READ THE BLURB

Adam:

Men like me don’t get happy endings.
When my demons talk to me, I talk back.
I heeded their call when they demanded my parents’ death.
I even listened when they ordered my own.
And they nearly won.
Until her.
One night changed my life. Then I lost it all. I lost her.
Now, I’ll do anything to get my sunshine back.
But can a sinner like me be willing to share after learning I’m not the only one craving her light?

Jordyn:

When a man shows you his red flags, run.
But running from Adam is easier said than done.
When he re-enters my life, my world implodes with the secrets he’s keeping.
Can I forgive him and learn to live in his shadows? To be the light he thinks I am?
Or will his darkness consume me?

Abel:

Witnessing your twin nearly die, hardens something in you.
I’ll do whatever it takes to keep Adam breathing.
As kids, he’d protected me, even though that was my job as the older brother.
Now, it’s my turn to protect him.
You can run little sunshine, but you won’t get far.
If Jordyn’s what my brother needs to keep his demons at bay, then I’ll claim her for us.
She’ll be ours, always.

READ AN EXCERPT

I hum a tune under my breath, slightly dancing in place as I move forward in the line, wiggling my body back and forth.

Caffeine makes me happy.

And I enjoy the excuse to get out of the house, to feel like an actual human being instead of a robot answering calls and dealing with insurance prior authorization claims—my work-from-home job. It pays decently, but I still pinch pennies, and these little treats are worth every dime.

For mental health.

Nodding to myself in agreement, I smile when it’s my turn at the counter, spitting out my order by memory alone without needing to look at the menu. I’m reaching down for my purse when a familiar pair of tattooed fingers enter my line of sight, tapping a card to the terminal before I’ve a chance to grasp my wallet.

Whirling around, I gape up at Adam, soaking in the sharp angles of his face, piercing aqua eyes, and aristocratic nose. Metal glints in the light, a piercing on the edge of his bottom lip and three hoops through the upper helix of his left ear, leaving the right undecorated.

I’ve missed him so much I could kiss him.

I don’t, though, blinking and taking a step back upon realizing we’re holding up the line.

He places a hand on my hip, guiding me away from the counter to the area where completed orders get placed. Stunned, I let him.

“W-what are you doing here?” I mumble then mentally say fuck it, reaching a hand out to grasp his bicep.

READ THE BLURB

She's in the most dangerous place in the world.

Prof. Meridia Vail, a member of the Bridgeway Space Station, has escaped the government stronghold and is on a mission among the human population of this "new" Earth. She needs to find scientists, engineers, researchers, anyone who can help her and her crew get back to their derelict space station that has crossed over into a different dimension. The sooner the better, too. The Bridgeway is in a decaying orbit and has the potential to kill millions, if it crash lands on the planet.

Trusting anyone in this New Earth is going to be hard to come by. The authorities have branded her as a maniac who has escaped from a mental hospital. For the past five years, multiple countries have colluded in declaring no survivors from the Bridgeway Space Station incident. When Meridia's finally able to convince a university professor, Dr. Dana Haden, of who she is, Prof. Vail realizes she's not home-free yet. She has to convince the entire world who she is and expose the lies nations have been telling their citizens. Will governments be forced to free her crew so they can work the problem...or will they take their chances and nuke the station from orbit to bury their secrets?

READ AN EXCERPT

“Is there supposed to be something good in this fridge?” I asked, staring at the food lining the shelves.

Dana glanced over my shoulder. “Your guess is as good as mine, but I’m betting Decker keeps the good stuff in here.”

“It depends on what your definition of good is.” All I saw were containers of leftovers that were various shapes, sizes, and colors. Everything screamed of unhealthiness to me.

“How about we start simple?” Dana placed her hand on my shoulder and ushered me over to a nearby stool where I sat at the counter. “We have this thing on our Earth called a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.”

“I know what peanut butter and jelly is.” I paused. “It’s not that crunchy kind, is it?”

“Oh my God.” Giggling, she went through the cabinets until she found an unopened jar of strawberry jam. “What’s wrong with crunchy?”

“It’s…crunchy.”

“So it’s the texture.”

“You could say that. Everything is calm and serene when it comes to chewing the soft bread and gooey jelly…but then you hit the crunchy peanut butter that shatters the peace like a baseball going through a glass atrium. It’s barbaric.”

Dana laughed as she opened up the bread sack next. “So I guess there’s no crunchy peanut butter in your world.”

“Oh, there’s crunchy peanut butter for those who want it. I’m just not that savage.”

“Oh, stop.” Beaming, Dana threw a slice of bread that hit me in the face.

