Karen L. Abrahamson

With the destruction of the American Geological Survey complete and the Gifted and their power no longer a secret, all Gifted must choose to fight or flee. The mortally wounded agent Vallon Drake and her friends run for the border, desperately hoping for the help of the ancient Cartographers who, so far, have considered the Gifted far beneath their notice.

But dealing with the Cartographers reveals a personal history that Vallong never wanted to know. When those responsible for the AGS’s destruction find a way to block the Gifted’s power, Vallon must overcome her past to face a threat that will destroy not just the Gifted, but all life on earth.

Karen L. Abrahamson delivers another breakneck adventure that leaves the reader gasping in this fourth book of the American Geological Survey. With its twists and turns and memorable characters, Abrahamson delivers an ending that begs for “just one more”.

Maybe it was Valentine’s Day, but the past few months here at Twisted Root have been focused on romance titles. One novel and nine new short fiction and novellas have been published and are available at your favorite online e-tailer.

A Different Nightmusic– Karen L. McKee

For Oklahoma girl Trisha ‘Monty’ Montgomery, going to Lake Farm to escape her past and to breed a top jumping horse might be her one chance at a new life. But the shame of poverty and a past with men she isn’t proud of taints her attraction to the taciturn Jack Lake, the mysterious owner of Lake Farm.

When a flaming white horse gallops across her path and causes her to crash her truck, Monty ends up stranded at Lake Farm. Trapped as much by her pride as by lack of money, she soon finds herself entangled in mysterious goings-on: Is the flaming horse real? What is making the stable’s stallion go mad in the middle of the night?

And most of all, is Jack her enemy or her fate—the man who will send her stumbling back to a life of shame, or the man who will help her move on to a new life?
