After The Game, by Norman Chastain
Early on a September morning, a Cabernet bottle slips through Margaret Gordon's fingers and shatters on the floor of her Tampa home. She giggles. Red wine on linoleum is no laughing matter. Her lover displays his brutal intolerance for imperfection and beats her to death, bathes his latest victim, and cleans her house until it sparkles.
Days later, Charlotte Gordon discovers her sibling was last seen in a seedy St. Petersburg bar with the Braves' hotheaded relief pitcher, Torch Traynor. When the police dismiss her amateur allegations, Charlotte becomes as obsessed with her sister's bizarre murder as the killer is with perfection. She abandons a lucrative career and poses as a freelance journalist to hunt the killer loose within the Atlanta Braves organization.
The relentless female protagonist pursues the manipulative murderer through a dark side of baseball. A gruff ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION reporter helps Charlotte piece together the dreadful trail to a jet-setting neat-freak serial killer, suffering from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder. He preys on newfound lovers and one-night stands to calm enraged bouts of anxiety brought on by flawed performances on the field that fall below his rigid expectations.
Has Charlotte's obsession blinded her judgment? Charlotte is mugged on a dark Atlanta street, run off a desolate Georgia highway, and narrowly evades death as a SWAT sniper takes down a deranged gunman. After a deceptive sigh of relief, will Charlotte see the startling truth before it's too late?

Daydreams, Moonbeams, by Louisa Middleton-Blake
They say that there are always two sides to every story; this one is no exception. The events you are about to read are based on a true story relating to one particular magpie who almost turned into a couple of crows’ takeaway meal. His luck changed when Louisa arrived on the scene in the nick of time and rescued him from the vicious beaks of the crows. She took him home, not expecting him to live, and nursed him back to health. Having survived his ordeal, the magpie was given the name of Maggie. Whilst Louisa basks in flashbacks of childhood memories during the 1950s and ’60s, her co-author cavorts in and out of fantasies, fairy stories and legends like there’s no tomorrow. After moving from the South of England to West Wales, the magpie’s tale was hatched, and by mutual agreement between Louisa and Maggie, the two versions were written.

Little did Retishella know, she was about to embark on a journey that would take her to the brink of death in her bid to find the only creature that could save her—the Dolphin King.
Wall of Color ,by Jeanette Cooper
Born into a family of wealth, stunning Rosemarie Delrio should have wanted for nothing, yet judged as a misfit and an outcast by the society from whom she craves acceptance, she is the epitome of loneliness and need.
Neither white nor Negro, but a mixture of both, white Americans identify Rosemarie with her darker kin. Biracial, with café-au-lait skin earning names such as high yeller, nigger, and half-breed, not even the early lessons learned from discrimination and racial slurs can toughen the sensitivity to living a life of rejection. Born as the offspring of two ethnic groups, she belongs to neither and suffers rejection by both.
Only when she meets the powerful, masculine, and charming figure of Beau Broussard, who fills a lifetime void with his love, can she come to understand her world need not be defined by the color of her skin.
A Woman's Injustice, by Natasha Noel

Justice’s fear of losing Desiree transforms into abuse, and she is forced to make a decision whether or not to keep the baby.
Her life becomes filled with lies and unimaginable drama. The only people she can depend on are her three friends: Yvette (the promiscuous one), Stacey (the short-tempered one), and Erica (the voice of reason).
This is an urban tale of betrayal against the heart. You will become entangled in the twist and turns of Desiree's endeavors and will both laugh and cry. Can Desiree triumph, or will she be a victim of A Woman’s InJustice?
