Enemy Held Territory Thomas Wood
May 1944. Preparations for D-Day are almost finalised, but then, there's a problem.

The Germans have bolstered their defences, with signs of more to come.
Maurice Dumont, a seasoned SOE Agent, is tasked with locating and stealing the plans for the additional defences, so the Allies can stay one step ahead.
Can Dumont trust his local resistance guide? Or is it himself that he needs to call into question?

Witches Gone Wicked: Womby's School for Wayward Witches Sarina Dorie
You think you know the world of magical boarding schools? Not from a teacher’s perspective at a school for at risk youth.
Like any twenty-two-year-old who grew up obsessed with fantasy novels, Clarissa Lawrence expects all her Harry Potter fantasies to come true when she is invited to teach at a school for witches.
As if being the new “arts and crafts” teacher isn’t hard enough at a school for juvenile delinquent witches, budget cuts are just as severe in the magic community, administrators are as unrealistic in their expectations of teachers, and the job is a hazard if the students find out you can’t actually do magic.
As if this isn’t enough pressure, she has to figure out why teachers are mysteriously disappearing. If she doesn’t, she might be next.

All the best.
I downloaded this book as something to read over my lunch break and completely fell in love! I found the characers so wonderful and believable. The world-building is just amazing! I definitely will be looking up the rest of the Womby's School for Wayward Witches books!

Ecellent read, this is a book that stands out as something special. Great story, well plotted and unmissable,.
A thrilling revenge story. Looks awesome. Can't wait to get my paws on it!
Great premise, cool cover!
Good pace and well thought out. I love Glenn's writing style and the depth of his characters always keeps me interested. Great book !
Love the writing style, the 'voice' that sounds so clear its like he's sitting next to my bed reading to me. Check out his website; it's cool without being in any way contrived. Great cover designs, too. This writer is 'one to watch', as they say. Not all short story writers try their hands at novel writing - Carver didn't - but I can't help feeling that if Glenn doesn't it would constitute a crime in its own right. For now, though, let this little gem wet your appetite!

Kindred Intentions Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
24 hours. 2 people. 1 target.
It was 10 a.m. when undercover agent Amelia Jennings arrived at the law firm Goldberg & Associates for a job interview. Her mission was to investigate a series of murders involving some well-known lawyers in the City. Her target, an elusive hired killer who had been of interest to the police for months.
But her plan is doomed to fall apart before it even starts.
In less than twenty-four hours Amelia will be the prey in a man hunt and her destiny will become entwined with Mike Connor’s.
Their intentions, apparently similar, may prove to be opposite, but the affinity binding them goes beyond what they think they know about each other.
One day to survive. One day to let go of the past.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.
