OCTOBER 18th to NOVEMBER 1st, 2012
PHOENIX
by J.A. SCUDIERE
SYNOPSIS:
Jason Mondy’s world is unraveling.
His seemingly secure job as a fire fighter is suddenly thrown into chaos.
The bright spot in his week is that he rescued two children from a house fire,
but he returns home that night to find all his furniture is missing.
His girlfriend has left him without warning and his nightmares keep him from sleeping.
Even just a simple trip home to find some rest leads his adoptive mother to sit him down
and tell him that maybe his troubles aren’t quite as innocuous as they seem.
Then she divulges a secret she’s kept for over twenty-six years . . .
Jason has a brother he doesn’t remember existed.
He doesn’t remember his life before he was adopted at age seven.
He only knows that he was rescued from the fire that took his birth mother’s life.
But the story is deeper than that, and the foundation on which he built his world is now cracking.
The brother he doesn’t remember it out there somewhere, left behind.
Armed with only this stunning new piece of information,
Jason embarks on a quest to find the truths buried deep in his past.
As he searches, one by one the pieces of his life fall like dominoes.
And the more he uncovers, the more everything he thought he knew
about himself and his past
begins to turn to ash.
His truth isn’t true at all . . .

LOW PRESSURE
by SANDRA BROWN
SYNOPSIS:
–Bellamy Lyston was only twelve years old when her older sister, Susan, was killed on a stormy Memorial Day. Bellamy’s fear of storms is a legacy of the tornado that destroyed the crime scene along with her memory of what really happened during the day’s most devastating moments.
–Now, eighteen years later, Bellamy has written a sensational, bestselling novel based on Susan’s murder. Because the book was inspired by the tragic event that still pains her family, she published it under a pseudonym to protect them from unwanted publicity. But when an opportunistic reporter discovers that the book is based on fact, Bellamy’s identity is exposed along with the family scandal.
–Moreover, Bellamy becomes the target of an unnamed assailant who either wants the truth about Susan’s murder to remain unknown or, even more threatening, is determined to get vengeance for a man wrongfully accused and punished.
–In order to identify her stalker, Bellamy must confront the ghosts of her past, including Dent Carter, Susan’s wayward and reckless boyfriend – and an original suspect in the murder case. Dent, with this and other stains on his past, is intent on clearing his name, and he needs Bellamy’s sealed memory to do it. But her safeguarded recollections – once unlocked – pose new, unforeseen dangers.
–As Bellamy delves deeper into the mystery surrounding Susan’s slaying, she discovers disturbing elements of the crime that call into question the people she holds most dear. Through haunted by partial memories and conflicted over her feelings for Dent, she won’t stop until she reveals Susan’s killer. That is, unless her killer strikes first….

TELEVENGE
by PAMELA KING CABLE
SYNOPSIS:
Andie Oliver is a faithful woman—to God, to husband Joe, and to televangelist Calvin Artury, a Godfather in a Mafia of holy men. Joe works limitless hours on the megachurch ministry team, falling deeper into debauchery, while Andie attempts to free him from the Reverend’s control and far-reaching influence. Uncovering long-hidden truths—even murder—she loses everything, including her children. Andie fights for redemption for her family and herself, confronting the very definition of sin, and shaking the Christian evangelical world to its core. Evading ruthless adversaries who will go to any lengths to protect Reverend Artury, Andie battles the dark side of televangelism.

Hello Sunday Saloners!! It’s been a while since I have posted but due to being in a reading slump and busy with PICT and PBP tours, there hasn’t been much to report. But this week is different. I started reading again and also had an event take place that I wanted to share.
Reading: As I mentioned, I have been in a slump, reading just one book in September. And after spending so much time in front of a computer, working on tours for Partners In Crime Tours (PICT) and the newly launched Providence Book Promotions (PBP), my eyes are too tired to read. I had even signed up to participate in Seasons of Reading Read-A-Thon, hoping that would help, but unfortunately I didn’t make it. But then I knew just how to jump start my reading, and that’s reading one written by a favorite author, Vincent Zandri. He is touring with PICT this month with one of his newly published books, The Disappearance of Grace. Yup!! That’s what I needed!!! And now, I am looking forward to the Dewey Read-A-Thon this coming weekend.
Blogging: Besides working on tour to-dos, I have, also, fallen behind on my blog. A few weeks ago, during a 2 week span, I had spent time away from the computer for long periods of time due to RL issues, and have been trying to catch up on my posts. I like to draft up my guest author showcases and giveaways in advance so that they are ready to go and not have to scramble at the last minute, which is what I have been doing and not liking it.
Real Life: This was definitely the highlight of my week!!!!! Months ago, I had read and reviewed a book for WOW!, Ragdoll Redeemed: Growing Up in the Shadow of Marilyn Monroe by Dawn Novotny.
The book, a memoir, blew me away!! It left quite an impression on me!!. I had read it way in advance of my scheduled tour date, and knowing this was the first time the author was on tour, I sent her my drafted review to let her know what I thought. From there we corresponded through emails and a friendship developed. Dawn, in one email asked where I lived and when I told her, she responded that she was coming to RI in October for a conference. We instantly made plans and was so looking forward to meeting her. This past Tuesday, the day was finally here. I picked her and an associate up from the airport, which was kind of funny, because they loaded the car with their luggage and jumped in, since it was raining and it was like I was picking up an old friend who just returned home. The conversation just started to flow on the way to their hotel. Once at the hotel, they checked in and Dawn and I met at the restaurant. Again, without missing a beat, the conversation started and didn’t stop. She is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside. Absolutely beautiful!!!!
We talked about anything and everything. Unfortunately, due to her long flight and the time difference, we called it a night. I am just amazed by her story, her life, her outlook, her accomplishments. She is a true inspiration! Matter of fact, a couple of things we talked about, were so powerful, that I sat back and just took it in. But knew from that moment on, I would be using her philosophy on life. On Wednesday night, I had just finished eating, the husband had left on a business trip, and I was just relaxing and waiting for the Presidential debate to start and the phone rang. It was Dawn, and again without missing a beat, the conversation started and continued, talking about dinner the night before, politics, her conference, etc. She was, like me, resting from her day and waiting for the debate to air. I know that this friendship will continue via phone, emails and hopefully another night out in the future!!
