Single mom Lexie Bell hopes to make this first Christmas in their new home special for her six-year-old son, Brock. Festive lights and homemade fudge, check. Friendly neighbors? Uh, no.

Until she shows up in his dreams and informs him it’s time to ditch his scroogey attitude. Stanley digs in his heels, but she’s determined to haunt him until he wakes up and rediscovers the joys of the season. He can start by being a little more neighborly to the single mom next door. In spite of his protests, he’s soon maki

  I thought I’d die in the dungeons. My father is a terrible man. He claimed a demon lived inside me and imprisoned me for months in his torture chamber. Then, one fateful day, he found himself on the bitter end of a curse, and he offered me in exchange for his freedom. I thought my life was over, but I was wrong. While trapped within curse creator’s ancient castle, phantoms begin speaking to me. They caress me with invisible hands, and proclaim I’m theirs.

Their snarls and roars awaken something dark within me, and their pull is impossible to resist. I’m changing, becoming something greater than I ever thought I could be. When the past comes back to haunt me, and my future is compromised, I find myself facing an old enemy. This time, though, I won’t submit. This time, I’ll become the demo

  Description From writer, producer, and actor best known as "Murr" on the hit television shows  Impractical Jokers  and  The Misery Index , James S. Murray, and co-writer Darren Wearmouth, comes  The Stowaway , a suspenseful masterpiece that leaves a cruise ship stranded at sea with a serial killer hiding aboard. Two years ago, Maria Fontana, the head of the Psychology Department at Columbia University, sat on a jury for one of the most depraved cases ever to pass through the hallowed halls of City Hall. Wyatt Butler, an antique watch restorer and alleged serial killer, was portrayed in the courtroom as a brutal monster. But Maria had to make the tough choice. In good conscience, she couldn't convict him based purely on circumstantial evidence, and her deciding vote set Wyatt Butler free.

Release Date: September 20 Runaways . . . You’ve heard about kids running away, but do we ever truly know why they run? Rae and Law had no choice. Forced to run when life let them down, when it was either leave or be subjected to an unimaginable fate. Can they survive? Two young people, completely alone on the streets with nothing but each other. This is their story. Can love win?  Or will the big, bad world be even more cruel than what they had to face in their small hometown? For Raelynn Sanders and Lawson Davis, anything is possible as long as they have each other. Trigger Warning: this book deals with sensitive topics such as verbal and physical assault/intimidation. There is no rape, but some uncomfortable situations are mentioned and occur on page. My Review This newest offering is s bit of a departure from the steamy romances that I have recently been reading from this author. I did really like this book. Rae and Law's story is heartbreaking but at the same time sweet
