She came over to see if she could console him, help him somehow. His name was Tom, and he had the most amazing eyes she'd ever seen.
But something was different about him, something that haunted even her.

The Case of a Cruising Phantom by S. H. Marpel Living Sensical
I knew exactly why I was still here. To haunt whoever had pushed me overboard.
My only problem was finding them. And if they weren't still alive, they had relatives.
Meanwhile, I kept amused by haunting the ship's passengers and crew. And the cruise line didn't have a problem with it. Their "haunted cruises" were a big hit. Full capacity for this old boat and its evening dinner cruises out beyond the harbor.
"Misstep Mary" they called me. Even had a faded photo of me blown up and cut out so passengers could take photos with me "haunting" them. Because they ruled my death accidental. But would I still be here if it was?
So I arranged for the Ghost Hunters to show up and solve this. Otherwise, there was no peaceful 'going into the light'. Getting revenge might be all I get...

Mother of Rebellion - SAMPLE
Mother of Rebellion - SAMPLE B.K. Boes
The breaking was only the beginning...
Rebellion brews as nations struggle for power. Survival is pitted against compassion, duty against faith, and loyalties against love.
The Schism, a war that raged a thousand years ago, left the continent of Leyumin broken. Near constant war define the millennium afterward, but the heavens promised reunifcation and peace. Now, two nations vie for dominance and the title of Unitor. One does so through politics and manipulation, the other through brute force and self-proclaimed pure blood.
Five unlikely people will shape the things to come: a slave-wife, a warrior, a guardian of history, a disciple, and a young nobleman. Their decisions sow the beginnings of change, and the consequences they reap prove to be more than they're prepared to handle.

Magic Mafia. Sorcerer Police. A girl on the run from both.
Helena Martin doesn't know who she hates more, the sorcerers who fired the magic-laced bullet or the gang-lord master who used her mother as a shield. It's not the price she expected for escaping magical slavery, nor is the unstable power now pulsing in her veins.
Caught between her former master's hunters and the Guild Sorcerers determined to kill them, she finds a safe haven at a dog rescue willing to take in a different kind of stray. But Helena's newly-unleashed power is a beacon for her enemies. And they're threatening the first place she's ever thought of as home.

Maezy is no sleeping beauty.
She prefers her sword to magic, is more comfortable chopping off limbs than kissing lips, and she can visit people in her sleep. However, life isn't a complete realm walk for a hybrid like Maezy. She has a gift anyone might kill for, and she's trained her whole life to deal with that eventuality.
There should always be a Plan C.
Her father, the Elf King, has sent an army to kidnap her. He wants to use her talent to take over all the realms, but Maezy isn't ready to comply with his wishes. In fact, hoping to stop the onslaught, she's agreed to her mother's plan.
Now, the plan pits sorcerer against warlock, and Maezy's caught in the middle. Brandalfr might be assisting her father to kidnap her, but he's also her only hope to beat the Elf King.

Resonance
Resonance C.S. Vass
She’s an orphan, abused…and deadly.
Years of training have tempered her abilities like goddess-blessed steel.
But what good will it do when she can’t tell friend from foe?
Fiona’s city is in turmoil. Nobles vanish without a trace, and Haygarden’s people can’t agree which shadowy force is to blame.
Each night the assaults grow bolder. That’s why the Duke sends in Fiona’s brother—if the leader of an elite group of assassins can’t solve this problem, then nobody can.
That is, until Rodrick is kidnapped as well.
Can Fiona muster up the strength to save him? The city seems determined to stop her, but she’s never been one to listen to rules. Or fear banging swords with the underworld’s most fearsome villains.
Check it out now!

The First
The First A. Claire Everward
Find Her.
Is the ancient directive that has once again reawakened in the hearts of
those who hide.
Kill Her!
Is the frantic command of those who fear their rise.
Aelia returns from a vacation that did not go quite as she expected, to a
life she does not feel at home in but that is, at least, hers. Or so she thinks. Within days of returning she is targeted by a hitman and she has no idea why.
But then neither does he. All Kyle Rhys knows is that to protect humanity,
this woman must die. At least, he thinks, killing her will be easy. After all,
the organization that has raised him has prepared him for her death
his entire life. So why can’t he kill her?
In an impossible turn of events, both killer and target find themselves
on the run from those who would stop at nothing to destroy them.

