Monster Romance Feature: Spooning My Chuchunya by Marilyn Barr #promo #releaseday #giveaway #monsterromance #romance #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours @author_barr

Snuggling Under Snowdrifts,  Book 2

Monster Romance

Date Published: 8/8/2023

 

 

I found the most elusive spot to hide from my parent’s cult but in claiming my cave, I accidentally allowed a snow monster to claim me…

 

Dr. Sydney Decker

Six months ago, Dr. Vera Thompson disappeared into the wilderness to settle with a mysterious “survivalist colony” without a known location. She may have bought their lies, but I was born into an isolated group of religious fanatics and can’t believe Vera would fall into the same trap. Her weak “find my phone app” signal is the lifeline between us, and I won’t stop searching the frigid tundra for her. My best friend helped me escape but now, it’s my turn to save her.

 

Sergei

Loneliness threatens my sanity with each rejection at the annual mating chase. Females fear my hot temper and need for control, instead of appreciating that I am the biggest and fiercest male chuchunya. I had lost hope I would discover my dushevnayasvyaz or soulmate, but then she found us. This season I find myself breaking the ancient rules and deliberately damaging the rituals I hold dear…at her request. I meant what I said when I promised to rearrange the world to make my dushevnayasvyaz happy, but when will I be pushed too far?

Caught between the regimented conditioning of the clan and the willful spirit of his dushevnayasvyaz, Sergei must choose the order which keeps him stable or his chance at fated love. Will they escape punishment for their deeds or face shunning in a desolate place where community means survival? Will Sydney recognize he’s betraying his kin to win her heart or ignore their bond in fear of losing her independence?

Self-Help Feature: Papercuts by Brent Perkins #promo #selfhelp #nonfiction #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours

Self-Help

Date Published: July 20, 2023

 

 

This is an epic love story.

Or really, it’s a story about who we don’t love, why we don’t love them, and the damage it has caused in our lives. It unravels the seams and exposes the innards of what we are too afraid to look at.

Ourselves.

Papercuts: The Art of Self-Delusion, opens the door to the depths of what free will actually is. The agency we each have over how we interpret life’s experiences and the stories we end up telling ourselves. This is a wake-up call. A prayer. A humble request to embrace choice and unlock the innate ability we each possess to create our experiences and craft our journeys. We are the artists of our lives and we are so powerful!

 

-----------------------

 

Papercuts' casual yet intimate style, woven together with deep vulnerability through storytelling, gives permission for us to explore and be curious with ourselves while challenging us to wake up and start showing up to life.

About the Author

I am a father of two amazing daughters and a lover of life, nature, and community - it was in my mid 30’s that I began a journey to unravel the pain and trauma surrounding the lack of love and trust I never had for myself.

I spent the first half of my life building a career around achievement, reaching C-Suite status, traveling the world, speaking, launching new technologies, and building businesses. After a 7 year journey that led through some dark places, plant medicine ceremonies, and eye-opening realizations, it became evident that nothing external was ever going to fill the void. As the reality of divorce after 18 years of marriage sunk in, I began to see the grind for what it truly was, bringing clarity to what really matters in life.

Beginning with a divine 'tap on the shoulder', I stepped out of corporate America in December of 2022, put everything else on hold, and wrote my first book, Papercuts. Through this journey, I found a novel way to relate to the ego (the small “self” in each of us) and shine a spotlight on where it prevents us from stepping into our agency and owning the true depth of our choice.
