PREORDER ALERT: Books coming soon in April!
It’s that time of the month when we let you know about all the great books coming up in April that are already available for preorders!
April showers bring May flowers. But you know what April showers also bring? Plenty of time to read books! If it’s raining, you can’t do yard work. Sure, you could do housework, but we all need to use books to procrastinate that. You know I’m right. I won’t even ask.
Not only do we have a bunch of new releases this month, but there are four new series launching this month, one of which is not on preorder yet. If you want to hear more about the new series, check out this blog post from the end of March. It has all sorts of information on them. Which of the new series are you looking forward to?

Another weekend has disappeared in the blink of our eyes and the beginning to yet another week filled with great releases is upon us. Did you get caught up on reading last week? I sure didn’t, and with the number of books releasing this week, I doubt I will any time soon.
This is one of those weeks where you get to hear from me a little more often than usual because it’s the first week of the month and that means I get to look at all the great books coming out in April. I also get to remind you of the four new series coming this month. I can’t wait.
Today, I get to share with you the books launching, but also an interview with one of our staff members. Find out who below! Now for the books! I have 8 incredible books launching this week:
- New Rules For Battles
- Secrets All Unfold
- Welcome To The Jungle
- Cast of the Die
- One Mistake Too Many

This Week’s New Releases
Title: New Rules for Battles
Series: Dead Evil Mercenary Corps Book 2
Release Date: 04/04/2022
Starting a business is hard, especially when making your living requires staying alive long enough to get paid.
Our troublesome trio, Chill, Ivan, and Kortez haven’t exactly hit the big time yet, but they’ve got dreams. Big ones.
But big dreams, big plans, and big guns mean that they’re looking at some big problems. When you’re establishing a mercenary company, let’s just say the complications start to pile up like shell casings.
Making their daily bread with the barrel of a gun is hard enough, but what happens when somebody starts a trade war and innocent people get caught in the mix?
It’s time for three well armed amigos to misbehave in pyrotechnic fashion.
Lock and load, as the DEMC dives fists-first into more trouble and mayhem than you can shake a rail rifle at!
Title: Secrets All Unfold
Series: Gallows Hill Academy: Year Three
Release Date: 04/05/2022
I never feared flying. It’s the falling part that sucks.
Mom took everything from me in my first year of high school. In the second, I lost almost everything I’d built since. With my best friend Ed’s help, I spent the summer getting up again.
Ed’s the chosen one in some ancient prophecy and he’s changed for good. That makes sense, but I’m not yet sure if it’s for the better. With my brother sidelined in the hospital, and all our other friends preparing for both exams and war in the faerie realm, I’ve got to help him figure it out alone.
But all that’s a piece of cake compared to the third, more personal threat. My murderous mother and her enslaved packmates, including some of our teachers. Meeting the challenges they present means beating enormous odds, and I’m not sure I have enough momentum to fully escape her orbit.
Gravity was made for defying. But am I strong enough to do it?

Or death.
And if that wasn’t a big enough pain for Katie, the military comes calling for help.
Title: Cast of the Die
Series: Tomb of Malevolent Evil
Release Date: 04/06/2022
Defeating evil should have returned Terry, Jewel, Mandy, and Morgan to their world. Right?
Their hope was that winning would send them home.

This world isn’t done with them just yet.
Level up or crash out…
The Tomb of Malevolent Evil opening elsewhere. Soon undead and demons will pour across the land, devouring everything in their path.The four friends must step up to prevent it, orthey’ll never be able to return home.

Title: One Mistake Too Many
Series: Pain and Agony Book 6
Release Date: 04/07/2022
History is written by the victors, and the powerful rewrite the rules in their favor.
These are simple facts that the dysfunctional have decided to accept, if not embrace.
After all, what’s the point of fighting something as fundamental as gravity?
The end result is always a fall.
When it comes to Pain and Agony, conforming is just not an option.
Challenges to these age-old proverbs will be taken on as the powerful, shifting on top of the pile, seek to stamp out any nonconformity.
There’s nothing left for Pain and Agony to do but punch hard enough to bring it all down.
Agencies will tremble, dynasties will fall, and no matter what, there is going to be a hell of a fireworks display before all is said and done.
What’s the worst that can happen?

