Two stories are available to read for free this month–a dark fantasy adventure featuring elves and vampires, and a fun mystery misadventure featuring kickass amateur sleuth Kira Brightwell:
Legends of Lasniniar: Her Rightful Place (Fantasy)
Arinmalia holds herself above the rest of her Wild Elf tribemates. With good reason.
Few can match her fighting and tracking skills. She needs no friends to watch her back or distract her with their tiresome company. She prefers to walk the forest paths alone, with only her own thoughts as companions.
Arinmalia knows in her heart a great destiny awaits her. Something beyond the modest village life of her tribe. She dreams of finding it. She hungers to make her tribemates understand.
She needs them to acknowledge her rightful place.
A stand-alone story from the sprawling history of the elves in the World of Lasniniar epic fantasy series by Jacquelyn Smith.

Puncher’s Chance: A Kira Brightwell Short Story (Mystery)
Local hero and problem solver for hire, Kira Brightwell finds herself on the run. Again.
Her running shoes pound the crowded sidewalk. A trickle of sweat slithers down her back in the California heat. And the damp remains of scrambled egg spatter the front of her favorite Nine Inch Nails T-shirt.
The egg stain earns her a few looks from passers-by. That and her breakneck pace.
Kira’s quarry remains two blocks ahead of her. She needs to haul ass if she wants to catch him.
…Because when a bad guy messes with her favorite shirt, the case gets personal.
A stand-alone misadventure story from the Kira Brightwell mystery series by Jacquelyn Smith.
