February Noteworthy Events:
__________________________________________________

February 3, Stuart R. West celebrates the release of a dark cat and mouse thriller with a very unhealthy stream of black comedy running through its veins. Serial killers have never been so much fun. 


Leon Garber has his reasons for ridding the world of abusive people, call it justifiable homicide.

Opportunity comes knocking from Like-Minded Individuals, Inc., a global company fulfilling the needs of people like Leon. LMI’s clientele are provided with new identities, security, and even lists of potential “projects.” But let’s not call it “serial killing.” Such a nasty business. For Leon, it’s a dream come true.

However, LMI’s put a target on Leon’s back. He has no idea why.

LMI, the police, sanctioned hitmen, and a vicious psychopath are after him. He collides with other Like-Minded Individuals: The Good Samaritan Killer, The Mad Doctor, Donnie and Marie (don’t ask). Heads are chopped, dropped and swapped as Leon fights for his life. But nothing will keep Leon from finishing his current project. Nothing. Not even the chance to fall in love with the woman of his dreams.

Sometimes a killer business idea is just that. Killer.

THE SECRET SOCIETY OF LIKE MINDED INDIVIDUALS is also available for pre-order.

February 9 - 13 THE CLOCK STRIKES MIDNIGHT by Joan C. Curtis, virtual book tour with Giveaway. 


The blog tour with reviews will be hosted by Book Enthusiasts. There will be different links each day of the tour. Visit frequently and win a free copy of The Clock Strikes Midnight.

The Clock Strikes Midnight is a race against time in a quest for revenge and atonement. This is a story about hate, love, betrayal and forgiveness.

If you found out you had only 3 months to live, what would you do? That’s the question Janie Knox faces in this fast-paced mystery full of uncertainty and tension that will surprise you until the very last page.

Hiding behind the façade of a normal life, Janie keeps her family secrets tucked inside a broken heart. Everything changes on the day she learns she’s going to die. With the clock ticking and her time running out, she rushes to finish what she couldn’t do when she was 17—destroy her mother’s killer. But she can’t do it alone.

Janie returns to her childhood home to elicit help from her sister. She faces more than she bargained for when she discovers her sister’s life in shambles. Meanwhile her mother’s convicted killer, her stepfather, recently released from prison, blackmails the sisters and plots to extract millions from the state in retribution. New revelations challenge Janie’s resolve, but she refuses to allow either time or her enemies to her stop her from uncovering the truth she’s held captive for over 20 years.

Tour starts on February 9th at Undercover Book Reviews and KC Stewart's blog.

February 15 - 28 Cover reveal of SUPER BAD: Super Villain Academy Bk 3 by Kai Strand.

Dozens of bloggers will be helping Ms. Strand celebrate the upcoming release of SUPER BAD the final book in her Super Villain Academy series. There will be prizes!



The world is in chaos. Violence and thievery reign. And with the supers still balanced, it’s only getting worse. Without good versus evil, the supers care less and less. In order to restore purpose, the world needs its super heroes and its super villains, but the one who balanced them in the first place is missing.

Sandra’s concern over finding her brother, Jeff, isn’t her only problem. Her pathetic excuse for super powers has left her needing a new ankle. And though she’s still very much committed to her boyfriend, Source, she’s growing unreasonably attracted to Set, the boy who double crossed Jeff by stealing his girlfriend.

When Sandra is taken and held as bait by some kids who want to unbalance the super world, it becomes the inciting event that changes things for supers everywhere and forces them to answer the question, “Hero or villain?”

Blast starts on Eric Price's blog on February 15th.

Coming in April: FINDING THOR, a young adult romantic suspense by Kai Strand

Cara Cassidy always envisioned love to be Thor, slamming his hammer into the earth, and it resonating within her for a lifetime. She never expected it would be a thousand tiny actions from a normal boy. When international intrigue hits small town America, more than the car chases get your blood pumping.

You can add it to your to-read shelf on Goodreads and join Kai's mailing list to receive notification of release.
