(Book Three in the Wolf Boy Series)

Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Romance
Publisher: moonRox, Inc.
Buy Links:  Amazon  moonRox    


Blurb:  
Cody Forester is a sixteen-year-old werewolf. He only found out six months ago and already he is showing powers that Uncle Bob, his mentor, cannot match. His closest friends begin to think he is dangerous. Even Brittany, the girl he loves, says he is scary.

Cody learns to keep his new abilities under wraps. Until another super-werewolf comes to South Florida. Vilk Bodark owns Georgia. He has a hand in a variety of illegal ventures: loan sharking, money laundering, gambling. He has police chiefs, judges, and even sorcerers in his employ.

Bodark conscripts werewolves by force—join or die and he plans to expand his operations to Florida—and he decides Brittany, a fledgling witch, would make a fine addition to his staff. Cody can’t defeat Bodark in a straight-up fight. He must take his new powers in a different direction—in ways that scare even him. If he doesn’t succeed, Brittany will be lost forever.

Will his hidden superpowers be enough to save her?

Wolfsbane Brew is book three in the Wolf Boy Series, but don't let that stop you. Each book stands alone and can be enjoyed individually.

Tuesday's Titles - Paying It Forward

A philosophy I've always liked is to pay it forward. To work toward that goal, besides sharing tips and my experience as a writer, author, and editor, I've decided to start a new column. Tuesday's Titles will focus on new releases and almost new releases in a variety of genres. Some of the books I've read and/or reviewed, others I've shared a forum with their author. And some of the books and their creators are unknown but recommended by someone.

The posts may not always be on a Tuesday, but the hope is that the books will set off your week.

It started off with Refuge by Judy Gill, and In Time by Constance Walker.

Welcome to Storn. Winter is a killer--unless you can find Refuge

Storn, a planet far off in the Milky Way promised a new start for the inhabitants of the seven sleep-ships. They awoke from a thousand years' freeze to find all manner of problems which they eventually overcame, except for one--Winter.

 Refuge (The Chronicles of Storn)



https://www.amazon.com/Refuge-2nd-Book-Chronicles-Storn-ebook/dp/B01D5KJ4WQ
Genre: Science Fiction 
Buy Links:  Amazon 

Blurb:

An abnormal orbit around its star, Magnus, turns Storn into an unlivable habitat of freezing storms the duration of an entire Earth year. For nearly 300 winters, the settlers retired to sleep cells to survive the dark and cold. When the cryogenic units holding the frozen zygotes they had brought with them to expand the settlement’s population failed, the reluctant women were forced to replenish the settlement’s numbers the old way.

Odd things begin to happen when children were born of women, not from the genetic material brought from Earth. The ruling committee ordered them destroyed. The only way to save them is hide them. Those who care, build what they call Refuge. Now, not only will they have to survive winter, awake, they’ll have to survive the trek to Refuge—and Winter’s come early.

And be sure to check out the other books in the series including Lifeline, Dirtsiders and Caverns.
