Gilded
Rose

.
A
Sinister Bouquet: Awakening
by A. Nicky Hjort
Devyn
Mitchell has a choice- listen to the voice of her unborn baby or
die... again.
.
Captive
by
Samantha Jacobey
Raised
to be an assassin, used by Bikers and Drug Lords and hunted by the
FBI, Tori Farrell is running for her life.... Can you handle the
ride?
Captive by Samantha Jacobey I read this story a while ago and then had to continue reading the series. Not part of my typical reading pattern, as a reader I felt compassion for Tori, both loved and lost respect for Eli, her FBI handler, and became lost in the story from beginning to end.
Samantha Jacobey took on a very large task. She chose a topic and format that are extremely difficult to accomplish successfullly. Then she knocked it out of the park.

Negative
Eight
by Aubree Lane
Wedding
day dream or disaster?
The first story I chose to read in this collection was Negative Eight (Fallen Leaf Collection 2)
by Aubree Lane. This is a feel good story in which horrible things happen to the primary characters. In fact, the people they should be able to trust and care most about are the ones who do the worst to disappoint and hurt them.
Aunt Corrine decides that a true story of her own experience will go far to calm the pre-wedding nerves of her favorite nephew and his beloved. I found myself as captivated as Dani and Blake.

Fatal
Lies
by Kristen Luciani
When
forbidden lust becomes a deadly game, the price of silence may be too
high to pay.
.
Shot
of Whiskey
by B.B. Raven
He
was the perfect horse, that fell into the wrong hands.
Shot of Whiskey by B.B. Raven gives us a taste of the author's talent. Whether you are a horse person or a horse admirer, you'll want a piece of the action. Secrets, mystery, betrayals all left me wanting more. Tough decisions must be made by everyone without knowing the facts.
.
Saving
Cassie
by L.A. Remenicky
Everyone
has secrets, sometimes secrets can get you killed.
.
Crescent
Vendetta
by Desiree L. Scott
Vanessa
Burns has survived a life of brutality and neglect within a pack
hated by many but will she be strong enough to survive the possession
of an Alpha who should hate her?
.
Lucy’s
Vision
by Taya Wood
Lucy
radiates bright, invigorating colours and sees into hidden worlds.
Being normal and fitting in holds little appeal for this small-town
Aussie girl until testing her powers to their limits threatens her
sanity.

Rebekah
Dodson
is a prolific word weaver of romance, fantasy, and science fiction
novels. Her works include the series Postcards from Paris, The
Surrogate, The Curse of Lanval series, several stand alone novels,
and her upcoming YA novel, Clock City. She has been writing her whole
life, with her first published work of historical fiction with 4H
Clubs of America at the age of 12, and poetry at the age of 16 with
the National Poetry Society. With an extensive academic background
including education, history, psychology and English, she currently

A.
Nicky Hjort
is originally from Arlington, Texas- the second of five siblings, all
of whom have strong creative talents. She currently lives in coastal
central California where she practices medicine as an Ob/GYN. In
between being a lovingly devoted mother and delivering babies, she
writes stories that cross multiple genre lines- from Sci Fi to high
fantasy, but all of her stories have thriller and strong romantic
components. And for her clever reader, all of her manuscripts are
subtly connected to each other, with their purpose to explore all
facets of Love and Light. She likes to say that her stories write
themselves, and in the process, often write her, or at least the next
version of her hoping to emerge. A lover of all the arts, A. Nicky
Hjort hopes her stories might inspire you to find your inner creative
genius.
As
for her heroes- they are as varied and eclectic as her choice of
narrative genres, but when pushed to list her favorite influences,
she would say James Patterson, Barbara Kingsolver, Patricia Cornwell,
Dean Koonntz, Gene Roddenberry, Shel Silverstein, Suzanne Collins,
and Walt Disney.
Samantha
Jacobey
Anyone
who knows me could tell you, I am a friendly kind of person, never
met a stranger and take up conversations any where at any time. I
work hard, and my mind never seems to shut down, as I wake up often
in the middle of the night with ideas pouring out and demanding to be
dealt with. Of course that means much of my books were written in the
middle of the night.
I
grew up and still live in the great state of Texas where everything
is bigger, where we have warm weather and a central location. I love
my state, my town, and my family, which includes my four sons, my
significant other, and many friends as well.
I
have thoroughly enjoyed writing the books that are currently
available and hope you will enjoy reading them just as much. And of
course, there will be many more stories to come.
Aubree
Lane
is a true story teller. This award winning author has been writing in
one form or another for most of her life and has loved every
moment.
Aubree
lives in the beautiful foothills of Northern California with her
husband, two wonderful sons, and a super special peek-a-poo named
Tanner. When not managing the pooper-scooper, Aubree can be found at
one of her favorite vacation spots ranging anywhere from Lake Tahoe
to Maui.
Her
motto: Write Until Your Butt Hurts, And Your Eyes Are
Crossed.
Aubree
and her husband enjoy the harvest of their seasonal garden and
relaxing in the paradise they created, called home.
Kristen
Luciani
is a bestselling author and self-proclaimed momtrepreneur with a
penchant for stilettos, Silicon Valley, plunging necklines and
grapefruit martinis. As a deep-rooted romantic who prefers juicy
drama to fill the lives of anyone other than her, she tried her hand
at creating a world of enchantment, sensuality, and intrigue, finally
uncovering her true passion. No pun intended…
B.B.
Raven
I
am very stubborn and independent. I have a big heart and I love
children. One of the reasons why I chose to contribute to the Shades
of Fear Anthology is because it was for a charity that would
help children with cancer. I had a very unstable childhood; my father
was an alcoholic and my mother abandoned me. Thank goodness for my
grandparents. My grandfather, who is now 78, is still a big part of
my life. My son and I help take care of him. We are simple southern
folk who enjoy collard greens and fried chicken on Sundays.
L.A.
Remenicky ~ Love Stories With A Twist
L.A.
Remenicky is a wife and mother of two fur kids. A payroll
professional by day, she writes out the stories in her head by night.
An
avid reader all her life, she finally put pen to paper (or fingers to
keyboard) during NaNoWriMo in 2012 and has never looked back. When
she’s not typing away on her latest story with music playing in the
background, she can usually be found spending time with her family
and friends.
Desiree
Scott
I
have been writing since I was sixteen years old and love to write
both horror and romantic suspense. I think there have been many
influences within my life that has set me on the path that I can not
help but walk. A few of those names consist of Karen Rose, Lisa
Gardener, Nora Roberts, Cynthia Eden, Catherine Anderson, Laura
Griffin, Andrea Kane, and Lisa Jackson, just to name a few. This list
by no means defines by own writing but they have indeed influenced my
desire to live outside of my own world and to create the thrill of my
dreams. I live on 40 + acres in the SHOW ME state with my six year
old daughter, with the wonderful addition of four dogs and a handful
of chickens. The weather is unpredictable, but the surrounding beauty
of the country helps my creativity as I sit on my top deck with my
laptop and coffee close by.
Taya
Wood
Unexplored
possibilities and impossibilities have always fascinated Taya Wood.
As a child she would stargaze most nights, wondering about the
universe and imagining how things used to be, are, and could be in
the future, so writing speculative fiction was inevitable.
Having
spent her former years as a graphic designer and life coach and then
running a business assisting creative people to earn a living, Taya
now writes magic realism and paranormal fantasy.
She
lives in an eco house in a forest with her husband, several
kingfishers and kookaburras, a fishpond, some water dragons and a
very large goanna.
