If you like urban fantasy, but you're tired of the tropes playing out the same--snarky relucant hero, tortured by their sins--please check out my novel, Idle Hands.

Dr. Grey is anything but reluctant or tortured by her sins. Skeptical, bitter, but not tortured. She revels in what she's becoming.

The book cover for Idle Hands. The background is a street-level photograph of Philadelphia City Hall and surrounding buildings. The building-top statue of William Penn is at the very top of the cover. The photograph is manipulated to have a deep cyan tint. The title is rendered in an orange-red, shiny font at the top. Orange flames rise from the bottom of the cover, turning to wisps of smoke at the top. In the flame stands a slim, middle-aged Black woman with a medium-length afro hairstyle--presumably Jackson Grey. Dr. Grey faces the viewer. She has a neutral expression on her face. She's wearing a grey hoodie and blue jeans. She's holding a pistol fitted with a silencer in her right hand, her finger on the trigger; the weapon is pointed down and to the side. Her left hand is held in a fist at her side. At the bottom, in a teal font that contrasts with the flame is the subtitle and author. The subtitle is "The Jackson Grey Situation #1". The author is Aubrey Jones.

Alec has dark brown hair and eyes of the same colour. He is looking sideways past the viewer and wears a black suit with a bow tie. In the background, the Elisabeth Tower can be seen, across the river Thames.

It's Shameless Promo Thursday again, wherein I remind you that I write books you might like to read.

Up today: The Bed, an urban fantasy about ghosts, demons, angels, and old furniture.

What if you bought a piece of antique furniture and it came fully equipped with a ghost - who had a lot of problems and some very powerful enemies!

* Headstrong heroine
* Annoying boyfriend
* Haunted furniture
* Handsome ghost

Details: lauraperryauthor.com/the-bed

Book cover of The Bed by Laura Perry, featuring a sepia-toned antique bed hovering above a tiled floor, with a complicated glowing magical symbol floating above it. Behind the book cover is a faded photograph of the front of an antique shop, with a sign board hanging from a metal frame.

Teryl's Tales of Whim~

The sirens were excited. They were due for a vacation and they had travel-brochures to help them decide.

"For just a few pearls more, this resort brings you a Continental breakfast-in-pool every morning."

"This quaint little sea-shore town has glass-bottom bus tours so you can always see the ground under you!"

"Here's a more exciting idea; sky-diving classes!"

"Oh heck yeah sisters, let's be harpies!"

"Make way for the Sky-sirens!"

Teryl's Tales of Whim~

"At least inner-demons don't bother anyone else. Having outer-demons..."

There was a crash and a screech and a clattering of cutlery.

My client didn't even flinch, simply adding another I.O.U to the pile on the table.

"...It's about as expensive but they need so much more enrichment."

I nodded sympathetically, "So you need me to exorcise them?"

"Oh no! I want them to be picked up by cameras - I could monetize the hell out of them!"

I saw my cousin scurrying over and braced.

"I just herd the news-- oh sorry, no pun intended!"

I smiled patiently, "Things'll be rough but we'll get through it."

"Neither of you are feeling too gruff about it?"

I took a deep breath, "We're adapting. Waiting to hear back from a specialist."

"So crossing that bridge when y-- ACK!"

My spouse head-butted my cousin in the hip again, bleating "I'm currently a goat, not hard of hearing!"
