And not to worry even if you're already read these books. We're looking out for you, and invite you to read our newest release, Nesting by Renee MacKenzie.

Macy Stokes, a divorced mother who is struggling with her sexual identity, jumps at a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help her friends. She doesn't foresee it will put her in jeopardy of losing her son, Jeremiah.

Fresh out of high school, Cam Webber travels to Augusta, Georgia, to reconcile with her aunt. When she learns that's impossible, she determines to gain acceptance from her aunt's partner, Sharon. Meanwhile, Cam sets her sights on Macy, but Macy has other ideas.

Kenny Brewer is a good old boy who loves his wife, Dorianne, even when he thinks she's gone totally off her rocker. Dorianne gets it in her head that a local woman is her long-lost half-sister. But soon, her obsession with that is eclipsed by medical problems that involve them all.

Set in Augusta, Georgia, Nesting explores the age-old issues of guilt, regret, and redemption, and the part they play in driving people to create and protect family-at any cost.

All right! Make room on your bookshelves (or your Kindle)! We're very pleased to announce that Laurie Salzler's new book, Positive Lightning, is here for your reading pleasure!

Kate Winter teaches dog owners how to train their canine companions. During her spare time, accompanied by her Lab, Dakota, she explores the woods and beaches on foot or horseback. She's worried that something's happening in her relationship, but she can't get her girlfriend to talk to her about it.

Faith Hutchins recently lost her sight after a terrible outdoor accident. She's dealt with anger, depression, and her blindness primarily on her own. A seeing-eye dog would help alleviate her reliance on anyone else, but the guide dog school has been unsuccessful in providing her with one. On a mission to find someone who will train a dog specifically for her, she ultimately zeroes in on Kate.

They say lightning never strikes the same place twice. But positive lightning is notoriously unpredictable and can ignite a fire when and where least expected… no matter who's in its path.

And it's here! Rendezvous in the Himalaya, the gripping sequel to Angela Koenig's Rebellion in Ulster, is now available!

Haunted by memories of the disastrous Troubles of Northern Ireland, Jeri O'Donnell has joined her old friend, Rafi Gregoric, who is now a power broker in the new Russia. Rafi's current venture is arranging a meeting between a Tibetan monk and a noted UN official. The monk has evidence of brutal Chinese oppression and, if his information becomes public, perhaps the reforms that swept the Soviet Union can reach China.

Guiding the UN official through Himalayan highlands is exactly the kind of work that Jeri seeks to exercise her skills and exorcise her conscience. With the help of a Sherpa and his nephew who know the back trails, Jeri hopes to avoid Chinese and Nepali border guards as well as British SAS forces who have targeted her as a terrorist.

Just as the mountain trek begins, Jeri encounters Kelly Corcoran, a tourist from the United States. Kelly is aimlessly adrift in Nepal, emotionally desolated by the recent loss of her brother and his friends to AIDS. Both women recognize that a powerful connection links them, but while Kelly is willing to gamble her heart, Jeri struggles against involving anyone in her perilous and chaotic life. An uneasy compromise finds Kelly accompanying the small group at least to the Tibetan border. On this journey, Kelly will need every ounce of her courage and nerve to convince Jeri that the future only makes sense if they risk a life together.

Follow Jeri's adventures in Book II of the thrilling Refractions Series.

Stay tuned for Laurie Salzler's new book, Positive Lightning. Also on the way is the new book from Renee MacKenzie, Nesting, and plenty of other good things!

In the summer of 1951, a hate crime happened in a small Texas town. It was covered up at the time, but the deadly event changed the lives of everyone involved. One of those, E.L. “Marty” Signoret, went on to write a famous young adult novel similar in impact to “To Kill a Mockingbird.”

Now in her eighties, Marty returns to Tantona, Texas, accompanied by her young would-be biographer. Marty is there for the funeral of Roberta—the closeted lesbian who left a path of wounded lovers in her lifetime.

Roberta Steinhall, beautiful and ruthless, was the queen of the closet for over sixty years, yet she must have been a teenager once. Must have been ready to risk everything for the love of a girl. That girl was Marty.

A house burned down; a life was lost. Lies were told and secrets buried. Now Marty is ready to tell the truth to a circle of lesbians and gay men who knew Roberta in her prime.

In flashbacks that comprise most of the novel, we relive that summer of ’51, where a Latino man courts Marty’s married sister, a Jewish girl tries to keep her Christian boyfriend under wraps—and teen lovers Marty and Roberta are faced with a life-or-death decision.

Erin Flannery and her Aunt Tess are co-owners of Grand Lake's Rainbow Lodge.

Afraid to put her heart on the line after her partner's betrayal five years before, Erin is not ready for any long-term commitment and covers her pain with meaningless one-night stands.

We're also very pleased to welcome Charlene Neil to the Blue Feather family!

Charlene Neil resides with her three children in Cape Town, South Africa.

As a child she always had a wild imagination, and she still sometimes finds her mind in a parallel universe. Charlene loved to write poetry in school, and she also wrote songs for her music band when she was in high school. Luckily, the band was just a rebel phase, and she soon returned to reality.

Currently, Charlene works as a specialized case manager for a big medical company. In her free time she loves to play with her children and read novels, but, she lives to write. Once she starts, she just can't stop. Her first novel, The Prodigins, was published by a South African publisher, Memories SA. It's a fantasy novel with the young reader in mind.

Charlene's passion, however, lies with lesbian romance and the paranormal. Her interest in the paranormal was inspired by events that happened to her throughout her life. Most of the experiences described in her second novel, The Presence, are based on real events. The Presence will be published by Blue Feather Books in 2013.
Charlene is currently working on her third novel, which she is hoping to finish by the end of 2013.