I laughed. “You must like crunchy then. I rest my case, savage.”

“You’re a real piece of work, you know that?”

We both laughed.

READ AN EXCERPT

Understanding your role and your learnings in your journey is so critical and powerful.

There isn’t a distinction between who you are as a business owner and who you are in all the other roles you play. As business professionals running around all day, it is challenging to view yourself in a big picture way when you are faced with a constantly growing list of to-dos.

Have you felt like your work environment is growing stagnant and mundane? Have you felt like you’re drained by unhelpful personalities in your environment?

If so, that can turn into feeling like:

• I’m understaffed.
• I’m overutilized.
• I’m undervalued.
• I’m bogged down.
• I’m stressed out.
• I’m tired.

Some days you feel too exhausted to be kind. You’re not alone. This is a flashing red light that you are operating in your survival zone rather than your strength zone. Perform for another day. Quelch the work fires. Keep multiple balls in the air.

Meanwhile, you’re not a trained circus act.

Straight Reading from the Library: Anastasia's Midnight Song by M. Laszlo

This post is part of a virtual book tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. M. Laszlo will be awarding a $20 Amazon/BN gift card to a randomly drawn winner. Click on the tour banner to see the other stops on the tour.

READ THE BLURB

Longing to cure her deep, hysterical fears involving a diabolical dream fox living inside her womb, Anastasia T. Grace takes a post making occult mirrors in the hope that she may someday convince herself that she commands the power to banish her nemesis into one of her creations. However, when a troubled, young Englishman grows obsessed with her beauty, she is forced to confront the pressing, all-too-real, misogynistic danger of male psychopathy

READ AN EXCERPT

The Village of Al-Hubu, the Wilderness of Sinai. 29 October, 1917.

Anastasia arrived at the seaside hamlet that had always fascinated her mother and checked into a lodging house—a hostelry resembling a Roman villa. She had come to the picturesque village because she believed that the mirror works must be the one true way to emancipate herself from the vile dream fox. During the journey across the desert, she had even devised a glorious scheme: she would master the art of mirror-making, and then she would imprison the entity inside one of her creations.

Up in her room, she removed the volume from her travel bag and reread the curious title:

LE PHéNOMèNE DE LA RêVERIE

A tap-tapping of paws caught her attention. Given her surroundings, she feared that a rabid desert fox, its gait uncertain, had stolen into the building. Oh God, what’ll the creature do once it enters my room? Perhaps it’ll seek to convince me that its malady has made it tame. And if that doesn’t work, maybe it’ll scratch at itself with its sharp claws and draw blood from its pointy ears and long muzzle and . . .

The sound of the uneven footfall discontinued, as if she had imagined all—so she opened the book and studied the map. I’m here in Sinai. I can’t believe it. Sinai! She retraced her steps downstairs to the lobby and exited the hostelry.

Inside her belly, the dream fox spoke up: ‘Why did you bring us here?’

READ THE REVIEW

A dazzling and immersive literary feat, M. Laszlo’s novel is a masterful exploration of psychological fragility and surreal experience. Blending historical fiction with phantasmagoric imagination, the story follows Anastasia and Jack—two complex figures whose lives unravel and converge across continents and consciousness. While rooted in early 20th-century St. Petersburg and a remote village on the Sinai Peninsula, the novel transcends time and place, inviting readers into richly textured interior worlds filled with supernatural imagery, fractured memories, and sensory excess.

This is a novel of ideas as much as narrative. Its nonlinear structure and abstract elements may challenge casual readers, but those who embrace its ambiguity will be rewarded with an emotionally and intellectually resonant experience. Laszlo blurs the boundaries between sanity and delusion, fate and chance, crafting a landscape where internal realities are as vivid and disorienting as the outer world.

At once a psychological study, a poetic meditation, and a cross-continental epic, this work demands—and deserves—close reading. It leaves a lasting impression and invites multiple interpretations.

Recommended for readers of literary fiction who appreciate psychological depth, dreamlike storytelling, and formal experimentation. Ideal for fans of authors like Virginia Woolf, Olga Tokarczuk, and David Mitchell.

MEET THE AUTHOR

M. Laszlo is the pseudonym of a reclusive author living in Bath, Ohio. According to rumor, he based the pen name on the name of the Paul Henreid character in Casablanca, Victor Laszlo.

M. Laszlo has lived and worked all over the world, and he has kept exhaustive journals and idea books corresponding to each location and post.

It is said that the maniacal habit began in childhood during summer vacations—when his family began renting out Robert Lowell’s family home in Castine, Maine.

