Waiting For a Girl Like You

By Katie Delahanty

Genre: Romantic Comedy, Women’s Fiction


Rule 1: No flirting.
Rule 2: No one can know your real identity.
Rule 3: Nothing can get in the way of the bride’s perfect wedding.

Being a bridesmaid-for-hire doesn’t exactly pay off law school loans, though the job gives Gwendoline Watson time to indulge in her passion: writing for her music platform Shut Up & Sway.

But thirteen subscribers don’t add up to a lucrative career, so Gwen agrees to work overtime at a destination wedding to pay for her cat’s emergency surgery. There could be worse ways to make money—or so Gwen thinks until she lands on the dreamy Italian coast and learns the groom is the first love who broke her heart.

Duncan Avila is a wedding singer with a modern yacht-rock vibe whose voice can make any bridesmaid fall at his feet. Except the one he really wants.

Between hilarious day trips to matchmake the mismatched bride and groom and swoony late-night schemes to help Duncan’s dreams come true, is Gwen destined to always be the bridesmaid in life and love? Or is everything she ever wanted right there in front of her, just waiting for a girl like her?

This delightful rom-com set to a yacht rock playlist will keep you laughing and singing along through the last dance.

Katie never knew she was a writer. As a child, she loved old movies, costumes, fashion, playing dress up, and books. Lots of books. On her quest to play make believe for a living, she decided she wanted to be a fashion designer. After satisfying her practical parents by graduating from UCLA with a BA in Communication Studies, she went on to pursue her design dreams with a Professional Designation in Fashion Design from FIDM. She spent five years helping to design romantic dresses that were sold everywhere from Anthropologie to Nordstrom before an economic downturn led to a career shift and that practical degree came in handy. Now in charge of the ecommerce business for In Bloom Lingerie, she was asked to start the company blog. Not knowing what to write about lingerie, but needing to use bridal keywords, she decided to start a fictional serial about how a girl named Olivia Bloom, who worked for In Bloom Lingerie, became engaged. And that’s when Katie fell in love with storytelling and the path to make believe became clear. She hasn’t looked back since. She is the author of the Brightside Series and the Keystone Series and would love to connect with you at www.KatieDelahanty.com

The Pawn against the King

by Giorgos Katsoulas

 

 Historical fiction

Date Published: October 10, 2024
























 

 

The King announces a contest open to everyone, regardless of their financial status. The contest is simple: “Present me with a game that is a true simulation of battle. Whoever succeeds will be richly rewarded. However, anyone who fails and wastes the King’s time will lose their life.” A humble carpenter, confident in what he holds, requests a hearing with the great ruler. Now, he must present his idea at the risk of his life and convince the King that it is exactly what he sought.

Thus begins a mental battle between the powerful and the powerless, the strong and the weak. Genius versus authority.

Hello! I’m Terrie Lynn Birney.

I am a first-time children’s picture book author who has Cerebral Palsy. When I was born, the doctors said I would be “vegetable” my whole life. To those doctors I say “Ha, take that!” Not only am I pursuing a career in writing children’s books, I graduated from college with an associate degree in computer science. Since I can remember, I have enjoyed writing, especially about my feelings. My dedication to writing has grown in the last year with my newly published first book, with more in the future. Belief in myself is stronger with my faith as a Christian. I am grateful to have my loving husband for over twenty years and the support of my family. They have been with me throughout my journey.

I hope you enjoy my books.

What will ignite when a protected witness with a flamethrower meets the hunk next door?

The mob located Gina Weston two days before Christmas, but she refuses to run any more. Except maybe into the arms of her next-door neighbor after he extinguishes her burning flamingo Christmas tree. But are her gun and flamethrower enough to protect her from the lure of this sport hero playboy?

Former home run king Stone “Sledge” Hammer had been bored in the baseball off-season. Meeting Gianna has given him the chance to be a hero again, if she lets him in. While he’s showing her the true spirit of Christmas, can he get inside her defenses to show her the importance of home?

It’s no game they’re playing, and it’s a must-win against the mob.

If they give all their time and love away to others, will they have enough left for one another and their young son?

When Leann’s hopes for spending Christmas with her daughter are dashed, she licks her wounds by indulging in a fling with Ben, the cute guy she meets at a bar.

Now, only Leanne can decide if Ben is really what she wants for Christmas.
