About AMY IV: The Final Chapter by RW Duder

Amy’s back!

After escaping the detention center, following her mother’s death, Amy’s only family connection is with her estranged sister. With that in mind, she sets off on a killing spree of unprecedented size.

Riley Walker has discovered that she is the illegitimate daughter of the mass killer, David James Walker, also known as The Deathmask Killer. This also means she is the only living relative to Amy Walker, the zombified, unstoppable, undead killer that has slashed her way through countless victims. Believing everyone from that family was dead, she thought she was safe to proceed with life as a University of Chicago student. But when she starts to receive strange messages that her sister Amy could still be alive, she can’t believe it’s all real. Those close to her want her to know that Amy is very much alive and killing everyone in a path straight towards her.

The proof starts to appear in the form of bodies on campus. Can they stop Amy before a reign of terror starts at the university? Or is it already too late?

With dark forces seeking to use her and a small band of reluctant heroes gathering to stop her, Amy feels the walls closing in. Her last stand is now. Death stalks the university as Riley Walker tries to come to terms with her unreal past in this final chapter of terror and mayhem.

I Like You, I Love Her

About I Like You, I Love Her

Severin

It feels like I’ve been in love with Bryan Winthrop my entire life.
Before he kissed me in front of the entire school.
As he danced with her the night of our senior prom.
After his younger brother, Ben, made me smile through my tears.

“It’ll never work with him. He will never leave her…”

It’s been more than ten years since I let myself fall
for the boy whose heart wasn’t mine.
And the Prom King’s lips are finally mine to kiss.

“When I came back here I wasn’t expecting to see you,
and when I did, I felt this tumble…”

But he’s still keeping me in the shadows.
As his younger brother breaks me open in the day.

Ben

You shouldn’t covet whom your brother desires.
Our pastor father would say he taught me better than that.
But I knew over ten years ago my brother didn’t deserve her.
And nothing’s changed since she came back into both our lives.

“You think what you felt for my brother back then was love,
but what I felt can’t be the same?”

I’m still the one who makes her laugh—
the one who challenges her.
And he’s still the one treating her like a dirty little secret.

“You really are a watercolor, Severin Thompson. I can read you…”

You shouldn’t covet whom your brother desires.
This summer, I’ll remind him of that.

The Grump’s Girl Friday by Sofia T Summers

The Grump’s Girl Friday by Sofia T Summers

I needed to be only what he had hired me to be.
His assistant.

Not his savior.
Not his girlfriend.
And definitely not the mother of his child.

And yet… there I was.

Eric was a total nightmare.
Much older than me, rich AF, refused to settle down.
Despite his mother threatening to deny him his inheritance.
He didn’t care about things that didn’t serve him.
And for that, I hated him.
But I pretended to be his perfect employee.
Surely, I could beat him at his own game.

Coffee? He would have it right on time.
A new contract? I would land it for him.
But pregnancy? That was not what I hoped for.

It could backfire everything.
Cost me my job.
My heart.
Basically, my entire life.
But somehow, somewhere…
Mr. Grump made the destruction sound all worth it.

Tapestry of My Mother’s Life by Malve von Hassell

Tapestry of My Mother’s Life by Malve von Hassell

Tapestry of My Mother’s Life is a biographical account of a woman coming of age in Germany during the 1930s. Malve von Hassell explores her mother’s life through the fragmented lens of transmitted memory, and its impact on the second generation.

Born at her grandfather’s house in Farther Pomerania, 1923, Christa von Hassell had to contend with the increasing and pervasive impact of the Nazi regime. As the child of a German army officer, she moved with her parents often. Through boarding school, university, marriage, the Second World War, life under Soviet occupation, and a new beginning in the West that eventually took her to America, the biography is an emotional journey of childhood, survival, and relationships.

The portrayal of Christa’s life also focuses on the role of memory: shaped, distorted, and realigned in the continual process of telling stories of the past in conjunction with silence about many aspects. Children of women who shared similar experiences and life trajectories struggled with the challenge of learning about their parents’ lives during extraordinary times, confounded by a wealth of stories on the one hand and a seemingly impenetrable veil of silence on the other.

