He was the last man I should love … but the first I ever could.

Ethan Frost was a visionary.  A genius. Every woman’s deepest, darkest fantasy—even mine.  And, somehow, I was his.

He stole into my life like a dream.  Turned my reality upside down and made my every desire come true—especially those I never knew I had.   He demanded everything I had to give.  Gave me everything of himself in return. 

But dreams don’t last forever, and ours was no exception.  Because my nightmares were darker, and my wounds deeper, than I could ever reveal.  And much as Ethan wanted to protect me, the secrets we didn’t know we shared could only tear us apart.  

Tracy Wolff lives in Texas and teaches writing at her local community college. She is married and the mother of three young sons.

Book Review ~ Incendiary by Chris Redding

Incendiary is a novel that covers a lot of aspects. Friendship, love, heartache, anger, betrayal and many more. I enjoyed every chapter. Well done. – Ara of My Book and My Coffee

Incendiary is a story that revolves around Chelsea and Jake. These two obviously have history. It didn’t “end” well for them before but you know what they say about “meant to be”, right? If it is meant to happen, it will surely happen no matter when or what. Although I am talking about a possible love story here, Incendiary evidently has more to give. These two actually have a common enemy although they didn't know who (not until later). Suspicions are there but no evidence... YET. I will talk about that enemy in a little bit. For now, let’s talk some more about the characters. 

Chelsea James. She’s one of the main characters in this book. Personally, I like strong-willed woman characters and that’s why it was not a surprise when I instantly liked Chelsea. She’s not just a member of the First Aid Squad …she’s the captain! Kick ass! :) She’s easily an inspiration to readers, especially to female readers. 

Jake Campbell. He’s the new Fire Inspector in town. But he’s not really new in Biggin Hill. He’s the boy who left ten years ago due to a certain reason (you’ll find out once you read the book). He’s also Chelsea’s love interest. Well, as I’ve mentioned, they have history and since he left a decade ago, Chelsea has moved on. But we will see… :) Anyway, his timing (coming back to this town) is rather impeccable. It’s the right time. Chelsea will surely need him. I certainly like his character as he’s like the knight-in-shining-armor we all want to have sometimes. 

Brad James. He’s Chelsea’s brother and the Fire Department captain. Surely, there were sibling issues and I think it’s really normal. But even though there were issues between them, Brad really cared for Chelsea. 

Now, let’s talk about the enemy. This enemy has some serious issues and thinks that he ought to spread them with other people. His actions were evil and annoying. He put lives in danger – and I mean, seriously. Rather annoying. As you can see, I hated this character. As an antagonist, this person was very effective. High praise for the author on that one. 

The other characters included in the story were really colorful. They were certainly needed for the story to make sense. 

As mentioned, I enjoyed every chapter of this book. It's so good to enter the world of EMTs, firefighters, etc. I thank the author for this wonderful experience. How the story ended was expected – and that’s not a bad thing. I wouldn’t want it to end any other way. Perfectly satisfying.

We are Lorraine Campbell and Pam Burks, two (of four) sisters separated by the Atlantic Ocean and now connected as xco-authors of Ellie Campbell, an excuse for endless phone conversations and countless daily emails.  Our novels How To Survive Your Sisters and When Good Friends Go Bad, published by Arrow (UK) and available world-wide, were recently launched by Amazon in the USA, along with our latest, Looking For La La (which just reached #1 in Kindle Free Top 100 bestsellers.)  We are equally passionate about writing, travel, horses, dogs, and the great outdoors.  Originally from Scotland, Pam now lives in Reigate, not far from London, with fitness-obsessed husband, three grown children and a Norfolk Terrier, while Lorraine is on a 10 acre Colorado ranch near wild and wonderful Boulder with her amazingly-tolerant spouse, three white horses, five cats, one black fuzzy whoodle dog and ten chickens.  We both believe in enjoying life to the fullest, be it digging up carrots in the allotment, listening to audio books while scooping manure in the corrals, or going on a trail ride in the beautiful Rocky Mountains.   And we’re utterly convinced all our problems can be solved by a glass of wine, a bar of chocolate and a good laugh with friends.

Edward Lorn is an American horror author presently residing in the southeast United States. He enjoys storytelling, reading, and writing biographies in the third person.
Once upon a time, during a session of show and tell, a seven-year-old Edward Lorn shared with his class that his baby brother had died over the weekend. His classmates, the teacher included, wept while he recounted the painful tragedy of having lost a sibling. Edward went home that day and found an irate mother waiting for him. Edward's teacher had called to express her condolences. This was unfortunate, as Edward had never had a baby brother.

With advice given to her by a frustrated teacher, Edward's mother made him start writing all of his lies down. The rest, as they say, is history.

Edward Lorn and his wife are raising two children, along with a handful of outside cats and a beagle named Dot. He remains a liar to this day. The only difference is, now he's a useful one.