Witch Mystery: Beth by S. H. Marpel
Witch Mystery: Beth by S. H. Marpel Living Sensical
Fighting off a rampaging troll in the woods just to rescue her milk cow wasn't the first thing on her list today.
Neither was finding a male wood nymph who needed her help.
What didn't help was his attitude of being "Nature's gift to women", but his broken leg meant he was going to perish out there when the next troll came along.
Come to think of it, maybe that troll was after him, and not her Bessie-cow?
Regardless, she just couldn't leave him out there. And in spite of his attitude, he was kind of cute, pointy ears and all.
If only she didn't have to now fend off her farm from other very real fairy-tale creatures, like goblins and witches, and of course, more trolls...

The Autists by J. R. Kruze Living Sensical
Carol and Reggie were different. They thought different. Reggie could talk "the ears off a corn stalk." He was an expert on history, like a walking Wikipedia on ancient times (if people could stand to listen to him.) Carol hardly talked, but her hugs could tell you the world. She could solve quintic polynomial equations. And a 4x4 Rubic's cube with one hand.
They were autists. "Special needs" people. Savants, kind of.
They were perfect for each other. Or maybe not. So different.
Between them, they understood the universe.
It was no small surprise that they were part of the next stage in human evolution. The one that's already here. Of course they knew it. But most of humanity didn't...

Young Brin lived on the streets; struggling to survive in the 31st Century. She simply did her job; prepping food for a clan of individual's clinging together in New York.
Though in truth, she liked to fight; she had a little rebel in her; some tomboy. By chance one day, she heard of a legendary Sisterhood of powerful strong-willed woman; those who were out to bring freedom back to the land. It would be so amazing to be part of something like that she thought; she had a dream and set out to find it.
Suddenly her life took a turn for craziness; kidnapped and nearly operated on by some odd altering, cybernetic project; everything now changed.
Brin had a purpose; she would never let another young girl suffer such an atrocity.
It was her chance to make a difference. This is her story!

My question was how to communicate with something who was older than all civilization as we knew it. What did it have in common with our modern culture? How to talk through an energy shield built to withstand the pressures of that depth?
I didn't have long to wait after we arrived.
Because something pulled me out of that shield and wanted to talk with me right now - deep underwater, ready or not...

Is There A Dragon In You?
I never should have let Steph drag me to that Psychic Fair. Metaphysical nonsense doesn’t suit me, Seattle doesn't suit me, and I think I might be allergic to patchouli. I’m definitely allergic to car accidents, to giant elk falling from the sky, and most importantly, to the huge, blue dragon that’s attached its obnoxious tail to my navel.
Just try having a smart-ass dragon nattering in your brain twenty-four-seven. Better yet, don’t try it. I recommend skipping the entire, batshit crazy, ordeal. Avoid black cats. Don’t get that Reiki treatment, and definitely don’t wake up alone, surrounded by other dragons who know way more than you do about what the hell is going on.

She’ll have to survive her new royal magic, convince a legion of angels she’s worth fighting for, and find the breach in her Faustian deal, or risk a new master with horns.

Tesseracts fold time and space. I inherited the ability to both find and control them.
Unlimited access to all universes. Sort of.
Yea, freaky. I know too well how freaky.
So I spent my life on the move - through many times, and many spaces. Forgetting where and when I'd been wasn't an option. My salvation was mastering the trick of retracing my path. To find my original home, to find the love I'd lived so long without.
It wasn't just missing a normal childhood.
If I didn't figure out how to get my life back under control, I'd just be growing older.
Alone.
Without any home or family or lover to ever call my own.

But there were no details left unaccounted for. Funeral arrangements paid for in advance. Even the police chief said it was a closed case. That didn't stop Detective Johnson from being curious...

Not only is he another blind spot—he’s also a Private Investigator hired to disprove her abilities in order to protect some missing girls they were both tasked with finding. With her psychic gifts on the fritz whenever Blake’s around, everything Diana’s fighting for starts to unravel.
Can Diana get over her deficiencies and show Blake how gifted she really is? Or will she let the callings of her ancient past cloud her judgment and derail her mission?
Either way, lives hang in the balance.

