Sinossi

Tidings is an anthology of freshly commissioned Irish Christmas writing - short stories and essays by some of Ireland's best writers, written on the theme of 'Christmas parties'. This astounding array of writers all also have one thing in common – they have all been published by The Lilliput Press, over our 40 years of publishing.   
Contributors include Elske Rahill; Lorcan Roche; Donal Ryan; Alice Lyons; Kevin Power; Michael Harding; Oona Frawley; Mike McCormack; Julia Kelly; Martina Devlin; Rob Doyle along with a remarkable new short story by a debut Irish writer.   
These are stories of family, remembrance, parties, passion, loss and humour that mark a beautiful addition to the uniquely rich trove of Irish writing around the Christmas period, and the perfect gift for readers of Irish literature. Celebrating 40 years in publishing, we wanted to look back on what has gone before while also looking forward to what is to come.

    When dragons are reborn into the world, the one thing driving them is their desire to claim me.  
    Dragons shouldn’t exist. Being a science major, I know the difference between facts and fantasy, but that doesn’t change the fact that dragons have awakened into the world, and my scent is driving them crazy. 
    Because, get this, I’m a female dragon. And the male dragons aren’t the only ones burning with heat. 
    Now, I’m on the run, with my two male best friends trying to find me, a sexy dragon trying to protect me, and an evil dragon on my tail. 
    Can I be reunited with my best friends and discover a way to be safe in this new world? Or will I go down in flames? 
    SURGE OF HEAT is the first book in a very steamy paranormal reverse harem romance. It has possessive men, a strong heroine, mating fun, forced proximity, friends to lovers, and enemies to lovers.

    'A well-crafted and brilliantly suspenseful novel that kept me guessing until the end.' Jo Bartlett 
    Mia is telling me a story. It’s about a princess, who lives on a street just like ours. I’m distracted for a moment by her little hand softly slipping into mine. My daughter. My angel. 
    But then she says something that snaps me back to reality. She says that there’s an old lady who’s a queen, and who’s kind. Except that she doesn’t treat the princess well. She punishes her and doesn’t let her eat anything… 
    Helen, my neighbour, has been so good to me. And more importantly, she’s amazing with the children, looking after them when I am struggling as a single parent, having escaped an abusive relationship. Surely this is just another story of Mia’s, just make believe? 
    But if it’s not, what if my own father was right, and I was never good enough to be a mother in the first place? 
    I tighten my grip on my sweet, trusting little girl’s hand. And vow I will do whatever it takes to protect her… 
    A heartbreaking and uplifting story about the choices a mother makes for the sake of her children, perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult, Emma Robinson and Kate Hewitt.Readers love A Good Enough Mother:

    A huntsman steals a princess and keeps her captive as his wife, but she escapes and returns to her father's castle beneath the mountain. The huntsman follows in hopes of reclaiming her, but there he is told that he must pass the seven tests of princehood to prove that he is worthy of having a princess as his wife. 
    These tests require him to demonstrate boldness, bravery, strength, endurance, compassion, understanding and virility. Only then will the king allow the huntsman to have the princess' hand, and failure to complete the tasks means his death. This an adult fairy tale romance with explicit sex scenes. 
    Authors note: I always enjoyed the swan maiden fairy tales but didn't like how they ended with the maiden getting away, so I wrote this story as a romance, combining the swan maiden theme with that of the enchanted princess stories.

    This recording has been digitally produced by Blake Pierce, using a synthesized version of an audiobook narrator’s voice under license. A killer leaves a mysterious signature—gloves found on every victim—while an ex-con FBI agent, unwilling to play by the rules, is on a rampage, and willing to stop at nothing until justice is found….
    
    “A masterpiece of thriller and mystery.”
    —Books and Movie Reviews, Roberto Mattos (re Once Gone)

    FOR US is book #6 in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller Once Gone (a free download) has received over 7,000 five star ratings and reviews.
    
    Superstar FBI Agent Morgan Cross was at the height of her career when she was framed, wrongly imprisoned, and sent to do 10 hard years in prison. Finally exonerated and set free, Morgan emerges from jail as a changed person—hardened, ruthless, closed off to the world, and unsure how to start again. When the FBI comes knocking, desperately needing Morgan to return and hunt down a killer who seems to be obsessed with drowning, Morgan is torn. 
    
    Morgan is not the same person, no longer willing to play by the rules, and will stop at nothing this time. In a non-stop thriller, it will be a deadly cat and mouse chase between a diabolical killer and an ex-con FBI agent who has nothing left to lose—with a new victim’s fate riding on it all.
    
    A page-turning and harrowing crime thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured FBI agent, the Morgan Cross series is a riveting mystery, packed with non-stop action, suspense, twists and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you flipping pages late into the night.
