28 Days of Heart
All Romance eBooks Has Heart…
During the month of love, when everyone's attention is focused on matters of the heart, All Romance eBooks (ARe) is helping to fight the number one killer of women, heart disease, with their 28 Days of Heart campaign.
Beginning February 1, 2010, ARe, the digital bookseller that owns All Romance (www.allromance.com) and OmniLit (www.omnilit.com), will release one new novella per day for twenty-eight consecutive days. All proceeds from the sale of these shorts, which will be offered exclusively on AllRomance.com and OmniLit.com as individual eBooks, will be donated to the American Heart Association.
The stories cover all the genres, from Gay to Interracial, Paranormal to Historical, Contemporary to Sci Fi. They were generously donated by both best selling and up-and-coming authors from some of your favorite publishers including Kensington, Berkley, Pocket, St. Martin’s Press, Ellora’s Cave, Cerridwen, Samhain, Total E Bound, Loose Id, Phaze, Liquid Silver, Torquere Press, Siren, Amber Quill and more!
The stories range between 10,000 and 20,000 words, so they are a perfect sweet (or more accurately spicy) Valentine treat. Each includes a forward by author Charlaine Harris (of True Blood fame) as a show of support for the charity the stories will benefit. Indulge yourself this year for Valentines Day—enjoy one of each, and know you are helping a worthy cause at the same time.
When Tor came upon the Saxon woman who killed his brother, he took her as his slave in order to make her pay dearly for her crime. Maida endured torment from the Viking only until she was finally able to speak the truth. Then, realising his mistake, the Viking Jarl fell deeply in love with her.The question was, could he keep her?
For me, this story is in memory of my Aunty Bet. Not just an aunt, but a wonderful friend who was astonishingly good at cryptic crosswords which left me scratching my head in defeat. Sadly, she died from heart disease when she still had so much to offer her family and the world.
Also in memory of her brother, Len, and her father Cecil. My Uncle and Grandfather who both died from heart disease.
TOR: VIKING MASTER
Ellen Margret lends her writing talents to a very worthy cause with her short story TOR: VIKING MASTER. These characters are bright and lively with convictions and opinions which they feel strongly about – and lead to some heated discussions and imaginative situations. While the reader is made aware that Maida did not kill Tor’s brother, we’re not given the full scope of the circumstances surrounding the murder right away which helps build the suspense along with the romance.
