Women’s Fiction

Date Published: 12/28/2020

Publisher: Red Lace Books



It’s funny how things sneak up on you…

After 22 years of marriage, Kate Willoughby loves her husband, Brian, with an even greater passion than when she spoke her vows. “My world spins on his axis,” she admits. But when Kate finds a love letter to Brian from “Micky,” she’s torn between proving Brian’s innocence and nailing him to the wall with his guilt.

Seeking comfort and guidance, Kate turns to the one constant in her life: her animals. No surprise since Kate’s a champion for throwaways—discarded dogs and cats, abandoned horses bound for slaughter, and all creatures great and small. But she never imagined she would become a throwaway herself.

Yet few things are as they seem. Finding evidence that Brian still loves her, Kate is at a fork. Will she follow her human heart…or animal instincts?



About the Author

While earning a BA in Art and then an MBA, Kate worked at various jobs including go-go girl, bartender, and teaching assistant. At 26, she sold her 280Z and packed her dog and cat into a Ford truck and drove the Alcan Highway to Alaska where she spent 23 years exploring The Last Frontier in a single-engine Cessna. A vegan and animal rights advocate, Kate provides a sanctuary on her Arizona ranch for all creatures great and small. Every year, like the Gray Whale, Kate returns to Alaska. Kate Rene’ MacKenzie is the women’s fiction alter ego of romance novelist and Golden Heart nominee Maggie McConnell. Visit Kate’s website at KateReneMacKenzie,com.

About the Author

The Author is a full-time triple board-certified physician who started writing dramatic medical romances after 20 years in the trenches of health care. She’s done it all from candy striper (needed a wheelchair driver’s license) to nursing home aid (mastered wheelchair driving) to hospital barber for neurosurgery (they rated her skills as subpar.). She promises she never had sex in a call room – the mattresses are not comfortable – or had a fistfight with a patient – though she did work as a fight doc at the Octagon. Her stories are sexy, snarky, and real with all the romance and drama of the lives of our first responders.

She writes the MetroGeneral Downtown series that tackles the personal and professional challenges facing our front-line providers. Her stories have the drama of Grey’s Anatomy, the comedy of Scrubs, the sexiness of Outlander, and the medical details of Forensic Files. They feature fast, witty dialogue, strong women with goals, and quirky ensemble casts because the hospital is full of smart weirdos who are willing to save your life.

When not working or writing, she is a brown belt in judo, an avid reader, and an attending surgeon in stuffed animal veterinary medicine for her six kids. (No one trusts her husband’s medical skills because he’s just a lawyer.) You can follow her at carinaalyce.com

The Duchess Society Series, Book One

Regency Romance

Date Published: September 30, 2021

Publisher: WOLF Publishing



In this Regency romance by award-winning author Tracy Sumner, a willful bluestocking matches wits with a devilish scoundrel she never expected to desire with every beat of her heart.



A defiant society outcast.
A forbidding rogue who doesn’t believe in love.
And a passionate wager.

Daughter of an earl, Lady Hildegard Templeton hasn’t conformed to what society expects from a woman of her station. Industrious and unique, she’s created an emboldened organization for women on the cusp of marriage, The Duchess Society. Called a bluestocking to her face and worse behind closed salon doors, she vows to marry for love. And nothing but. Although the emotion has never shown itself to her. Until she meets him.

Bastard son of a viscount and king of London’s sordid streets, Tobias Streeter has spent a lifetime building his empire, and he needs the Duchess Society to find a suitable wife. An asset to expand his worth in society’s eyes. But he vows his search will have nothing to do with love and everything to do with vengeance. Until he meets her.

Soon, Tobias and Hildy’s plans are in turmoil as they choose between expectation, passion, and love.

The demanding duke needs a bride…

Dexter Munro, mere days from becoming the Duke of Markham, made a promise to his dying father to find a wife by the Twelfth Night. Except the only woman he’s ever desired has vowed never to marry again. Not even to become his duchess.

