Here are all of Leanna's books. <---Amelia Island Suspense series Leanna Sain Clare Bentley Meet The Author Facebook FB Group Instagram Amazon TikTok BookBub Goodreads Clare Bentley is a married mother of a son and a daughter, who are now adults. She was raised by a single mother and didn’t care to know her abusive biological father, instead considering her stepfather to be her dad. Playtime for her growing up was filled with creating scenarios to act out and making up dance routines to her favourite songs of the late 80s to early 90s. She discovered a love of writing in secondary school English, which was the only lesson she cared to attend, and the only GCSE’s she actually got a decent grade in. She never really had a passion for anything other than being a mother until she was one, and that’s when she decided to try her hand at writing. It started with fan fiction, about Backstreet Boys, then *NSYNC and – more recently – the TV show, Supernatural. She loved it and met some incredible friends that encouraged her to use her skills to tell her own stories, with characters she created from scratch. And that led her into the world of self-publishing. Here are her books. Clare Bentley Melony Ann Meet The Author Website Newsletter Facebook TikTok Goodreads BookBub Instagram Amazon Melony Ann began writing short stories and poetry as a child. She continued honing her craft over the years until she took the plunge and began publishing her work, despite having severe anxiety. Melony writes contemporary romance stories that are full of suspense and a lot of steam. When she isn’t writing, she is loving her family and working to make her life something she deserves. Melony believes that if her writing can inspire just one person, then all of her hard work is worth it. Her hope is that her writing allows each and every one of her readers to escape for a little while. To dive into a different world one book at a time. Here are her books. Melony Ann Ann Payton Meet The Author Linktr.ee Sometime in the 90s, I decided I needed a dream to pursue between working and raising three children. As the science lab coordinator for a Colorado community college, I enjoyed helping revise lab manuals, so why not become a travel writer? I managed to learn enough to sell freelance articles to several major publications. Then I wrote a travel adventure novel, which led me into giving lectures on cruise ships and writing another novel. Can't wait to see where that dream's going to take me next. Here are her books. Ann Payton Christine M. Germain Meet The Author Instagram YouTube Facebook Goodreads Twitter Christine M. Germain is an Award-Winning American author of Horror Thriller & Paranormal Romance fiction. Born March 8, 1981, in Brooklyn, New York, she found her passion for writing in 1993 and wrote her first horror story at twelve. Watching horror movies and reading young adult horror fiction novels influenced her love for writing a story with a protagonist that looked like her. African American women weren't portrayed as solid leads in horror films or books. Instead of waiting to see if that would happen, she created a story that she would love to read and watch on the big screen that catered to more diverse characters. Admiring authors such as Stephen King and R.L. Stein, Christine pursued her writing journey majoring in literature, and graduated with a performing arts degree. Known for an imagination unlike any other, Christine is ready to take you to a thrilling shapeshifter world with Four book series, "The Brother's Curse Saga." Here are her books. Christine M Germain Mike Cooper Meet The Author Website Mike grew up in Brisbane, Australia, imagining he was everything from a rogue pirate to an intergalactic traveller. His desire to write began as a student at primary school when one of his short stories won second prize in a local writing challenge. University and teacher training – another childhood imagining – beckoned following high school. His career spanned nearly 40 years during which he shared his love of learning with students of all ages, from pre-schoolers to adult learners. Now retired, he continues the sharing through this website and his scary, exciting fantasy novels aimed at the 10-12 age group. Mike’s other interests include playing piano, watching basketball games (his playing days are over) and story-telling with his grandkids. Here are his books Mike Cooper Linda Rettstatt Meet The Author Website Facebook Instagram Blog Linda Rettstatt began her writing career at the tender age of 18 while working as a classified ad clerk for her hometown newspaper. She covered the local community theater stories no one else wanted to cover, and she did so with enthusiasm, insisting upon a by line. Rettstatt’s creative nature steered her into a career as a semi-professional folk musician for a number of years. Finally, in 2002, she sat at a computer determined to find out if she could write a novel. That novel and three more were contracted by a small press. She moved from small press publishing to self-publishing in 2014 and has forty+ novels and novellas and several short stories in her bibliography. Six of her novels were finalists for the prestigious EPIC eBook Award, and two novels, Love, Sam and Ladies in Waiting, won the award in 2012 and 2016 respectively. In April of 2021, Linda retired from her social work position in NW Mississippi and relocated back to her home state of Pennsylvania where she continues to write and to offer services as an editor and writing consultant.

That's when I noticed a change in people that brought back many of my childhood memories from the '80s. Kids were riding their bikes and skateboarding together (I even noticed people rollerskating and rollerblading), families were outside going for walks and biking together, I hadn't seen this much family interaction since the '80s. Having siblings of various ages throughout the '80s, I witnessed and absorbed the New Wave era. Summers consisted of friends knocking on your front door (All the time!). You were hyped, anticipating the "Knock." We would walk or bike everywhere, arcades, movies, go fishing, swim. The most crucial part of the '80s was that friends simply hung out together and talked for hours. Imagination, friends, and the outdoors made the 80's. I'm James Murray, and I would like to dedicate this book to all the 80s fanatics around the globe. Here are his books. James Murray JM Samland Meet The Author Website Instagram Author Jamie M.
