Keeper of the Lost Flame:

Book Two in the Epic, Fantasy Adventure Trilogy of Magic & Destiny (The Legend of Little Square 2)

Following the first book in the award-winning trilogy-Forgotten Realm of Secrets, the epic fantasy fiction saga continues with Book Two-Keeper of the Lost Flame.

Lit Square has gotten caught up in the paranormal, arcane magic, and supernatural trouble, and till now, has lived to tell about it.

Tough and seasoned, and with courage to spare, he is unafraid to take what he wants. No longer is he the same awkward, timid boy who left behind his home, family, and the girl he loved, just to uncover the truth. The almost seventeen-year-old has survived the unimaginable, but is still the same sweet, unassuming kid who left home at fifteen. Undeniably handsome, he is unaware of the effect his looks have on others-especially Greta, the girl who runs the inn.

In Keeper of the Lost Flame, Lit's journey brings him to the quaint mountain town of Mountainview, as he follows an ancient artifact. But something is off. Hovering beneath Mountainview's homey and warm surface lurks a malevolent presence that has claimed dominion over the close-knit town for generations.

By night, dark entities prowl the streets, keeping residents behind closed doors and shuttered windows. The boarded-up Cemetery of Eternal Sorrow holds the town's darkest secret.

Between flirting with Greta, and being pulled into Mountainview's paranormal problems, Lit discovers his heritage is part of something ancient and vindictive. The town's history conceals a shameful secret that's been waiting centuries to be revealed, and only Lit has the blood and guts to uncover it. His reputation has preceded him, and nightmares call his name.

Keeper of the Lost Flame by Award winning author, Rose M. Delorane, continues where Forgotten Realm of Secrets left off. Dark secrets are revealed as they collide with the supernatural in a fast-paced fantasy fiction epic saga.

Why You Need to Start Planning Your Holiday Book Promotion in September and October

(Click here to get Book Promotion Help)

Ah, the holidays—the most wonderful (and chaotic) time of the year. Shoppers are in a frenzy, shipping deadlines loom, and your readers are out there searching for the perfect gift. Spoiler: that perfect gift could be your book—but only if you start planning now.

If you wait until November or December to think about promoting your book, you’re already late to the holiday party (and someone else snagged the good eggnog). That’s why September and October are the sweet spot for getting your holiday promotions rolling. Here’s why.

1. Readers Shop Earlier Than You Think

Forget the old-school last-minute mall runs. These days, people start holiday shopping as soon as pumpkin spice lattes hit the shelves. If your book isn’t already on their radar by October, it risks getting lost in the holiday shuffle.

2. Promotion Takes Time to Gain Traction

Whether you’re scheduling blog features, social media ads, or newsletter swaps, you can’t just snap your fingers and expect results overnight. Promotions build momentum, and the earlier you start, the more visibility your book will have when readers are ready to click “buy.”

3. The Competition Gets Fierce

By November, every author, business, and their grandma is flooding feeds with sales pitches. Standing out in December is like shouting in Times Square at midnight on New Year’s Eve. But if you start in September or October, you’ll already have carved out your space (and maybe saved your voice).

4. You Can Strategize Instead of Scramble

Holiday promotions are about more than just posting “Buy My Book!” once a week. When you start early, you have time to:

• Create themed graphics and images.

• Schedule social media posts in advance.

• Pitch to holiday gift guides, book blogs, and influencers.

• Bundle your book with other goodies (bookmarks, signed copies, gift baskets—oh my!).

5. Readers LOVE Holiday-Themed Marketing

Let’s be honest—slap a Santa hat on your book cover graphic and readers pay attention. Start early, and you can weave in Halloween, Thanksgiving, and holiday cheer, keeping your book visible through the entire season.

Don’t Be the Author Who Waits

Think of your holiday promotion like shipping a package. You wouldn’t wait until December 24th to mail it and hope it arrives on time, right? Same goes for your book. September and October are when the smart authors plant the seeds, so their sales can grow into a bountiful holiday harvest.

So grab your calendar, dust off those festive graphics, and start planning now. Because nothing looks better under the tree than a beautifully wrapped book (except maybe two books). 🎄📚

Eternal Hero (Omniverse Chronicles Book 1)

What if you were haunted by Dark Dreams?

What if you met the woman of your dreams in a nightmare?

Jack Thornton, a former Marine lieutenant who served with the famed “Walking Dead” in Vietnam and who is now a lawyer in San Francisco. His quiet, ordered life begins to unravel, however, when his nightmares begin to shape his waking hours.

The grim images that haunt Jack’s sleep are not of Vietnam but of things and beings not of this earth. Foremost among them is an adversary older than time and evil beyond imagining: the Yarvaak Golu, The-God-Who-Waits.

A fleeting image of a beautiful silver-haired woman and a chance meeting with friends at a strange Irish tavern he frequents leads him on a journey of discovery. Jack comes to realize that he is something far more than human. He is a Hero, an undying servant of the Absolute, doomed to an endless cycle of violent death and rebirth.

Jack will not travel alone. He is guided by Sean Plunkett, once a feared IRA gunman; Ian Masterman, the leader of an ancient secret society, and Bridgid Cassidy, a redhaired Wise Woman who knew him in an age of legends when he bore a storied name.

All of them will aid Jack on his path, which will lead to a clash with an implacable enemy and a meeting with a beautiful woman he has known only in his dreams: Aiyanna...