Georgiana and Dex share a sizzling attraction and a wicked past…but is their scorching passion enough to melt the Ice Countess’ heart?

Rise of the Thrall Lord, Book Two

Fantasy

Date Published: September 16, 2021



A horde of demons from the Abyss. A dread master of the undead. A choice between saving a single city versus the entire world.

The tower in the mists has been wrested from the Empress of the Damned and her undead army. Yet demons still hold the tower in the mountains and are using it to summon more of their kind.

The problem is demons are not your normal monsters. Weapons of great power are needed to defeat them, demon slaying weapons like those of legend.

At the same time, Penwick has come under attack from the inside. Creatures of the night have infiltrated the city and people are disappearing at an alarming rate. Even more terrifying, these vampires might be heralds of the dread Undead Thrall Master.

With all Arinthar at stake, can the companions protect Penwick and still find the magic they so sorely need before demons overrun their entire world?


Other books in the Rise of the Thrall Lord series:


City of Tears

Rise of the Thrall Lord, Book One

A cursed city shrouded in mist. The power to level an army. A deadly race against demons to find it.

Five hundred years have passed since Naradon, the mad emperor, ruled over the world of Arinthar. Unknown to all but a few, the emperor left behind a deadly legacy—seven towers scattered across the globe, each with the power to lay waste to an army.

Now demons have crawled up from the Abyss and taken one of those towers, using its power to summon more of their brethren. To make matters worse, a second tower has been uncovered and the demons want that one, too.

Yet that tower will not be taken easily. Shrouded in mist, the ancient city surrounding that tower has fallen under a terrible curse. All who once lived there walk the earth as undead, including the mad emperor’s wife.

Now a small band of heroes must enter the mists and wrest the tower from the empress of the damned and her undead army. For if they fail, the entire world is doomed to become hell on earth.

Enter a world of magic and adventure in this exciting tale of heroes in the making. Perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings and Dungeons & Dragons.

Jennifer's ChoiceJennifer’s Choice by Erin Osborne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Jennifer has had a rough start but her sole focus is her son Wade. She finds herself getting rescued by bikers Boy Scout and Wood, who realize she is the woman they want in their life. Jennifer though is not ready for what they want, she needs time to heal and find herself, but Wood and Boy Scout are determined to win her heart. Can she let them in?

This was a good one, shorter read from this author but you get a full story. I liked Jennifer, she is a bit angsty at time but given her history you understand why. Another great series from this author.

Renegade's Choice (Satan's Anarchy MC #4)Renegade’s Choice by Erin Osborne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

John ‘Renegade’ Jackson is the President of the Satan’s Anarchy MC, he sees Natasha and he is interested but life handed him a curve ball with finding out his ex-girlfriend who disappeared on him gave him a daughter. Thirteen years later he is trying to find his way being a Dad to a teenage girl who the more he gets to know, realizes has had a tougher life then he had wanted. The first sign of some normalcy in his new family though is Kora getting close to Natasha. Renegade realizes he need Natasha by his side as much as kora, but what happens when danger is looming?

Great story, one of the best so far. I liked Renegade a lot, he is temperamental and I thought the way he deals with all the hurdles in his life are intriguing. Natasha is terrific, and really enjoyed Kora.

Review: Darcy’s Downfall by Erin Osborne

Darcy's Downfall (Wild Kings MC: Dander Falls #1)Darcy’s Downfall by Erin Osborne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Darcy Quinn has caught the attention of Wild Kings MC bikers Brent ‘Crash’ Evans and Dominic ‘Trojan’ Martin. Darcy has rejected them at every turn but Crash and Trojan are all in, she is sassy and independent but it does not deter Crash or Trojan. What happens when she finally lets them in?

This was fun, a bit different then I expected. I really liked Darcy, she has overcome obstacles no one should. Crash and Trojan are terrific, you meet them in some other of the books and see the build up between the three. A ton of fun to read.