Reconciling Memory, excerpted from the upcoming Convicts & Exiles Gail Z. Martin
Kestel Fawke is a spy and a courtesan, sworn to avenge her mother and bring down the man who caused her mother's death. Yet as she considers her future, she realizes that what the world may need even more is a good assassin.
She writes stories that you can't put down. A wonderful imagination coupled with a love of history.
You can't go wrong with a story set in the Chronicles of the Necromancer world! I love her characters and you get sucked in from the first chapter!
Gail Z Martin never disappoints. Her books are fast-paced, roiling adventures that leave you wanting more.
I recently had the pleasure of reading Gail Z. Martin's The Summoner, the first installment of the Chronicles of the Necromancer. I enjoyed it so much that I immediately grabbed Scourge, the first book in her Darkhurst series, off the shelf at my local bookstore. Now I have TWO new series to finish reading!
If you enjoy fantasy, give this a chance. Prepare to be entertained for hours by a gripping plot, compelling characters, and a unique world.
A great story for fans of epic fantasy.

The Lonely Witness by R. L. Saunders
The Lonely Witness by R. L. Saunders Living Sensical
She told the magistrate she had been abused, taken advantage of, her reputation ruined.
Or had she?
The village law said that the benefit of the doubt lay with the most vulnerable. And so women were believed when they said some male had fondled or groped or acted in a threatening manner.
For Lyla, it had happened many times. All to her shame.
The men she accused were penalized and their own reputations marked.
Simply denying it was no defense. For in every accusation Lyla presented, there was no witness to say what had happened.
Most of these men stayed far away from Lyla after that. Many left the village.
All to Lyla's benefit. Or was it?

BLOODLINES: The League of Twelve
BLOODLINES: The League of Twelve K, Matthews N. Fishfish
What's your sign? What if your birth sign was more than a cliché blurb in the newspaper? What if, instead, you were fated to inherit supernatural powers and the responsibility of safeguarding otherworldly beings?
Sebastian Shea, a new member of The League of Twelve, has always known he would inherit the Cancer astral key from his father and use it to open a portal to another world. What he doesn’t know is what will be waiting for him when he returns home.
Attacked by Marcus, his father’s identical twin, and left for dead, Sebastian knows his only chance to live long enough to regain his key and take revenge is to make it to the City of Radiance.
Will Sebastian survive to get retribution? Will the other league members rally in time or will Marcus take even more from them?

A daunting task of astrology meets speculation, not in abstract, like Aleister Crowley once did, but in everydaylife words we all can understand! K, Matthews and N. Fishfish go for their very own, unique blend of the literal and the symbolical about the 12 astrological houses aka star signs, and embed it into their own alternative reality. There seems to be loads of thrill, the kind, which only proverbial reading between the lines, comparing, if authors and readers come to the same conclusions, can deliver! Splendid idea.

A couple of days after the cities died, I was there. Dancing.
Whether it was appropriate or not, there was no one around to care.
I had things to celebrate and this was my way.

It wasn't a sad occasion, but joyous.
...That was my reason for dancing. I was thankful. Grateful. To be alive. To have my family. To be able to enjoy this earth.

Ghost Hunters Part One by S. H. Marpel Living Sensical
It started with a dream.
In it, John Earl Stark solved the problem of a ghost he met. Or did he? It was a dream, after all.
The next day he meets two women who visit his cabin, arriving out of the blue, literally. (Well, one arrived with pitched black darkness which filled his cabin and made her cough.)
These two have an offer for Stark. All he really wanted was to enjoy the small cabin and solitude so he could write his detective stories.
These ladies had another offer - to help them solve the reasons ghosts don't move on. Plenty of new inspiration for stories, decent pay, won't interrupt his writing schedule.
Of course, he could die doing it...

Lady Molly of Scotland Yard by Baroness Orczy Midwest Classics Press
When her fiancee is falsely accused and the police are unable to find evidence to support his innocence, Lady Molly does the unheard of - she joins the police to improve their methods.
Lady Molly, like her fictional contemporaries, most often succeeded because she recognised domestic clues foreign to male experience. Her entry into the police is motivated by a desire to save her fiancé from a false accusation. Once her superior intuition has triumphed, Lady Molly marries and leaves the force.
This collection of short stories about Molly Robertson-Kirk was written by Baroness Orczy, who is best known as the creator of The Scarlet Pimpernel.
First published in 1910, Orczy's female detective was the precursor of the lay sleuth who relies on brains rather than brawn.
