Authors After Dark - Nancy Reece

INTRODUCING NANCY REECE

Greetings Fellow AAD-ers from the Deep South!

My name is Nancy S. Reece, I live in North Atlanta, Georgia, and this is my very first Authors After Dark! Savannah is one of my favorite summer escapes and I can’t wait to share this amazing adventure with everyone.

Originally from Pennsylvania, my father worked for United Air Lines, which is sort of like being a military brat – we moved a lot. My brother even went to seven different elementary schools due to dad being transferred. After I was born, we were transferred to Florida and then Atlanta, where I have been ever since.

I started writing when I was young, but often was told I didn’t know enough about what I was doing. Then came a career, a husband, a family, and all the whirlwind that comes with those titles. At last, when my oldest went away to college in 2008 I sat down and began crafting out some of the stories that had been rolling around in my head for decades.

My first book, “Catalyst – Guardian Rising” is the first in a trilogy. The second ebook was released December 21, 2015 and is called “The Price for Redemption”, and book three is on the drawing board, waiting for other stories to have their turn. I also have a sweet romance, “January Frost”, which I am thinking about expanding into another series. AMAZON

My next release, which I am waiting for a release date, will be a contemporary suspense romance, “Welcome to the Family” coming from the Wild Rose Press. It’s set in Atlanta and Seattle and focuses on the kidnapping of a mercenary’s wife. I hope to have the release date before AAD so I can let everyone know.

As I said, this is my first adventure to Authors After Dark, but from what I’ve been told this will be a wild time. Currently I am co-sponsoring a shopping/drinking trip to River Street, Savannah’s original waterfront; I’ll be doing Drunken Bowling at the Welcome Event, be sure to come check it out for a chance to win excellent swag; I’m hosting a table at the Debut Dinner; and be sure to check out my Dark Druid Potion during the Fantasy Ball. This doesn’t even include the panels, luncheons, coffee breaks, etc when I’ll be roaming the halls and losing my mind!

I cannot wait to meet everyone, and to catch up with those I met in April at The Novel Experience Event. The readers are what makes this event so much fun, and I’m super excited for the whole shebang.

So grab your tanning butter and c’mon down. Let’s put Georgia on your Mind! Oh, and if you see me roaming the halls be sure to stop me for a chance to win extra special swag. All you need to do is tell me one historical fact about Savannah. Let’s see how well everyone does.

Until August – y’all be good now, ya hear!

Authors After Dark - K. Margaret

INTRODUCING K. MARGARET

Hey everyone, my name is K. Margaret and I write paranormal romance.  I currently live right outside of Atlanta, Georgia, by way of Northern California and Connecticut. When I’m not writing, I’m working as a title paralegal, hanging out with my teenage daughter, or watching sports. I have a slight (okay, maybe large) obsession with sports. I’m the crazy chick that wakes up to the NFL Network when most people wake up to the morning news.

I started writing poetry as a child, but didn’t really get into writing fiction until I was in my twenties. My best friend and I would sit around and tell stories and one day I decided I needed to put those stories on paper. The voices in my head also demanded it, especially one particular demon. We’ll call her Empusa. 

I released my first book, Dare to Dream, last November, which is also the first book in my Dark Dreams Series.  Endless Nightmare: The Origin of a Demon was released last month. And Dreams in the Dark, Book Two of the Dark Dreams Series is being released at AAD and I’m so excited to introduce you to new characters and check in on some old ones. My books are filled with demons, witches, shifters, slayers, gods, and more. I love to write strong-headed, sarcastic, kickass females and the men who put up with them.

While I have attended AAD several times as a reader, this year will be my first year attending as an author and I’m so excited! I have so much planned and lots of fun stuff to give away. If you’re sitting at my table for the Debut Dinner, you’ll find out all about my favorite saying, WWED (What Would Empusa Do?). We’ll be going a little demon on that one! For my Fantasy Ball table, the theme is witches, but not just any witch. Dreams in the Dark takes place in Savannah and one of the characters is a witch named Tiffany. She’s a total trip and a half, so I couldn’t think of a more perfect setting to base my theme around her and her shop, The Triple Goddess.  Don’t worry though, if you’re not sitting at my tables you’ll be able to find me at other events. I’ll be one of the authors hosting breakfast on Thursday morning, attending the New Release Party, and I’ll be at the Literary Tea (with more fun swag!) Thursday night, you’ll find me down at Smiles, my favorite piano bar. So make sure to stop by, have a drink with me and sing along (just don’t make fun of my horrible singing voice J )

I’ll be getting to Savannah on Monday, so make sure you find me and say hello. The first three people who ask me “What would Empusa do?’ I have a special gift for.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in August!

