The Portal
Roland Carlsson - 2021
A few IPAs. Maybe some hummus.That was all until a careless mistake sent me hurtling into another dimension. I don't understand everything just yet. With elves, trolls, and some sort of ultimate bad-ass called the Lich King running around, how could I?But, what I do understand is this: I have a job to do.Because for the first time in a long time, people depend on me.And my actions could mean the difference between life and death not just for me, but for all of Zamina.Warning: This novel contains strong harem themes. If you're not a fan of elven warrior girls, orcs, sexy pirates, duels, sorcery, and arcane lore, well buddy, this ain't the book for you.Proceed at your own risk.
The Silver Spurs Home for Aging Cowgirls
Laura Hesse - 2019
Turns out three of the four women aren’t cowgirls at all, and their horses aren’t ranch horses either.And then there is the cheating husband that came along for the ride.The word ‘baggage’ just got a whole new meaning.If you think senior living means the party is over, then you haven’t spent a night at The Silver Spurs Home for Aging Cowgirls where romance is in the air and sleeping with another woman’s man can be murder. This politically incorrect black comedy is one part Murder She Wrote and one part Blazing Saddles for lovers of outrageous romantic comedies and cozy mysteries where spurs are jingling and mysteries are afoot. Oh, and we can't forget horse and dog lovers too. More information: When the Montana family decide to turn their struggling ranch into a senior’s home for retired cowgirls and their horses, they don’t realize how much baggage comes along with them, not to mention the fact that only one of the four ladies who move in is a ‘real’ cowgirl, and one of them also comes with a husband with a wandering eye.Sam Montana thinks he’s seen it all until the four ladies show up with four stallions, blankets for every season, more tack than the barn has room for, and a list of what to feed and what not to feed the horses that is longer than his arm.Young widow, Emma Montana, and her children all agreed that a group of retired cowgirls in the house would be fun…just like having four new cowgirl grandmas. They didn’t count on a cheating husband, his completely disabled wife left helpless after a massive stroke, his mistress of forty years, and the multi-divorcee deciding that Sam’s the new mount she wants to ride. And then there are the crude jokes and midnight capers. Throw in a love struck sheriff, a jealous Forest Ranger, a hot ATF agent, a plane crash, a fugitive on the loose, and a rogue mountain lion, and Emma is over her head in no time.
This politically incorrect laugh-out-loud black comedy will leave you wondering just what your grandmother is up to when you aren’t around.
