The Frights of Fiji Book Blast and Excerpt

Here's a middle-grade fantasy book that your child just might like. Let them read the excerpt below to see. Nice seeing more books with a female lead. Enjoy.

 Alyssa McCarthy's Magical Missions, Book 1

Middle-Grade Fantasy

Published: October 2018 Second Edition

Publisher: S.A. Prasad Publishing

A Modern Magical World Awaits…

Life changes for twelve-year-old Alyssa McCarthy when she discovers magic—something nobody has ever believed in. Strange incidents occur, hinting that a sorcerer is out on the loose. That warlock kidnaps Alyssa from her uncle’s home and takes her to an enchanted Fiji Island called Yanowic.

The only way she can overthrow him is to fight perilous creatures as well as track the other wizards using magical technology. But unless she succeeds, Alyssa will remain trapped in the nation.

Originally published in 2013, the book has been updated to its full potential while keeping the same storyline.

Straightforward Pricing at Red Apple Fireworks

Fireworks can be expensive. I say, “can be” because they really don’t have to be as pricey as many fireworks companies claim they are. Besides that, there are often hidden fees tacked on to the total cost of a firework, making the purchase even bigger than it was before! Many people often feel bamboozled yet helpless, due to the fact that good fireworks aren’t always available to everyone all year long.

Assassin By Day

by Tessa Robertson

Genre: Thriller

What would you do if the mystery to your mother’s death lay with your employer?

After years of unanswered questions, Mishka Vald sets out to uncover the skhodka’s involvement in her past. What she doesn’t expect is to join forces with men who push her to become a double-agent and confirm her future. While hunting down leads, the ruthless assassin realizes a life in the shadows is the only way for her to protect those she loves.

For Mishka, forbidden love is worth the pain when it comes to Eddie Harper, a military man turned cop. Her affection waivers when duty comes first and she joins forces with an elite Russian soldier, Alexei Petrovich. With a blackmailer threatening her school love, she seeks refuge with a fellow assassin, Nickolas Volkov. And when pushed too far, she’s ushered to a secure location…and straight into the arms of mysterious handyman, Dylan Kain. As the pieces fall into place, their mangled order reveals each man’s true intention. Whose deceit can she accept and whose will obliterate her?

All roads lead back to the woman she thought dead—her mother. Now, as weddings are crashed and alliances tested, Mishka uncovers a deadly game and the players involved. Her heart, once unable to budge, is thrust into action, but which man can keep her soul intact?
