August 11, 2022 By

Review
“… this polished story’s mythology is teased out with steady pacing, crisp prose, and a variety of twists that will please readers of urban fantasy-especially those drawn to strong female protagonists-right up until the satisfying ending.”
BookLife Reviews

Alex Kincaid is twenty-four years old. She leads a quiet life in a college town, works at Galen Industries, and spends most of her free time with her co-workers. Her friends, like Emma Bastian, who read too many romance novels, want to meddle in Alex’s love life. That’s what friends do, right?

Yet Alex is too preoccupied with the odd letter she’s received. It grants her a large inheritance from a total stranger who was the collector of various relics. Among his effects is a magical mask that will shatter her life forever. After an attempt to kill her fails, Alex is horrified to see the mask take the shape of her face within seconds after donning it. It’s endowed with the powers of an ancient deity, who is the protector of order and the kingdom of the sky.

Alex is now in danger from the god of chaos and the kingdom of the wicked. He has vowed to take revenge for killing his lost love. The mask fuses the personalities of its previous owners, and now Alex’s identity is in danger of being lost forever. As Alex and her friends attempt to solve the mystery, the stakes keep rising. The god of chaos is hot on Alex’s trail, and he won’t stop. As they face the coming storm, Alex realizes her romantic feelings for handsome co-worker Gabriel Reyes, who is a guiding presence in all the bright places. Does he feel the same? Alex is torn between two kingdoms and must carefully thread the needle of destiny and fulfillment. $0.99 on Kindle.

My Ex-Best friend’s Daughter

August 11, 2022 By

Imagine my shock when I see my former best friend’s daughter.
Her smile making me hard the moment I catch her sweet scent.
Those firm bre@sts peeking out from a sexy little business suit.
All the sass and confidence wrapped up in a petite curvy frame.
Safe to say we know which head will win this battle.

Eden’s father may have been my best friend before an epic clash…
But I know what I want. Right now that’s his daughter.
More specifically speaking…
Her bent over my knees.
Begging me to claim her innocence.
I can already picture the headlines.
‘Hot shot Director beds his much younger assistant.’

I’ve tried for years to rid myself of my darkness.
But screw being Mr. Nice Guy.
The beast inside can only stay locked away for so long.
And tonight it’s salivating for a taste of the forbidden fruit beneath Eden’s business suite.

The Beauty of Tribulation

August 8, 2022 By

The Beauty of Tribulation was written to provide answers based upon scripture to help us understand things such as:
• The purpose of tribulation in the life of a believer.
• Reasons why it is necessary.
• How God uses it for our edification and his glory.
• How God is not the author of our tribulation.

At the root of it, the greatest purpose is to depict the beauty of our painful, frustrating, and most hopeless moments when we allow God to complete the work he is trying to accomplish through them. As you turn the pages of this book you will be taken on a journey that will delve you deep into the tribulation process and come away with a firm understanding of it, perhaps like never before. Every premise is backed with scripture, focused on what the bible says rather than my own ideas.

J.A. Cox hopes that all who read will walk away with a greater appreciation and devotion toward the Lord in regard to this troublesome subject and inevitable part of our lives.

Free: Corrupted Heir

August 6, 2022 By

I’m walking down that aisle… whether I like it or not.

I learned very early on that every life matters—no life is insignificant, most especially not my own mother’s, whose life was cruelly slain. I vowed to do what I can so that no one has to feel as if they’re nothing at all when they lose their loved ones.
So when I’m forced into a marriage with Dominic Luca—the man next in line to be the head of the biggest crime family in all of New York—the ring he puts on my finger is a gun to my head with his finger on the trigger.

I couldn’t possibly hold his hand knowing it has the blood of countless men on it. I couldn’t possibly look into his eyes knowing he’s seen more deaths than a coroner.

I could never be safe around him. Not after a horrifying truth comes out, a truth that weaves his past with mine, a truth that makes me realize something even more horrifying than the truth itself.

Not only am I married to a killer, I’m married to a monster. Free on Kindle.
