Faeries Don’t Forgive

Heart of the Worlds Book 2

by TF Burke

Genre: YA Epic Fantasy

Returning to Nonderu, the underworld court, to rescue her dad should have been simple after the malevolent soul-sucking Boggleman fell to his presumable demise. They just need to find a way in. And get past the Mockmen trolls.

Instead, Aunia is attacked by a fanatical soldier cult that seeks to kill or capture her. Plus, her unmanageable magic notifies deadly wererats of her location. It also hurls her into an evil sorceress’ study. If all this wasn’t enough, she’s fighting a different battle with Mathias, her pegasus-riding love. His insistence to keep her hidden is more infuriating than any of their enemies. It leaves her determined to kick anyone who says first love is easy.

Worst of all are the truths she’s uncovering. Truths that can’t be forgotten. Or forgiven.

Faeries Don’t Lie

Heart of the Worlds Book 1

Can Two Worlds Survive an Augury?

Releasing a Chandarion’s god-like magic into the world isn’t what sixteen-year-old Aunia, the village’s outcast, intends. She only wants to impress Mathias, a visiting seventeen-year-old pegasus flyer, who fiercely believes the choice—either Faery or Mortal world surviving—has come.

Her action calls forth the Boggleman, a soul-sucking ghoul, who abducts her dad, eats her faery friends, and sets Dagel demons on her isolated village. And worse.

The worlds of Ahnu-Endynia are full of faeries, pegasi flyers, myths, secrets, and themes of belonging, despite being misunderstood. And if you don’t watch carefully . . . You might be pulled into the Betwixt. . . the space between the worlds.

#LetsPlayWithSahara – Mass Effect Andromeda (Episodes 1 to 5)

Posted on February 24, 2025 by Sahara Foley

Mass Effect Andromeda is another game by Bioware.  It’s kinda in the same playground as the Mass Effect games.  it takes place during, I think Mass Effect 2 and 3, and the Imitative has sent Arcs to Andromeda for exploration and colonization.  What they find, and how they handle it, means life or death for their people.

#Let’sPlayWithSahara – Tomb Raider 2013 (Episodes 1 to 5)

Posted on February 23, 2025 by Sahara Foley

When I first started playing video games, I got into the RPG Fantasy games.  Which I love.  Then, for some reason, I played a Mass Effect game.  I think it was from watching other YouTubers and their game play and they kept talking about that series.  It’s from the same company as the Dragon Age games which I was a huge fan of.  So, I had to give it a try.  

First off, it’s a shooter type game.  Which means guns and such.  With my fantasy games, I usually played a Rouge who attacked up close with blades.  Now, I had actual weapons.  Wow.  Just Wow.  I fell in love with the shooter ty pe games.  However, they aren’t all equal.  

There are first person shooters, which I am not a fan of.  I don’t like seeing my hands in front of me.  I think because I got used to playing the fantasy games, I was used to being able to see my character and party members.  Mass Effect also has party members, but most shooter games are just you against the world. 

But I do really enjoy the third person style of shooter games.  And, usually, they also end up being platform games.  Again, a style of game play I wasn’t used to.  Needless to say, I’ve had a huge learning curve. 

Though, I’ve figured out that most gamers on YouTube delete all their  missteps and deaths.  Which I hadn’t really thought about.  I kept thinking it was me being horrible at these games.  Which, because of my old brain, I probably am.  Especially, the puzzles.  😂🤣 

Anyway, here are my first 5 episodes of Tomb Raider 2013.  Enjoy.

#LetsPlayWithSahara – Mass Effect Legendary Edition (Episodes 1 to 5)

Posted on February 22, 2025 by Sahara Foley

Mass Effect was made by Bioware, the same company that also produced the Dragon Age series.  I just loved Dragon Age and I’d heard so much good about Mass Effect I had to give it a try.  I got hooked from the beginning. 

The Legendary Edition is a remake of all the prior Mass Effect games.  So, in this bundle, you have Mass Effect 1, 2, and 3.  And each game is better then the prior one.  I heard there is a Mass Effect 4, or 5 in the works, but everyone is worried that it will end up as woke as Dragon Age: The Veilguard did.  I tried playing that game, but it was too sucky.  

Anyway, Mass Effect is a totally different type of game play for me.  I was used to being a Rouge with dual blades.  Now, I have actual weapons.  You know.  Guns.  So darn cool.  I didn’t realize how much I’d love these type of shooter games.  

Though, there has been a large learning curve.  I wasn’t used to diving for cover and kept dying because I’d stand their shooting straight on.  But, I finally got it.  Enjoy my first 5 episodes.

The Tenor’s Shadow

The Vampire Impresario Book 1

One temperamental opera singer. One vampire bodyguard. Let the sparks and secrets fly.

Anthony wouldn’t let anything stand in his way.

His career as an operatic tenor was finally taking off, and he would be damned if he let some stalker keep him from his globe-hopping musical dreams. But he had made the mistake of telling his uncle about the threatening letters the creep had been leaving in his hotel room.

Now he was saddled with a muscle-bound bodyguard who was seriously cramping his love life, even if the guy did have a swoony accent and the perfect number of freckles. No matter what Anthony did, he couldn’t get rid of the stubborn redheaded Brit. Freddie just didn’t fit in with his glamorous life of encores and galas and schmoozing. And how did the man never sleep?

