cj Sez: Today’s post is about paying it forward.
Marketing is one of the hardest things for authors to do. That necessary chore not only takes most of them out of their comfort zones, but also takes them away for their first love...creating stories for their loyal readers. I thought I'd help out a little with the marketing by sharing Amazon reviews of great stories by some author friends of mine.

FATAL RHYTHM by Dr. Ron B. O'Gorman
Dr. Ron O’Gorman studied cardiovascular surgery under world-renowned
heart surgeon Dr. Michael E. DeBakey. Dr. O’Gorman’s debut novel, FATAL
RHYTHM, is a medical suspense/mystery.
5-Star Review:
Joe Morales, a second generation Mexican American is
resident surgeon in a prominent Texas hospital. Wanting to attain the so called
"American Dream", being a successful doctor living lavishly and being
accepted, he grapples with how to accomplish this apart from his ethnic
identity. To add to that dilemma, there are heart patients who are dying
mysteriously in addition to a personal crisis, his young son with a heart
defect. Trying to maneuver through a landmine of back stabbing, rivalries among
his colleagues as well as a test of his faith, Joe comes to realize what is
most important in his life, both personally as well as career wise. Well
written mystery.

A Box Full of Trouble: 5 Black Cat Detective Novels from the
Familiar Legacy series Kindle Edition… five times the Trouble from five
different authors.
The only regret you will have after reading these five
fantastic feline adventures is that there aren't more. You get to follow one
Cumberbatch Sherlock inspired kitty as he helps his owner and various pet
sitters solve crimes from a serial killer in Alabama,
an art thief in Savannah,
an arsonist in Tallahassee, then back again to Alabama for some crime solving
on a ranch for wounded veterans before finishing with a flourish with a
kidnapping and murder in Kentucky. I loved this kitty's attitude and the
serious doses of romance that accompany his biped owners along the way. Five
authors give you their take on Trouble and each one offers you a humorous and
clever interpretation of the four legged gumshoe. There is nothing better to me
than a summer bargain of books and this one should not be missed. You don't'
need to like cats to love Trouble.

And now for some blatant self-promotion, here’s a 5-star
review for Deadly Star.
Scientist Dr. Mirabel Campbell finds her life in danger as
well as several friends when her hobby of star gazing has her stumbling across
something no one was supposed to see. A top-secret nanosatellite. When her
ex-husband Sully shows up at the most opportune time to save her life she also
has to deal with long-buried emotions. And it turns out Sully isn't who she
thought he was. But Mirabel is extremely intelligent and it doesn't take long
for her to see that 1+1=her! And her discovery along with her scientific
specialty makes her the target of a mysterious psychopath who sends an assassin
to silence her. Sully & Mirabel obviously have unfinished business but
secrets drove them apart once, will they again? When I first read the premise
of this book I almost didn't read it but the review ratings changed my mind and
I'm so glad they did. Kept me on the edge of my seat. This action packed drama
filled book has a high rating for a reason. IT WAS GREAT!
That’s it for this post. You-all guys keep on keeping on,
and I’ll try to do the same.
