Gang Of Losers

Gang Of LosersBy , free


Gang of Losers is a coming-of-age drama set in the summer of 1983.

Sixteen-year-old Theo Hanlon's main interests are drinking, girls, clothes, and most importantly playing the drums. He dreams of stardom, and can’t believe his luck when he is asked to drum for a local band on the verge of signing a record deal. But when he gets sacked in unceremonious circumstances, Theo starts a chain of events that sees him step from behind the drum kit and into the spotlight. 

Gang of Losers is a heartfelt and offbeat novel that captures the excitement of growing up and experiencing the intoxicating lure of music, sex, alcohol and independence for the first time.

Revelations, Book 1 of the Thera's Eyes series



'Revelations' is the first book of five in the 'Thera’s Eyes' series, a young adult paranormal romance, full of magic, action and with some humor.
 
Elizabeth Monterey, or Beth, was known inside the archery world as the youngest athlete to win the National Championship in all categories at the age of fifteen, repeating the feat the following year. Before reaching seventeen, she was the gold hope for the World Championship.

But fate intervened and her life was thrown upside down when a plane crashed, killing her parents and putting her twin brother in a coma. Now she struggles to maintain her brother in the hospital, where he can receive the best treatments, while trying to solve some other little problems... 

Not only was her family’s fortune gone, replaced by a debt she had no idea how to pay, but she was also dealing with night terrors and the weird after effects of those, which included uncontrollable anger and blowing lamps. To make things worse, Edgar Sanders, her legal guardian and lawyer, rented the guesthouse of the Monterey’s mansion to an annoying guy, called Leon Greese.

Idol Siren

Idol Siren, by Tiffany Fulton, free


16 year old Alicia is trying to find her niche in life according to her dead mother's wishes as well as for the father she never knew. So how does she expect to do that when the all-girls' school she attends is as stiff and dull as the headmistress who runs it and her heart isn't exactly set on fulfilling anyone's expectations but her own?  Easy.  Alicia decides to turn another world upside down. 


Now, Alicia has made one of the best decisions of her young life since her father and mother left her: She's dropped out of high school and is simply trying and apparently failing at making a life for herself--one on her own terms, that is--by attempting fit in the mold of everyone else. When it becomes clear that the mundane world is not for her, Alicia ventures in another world--the one of entertainment...more specifically singing....

When the president of the recently remodeled nightclub Red Lily uncovers her talent for singing, Alicia just might have a chance at achieving her mother's only wish, one that she must first learn to make for herself in her heart.
