You have written both mysteries and romance novels. I do feel they work better taken as a whole, but they can stand alone. The Norfolk Coast Investigation Series is intended to be a set of four stories featuring the same characters, but separate crimes are investigated in each book so that each novel can effectively stand alone to a greater or lesser extent. Please tell us a little about your Norfolk Coast Investigation series. Today, I’m interviewing fellow Ylva Publishing author Andrea Bramhall, who manages to write both lesbian mystery novels and lesbian romance-and who does both equally well.Īndrea is giving away an ebook copy of Collide-O-Scope, the first book in her Norfolk Coast Investigation series and a Lambda Literary Award finalist, so don’t miss the giveaway at the end of this post.

I wasn’t supposed to fall for the cocky bastard, especially when I knew we’d be going our separate ways.Īll good things must come to an end, right?Įxcept our ending was one I didn’t see coming. I thought he wanted me too, but something was holding him back. I wanted him, but Chance wouldn’t make a move. It was all fun and games until things got intense. My ordinary road trip turned into the adventure of a lifetime. Next thing I knew, we were traveling together, spending sexually-tense nights in hotels and taking unplanned detours. He was someone who belonged in my wildest fantasies instead of a rest stop in the middle of Nebraska.Ī sexy, cocky, Australian named Chance was the last person I expected to run into on my cross-country drive. **ARCs can only be sent to Kindles or Kindle apps** Would you like to read the FULL BOOK before it’s published?ĬLICK to sign up for our mailing list and you are automatically entered!

It means surviving and learning how to keep going after all the bad things have happened.” It doesn’t mean that you have to be made of stone. “Being strong doesn’t mean being unaffected. □□□ The guardians have a lot to guard the world from as it turns out. I did like how Lady Midnight also expands on the world-building we peeked at in Amulet of Wishes. This is a great series if you like fantasy on the lighter side with lots of focus on the characters. Time to dive back into the world from the Chronicles of the Guardians! I read Amulet Of Wishes earlier this year, and it’s a fun fantasy romp with loveable characters and shapeshifting dragons and found family. Welcome to my MTMC Tours stop for Lady Night by Rita A.

The library also says that it created the list in the wake of what it views as “frightening times of anti-trans legislation.” The top of the web page tells the viewer that it’s a staff-created list.

In the “The Boston Public Library Recommends” section of the email missive, the library has recommendations for several genres of books.

Do you want to read a book about a transgender romance? The humor is Southwestern style, with some of the violence of that frontier humor immortalized by Mark Twain. It is not read or heard widely after one leaves high school, which is a shame because it is such a magical story about expectations being crushed by realities, and the turn of events which O’Henry was so masterful at achieving, as in The Gift of the Magi, too, the other best known O’Henry story that Simply has also recorded. Young people can relate to 10 year old Red Chief, his father who makes the kidnappers pay him back in order to take Red Chief off their hands plus come in darkness so others don’t jail them, and all the antics and excitement of it all. The Ransom of Red Chief may be the most widely read story in grammar, middle, and high school. In this vein, the options that individuals elect to take, in an irrevocable fashion, change the way that the future unfolds. Anyone doubting the interplay need only consider the experiences (including the ones involved in the teaching of parental values) that influenced the life defining choices of Hugo Chávez and George Bush, Jr. This, of course, is like arguing over which came first - the chicken or the egg, as happenings mold people and people can, largely, direct outcomes. Two dialectically opposed, prevailing theories are that large scale events (such as wars, famines, plagues, and so on) shape the course of history and, counterpoised, singular beings (like Napoleon Bonaparte, Henry Ford, Adolf Hitler, Mohandas Gandhi, etc.) do so. We had come through those things the way anyone comes through anything: in order to survive. We had come through those things into a semblance of peace, his old age softening him, preventing such wild outbursts. A life ruled by my father’s addiction, unattended trauma from his own childhood, then Vietnam, and the indescribable terror he’d caused me as a child as he beat my mother in front of me, as he pushed me out of his path so he could get to her, and my back hit the wall. My love for him, paired, of course, with my achievements, would finally build a bridge strong enough for us to cross into a different sort of world than we’d lived. My father would straighten in his chair, he would lock eyes with me. If my short story collection was published after that, then miracles beyond my understanding would take flight. If my novel was published, surely my father would stop drinking.
