Free Book - Trash Talk (K)

Trash Talk, by Robert Gussin, is free in the Kindle store, courtesy of Oceanview Publishing.

Book Description
Football, baseball, basketball, hockey pro athletes revolt!!!

Too many fights - too many problems -lousy image!!!

Commissioners fed up - players angry at mandated, educational seminar attendance!!! But that’s what happened, and the commissioners aren’t backing down. All pro athletes have to attend a course or seminar unrelated to sports every year. Dark days for the athletes until one of them sees an ad for the upcoming S.E.S. “Trash Talk” symposium. How perfect is that? None of the athletes knew, or even cared, what S.E.S. was, but trash talk was their specialty. Word of the meeting spread among the athletes like wildfire. They could not apply fast enough. The annual Environmentalist Society Meeting, hosted by the Sarasota Environmental Society (S.E.S.), will be a surprise of a lifetime when the world of professional athletes collides with the world of professional environmentalists in an explosion of laughter. What happens next is worth the price of admission!

Ladykiller, by Lawrence Light and Meredith Anthony, is free in the Kindle store, courtesy of Oceanview Publishing.

Book Description
In the city that never sleeps, evil is wide awake.

From the bright lights of Times Square to the dark alleys of New York, the Ladykiller is at work – and at prey.

Four women savagely murdered on the mean streets of New York. The Ladykiller leaves no trail, no clues.

The pressure is on for NYPD detective Dave Dillon: either he solves the crime, or he can kiss his job goodbye. When Dave joins forces with Megan Morrison, a beautiful young social worker, the search for a cold-hearted killer leads to a hot romance. But a host of forces threaten to intrude: Nita, Megan’s jealous mentor, would delight in derailing the romance between Dave and Megan, as would Jamie, a determined detective with her own not-so-hidden agenda. And Dave’s shadowy past is never far behind. The clock is ticking for Dave and Megan. Will they close in on the shocking truth behind the crimes, or will it close in on them?

In the world of the Ladykiller, passion can turn deadly in a New York minute.

The Castro Gene, by Todd Bucholz, is free in the Kindle store, courtesy of Oceanview Publishing.

Book Description
After killing a man in the ring, Luke Braden quits boxing. While toiling as a security guard and yearning to reinvent himself, Luke is swept up into the high-flying domain of Paul Tremont.

Tremont, the hottest hedge fund hand around, has a penchant for the dramatic – and a disquieting need to control. Being Tremont’s protégé has its perks – Luke trades in his ratty basement apartment for a penthouse view, his gym clothes for designer suits. But there are strings attached – and Tremont is pulling the strings.

Why does Tremont need a washed-up boxer? The answer lies not in what Luke is, but who he is: Luke Braden is the only man who can execute Tremont’s diabolical scheme.

Fidel Castro risks one last trip to the U.S. And one man will be forced to stand in his way.

Luke is in for the fight of his life – or the fight for his life.
