A Foster Fling – A Romance Anthology

by Justine Bergman August 10, 2022

Seven families. Seven forbidden trysts. Seven decadent romances. Get lost in the streets of Urban Decay where moral lines are crossed. Where The Tower looms in the distance, and the Destructive Harbor is just beyond the shore. Hidden in the Depravity of the Dark, Bury Me Alive as we crawl Under the Skin of right and wrong. And remember, If I Can’t Have You, then no one will. In this system, the family rules are blurred, and lines are crossed. A Foster Fling is a limited-edition romance anthology collection from USA Today and Bestselling Authors.

Moon Rising by Daniel Weisbeck

by Justine Bergman November 16, 2021

written by Justine Bergman

We all have a list of genres we’d love to explore more, always on the hunt for that one book to open the floodgates and introduce us to a whole new world of literary adventures. Sci-Fi Thrillers are not something I tend to read very often, but I’ve been looking for one to help me dive a bit deeper. Cue Moon Rising by Daniel Weisbeck, book one of The Upsilon Series. Not only do readers get Science Fiction, but also a fresh sub-flavor of Biopunk. With the recent push of the cyberpunk aesthetic across other types of media, I can’t think of a better book to become acquainted with.
