Par for Cinderella by Petie McCarty



Par for Cinderella
by Petie McCarty

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:

Billionaire Aidan Cross longs to escape his life of celebrity and become a regular guy, if only for a brief time. His chance comes when his yacht breaks down near quaint Cypress Key, Florida—the site of his planned five-star golf resort. The golf resort no one in town wants.

Casey Stuart has given up her dream of escaping to the big city. She refuses to desert her uncle, even when he hires the new stranger in town to replace her at their golf course. Casey vows to steer clear of the stranger called Aidan and the danger their inescapable chemistry provokes. Aidan’s stay is temporary, and falling for him promises only heartbreak.

When Casey discovers Cypress Key’s mayor is making underhanded business deals, she ends up on the wrong side of the powerful autocrat. Aidan steps in to rescue her, but secrets from his past threaten to bogey their new-found relationship.


Excerpt:

Aidan hurriedly finished his sandwich and chips, anxious to get back to the clinic to check on Casey, Frank’s warning notwithstanding.

Frank got the message. They swiftly locked up, climbed into the truck, and hustled back to the clinic. Oddly, the back of Aidan’s neck prickled like it always did when danger lurked nearby. He glanced over at Frank, but the man just looked grim again, seemingly as anxious to get back to Casey as Aidan was. He tossed off the weird prickling sensation as leftover adrenaline and nerves. Until he and Frank stepped into the clinic.

A barrel-chested, gray-haired law officer stood in the middle of the waiting room. The embroidered stitching over his pocket read, Sheriff Sam Watson. “You Aidan?” he asked.

He nodded, the neck-prickling expanded to full danger mode.

“What’s your last name?”

“Why?”

“I need to see some identification.”

“Why?” Aidan asked again.

He probably wouldn’t have been difficult if he didn’t have a crack team of lawyers in his back pocket, which was all his back pocket held at the moment since he’d gone and left his ID and wallet on the yacht.

“Because I asked,” Watson snarled.

Aidan didn’t care for the belligerent attitude. “It’s Doe,” he said, just to be stubborn.

The sheriff glowered. “Aidan . . . Doe, you’re under arrest for assault."

Watson handcuffed him, read him his rights, and then marched him straight out the door to the waiting cruiser.

Aidan didn’t know which felt worse. Being arrested for the first time in his life or the look of anger and betrayal on Frank’s face.

My Review: 

This was a sweet, cozy mystery with the added perf of my favorite sport - golf!  Aiden is a billionaire who is planning a golf resort in a charming Florida town . He wants to be able to get away from his billionaire persona, just for a little while, and when his yacht breaks down near his future golf course, he grabs his chance to hit the town "incognito". He gets into a fight with some guy on the docks and shoves him into the water - enter Casey and her uncle Frank - who bail out the handsome stranger - even though they don't know who Aiden really is. Uncle Frank owns a struggling little golf course & Aidan goes to work at the Frank's course as a way to pay for bail and court costs. Casey loves her family golf course, so you can see where she won't want Aiden building his five star golf resort. Casey is our Cinderella girl, complete with wicked (well, awful) stepmother and stepsister. She's an activist, fighting against the golf resort, and she's just a generally all around nice (and beautiful) girl. Aiden has daddy problems - he gave up a promising golf pro career to work in his father's business, so not advertising who is is is great at first - until he meets and falls hard for Casey - and there he's stuck. Casey loathes (although she's never met) the real Aiden. This was a nice twist on the Cinderella story with likeable characters. The  golf part of the story was an added attraction but didn't take away from the romance between Aiden and Casey.

The Crying of Ross 128 by David Allan Hamilton


The Crying of Ross 128
by David Allan Hamilton

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GENRE: Science Fiction




~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

America has splintered into various independent republics after a brutal civil war. Against this backdrop, space exploration is on the cusp of new technological breakthroughs. Jim Atteberry, a mid-30s English professor at City College in San Francisco, spends his free time listening for alien signals on the amateur radio astronomy bands. His life as a single parent to his precocious daughter is turned upside-down when he hears an intelligent cry for help from the Ross 128 system and realizes we are not alone. This signal unleashes a chain of events pitting Jim and his brilliant, mysterious colleague Kate against a power-hungry scientist with his own secret agenda. Jim must learn the truth about the signal, the strange disappearance of his wife Janet, and the meaning of true love before it’s too late in this first contact thriller.


