Unusual Fairy Tales & Things

by Chautona Havig · 11 Comments

Princess Paisley CoverOnce upon a very long time ago, in a land so very far away, a very unusual princess lived.

And so goes the tale of a princess who is a little tired of being a princess.  Paisley’s majority ball is coming, and well, she’s in the minority as to the excitement of that day.  She’d like to forgo it all and spend her time with her friend Henry and her sheep.  Yep.  She likes sheep.

Everard, the second book in the Not-So-Fairytales collection just released and in preparation for the release promo, we’re sharing the silly story of Paisley.  Jackalopes, knights, traitors, princes, frog-pox, and a narrator who can’t keep her opinions to herself (hee hee).  This book has it all.

      Isn’t that convenient of him? So accommodating. I owe him a Coke… or whatever his favorite drink of choice is.

I love a great series, and this new one by Elizabeth Goddard sounds awesome!

When the Silence Breaks by Elizabeth Goddard

A deathbed confession. A decades-old secret. A mountain that holds the answers–and danger closing in. When intelligence analyst Sarah Ellison learns of her grandfather’s deathbed confession connected to her brother’s murder, she’s determined to protect her remaining family. After further investigation, she discovers the disclosed information points to a decades-old government secret buried deep in the Cascade Mountains. With this knowledge, she looks for a guide who knows the terrain like the back of their hand. After his father’s death in a tragic mountain accident, former Navy SEAL Ryder Goodwin no longer guides for the family business. At first, Ryder refuses to help Sarah, but he sees the trouble chasing her and can’t stand by while someone brings danger to his small-town mountain community. Ryder and Sarah gear up to climb the mountain in a race against time and a looming storm. When the danger escalates, their search for answers shifts to a survival mission. Their only chance to make it through involves trusting each other and confronting the truth no one wants them to find. This gripping romantic-suspense thriller set in the Pacific Northwest from USA Today bestselling author Elizabeth Goddard is a series opener that will sweep you away in a rush of adrenaline.
