SparkPress But Not Forever: A Novel
Book SynopsisCould she be everything you aren't, but somehow—still be you? It’s the year 2015 and Sonnet McKay is the daughter of a globe-trotting diplomat, home for the summer from her exotic life. Everything would be perfect if not for her stunning sister, whose bright star has left her in the shadows. In 1895, Emma Sweetwine is trapped in a Victorian mansion, dreaming of wings to fly her far from her mother, who gives her love to her sons, leaving nothing for her daughter. Fate puts them in the same house at the same moment, 120 years apart, and the identical fifteen-year-olds are switched in time. In their new worlds, Sonnet falls in love with a boy, Emma falls in love with a life, and astonishing family secrets are revealed. Torn, both girls want to still go home— but can either one give up what they now have? But Not Forever is an enchanting story of love and longing, and the heart's ultimate quest to find where it belongs.Trade Review2019 Nautilius Book Awards Silver Winner in Young Adult Fiction 2019 Readers' Favorite Awards Bronze Medal Winner in Children/Preteen 2019 IPPY Silver Medal Winner in Juvenile/Young Adult Issues 2019 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Silver Medal Award in Young Adult Fiction 2019 Independent Publisher Silver Medal Award in Juvenile/Young Adult Fiction 2019 International Book Awards, Finalist, Fiction: Young Adult 2019 Foreword Indies Finalist in Young Adult Fiction Shortlisted for the CAC2018 Chanticleer International Book Award in Young Adult Fiction “Von Schleh uses the time-travel devise to illustrate robust interior lives for her characters, and in the end, their romantic and familial verisimilitude enhances an already fabulous twist. Love and equality shape the past and future in this captivating tale . . . ” ―Kirkus Reviews “Romance and humor blend into family drama and time travel fun as Jan Von Schleh explores the past, balancing two vastly different timelines. . . . But Not Forever is a stunning coming-of-age journey that keeps the page turning.” —Seattle Book Review “I stayed up well past my bedtime, devouring this charming, vividly imagined time-travel story. Jan Von Schleh plumbs the drama of her twin heroines’ dilemma with evocative period details, a cast of fully realized characters, and lots and lots of heart.” —Pam McGaffin, author of The Leaving Year “Outstanding. I hadn’t intended to stay up late, but, honestly your story is just so good, I had to finish it.” —Sam Morton, author of Jericho Road “From the heart-thumping opening lines of But Not Forever, one begins a thrilling journey from 2015 to 1895 and back again. Set in an abandoned mansion in the romantically named place, Monte Cristo, Jan Von Schleh has a beautiful, fresh style that deftly straddles the two eras.” —Rohini Sunderam writing as Zohra Saeed, author of Desert Flower “Lush, poignant, enchanting. Sonnet and Emma, and their intertwining stories, grabbed me from the start and wouldn’t let me go.” —Julia Inserro, author of Nonni’s Moon “But Not Forever is a magical time-traveling adventure that captivates readers from the start. Von Schleh’s sparkling prose sets the stage for the thrilling, intertwining journeys of Sonnet and Emma. Doppelgangers born into separate worlds, both are forced to face family dysfunction and reexamine societal conventions. Love and heartache cross over generations while universe forces and unbreakable family ties are clearly at work in this page-turning tale.” —Heather Cumiskey, award-winning author of I Like You Like This “If you can't get enough of all the unexplained magic in Once Upon a Time, this June release is one you'll want to keep an eye out for.” —PopSugar “Doppelgangers separated by twelve decades exchange places in this deftly intertwined fish out of water tale from debut author Jan Von Schleh. Magical and fast-moving, But Not Forever challenges social conventions, celebrates friendship, and demonstrates the resilience of love with an unflinching compassion which is sure to delight.” —Mindy Tarquini, award-winning author of The Infinite Now and Hindsight

