Can an Alaskan firestorm lead to true love under a midnight sun?

 

Alaskan firefighter Raynie Atwood thinks she know what she wants—until a walking encyclopedia disguised as a hotshot firefighter storms into her life. Grieving loss and betrayal by the man she once loved, Raynie sets her sights on a top command post for wildland fire. But when when an extended drought, high heat, and beetle-killed forests add up to the perfect firestorm, Raynie’s leadership is put to the test.

To add fuel to the fire, Cohen Tremblay tests Raynie at every turn as she works to save sled dogs and Iditarod mushers dog kennels in the deadly Alaskan conflagration…and to make matters worse, a deadly threat from Raynie’s past has her fearing for her life.

When Raynie’s world goes up in flames, Cohen may be the only one Raynie can rely on…hard to do when she no longer trusts any man, let alone a bullish co-worker. Instead, she constructs a rock-solid containment line around her heart. But fire is unpredictable, and so is love. Will their chance for love be snuffed before it ignites?

 

Romance, fire, and betrayal…another deadly mix!

“Smart, riveting and next gen.” (Pamela Wirth, CEO and author of Saving My Son)

"...a provocative science fiction novel featuring the union of two unrivaled, intelligent technologies." (Foreword-Clarion Reviews)

 

Dr. Keira Stetson has two passions: ethical artificial intelligence—AI with a conscience—and creating technology that improves children’s lives. Trapped in an earthquake-flattened building with a half-dozen panicked five-year-olds, she fears the worst. When billionaire Roy Brandt leverages his mysterious nanite technology to rescue them, she’s both grateful and intrigued.

Impressed by his prototype technology but alarmed at its potential for exploitation, Keira merges her company with Brandt’s. The merger gives Keira access to much-needed funds for the development of her own tech, and access to Brandt’s powerful minuscule robots. In turn, she and her AI assistant, Elly, embed Keira’s trademark Moral Operating System in Brandt’s nanite SmartDust to rein in its power.

But Brandt’s technology has been kept secret for a reason. Though he’s adamant about using the Dust to improve life, not destroy it, corporate raiders and the military have other ideas. They want to weaponize Brandt’s nanites. Suddenly, everything Keira has worked for is in jeopardy. Exposed to the worst humanity has to offer, she and Elly must fight to use this newfound tech for good and keep it out of the wrong hands…before it’s too late.

 

All proceeds from sales of Moral Code will go to PreventChildAbuse.org and Thorn.org.




Review
The chronicle of a world not unlike our own, yet a frightening glimpse into what could be. What if’s abound in this story.
This book is a rollercoaster that only goes up, I couldn’t stop turning the pages and most important it was THRILLING.
Vivid and written in a very descriptive way that really allows the reader to imagine the world in their head while listening to the narration. 
I think the audiobook is well done. I liked the pacing and the voice.

In this sparkling early Victorian romance by USA Today bestselling Sydney Jane Baily, a reticent musician gets caught in the web of the one-of-a-kind diamond daughter.


She’s open-hearted and guileless, but he’s been fooled before. Twice!

Brilliance Diamond is one of a kind amongst her siblings. Unpredictable, some might say feather-brained, but always with the best intentions. Alas, when she says aloud things that others only dare think, she ends up in the suds time and again—until an impulsive act leads her directly into the arms of her prince charming.

Lord Vincent Hewitt, parliamentarian and pianist, seems to have an unerring ability to put his trust in the wrong person. When he meets a sweet lady who is both honest and candid, his battered spirit starts to heal. After all, she would never consider deceiving him. Would she?

Determined to help the reticent musician, Brilliance unwittingly sets off a chain of events leading to betrayal and lies… and her own devastating heartbreak. Will the treachery in Vincent’s past destroy any chance for their sparkling happily-ever-after?

Book Tour & Book Review: My Name is Light by Kelly Anne Manuel #blogtour #bookreview #childrensbook #giveaway #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours


 

My Name Is Series

 

Children's Book

Date Published: 07/25/2022

Publisher: Balboa Press, a division of Hay House, Inc.


photo add-to-goodreads-button_zpsc7b3c634.png  

 

"My Name Is Light" is the newly minted Book Two of Kelly Anne Manuel's "My Name Is" Series.

In this story the Child is invited on a journey into Nature where a discovery is made with the help of the Animal Kingdom and a joyful celebration result. The Child is curious and Nature, as in real life, does not disappoint.

"My Name Is Light" begins with a Child in the great outdoors who notices something bright in their vision. The Child takes the opportunity to interact with a feeling of "light." The Animal Kingdom animates this exciting, fun, and playful adventure. The Child will learn to ask questions and see what fun adventures await when they engage actively in communication. The simple words take on new meaning as the illustrations pair perfectly with their presentation.

The Child will learn that Nature has so many wonders to explore. These wonders are available and ready for action once the Child actively engages with communication that relates directly to their own observations. Children will experience a lighthearted and fun story that will ignite their own imaginations.

Why not explore the author's theory Childhood is a time of playful fascination as well as learning? This fascination can be enhanced by literature that allows for pretend conversations. It is in Early Childhood that we learn how to connect and interact with others.

"My Name Is Light" offers a path to these connections that allows for observation, self-reflection, and play. Play is so important at this age and the Child who reads these books will be rewarded with the joy of witnessing play at its best.



Review
Great story for kids. The author dives into the sea of imagination for kids.
The themes are relatable. It's not cookie-cutter cute, it's real, in a great way. 
A tender story of animal love will appeal to a wide audience.

Book Tour & Book Review: Vices / Virtues by Beatrice DeSoprontu #blogtour #bookreview #womensfiction #rabtbooktours @RABTBookTours @desoprontu

 

Women's Fiction

Date Published: July 14, 2019

"Simultaneously compelling, intriguing, and effortlessly entertaining read. De Soprontu imparts views on themes of poverty, race, identity, strength, and deliverance, all tightly bound within this intricate psychological opera." KIRKUS REVIEWS

"VICES/VIRTUES is a beautifully written, strikingly moving, look at the interacting lives and diverse backgrounds of women in an unconventional profession" Indie Reader

 

Cristela had a childhood shrouded in secrets. Ashamed of their circumstances, her mother told lies and encouraged her daughter to do the same. As Cristela grew, she unraveled the lies, but found that deception is a hard habit to break. Now, as an adult, Cristela creates a secret alter ego as the dominatrix Mistress Clara.

By day, Cristela is a good-girl poster child. By night, Mistress Clara masters the hidden erotic realm of an S&M dungeon. With her knack for duplicity things should work smoothly except for one complication – friendship. The quirky array of fellow dominatrices at the dungeon are nothing like the stereotypes she expected. Divided between her affection for the girls at the dungeon and her desire to keep her fetish activities secret, Cristela fears her two worlds are colliding. Can Cristela break her history of deceit? In a world of vices and virtues, salvation isn’t something you find, it’s a path you make.




Review

This book kept me gripped from the first chapter. It was so different than what I expected, in the best way. 

Great writing that is just so engrossing. Characters that really call to the reader, we feel for them as we try to understand them, their lives, and their motives. 

It's deeper than you would expect. So many important life issues are discussed, we are brought into the situations with these characters and we feel right along with them.
