Hidden Enemy is Live

November 28, 2018 By JPMcLean 2 Comments

The winter rains have set in here in the Pacific Northwest, and I can’t think of a better way to while away the dark evenings than by reading a good book. Speaking of which . . .

Hidden Enemy has been released!

Emelynn Taylor’s discovery of a forbidden book threatens to expose dangerous secrets. Two powerful factions clash: one ancient, one evil. And both of them want a piece of her. Not even her gift of flight will save her. Emelynn must form an uneasy partnership with a dangerous man and risk her gift and her future to protect her friends’ lives.

Secret Sky Has Launched

November 16, 2018 By JPMcLean 8 Comments

The book that started it all, Secret Sky, has launched. When Emelynn Taylor accepted a stranger’s mysterious gift, she couldn’t know it would hijack her life. Now, it strikes without warning, strips her of gravity and sends her airborne, unchecked. Anywhere. Anytime.

Everybody wishes they could fly—until it happens.

When Emelynn Taylor wakes up in the emergency room, her injuries present Dr. Avery Coulter with more questions than answers. Who is this guarded young woman? Why was she found in the middle of Sunset Park? How can she have injuries consistent with falling from above the tree line? Seemingly from nowhere? And, more importantly: Why is she lying about it?

The truth is stranger than anyone could have imagined – least of all Emelynn herself.

Nine years earlier, during the same summer she’d lost her father, 12-year-old Emelynn accepted a ‘gift’ from a mysterious woman called Jolene. Now, as she recovers in Dr. Coulter’s emergency room, she’s left wondering if that blessing was really more of a curse. Jolene’s gift planted the seeds of incredible power within Emelynn – but what’s the point of such abilities if you can’t control them? Her emerging gift of flight, for example, nearly killed Emelynn when it sent her plummeting to the sidewalk in Sunset Park. Next time, she might not be so lucky.

But Emelynn is determined to master her abilities, and returns to the seaside cottage where Jolene had once granted her this ‘gift.’ There, Dr. Coulter guides Emelynn in uncovering a secret society of others just like her, who inhabit a mysterious world-within-a-world that challenges everything Emelynn thought she’d known. But the more she uncovers, the murkier the truth becomes. Soon, Emelynn is left questioning the motives of those she’d trusted the most – and is forced to rely on her barely mastered powers in a desperate fight for survival.

Secret Sky is the first book in the thrilling, otherworldly The Gift Legacy series by JP McLean. Seamlessly blending paranormal mystery, fantasy, and romance, this beautifully written and deeply resonant adventure will swoop you into a vivid, new reality and leave your imagination soaring.

Secret Sky will be available for a limited time for $0.99. If you’re missing the first book in the series, now’s the time to grab it.

Secret Sky rebranded cover replaces Awakening

 

Secret Sky was formerly titled The Gift: Awakening. If you own the original, congratulations! You now have a collector’s edition. The second stand-alone book in The Gift Legacy series, Hidden Enemy (formerly The Gift: Revelation) will be dropping on November 27. As always, I’d love to hear your feedback.

Sizzling Summer Read

May 31, 2015 By JPMcLean 6 Comments

Penance Book CoverWindStorm Press has released Penance (now titled Lethal Waters) just in time for a sizzling summer read. So go ahead—put the wine on ice, frost the beer glasses, or chill the iced tea and settle in for an exhilarating ride. This time Emelynn Taylor has two partners, one a detective, the other her lover. Both will prove pivotal as she serves her penance for shedding light on a secret that’s been kept safe in the dark for hundreds of years. Emelynn is playing a deadly game in Lethal Waters . . .

—Giselle Roeder, Author of We Don’t Talk About That, calls Lethal Waters An exciting journey.
—Annie Siegel, lyrasist, says Lethal Waters is Fun, exciting and addictive.

A body in the water. A vast ocean. A killer on the loose. 

In the midst of a bloody rebellion, Emelynn Taylor exposes her gift of flight to save a man’s life. Now International Covert Operations knows her secret. The powerful organization is willing to cover up the carnage and protect her secret—in exchange for her services.

Her first assignment, a drug case in the coastal city of Vancouver, soon reveals a grisly murder that implicates one of her own kind.

Stalked by the ancient Tribunal Novem and vilified by a distrustful team of detectives, Emelynn takes on a perilous undercover role embedded in a drug ring where anyone could be the murderer.

Intrigue and danger lurk in the cold Pacific, challenging Emelynn’s unique gift and pitting her loyalties against her honour. And her choice is guaranteed to hurt someone.

The fourth book in The Gift Legacy series, Lethal Waters is a thriller that skirts the edges of reality in a world within our own. Don your life jacket and escape the ordinary: take flight with Emelynn Taylor.

Lethal Waters is a dark supernatural thriller, perfect for fans of JR Ward, Deborah Harkness, Jim Butcher, Charlaine Harris, and Keri Arthur. A Sizzling Summer read.
