‘Love Cabin’ by Miriam Newman

EXCERPT:

Blue skidded on the hardwood floors through the cabin, making a beeline for the back door and his pee place. Though Sandy assured her that he sprinkled her place liberally, he had to go at once to his spot in the yard, as if assuring the world he was back. Marjorie followed, .22 cradled in her arms. Nothing was going to eat her pup.

Jack was inspecting his fence line. Alerted by Blue’s furious barks, he glanced up in time to see her carrying armament.

“Hey,” he said, strolling over to the fence. “It isn’t that bad, is it?”

Marjorie smiled. “Coyotes and hawks. He’s still pretty small.”

Jack pushed back his tractor hat. “He looks like he’ll go about eighty pounds, so later you won’t have to worry. But, yeah, they’ll snatch him now.” He gestured to her rifle. “You know how to use that thing?”

“I know how to use this thing.”

“Just checking,” he said. “Those bullets carry a distance.”

“I won’t hit you. Not unless I mean to.”

He grinned. “Well, I’ve been warned. Um, I’ve got an entire freezer full of food from Saturday. Take anything you want; I’ll never eat it all.”

The thought of not cooking was highly appealing, as was the thought of a repeat. “OK. Let me feed the brat and I’ll come over.”

“You can bring him,” Jack said.

Fantasy poetry driven by myths and legends has been my passion for as long as I can remember. I was published in poetry before catching the romance writing bug. I bring that background to my writing along with a lifelong addiction to horses, an 18 year career in various areas of psychiatric social services and many trips to Ireland, where I nurture my muse. My published works range from contemporary fantasy romance to fantasy historical, futuristic, science fiction and historical romance. Currently I live in rural Pennsylvania with a “motley crew” of rescue animals. You can see my books at www.miriamnewman.com.

The Treason of Robyn Hood cover

 

Dieselpunk Adventure

 

Date Published: March 9, 2021

Publisher: Ink & Magick

What is the price of justice?

As a ward of the Lacklands, Robyn Loxley has lived a privileged life. Even now, in 1942, when another war ravages the world and people on the home front must do without, her adopted family is not affected by the rations and shortages.

That’s not to say she hasn’t been affected by the war personally. As Robyn hits yet another roadblock in her quest to see her best friend Will, trapped in a Japanese-American concentration camp, she stumbles onto the people of Sherwood.

With dark truths revealed about the Lacklands and what really goes on in Midshire, Robyn must answer what justice means to her and what she’s willing to do to exact it.

Robyn and the merry band get an update in this dieselpunk sci-fi adventure.

 

The Treason of Robyn Hood tablet

“The Treason of Robyn Hood has suspense, drama, humor, romance, and action, all jam-packed in a tightly paced novel full of intrigue…I enjoyed it immensely and will highly recommend it to fans of fantasy and adventure. “

—Readers’ Favorite®

“Connoisseurs of urban fantasy and offbeat romance will find this novel both a fun and fulfilling read. The clever characterizations and skillful melding of fantasy, adventure, and romance put a spotlight on sisterly devotion, oddball alliances, social conscience, and the human ability to rise above broken hearts and broken lives. “

 

—The US Review of Books

 

 

Excerpt

 

But the moment she stepped onto the bridge, a deep voice demanded, “state your business, stranger.”

“My business is my own,” Robyn snapped, glad her surprise didn’t show in her voice.

A giant man, seven feet in height and nearly twice her breadth, stepped out from behind a crumbling wall. “Not just anyone is allowed in Sherwood. State your business or turn back,” the man said, hopping onto the other side of the bridge, a long staff in his hand.

Robyn glared at him. “Step aside, or I’ll knock you into the canal,” she threatened.

The large man raised his eyebrows and grinned. “Are you angling for a fight?”

“Only if you won’t move out of my way.”

He nodded good-humoredly. “All right then. Much!” he called over his shoulder.

A young boy of eight or nine appeared from behind the wall carrying a staff nearly twice his height. Much handed the staff to the man, who stepped forward and offered it to Robyn.

She took the solid wood in her grip, testing its weight and wishing she and Will had trained more with the staff than the bow.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” the man asked.

“Giving me a weapon was your biggest mistake,” Robyn spat.

He grinned again. “I won’t go easy on you.”

“Neither will I,” she growled.

Billionaire Unexpected: Jax Blitz

 

Billionaire Unexpected: Jax cover

 

The Billionaire’s Obsession Series

 

Romance, Contemporary Romance, Billionaire Romance

Published: March 2021

Publisher: Golden Unicorn Enterprises

I never expected the man I saw as nothing but a billionaire player to be the only person who could rescue me from near insanity.

One moment, everything was perfect.

I was finally Dr. Harlow Lewis, research geoscientist, and I was actually employed at Montgomery Mining Laboratories, the crème de la crème of labs for my specialty. I also had good friends, a supportive parent, and a budding relationship with a great guy. Add all of those things together and it was impossible for my existence to be anything less than ideal.

I had exactly the life I’d always wanted, until it…wasn’t.

I guess I never realized that brief periods of perfection could instantly be followed by a nine day, horrific hostage situation that would forever change the woman I’d been before that incident.

Oddly, after my release, the only person who knew that I was struggling to get my life back was Jaxton Montgomery, my billionaire boss, and the king of one-nighters . Not exactly the perfect confidante, right? The two of us barely spoke unless it was company business, especially after I’d turned down a date with him two years earlier. What rational female would want to have dinner with a man who was known for his one-and-done dating behavior?

Maybe Jax wasn’t the guy I would have chosen to be the person who would drag me out of the darkness and back into life again, but he was the only one stubborn enough to do it. He systematically broke down all of defenses until I reached out and clung to him like he was the only lifeline I had.

It wasn’t until I got to know him that I realized that Jax was so much more than the playboy he was portrayed to be in the gossip columns.

He was patient, he didn’t judge, and he had a wicked sense of humor. Even stranger, he understood what I was going through, even when I didn’t understand it myself.

Unfortunately, he was also the hottest guy I’d ever met, and as our bizarre friends-but-not-really-friends relationship continued, it was getting harder and harder to fight the intense chemistry between the two of us.

What happens when a guy you thoroughly disliked just a few months ago suddenly becomes your everything?

Jax had helped me claw my way back into my life, but was I brave enough to risk everything all over again to keep the one man I’d always wanted but could never have?

About The Author

Jack Cashman

Jack Cashman’s career has put him in a number of roles, although the title of “author” is a relatively new one. Coming from a background of small business ownership, real estate, and insurance, Cashman was first elected to serve in the Maine House of Representatives in 1982. After five terms in office and some time away from state government, he returned to public service in 2003 in a variety of roles with the administration of Maine Governor John Baldacci. Cashman’s first book, An Irish Immigrant Story, was published in 2018 as a historical novel based on the story of his own family’s journey from Ireland to the United States during the time of the Potato Famine. Cashman’s unique background of business owner, elected office-holder, and government official combine with his creative mind to bring together a collection of stories unlike any author working today. Jack has spent nearly all of his life in Maine, and currently lives in Hampden with his wife of nearly 50 years, Betty. They are the proud parents of two sons and grandparents of five granddaughters.
