Title: Right Now Is Perfect
Author: Carol Anita Ryan
Trailer Creator: Dee Ledua
Blurb:
Right Now Is Perfect: A Romance, An Adventure, The Unexpected Thereafter, is for anyone who has dreamed of finding a soul mate, ditching a career, and sailing into the sunset. It is also for those more practical types who would rather read about it. While vicariously sailing aboard a 36 foot yacht, the reader discovers some of the most isolated and beautiful islands on earth—the Marquesas, the Tuamotos, Tahiti, Moorea, Huahine, Bora Bora, the Cook Islands, Samoa, American Samoa, Fiji, and New Zealand are the landfalls. The narrator and her free-spirited lover must adapt to living on land when the sailing adventure ends. Just when it seems they will live ‘happily ever after’ an unexpected development throws everything into question.

Title: Bad Spelling (Book 1 of the Witches of Galdorheim series)
Author: Marva Dasef
Trailer Creator: Marva Dasef
Blurb:
If you’re a witch living on a remote arctic island, and the entire island runs on magic, lacking magical skills is not just an inconvenience, it can be a matter of life and death–or, at least, a darn good reason to run away from home.
Katrina’s spells don’t just fizzle; they backfire with spectacular results, oftentimes involving green goo. A failure as a witch, Kat decides to run away and find her dead father’s non-magical family. But before she can, she stumbles onto why her magic is out of whack: a curse from a Siberian shaman.
The young witch, accompanied by her half-vampire brother, must travel to the Hall of the Mountain King and the farthest reaches of Siberia to regain her magic, dodging attacks by the shaman along the way.

Title: Dragon Lover
Author: Jeanne Guzman
Trailer Creator: Jeanne Guzman
Blurb:
For eighteen years Kimball Crossley trained for the day she’d come face-to-face with the demon who murdered her parents. Nothing could’ve prepared her for the dragon who would change her life forever.
Dmitri of the Langhier Clan is one of the elite Dragon Hunters. For eighteen years he’s stood against evil, believing he’ll forever be a warrior for his people. That is, until the night he’s confronted with his future.
With whispers of war in the air, can Kimball learn to trust what she’s always hated and accept her love for the Dragon Hunter? Dmitri’s skills as a hunter are superior, but can he accept that women, particularly his woman, can be as strong in mind and body as any well-trained hunter? Can they put aside their differences long enough to save both their worlds?

November 2011 Entry #20 Shiver
Title: Shiver
Author: Remmy Duchene
Trailer Creator: Justin James
Blurb :
Zeus, King of the Gods, has a rather annoying habit of mating with those he shouldn’t. This time, he mated with Anemos, Goddess of the storm winds.
Hera, the consort of the mighty Zeus, has finally had enough, and has cursed any offspring the two may have—Hera's curse creates the Shivers.
Ciro Pyktis is the oldest of the Shivers. Somehow along the way it becomes his duty to protect the humans from another hell Zeus has unleashed on them, another Shiver. But when the Shiver he must destroy is his own brother, Ciro knows his life is over. That is until Carter Olabasu.
Carter Olabasu has just admitted to his brother that he is gay. How in the world is he going to explain to his brother that he might also be in love with a Shiver? Can he deny the heat and desire he feels for this very strange man?
Will he be able to love this man when he finds out what he is? And what about when everything comes full circle? A war has been waged, but who will triumph?
Who will be left standing once the storm subsides?

