RECOMMENDED: Slippery Creatures by K.J. Charles is 99c! AJ reviewed this one and gave it a B+:
Long story short, if you’re looking for a fun thriller and you don’t mind buckling up for the long-ish haul on the romance (or if you just miss used bookstores as much as I do), give it a try!
The Deadly Hours is $2.49 at Amazon and $2.99 elsewhere! It’s also part of today’s Kindle Daily Deals. This is an interesting take on an anthology. You have four great historical mystery writers writing an interconnected story about a cursed gold watch. I’m super curious and Aarya mentioned it on a previous Hide Your Wallet.
Content warning: It’s important to note that the speculative history the book is based on is very very plausible, some already happening in our world, things like energy wars, crumbling infrastructure, and inept government officials cutting off essential resources and services so they can continue grabbing at more power. There’s also mentions and descriptions of torture in the book. Take stock of your mental and emotional bandwidth before diving in if any of these subjects … Continue reading Deal with the Devil by Kit Rocha
We don’t often do cover reveals, but when we do, it’s because a cover in an email attachment has made me say, out loud and with enough vigor to wake the cat, “HOLY CRAP.” This, y’all, is a HOLY CRAP cover. It’s pretty damn spiffy for all the work it’s doing to explain the book in an image, and I liked it so much I asked if I could pester the designer with questions. Big … Continue reading Cover Reveal: Deal With the Devil by Kit Rocha
Ashwin is the first book in the Gideon Rider’s spinoff series from writing duo Kit Rocha. I was so excited about this book that I even made a strong and very tasty cocktail to go along with it. If you haven’t read their previous Beyond series, you should still be fine with this one. Those who are familiar with the world will probably have a deeper appreciate of certain details in Ashwin, but it’s definitely not … Continue reading Ashwin by Kit Rocha
Beyond Shame is erotic dystopian romance with a side order of dark intensity. So many people whose opinions I respect have raved about it (and have also told me that this book is not my thing, even though it's good, so I haven't read it). It's free right now, so if any of those are your catnip, grab it before the price goes back up! All Noelle Cunningham has ever wanted is a life beyond–beyond … Continue reading Books on Sale: Kit Rocha Books 1 & 2 and Historical Fiction from Germany

While I was at RT, Ms Bookjunkie asked me if I'd be willing to interview the writing duo behind Kit Rocha and Moira Rogers, aka Donna and Bree, as they were both attending RT together – a rare event! This interview turned out to be a LOT of fun – and really long, so I'm splitting it into two parts. Donna and Bree talk about each being half of a creative pair, about how they … Continue reading 92.

Happy New Year! Let’s kick things off with some pretty covers. Cover design by Hang Le Sarah: This is book 2 in the series that’s officially called Bound to Fire and Steel but is more colloquially known as “horny dragon book.” Amanda: The colors are striking and the elements of fire give things an almost neon sign vibe. Sarah: Agreed, the use of light and color makes it almost glow. Amanda: I love smiles! It … Continue reading Cover Awe: Pinks, Purples, & Smiles
