Book Trailer: https://youtu.be/HIcxeADNNuc Amazon: https://amzn.to/3i9ySRq Excerpt: “Why does anything pertaining to you have to come with extra baggage?” Uncle Damon said. His dominant pack power surged, affecting the others nearby and making them restless. The air crackled with his energy. I held my ground. His words stung, but he’d never hear me say it. I’d had lots of practice over the years keeping my hurt from showing, but at this moment, I lashed out with a barb of my own. “I’m just lucky that way. Kind of like you.” I tapped the desk with my fingertips, knowing he hated it and narrowed my eyes at him. He sure as hell had his own baggage when it came to relationships and pack bonds, especially when it came to anything with my mother. “If the two of you are done poking at one another, I’d like to move on to the pertinent issue of the cursed map,” Sebastian said. He stood a good foot away from his desk and peered down at the map as if it might explode. Everyone had a hands-off approach to the map after I’d blurted out that it was cursed. “It won’t curse you just by touching it,” I said. “At least, not from what Gwenn or I could tell. It has a hidden layer that will attack you if you try to force it out in the open.” “That’s just great,” Mutther said. “I suppose you found out firsthand?” “Not me. Gwenn did. I was the innocent bystander.” “Right. How innocent?” Nick said. He moved to Mutther’s side and viewed the map from farther away. Neither of them was taking any chances. Not that I blamed them. They had suffered from being too near me in the past. Mutther was still rebuilding his bar. About the Author: Sheri Queen writes immersive stories of adventure and romance.

 1) Tell us about your book It’s the story of Margaret, who thinks losing weight will answer all her problems, but life isn’t that simple. I consider it a modern fairy tale. It’s got some horror, some humor, and some heart too. If you’ve ever felt at war with yourself or that you get in your own way when you are trying to achieve something important, I think you’ll sympathize with Margaret’s plight. 2) What themes does your book explore? The central them is self love, or self hate in Margaret’s case. She’s a person divided by what she thinks she should do and what she wants to do, and those parts are united by a bubbling cauldron of fear that’s trying to keep everything together. I wanted to explore what consumes us, and play upon that word in a literal sense. What happens when we can literally eat our fears? What would a bottomless pit of need and anxiety look like? Why would such a being exist in the first place? Despite the body horror and the gore, it is about the difference between how we see ourselves and reality, and what happens when we let a negative self-image hold us back. 3) Tell us something unusual about your main character? She splits into three versions of herself. I often think it would be great to have another me around to help get things done, but Margaret doesn’t get along with herself, so it’s a bit of a nightmare having to share her house with two other selves. 4) Is this a standalone book or a series? It’s a standalone novella. 5) What is next for you? I’m working on finishing my Irish zombie series, 7th Hell, and I hope to release the next books later this year. I’m also getting my zombie detective series, Dead Jimmy, ready for publication. Because I’m a multi-genre author, I have a series of fantasy novellas based around elemental dragons that are forthcoming (the first book, The Mountains of Sorrow, is already available), and I hope to publish my first science fantasy novel, What’s Eating Steve? later this year as well.  Iseult Murphy is a multi-genre Irish author who has won various awards for her short fiction, as well as her debut horror novel 7 Days in Hell, which was an IAN Book of the Year Awards Finalist.

Book Description:
Her special abilities can save lives, but so can they kill.
Rovena Silvex has hunted and eliminated dozens of demons throughout the ten years since her initiation as a hunter. Possessing supernatural skills only makes her job a lot easier.
When she’s asked to visit the county morgue to look over a deceased victim and find out what demon killed him, the body rising from the dead is the last thing she expects.
Now Rovena is stuck with a walking corpse and no answers as to how he managed to return to the world of the living. However, the victim has changed and the more time she spends with him, the more she realizes that what crossed over might not have been the soul of the dead man but something much worse.
Complications arise when her new assignment is targeted by demons hell-bent on making sure he stays dead for good.
Killing demons has always been a piece of cake. Keeping one alive however, is a whole new ballgame for her. If she fails, she risks setting in motion a war between heaven and hell. But if she succeeds, she could trap a powerful Lord in a world he doesn’t belong in, forever.
Kristy Centeno loves to spin tales of creatures that go bump in the night, with a sprinkle of romance to top them off. Her passion for writing stems from a lifelong enjoyment of reading and the pleasure derived from the magical worlds created by authors like her. She prefers her female leads strong, independent, and stubborn who will stop at nothing to save their loved ones and protect those they care for.
Kristy currently resides in Pennsylvania with her five kids, a quartet of noisy parakeets, and a spoiled puppy. When she’s not working or writing, she juggles her free time between raising a handful of minions and pursuing other career goals.

