DOWNLOAD EBOOKCursed at birth with extraordinary bad luck, Charlene "Chuck" Manchester provides disaster where someone else can profit. Got a failing business? For a price Chuck will make sure you collect on that insurance policy, without ever getting your own hands dirty. But when a crime boss hires her to take out an evangelical cult, things don't go as planned. Now the mob boss, the cult leader, and a dogged insurance-fraud investigator all come for her at once. Everything that could go wrong does--and only about half of it by accident. A dangerous liaison with the crime boss's daughter ups the stakes fatally for Chuck, as the curse she's run from her whole life finally catches up to her. Lela Gwenn brings a fresh voice to comics with this twisty noir, full of outlaws who aren't so much wise guys as they are smart asses. Matthew Dow Smith, best known for a long run on IDW's X-Files, brings that weird detective vibe, placing the oddball villains and anti-heroes in a grounded world taking us from the bad side of town, through shadowy office spaces reminiscent of Sam Spade, to a fiery revival tent and the splendor of a Tibetan abbey. Chuck will need more than a rabbit's foot to get through this. Collects Bad Luck Chuck #1-4.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLucky is the two book boxed set of the novel LUCKY BREAK and THE BALLAD OF JUDE. LUCKY BREAK Jude Morrison…drummer, songwriter, rockstar god. His poster hung from my bedroom wall and it wasn't just that he was hot, he was a talented musician too. He inspired me. The one time I saw him perform live with Silverlight was enough to make me realize that was what I wanted to do with my life. I got lucky, but I've always been lucky, that's my name. I got a recording deal and a tour to go along with it. Only problem is the record company wants a big name to be on tour with me. I should have been happy hearing they tapped Jude Morrison for my tour, instead I thought my luck had finally run out. How am I supposed to perform with this cocky jerk when I can't even take my eyes off of him? What's worse is when I catch him looking back at me, I want to forget about the bad boy I've heard about in the news. He says he's never been that guy and I should give him a chance. But am I really that lucky? THE BALLAD OF JUDE The biggest rock band in the world owes it all to a muse. Zoey Ackerman has a weakness--rock stars. Their looks, their swagger, and if they tried to sweet talk her with some lyrics, she'd probably melt on the spot. But when she takes a summer job at the hottest club in LA, the last thing she expects is to have to clean up after a bunch of wannabes. Back stage at amateur night, Jude Morrison is ready to give up on his dreams of rock stardom. That is until he meets a pretty club rat. She's spirited, smart, and different from the other girls he's always falling for. And when she says she believes in him, he knows he's finally found his muse. Zoey had no idea a summer job would lead to her helping create one of the biggest rock bands in the world. But when Jude goes on tour, can their love survive the temptations of sex, drugs and rock n roll? This is a spin off from the novel Lucky Break. Lucky includes a brand-new epilogue, extended scenes, and a special note from the author about the inspiration behind Lucky and Jude.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"The Old West collides with World War II." In Roy McShane's second installment of his trilogy, HWELTE, bomber pilot First Lieutenant Chuck Hewitt returns home wounded from Stalingrad, in 1943, to his parent's ranch at Flagstaff, Arizona. He's a broken man looking for answers-ultimately finding those answers in the extraordinary history of his white grandfather's and Navajo grandmother's struggle to forge a life together against all odds in the 1880s. Inspired by his grandparent's hardships, Chuck decides to get back in the war and transfers into fighters. He eventually winds up in England, in 1944, with the 354th Fighter Group-the first group to fly and fight over Europe in the new, revolutionary P-51 Mustang. Whereupon, after his initial mission escorting B-17s over Germany, Chuck makes a startling discovery about the common denominator fighter pilots and bomber pilots share: They are all condemned men living on death row. "...McShane's descriptions of the American West, and the air war in Europe during World War II, are the best I've ever read." -San Francisco Bay Guardian "The Old West collides with World War II. Strap in and hold on for the ride of your life..." -Los Angeles New Times "...a western, a war story, a flying story and a love story, McShane pulls them all together with exciting realism." -St. Louis Post-Dispatch HWELTE (whell-`tay) n. Navajo: meaning fortress or place of refuge. Author's Websites: www.thaiwave.com/hwelte www.phuketdir.com/hwelte
