Blurb:
How hard do you have to shake a family tree to find out the truth about the past?
Fifteen-year-old Rae Kerrigan never questioned her family’s history. That is until she accepted a scholarship to Guilder Boarding School in England. Guilder is an exclusive, gifted school. Rae has no idea what she is getting herself into or that her family’s past is going to come back and taunt her.
She learns she is part of an unparalleled group of individuals who become inked with a unique tattoo (tatu) on their sixteenth birthday. The tatu enables them to have supernatural powers particular to the shape of their ink-art. Both of her parents where inked, though Rae never knew, as they passed away when she was young. Learning about her family's past, her evil father and sacrificial mother, Rae needs to decide if there is a ray of hope in her own life.

Title: Love Delivered
Author: Joya Fields
Trailer Creator: Joya Fields
Blurb:
Bianca McClain has worked for years to achieve her dream job in New York City. After her grandmother passes away, she finds herself returning to the small town she grew up in to ready her house for sale. The slow, friendly pace of the town and its citizens, especially Pete the mailman, appeal to her—but there’s no way she’s giving up everything she’s accomplished in New York.
Born and raised in Centreville, MD, Pete Schaeffer loves his small town mail carrier job and can’t imagine leaving for any reason—or anyone—so he's dumbfounded by his intense attraction to Bianca, a woman with a fast-paced life in the big city.
Pete and Bianca soon find themselves lost in each other’s arms. When the summer ends, they will have big decisions to make. Will the small-town guy and big-city girl find common ground and lasting love, or will their differences drive them apart?

December 2011 Entry #13 Brimstone and Lily
Title: Brimstone and Lily
Author: Terry Kroenung
Trailer Creator: Janet Smith
Blurb:
Precocious twelve year-old Verity Sauveur, a red-haired tomboy, lives and plays at Ford’s Theatre in 1862. As the Civil War rages, Verity, best friend Eddie, and anxious single mother Ellen work backstage, helping John Wilkes Booth rehearse Macbeth. Verity falls through the basement floor into an ancient chamber, where she discovers a magical sword that is activated by the stone she has worn around her neck since birth. That sword contains the wisecracking spirit of a boy which she decides to call Jasper. He tells Verity that she is the Stone-Warden, chosen by prophecy to undo a terrible wrong perpetrated on the world by the Honourable Company. This evil corporation’s sorcery has placed every nation into its most conflict-riddled time. In France Napoleon rules, in England Catholics and Protestants plot during Elizabeth I’s reign, in Spain Christians and Moors slay one another. Italy struggles through the Renaissance. Germany still endures the Thirty Years War. Ireland is populated by characters from literature and Scandinavia is home to all manner of fairy tale creatures.
Sword and stone together grant special powers to Verity: strength, speed, enhanced senses, the talent to shift the sword (and herself) into almost any useful shape. She also understands the speech of animals, which comes in handy when Verity acquires as allies a Cockney mouse, a pirate queen parrot, pelicans, seagulls, and a platoon of rats with speech impediments.
Forced to flee home when the Company learns of her new status, Verity and her animal companions, along with friend Eddie, freed slave Romulus, and a Confederate cavalryman who might be a double agent, begin a hazardous journey across Virginia. Civil War battles, demons, an Assassins’ Guild, corrupted mages, undead Rebel soldiers, manure monsters, and Verity’s own doubts lie in their way. To make matters worse, Verity’s beloved mother has disappeared and they must hunt for her while preserving their own skins.
