“The Distance Between High and Low” is a Southern Gothic novel about the consequences for two young people who set out to learn the identity of their father. Teenaged twins, Lizzie and Peck live in the house of their eccentric, widowed grandmother Pearl--a house of history and secrets-- along with their unstable, drug-addicted, artist mother, Lila, and Izear, a half-Cherokee Indian devoted to Pearl who took him into her house many years before.  Often with dark humor, the story focuses on the strivings of complex characters in the fictional town of Highlow, Alabama from the 1960’s into the 1980’s.

#BookReview for Empress of All Seasons by Emiko Jean


Synopsis: In a palace of illusions, nothing is what it seems.

Each generation, a competition is held to find the next empress of Honoku. The rules are simple. Survive the palace’s enchanted seasonal rooms. Conquer Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall. Marry the prince. All are eligible to compete—all except yōkai, supernatural monsters and spirits whom the human emperor is determined to enslave and destroy.

Mari has spent a lifetime training to become empress. Winning should be easy. And it would be, if she weren't hiding a dangerous secret. Mari is a yōkai with the ability to transform into a terrifying monster. If discovered, her life will be forfeit. As she struggles to keep her true identity hidden, Mari’s fate collides with that of Taro, the prince who has no desire to inherit the imperial throne, and Akira, a half-human, half-yōkai outcast.

Torn between duty and love, loyalty and betrayal, vengeance and forgiveness, the choices of Mari, Taro, and Akira will decide the fate of Honoku in this beautifully written, edge-of-your-seat YA fantasy.

#ReleaseBlitz for Big Sky by @ddwyattauthor @GiveMeBooksPR

Blurb

When my feet hit the dirt at the Big Sky Dude Ranch, I have a pretty good idea what to expect.  What happens next nearly shakes me out of my brand-new cowboy boots.  See, I’m here to write a travel article, but in one instant my interest in saddles, horses, and the Montana sky evaporate.  All I see are blue eyes, chiseled cheekbones, and a black cowboy hat.

What I find out, is the quiet cowboy who owns this land is the measure of alpha.  Quiet. Controlled.  He’s older but has a body carved from fresh air and decades of hard work.

I do what I can to maintain my professionalism.  After all, for two days he’s barely looked my way.  And yet, he’s ruined every pair of panties I brought.

One slip and everything changes. Garrett West shows me what’s underneath that calm cowboy exterior.  And, let me tell you, it’s big.

Except, we are from different worlds.  Different decades.  And some differences may be impossible to overcome.

Author’s Note:  Saddle up for a ride that will leave you weak in the knees.  This May-December pair do their best to maintain some distance, but once they are forced to touch, the sky opens and worlds collide in the hottest sort of way.  Always safe, no cheating, and love at the speed of light.

Mistaken for her beautiful half-sister, Ellen Winthorp is taken captive by a madman who declares that she will be his "fifteen": the fifteenth victim of a vicious blood feud. Armed with only her instincts, Ellen must resist her captor for as long as she can—which is easier said than done the more she's exposed to the complex man beneath the beast.

Because Mischa Stepanov isn’t a mindless monster—he’s a wolf, and she’s the unwitting doe caught in his midst.

Unraveling the torment of his past may be her only hope of salvation...

Or the secrets uncovered may destroy them both.
