Where HAVE I been?

Good Sunday Morning!

Well, I've been laid out with a strained disc in my back.

I was unable to move my left arm for 3 days. 

Sadly it took til Friday for someone to XRay my back....

Or else I could have been back by Thursday or Friday.

Anywho...I'm wondering if I should share a SuperMom Sunday or just feature a book.

Mike's Way Back - Amy Gregory Cover Reveal!

Detective Mike Sterling walked away from his dream job telling himself it was to honor the promise he’d made his mother, while lying in a Chicago emergency room. A year later, he’s still fighting the demons that followed him back to his boyhood town. Taryn Watts is an award-winning designer, going from project to project, living from a suitcase. Her plan for Renland Kansas was the same as always. Go in, get the job done and get out, just the way she likes it. Growing up as a cop’s daughter, her every move was controlled. When she escaped to college she vowed to never fall in love with a cop –ever. Until she found herself sitting across from the ruggedly handsome stranger. Looking into Mike’s ice blue eyes they pulled her, called to her, but there was a haunting in them she knew too well. Mike is drawn to Taryn, her passion for her work and her stunning beauty left him breathless, but what surprises him most is the peace he feels when he’s near her. Maybe it’s because Tayrn is a temporary addition to his town and his secret is safe, or maybe it’s because she makes him feel safe. Mike knows he can’t keep up this charade and when Taryn moves to Renland for an extended stay he can’t hide the truth any longer. Can Taryn forget he’s a cop and give him her heart, or will his demons drive them apart?

THROUGH GLASS!

$.99 on Kindle

Dystopian/Dark Fantasy

Everyone remembered the day the sky went black. The day the sun was wiped from the sky. They remember the wind as it brought in the darkness; the way the earth shook and everything changed.

Everyone remembered the screams as the darkness ate those who were out in the open, those who had surrounded themselves by light, and those who made noise.

Everyone remembered the voice from the sky and the way food disappeared.

At least, that’s what I hoped. I hoped that there was an ‘everyone’ that would remember because I am not sure how many are left, how many survived. Or if anyone did.

I hoped that I wasn’t alone.

I remembered that day.

I remembered because it was the day I became alone.

It was the day that everything was perfect until the monsters took it away. Then the house went silent and the birds stopped singing. It was the day when everyone disappeared, everyone except the boy, the only person I have seen in two years.
The boy I talk to through the glass.

Paranormal Romance
Delano Bowen has been a medical doctor for a very long time. More than 170 years, in fact. For much of that time, he’s been searching for a way to reverse the curse foisted on him by a vampress who sought to own him. With the emergence of medical technology, he now also aims to develop a vaccine to protect the vulnerable from predation by rogue vampires. After a century of searching, he thinks he's found the key to his vaccine – a surviving descendent of the Merzetti family. The Merzettis were virtually hunted to extinction over the years by rogue vampires who feared the anti-vampirism properties in their blood.

A foundling, nurse Ainsley Crawford has no idea that she carries a genetic gift, and Delano aims to keep it that way. He must keep her close, and ignorant, for he can leave nothing to chance. He manipulates events to ensure her unwitting cooperation. But when Delano's arch enemy Radak Janecek mounts an all-out assault to destroy Delano and the fruits of his research, Delano is forced to draw Ainsley even closer to protect her. Inevitably, the attraction that has sparked between them from the first flares hot and urgent. Ainsley sees no reason why that attraction shouldn't be consummated, but Delano knows succumbing to it is not just ill-advised; it could literally be the death of him.

First thoughts after....
I'd like more but it did end very nicely!

How distracted did I get?
Merzetti Effect is an action packed paranormal romance that is addictive to the very end!  The story is fast paced and a fascinating twist on Vampires.  There are so many ups and downs and twists and turns it's a fun joyride.  I was so wrapped up I almost sat in the parking lot at work to read!

I give Merzetti Effect......

4 Stars
Romance
Tate Kilbourn was Bunny Bergen's long-forgotten, secret high school crush. But that was 24 years ago, and a lot has happened since. Devastated by a nasty divorce, trying to juggle kids, bills and her new job - not to mention a boatload of insecurities - the last thing Bunny needs is to fall for Tate again. But then she finds herself working with him, and gee, he sure did grow sexier with age...

Quiet and deeply private, Tate barely knew that Bunny was alive in high school. And now that he's back in Rustic Woods, he has a million reasons to fight his growing attraction for this gorgeous woman with the less-than-stellar reputation. His life is too complicated for a relationship, much less a relationship with a woman like Bunny Bergen.

On the surface, Tate and Bunny appear to be an unlikely match. But, as Bunny knows all too well, appearances can be deceiving.

Kiss Me, Tate is the first book in the new Love in Rustic Woods Series, a romantic spin-off from Karen Cantwell's Barbara Marr Murder Mysteries. If you are a fan of Cantwell's zany, problem-prone protagonist, Barbara Marr, you'll remember lovable Bunny Bergen from the fun and hilarious mystery, Citizen Insane.