Working through such memorabilia, as well as the tales of the past, can offer ways in which one can come to terms with the inherited detritus of thoughts and memories. As such, this account of the life of a unique and complex individual has also wider relevance in that it addresses age-old questions of the relationship between one generation and the next.

The Suicide Society by William Brennan Knight

The Suicide Society by William Brennan Knight

Do you sometimes feel like we’re all being led down a one-way path to self-destruction?
It’s like we’re living in a tinder box, and someone or something keeps nudging us a little further towards a totalitarian dystopian future…

Just one match can send everything up in flames… Who or what is behind this nebulous sickness and hatred that infects the very soul of humanity? Every day we’re exposed to reports of increasingly horrific brutality even as we try and cope with our own personal anguish.

How did it come to this?

After an unsuccessful suicide attempt, Zach Randall, a self-absorbed accountant, experiences disturbing visions of tortured souls preparing to die by their own hand. Initially dismissing the dreams as mere hallucinations, Randall begins to suspect there is deeper meaning hidden within each vision. Could these people be real? And who is the dark, mysterious entity who competes for the loyalties of the despondent and tormented before they breathe their last breath?

The Suicide Society is a supernatural thriller that evolves as a story of evil and a carefully devised plan to infiltrate every aspect of society for the purpose of promoting hate, chaos and ultimate destruction. As the clocks continues to wind down, Randall races to uncover the apocalyptic plot and expose the gifted leader of a massive covert network that relentlessly drives the world closer to a global catastrophe.

Myles Franco is alone. Burdened by mistakes he’ll never live down. Fostering a deep resentment for the opposite sex. Unleashing his wrath on any girl who gets too close.

Brantley has worked behind the bar long enough to recognize Myles for what he is—a douchebag player with nothing on his mind but keeping a steady stream of girls flowing through his bed. With his messy dark hair, sapphire blue eyes, rock-solid body, and endless tattoos he’s impossible to ignore. But that’s exactly what she plans on doing.

After just one run-in with Brantley, Myles is even more determined to stick to the rules he lives by. She’s mouthy, blunt, and doesn’t back down—no matter how hard he pushes her. She could turn out be the one temptation that drags him down the path he’s been trying to avoid. He won’t let that happen.

Both are content living behind the solid walls they’ve built around themselves. Neither is prepared for what happens when their lives collide.

Qualify (The Atlantis Grail Book 1) by Vera Nazarian

Qualify (The Atlantis Grail Book 1) by Vera Nazarian

A high-octane dystopian SF thriller for fans of ANCIENT ALIENS and THE HUNGER GAMES, from a Nebula Award Finalist Author. International cross-genre phenomenon! Series Optioned for Film!

You have two options… You die, or you Qualify.

Nerd, geek, and awkward smart girl Gwen Lark must compete against all other teens on Earth, in order to Qualify for interplanetary rescue from an asteroid apocalypse! Can she save everyone she loves?

The year is 2047. An extinction-level asteroid is hurtling toward Earth, and the descendants of ancient Atlantis have returned from the stars in their silver ships to offer humanity help.

But there’s a catch.

They can only take a tiny percent of the Earth’s population back to the colony planet Atlantis. And in order to be chosen, you must be a teen, you must be bright, talented, and athletic, and you must Qualify.

Sixteen-year-old Gwenevere Lark is determined not only to Qualify but to rescue her entire family.

Because there’s a loophole.

If you are good enough to Qualify, you are eligible to compete in the brutal games of the Atlantis Grail, which grants all winners the laurels, high tech luxuries, and full privileges of Atlantis Citizenship. And if you are in the Top Ten, then all your wildest wishes are granted… Such as curing your mother’s cancer.

There is only one problem.

Gwen Lark is known as a klutz and a nerd. While she’s a hotshot in classics, history, science, and languages, the closest she’s come to sports is a backyard pool and a skateboard.

This time she is in over her head, and in for a fight of her life, against impossible odds and world-class competition—including Logan Sangre, the most amazing guy in her school, the one she’s been crushing on, and who doesn’t seem to know she exists.

Because every other teen on Earth has the same idea.

You Qualify or you die.
