Here's the blurb...

Born in 1749 in the mountains of Gevaudan, the last of a long lineage of witches, Eve is an almost ordinary peasant girl, except for the fact her birth name was Paul. Growing up in a land of magic and mystery with the love of her mother, she must then as an adult face the scorn of a society that does not accept her, nor any woman seeking independence. Accused of witchcraft, she finds refuge with the mysterious count Nicolas who has been terrorizing the villagers as the ‘Beast of Gevaudan’ for years, and whose love for her is laced with cruelty. But that is only the beginning for Eve, who soon finds herself propelled into eternity as she awakens as a vampire with unique abilities.

Courtesan, herbalist, feminist, author and public speaker, over a hundred years later Eve is an accomplished, independent, but lonely woman, who struggles to find her place even among others like herself, and has long given up her naïve romantic dreams. And when her friend Emily invites a handsome stranger named Stanley to join her transgender circle, little does she know that he was the Englishman who broke Eve’s heart and came to France to make things right. But as Stanley struggles to tell her the truth and prevent her from making a pact with a demon, a new antagonist who can insinuate himself into people’s minds appears, and Eve is not the only target.

In this second volume of the TransCrypted series, Stanley and Eve must find their way through a maze of illusions, but magic is always at work in dark fairy tales, and good or evil may not be as simple as angelic or demonic...

Get your copy of this amazing collection of true stories from the link in our profile now!

As the title of this book suggests, this book is filled with the thoughts, confessions, and secrets of the LGBTQ+ community.

Following the booming success of the confessionals segment on ‘Chester Pridecast’ podcast, where the hosts read out submissions the listeners send in, and offer advice and thoughts, the community was asked to send in their stories with the proviso that their entries be completely true.

Why, I hear you ask would anyone give honest secrets or confess their stories to a complete strange?

People often hold onto these stories and bury them away, let their thoughts and feelings go unheard. This has been an opportunity for those brave people to let go, and to share to the world anonymously.

Wes Diggory has written a few of the entries himself, and whilst editing the rest, he has been lucky enough to get to know these people and their stories. They share embarrassing/funny moments, heart ache, betrayal, advice, calling out to people, calling people out, lost loves, coming out and much more.

All of the author's royalties from this book will be donated directly to Chester Pride, (Charity number: 1161379) where a dedicated team of local volunteers work tirelessly all year, not only to organise an annual pride event, but also to support the local LGBTQ+ and wider community. This includes but is not limited to social projects, educational work, campaigning to protect LGBTQ+ legal rights and of course bringing a bad ass pride event to the city of Chester.

Here's the blurb:

During a couple’s dinner party, ‘stuck-up’ Sandy is being particularly difficult. He’s embarrassed everyone around the table in front of the whole restaurant. TV obsessed Chris has had enough, and challenges Sandy to a ‘Come Dine With Me’ style competition, if he’s so adamant he could do better. Pushing his luck, Chris also suggests that all four couples swap partners for the week too, just to really make the week really interesting.

Token woman and staunch feminist Faye will enjoy the break from layabout Chris, who’s so laid back he’s practically vertical. Actor Sam doesn’t mind a few days away from new boyfriend. After all, Ben could do with spending a little more time getting to know the group. Best-friend Husbands and business partners Patrick and Stewart will at least get to see each other each day at work. And without over-the-top Sandy for a week, career-driven Anton will have time for a few of his extra-curricular activities.

With miss-matched couples and the pressures of entertaining each night, what could possibly go wrong?

Here's the blurb...

After two decades of togetherness, Julia's world shatters when her wife, Marin, leaves her without a word. Left with only fractured memories and a love story with missing pieces, Julia is trapped in a hollow existence, clinging to the hope of Marin's return. It's not until an electrifying moment with a mysterious woman in a bar that a glimmer of Julia's old self rekindles.

When Kleinton High hires an outside company to evaluate her school, Julia never expects it to be Erin, the woman she almost took home the night before. With their undeniable connection between them–a familiarness in Erin’s touch, a magnetic pull neither can ignore–Julia is compelled to face her past.

Can she rediscover the hope she thought was lost forever, or will the hollowness of Marin’s absence overtake her completely? Will Erin be the exact home she always deserved, or will the past creep back in? Hope and Other Lost Things is an exploration of love and rediscovery in the face of heartbreak. Julia’s story is a tribute to the humanistic anguish we harbor inside ourselves, and how a little bit of hope can hold us together on the journey to where we need to be.

How Can We Be Wrong by is available from today in eBook and paperback formats.

Here's the blurb...

Max is a gay nurse. This gut-wrenching story describes his experiences of being prescribed an almost lethal mixture of bullying, bigotry and rejection from the very nursing community he represents today. Sadly, being a nurse does not come with an invisible shield. This story is a personal account of the good, the bad, and the dam right ugly of NHS staff.

There is truthfulness, humour, and lessons for us all. And yet the underbelly of stigma is not watered down; it is there without sentimentality. This story parallels the social, political, and personal impact of ‘coming out’ within the early 1990s. It describes Max’s experiences of working within the health service following the aftermath of Section 28 and the HIV/Aids era.

The story shows that everyone in their way can overcome the badness that life throws at them. Where there is adversity, there can be hope. Where there is desperation, there can be strength. Where there is pain, there can be healing.  Max’s thirty-year story hopes to give a voice to the silenced. In his mission to ‘walk the walk’ of inclusion, he offers a taste of his husband and his experiences of adopting two children.

If you've not yet read it, click the link in our profile now to get your eBook or paperback copy, or read free on Kindle Unlimited!

Here's the blurb...

In October 1992, Dr. Ellen Haskell begins a new therapy practice in Princeton after a tragic error with a former client.

Demoralized by her failure, Ellen strives to restore her emotional and professional confidence. Her parents have departed for Greece, leaving Ellen alone in their secluded country house. As her clients are introduced through their individual sessions, Ellen becomes unnerved when she receives hang-up phone calls and a series of bizarre gifts from an anonymous admirer—first at her office and then at home. As the obsessive lover increasingly invades her life, Ellen's anxiety crescendos and she begins to fear the stalker's behavior will escalate into violence.

The Psychologist's Shadow is a simmering literary suspense and a portrait of a compassionate, introspective therapist who finds herself in a dangerous struggle. As tension accumulates, the reader gains insights during sessions and through the stalker's journal entries, which serve as discordant counterpoints. Who is the shadow lover? An acquaintance, a shopkeeper, an old boyfriend, or a client?
