Video Trailer: Love’s Everlasting Song

Rebecca Gordon never believed in “happily-ever-after” but she had no idea how far her marriage had crumbled until she walked in on her husband with another woman. Unable to save her marriage, she decides to focus on her career and win the horse show that would put her ranch on the map. Wanting to use the latest, chic music for her competition, she flies to L.A. where she is to meet with the managers of Luke Grayson, the hottest singers of the decade.

The physical attraction between the two is immediate but Rebecca struggles with her pending divorce and need to be successful in her career. As Rebecca begins to open her heart and believe in her future, her past won’t leave her alone and threatens to destroy everything she has worked for. Can she fight to put her past to rest and begin a new life or will this be her swan song?

  Love’s Everlasting Song, by RaeAnn Hadley is available from Amazon.

New Release Aimed at Helping Children’s Charities

Author Vickie Johnstone contacted Indies Unlimited to announce a new release that is aimed at helping children’s charities. Day of the Living Pizza is one of the stories included in The Gage Project –  put together by Inknbeans Press for Gage Bailey (author Nickie Storey-Bailey’s son).

Vickie’s story is part of it. “I’ve put it free (waiting for Amazon to make it so) to help drive traffic to the anthology. I hope it works! Until it goes free, all profits to the kids’ charities,” she says.

You can find many enjoyable stories, jokes and poems for children in the main book: The Gage Project profits all go to charity. Happy reading!

Detective Smarts of Crazy Name Town has a problem. Doctor Boring and his receptionist have been bumped off, and the only clues at the scene are some olives, tomatoes, mushrooms and sprinkles of oregano. With the town folk dropping like flies and strange figures stumbling down the streets, Officer Dewdrop has an idea.

Written especially for Gage Bailey and contained in the Gage Project book to raise money for children’s charities. All profits go to charity. Thank you for helping.