Excerpt:

Whitt continued talking while he worked. “So, there are the two Americas, our own government of course, the Russians, Indians, Chinese... not to mention those terrorist groups out there who would love to exploit our human fears about hostile aliens and such.”

I hadn’t thought about all that.”

I’m sure if you spend any time at all on this question, you’d come up with a list of 50 organizations all wanting to know how you discovered the signal, and how to use that for their own goals.”

Whitt replaced the cover on the computer and wiped his hands on his coat. “There’s someone else you may want to consider, too. Someone closer to home as it were.”

Who’s that?”

I hesitate to say because I recognize how close you are.” He put his tools back in a small pouch.

Who is it, Dr. Whitt?”

How well do you know Kate Braddock? I mean, how well do you really know her?”

Atteberry threw his head back and laughed. “That’s insane! I trust her more than anyone in the world.”

Oh, I understand, truly, I do. But the work she did in the past was highly specialized and top secret. Where does she come from? What kind of dubious alliances has she forged over the years? In short, she may have been playing you all along.”

No, no, I don’t believe that for a second.”

Fair enough, Mr. Atteberry, but if you’re considering who could be behind this mysterious tracer, I think you have to consider all possibilities. Even the ones that appear impossible.”

The Baby Plan by Joan Carnay



This post is part of a virtual book tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. Joan Carney will be awarding a $25 Amazon or Barnes and Noble GC to a randomly drawn winner via rafflecopter during the tour. Click on the tour banner to see the other stops on the tour.

The itch of ‘baby lust’ has prickled just under the surface of Tessa’s skin since she turned thirty. Five years have passed since her thirtieth birthday, and her obsessive nature has stoked the minor irritation into a full-blown fertility frenzy. She’s given up waiting for the right man to put a ring on her finger and, instead, decides to actively seek out a man with the right genes who will give her the child she wants with no further involvement. Love wasn’t in the plan, but Karma had other ideas.

Read an Excerpt:

“I’m going to have a baby.” Spoken out loud for the first time, those words sent a rush of adrenaline through her veins. Warmth swelled from her heart as the vision that had taken center stage in her dreams for the last five years, captured the spotlight in her mind’s eye. Her arms circled her own body, aching to cradle that bundle of cooing softness.

Owen’s fork remained suspended in mid-air inches from his open mouth, his face frozen and pale blue eyes wide and staring. It took a moment for him to regain his composure enough to speak.

“You’re what? Are you sure?” He shook his head, put his fork down and rested his back against the seat. Tessa was sure the incoherent mumbles that followed were a litany of swear words, but she stayed calm.

His gaze scoured the ceiling as his voice groped for a public-appropriate response. “How did this happen, Tess? You, of all people. I can’t believe you’d let yourself get into this predicament. You never told me you were seeing anyone. Who is he? Does he know? Are you in love with him?”

Tessa shook her head to focus as much as to explain. “No, no I’m not pregnant now. I mean I plan to get pregnant.”

Her breath stilled then released as the panicked expression on Owen’s face softened to one of mere annoyance. But she wasn’t out of the woods yet. She’d only started to lay out her plan. Stalling for time, Tessa pushed the chopped antipasto salad around the plate with her fork.

“I’ve been thinking about this for a long time, Owen, and I’ve made up my mind. You only need you to back me up when it comes time to tell Mom.”


About the Author:

The Fortress by Madeleine Romeyer Dherbey


The Fortress
by Madeleine Romeyer Dherbey
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: WWII Historical
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:  The war has not made much of difference in Alix’s life. Her father has seen to it that she grows up unaware, unworried, but safe in her tiny village under the cliffs of the Vercors. All around her he has built a fortress whose walls are impregnable—until the 27th of April, 1944. That day he makes a stupid mistake up on the cliff, and the walls of the Fortress start crashing down. Reality breaks into Alix’s life with unrelenting violence, unforeseen possibilities. From now on, every decision she makes will mean life or death. 

