Old friends are the best…

Catherine “Cate” Tibbs, Brooke Ridley, and Amber Anderson, friends since they were awkward thirteen-year-olds who named themselves “The Beach Babes,” are about to face their 40th birthdays. Because they haven’t been able to get together for some time, Cate arranges for them to rent a house along the Gulf Coast of Florida for a long weekend. She hopes it will give them the opportunity to celebrate and re-ignite their friendship. Cate, an author trying to finish a book, doesn’t know that Amber, a model, and Brooke, the mother of a boy in college and younger twin girls, are as worried about their own futures as she. Together, the three women support one another as they each face a crisis in her life, proving once again the strength of women’s friendships.

Each book is a standalone novel that is one of others based at the Seashell Cottage on the Gulf Coast of Florida. Different stories, different characters, same location.

Get ready to stay at The Seashell Cottage.

#BookReview: Bit Flip by Mike Trigg

Synopsis: Fortysomething tech executive Sam Hughes came to Silicon Valley to "make the world a better place." He's just not sure he's doing that anymore--and when an onstage meltdown sends him into a professional tailspin, he suddenly sees the culture of the Bay Area's tech bubble in a new, far more cynical light.

Just as he's wondering if his start-up career and marriage might both be over at fortysomething, an inadvertent discovery pulls Sam back into his former company, where he begins to unravel the insidious schemes of the founder and venture investors that led to his ouster. Driven by his desire for redemption, he discovers a conspiracy of fraud, blackmail, and manipulation that leads to tragic outcomes--threatening to destroy not only the company but Sam's moral compass as well. Entangled in a web of complicity, how far will he go to achieve his dreams of entrepreneurial success and personal wealth?

Bit Flip is a corporate thriller that delivers an authentic insider's view of the corrupting influences of greed, entitlement, and vanity in technology start-ups.

This title will be released on August 16, 2022.

#ReleaseBlitz: Raiders of the Dark Coast by F.P. Spirit @RABTBookTours @FP_Spirit

 

Rise of the Thrall Lord, Book Three

 

Fantasy

Date Published: 6/7/2022

 

 

How does one kill the unkillable? With magic of great power. What if that magic was stolen by pirates?

Demons from the Abyss hold the tower in the mountains and are using it to summon more of their kind. Once they have amassed a great enough force, nothing can stop them from destroying Arinthar and all life on it.

The problem is demons are not your normal monsters. Weapons of great power are needed to defeat them, demon slaying weapons like those of legend.

Rumors of the magic needed to forge such weapons point to the Dark Coast. It is a place fraught with danger—the home of deadly storms, ancient gods, and the thirteen pirate Clans of the Coast.

Can a small band of heroes brave the Dark Coast and find the magic they so sorely need before demons overrun their world?
