Uncle Vernon by Jenny Twist

When Alison spends an illicit weekend with her boyfriend she finds she has bitten off more than she can chew. Gary’s household is eccentric to say the least, and there is something very peculiar about Uncle Vernon.

Uncle Vernon only comes to visit at Halloween and he spends a lot of time in the cellar. Nobody knows what he does down there. But he’s perfectly harmless, really, isn’t he. Isn’t he?

Broken by Design by Koni Atencio

When a family vacation becomes a family tragedy, will Nicole prove strong enough to protect her daughter and save her husband? Or will she give in to her fear and fall apart? When Nicole’s husband, Adam, mysteriously disappears on the morning of their final day of vacation, he leaves her stranded at a campsite three-hundred miles from home with their daughter, two horses, a dead cell phone, an impending winter storm, and no transportation. In Nicole’s desperate search to find Adam before the snow buries them all, she discovers the strange secrets of a small town, the necessity of hope, and a source of untapped courage. Nicole learns that although breaking hurts, it also awakens her sense of compassion as she bonds with some colorful characters who deepen her faith and change her life.

Long Snows Moon by Stacey Darlington

A young socialite finds herself hurled from her comfort zone of luxury and self-denial into the esoteric world of animal magic. When her pet wolf/husky hybrid, Long Snows Moon, plummets from her car window to the forest below, Devon Danforth must explore the haunted woods to find her. During her drunken stumble through the forest, Devon finds love in the arms of Jameson Jordan, the Native American girl she met as a teen during a family skiing vacation. During her sexual awakening, Devon discovers her own animal nature and her wild family lineage.

 

Shadow Trail by LuAnn Nies

An adventurous weekend in the north woods of Minnesota turns terrifying when Crystal Harrington loses sight of the other snowmobilers during a blizzard. Racing to catch up, her sled careens over the side of a steep embankment, threatening her survival. Not only is Crystal forced to face the frigid cold and approaching darkness, she’s confronted on the trail by a large wolf and mysterious figure that resembles Sasquatch.

 

Unfinished Business by H. Paul Doucette

They say that the sins of our past have a way of catching up to us, and that sometimes payment comes due.

The war was over and Jack Reilly had a nice life working for him—a successful P.I. Agency with a steady flow of non hazardous cases to fend off the wolves. He also had the love of a good woman to give it all some purpose.

Then one day he receives a call from his old boss from when he was an M.P. in the army stationed in France near the end of the war. It was not just a social call.

An old enemy he thought had swung on the gallows had escaped from prison and, at last report, hooked up with the mafia and was heading this way.

Jack remembered the threat made at the end of the trial to exact revenge on him, and his partner, for destroying his criminal business and killing his brother.

Was there enough time to get ready?

Hattie’s Preacher by Sherry Derr-Wille

The Outlaw Series – Book One

David Long gave up a promising law career when God called him to preach the word. Little did he know the red headed pianist at his church in Mortonville would capture his heart.

Hattie Fairchild knew the only proper place for a proper maiden lady to play the piano was in church. Even though she didn’t believe, she found she could ignore the minister’s words by staying hidden away in the balcony and reading her novels during the sermons.
