New Release – Thresholds Imprint – Honestly, Ali!

Honestly, Ali! 

by Christine Marciniak

 

Honestly Ali Book Cover

 

Ali Caldwell thought her troubles were over, but she has a new one. She’s let her grades fall and now she’s on academic probation. She has to get her grades up or leave school.

Everyone is talking about an intriguing study system, but Ali realizes it’s nothing more than cheating, so she doesn’t use it. She studies for hours to get a perfect grade on her next test.

Instead of applauding, her teacher accuses her of cheating. To make things worse, the administration is certain that her boyfriend is the mastermind behind it all.

She needs to prove that not only didn’t she cheat, but Liam is innocent as well, before they both get kicked out of school.

Purchase the trade paperback from Amazon as well as in ebook for Kindle and NOOK.

Twenty-two-year-old George Washington was pleased by his promotion to the rank of lieutenant-colonel and quite content to be the second-in-command of Governor Robert Dinwiddie’s expedition to remove the French from the Ohio Valley.

Then Joshua Fry, the mission’s elderly commanding officer, is killed in a fall from his horse. Washington, whose experience in battle is all but nonexistent, is suddenly in command of the Virginia Regiment at a remote field in the Allegheny Mountains called Great Meadows—and the enemy is coming.

 

ARC is available for reviewers. Tradepaperback, Kindle, Nook, and more will be available soon.
