The Art and Science of Dealing with Narcissistic People and Relationshipsby Richard Banks

If you are in a relationship that seems to be suffocating you and you are no longer happy and want to come out of it, keep reading…

If you do a quick online search of toxic or narcissistic persons, the overwhelming advice you’ll find is to cut these people out of your life. But that’s easier said than done, especially if these people are family, colleagues, or other people with whom we live or work closely.

We’ve all been around those people who can leave us feeling drained or a bit ‘off’ after an encounter with them. Some people can leave us feeling agitated or annoyed or even just feeling really bad about ourselves. The most important thing you need to understand when dealing with someone like this is – Their behavior towards you has nothing to do with you, and more often reflects what they are going through or have gone through personally. Identifying their harmful behavior is the first step to minimizing their impact. You might not be able to change what they do, but you can change what you do with it.

Nevermoreby Kathryn Le Veque

Welcome to a Gothic Medieval Romance novella sure to thrill and chill!

An abbey rooted in local legend.
A nun fearful for her life.
And a Mother Abbess who rules by Satan’s right hand.

Can Atreus de Norville save the woman he loves from the clutches of evil?

Mariana de Allerston was committed to the cloister of Whitby Abbey by her father who deemed her incorrigible for a tryst with a stable servant. For a noble family, that was a deeply shameful thing. They trusted that the nuns of Whitby would cure their daughter’s craving for unworthy flesh. But what Mariana’s father didn’t realize was that Whitby Abbey was under the control of a demon.

The Mother Abbess, formerly known as Gunilda Dunsley.

Enter Atreus de Norville. From the powerful de Norville family of Northwood Castle, a chance encounter with the lovely and fragile Mariana proved to be love at first sight for Atreus. Two years of wooing the postulate under the nose of the Mother Abbess has brought them to this point. On this very night, they intended to run away together and be married.

But the Mother Abbess knows of the plans.

Death awaits Mariana, though she does not know it yet. When she does not show up at the appointed place and time to meet Atreus, it is up to Atreus to locate – and save – Mariana before the Mother Abbess buries yet one more young woman alive, covering years of failure, evil, and greed.

Will Atreus be in time?

The Determined Mistressby Emily E K Murdoch

Micah de Petras finds solace in one place: the arms of his mistress.

That should be mistresses – after all, why limit yourself to one? Micah never saw the point in settling for anything less, considering it’s his sister and not himself who is the de Petras heir.

Babysitting his sister? Holding an actual baby? Isn’t there some sort of gambling den he can lose himself in?

Scorned by the other gentleman of Society and frustrated with the constant irritations of his family, Micah returns again and again to the only woman who wants nothing more from him than his weekly allowance. The trouble is, Catherine Tetlow has had enough.

Enough of being Micah’s Thursday evening; enough of making love then waking up alone; enough of being treated merely like a mistress by the turbulent handsome gentleman. She has a plan, and Catherine is determined to win not just the body, but the heart of Micah de Petras.

If only she did not have so much to lose with secrets of her own…

When a gentleman vows never to lose his heart and his favorite mistress challenges him to do just that, sparks will fly and hearts will be bruised as a couple who are certainly not a couple are both determined not to have their way – no matter the cost?

This full length novel is a steamy Regency romance with a happily ever after, no cliffhangers, and is part of a series that can be read in any order, but is best enjoyed in sequence.

A Medieval Gothic tale sure to satisfy your craving for spooks and ghouls and all things frightening!

A castle layered with secrets…

A family living a curse…

Will a knight in shining armor be enough to save them?

Castle Draygon is a castle with more than one mystery. When Hermes de Norville rides into the village at the base of the castle, little does he know how his life is going to change. A chance meeting with a woman the villagers call the Angel of Death changes his stars.

And so begins a complex and dark tale.

Castle Draygon is rife with curses and legends, so Hermes discovers. But above the whispers and rumors hovers an evil over the castle that controls its occupants. Hermes can’t help his attraction Catrine de la Pare, the woman known to the villagers as the Angel of Death, but Catrine’s story is as complex as the legends behind Castle Draygon itself. Reeling from the loss of his wife and riddled with grief, Hermes finds purpose when it comes to Catrine. She doesn’t deserve the reputation she’s been given by superstitious villagers and it’s up to Hermes to save Catrine and her brother, a man known as The Dragon, from the evil that hangs over Castle Draygon.

Can Hermes break the curse? Or will the evil in the tower overtake him, too?

Join Hermes and Catrine in a romantic Gothic Medieval tale.

A Forgotten Fallby Nadine Millard

All she’s ever wanted is freedom, challenge, and adventure. But the longer she spends with the wounded soldier from her past the more she realizes she might just want him.

Francesca Templeworth has never met a man that didn’t somehow disappoint her. While other girls her age dreamed of love and romance and marriage, she wanted adventure and challenges and freedom.

No man has ever held her interest. No man but Adam Fairchild, who’d gone off to war and had never come back.

Adam Fairchild has spent years running from the demons he encountered on the battlefield of war, from a past that he no longer remembers, and a present reality that feels too heavy a burden to carry. Returning to Halton he hopes to find a safe haven. What he finds instead is Francesca Templeworth, a pretty girl with a sharp wit who’s turned into a beautiful woman with a smart mouth.

All Adam wants is to hide himself away, miserable in the darkness. But he didn’t count on the most stubborn woman in all of Christendom insisting on dragging him back into the light.

Francesca can’t fight her attraction to Adam any more than Adam can fight is own to her. But until he learns to let go of the past, what hope do they have of a future together?

Adam is the one man she’s never forgotten. But the question is, will he let himself fall?