Six weeks before D-Days, a thousand kilometers from the beaches of Normandy.

There are no generals in the French Vercors, just a handful of men and women against the Nazi war machine. They come from Bretagne, Paris, and Slovenia, and the villages up on the cliff. They are the Fortres

Excerpt: When she looked up, the cart had rounded the curve, and the way ahead was wide open. In a minute they would leave the cliff Madeleine Romeyer Dherbey 14 behind. She stopped the horses and turned around, expecting to see her father on top of the log pile. “Papa?” she called. There was no response. Her eyes darted from one place to another. On the wall against the blue sky, behind the cart, down the road, as far as it went along the rock face. “Papa?” she called again. He was there a second ago…right there, he was standing right there…. “Papa,” she cried. “Where are you?” Then she saw Mikko, two paws on the wall, sniffing. And her hands started to shake. “Papa,” she said, but no sound came out. “Papa, come back.”

7 Polyamory Myths It's Time to Stop Believing


7 Polyamory Myths It's Time to Stop Believing, TARA STRUYK, Glamour Magazine, 1 February 2018

HTTPS://WWW.GLAMOUR.COM/STORY/7-POLYAMORY-MYTHS-ITS-TIME-TO-STOP-BELIEVING




There’s a typical romance trajectory most of us grew up believing in: Date around a little, find The One, settle into a committed and monogamous relationship, and live happily ever after (while maintaining a sizzling hot sex life, naturally). But as anyone who’s ever dated before can attest, that’s surprisingly hard to pull off! So maybe the problem isn’t with ourselves, but with the narrative we’ve been told to play into. According to one 2016 study, about 20 percent of people are exploring another kind of happy ending—the kind that involves multiple relationships with multiple people.
You’ve no doubt heard of nonmonogamy, and while there are many different forms of it, polyamory—the practice of having more than one romantic or sexual partner at the same time—is definitely gaining the most visibility in popular culture. It was the fourth most frequently searched relationship term on Google in 2017. But even if we’re aware that polyamory is a thing, plenty of us don’t understand how it actually works. In fact, even people who practice polyamory struggle against some of the assumptions about what it means to be “poly.”
So let’s look at some of those assumptions and see whether they’re still relevant to the polyamory conversation, or if we should throw them to the wayside.
Myth 1: Polyamory is mostly about having a lot of sex.
It's easy to assume that the appeal of polyamory boils down to sexual relationships. After all, even die-hard monogamists tend to feel pangs of desire for others. It’s only natural. That said, the first thing most poly people will tell you is that they aren't into polyamory for the sex—or at least not just for the sex.
"Although poly entails a certain openness that I haven’t found in other relationship models, it’s not a free-for-all fuckfest," says writer Charyn Pfeuffer. "For me, it’s about cultivating meaningful, ongoing relationships with the potential for falling in love."
In fact, many polyamorous people build what they see as a sort of extended support network where some, but not all, of the connections involve a sexual component. "When I began my journey into polyamory, there was so much sex. SO. MUCH," says sex educator and Sex Ed A Go-Go host DirtyLola, 36. "What I found beyond the sex were friendships, a support system, and family. Many of the relationships I formed didn’t have a sexual element at all, but what they did have was a deep love and respect for one another."
And finally, some people get into polyamory because they’re interested in a romantic relationship without sex. "There are a lot of people in the polyamorous community who identify as [asexual],” says Dedeker Winston, author of The Smart Girl’s Guide to Polyamory. “They find polyamory appealing because they can still have an emotional, romantic relationship—or multiple relationships—but their partners aren't also forced to be asexual or celibate.”
Myth 2: It’s for people who don’t want to commit.
Traditional relationship mores dictate that we shouldn't spread ourselves too thin, and instead direct most of our attention, affection, and love toward our significant other—one significant other. But if you’ve ever struggled to squeeze your S.O. into your calendar, you can probably appreciate just how complicated this could get as the number of relationships you’re maintaining expands. This, in fact, is one of the key challenges of living a polyamorous life, one that most people attempt to manage through good communication, a clear effort to balance multiple partners’ needs and desires, and, for the sake of practicality, shared calendars.
"My capacity for loving my partners has deepened as time has passed. That doesn't mean that it's not difficult. But the resource that has proved to be the most finite and problematic isn't affection; it's time,” says Boston-based filmmaker Christopher McKenzie, 43.
Myth 3: Polyamory can never really work because humans are jealous by nature.
