When you think life can’t get worse, the universe says: hold my beer.

Anastasia

This forty-five-year-old honey badger shifter is newly single and ready to mingle.

And freaking tired of playing small.

The fantastic news? I’m no longer alone. I have a sister and an entire birth family in Hoodoo, Texas. But with some new unexplainable powers, I may be too big of a freak for even my vampire aunt to accept.

The bad news? The sadistic honey badger clan I fled twenty-five years ago has found me. Someone else is trying to kill me. And if their threats of kidnapping, forced mating, and death weren’t enough…

I’m going into heat. Of course, the only viable candidate to offer a... helping hand is my escort to Texas–a grumpy werewolf who doesn’t even like me.

Carlos

I’m in San Diego to make the long-lost sister of my former high school sweetheart disappear—by any means possible. Instead, I discover that not only is the sister her identical twin, but my fated mate.

Now, my mission is to get the violent ball of sunshine to Hoodoo, where she’ll become someone else’s problem. That should be easy enough because I’m a wolf with a plane, a plan, and a purpose. What could go wrong?

How about everything?

Midlife Gumbo is the third book in the Boudin, Barbecue, and Hoodoo series. While it’s part of the larger world, this full-length paranormal romance is a stand-alone.

If you love road trips, laughter, and grumpy sunshine stories, then you’ll love Midlife Gumbo. This novel is high in humor and medium in spice and perfect for fans of Darynda Jones, Mandy Roth, and K.F. Breene.

#BookTour: Road to Nineveh by Charles Besondy @RABTBookTours





 

The Lighthouse, Book 4

 

Contemporary Christian Fiction/Thriller

Date Published: December 26, 2023

Publisher: Besondy Publishing LLC


 

When Charley Austin Marches to the Wrong Beat, Life Gets Ugly

 

Twenty-year-old Charley Austin travels a torn and troubled world as the star drummer and lyricist for the famous Christian rock band, DelivRus. He has musical gifts and a clear mission from God.

And that mission makes him a big problem for Lucky Zebul.

Zebul implements a sinister and depraved plan to crush the vulnerable rock star and put an end to the band’s Godly influence in the world.

Against a backdrop of societal upheaval, Road to Nineveh continues the story of Charley Austin (introduced in Book 3, The Snare) as he, like a modern-day Jonah, faces the harsh consequences of turning away from God’s purpose for his life and succumbs to pride and lust.

Follow the gripping, emotionally charged story as Charley performs in the bright lights with DelivRus across America and Europe, igniting hope and faith, while off-stage his soul is systematically smothered by the darkness.

Will the tough love of his parents, band mates, and Mia be enough to bring him back from a devastating scandal? Will he regain purpose for his life on a sun-baked Texas ranch, or for redemption, must he make one more trip to the Lighthouse on the misty Washington coast?

Besondy’s Christian thrillers have been compared to the character development and emotion found in a Charles Martin novel. Others suggest Besondy writes as if he is the secret lovechild of C.S. Lewis and Stephen King. You can decide.


Road to Nineveh will appeal to fans of edgy Christian Thrillers or New Adult Thrillers.

 

Road to Nineveh by Charles Besondy received a gold medal in the Christian Mystery/Thriller category of the 2024 Illumination Book Awards.

Reword to suit.

When my dad retires, I take over as the new owner of the Charleston Coyotes hockey team.

As a businessman and father of a teenage daughter, I’m prepared for the challenges of the game, but Maeve, the stunning blonde I meet on a dating app—not so much.

Despite the large age gap, the connection between us is electric, and our one-night hookup quickly spirals into something deeper.

But life checks me harder than a hockey player when I discover Maeve is the executive assistant my dad raved about—which means she now works for me.

Suddenly, our steamy affair is put on ice, and navigating the delicate balance between boss and ex-lover becomes a high-stakes game with no playbook to follow.

Cue the awkward office encounters and the never-ending struggle to keep my hands off her.

Spoiler alert: I’m failing spectacularly.

It seems the harder I work at remaining professional, the more I long for her to once again obey this owner.
