A Slap in the Face : Kelly Logue
Pure Spite Presents: A Slap in the Face by Kelly Logue A short little novel full of sleaze, madness, and murder Set in a small Alaska town, A Slap in the Face focuses on the Student Loans Across America Program (SLAAP). The story is told through the eyes of a new hire, who sees the laziness, corruption, and hypocrisy of the organization but is powerless to stop it, so he can only laugh as events unfold around him. Meanwhile, the Human Resources director believes himself to be on a holy mission to rid the world of filth and depravity by killing gay Native American men. But he is a bit of a hypocrite, as he is a gay Native American man. A third story concerns the acting director of operations of SLAAP, a manipulative woman who is easily offended and quick to anger. She knowingly sends a vulnerable woman to her death out of pure spite. This is a self-published work with a touch of mayhem and is not for the faint of heart or those with overly sensitive natures. Get your copy today on Amazon.com. A Slap in the Face has been adapted into an audiobook currently available on audible.com.

Like a Lily Among the Thorns
There are those who are born into loving families and then there are the less fortunate who must forge their own families through strong friendships. At a local small library in New York City, one such family was born. And just like so many capricious happenstances in life, this family unit embraced newcomers and grew exponentially. But this clan was also charged with far more than spreading love and joy and a sense of belonging. This clan was formed by divine Providence to help save the planet.
Gabrielle Bernstein, the MC of Like a Lily Among the Thorns, is a woman in her twenties and has started her career as a librarian at a NYC public library. Abandoned by her father as a young girl and now orphaned by her deranged mother, Gabby longs for a family connection. Coincidentally, she finds this connection at the same time she inherits a B&B in Vermont from her estranged and now deceased father. This enchanted inn is under the watchful eye of goddesses of myth and legend who have been tasked to save mankind from destroying itself and this planet. These goddesses will use their powers to try and stall the onslaught of the effects of droughts, floods, and rising temperatures. But as a safety net they have collected human saviors all over the planet to erect safe havens at high altitudes away from flood waters and blistering temperatures.
This one group of saviors are ordinary people who have some extraordinary abilities and enjoy a higher consciousness. They are brought together to join forces in Vermont to create one such refuge. Along the way there is romance, misunderstandings, conflict, and internal growth. Locations are Manhattan, London, Brooklyn, and Rutland, Vermont. Woven through this tale is Gabrielle’s inherent understanding that she must be grateful, mindful, and present in this journey called “life.”
The impending devastation that will be brought about by the effects of global climate change is the underpinning of this Cli-Fi/speculative fiction novel. Like a Lily Among the Thorns (92,000 words) focuses on how this potential disaster will have dire consequences for us all and is currently becoming more top of mind as people are waking up to strange weather events such as the scorching temperatures that have gripped the Northwestern states and torrential rains in the Northeast.
