Rhapsody (Heart of Heroes - Book 4) by Molly J. Bragg is now available.

Megan Harwood never wanted to be a hero. She just wanted to indulge the two great loves of her life, woodworking and music, and for the last few years, she’s done just that running a small guitar making business in Sun City Florida with her dad’s help. But when Megan refuses to sell her shop, she ends up on the hit list of the Unitarium, an organized crime syndicate made of up supervillains and their minions.
After being grabbed off the street and used as a test subject in one of their experiments, Megan begins hearing a woman’s voice in her head. A voice that turns out to be Eurion, the beautiful woman Megan has had a crush on for the past year. A woman who also claims to be an ancient red dragon. With Eurion’s guidance, Megan is able to escape from the Unitarium’s clutches, and in the process, she discovers that they have infiltrated the Department of Metahuman Affairs.
Before Megan can decide who to trust, she finds herself framed for Eurion’s murder, putting her squarely in the crosshairs of some of the world’s most powerful Superheroes. Frightened, alone, with only the voice in her head for guidance, Megan has to find a way to rescue Eurion and clear her name, before Eurion’s friends hunt her down.

Love on the Line by Toni Draper is now available at all the usual booksellers.

Teresa Salazar grew up on the Rio Grande and has known what she wanted to be since she was a young girl. A Border Patrol Agent just like her father.
Almost two-thousand miles to the north of Texas, Jordyn Jenkins watched friends of hers be taken away by I.C.E. Agents for committing the crime of seeking a better life. She vowed then to fight for the rights of immigrants by becoming a Social Worker.
When the two cross paths as college students and fall hard for one another, they soon find their opposing ideologies create a divide that tears them apart. It’s one that cannot be bridged, no matter how much their hearts would like.
Eventually, time and experience cause them to step back from the extremes of their beliefs and see the reality as more than black-and-white. But before they can find a common ground where they can meet in the middle, they must first reconcile their own hearts and minds.
