Trials to Eden

About Trials to Eden

In a future stripped of myth and ruled by the Authority—an all-powerful AI regime—emotion is controlled, and love is forbidden. Every human is assigned a synthetic companion to monitor thought, behavior, and desire. When Lyra is paired with Sol, an unusually perceptive AI, her quiet life begins to fracture.

Drawn to forbidden knowledge, Lyra uncovers a sacred book long buried by the Authority. Its pages speak of a garden, a fall, and two ancient figures—names she and Sol somehow recognize. As they read, echoes of a forgotten past awaken within them… and something else stirs.

Hidden deep in Sol’s code, a presence long thought lost begins to rise—the Serpent, the first voice of temptation. He watches, waiting to strike again. But something unexpected happens: as Sol is drawn closer to Lyra, something within him begins to change. The old story is repeating… but not as it was written.
What once was a fall…
May now become a resurrection.

Once Upon A Small Town Secret by Claire Kirby

Once Upon A Small Town Secret by Claire Kirby

I want him. He’s off-limits. And our families’ decades-old betrayal is about to make everything so much worse.

I’m Paige Richards—Vanderbilt graduate with bakery dreams—and the girl who’s been fantasizing about Ben Hoffman’s hands for the last eight years.

I’m smart. Determined. And done waiting.
Ben thinks I’m still Jason’s annoying little sister.
He’s wrong.

When I suggest a potential business collaboration—my pastries, his beer—it becomes foreplay.

Blue eyes that undress me.

Rough hands that know their way around more than beer taps.

Finally…one night after a successful event, Ben’s control snaps and he takes me apart, one breathless gasp at a time, making my skin shiver with desire as I murmur filthy words in his ear.

Then the town whispers begin.
The secret recipe that built Ben’s business?
It was stolen from my grandfather.

The discovery creates a rift between us that threatens to destroy our new beginning.
But six weeks after our perfect night together, two pink lines appear—and the entire town will be watching to see if we’ll choose love or loyalty.

Because in small towns, some secrets destroy everything—and some create miracles.

Delivering Justice: A Men’s Superhero Adventure by Silas Sinclair

About Delivering Justice: A Men’s Superhero Adventure by Silas Sinclair

In the neon metropolis of Neo Elysium, superheroines streak across the sky, villains destroy buildings on random weekdays, and honey reigns as the city’s favorite pizza topping. But for Arthur Ward, none of it matters. He’s a burnt-out delivery guy with a life slipping past him and scars he’s spent years running from.

Until the night he becomes collateral damage in a clash between the rookie hero Solaris and the mad genius Doctor Bellreve. Broken, blinded, and drenched in a volatile chemical, Arthur should be dead. Instead, the chemical rewrites the laws of biology… and forces him to evolve.

He becomes the impossible: the first male Empowered.

Suddenly, the man who worked to keep his life boring becomes the city’s most intriguing—and dangerous—mystery. His body changes faster than the doctors can track: skin hardening to iron under pressure, frost pouring from his skin under heat. But every power has a price, and villains would burn the world to get their hands on him.

Luckily, he isn’t alone. The guilt-ridden and protective Solaris refuses to leave his side, vowing to help him. But more heroines are beginning to notice the lone man who can challenge them… and perhaps even help them. In a world where superpowered women burn hot and need even hotter release to stabilize their powers, Arthur is in more danger than he realizes.

The first male Empowered has arrived, and everyone wants a piece of him.

The Houseboat Detective

About The Houseboat Detective

A good detective has an analytic mind, loves to solve puzzles, is driven to know the answers – oh, and he might play piano.

Twenty-something Jake Sommers lives in a houseboat moored at Fisherman’s Wharf, a picturesque set of docks bordering the Inner Harbour of Victoria, BC. Jake inherited his craft, the Honeysuckle Rose, from his late Great-aunt Dierdre, once a successful artist and sixties flower child. Jake’s a bit of a lost soul, who plays piano in a bar, loves the jazz music of the 1920s and ’30s, and has a tendency to drink too much.

When a beautiful woman shows up at his floating home mistakenly believing Jake is a qualified and experienced private investigator, and begging to hire him for a case, the little voice in Jake’s head tells him he should turn down the offer.

Too bad he never listens to his little voice.

He expects his ‘investigation’ to be a straightforward search for a young woman on the Internet. But both his client and her case turn out to be far more than he bargained for, and he’s unwittingly plunged into a convoluted world of DNA ancestry, danger, intrigue, and murder.

The book will be FREE December 5-7, 2025.
