whose memory is shattered and a creepy neighbor who is not all that he seems.
Infinity: Two brothers, forced to travel through time to save the world from an unspeakable evil, have little idea of what they have actually gotten themselves into.
Eye of the Wolf: A young girl struggles against the power of the full moon as she tries to hide her deadly secret from her family.
Afterdeath: In a future where our journey beyond death is no longer a mystery, the promise of eternal love waits, unless you break the rules.
I've been waiting for Amazon to match the price and they finally did! Woohoo! From a Far Land: Jaben's Rift book 1 is finally free for Kindle (and Nook and at Smashwords).It's currently sitting at #10 for Epic Fantasy (not sure if it's really "epic" or not, but there it is).
Kindle: http://www.amazon.com/From-Land-Jaben...
Smashwords: http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/...
Nook: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/from-...
I'm not sure if the Nook version is the revised version though (just a few corrections, nothing major). I know the cover isn't the new cover.
**I got a Halloween treat. It moved up to #5 in Epic Fantasy. (Enjoying it while it lasts, lol.)
I've got a free book promo on Amazon this weekend. It's a humorous travel book with a political twist, brand new and very well received so far.

Quest is still free on Amazon through tonight yet...
http://www.amazon.com/Quest-A-World-H...
Two powers, two quests, two fates...two mortals struggling against the very forces with which they might have aligned themselves, had they been given the opportunity to choose. Two mortals, light and dark, locked into one intense battle. A battle of which the end has already been written in blood. A blood not their own, just as the battle is not their own. And yet, they must fight.
The year is 2E739, the second millennium since Euroclydonus, the last epic battle to shake Wundyrr's foundations. Two thousand years of peace--at least between mortal and spiritual elements--and now, the hidden script of a writing called simply "the prophecy" threatens to immerse the world of Wundyrr once more in a hideous battle, the likes of which could very well rival the infamous Euroclydonus.
Tiernan Lebonn is the single last link between Wundyrr and vitality. Should he fail in his impossible quest to seal evil once more within its fiery prison, the shadow will rise up to devour not only him, but also the world he calls home.
His counterpart, Shiloh of Cheokk, has been steeped in darkness since the day she was born and is bent on winning her own glory through the very disaster Tiernan is trying to prevent.
For either one to claim victory, they must completely lose themselves within the essence of their quests and trust that the powers to which they have surrendered will bear them up in triumph.
But as with any battle, only one can claim the victory. Or perhaps neither can.

Unfortunately, his enemies want him too. Admiral Neopol Jones will torture him to unlock the secret of his power. The Ferals would enslave him. The influential Lord Andros just wants him dead.

Extended description:
Can a drug-addicted sorcerer sober up long enough to save a kidnapped girl and his own Duchy? In an alternate 18th century Germany where magic is real and paganism never died, Lothar is in the bonds of nepenthe, a powerful drug that gives him ecstatic visions. It has also taken his job, his friends, and his self-respect. Now his old employer has rehired Lothar to find the man's daughter, who is in the grip of her own addiction to nepenthe. As Lothar digs deeper into the girl's disappearance, he uncovers a plot that threatens the entire Duchy of Anhalt, and finds the only way to stop it is to face his own weakness.

My friend and author, Ray Ellis, is offering his Novel "Notorious"
for free download from Amazon on Friday and Saturday, September 27th and 28th.Notorious is an exciting and gritty crime thriller, with a Christian theme, and a touch of romance.
Check it out at: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A1SUH36/
Ray brings his experiences as a veteran police officer and a pastor together to tell a gripping and exciting story.
Personal note from the Author:
I was a rookie cop when I first heard the phrase N.H.I. (the subtitle of Notorious and cop lingo for No Humans Involved), but over the past 23 years I've watched it play out time and again. In a cop's world there are always at least two sides-- two types of people-- us and them; but somewhere in between, lies the dark gray world where those who are in a different group, N.H.I. exist. This is my attempt to reveal that world and explain the cop-heart to those who perhaps have never seen it up close and personal; in a world where there are sometimes No Humans Involved. Notorious, book one of the Nate Richards Mystery Series.
is currently pricematched on http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00C8GBAZ8/

I'm offering my post-apocalyptic story The Scavenger for free on Amazon for the next five days.
http://www.amazon.com/Scavenger-Toxic...
This story is a 67-page teaser for my Toxic World series, which starts with the novel
. The Scavenger a standalone story, but it gives a different perspective on some of the places and characters that appear in Radio Hope.The blurb is below:
In a world shattered by war, pollution, and disease, a lone scavenger discovers a priceless relic from the Old Times.
The problem is, it's stuck in the middle of the worst wasteland he knows--a contaminated city inhabited by insane chem addicts and vengeful villagers. Only his wits, his gun, and an unlikely ally can get him out alive.
Set in the Toxic World series introduced in the novel Radio Hope, this 10,000-word story explores more of the dangers and personalities that make up a post-apocalyptic world that's all too possible.
I'd like to get it in front of as many eyeballs as possible. So please, between now and Tuesday, April 8, feel free to share, like, tweet, etc
Wave Singers by Echo Fox is free from today to 10th November, so download it now to read over the holidays!