And the only ones who can defeat them are the good riders—the Dragon Elite.
But fighting those who refuse to play by rules can be tricky.
It’s difficult for Sophia Beaufont to get the upper hand when she refuses to loosen her morals.
That’s exactly what makes her a Dragon Elite though.
However, even if you’ve got angels on your side and fight for good, it doesn’t mean you’ll be successful.
The Rogue Riders won’t stop until they’ve won.
Or they are put down.
Can Sophia stop the evil riders while also not starting a war that ends dragons forever? Or will they be forced to fight until there is no one left?

New allies means new trouble.
The team welcomes a new assault infantry squad aboard the ship. They reconsider their position when the hard-earned bond of Cyrus and Kat is strained by soldiers who don’t appreciate having to work with a civilian with no military background.
There’s not a lot of time for Kat to whip the boys into shape before they hit alien territory.
But is it already too late to stop the terror?
With dangers lurking on the frontier, the crew needs to pull together. Humanity’s alien enemies have their own plans and are prepared to kill anyone who gets in their way.
You all know her as the person who keeps all of LMBPN’s various Facebook pages and groups running like a well-oiled cog, but she does much more than that. You also know she’s a coffee addict. She’s agreed to be my first victim…I mean subject… for an interview. (Look don’t tell her I called her a victim. She might come kick my behind. I’m more scared of Kelly than I am of BA and that says something…)
Get to Know LMBPN Staff: Kelly O’Donnell
Coffee… it’s what fuels many of us. It keeps what little of our sanity left in check and prevents us from committing murder. For one of LMBPN’s staff members, it’s what the fans relentlessly tease her about. But she’s also an avid reader…

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kelly since the end of 2018. And we’ve gotten to know each other fairly well. When I have a question about images needed for graphics, upcoming releases or other things we’re working on behind the scenes, like the Timeline, Kelly is who I talk to. Much like Kelly, I appreciate coffee and reading too. Kelly was one of the first people that came to mind when I suggested interviews with staff and authors and she graciously agreed.
Without further adieu, let’s get to know the maven of coffee, Kelly O’Donnell. And anything in italics and in parenthesis is my commentary. Enjoy!
How were you introduced to LMBPN?
I saw a recommendation for Death Becomes Her on Amazon.
What do you do for LMBPN?
Wow, it really depends on the time of day lol. I supervise the JIT and Beta reader teams, supervise the Facebook admin team, coordinate the various cover artists’ schedules and act as the go-between between the artists and the authors. I also act as ‘Keeper of the Schedules’ to keep all the balls in the air. (What she really means is -everything-.)
What do you like most about LMBPN’s books?
I love the way the stories are character-based. They all have a strong sense of justice as an underlining theme.
What are your favorite 5 series LMBPN has published?
Only five… really? You don’t ask for much, do ya?
Ok. Let’s see. In no particular order:
- The Kurtherian Gambit of course, totally amazing series
- Myth of the Dragon is definitely climbing my favorites list with each book
- Chronicles of an Urban Druid
- Metal Legion cause heck yeah Metal Never Dies!
- The Great Insurrection
What are your 5 all-time favorite series (does not have to be limited to LMBPN)?
Oh lordy. How can I choose? This is like asking me to choose a favorite child. (I thought about asking her about her favorite child but… there’s not enough coffee to make me that brave.)
What are your favorite genres?
SciFi, Military SciFi, Fantasy, Urb… you know it might be easier to list what I don’t read. (I’m fairly certain she reads everything.)
What are you reading right now?
Hehe – So I am currently reading <redacted.> Wish I could tell you but alas, I can’t since it’s a beta. (She’s such a tease…)
If you could pick one series you’d like to see more books in, which would it be?
Hmmm. Also a hard one. I’d definitely like to see more Kurtherian – BA’s storyline. I wasn’t ready for it to end. Yes, I know more Kurtherian Universe books are coming but still. They’re not BA.
Who is your favorite character and from what book by which author?
Can’t really answer this one as I have too many and oftentimes for different reasons.
If you could pick ONE supernatural/paranormal/alien creature that could be real, what would it be and why?
Oh heck no! We have enough going on without doing this to ourselves!
If you could pick one character from a fictional world to come to life in our world, who would it be and why?
Bethany Anne. I, like many, many others, would love to see her kick butt.
What is your favorite movie?
I’m so far behind in movie watching that I can only tell you that one that I watch whenever I see it’s on – The Lord of the Rings.
What is your favorite TV series?
I don’t watch TV.
Tell us a bit about your hobbies.
I read and play with grandkids.
What is your dream vacation?
Toss up between beach or mountains. Plenty ‘o coffee, a snuggly blanket, and my Kindle
Anything else you’d like to add for the fans?
Keep being as awesome as you are and thank you for the laughs in the different groups!
Many thanks to Kelly for taking the time out of her day to answer these questions! Who would you like to see interviewed next? Drop a line to ranger.tabitha@lmbpn.com to let me know!