Ink Monster Off Planet
Book SynopsisFrom USA Today Bestselling Author Aileen Erin Maité Martinez has always yearned for more than waitressing in a greasy diner, especially when most people have left the polluted ruins of Earth behind for a better life on other planets. It's not just working at the diner that's making life hard for her. Being a half-human, half-alien girl has never been trickier. With the corporate government hunting down the last of her father's alien Auanare race living on Earth, hiding her growing special abilities has become a full-time job on its own. Every minute Maité stays on Earth is one minute closer to getting caught. The stress is almost more than she can bear, and when a fancy Space Tech officer gets handsy with her at the diner, she reacts without thinking. Breaking the officer's nose wasn't her smartest move. Now she's faced with three years forced labor on the volcano planet, Abbadon. With the job she's slotted for, it may as well have been a death sentence. It doesn't take Maité long before she realizes there's more to the mining on Abbadon than Space Tech has let on. As she makes unlikely allies, Maité uncovers Space Tech's plot to nuke the Aunare homeworld. The firepower stored in Abbadon's warehouses is more than enough to do the job ten times over. As the clock ticks, Maité knows that if she can't find a way to stop Space Tech, there will be an interstellar war big enough to end all life in the universe. There's only one question: Can she stop the total annihilation of humanity without getting herself killed in the process?

Imbrifex Books Travelers: A Freaks Novel
Book SynopsisFalling in love. Evading the authorities. Chasing the rabbits. Now high school sophomores, the self-styled “Freaks” are back in class in quiet Quapaw City, Arkansas. They grapple with the ordinary challenges of everyday teen life: cliques, cars, and crushes. While everything appears normal on the surface, looks have rarely been more deceiving. A secret government task force—fully aware of the unusual powers the Freaks have acquired—is determined to capture them. Even as the mysterious Baltar Sterne shares ancient wisdom and offers hope, a new menace silently emerges in the woods outside of town. Clever, inexorable, and far more lethal than the Freaks’ first superhuman foe, this traveler from another world possesses powers that can only be described as godlike. The Freaks and their town will be tested in horrific ways they are powerless to predict or even imagine.Trade Review“Riley weaves explorations of anger issues and budding romance as well as forthrightly confronted themes of racial, religious, and class conflict.”—Kirkus Book Review"Travelers is interesting, thought provoking, and adds an unexpected emotional layer as the Freaks continue their journey to adulthood.”—Don Sauer, PopCultureGuy.com“Riley possesses a rare, writerly ability to remain in the moment once the action heats up.

Intriguing and surprising supporting characters give depth to a somber story that begs for a sequel... A must-have for all libraries and fans of sci-fi." —School Library Journal "A terrifying glimpse into what could be at the end of the path America is on today. Castle does an amazing job transporting us into the future—too great of a job." —Atia Abawi, Peabody Award-winning foreign correspondent and author of A Land of Permanent Goodbyes "Jacqui Castle's new novel sets the hook in a wickedly-quick heartbeat. Not only does her eerily prescient story keep that hook in place throughout, it often leads to moments where you feel a chill that's driven not only by her words, but also by the words we hear in the news and social media every day." —Mike Rich, author of Skavenger's Hunt and screenwriter of The Rookie, Radio, and Finding Forrester "Castle paints a well-developed world in a realistic future with a pair of unlikely heroes you want to cheer for. There are no easy victories in this dark, gritty dystopian that checks all the right boxes." —David Estes, bestselling author of The Dwellers saga and The Fatemarked epic "The Seclusion is the best science fiction book I have read in years." —Nick Ludington, Former Bureau Chief, The Associated Press

Book SynopsisBogbrush seeks adventure on his family cow, while educating the readerBogbrush, grandson of the fabled Bumrash, is a mighty warrior from the frozen north. He is a giant of a lad, with rippling muscles and a powerful sword-arm. He wears chain-mail underwear and a helmet with really big horns. Unfortunately, he’s also very stupid. Mistaking-the-family-cow-for-a-monster kind of stupid. But Bogbrush is determined to seek his fortune with undaunted courage (whatever that means). Crouched over his noble steed, Nobby, he sets forth on a heroic quest, traveling from the Temple of the Great Belch, where he battles a fiendish monster and encounters a terrifying gerbil, to a city in the far south where he attempts to pull a legendary axe from a rock and become the one true king. Fortunately, along the way, Bogbrush meets some fellow adventurers who have a little more between the ears. Together they must outwit a trickster, an evil sorcerer and tiny little ape-men, none of which is easy when you are “three buckets short of a cartload.” A sidesplitting epic adventure, Bogbrush the Barbarian also includes “educational” sidebars featuring words of the day, career tips, advice about guinea pigs and lots of other things you’ve probably never wondered about. You’ll even learn to speak like a barbarian — although, unlike Bogbrush, you’ll actually understand what you’re saying!
