Girl Gone Nova
Girl Gone Nova George Saoulidis
When an alien princess arrives, a jaded celebrity handler has to keep her happy. But will he manage to get through her visit, when catering to her spoiled needs is the only way to prevent her from exploding the Earth, when rebels are trying to assassinate her and when he starts to seriously fall in love with her?
Always love George's stories. He weaves mythology into his stories in such a clever subtle way. Must read!
That neon title really steals the show! Very eye catching, and I love the concept of reinterpreting fairy tales in a cyberpunk setting.
A fascinating take on ancient Greek mythology! Opening chapters bring the reader right into this page-turning story. Don't miss out!
This story looks intriguing, and I've never read a book centered around a fox before! I'm excited to learn more, and I like your cover as well! :)
Love the title and the premise! Can't wait to read it!

When her two only friends are called to join these warriors, she's left alone.
But maybe her loneliness is exactly what will save her...

Behold Darkness preview
Behold Darkness preview LC Champlin
How do you stop a cannibal-creating virus while being held captive by a terrorist mastermind? Nathan has mere hours to find the answer.
Haunted yet ambitious New York businessman Nathan Serebus considers himself more rogue than hero. But that’s before a trip to San Francisco with his attorney Albin Conrad lands them in the middle of a multiple-target terrorist attack. Worse, the strikes unleash a contagion that transforms its victims into savage, unreasoning killers.
As the Bay Area descends into barbaric violence, Nathan and his friends fight like wolves to reach safety.
Despite their ferocity, they become the terrorists' hostages. As Nathan matches wits with the plot's mastermind—whose goals may be closer to Nathan’s than he’d like to believe—the manipulation and intrigue force him