She just doesn’t know it…yet! A dragon raised by humans, in the human world. After graduating from the police academy, she’s dropped right into the ranks of Detroit’s elite SWAT team. A rookie, in SWAT? Unheard of. But what the dragons want, they get. The reasons behind their machinations become clear as her dragon powers begin to surface.

Keeper of the Waters:
My name is Jenna Solitaire and everything I thought I knew about myself, my family, and my future is wrong. My life is not my own. It never has been. I just didn’t know it―until now…
Having mastered the power of the Board of Air, Jenna travels to Jerusalem to find the Board of Water. She is accompanied by Simon Monk, who seeks the Boards on behalf of the Vatican. Jenna doesn’t trust Simon, but he’s her only source of information about the Boards. In Jerusalem, Jenna meets Saduj, a local guide who claims he can help them find the Board they seek. Simon is suspicious, but Jenna finds herself strangely attracted to Saduj. Jenna must find the Board before it awakens and causes unimaginable destruction. But will she lose her heart—and possibly her life—in the process?
Scorpion’s Fury:
Who kicks off the battle? Cannon fodder. Soften up the enemy. The Metal Legion. Old mechs crewed by former prisoners with nowhere else to go. They bear the brunt of the pain. But they don’t want to die. Never fight fair when fighting for your life. This is the motto of the Metal Legion. They fight to win.
The mechs stand tall, or crawl, or run, or scamper. A dozen different designs, held together by rough welds and sheer willpower. But the soldiers within, like Xi Bao who refuses to give up. Taking her armor underground, she finds the enemy, in numbers far greater than she was told. Knee deep in the war, her crew gives their old mech new vigor for one last chance at glory. Victory or death! Fight to survive.

Rowdy:
Thrust to the mercy of the Mississippi river, thirteen-year-old Rowdy floats safely away as he watches the smoke rise from his burning farmhouse. His father, dead. His brother, dead. Both gunned down in front of him by a murderous gang of bandits. Now alone in the world, his perilous journey of survival begins, challenging and shaping him into the young man his father would want him to become. Pulled from the waters, he is given a chance by a lone river Captain and his mate. Working the trade routes between St. Louis and New Orleans, he learns to navigate safe passage. Rowdy has grown strong working the river but must use his wit as well as his strength to confront a bullying crewma and survive a surprise attack by river pirates. Blood, bullets, and tears bring Rowdy’s world to a showdown. Fighting for what was right is his code, living life for others becomes his way, and staring danger in the face is what he must do if he can truly be Wild and Mean, Sharp and Keen
In Honor Bound:
In 1917, three law school graduates are on their way to register for the draft in World War I. En route to the recruiting office, they meet classmate J. Edgar Hoover, who invites them all to join him in the U.S. Department of Justice, thereby serving their country without facing death in the trenches. Two—Aloysius Gantt and Declan O’Hara—agree, while the third, Gregory Jordan, goes on to join the U.S. Marines.
On the home front, Gantt and O’Hara join in roundups of suspected draft dodgers and later, while Jordan is hospitalized for wounds suffered at Belleau Wood, they follow Hoover’s lead into the Palmer raids, deporting alleged alien radicals to Russia.