 1) Tell us about your story in Grave Dangers My idea is based around an abandoned asylum and features a character with steadily deteriorating mental health. She’s a college girl who’s returning home after a semester away. One day when she’s walking through the trees, she hears voices that urge her to go deeper into them and at first, she resists. Hearing voices is not new to her but then the voices get louder, and she hears the same voice everywhere she goes so she eventually gives in. Inside the asylum, she is sensitive to the ghosts, can feel their pain, and see what they went through. What she doesn’t know is that she isn’t the only one who was lured there. Has paranormal and suspense elements. 2) What are the main themes in your story? The main themes in Voices would be coming of age, the power of friendship, loss, and starting over. 3) Tell us something unusual about your main character. My character suffers from schizophrenia, and as a result, she can act as a good unreliable narrator since she isn’t sure of herself and the events that unfold in a story. 4) Who are your favorite authors in the mystery/thriller/horror genres? There are so many good authors in these genres that I’m gonna round my response to the handful of names that come to mind: Stephen King (of course), Mary Kubica, Ruth Ware, and Carissa Ann Lynch. 5) Is your book a standalone or the start of a series? My book is a standalone novella.  Kayla Krantz is an international bestselling author of dark fantasy, psychological horror, and supernatural thrillers. She is fascinated by the dark and macabre. Stephen King is her all-time inspiration, mixed in with some faint remnants of the works of Edgar Allen Poe. Kayla was born and raised in Michigan but traveled across the country to where she currently resides with fur babies in Texas.
 1) Tell us about your story in Grave Dangers.
My story in Grave Dangers is a romantic suspense novella titled Protecting His Wolfe. A serial killer/vigilante has targeted the town’s criminal element but an innocent young woman, Betsie Wolfe, attracts the police’s attention. Blurb:Crime is rampant. The police’s hands are tied. But mine aren’t. Some would call me a vigilante, but I prefer savior. This town is mine, and the crime’s got to go. Innocent Betsie Wolfe stumbles upon a murder. The small-town girl had left her cozy little life for a job in the big city, never expecting to become a witness to a murder or face vicious threats. I’d hoped she would run back to her preacher father, but she’s made of sterner stuff, and I can respect that. Handsome Detective Jonah Pigg is attracted to the ingénue and settles her into his home under the protection of the three brothers who own the Pigg Detective Agency. It will take all his detective work to keep her safe, and I won’t make it easy. Passion has a way of igniting when people are under stress, and lust leads Betsie and Jonah into each other’s arms. But will the good detective be able to save her, or will she become another victim? One way or another, this town will be cleaned up. 2) What are the main themes in your story? Small-Town romance, Police procedural, and crime and morality. 3) Tell us something unusual about your main character. Jonah Pigg and Betsie Wolfe have names that are a play on the Three Little Pigs story. Each of my books in the Pigg Detective Series feature nods to the children’s fairy tales with wolves. 4) Who are your favorite authors in the mystery/thriller/horror genres? Neil Gaiman is my favorite mystery/thriller author. As a teacher, I loved to read his book, Coraline, to my students each year. My copy is so loved that pages are falling out. 5) Is your book a standalone or the start of a series? This is the first in a three-book series about three brothers- Jonah, Marcus and Lucas Pigg. Detective Jonah Pigg took care of his brothers when his parents died. All three boys have become protectors, with the two younger brothers starting their own detective agency. Thank you for having me on your blog. My name is Melissa Keir and I write contemporary, small-town romance. Most feature sexy cowboys and a feisty heroine, set in a small town much like the one I grew up in. I’m really excited to share my story and see GRAVE DANGERS come out so everyone can read the amazing stories available in it. Don’t forget to take advantage of the freebies available with a purchase! I love to hear from readers and you can find more about my books on my website at www.melissakeir.com