Sharing is hard, especially when it means giving up something that's important to you. Even so, many people assume that poly folks are above feeling jealous. They aren’t. The major difference, however, is that poly people learn to respond to feelings of envy with openness and curiosity, rather than shame.
"A lot of us get this idea of what it's like to be a perfect poly person, which we take to mean that you never feel jealousy and you're always perfectly happy about what your partner does. And that's not realistic," said Liz Powell, a sex therapist and speaker. "Humans are messy creatures. We have messy hearts that feel things strongly. That doesn't mean that you're doing it wrong or that you're bad at poly, it just means that you're having feelings. I think it's worth looking at those feelings and acting on what they are telling you."
Says McKenzie, "I still get bitten in the ass sometimes by jealousy, usually right as I think everything is going just fine. And it's almost always the result of poor communication—not going over concerns or fears with my wife or partner—because I don't want to rock the boat or have conflict.”
Myth 4: Orgies are the name of the game.
Not quite. In the same way that polyamory isn't all about sex, it also isn't all about group sex.
"Sure, group sex happens in certain relationships under certain circumstances, but there are plenty of poly people who never have group sex. And those who do don’t necessarily have it all the time," says Page Turner, 36, a relationship coach and writer of the blog Poly Land.
Plus, even when group sex does happen, it’s rarely the out-of-control, partner-swapping crush of naked bodies we often see in porn."Most of the more intensive sexual contact happens between members of a couple, and things are typically linked between the couples by groping or kissing,” Turner said. “So what you are seeing in a sea of swirling bodies is actually a handful of triads or couples getting it on with their usual partners.”
Myth 5: Polyamory is for commitment-phobes.
Nope, most poly people aren’t poly because they’re afraid to settle down. In fact, like a lot of pieces of the poly puzzle, things are a lot more complicated than that. "Being one of several partners [doesn't mean] that my partner isn't 'really' committed to our relationship, or that he can't 'be with me,’” said sex writer Anabelle Bernard Fournier. “He is with me. All the time. We just don't live together, and we're not married. Commitment is not a function of coliving. Commitment is about being there for the other person."
Myth 6: Poly people are more at risk for an STI.
Sex with a number of different partners ? Isn't that…risky? Well, it certainly could be, but what you may not know is that polyamorists tend to play it safe. Very safe.
"I’m actually slower to jump into bed with people than I was when I was single and looking to date monogamously," said Turner. "That’s because being polyamorous forces me to be very risk-aware in a way that I wasn’t when it was just my health I was considering."
In fact, Turner (half-jokingly) refers to the care and negotiation that must go into every new coupling as a "sex bureaucracy," one whereby each partner is bound by various agreements and protocols about the partners they have, the safe sex practices they use, and the STI testing they receive.
"Studies and surveys have shown that people in nonmonogamous relationships tend to behave in safer ways when it comes to safe sex practices," Winston said. "If I go out on a date with someone I'm going to sleep with for the first time, I have to have the conversation where I'm like, 'I'm sleeping with two other people, and these are the safe sex practices I'm using in those relationships, and these are the barriers and practices I'd like to use with you, and this is my STI status, and this is the STI status of the people I'm sleeping with.' This is all so that this person can give fully informed consent about what's going on in my entire intimate network. Contrast that with the way most people approach casual sex or casual dating, where people are less likely to openly address the fact that they're also sleeping with other people at all."
Myth 7: Polyamory practitioners never get attached to anyone.
People who practice polyamory tend to use the word abundance to describe the wealth of love, affection, and possibility that having multiple partners tends to bring to their life. The downside is that more love can also mean more potential for heartbreak. "With much love comes much heartache,” DirtyLola said. “It doesn’t matter how well you communicate, how good you are at meeting your partners’ needs and desires, or how strong you think your connection is, some things just aren’t meant to last.”
If there's one lesson here, beyond all the myth busting, it's that polyamory isn't one-size-fits-all. Or maybe it's that love isn't one-size-fits-all, and we can each choose to do it a little differently, in whatever way fits.
“For me, monogamy was never a perfect fit, or an even almost-perfect fit, like the half-size-too-small shoe you force your foot into because it was 50 perfect off at the Neiman Marcus Last Call Sale,” Charyn Pfeuffer said. “Polyamory allows me to love on my terms—who I want, how I want, and for how long—with the consent of all involved.”