Five heroines, five different challenges – will you join them?
If you’ve been struggling to catch up with your reading at the rate we’ve been releasing books, this might be the week to attempt to get caught up. There are only five books releasing this week. It’s not going to let me get caught up, but I can tell you fewer books means I can write the newsletter a lot quicker. (The more books there are, the longer it takes for me to get it put together.)
It also means I can use this week to finalize a bunch of articles to come your way over the next few weeks. First up on the list, you’ll get to know our favorite coffee-drinking staffer better. Look forward to her interview next week. A few authors need to be wrangled to answer their questions, then I have a few other article writers to talk with and finalize articles.
You know, because we love all of you and want you to check out some other things we’re working on.
But now, I am guessing you want to hear about the books. I have 5 wonderful books launching this week, and one is already out. What a great way to start the week!
Enjoy!

These 9 heroes are ready to save the day. Are you?
Happy Monday! This week is a busy week with all the new releases and re-releases we have coming your way. I’m not sure how some of our staff that handles social media manage all of it, especially on weeks like this one where we have NINE, yes NINE, books releasing. I can’t imagine how they keep it all organized (okay, okay, I can, I just don’t WANT to).
This week also marks the spring solstice tomorrow. That means from this point on, the days will be getting longer and longer. More sunlight is a good thing, right? Unless you’re a hacker who stays inside all the time. But I still need to get my tan going, so there’s that.
Not only do we have the nine books releasing this week, we’re also teasing you with the four new series launching next month and a sneak peek of the new series launching this week. Check out all of that below!
Here are the 9 new releases coming your way this week:
- Valorous Effort
- Rebellion
- Sit Down Shut Up and Pull The Trigger
- Rogue Agents Unbroken
- Family Squabbles
- Integrity Ascends
- The Masked One
- The Ruthless Negotiator
- Double Tap
Enjoy!

On the one hand, Terry is doing great. He has awesome friends, more money than he could possibly use, and he managed to take down a huge threat to humanity.
On the other hand, while he enjoys being on Earth in general, he doesn’t have magic. Or…does he?
Can he find a way to get what he wants?
Intrigued by the possibilities, Terry goes on the hunt to see if he can generate a source of power his body can convert into magic.
The only problem is, Angelina and Charley are worried he might be thinking about getting the heck off this hunk of celestial rock, and, well, they would miss him.
No one could have prepared Terry for the strength of the bonds humans can form.
Terry’s search for an energy source leads him down some middling paths. He delves into the deep web, where he discovers some people are trying to destroy the global power grid.
Not. On. His. Watch.
Will Terry be able to navigate the complexities of human relationships while preventing a global disaster and solving his magic dilemma?
He might have bitten off more than he can chew this time.

Four spectacular new series are coming your way in April!
April showers bring May flowers. It also brings time to read more books since it tends to rain more so those flowers can bloom.
This month, we have four new series coming your way. If you’re looking for a mix of science fiction, urban fantasy and a little bit of urban cozy mystery, then this will be a great month for you. Of course, one of these series you saw in the March preview. It got pushed back to April to accommodate editing and a few other things going on behind the scenes.
Most of the new series release the last week of the month, but one comes out on the 15th. Learn more about what comes out when below!

If you like urban fantasy with a side of mystery…
We like to call this an urban cozy. It’s got urban fantasy and cozy mystery mashed up. It features a teenage witch solving mysteries in her home town. A little bit like Nancy Drew, but with magic.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a lot more about the series than that, but I’m sure the upcoming book sales pitch and snippet will be a great way to tease all of you into picking it up!
