Book Tour + #Giveaway : The Unlikely Spy - by Sophie Schiller @SophieSchiller | #HistFic #Espionage #Thriller #RomanticSuspense

One woman on a hopeless mission in Panama.

How far will she go to help the Allies? 

The Unlikely Spy

by 

Sophie Schiller

Genre: Historical Spy Thriller

Casablanca  meets Notorious in a Hitchcock-style thriller of espionage, romance, adventure, and intrigue.

During the Great War in 1917, Emma Christensen is a young widow who returns to the islands to reclaim the life and the villa she left behind. When she discovers that her husband has disinherited her in favor of his young heir—an illegitimate son—she soon finds herself penniless. She is approached by Cornelius Smith, a businessman who offers her an alternative: infiltrate the suspicious Hamburg-American Line and spy on its nefarious leader, Julius Luckner, to gain valuable business intelligence for his firm. It doesn’t take long for Emma to realize that both Smith and Luckner are not as they seem. Close to the Allies but even closer to the enemy, Emma bravely engages in missions that could blow her cover at any moment. But with the Panama Canal at stake, how far will she go to help the Allies? A thriller in the style of Hitchcock that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

"A great read about a female spy during WWI...a really good, fast paced historical thriller." -Chelsie S., Vine Voice

A gripping and suspenseful World War I spy thriller from an accomplished thriller and historical adventure writer.

Emma picked up her bags and continued walking, feeling a great sense of unease. She had entered a dangerous game where the price of failure was death. She tried not to think about it. Instead, she focused on her success. She had earned the trust of the German Consul, and that was no small thing. She had him practically eating out of her hands. Finally, her confidence was growing after weeks of devastating losses. The feeling stayed with her as she hailed a cab and continued to the hotel. But when they reached the Queen Emma, she realized she was not out of hot water yet. While the hotel was in a safe and pleasant district, some of the denizens were anything but. The Queen Emma was a three-story colonial-style building in the most fashionable part of Willemstad, but something about it gave her a queasy feeling. As she registered, the clerk eyed her, and she felt the people in the lobby scrutinizing her every movement. They were speaking in a dialect she could not understand. Yes, she was being watched, as all foreigners are. That was to be expected. She wondered if they would search her room after she left, so she vowed to keep the suitcase with its treasure in her sight at all times. She felt as if their creepy eyes could see inside the bag and the feeling made her stomach twist in knots.

Sophie Schiller is an author of historical fiction and spy thrillers. She loves stories that carry the reader back in time to exotic and far-flung locations. Kirkus Reviews has called her "an accomplished thriller and historical adventure writer." Publishers Weekly called her novel, ISLAND ON FIRE, "a memorable romantic thriller", her novel RACE TO TIBET, “a thrilling yarn,” and her TRANSFER DAY, “a page-turner with emotional resonance.” Kirkus Reviews called her latest novel, THE LOST DIARY OF ALEXANDER HAMILTON, "an engaging coming-of-age story of heartbreak, bravery, honor, and triumph." Her latest novel is THE UNLIKELY SPY, a historical spy thriller set during WWI. She graduated from American University, Washington, DC and lives in Brooklyn, NY.

New Release Blitz + #Giveaway : Butting Heads with her Mountain Man - by Ella Braeme #HolidayRomance

Could this grinch with his dark scowl be the light of my life?

Butting Heads With Her Mountain Man

Elken Grove Mountain Men Book 1

by

Ella Braeme

Genre: Contemporary Small-Town Mountain Man Romance

Could this grinch with his dark scowl be the light of my life?

Grace

I need to start afresh in my small hometown. While I am happy to be back in the mountains, the efforts of my hapless family to help me settle in lead to me running zig-zag to avoid further disasters. Being scrutinized by the townsfolk doesn’t help either. Still, I set to work to establish my own accounting business with all the determination that I can muster.

I count myself lucky when I get my first client—only to find out he is as grumpy as they get—and yet, I can't deny the pull I feel towards him.

Lyle

I hate Christmas. And it shows. So I need help keeping my Christmas tree farm afloat. The accountant turns out to be an opinionated lover of all things holiday. Still, I can't help but feel a spark of attraction for her. An attraction that I have no intention of owning up to.

This is a heartwarming, small-town romance novella with a heroine who's determined to make her dreams come true, a grumpy mountain man who’s doing his best to keep her at arm’s length, and a nettlesome audience of townspeople buzzing with Christmas cheer, or in Lyle’s case: Christmas scowling. Light steam, HEA, no cheating, standalone.