The past and present collide as FBI analyst Jake Bernstein is recruited to go undercover and investigate an elderly American grandmother, currently on a tour of England and Ireland with her granddaughter, who is suspected of WWII war crimes.

Spotlight - Roped In by Marie Sexton & L.A. Witt

About Roped In

Graham and his roping partner, Jackson, have been friends since they were boys. They've ruled the rodeo scene for ten years running, but lately, Graham’s heart isn’t in the game. He’s tired of the bruises, the cowboy mentality, and the animal rights activists who picket every event. He's also tired of being in love with Jackson, and nothing’s been the same between them since their disastrous drunken encounter the year before.

Then Graham has a run-in with one of the rodeo protesters, and everything changes. Kaz is young, idealistic, and sexy as hell. But he's also a know-it-all, animal-loving vegan, bent on saving the world one cow at a time. They have next to nothing in common, but Graham can't stop thinking about what might happen if they can stop butting heads long enough to give it a try. Unfortunately, no matter how attracted Graham is to other men, he always panics and runs when the clothes start to come off. But Kaz has an idea for getting Graham past his nerves and into bed.

All they need is a bit of rope.

(Note: This is a re-edited second edition of a previously published title.)

Excerpt & Giveaway - The Champion of Baresh (Star World Frontier #1) by Susan Grant

An all-new, stand-alone tale of two improbable lovers, their daring secret, 

and the gamble destined to alter the course of their worlds forever!

The Champion of Barésh
Star World Frontier #1

By: Susan Grant

Released May 26, 2016

RITA-winner Susan Grant is back with an all-new, stand-alone tale of two improbable lovers, their daring secret, and the gamble destined to alter the course of their worlds forever!

She was playing with fire...

Jemm Aves battles to keep her dreams alive on a dead-end world. Working for the mines by day, she’s a successful bajha player at night, disguised as a male to be allowed to compete in the colony’s dangerous underworld where club owners will go to extremes to retain the best players. Every win puts her one small step closer to her goal: saving enough to escape Barésh with her family. When a nobleman from one of the galaxy’s elite families recruits her to be a star player for his team, it's because he doesn't know her secret. Her ruse proves to be her most perilous game yet when it puts both their lives—and her heart—at risk.

Prince Charming he was not...

Prince Klark is eager to reverse his reputation as the black sheep of the Vedla clan, a family as famous for its wealth and power as it is for being a bastion of male-dominated tradition. If his bajha team can win the galactic title it would go a long way toward restoring the family honor that his misdeeds tarnished. He travels to Barésh to track down an amateur who’s risen to the top of the seedy world of street bajha, offering the commoner a chance of a lifetime: a way off that reeking space rock for good. But his new player comes with a scandalous secret that turns his plans and his beliefs upside down. He sets out to win a very different prize—his champion’s reluctant heart.

Blurb Blitz w/Excerpt & Giveaway - A Seal's Vow by Cora Seton

A SEAL'S VOW

by Cora Seton

GENRE:  contemporary romance

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

BLURB:

After fifteen long, dangerous years in the service, Navy SEAL Clay Pickett is ready for his new mission: build a model sustainable community and show the world an exciting alternative to a consumption-based life. If that means he’s got a deadline to find a wife in order to win the reality TV show that’s filming his sustainable adventure, so be it. He’s got just the woman for the job in mind: beautiful, dedicated Nora Ridgeway.

When Nora left her job as a school teacher in Baltimore to live a simpler, Jane Austen style life in Montana with her friends, she was relieved to escape the escalating threats of violence from an unknown student stalker, but she can’t help feeling she’s abandoned the other high schoolers who put their faith in her. She’s torn about Clay’s advances, too. On the one hand she’s never met anyone like the strong, sexy SEAL. On the other hand, life’s taught her to take relationships slow—and Clay’s on a deadline.

When arson strikes and Nora disappears, Clay knows he’ll need every trick he learned in his time with the SEALs to track her down and save her life.

Can two people caught by their pasts have a chance at a future?
