  • The Horseman’s Tale is a gripping and deeply emotional coming-of-age novel that weaves together themes of love, identity, PTSD, and the redemptive power of horses. At its heart, the book explores the devastating impact of self-repression, as Jake Montgomery battles both the trauma of war and the quiet anguish of hiding his true sexuality. Set in the 1960s—a time of political and social upheaval—Jake's story serves as a lens through which readers can understand the challenges faced by LGBTQ+ individuals during a period of severe societal discrimination 
  • Through his relationship with a special horse, Jake embarks on a journey of healing and self-discovery, finally breaking free from the chains of shame and embracing his authentic identity. A deeply personal narrative of resilience, love, and transformation, The Horseman’s Tale illuminates the intersections of mental health, LGBTQ+ struggles, and civil rights, offering a powerful commentary on the importance of accepting oneself in a world that often demands silence.
  • The Horseman’s Tale is a must-read for anyone interested in LGBTQ+ history, mental health, civil rights, and personal journeys of self-discovery. While the novel is grounded in the struggles of a Vietnam veteran, its themes of repression and acceptance resonate universally. LGBTQ+ readers will find themselves reflecting on their own experiences of identity and self-acceptance, especially those who came of age in an era when being openly queer could lead to discrimination or worse.
  • Animal lovers and equine enthusiasts will appreciate the novel's touching portrayal of the healing relationship between Jake and his horse, which symbolizes hope and redemption. The book also serves as an important conversation starter about the intersection of mental health and LGBTQ+ identity, especially for younger generations who may not fully understand the historical context in which their predecessors lived.

    • Tom Equels, a Vietnam veteran and social justice advocate, The Horseman’s Tale provides a window into the past while offering lessons on empathy, resilience, and the importance of living one's truth.
    • The Horseman’s Tale is available everywhere books are sold. For more information, visit https://TheHorsemansTale.com or follow Tom on social media. He’s @TomEquels (on Instagram) @Author.Tom.Equels (on Facebook), and Linkedin.

When we move to the exclusive Cutters Island, my life changes overnight. Dressed like the perfect wife, pushing my baby down the street in her pink stroller, I look up and smile at the security cameras. Because I know they are watching. And for now, I need to play my part.

I wake up in my beautiful bedroom and instinctively feel for my husband. But the silk sheets are cold—he hasn’t come home. Reaching for the baby monitor on my nightstand, I scan the screen for the familiar shape of my sleeping daughter. But she’s not there.

Moving through the house in the darkness, I tell myself the footage is just grainy. I pass the large window over the stairs, and see a light on in my mother-in-law’s house across the street, as if she is watching. The thought sends a chill down my spine and I start to run. And as I open my daughter’s bedroom door, my worst fear comes true: my baby is gone.

As I collapse onto the carpet, I smell smoke. And when I turn to see flames licking at the banister, I know this is my fault. I am paying for what happened that night all those years ago…

Because I am not a perfect wife. I am not a good mother. But I am the perfect liar.

No one knows what I have been through to get this life. And they shouldn’t underestimate how far I’ll go to get my baby back…

An addictive and gripping thriller that will leave you on the edge of your seat. Packed with twists you’ll never see coming, this is perfect for fans of Freida McFadden’s The HousemaidThe Girl on the Train and Colleen Hoover’s Verity.


Anya Mora lives a ferry ride from Seattle, WA with her family. Her novels, while leaning toward the dark, ultimately reflect light, courage, and her innate belief that love rewards the brave.

Good Bad Mother 
Written By Anya Mora 
Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews


First, I want to thank Anya Mora, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review. 


Anya Mora brings her fans a psychological thriller packed with suspense in Good Bad Mother. Instantly, Anya grabbed a hold of my heart strings missing baby Clover but then in a split second a roaring fire rips through the house. At this point my heart is literally beating out of my chest as I wonder what in the world is going on and where is the sweet little baby! Yes, this was the hook I needed to continue to read the book. 


Anya, would like to dedicate this book to her sister, Alessandra. She is always reminding her that she is a good mom-especially when she needs it the most. 


I could feel something was off about Amelia due to why she didn’t want to be a part of her husband’s family picture. I understand not everyone is a selfie queen like I am but being in this was making her physically sick. Why didn’t she want her picture taken? 


Is Amelia the person everyone thinks she is? What secrets has she been hiding? You need to go pick up the book to find the answers.

About TILL SUMMER DO US PART (Coming 6/3/2025):

I got what I wanted. I became buddy-buddy with my boss in an instant. But the cost will be hefty…finding a husband by tomorrow. 

Scottie Price just started a new job, and it’s a real sausage fest. She’s the only woman on a team filled with Brads and Chads. Expecting a bachelor pad atmosphere, she is quickly corrected when she finds out everyone is happily married. 

In an effort to impress her boss, Scottie mentions her nonexistent husband in a company meeting. But eagle-eyed Chad points out her lack of wedding ring. Panicked, Scottie creates a story about her unhappy marriage. Unfortunately for Scottie, her boss has a solution – a one-on-one session with the best marriage counselor in the Northeast, who happens to be her boss’s husband. 

With no way out of her lie, Scottie agrees to see him. Frantic, she calls in help from her best friend who sets her up with his brother, an improv-obsessed millionaire. 

Enter Wilder Wells. More than happy to take on the job, he teaches Scottie the main rule of improv: Always say yes. But the rule backfires during the session when Wilder signs them up for an eight-day summer marriage camp with all of Scottie’s co-workers where she’ll have to share a cabin with her way-too-handsome fake husband.
