New Release: THE BUTCHER AND THE BAKER

amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

Happy Release Day to this sassy contemporary romance “romcom”: THE BUTCHER AND THE BAKER by Mellanie Szereto!

I narrated this one with J. River Pierce who is the perfect Auggie for my Petra: cute, stubborn, and a bit sweet, just like his pastry. THE BUTCHER AND THE BAKER is book 3 in The Homegrown Cafe Book Club Series. You can listen to the first two books on Audible, each with a different “perfect pair” of narrators: MAKIN’ BACON and THE FARMER TAKES A HUSBAND.

 

From the Publisher:

The women of The Homegrown Café Book Club are over 40, single, and loving it. Fate, however, has a different plan with a younger man for every last one of them.

After six broken engagements, butcher Petra Lochsley wants nothing to do with men and romance. Her hobbies include throwing axes, discussing books and having raunchy conversations with her middle-aged friends, and eating the occasional Boston cream doughnut – when the flirtatious baker doesn’t insist she prostitute herself for the decadent pleasure. One game of tongue hockey is enough with the guy she used to babysit. So what if he’s hot and is a good kisser?

Baker Auggie Hofmeier didn’t mean fall in love with or accidentally marry the butcher, but his heart seems to know what it’s doing. Besides, his new wife invited him home for a wedding night and more, that is, until the conniving interference by The Candlestick Maker, the old man who owns the shop he and Pet both want to buy, threatens their happily-ever-after. What’s a knave to do?

Listen to THE BUTCHER AND THE BAKER on Audible or Amazon.

Then take a listen to THE CLASS REUNION by N. L. Hinkens, now on audio!

 

Publisher’s Summary:

You can run, but I will find you.

Working as a successful PI in Los Angeles, Heather Nelson hasn’t seen any of her high school classmates from Iowa in over a decade. When she makes a last-minute decision to attend her class reunion, she and her once tight-knit group of friends are surprised at dinner by a delivery of an elaborate forget-me-not floral arrangement. But the accompanying card contains an ominous message: “You deserve to die” – a message they brush off as an elaborate prank at first.

When several of the group come close to death in the following weeks, they begin to suspect that the sender of the message has deadly intentions. One by one, the friends contact Heather to divulge secrets from their past, convinced that the skeletons they are hiding put them at risk. Fearing for their lives, they beg Heather to return to Iowa and track down the person they believe is trying to kill them. But her friends only think they know her. Heather is hiding an explosive secret of her own.

Is she really an intended victim in a deadly game of revenge, or a twisted killer?

New Release: SCANDAL IN THE PARISH

amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

I’m excited to announce that SCANDAL IN THE PARISH: Priests and Parishioners Behaving Badly in Eighteenth-Century France by Karen E. Carter, is now available as an audiobook.

Challenging both my narration skill and my knowledge of religion in relationship to the French Revolution, SCANDAL IN THE PARISH studies the important relationship between parishioners and the priests in small, rural parishes of France, and “forcefully corrects the notion that Catholicism declined in importance in the period before the Revolution.”

“Well-written and clearly argued study.” – Jeremy Hayhoe, Université de Moncton

From the Publisher:

In 1770, the priest Nicolas Vernier was accused of neglecting church services, inappropriate behaviour in the confessional, financial improprieties, and affairs with the village schoolmistresses. In a contentious church court case, parishioners described all of their priest’s wrongdoings, and in turn, he detailed many of theirs. Ultimately, Vernier finished his career as a cathedral canon in another diocese. 

Scandal in the Parish recounts Vernier’s story and many similar 18th-century cases. In fascinating detail that reveals essential facets of rural religion during the Catholic Reformation period, Karen Carter considers French lay people’s relationship with their parish curé, who governed and influenced so much of their religious practice. Although the priest’s role as purveyor of God’s grace through the sacraments was secure as long as he performed his duties appropriately, priests who were unable to navigate the pressures and high expectations put on them by their superiors and parishioners risked broken relationships, public disturbances of the peace, and even prosecution. These scandals, Carter demonstrates, tell us much about rural parish life, the processes of negotiation and accommodation between curés and their parishioners, and ongoing religious reforms and enforcement throughout the 18th century. 

An engaging venture into the world of the parish that highlights the centrality of the priest-parishioner relationship, Scandal in the Parish reveals the attitudes and practices of ordinary people who were active agents in their religious and spiritual lives.

The book is published by McGill-Queen’s University Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.

SCANDAL IN THE PARISH is available on Audible, Amazon, and iTunes.

New Release: CABIN 3

amy@amydeuchler.comAudiobooks

Happy audiobook release day for CABIN 3 (Steele Shadows Security Book 3) by the amazing Amanda McKinney!

This one is my favorite in the series so far. Lexi is truly a badass and so fun to narrate. A special thanks to dual narration partner Michael Reid for making us sound awesome.

Enjoy!

From the publisher:

Hidden deep in the remote mountains of Berry Springs is a private security firm where some go to escape, and others find exactly what they’ve been looking for.

Welcome to Cabin 1, Cabin 2, Cabin 3….

Businessman. CEO. Head of household. Three titles worst suited for Gunner Steele, the short tempered, reticent former Marine and rebel of the infamous Steele brothers. After an evening searching the mountains for his missing office manager, Gunner finds an undercover agent at his front door demanding protection — and that anyone but him be her bodyguard. Usually, Gunner didn’t give a damn if someone disliked him, but this particular curvy vixen had information about the man who killed his father and maimed his brother. Information he’d gladly sell his soul for…but is he willing to sell hers, too?

After failure to deliver the location of a Russian spy as slippery as a bowl of borscht, Lexi York is fresh out of a job and a near-death experience when she seeks refuge at Steele Shadows, despite her disdain for the tattooed bad boy, Gunner Steele. At her wit’s end, Lexi devises a plan to use Gunner to get her job back, but what she hadn’t planned on was developing feelings for the tortured soul she could never tame.

Unwilling to make promises he can’t keep, Gunner is faced with the biggest decision of his life. Avenge his family, or throw away the only woman who’s cracked open his shielded heart?

 

The audiobook for CABIN 3 is available exclusively on Audible, Amazon and iTunes.