Trailer Creator: Bella Media Managment
Blurb:
A WOMAN WITH A GUN
Dan Armstrong can’t tell if the figure in the trees is a ghost, an Indian princess, or a hallucination—until she takes a shot at him and disappears without a trace. With only the bullet hole in his hat as proof, he starts looking around for a beautiful woman with a grudge. Rosebud Donnelly fits the bill. She’s beautiful, she’s an Indian, and she’s the tribal lawyer suing his family over water rights. But does she really want him dead? There’s only one way to find out. As he gets closer to Rosebud, Dan can’t tell which is in more danger—his head or his heart.
A MAN WORTH FIGHTING FOR
Attorney Rosebud Donnelly has a case to win. And she never lets anyone see her sweat. But her first meeting with Dan Armstrong doesn’t go according to script. No one warned her that the COO of the company she’s fighting would be so…manly. From his storm-colored eyes to his well-worn boots, Dan is an honest-to-goodness cowboy. But is he honest? Her yearning for the Texas tycoon goes against reason, against family loyalty, against everything she thought she believed in. And yet, in Dan’s strong arms, Rosebud feels she might be ready to risk everything for one more kiss….

Title: Boss Bitch Swag
Author: Cynthia White
Trailer Creator: GWE
Blurb:
How does a married woman who has never once been unfaithful to her husband contract HIV?
Meesha Clark, a gorgeous young wife, mother, and budding fashion designer, is forced to ask herself that very question when what she thought would be a routine prenatal checkup turns out to be anything but routine...
Meesha meets the man she wants to devote her entire life to while she's still in high school.... Falling in love with Boss, though, is the easy part; staying in love will prove to be a much harder task. When Meesha discovers that her heart's desire is not only a well-connected gangster, but is also next in line to head the mob that controls the entire city of St. Louis, she must make the most difficult decision of her entire young life. When she decides to stand by her man, it becomes painfully clear that, even though she's the only woman in his heart, she's not the only woman in his bed...
Malcolm "Boss" Clark knows better than to fall for a girl almost ten years younger than him. He's a man, and Meesha is just a girl, but there's something about her that won't let Boss walk away. Their relationship moves fast and burns hot, much like the city they call home. In the blink of an eye, they find themselves dangerously in love with two small daughters and their first son on the way. The love soon turns to hate, though, when Meesha's doctor breaks the news to her that she's HIV-positive. Certain that Boss contracted the virus from one of his numerous affairs, an emotionally distraught Meesha locks herself in a bathroom with her husband, then proceeds to point his own gun in his face and demand answers - but will the truth set her free, or just keep her bound...?

Author: Greg Michno
Trailer Creator: David Van Dusen
Blurb:
Dakota Dawn focuses in great detail on the first week of the killing spree, a great paroxysm of destruction when the Dakota succeeded, albeit fleetingly, in driving out the white man. During those seven days at least 400 white settlers were killed, the great majority innocent victims slaughtered in the most shocking manner. Nowhere else in the Western United States was there a record of such sustained attacks against a fort (Ridgely) or upon a town (New Ulm). After soldiers put down the uprising, hundreds of Dakotas were captured and put before military tribunals with little or no opportunity to present a fair defense; 38 were hanged on one massive gallows on December 26, 1862.

November 2011 Entry #2 The Turning Kiss
Title: The Turning Kiss
Author: Eden Bradley
Trailer Creator: Saturday Buffet
Blurb:
They have nothing to lose…except the one gift they never expected to find.
Midnight Playground, Book 3
Ilana escaped a life of sex slavery, using her extraordinary beauty to survive among the few remaining wealthy humans in London. But she has higher aspirations. For two years she has haunted the BDSM dungeons of the Midnight Playground, hungering for The Turning Kiss—that deep drink that will make her one of them. An immortal vampire.
Turned out onto the streets of Edinburgh as a child, Calam’s tortured path led him to a job at the club, where he also engages in exotic and dangerous sex play with its clientele. Craving, like Ilana, the eternal escape of the Turning Kiss.
Ilana is undeniably drawn to the beautiful Scotsman, but she has no time to waste; the club takes no one over thirty. When a sinfully compelling vampire pair brings them together for an unusual foursome, she and Calam are shocked to discover it isn’t the vampires they crave, it’s the tenderness and emotion they feel for each other.
After years of seeking to feel something, anything, other than the pain of the past, the ultimate gift is within Ilana’s reach. Yet the cost—leaving her heart behind with a mortal—could be more than she can bear.
