A Time Travel Romance ~ GOING TO ANOTHER PLACE by Lauren Marie
Publisher: Books to Go Now
A man, from 2008, falls forty eight floors from a building in Seattle and wakes up in 1815 England.
A woman, in 1815 England, watches a bright star fall from the sky. She travels to the future, but can’t stay due to her lack of immunity to the 21st century diseases.
Michael Drury and Emma Wallace have fallen in love, but are torn between two worlds. He has family in the 21st century. She wants to stay with him, but continues to grow very ill, very fast.
Spanning almost 200 years, will their love be able to exist in the same time?
“Where am I?” Michael asked.
“This is Delancy Manor. We are an estate outside the village of Darlington in county Durham, England,” Mr. Delancy answered.
“What year is this?”
“1815, sir,” an older woman said from the foot of his bed.
“1815 is impossible. I was born in 1980 and working a construction job. It’s 2008.”

MISSING AND PRESUMED DEAD A Chandler County novel by Cherime MacFarlane
DEMON KING’S DESIRE Elemental Sisters Series#1 by J.L. Sheppard
Genre: Paranormal Fantasy Romance
Jenna Jenson’s spent her life wondering why she’s different. The only people who may help her find out have been lost to her since their mother’s death. When she’s attacked by a man whose supernatural abilities supersede her own, she’s rescued by the devastatingly handsome demon king, Lucas Thaler. While she’s inexplicably drawn to him, powers she never knew she possessed are unleashed, leading her to discover she’s part of a new breed of immortals who can either save or destroy life.
After a war in his demon plane and home, Lucas has dedicated his life to battling Malum Inmortalis, rogue immortals whose sole purpose is to rule immortals and mortals alike. As fate would have it, the hunt for these vile creatures leads him to her. Instantly, he recognizes her. She’s the woman he’s been waiting for, for centuries, the woman he’s been dreaming of for centuries—his fated mate.
Lucas climbed the series of steps and knocked on his bedroom door.
“Come in.”
He opened the door. His gaze landed on her, sitting on the bed, a towel wrapped around her. Clenching his jaw, he turned and dropped the bag he held in his grip on the floor. Then he closed his eyes hoping to wipe away the image of her in a towel. No use, it’d been seared in his mind since the night before.
“I’m sorry. I thought I heard you say come in.”
“I did.”
Fisting his hands, he forced his voice to remain calm. “You’re in a towel.”
“What is it with you guys and towels? It’s not like I’m naked.”
“No, you aren’t, but Jenna, do you realize the effect you have on men?”
For a moment, he heard nothing, not even her breaths. Then she stood and neared. “Excuse me.”
Damn it. Maybe he shouldn’t have said it. Granted, if she didn’t know, she should. Maybe then, she would mind men seeing her in a towel. He hated the thought of anyone looking at her, at what was his. It was irrational, he knew, but he couldn’t help how he felt.
“Lucas, turn around.”
He did as told but kept his stare level, above her head.
“Now look at me.”
He angled his head, stared into her eyes, and admired the dark-brown hue. Then because he couldn’t help himself, he lifted his hand and trailed it along the side of her face. He’d never felt anything so soft, silky. He shouldn’t have expected anything less. She was all beauty, the way she looked, walked, talked, even moved, and she deserved better than him, a demon, a monster.
“You’re so beautiful, Jenna. Any man would give his life to touch you once, just like this.”
Her breaths coming out in small gasps, she whispered, “I feel it. I hadn’t noticed it before, but I feel it now.”
Cupping her cheeks, he leaned into her so her mouth was millimeters from his. “What do you feel?” He asked even knowing she felt what he did because around her, it was hard to keep his emotions in check.
“What you’re feeling… I think it’s awe.”
He couldn’t help himself then either. Gaze scanning her face, he leaned down and claimed her lips. When he parted his mouth, she parted hers. Then he slid his tongue inside, and she did the same, kissing him as softly as desperately.
Without losing hold of her mouth, he hooked an arm around her waist, tugged her toward him, and lifted her off her feet. Instantly, she wrapped her legs around him inching her towel higher. Her core’s warmth on his stomach, he groaned.
Take her. Claim her. Mark her. His demon, his instincts demanding what belonged to him. He fought them, fought to keep control.
He hadn’t told her she belonged to him, hadn’t told her what it meant, so he didn’t have a choice.
Using all the willpower he had, he pressed his forehead against hers, tore his mouth away, set her on her feet, and strode away.

SUBMERGED
Mermaids can be cruel creatures.
I couldn’t stop them from hurting her, but I couldn’t let them destroy her, no matter what they did to me. The moment I heard the bottom feeder had been chosen for the reckoning, my heart sank. Had I been discovered for what I truly was? Years of pretending I was just like everyone else could all have been for naught. But then I heard it was Verona, and my blood ran cold.
Why was I surprised?
I shouldn’t have been. I’d stood by and watched her ridiculed since we were younglings. I was never as brave or as unselfish as she was. But today, I would be.

Mermaids can be cruel creatures.
Verona is a bottom feeder. She is the one mer in her clan who is considered the ugliest and least intelligent. Growing up with the constant bullying and abuse wasn’t the worst of what her kind had in store for her. At seventeen years old, she must now endure “The Reckoning.”
The scales will measure her worth to her clan. Will she endure thirty days as a land-walker to gather information and knowledge to appease her clan and return a valued member? Will she wait three years, until she is twenty, and find a mer of her kind to accept her and marry her? Or will she suffer exile for the rest of her life?
