New Release from CJ Burright!

Wherever, Whenever by CJ Burright

Sometimes the only way to forget the ghosts of the past is to face the curse of love head-on.


Artist Vi Keller made a holy vow to never return to her quirky hometown of Devils Hollow. But when the sister she left behind pleads for help during the busy Halloween season, Vi can’t say no—even if it means a month of watching her ex-BFF Max loving someone new…and braving the darkness awaiting her return.


Max has fantasized about Vi every day since she disappeared. Some of those dreams revolve around revenge, but when Vi shows up at his historic bed and breakfast, his thoughts take a steamier turn. She may still own his heart, but he rebuilt life without her and doesn’t need a blonde bombshell with tempting artwork skin to wreck him again.


When Vi and Max are forced to partner up during the seasonal festivities, it’s just like old times, resurrecting a desire that never died. But happily-ever-afters in Devils Hollow are paid in blood and bones. Missing pets, tourist attractions turning sinister and shadows stalking the lake point to Vi’s worst fear—the spirit that failed to destroy her once has neither forgiven nor forgotten. If Max and Vi can’t untangle the tragic past of a local urban legend, they’ll lose more than a second chance at love.

Why I wrote the book: No Good Deed by January Bain

 

May 12, 2024

Good Morning to you and Happy Mother's Day!

As some of you may know, I was honored and happy to sign back in December with Rough Edges Press, an imprint of Wolfpack Publishing. Since then, I have been rewarded with realizing what a great decision that was!

Today, I want to talk about my newest release and why I wrote, No Good Deed.

No Good Deed is a book written not only from real world experience, but from the heart. Many years ago, I tried to do what the protagonist does in the story. No, I didn’t go nearly as far as my character, Katie Kelly does when she hides a young girl in her safe room. I didn’t have the resources that Katie does, or the wherewithal.

I was barely out of my teens when a young woman a couple of years older than I was at the time came to me for help one day while I was at work. But I did have the loan of a half ton that would allow me to move her, her two small children, and her possessions to a new location. Loading that old truck, I felt the urgency of time pressing in. The abusive husband was at work and if he discovered she was missing, I had no idea what he would do to her. Or to me for that matter.

The part I found most unsettling, was after we managed to fill the truck box with her things, drive the thirty miles to her new location, and while we were unloading her stuff, she changed her mind. Drive me back, she demanded.

I was stunned, worried, and tried to talk her out of it. But she was more concerned that he would find her and she wouldn’t budge. I had no choice but to do as she asked, piling her things back onto the truck and tying them down. Filled with regrets, I left her that day with her two children, wishing I knew more about life and how to help her. I did try to keep in touch, but she pulled back and wouldn’t share anything more with me.

Not long after, I moved about four hours away, taking up a teaching position in a different community. I still have regrets to this day. This story, No Good Deed, is told from a bit older person’s POV, who knew more than I did, as I would know now. And looking back, I realized there was little more I could have realistically done. Do I wish it had turned out differently? Of course, but in the end, we all choose our own lives.

In No Good Deed, I have addressed this issue and it felt good to write a strong female lead that did what Katie Kelly did for her neighbor. I admire strength in people. People willing to step up and help when they can.

Please, feel free to share any thoughts you have about No Good Deed. It’s very rewarding to connect with fellow readers and I always respond promptly, thanks to my grandma. She taught me many things, sharing her values and wise advice, from never be late or keep others waiting to always be kind and helpful. I like to think I walk a little in her giant footsteps.

Wishing one and all a lovely day,

January Bain/Storyteller

And when lead singer Valen Lesellane rescues her from a gang of thugs by announcing she’s his fiancée, Starla goes along with it. Why not?

Before long she has regained contact with her other sisters and finds herself finally able to be happy, both with Valen and with her family.

But with her parents pursuing her and Mike fiercely against her relationship with Valen, can their unexpected engagement last beyond the bus tour?

Declan Hunt is having a bad week. His kidnapping case is showing little progress, his office assistant has left him on short notice, and his latest investigation has left him literally battered and bruised. But things change when he hires twenty-four year old Charlie Watts to help out at the office. They form an unlikely partnership while trying to solve two seemingly unrelated cases whose threads begin to weave together when the missing person case turns to murder.


The investigation takes them from the dark alleys, gay bars and bath houses of Calgary to the richest parts of the city during the world-famous Calgary Stampede.


But will they be able to discover who the killer is before another life is lost? And will Declan be able to solve the mystery of his relationship with Charlie, who is clearly attracted to him — especially since it is evident that the attraction is becoming mutual?

Ember by Ellen Mint

Ember had devoted her life to building love for others. She never counted on Booker knocking her over.

“Fun, fast-reading story with surprise twists and sweet and steamy

moments."

—Diana G ★★★★★


“I ended up falling in love with Ember by the end. This enemies-to-lovers story features lots of twists, an underdog MMC, and the redemption arc of a lifetime!"

—Jordan T ★★★★ 


Constructing Love is the first reality show to combine home improvement with romance. Ember Woodhouse can't wait to cast her matchmaking magic while charming America as she designs the interior of an abandoned autumn resort. Harriet Smith is an adorable country bumpkin in desperate need of Ember's help to win the entire show. Everything goes perfectly to plan... until Ember finds herself partnered with the infuriating deadweight that is Mr. Knightley.


Booker Knightley is exhausted with the show, with the producers, with life and particularly with his partner. He thought his construction background would make winning this easy. No one told him he was also expected to woo a woman who drives him mad. Miss Woodhouse is flighty and stubborn, ignoring reality in favor of her delusions of romance. He couldn't care less about love, much less the impossibility of finding it while cameras document his every breath. Booker has his own reasons for being on this show, reasons that are in jeopardy thanks to Miss Woodhouse and the scheming producers.


As the autumn leaves fall and the days grow shorter, Booker and Ember have a choice to make. If Booker doesn't learn to work with her, he'll lose his last opportunity to bring justice to his family. If Ember can't figure out how to agree with him, her fledgling design business will crash before it takes wing. One thing is certain— Miss Woodhouse will never, ever care for Mr. Knightley.

Darke Passion, Darke Paranormal Investigations

by Rosanna Leo

Ghosts can’t hurt the living? The Darke sisters know otherwise.

https://books2read.com/u/3J6MNK



Edwina Darke is one of a trio of ghost-hunting sisters who rid clients of their unwanted

supernatural visitors. A badass by nature, Edwina doesn’t run from haunted houses—she runs into them.

Yet no matter how many “ghosts” she debunks, she remains troubled by a demon from her own past.

Simon Teal is the co-owner of a historic B&B in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario, a town famous for its

connection to the 1812 War. Simon doesn’t believe in the spirit world, but something is chasing

his customers away, so he reluctantly allows the Darke sisters to investigate.


As the team uncovers the star-crossed love behind the B&B haunting, Edwina and Simon’s

attraction flares. It’s the last thing either of them needs. The dedicated Edwina refuses to lose

herself in another relationship, and Simon is still reeling from a terrible betrayal.


When a darker presence reveals itself, triggering their protective instincts, Edwina and Simon succumb

to temptation. But the evil entity has taken an interest in them, and if they don’t solve the mystery,

someone new could end up going “into the light.”


And it could be one of them.
