'Not Without You (A Silver Creek Novel)' by Dianne Venetta #SpringIntoBooks

Not Without You (A Silver Creek Novel)

Grad student, Lisa Richardson, scours the high country in search of her beloved boreal toad. The amphibian is in danger of extinction, a fate she is determined to change. Single-minded in her focus, Lisa doesn’t realize that she’s being followed by a mysterious stranger.

Enter McIntyre Walsh. Ex-marine with a heart of gold, this man lives and breathes duty. Protection. Content with his self-exile on a mountaintop in Colorado, he inadvertently witnesses a female hiker in danger, a situation he cannot ignore yet is unable to rectify. When their paths cross, Lisa and Walsh refuse to stray from their avowed goals and carry on–despite the other.

It isn’t until a killer ramps up his game that both are forced to relent. Battling the rugged terrain of the Rocky Mountains and an undeniable attraction between them, Lisa and Walsh must work together against the odds if they intend to get off the mountain alive.




About Dianne -

Dianne lives in Central Florida with her husband, two children and part-time Yellow Lab--Cody-body! When not whacking away at her keyboard crafting her next novel you'll find her in their organic garden chasing grasshoppers and plucking hornworms all while drawing wild analogies between kids and plants and men. Definitely men.

A girl's gotta have fun, right?

When she's not knee-deep in dirt or romance, Dianne contributes garden advice for various websites and volunteers in school gardens (a crazy existence to be sure). But at the end of the day, if she can inspire someone to stop and smell the roses--or rosemary!—kiss their child and spouse good-night, be kind to a neighbor and Mother Earth, then she's done all right.

Tanis Richard from M.D. Cooper's 'Outsystem' shares her Top 10 annoyances and favorite things #SpringIntoBooks

In the 42nd century, seventy is the new twenty, and at seventy-four years old, Tanis Richards is still a spring chicken. However she still knows what she likes and doesn’t like. Don’t doubt for a second that she’ll be afraid to tell you as well.

Here are her top ten annoyances and favorite things.

The Top 10 Things that Annoy Tanis Richards

10. Emoticons over the Link.
9. Sloppy salutes from Marsian military forces.
8. Whenever Joe acts like pilots are superior to everyone else.
7. Angela, her internal AI, telling her “I told you so.”
6. Being asked what she thought of the soccer game between Mars and High Terra.
5. Weak coffee.
4. Admiral Anderson pretty much every time she sees him.
3. People with green hair and extra arms.
2. Getting another limb shot off.
1. No mayo on her B.L.T.

Tanis Richards’ Top 10 Favorite Things (that she’ll admit to)

10. A well crafted set of Armor.
9. Terran Marines.
8. (not) Ballroom dancing.
7. Bob’s sense of humor.
6. Faking being awake during meetings with a holo projection.
5. A good B.L.T. where the bread is toasted just right.
4. Hot tubs.
3. Solving problems and hunting down criminals.
2. Joe, just don’t expect her to get mushy about him.
1. Kicking some serious ass (usually the aforementioned criminals).

Outsystem

Major Richards needs to get out of the Sol System

Demoted by the military and hung out to dry, the media labels her the Butcher of Toro. Despite her soiled record, Tanis still one of the best military counter-insurgency officers in the Terran Space Force.

And they need her to find the terrorists responsible for trying to destroy the GSS Intrepid, a massive interstellar colony ship in the final phases of construction at the Mars Outer Shipyards.

It’ll be her ticket out of the Sol system, but Tanis discovers she is up against more than mercenaries and assassins. Major corporations and governments have a vested interest in ensuring the Intrepid never leaves Sol, ultimately pitting Tanis against factions inside her own military.

With few friends left, Tanis will need to fight for her life to get outsystem.

Buy on Amazon

The colony ship Intrepid is falling into a star.

The ship’s AI has lost control of the engines and core systems. Battling a saboteur who strives to isolate him, his last act is to wake Colonel Tanis Richards from stasis.

Tanis finds herself alone on a dying ship, unable to contact the AI. She must discover what has happened and save the Intrepid from burning up in the star’s angry red light.

Even if she is successful, the journey to the colony world of New Eden is just beginning. With decades of travel ahead, she will have to find a path in the darkness.
