The River's Secret
by Diann Cabler
# **A MEMORY OF SAM** Luke stood alone at the riverbank, watching the Mississippi move beneath the pale morning light.The water was different today. Or maybe he was. Since returning to Belle Rive, he had found himself remembering things he'd spent years trying to forget. His father's voice. The smell of tobacco on his work shirt. The way Sam McCall would stand on the porch at dusk, staring toward the river as though the water had answers no one else could hear. And then there was the conversation with Miss Clara. Luke closed his eyes. He could still hear her voice. *"There were two of them, Luke."* She had spoken those words quietly, almost reluctantly. *"Two men came after your daddy."* Luke remembered the way her hands had trembled in her lap. *"I know one of them."* "Simmons?" *"Snake Eye Simmons."* She nodded. *"Yes. Snake Eye. I'd know that man anywhere."* Luke opened his eyes and stared across the river. He remembered asking her the question that had haunted him ever since. *"Who was the other man?"* Miss Clara had looked away. *"I don't know."* At the time, Luke had pressed her. "You're sure?" Her eyes were filled with tears. *"I saw two men. I heard their voices. I knew Simmons. But the other one..."* She had shaken her head. *"I never saw his face clearly enough to swear who he was."* Luke remembered the frustration he'd felt. He had wanted a name. A second name. Someone to blame. Someone to find. But Miss Clara had only given him the truth she possessed. She knew **Snake Eye Simmons** had been there. She knew there had been another man. But she had never known for certain who that man was. Luke let out a slow breath. For so long, he'd carried the second man around in his mind like a ghost with a face he couldn't see. Perhaps that was all the man would ever be.A shadow. A voice. A pair of footsteps disappearing into the darkness. Luke reached into his coat and touched the folded letter his father had left behind. He had learned many things since coming home.Some truths had hurt. Others had healed wounds he hadn't even known were there. But one thing had finally become clear. He didn't need to invent an answer simply because he wanted one. Miss Clara had told him what she knew. Nothing more. Nothing less. **Snake Eye Simmons had been one of the men responsible for his father's death.** The identity of the second man remained unknown. And perhaps, Luke thought, that was where the story needed to end. For now. He looked down at the river. The current carried a small piece of driftwood past his boots. Luke watched it disappear around the bend. "Some secrets aren't ready to be found," he whispered. Then he turned toward town. He had no idea how wrong he was. Because beneath the muddy water of the Mississippi, something was already waiting for him. Something that would make him question everything he thought he knew. And this time..the river was going to give up its secret.

The Burn Pile
by Scott Ivey
For fifty years, Earl has known how to make things disappear. At the far edge of his farm, where the grass gives way to red clay, the burn pile has swallowed a lifetime of old papers, worn clothes, forgotten belongings—and things better left unnamed. Four days after burying his wife, Maren, Earl returns to the pile to honor one of her final requests: **Don’t let it go cold. There’s still things that need burning.** But something beneath the ash refuses to burn. And as Earl begins to dig, the past he's spent half a century reducing to smoke starts giving things back. **Some things survive the fire. Some things wait.**

Shattered Myths
by J. Magdaleno
**Magick was never meant to remain hidden forever.** For generations, seven ancient bloodlines have guarded powers older than recorded history, bound by uneasy alliances, inherited obligations, and secrets that could reshape the mortal world. At the center of those secrets is **Azure Creed**. Born into a legacy he never fully understood, Azure finds himself drawn deeper into a world of forbidden magick, immortal beings, ancient creatures, secret organizations, and family histories deliberately buried for centuries. What begins as a search for answers soon becomes something far more dangerous—a struggle over who should control magick, who deserves to wield it, and what happens when the old rules begin to collapse. But Azure is only one piece of a much larger story. Across decades and continents, the **Shattered Myths** series follows witches, immortals, supernatural creatures, covert agents, and the powerful families whose choices have quietly shaped history. Alliances shift. Legends prove dangerously real. Love complicates destiny. Events once dismissed as myth reveal themselves as fragments of a hidden truth. As the boundaries between worlds weaken, the consequences of the past begin reaching into the present—and every secret uncovered brings the world closer to a conflict that has been waiting generations to begin. **Some myths were created to explain the impossible. Others were created to keep it hidden.**

Lawless Empire
by Leila Matthews
**Power has a price. Love makes it deadly.** In the **Lawless Empire**, dangerous men rule through blood, fear, money, and consequence. They are killers, kingpins, heirs, enforcers, and monsters hiding behind expensive suits and untouchable names. Men who don’t forgive betrayal. Men who don’t surrender control. Then they meet the women they were never supposed to want. Women who challenge them, defy them, uncover their secrets—and become the one weakness their enemies are willing to exploit. With criminal empires at war, old debts resurfacing, betrayals closing in, and bodies piling up, love becomes more than dangerous. It becomes a liability. An obsession. A reason to kill. Each interconnected standalone delivers a new couple, a new threat, and a darker kind of devotion—where protection borders on possession, enemies become lovers, and choosing the wrong person could cost everything. **Because in this empire, love doesn’t save monsters.** **It gives them something worth destroying the world for.**

My Hell Hath No Fury
by Lura Mckinnon
A girl born in the early 60s learns that in life, there's not always going to be someone to save you. The story captures the resilience, strength, courage as well as ways to get even against people who have hurt her, or her friends, in comical actions. Her father George became her silent hero, and with his silent actions, taught her the ups and down in life. *Life taught me to be strong.* *The men who cheated on me...* *Well, they taught me to be creative.* People have asked me about the title of this book. Some assume it's about anger. Others think it's about revenge. It isn't. Wrath isn't always loud. Sometimes it's quiet. Sometimes it's walking away. Sometimes it's refusing to let someone else's betrayal define your worth. And sometimes... It's a harmless prank that reminds a person they should have treated you better in the first place. I never believed in cruelty. Life had already shown me enough of that. But I did believe in consequences. Especially the kind that could make you laugh years later. If that's wrath... Then I suppose I'm guilty.

I, Octavia
by Jeff B White
Octavia survived banishment to the crushing depths of the Trench by carving away the merman she was expected to be. She's managed to build a life for herself where she is genuinely happy and able to give back to those less fortunate than her. And what does she get for it? Deadnamed by her brother-in-law and blackmailed by her trashy niece. She gives her niece legs in exchange for her voice so that the stupid girl can go to the surface and try to bag a prince. But the girl's beauty was a trick played by the distortion of water. She ended up a drooling mute with bad hair and trollop vibes. So Octavia says goodbye to her hips and watches her own breasts fade as she stuffs herself into a man shaped suit and heads to the surface to help the helpless. But the Prince is a Queen, so to speak and he has other plans. Based on Andersen's *The Little Mermaid*, this campy and irreverent fairy tale retelling pays homage to John Waters and the late Harris Glenn Milstead with a girthy celebration of drag and filth that is not the fish story that you're used to.
