#BookTour: My Second Life by Simon Yeats @RABTBookTours




Memoir

Date Published:   July 5, 2023

 

 

 

We all have two lives. We only get to experience living in the second after we realize we only have just one.

Simon Yeats had his first real scare in life when he was attacked by a kangaroo when he was seven years old. His first brush with the cliff-face edge of death came when he was 12. His father drove his family down the dangerous, 4WD only Skipper's Canyon dirt road in New Zealand in a rented minivan.

Including the occasions he was almost involved in two different plane flight crashes, in the same night, there have been at least a half dozen more times when the author has come within a moment's inattention of being killed.

However, none of those frightening incidents compare to what he experiences after his son is abducted to South America.

This memoir is the story of how Simon used the traumatic experiences of his life to give him strength to forge on during an incomprehensible 13 year fight to be a father to his son.


What did it take for him to get to his second life?

It took him to truly understand what fear is.

After five years, I’m finally about to get everything I’ve dreamed of — revenge against the men who destroyed my life.

There’s just one tiny complication — Imogene Prescott.

She was only supposed to be a tool. Someone I’d use, then toss out with the trash I thought she was.

She wasn’t supposed to get under my skin.

She wasn’t supposed to give me a reason to live.

But she did.

Now I have a choice to make — love or revenge.

But no matter what I chose, I fear it won’t be enough to protect her from the dangerous truth I’ve hidden from her.

Confucius warned to dig two graves when embarking on a journey of revenge.
I didn’t plan on one of those graves belonging to her.

She calls me Pretty Boy.
I call her mine.

From the first time I saw Bay Astor, that was it.

I wanted her.

Nothing would stand in the way of owning her the same way she possessed my thoughts. Not even a rivalry against the faceless gang that ran her part of town.

I’m the Prince of The Landings and she’s the South Shore runner with a love for burning rubber and fast cars, who won’t stop running product through my streets. We’re constantly at odds.

Nothing is more infuriating than her.

Truly the biggest pain in my ass…and I’m not the only one who’s noticed.

My best friend wants her as badly as I do, smitten as hell. And my other buddy thinks she’s the devil respawned, out to destroy us and everything we’ve built.
We’re just a bunch of stupid idiots who can’t figure out what to do with her.

But I’m looking to find out.

Bay Astor can run. She can hide. Hell, she can even deny that she wants me—which is a lie. I’ve never had a problem chasing her before.

Even if it costs me everything.

Tomás

I’ve lost everything.

Forced into a prison masking as a school, I find myself in the crosshairs of more than one killer. My savior? The arrogant prick who wants to control me. Kieran is a nightmare wrapped in a seductive package and when he sets his sights on me I don’t know whether to fight him or kiss him.

Kieran

I am the eldest bastard of one of the four founders of Arcadia University, and I will do anything to see my family fall.

The secrets I’ve kept hidden behind my heart now threaten to bury me alive with the arrival of Tomás. He consumes my space, my thoughts, my nightmares. I hate him for how he makes me feel. This toxic attraction between us forces me to question what matters most—vengeance, power, love. But Tomas doesn’t fit into my world of lies and violence and I’m not ready to lose it all for a beautiful dark temptation.

From New York Times bestselling author Penelope Ward comes a new, STANDALONE novel…

No one but me knew why I was actually in the California desert that day.
Nestled deep within the desolate, rocky area was a recording studio.
When a door suddenly opened, a man mistook me for someone he was supposed to be interviewing for a job.
The next thing I knew, I was whisked inside.
The position? An assistant on the upcoming tour for one of America’s most famous rock bands.
Pretty exciting opportunity for a twenty-two-year-old, just out of college.
Not surprisingly, I bombed the interview.
When I ended up mistakenly walking into the men’s room on my way out, I struck up a conversation with a stranger—not realizing it was the lead singer, Tristan Daltrey.
He seemed to like the fact that I had no idea who he was, that I saw him as a normal person.
That night, I got a call offering me the job.
So began my complicated story with Tristan.
Millions of women loved him.
Yet for some reason, after the shows, he only wanted to hang out with me.
Late-night talks. Casual dinners in his hotel room.
I wasn’t supposed to be fraternizing with the band’s frontman.
Despite our fifteen-year age difference, Tristan and I had a connection.
But I had a secret.
One that would eventually lead to my leaving the tour.
And one that would lead Tristan and the band straight to the small town where I came from.

Who Owns You?,  Book One

 

Science Fiction

Date to be Published: October 11th


 

Set in the early 23rd century, THE STARS RAIN DOWN follows an android woman pursuing a renegade human. At the same time, he searches for his missing wife and child, abducted by alien pirates, and sold into slavery. Special Agent Catherine Mercer, an artificial intelligence and agent of Interplanetary Security (think FBI in space), is given the assignment to pursue and apprehend Rick McCabe, a freighter pilot suspected of illegally smuggling passengers to the free colony of Aranae, some 1300 light years from Earth. Rick, on the other hand, on route to Aranae, was attacked by pirates and separated from his pregnant wife, Sarah, who was captured. But, having come under the suspicion of IPS of illegally transporting passengers, Rick goes rogue and sets off to find Sarah while evading Catherine trying to capture him. Rick and his tech-savvy partner QR follow a trail of clues and tips that lead from one planet to another, from one hostile slave owner and alien race to more pirates and unsavory characters. Along the journey, Catherine learns that being human is more than possessing a flesh and blood body. The transitory body holds an eternal spirit that yearns to be free.