Freddie was there to do a job.

Or maybe a few. He had been content as head of security for the Hughes vampire coven in London. But now he’d been sent to America to keep his coven master’s nephew safe from the threat of a rival coven. He knew the rules. Anthony couldn’t find out about the existence of vampires, and he certainly couldn’t find out that Freddie was one. Plus, he had to manage Anthony’s demanding personality, and Freddie was painfully bad with people. And he absolutely one-hundred-percent had to keep himself from hooking up with the overbearing American.

When friction erupts into steamy passion, can Freddie and Anthony forge a relationship together? Or will Freddie’s secrets and the deadly vampires of the Azarian coven tear them apart?

The Tenor’s Shadow is a 50,000-word MM vampire romance with a guaranteed HEA and no cliffhanger. It contains a strong-but-silent vampire bodyguard and the high strung opera singer that falls fast for him. It also contains steamy scenes and the violence you might expect from a vampire story. Not suitable for readers under 18.

The Archer’s Diary Book Tour & Giveaway – 2/12 to 2/26

Posted on February 17, 2025 by Sahara Foley

“The Archer’s Diary” shines in its masterful combination of medieval history with contemporary family drama and adventure.

The Archer’s Diary

Book 1

by Liam Cadoc

Genre: Historical Action, Adventure, Crime Thriller

THE LEGEND IS REAL

Since the 14th century, Robin Hood has proven to be one of the most enduring and versatile folk heroes. Medieval historians believed Robin lived during the 12th or 13th century but despite decades of intense research by contemporary scholars, solid evidence has never been found.

Until now.

Logan Daggett, son of Donald Daggett, well known CEO of one of Australia’s largest international corporations, has his 21st birthday celebrations disrupted by a family tragedy, the revelation of his mother’s decades-old secret—and a birthday gift of a collection of centuries-old family heirlooms. This series of events contrive to change the course of his life forever.

Accompanied by his two closest friends, the young Aussie sets out to uncover the truth behind the accident that irrevocably changed his life, and to research the authenticity of the priceless heirlooms, completely unaware of the adventure and dangers lurking around every corner.

During the course of their journey they uncover irrefutable evidence that causes further turmoil among the family, spark controversy among medieval scholars worldwide, and the potential of sparking upheaval to a country’s history and creating conflict between two nations.

Liam Cadoc’s stunning debut to historical fiction sweeps readers into a ruthless world where greed and corruption threaten to deprive a nation of historical riches and the world of the truth behind a legendary hero. This is Book 1 of a 2-book set.

**On Sale for 25% off at Smashwords with code PUHT7**

 

Also available at other places:

Amazon * Apple * B&N * Kobo * Smashwords * Bookbub * Goodreads

 

Cadoc endeavors to create a feasible balance of historical fact and fiction into his writing in order to meet his obligation, as an author, to his readers. To that end he spends a large part of his conceptual writing on researching the world in which the characters will inhabit. “I’ve always had a fascination with history, particularly the medieval period of England and the Arthurian Legend. Though my genre is historical fiction, I hope that my readers will come away with a better understanding and appreciation for how people survived and endured before the inception of the basic luxuries we take for granted each day.”

Retiring in 2016, he then spent 9 years working on THE ARCHER’S DIARY, his first historical fiction / modern thriller adventure novel. Most of that time was devoted to in-depth research.

He penned his first fiction while in high school and was quickly recognized by the English staff and his class for his vibrant imagination. He was also a talented artist and, after graduating, followed a 45+ year career as a graphic designer in the publishing industry compelling him to put aside writing for a number of years.

#PJsCryatalBliss New Arrivals – Mookite, Selenite and Yooperlite Carvings

Posted on February 16, 2025 by Sahara Foley

Who doesn’t love butterflies.  And this pair of Mookite Jasper wings are unique as they are made of pink Mookite.  Most Mookite I’ve seen is usually vibrant colors of yellow, red, and white.  So, these wings are quite stunning and comes with the pictured stand. 

Mookaite Jasper – a nurturing stone that supports and sustains during times of stress. It brings peace and a feeling of wholeness. Mookaite helps us with decision making, especially when we are having a difficult time. It encourages versatility and helps us to accept change. Mookaite provides us with emotional growth.

Selenite is used to cleanse and charge other crystals.  The problem with Selenite is that is a very soft mineral, so it can be easily scratched.  They have to be handled with care.  You can put trinkets in the bowl, just be mindful of any sharp edges. 

As you can see in the phone, this Selenite piece has several natural crack lines running through it.  It is not damaged.  The stone grew the way Mother Nature intended.  😁

Selenite – a powerful healing crystal that promotes peace and calm, mental clarity, and well-being. This crystal can also remove negative energy and help you connect to higher realms.  

If you’re into UV reactive crystals, you’ll love this unique Yooperlite Egyptian Man carving.  He has very strong UV reactions and he a great piece to add to any Egyptian themed décor. 

Yooperlite – Is the stone of truth and allows you to recognize and express objectively your feelings. Yooperlite releases anger and negative thoughts and helps fight your fears and phobias. It creates a clear and perceptive mind, able to find inner peace. Yooperlite stimulates self-acceptance and self-confidence.  

 

All of my crystals are one-of-a-kind pieces.  So once they’re gone, they’re gone.  First come, first served.
