Malsum Pass by Kimberly Forrest
After locating some letters her mother had kept hidden from her all her life, Tara Mason journeys to the small town of Malsum Pass, Vermont to find the family she never knew she had and to discover just why her mother had kept this place such a secret.
The town seems idyllic despite the townspeople’s odd habit of staring and… sniffing? And her new neighbor Riley Cooper looks like he could have been conjured from one of Tara’s fantasies, but there is definitely more going on here than meets the eye. Tara is determined to uncover all of the secrets, even if it reveals things she never knew about herself.

PinterestAbout the author:
I’m an independently published paranormal romance author and a stay at home mom. While I’m currently living in Virginia, I was born and raised in Vermont where my Malsum Pass Series is set. I’ve been an avid reader and fan of romance since I picked up my first romance novel at the age of thirteen. How can anyone resist a happily ever after? Not long after that, I began writing stories just for fun. Now I’m living my dream and sharing my stories with the world.
What inspired you to write your book?
The story of Malsum Pass came to me after reading another paranormal romance where the heroine was a descendant of a vampire. While the book was excellent, I kept waiting for her to display some vampire tendencies. When she didn’t, I started to brainstorm… what if something was keeping those traits from showing? The ideas kept building, and building, the story unfolding in my mind until Malsum Pass was born.
Here is a short sample from the book:
“You lost?”
Tara whirled around at hearing that deep voice and lurched awkwardly to the right as her foot slipped out from under her. Well, that was graceful, she thought, at least I didn’t fall on my ass! She had a rueful grin on her face as she looked up at – holy beautiful fantasy man! Her mouth literally fell open and she had to snap it shut. Oh, yes, let’s make even more of a great impression on the man by drooling.
He was tall, probably six foot two or three. His dark brown hair was a bit long on top, thick locks that were tossed a bit from the wind. His dark brows just slightly arched over piercing dark eyes. His nose was straight; his lips were set in a slight frown with the bottom one slightly fuller than the top. Unlike so many of the men she had so far seen in town, including her grandfather, who were sporting full beards, this man had only a scruff of probably two days growth on his strong, angled jaw.
Her eyes worked downward. He had broad shoulders; nicely tanned, well-muscled arms were shown off in a light gray T-shirt, a narrow waist, slim hips and long jean clad legs down to dark work boots.
“Ma’am?” He said, arching a brow.
Right, right, he asked you something. What was it? Think, Tara! “Um, hi.” Oh, that’s just terrific. Now Mr. Gorgeous thinks you’re a complete idiot.
“Are you lost?” He repeated.
“No, I’m Tara.” Oh my God! I did not just say that! Please kill me now!

Amatore’s Restaurant by James Sillwood
It is the end of another successful year for the Recreative Theatre Company and the cast have arranged to meet at Amatore’s Restaurant for their end-of-season dinner.
As the evening progresses, each guest recalls a past sexual liaison. In these recollections we are transported to a variety of locations; the rolling countryside of Brittany to the brown cafés of Amsterdam, from the grandeur of Venice to the slums of Marseilles.
The stories describe various situations: Prudence relates her encounters on a train journey and Colin makes a surprising discovery when he settles down to watch his favourite film. Some characters are driven by self-interest: the sociopath Nicole with her reckless behaviour towards her trusting nephew, and Colette who takes advantage of her unsuspecting tenant.
A common theme unfolds: the hidden truths behind the motives for seduction. As the evening comes to a close, old alliances are re-kindled, new attachments are formed, while others are broken. Frustrations rise to the surface as truths are revealed. For some the evening is a great success, for others a disaster.

Sunspots by Karen S. Bell @KarenSueBell
Sunspots follows the healing journey of a young woman thrown into the horror of losing a spouse. It is a story of loss and redemption and the ghosts that haunt our lives and our houses. A love story, a romance, and a mystery of sorts, Sunspots, is above all an exploration into the psyche and emotional arc of the MC and it follows no formula.
Snapshot:
“One can never be, and should never be, smug about life,” says Aurora Goldberg. An aspiring New York actress who has never realized her dreams, Aurora keeps herself afloat by doing odd temp jobs where her rich fantasy life helps her get through the day. Aurora sees the world through the lens of characters in literature and film and these fictionalizations are woven into her interpretation of reality. On one of her temp assignments she meets Jake Stein, a man who could “charm the skin off a snake” and she decides to follow her destiny as his wife in Austin, Texas. But Jake’s sudden death after two short years disintegrates her world and Aurora must reevaluate her life and let go of a love that has become an obsession.
Sunspots takes the reader on a journey of high emotion as Aurora uncovers Jake’s secret life and her own internal conflicts as she matures to self-awareness. Narrated by Aurora, the novel’s tone vacillates from irreverent humor to solemnity as she relates her previous life with Jake and her present challenges. The title refers to the solar maximum which became the backdrop for Aurora’s conception when her hippy parents went to Canada to observe the Aurora Borealis. In name and in spirit, Aurora is connected to the observable and unobservable energy around us.
With the help of friends, family, and the ghost of Viola Parker (her home’s original owner), Aurora accepts her fate and the secrets revealed about Jake’s true character. She realizes that in this life she will finally break the cycle of pain caused by her love for this man, Jake Stein, through the centuries.
Embedded in the novel is the question of the afterlife and paranormal events abound. The incidents are left vague enough so the reader is not certain if they are external events witnessed by Aurora or exist only in her own mind. My approach to the extraordinary has always been with keen interest and skepticism. Just as we cannot see unaided that at the quantum level solid objects consist of vast spaces and swirling particles, so too, we define our human existence with only our limited five senses, three dimensional orientation, and our perceived space/time continuum. So then, what can one say with any certainty is reality?