We're happy to announce that Superstition Shadows, the very first volume in the Shadows series, the 5-book saga chronicling the exciting adventures of archaeologists Kim and PJ, is now available! Newly edited and revised, for the very first time since its original publication this book will also be available in digital format.

Eminent archaeologist Kimberly Blair has spent most of her professional career searching for evidence of a lost tribe of Amazons. Fearing the loss of her financial backing, she reluctantly accepts her benefactor's daughter as an assistant on a dig in Arizona's Superstition Mountains.

But PJ Curtis, although a well-educated archaeologist, seems to lack dedication and maturity, and her reputation as a playgirl threatens the cohesiveness of Kim's close-knit crew.
Soon, PJ's questionable judgment jeopardizes Kim's obsessive quest; a quest that brought her halfway across the globe to the Southwestern United States.

Kim and PJ encounter earthquakes, rockslides, rattlesnakes, and a growing attraction for each other. They discover that shadows from the past can reach out to those living in the present, and that Amazons exist even today. Their spirit and strength live on in the souls of these two women.

So indulge in some notalgia, and immerse yourselves in the adventure that started it all for our two intrepid archaeologists! Get your copy now, at www.bluefeatherbooks.com, or at www.bellabooks.com.

It's here! Laurie Salzler's new book, Right Out of Nowhere, is now available for purchase!

Roni Oatman belongs to a crew that conducts Search and Rescue Operations for the Forestry Service deep in the Bitterroot Mountains of Idaho. They save lost people, but Roni is a bit lost herself. She’s a loner, who loves a woman she can’t have. Rather than dwell on what is out of reach, she buries herself in her work—or in her other business of training horses. Which, to her chagrin, isn't going so smoothly, either.

When the SAR crew is short a member, Selena Ayala is assigned to fill the empty spot. Still on the rebound from a sudden breakup with her girlfriend, Selena has issues of her own. But she has to find a way to gain the crew’s trust, and gain it quickly. Often the missions in this rugged and unyielding wilderness are matters of life and death, and the SAR members have to be able to depend on each other.

Just when Roni and Selena are forming a tentative friendship, Selena’s ex shows up, leaving both Selena and Roni with uneasy questions. Can the two women search deep within to rescue themselves and to find love right out of nowhere?

Hurry and get your copy now, at www.bluefeatherbooks.com, or at www.bellabooks.com.

She's worried that something's happening in her relationship, but she can't get her girlfriend to talk to her about it.

Faith Hutchins recently lost her sight after a terrible outdoor accident. She's dealt with anger, depression, and her blindness primarily on her own. A seeing-eye dog would help alleviate her reliance on anyone else, but the guide dog school has been unsuccessful in providing her with one. On a mission to find someone who will train a dog specifically for her, she ultimately zeroes in on Kate.

They say lightning never strikes the same place twice. But positive lightning is notoriously unpredictable and can ignite a fire when and where least expected… no matter who's in its path.

We're hard at work, so expect more exciting news soon!

Blue Feather Books is very excited to announce that Bev Prescott's new book, Step Into the Wind, is now available. After her fantastic debut novel, My Soldier Too, Bev's new book is another fantastic story about overcoming difficulties, and the strength of the spirit.

Alex Marcotte is a runner. She's been running since the day her twin brother took his life at the age of fifteen to escape the bullying he endured for being gay. Alex runs from her anger at her parents for not protecting him, from the stain his death left on her family's summer camp for kids in Maine, and from the unrelenting anxiety and depression that still haunt her.

Years after not having stepped foot in Maine, she agrees to go back for the summer because her mother is dying and her father is struggling to maintain the camp. Her plan to say good-bye to her parents and Maine once and for all gets complicated when she falls in love with Zoe Kimball, a wildlife biologist, assigned to study a breeding pair of eagles that have taken up residence on an island owned by the camp.

Over the course of the summer, Alex gets closer to Zoe and is drawn into the struggles of the eagles' offspring as they learn to live in a harsh world in which survival depends on trusting that their fledgling wings will carry them. Will Alex see the parallel in her own life long enough to stop running? Will she be brave enough to trust her heart and step into the wind, so that she can finally fly free of her burdens?

Happy New Year to all our readers! We're kicking off the new year with Gato Timberlake's debut novel, an E. Taylor mystery, No Corpse Is an Island:

How hard can it be for the outstanding Private Investigator Elizabeth Taylor to find the research papers of a man who killed himself? A man who was the fiancé of her housemate? Figuring it should be a breeze, Taylor (her preferred moniker) jumps at the job. Uh-oh. Turns out the police can't rule out foul play, and Taylor, being Taylor, can't rule out getting involved.

With high hopes of finding Stan McCormick's notes, she travels to Grafton Island in Chesapeake Bay, where Stan was in the middle of a land dispute. Upon her arrival, she meets the attractive and beguiling Priscilla Stewart. Could it be love at first sight? Leave it to Taylor to fall for a murder suspect! Priscilla got smashed the day Stan died, and she can't remember anything that did or didn't happen. Taylor's mission has expanded from locating Stan's notes to finding Stan's killer, thereby proving Priscilla's innocence.

Taylor noses around and asks questions that put her right in the middle of problems centered on Grafton Island: farmers against the watermen, newcomers against the old-time residents, and environmentalists against the questionable real estate dealings of developers.

The more investigating she does, the more people she finds with motives to have murdered Stan. She receives threatening notes and has several close calls that rattle her to the bone. She finds Stan's research papers, but can she find the killer before he makes fish bait out of her?

This witty, intriguing mystery will definitely keep you turning the pages, so don't wait, head to Bluefeatherbooks.com, or to Bella Books, and get your paperback or e-copy now!
