Fiction Feature: Naked Hustle by Trey Parker #promo #fiction

 

 

Urban Fiction

Published: August 9, 2018

 

 

Broke, homeless, and miserable. Three words that LaToya had become all to familiar with. She never imagined becoming a college drop out, but her worst fears had, sadly, become her reality as she watched her friends graduate and excel in their careers. Ready to end this nightmare, she takes matters into her own hands as an exotic dancer at Dreamville, Atlanta’s biggest entertainment club. One of the veteran dancers quickly takes her under her wing and introduces her to a new, riveting world with friends that aren’t as judgmental as her old crew. In this underground world, she is crowned Queen by a young King. Falling in love with the man of her dreams, making more money than she ever imagined, and being portrayed as a local celebrity had Latoya feeling like she was on top of the world. But the road to the top isn’t always paved in gold. She rubs shoulders with the wrong people, and her attempt to prosper and thrive turns into a prayer to just stay alive.

HEROES LIVE FOREVER

Elinor Hawthorne has inherited a house haunted by two medieval knights, Basil Manneville and Guy Guiscard. Basil is literally the knight of her dreams.

A lifetime later fate does intervene. Basil, still in love with Elinor, is told her spirit lives on in a young woman. He is given another chance at life to find her.

JOURNEY IN TIME

The budding romance between London attorney, Shakira Constantine, and her client, Alex Lancaster is put to the test when the couple finds themselves torn through time back to the medieval world. It’s a world Alex has a strong connection to, a connection that will cost him his life unless they can find a way to return to this time. Without him, Shakira is condemned to live in a dangerous medieval world alone.

Together they’ll struggle to discover a way back to the modern world while dealing with the political and social intrigues of 14th Century England. The intrigues of that world all too often work against their efforts to get home.

KNIGHT BLINDNESS

Stephen Palmer, a wounded medieval knight finds himself torn through time from the battlefield to the modern and alien world.

Seriously injured, he now must make his way in a world he has no context for and no knowledge about.

Esme Crippen is hired as his tutor. Love is something he does understand and as the two fall into love, they both must overcome the fact the world thinks him mad with his time-travel talk, including Esme.

Review

This series has grabbed my heart. The couple's and families' interaction was totally awesome.

Action/adventure? Yes, lots! Romance? Yep, it has that too! 

They had such a feel-good factor that I was absorbed from the start!

 The only downside for me is it's hard to track since there are quite a few characters and they bounce around through time. Having said that, I quite enjoyed all of the books.

Children’s Book 

Date Published: April 6, 2022

 

This is the story of two adventurous bears, their protective mama, mischievous bubbles, and a magical witch.

Granny holds their fate in her gnarled hands . . . will they return to the safety of their cave?

 Alejandria Kate wrote Bubble Trouble with the hope that Boo and Butter’s story shows children that truly loving parents mean only what is best for them . . . that any boundaries, warnings or admonishments are intended to protect, not to prevent them from having fun. Any deviation from the defined boundaries could result in unhappy consequences. Parents like Mama Bear know what is best, safest -- and love them above and beyond anything else.

Memoir Feature: Catch the White Tiger by Tony Assali #promo #giveaway #memoir #nonfiction #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours @PublishingAcorn

 

Autobiography/Memoir

Date Published: April 5, 2022

Publisher: Acorn Publishing

In 1970, at the age of 17 and with only twenty-eight dollars in his pocket, Tony Assali flew to America to escape war in his homeland, Beirut, Lebanon. With the intention of establishing a foothold so that he can bring the rest of his family to safety, Tony must find work quickly. Luckily, Tony possesses a special skill: the ability to perceive white tigers, rare and valuable opportunities other people either do not see or are too afraid to pursue. From humble beginnings working in a doughnut factory, to parlaying his charm into a position selling men’s suits by the thousands, Tony fulfills his promise to his family. Then Tony dares to dream bigger, creating a thriving business that makes him a millionaire. But even with these victories, Tony still hasn’t found the white tiger he’s really looking for—the right partner to make his life complete…until a woman he can’t stop thinking about walks into his life. Complications arise, but she might just be the one, and Tony is never the type of person to let an obstacle stop him.

About the Author

Tony Assali is the president of a well-established escrow company in California and new author of his autobiography, Catch the White Tiger, where he tells his story about growing up in Beirut, establishing life in America, and discovering the keys to success. The debut author has been married for 25 years. He has 4 children, 11 grandchildren, and one great-grandchild. On his time off, he enjoys drinking wine, dirt bike riding, board games, and he is a coffee connoisseur. He is blessed to have the Lord in his life, and he thanks Him daily and pays it forward as a born again Christian.
