One Small Bite

The excitement is growing here at Kingsmuir Press with our newest novel due out in just days!  We are jumping the final hurdles with editors and production managers and expect to have it available to order by Tuesday!  The novel we are so excited about is One Small Bite by R.J. Hanrahan.  If you like Fifty Shades of Gray type naughty novels only with vampires, then this is the book for you.  This novel cannot be neatly pigeonholed into one specific category, it’s drama, with romance and a little erotica for those looking for a little more spice.

Look for it this week on Amazon and Barnes and Noble, should be out on all e-readers in the next week.  Here’s the back cover teaser:

Pemberthy Parker grew up having very little in her lower middle class community, but from these humble beginnings emerges the woman destined to be Queen. At first, it seems like a dream that one day she will return to her mother’s kingdom and her vampire coven as it’s ruler. Pem’s mother left the coven and married a mortal many years ago to avoid her own arranged marriage to King Vitale, a man she did not love.

She did not, however, escape the King’s indignant wrath. Desperate to keep the crown in the Urbino family, the king on his death, arranged the betrothal of Pem and his cousin Fortuno. Now Pem finds herself the victim of an elaborate intrigue, in a world that is completely foreign to her. She has been betrayed by her own mother and her husband has been executed, she fears for the life of her son after the courts annul her marriage and declare her son a bastard. It is only then that she finds she is merely a pawn in a much larger plot by the Milan family in their relentless quest for power.

The players in this drama are not only driven by their insatiable thirst for power but they have been cursed for many centuries by their primitive cravings for blood and lust. In their quest to satisfy their ancient cravings, this vampire coven takes naughty to a whole new level. Their bodies crave satisfaction and they will get it in any way they can. This is the story of seduction, power and lust, and the intricate web which entwines these things in a kingdom where there is no ‘happily ever after’.

Hot books to read this summer!

Lounging in a hammock, lazing away the day in a sunny lounge chair, these hot summer days are made for enjoying a good novel and we at Kingsmuir Press have a few suggestions.

Our hottest  author Jean Marie Stanberry has been heating up the book charts with her newest release “Blood, Sweat and Fears” a heart pounding drama that will transport you to Paris in the early 1980’s, where one man’s desperate plan to escape the communist Soviet Union goes awry and shakes up the entire cast of the European Theater Company.

Jean Marie Stanberry has three other books to choose from in genres to suit just about any reader. Check out “Laying Low In Hollywood” (Romance), “One World United” (Post Apocalyptic Science Fiction) and “The Illusion of Order”

If you are looking for a coming of age romance that will tug at your heartstrings, I urge you to check out “An Imperfect World” by our newest author Lyoness Bradley. This novel, set in the late 1970’s tackles the issue of court ordered school desegregation and the drama it created at one high school, when the heroine forms and unlikely friendship with a desegregation student that eventually develops into a romance, things get dicey.