The habit continued into the 1990s when he lived in the Muslim Quarter of Jerusalem and worked as a night clerk in a Palestinian youth hostel. In recent years, he revisited that very journal/idea book and based Anastasia’s Midnight Song on the characters, topics, and themes contained within the writings.

M. Laszlo has lived and worked in New York City, East Jerusalem, and several other cities around the world. While living in the Middle East, he worked for Harvard University’s Semitic Museum. He holds a bachelor’s degree in English from Hiram College in Hiram, Ohio and an M.F.A. in poetry from Sarah Lawrence College in Bronxville, New York.

READ THE INTERVIEW

What is the favorite book you remember as a child?

My favorite book was an old adventure story, Enchanted Vagabonds, belonging to my father. It was a memoir written by a couple who paddled from Southern California to Costa Rica in the 1930s when conditions in coastal Mexico were very primitive. They had more adventures than Rober Louis Stevenson could have dreamed up. Despite its long-outdated story at the time I read it, it resonated with me as a child and as a result I became a world traveler. I’ve visited over 100 countries and lived in Italy for ten years but never kayaked like they did.

Tell us about your current book in 10 words.

Cappuccino with her Italian tutor turns Nicole’s life upside down.

What are you reading right now?

My book club decided to read the American Classic, On the Road, by Jack Kerouac. It’s a wild story written at a time when young men were on the loose and seeking adventure after World War II. There seemed to be no repercussions for their actions – not a story that could be written today.

E-Reader or print? and why?

I prefer print books. There is something satisfying to hold a book in my hands, to look at the cover and back, assess the typeface, and to read the author’s bio or dedication with ease.

One book at a time or multiples?

I often read two books at once – one fiction and the other creative nonfiction.

Dog-ear or bookmark? (don't worry—Librarian Judith won't hold it against you—much)

Bookmark definitely – I have a collection from places I’ve traveled and visited local bookstores. I try to smooth out any dog ears I find.

Least favorite book you've read this year?

I had a hard time with Bright Objects by Ruby Todd. It was too long. I gave up halfway.

Favorite book you've read this year?

I have lots of favorites: one was Burma Sahib by Paul Theroux. It is a fictionalized biography of George Orwell’s time as a young man in colonial Burma which turned him into the author of such books as 1984 and Animal Farm.

When do you do most of your reading?

Usually in the evening.

Favorite place to read?

I have both a cozy armchair and a daybed in my office not far from my bookcase. Very tempting indeed.

Favorite genre?

I’m omnivorous – if it has good plot, setting, and characters, I’m in!

Do you loan your books?

Once in a blue moon to someone I can trust to return it.

How do you keep your books organized?

I have my old travel guides on one shelf including the 1904 Baedeker Handbook for Travellers in Central Italy, the 1912 Baedeker Handbook for Travellers in Palestine and Syria, the first English edition of the Michelin Green Guide to Italy published in 1959, and an 1868 Views in Jerusalem. The Italian history, novels, and memoirs are together. Art books are on the bottom shelves. Everything else is random which makes for a challenge when I want to find a book I just know is there but hiding. But sometimes I find something better.

Re-reader or not?

Seldom. Too many new books I want to read.

What would make you not finish a book?

I will stop if the characters don’t engage me.

Keep books or give them away?

I donate books to our local library for resale once in a while when I have to curate my bookcases because they are overflowing, and books are stacked on the floor. It’s painful though.

READ THE BLURB

A story of love and loss, lies and truth, begins in Rome when Nicole shares a cappuccino and cornetto with her Italian tutor. The meeting sets off a chain of events that upends the course of her life. While Rome also brings deep friendships and immersion into a sumptuous food scene there is no escape from acknowledging the consequences of her actions. In search of forgiveness and healing, she moves to an island near her childhood home in Seattle only to find the way to reunite the remnants of her family and discover her true path is to return to Rome and face the past.

READ AN EXCERPT

A nearby rock invited me to perch to wait for the men to return. Tiny wild pink cyclamen flowers poked between the grasses and fallen pine needles carpeting the ground. With petals facing backward like the tail of a comet, I always saw cyclamens as shooting stars. I picked one but it had been partially eaten by some hungry insect. I let the flower fall not wanting to make a wish on an imperfect star. A local poet, another expatriate American, had recently published his latest work in a slim chapbook. I’d bought a copy when he did a reading at the bookstore Primrose formerly owned. I’d taken time from packing my things to attend and still had the chapbook in my shoulder bag. Uncertain what to do while I waited for the men, I read to pass the time. The first page I turned to held the perfect poem to suit my mood.