In the fifth book in the Time For Alexander series, The Thief of Souls has stolen Alexander's soul, and the druids have foretold the end of their world and have raised an army to kidnap Paul. They mean to stop Rome from invading Gaul and thus change the course of time. Meanwhile, an oracle tells Alexander and Ashley they must go to the Land of the Eaters of the Dead. Paul has stowed away on their ship, and Nearchus has decided that now is the time to profess his love to Alexander. To further complicate things, Charidmus, an old foe of Alexander's, recognizes him and realizes he hasn't died. Ashley knows she must stop the druids, find the Thief of Souls, keep Charidemus quiet, somehow get Nearchus out of their bed, and time back on track - or the Time Senders are going to have a fit. There's also a small matter of a human sacrifice with Alexander as the chosen victim. What's a time traveller to do?



 ‘Who is Voltarrix, and what is a thief of souls?’ I asked Yovanix, the Gallic slave who had joined us on our voyage.

‘In Celtic myth, it’s a druid who can steal souls.’ He made a face. ‘I’m not explaining this very well. I’m not Celt you see. But if Anoramix was afraid of him, I would be frightened too. Anoramix was never afraid of anything, not even death. There’s one last thing I should tell you.’ He licked his lips nervously. ‘Selena told me never to trust you. She said you were really Persephone, the Queen of Ice and Darkness, and that your heart was like a stone.’

‘She was still upset about Anoramix,’ I said uncertainly.

‘She blamed you for his death and wanted revenge. She forbade me to tell you that Voltarrix is still seeking Paul. She said that Paul would never be safe, and that no one could protect him.’

‘What does he want with Paul?’

Yovanix spoke as if weighing his words. ‘If it’s true Iskander lost his soul, I think I know why. If Voltarrix captured Paul and put Iskander’s soul in his body, can you imagine what would happen? Paul can no longer call the moon, but he can grow up to lead an army. The Druids are starting to feel the end of their world approaching. They speak of only one thing now; stopping the Romans before it’s too late. Some think it’s already too late. Voltarrix is one of the old ones who believe that time can be twisted.’

‘Twisted?’ I echoed. My voice sounded odd.

‘The druids believe that time can be changed, like a river’s course. They can change it, slow it, or speed it up. With enough work, they can even make it flow backward. Time is the foundation of the druid’s religion’

It was starting to make sense. Time. The Aztecs had foreseen the date their empire would topple, and they had tried to turn back time with their ceremonies. Nothing had worked for them. Nothing would work for the druids. The Romans would take over and usher in the modern world. Unless a boy, who never should have been born, somehow changed time.

It was conceivable – there were still two hundred years. After that, nothing would halt the inexorable march of the Roman Empire and the event that changed the world; the birth of Christ.

But suppose the druids somehow managed to unite the Norsemen, Celts, and Gauls against the Romans? What if Paul were somehow the catalyst? Paul – with Iskander’s soul.

I took a deep breath. I would have to think about this. There were three people in the world who should never have been born: Paul, Chiron, and Cleopatra – and I was not supposed to be in this time or place. Anyone of us could, conceivably, change the world. A butterfly’s wings indeed.
