Sweet red pepper jelly is a recipe that combines a sweet jelly with a hint of heat, to enhance the flavour. Goes well with a cheese, such as with a baked Camembert, or a bagel topped with cream cheese and jelly. Delicious!

Dave Higgins’ Review of the Van Helsing Paradox
Whoa! What a review from Dave Higgins for The Van Helsing Paradox! My latest dark fantasy novel that follows the life of a child, who grows up to hunt things that go bump in the night.
Review of the Van Helsing Paradox by Dave Higgins Here is an excerpt of the beginning of his review, and it gets better from there!
Chartres fuses ancient conspiracies within the Church with urban fantasy to create a fast-paced horror adventure that doesn’t lack for depth.
It’s obvious that Dave Higgins has not only read the book, but taken time to gain some insight. Be it the ramifications of faith on those who hunt, to the sacrifice hunters ultimately make; despite temptations that surround them outside of their own sanctuary. Of course, he really ends this review with a bang!
Overall, I enjoyed this novel greatly. I recommend it to readers seeking an engaging tale of vampire hunting or the complexities of saving humanity secretly.
Thank you very much for your great review! Are you curious about my work? Just click on Prose, to find a list of all my published works!

How to Get Your Readers to the Right Amazon Marketplace
Amazon is separated into regional marketplaces. This is why you will find sites like Amazon.com (United States), Amazon.ca (Canada), and Amazon.co.uk (United Kingdom). Not all goods can be purchased in a market outside of your own, and this extends to Kindle Ebooks. How does it work for readers sent to the wrong market? While the answer is nuanced, the end result is often lost sales.
How do we fix this? Here are four easy methods:

Quinn W. Buckland’s Review of the Van Helsing Paradox
Yay! A lovely review from Quinn W. Buckland on The Van Helsing Paradox. I’m glad he found the book to be an easy read, that my use of slang gave the story a hint of authenticity, and especially how he loved the ending! Best of all? He gave me a score of 9 out of 10 overall!
Please take the time to watch his review and subscribe. I’m sure more will be coming soon!
On a side note, it’s the same vampire throughout the story. However, her real name comes to light later on as the story develops.

Evelyn Reads The Taliesin Affair
I was fortunate to have The Taliesin Affair: Maliha Anderson’s First Case by Steve Turnbull to keep me company on my long flight back home! This author brings about an interesting take on Stream Punk, mainly that while technology in a post-Victorian era may have advanced by leaps, society has not.
The Taliesin Affair: Maliha Anderson’s First Case by Steve Turnbull In the shadows of the Great War, a clever young Indian girl named Maliha discovers a body in the library of a prestigious boarding school. How does a mixed-raced navigates through a world populated by royalty, the privileged, and wealthy? Is she up for the task? Read more to find out!
I loved this interchange of the fantastic mixed with the cold reality of the era. This book is highly recommended. While it stands alone, it does make for a great stepping stone for more works in the series!

Evelyn Reads Zero Gravity: Anna’s Affair
Zero Gravity: Anna’s Affair by author T.J. Conway is out of this world! This is a story about a lovers in space, and in one case an orgasm aided by a rocket sized vibrator.
Zero Gravity: Anna’s Affair by T.J. Conway It is clear that the author took a lot of time and care to research the subject. For me, that did a lot of lend credibility to the story, which in turn made it a hotter read. While a quick and easy read, this story offers more than just sex scenes. If you were ever curious about having sex in low Earth orbit, then this book is for you!
Highly recommended!

Evelyn Reads Blood Drops
Blood Drops by author W.B. Welch is more than just a collection of horror stories. Each take something familiar and adds just enough distilled horror to leave an impression lingering on your mind.
Blood Drops by W.B. Welch This book is a quick read, and features chapters that are of varying lengths. I found that the one to two page stories had the most impact overall. Every chapter is just the right length to have an effect, be it by leaving me stunned or looking over my shoulder just in case. This author has really mastered the art of prose!
I highly recommend this book, and look forward to reading new works from this author.

Evelyn Reads the Link Between Us
The post apocalyptic genre is a bit overplayed at times, especially if your catalyst involves zombies, disease, or a devastating war. The Link Between Us: Managing the Apocalypse by C.J. Boyle takes this tired premise and adds a new twist.
The Link Between Us: Managing the Apocalypse by C.J. Boyle This book starts out innocently enough. An accidental discovery about the origins of humanity ends up spreading a mutagenic pathogen that changes half the population. From that point on, it becomes clear that something will go wrong!
Sure enough, things do go sideways, and soon you get to know a cadre of fleshed out characters in the quest to survive. I enjoyed being there from day one, to witness these imperfect beings struggle to survive. That imperfection after all what makes them human.
The story is fast paced, well thought out, and filled with character development. You will get to know them, love them, and may even cry when things go wrong!
I look forward to reading more from this author in the near future.
