Book Description
It doesn’t matter if you walked through a portal in time and space, used a magic spell or arrived as the result of some technological marvel that transported your blasted atoms in a focused beam of energy. The important thing is you have arrived. Imagine you have come to a strange land and an even stranger roadhouse. Not your run of the mill bed and breakfast nor a typical medieval inn, but a place where the drinks are free as long as you share a story. At a muddy crossroads in a small hamlet in Antioch, the land of chaos, you are a visitor to Storyhole Inn. It goes on and on in this anthology of strange tales told around the great room of the Storyhole Inn. Whether it’s a tale about planning the perfect wedding on a giant luxury spaceship or the daily grind of protecting a princess from the bad guys, there’s something for everyone here. We learn about a cadet that earns his passage to adulthood and also a story about what not to give your alien in-laws to drink. And speaking of aliens, some of them seem to have a taste for the very essence of man. Twelve authors present eighteen stories of fantasy, science fiction, paranormal, and horror for your entertainment. We hope you will stay for a while and enjoy the ambiance of Storyhole.

Book Description
She's a loner for a reason… but when she's asked to take care of her estranged, orphaned nephew she can't say no. Can the help of a kind-hearted counselor and this heartbroken boy finally give her the courage to face her past demons and learn to love again? Cassie: Foster care stole more from me than I will ever admit. It's easier to shut out the world and stay within the safety of my job at the library and my tidy, little bungalow. But then I get a desperate call from a sister I never thought I'd see again. She's dying. She wants me to take her kid. The thought of that boy going into foster care is too much. But I don't know what the hell I'm doing. How do I give him the life he deserves when I barely know how to take care of myself? Felix: I can’t think of anything worse than moving in with my weird aunt. I miss Mom and don't know how to deal with this constant ache in my chest and stomach. The only person I don't mind so much is Troy—the counselor who’s been assigned to my case. He seems pretty cool… way better than my quiet, neat-freak aunt and the constant look of worry on her face. Troy: When I first met Cassie and Felix, my heart was triggered in a way I didn’t expect. Cassie may seem timid, but there's a quiet strength within her. She's seen evil—I can sense it. More than anything, I want to help her… but can I break down her barriers in order to help this boy? And will she ever open up enough to let a guy like me win her heart? Hole-Hearted is a deeply emotional stand alone NA romance that comes with its own playlist. You are guaranteed a sweet and spicy love story with a happy ending. Be prepared for an emotional ride. This story will break your heart… then make it sing. Trigger warning: Child and domestic abuse ★★★★★ "Beautiful heartbreaking story told in 3 POV's about finding hope, healing & love! One of my faves by this author!" Secretly Adorkable Readers ★★★★★ "Melissa Pearl has this special way of capturing my ♡ – and especially with these three characters, she made my heart melt and hurt and feel within a few pages."
