Charity's Torment

Image
  All I wanted was to find my brother after he disappeared. I didn't plan on somebody trying to make me disappear, too. All in a day's work for the Moreno Family's feistiest enforcer. When the twists begin to fly and I'm turned in new directions, I realize there's more to my brother's sudden disappearance than meets the eye. Thankfully, I've got plenty of knowledge, and muscle, in my corner: The Underboss, ruthless and protective. The Consigliere, my calm in the storm. The Capo, my wild ace in the hole. As if I didn’t have enough to deal with trying to find my brother, somebody is also trying to kill me. Are they trying to stop me from finding my brother? They picked the wrong enforcer to mess with. NOTE: This reverse harem mafia romance may contain scenes or situations not suitable for all readers. My Review I did like this book. It is a quick read. It kind of reminded me of Ava, the movie from Netflix. That is only because I had recently saw this movie. It...

  Selah Hopewell seems to be the only woman in the Virginia colony who has no wish to wed. True, there are too many men and far too few women in James Towne. But Selah already has her hands full assisting her father in the family's shop. And now she is in charge of an incoming ship of tobacco brides who must be looked after as they sort through their many suitors. Xander Renick is perhaps the most eligible tobacco lord in the settlement. His lands are vast, his crops are prized, and his position as a mediator between the colonists and the powerful Powhatan nation surrounding them makes him indispensable.

Or will they discover that what they've been missing in life has been right in front of them all along? Bestselling and award-winning author Laura Frantz takes you to the salty shore...

Fake Nora

  The sign over the covered antique mirror said DO NOT TOUCH. Twelve-year-old Nora wished she had listened. Mirrors reflect what is in front of them, but what happens behind the glass-to the reflections themselves? Nora finds out when her own reflection, aka Fake Nora, changes places with her one night. Nora is shoved in a place that looks exactly like her house with no echoes, dull lights, and muted sounds. It isn't her home at all, simply a shell of a place she loves. Fake Nora is living her best life in Nora's house, feeding on the fear of her little brother while no one else at the house knows anything is wrong. Inside "reflectionland," Nora meets thirteen-year-old Jesse, who has been stuck in his mirror since the forties, and he warns her that they aren't alone in the house. There are others sneaking around, known as the bad ones-spirits of people who gave up after vanishing in the mirror. Refusing to stay a reflection forever, Nora conjures a plan to escape,...
