A Journey Spared
About A Journey Spared
Free e-book available: April 12-15, 2024. Also on KU.
Finding a new path can be difficult when the darkness threatens to swallow you.
When Jackson Vane and his three best friends joined the U.S. Marines after high school, he had big dreams. Not only did the service take him far away from his father and the city he refused to call home, it also gave him endless opportunities to see the world. But he never dreamed that eight years would be all he’d get. Now, he’s being shipped back to Richmond, Virginia with nothing to his name but shattered dreams, a useless medal, two broken legs, and a devastated heart. While his injuries hold him captive in his childhood home, Jackson has a new war to fight. He must come to terms with survivor’s guilt, figure out who he is, and most daunting of all, learn how to heal.
Avery Mason has burned for Jackson for most of her life. Now that he’s back to stay and needs her help, the time is right to claim what she’s always wanted. Twenty years was an excruciatingly long time to wait for her dreams to come true.
Jackson’s story continues in A JOURNEY TO LOVE (book 2) and concludes in A JOURNEY HOME (book 3). Must be read in order for the full story and HEA. The Journey Series is best read in order, starting with the prequel novella, A JOURNEY WORTH TAKING.
***
The JOURNEY SERIES as a whole is a heartwarming contemporary romance about a veteran rising out of darkness after losing almost everything he holds dear. The journey is hard. There will be hardships, pain, heartbreak, and raw emotions (content warning: open door romance, coarse language, casual drinking, suicide of a loved one, sick parent, loss of a parent, PTSD, loss/grief, rape, verbal abuse, and violence). Nothing is graphic, and there is plenty of inspiration, hope, sweetness, perseverance, friendships, unbreakable bonds, and unconditional love to overcome it all.

Love Hate Law by Mark M. Bello
Love Hate Law by Mark M. Bello
Can Opponents in the courtroom become lovers in the bedroom?
An insurrection occurs at the state capitol in Lansing, Michigan. A young woman is trampled to death by the rioters. The woman’s father retains a rookie lawyer from small-town Saline, stunningly beautiful Andrea Kramer, to sue the state of Michigan and the former governor who contested the recent election and inspired the insurrection. Andrea is a struggling sole practitioner who has recently decided to hang her own shingle. The only office in her price range is a “haunted house and barn,” converted to office space because a family was murdered in the home, years before. Everyone who visits swears it “smells funny.”
Michael O’Hara wakes up in a hotel room with no memory of how he got there. A naked woman lies sleeping in his bed. His phone alarm alerts him to the fact that he is late for an important meeting at the office, a silk-stocking defense law firm in Detroit. He apologizes to the woman and rushes to the office, where the firm’s senior partner is meeting with the Attorney General of Michigan. The AG wants the firm to represent the state of Michigan in a wrongful death lawsuit resulting from the recent insurrection at the capitol. The senior partner has tapped the handsome, rugged, chiseled, 6-foot, 4-inch Michael, the firm’s most successful trial lawyer, to handle the case.
Andrea is passionate about justice, an advocate for the people, someone who wants to do well by doing good. Michael is a ‘bad-boy’ country club type lawyer, a sexy playboy who believes in winning at all costs, ethics be damned. The two attorneys clash, almost from the moment they meet. Michael invites Andrea to lunch, where he insults her with a lowball offer, arrogantly informing her that she is too inexperienced to handle and win such a high-profile case.
The date for Andrea’s first major trial will soon arrive. She wants justice for her client, and besting Michael O’Hara would be icing on the cake. Who will emerge victorious? Does Andrea like Michael, even a little? Is romance possible after such a contentious trial? What’s in store for this couple after the verdict? “Love-Hate-Law” answers these questions and more.

About Ink & Desire
Corbin James has a reputation for two things: Being one of the best tattoo artists around and being a total jerk. Both reputations are well-deserved and he’s proud of both. In fact, he does everything he can to cultivate both titles. They’ve both served him quiet well over the years. Which is why he has a strict set of rules he lives by.
