Each day this month, meet a Rhode Island author! Comment on the blog post for a chance to win our Grand Prize (a $200 Amazon gift card) or our Bonus Prize (a $100 Amazon gift card).

Tabitha Lord is an award-winning author of science fiction. Her novel Horizon, has won six independent book awards, including the Writer’s Digest Grand Prize in 2016.
The first book in a three-book series, Horizon follows Caeli Crys, on the run after the genocide of her empathic people. When she witnesses a spaceship crash near her hidden camp, and feels the injured pilot suffering from miles away, she can’t help but risk discovery to save his life.
As the injured pilot recovers, Caeli shares the horror of her past and her fear for the future. When the command ship Horizon sends rescue, the pilot convinces Caeli to leave with him. But his world is as treacherous as hers–full of spies, interplanetary terrorist plots, and political intrigue. Soon the Horizon team is racing to defend an outlying planet from a deadly enemy, and Caeli’s unique skills may just give them the edge they need to save it.
Tabitha also writes action and adventure romance under the pen name Maggie Clare. Sing for Me is the first book in her Tactical Solutions series. In this novel, Jake Evans sees Fiona Flynn singing in a dive bar and is instantly attracted. Neither of them is looking for a relationship, but the chemistry between them can’t be denied.
Their sweet, sexy, long-distance love affair comes to a screeching halt when Jake is injured overseas. Wrecked body and soul, Jake can’t imagine a different kind of life, for himself or with Fiona. But when the unthinkable happens, and Fiona’s life hangs in the balance, Jake will have to rediscover his inner warrior in order to save her.


Tabitha has generously offered a gift copy of either Horizon or Sing for Me to one lucky winner (are you sci-fi or romance?!). Just comment on this blog post for a chance to win the book, as well as a chance to win the Grand Prize or the Bonus Prize.
Tabitha’s Horizon science fiction series has received seven independent book awards including the Writer’s Digest Grand Prize in 2016. In addition to writing novels and short fiction, Tabitha is a partner and senior writer for Book Club Babble and managing editor for the Inkitt Writer’s Blog. Recently, she’s tried her hand writing romantic suspense under the pen name, Maggie Clare. She lives in Rhode Island with her husband, four kids, and several lovable fur babies.

I didn’t know that Tabitha also wrote under a pen name. Sci-Fi and romance – that’s cool!
