The Confessional by K. Nilsson

Title: The Confessional
Author: K. Nilsson
Genre: Romantic Suspense/Psychological/Dark
Release Date: February 20, 2019
Cover Design: Alexander Dembrovsky of Mibl Art




Psychology student, Grace Fleming, is addicted to meaningless hook-ups in random places, impulsively following a script for self-destruction and bad behavior. She suffers from nightmares and a patchwork of flashbacks that leave her in a fugue state. Unsure what they mean, she goes to therapy, seeking answers. Is her mind conjuring them up or are they past encounters she’d blocked out?


Saint is a private investigator of dubious character. He will take almost any case, but his favorite includes entrapping married women into infidelity. Saint is hired to keep a watchful eye on Grace while keeping his identity a secret. The paradox tempts him; is Grace, a devil in disguise or an angel with a crooked halo? When he finds himself in a compromising position, Saint quits. He soon regrets resigning when he discovers a sinister threat to her safety, and it may be the reason for the nightmares.









K. Nilsson’s love of reading began with the Bobbsey twins. When she ran across some Italian True Romance novellas stashed in the attic, the musty serials hooked her on adult fiction. Though black and white photos were dramatic enough to know what the stories were about, she taught herself to read in Italian and translated them to her friends. 


She’s an unapologetic reviewer of books, restaurants, and vacation destinations. An amateur photographer, K. loves taking editorial photos and documenting her travels. Her personal philosophy, sleeping is a waste of time.

Take the journey, find the lock that fits the key and get some damn answers.



Get from point A to point B. Stick to the mapped-out route and take shelter at the pre-planned times. It sounds simple enough, now if only we’d factored in getting attacked by djinn and having to take a detour through The Wilds.

With obstacles at every turn, the last thing the fangs and I need on our arse’s is a new breed of Feral, but it looks like that’s exactly what fate us about to throw at us.

This trip is going to be anything but dull, but with the Fangs as back up, I may just make it to the Bunker in one piece and finally get some answers.

Whoever said road trips were fun can go suck it!

EXCERPT:

No. I didn’t. I didn’t want to hear it. “Don’t.”

The corner of his mouth lifted. “Oh, Eva, we are so past that.” His mouth crushed mine in a punishing kiss. The heat that had been gathering behind my eyes melted to tears.

“No!” I tore my mouth from him. “No. You don’t get to do this. Not now. I can’t. I won’t.”

He kissed me again, hard and desperate and hungry, as if trying to cram a hundred kisses into one. My heart swelled in my chest, and the numbness threatened to retreat. I shoved at his immovable torso, wanting him gone, but in the next heartbeat, I fisted his shirt, pulling him closer.

The Portrait by Whitney J. LeBlanc

Historical Fiction, Short Stories
Published: January 2018

 photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png

The Portrait is a story about three people from different cultures struggling to live through the social evolution of the 1960s. The lives of a Latino trapeze artiste, a Black man survivor-of-the-streets, and the White daughter of a wealthy Bible publisher, were thrown together during the tumult and the violence of bigotry and racial hatred, during the Civil Rights Era. The challenges in each of their lives are not unlike the soul-searching that each of us faces in our own daily struggle to remain true to ourselves, and maintain a connection to the biblical commandment; “Love your neighbor as yourselves.” A challenge not easily embraced along with the admonition that all men are created equally. This is a story that has echoes and repercussions in our present-day circumstances, as we struggle to bring truth, justice, and peace to our lives. This story is a repeat of the words from George Santayana, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”

Then I meet her.
Liv. The only person who sees past my busted knuckles and brutal exterior. She
sees…me. But being with me will get her killed. The only way I can

Doctors of Darkness Boxed Set by Ellery Kane






Title: Doctors of Darkness Boxed Set (Books 1-3)
Author: Ellery Kane
Genre: Psychological Thriller
Release Date: February 5, 2019




Series Blurb


Straight from the mind of a forensic psychologist comes an
addictive series of betrayal, lust, revenge, and murder. These doctors earned
their degrees from the dark side. The Doctors of Darkness e-book bundle
contains the first three books in the series: Daddy Darkest, The Hanging Tree,
and The First Cut.






Daddy Darkest

Bury your
secrets. Bury them deep...

A month
after her high school graduation, small-town-girl Samantha "Sam"
Bronwyn boards a plane with her best friend, Ginny. Destination: San Francisco.
But when Ginny disappears inside an airport bathroom wearing Sam's letterman
jacket, it doesn't take her long to figure out she was the intended target.
Alone in a strange city, Sam's on a run for her life--drawn into a dark past
she never knew existed. A past where secrets aren't all that's buried and where
revenge comes at the highest price.

Who is Sam
really--and who can she trust? The mysterious stranger in 4A who secreted a gun
in his backpack? The guilty ex-con? The disarming FBI agent? Her own mother?

Only one
thing is certain. Someone is after her. Someone who knows more about her than
she does. Someone who wants to teach her a hard lesson: There are worse things
than murder.



The Hanging Tree

What if you
couldn't remember the worst night of your life?
What if you
couldn't forget it?

May 13,
1994.

On her
thirteenth birthday, newly orphaned Evie, witnesses a brutal attack at the
hanging tree. She wakes the next morning on a bus to Los Angeles, dazed and
bruised and desperate to remember. Her best friend died that night--she's sure
of it. But there's no body, no crime scene, and no witnesses. Twenty three
years later, the whole night is still a blur. The murderer, a faceless,
nameless man.

Fresh out
of a stint in juvie, Butch kills a girl, strangles her. Twenty three years
later, he walks out of prison a free man. But a haunted one, the ghost of his
past at his heels.

When
another body turns up at the hanging tree--a girl, strangled--Evie is certain
her lost memory holds the key. Can Butch help her find the faceless man? Or is
he hiding the darkest secret of all?



The First Cut

When "Love Doctors" Ian
and Kate Culpepper are brutally murdered in their Carmel mansion on Valentine's
Day, Ava knows it's karma. Because Ian's leaving her for perfect Kate four
years ago had cut her bone deep. And then they had the nerve to show up here,
on her turf. With their perfect house and their perfect daughter and their
matching perfect smiles.



It's no wonder Ava can't stop watching. It's no wonder she can't let go.





But Ian is far from perfect, and Ava owes a debt too. For the unforgivable
thing they'd done together. The dark deed that severed their marriage in two.
When Ava's name is found inked in blood at the crime scene, a reckoning seems
inevitable. Someone knows what she's hiding. Someone sees what she's done. And
karma is ready to collect its pound of flesh.

Forensic
psychologist by day, novelist by night, Ellery Kane has been
writing--professionally and creatively--for as long as she can remember. Just
like many of her main characters, Ellery loves to ask why, which is the reason

fiction, and Ellery's writing is often inspired by her day job. Evaluating
violent criminals and treating trauma victims, she has gained a unique
perspective on the past and its indelible influence on the individual. And
she's heard her fair share of real life thrillers. An avid short story writer
as a teenager, Ellery recently began writing for enjoyment again, and she
hasn't stopped since.

Ellery's
debut novel, Legacy, has received several awards, including winning the Gold
Medal in the Independent Publisher Book Awards, young adult, e-book category,
and the Gold Medal in the Wishing Shelf Independent Book Awards, teenage
category. In 2016, Ellery was selected as one of ten semifinalists in the
MasterClass James Patterson Co-Author Competition.