We could have shared a glass today but now you’re gone.
I wonder what the day will bring with its gray and lowering clouds.

On the opposite page was a woodcut of a wild cyclamen, the flower I’d picked moments ago. The words raised bittersweet memories.

MEET THE AUTHOR

After I earned a law degree in midlife, I had the chance to leave the Forest Service in Oregon and run away to the Circus (Maximus). In reality my husband and I moved to Rome where I worked for the United Nations Food & Agriculture Organization for four years as a legal advisor to the director of human resources. I could see the Circus that had hosted chariot races during the Roman Empire from my office window.

My husband and I reluctantly returned to the US after four years. But we pined for the land of pasta, vino, art, and sunny piazzas. Then the gods smiled and offered a chance to return to Rome with the UN World Food Program. Six more years or food and frolic in the Eternal City passed much too quickly. The indelible experiences living in Italy and working for the UN were the genesis of my memoir Coins in the Fountain.

READ THE BLURB

Trusting him could save her...or destroy her.

Robin Hood meets the Sopranos…an insanely dangerous scheme Gina Perot and her friends hatched to steal from the mob and donate the loot to a worthy cause. Successful Wall Street investment banker by day, cat burglar by night, Gina leads a double life. But she's never forgotten how the mob and the FBI destroyed her family and ripped her life apart. Now it's time for payback. Charity and revenge all rolled into one. Perfect. Until Gina's scheme sends her crashing headfirst into a major FBI investigation and facing heavy-duty federal obstruction charges. And, the hottest, most frustrating man she's ever met.

Stop stealing from the mob or else…is the order FBI Strike Force Special Agent Jack Gates gives Gina. But Jack quickly learns he can no sooner control a force of nature like Gina than he can control where a tornado sets down. Facing a court-ordered deadline, Jack needs Gina's cat burglar skills to help him bring down a powerful Mafioso. He makes her an offer she can't refuse: go to jail or work for him as an FBI cooperator. When the mob learns Gina's been ripping them off, Jack is determined to keep her safe at all costs. Even if that means confessing his terrible secret and losing her forever.

READ AN EXCERPT

Gina pulled open the man’s jacket, looking for an inside pocket. A wicked-looking gun stuck out from a black leather holster on his belt. Odd that he carried his gun in a holster and not stuffed in his pocket or waistband the way criminals did.

She shook it off and continued her search. “Don’t just stand there, help me. But be careful. I don’t want to hurt him.”

“Little late to worry about that, dontcha think?” Kinsey began patting down his chest. “He’s got great pecs.” Her roving hands had hiked up his knit shirt, and she let out a low whistle. “Whoa, nice abs.”

“This is no time for groping.” Gina lifted the back of his jacket. “Check his pants.”

Kinsey ran her hands over his rear jeans pockets and let out another whistle. “And what a great ass.”

“Kinsey!” Margo threw her an impatient look. “We’re not at a strip club. Hurry up!”

“Okay, okay.” Kinsey tugged a black wallet from one of his pockets. She flipped it open and held it in front of the Charger’s headlights, illuminating the laminated ID.

Gina’s heart skipped a beat. Then another.

Margo gasped.

“Holy shit,” Kinsey whispered.

For several seconds longer, none of them said another word.

Gina continued gaping at the man’s wallet as everything fell into place.

His words: You have no idea what you’ve walked into here.

Why he didn’t want to get caught in Rocco’s apartment.

Why he didn’t shoot her on the spot, and why he was chasing her down as if she were a common thief. To him, she was.

A New Life is a story that lingers long after the last page.

READ AN EXCERPT

They rushed out of the hotel and stopped short of the Lyft; they gazed in wonderment at the outrageously small size of the car. Reluctantly they climbed into the car. It was like the Mouseketeer’s car; it was so small and they were so tall. They wondered if they should try another Lyft but there was not enough time. As they pulled away, they smelted gasoline or oil burning. Louie shot Ron a silly look, then smiled.

Ron hit the ceiling with every bump; his head bounced almost out of the taxi. Louie held his hand up to avoid suffering the same fate. The roads were rough all the way to the Air France Terminal. Louie told the driver he should sell his car to an amusement park.

Ron decided to travel with just a carry-on bag. He had no desire to check bags after remembering a few of Michael’s airline horror stories of his lost luggage. Michael, his mentor and friend, truly taught him the right way to travel safe and as a gentleman; they might give you an extra drink if you're nice.

As Ron approached the departure gate, he tried to put the thought of leaving Rhonda behind out of his mind but not his heart. He wondered what Michael would say to him about this incident with Rhonda. He would tell Ron to smile; Rhonda was in a better place.
