I’m happy to be participating in the Rave Reviews Book Club BACK-TO-SCHOOL BOOK & BLOG
BLOCK PARTY and I’m very excited to have the opportunity to profile
some of my books. Although I branch out to other genres and styles from time to
time, I tend to write mystery/crime/suspense novels, usually with a theme of
some sort of injustice that has occurred. I love to write so the list of books is
constantly growing!
My Books:
Available as ebook and paperback. Links are to Amazon but most books also available on Barnes & Noble, Kobo, iTunes, Smashwords, and more.

When eighteen-year-old Cynthia Holt takes a job at a former
sanitarium, now operating as an assisted living center, she discovers there is
something more occurring than providing the elderly with housing and care.
Something very strange is going on behind the locked door of Room 913. After
she is warned to stay away from the room and to not discuss it or the occupant
with her co-workers, she is even more intrigued. And suspicious. Letting her
curious nature guide her, she immediately begins asking questions. When she
finds that Room 913 has been closed off; locked and sealed for many years, her
curiosity turns to concern. Though rumors abound, no one seems inclined to talk
about it. Not giving up so easily, Cynthia persists in her inquisitive pursuit
until she finds out the truth - or does she?

The justice system is just a system, not a just system.
Sentenced to fifteen years in prison for a crime he didn't
commit, Ethan Rafferty has one thing on his mind—payback! With his time up, the
ex-con is free to pursue his mission of revenge. The District Attorney, Mariana
Clark, who, during the trial suppressed evidence that would've exonerated him,
is the focus of his vengeance. Intent on making her life miserable, Ethan employs
a variety of tactics to antagonize and torment the woman. Unable to retaliate
through the courts, considering her role in the previous trial, Mariana decides
to fight fire with fire. Soon, their feud escalates to a point where neither
imagined it would go.
Which one will prevail, Ethan or Mariana? Who will win? Can
either? Or, are both of them bound to a destiny produced by a Miscarriage of
Justice?

What would you do if Child Protective Services showed up on
your doorstep with an army of Sheriff’s deputies and tried to remove your
three-year-old from your home? Knowing there's no justification for their
action and the court documents they presented are fabricated, would you stand
by or fight to protect your child?
Over My Dead Body
explores the deadly reaction and consequences when a protective father,
Jeff Blake, tries to prevent the state from
taking his daughter. The director of Child Protective Services uses his
position to exact a personal vendetta in removing three-year-old Ashley from
the Blake’s home.
The situation quickly becomes violent as Jeff resorts to the
only response he feels he has. By the end of the short encounter, three people
are dead. Ironically, Ashley is still taken, so the tragic fiasco gained
nothing.
Matters are further complicated when Amy, the wife and
mother, winds up in a mental ward due to the trauma she witnessed in her home.
Jeff and Amy’s daughter is placed in temporary foster care, while the family’s
attorneys attempt to salvage what they can and re-unite the family. The police,
as well as the Courts, understandably, are not too concerned with the needs of
the family and it seems the entire justice system is against them.
Complete with many twists of fate, the story looks at the common
problems of a typical family caught between love and the law.
by Bruce A. Borders
When a teenage boy, who thinks he knows it all, leaves home
in search of a better life, he finds out the hard way what everyone must learn—growing
up isn’t an easy thing to do.
Leaving home at fifteen, Kyle Davis’ path to adulthood takes
him on an eventful ride, and at times a dangerous one. His firsthand
experiences with the cruel realities of a callous world drive home the point
that he has a lot to learn and a long ways to go.
Unwilling to admit his mistakes, he flounders a while before
finally accepting life for what it is—hard work. It takes considerably more
time for him to reach the point of going home and apologizing. That’s when he
discovers the world didn’t stop to wait for him. Home isn’t quite the way he
remembers it, and he sees how drastically things can change.
Still, certain things remain the same; principles and values
are a constant. It isn’t a persons age, location or where they are in life that
determines when they’ve become an adult. Kyle realizes The Journey is more than
merely miles traveled. The road to maturity, whether literal or figurative,
takes a person only as fast as they are willing to go. Yet, at some point,
everyone has to make The Journey.

All cats can be a little strange! Some might even be crazy!
But it takes a smart cat to pull off some of the things this lovable cat named
Stupid does! Follow his adventures, told in his own words. (Based on the life
of a real cat, who thanks to his head-shaking behavior, earned the nickname of
Stupid).

The Not-So-Politically-Correct Books on Fighting Terrorism.
Cruelly honest and unabashedly patriotic, slightly offensive
but extremely effective, Wynn Garrett is America’s answer to the problem of
domestic terrorism. When the Department of Homeland Security, assigns him the
job of eliminating the terrorist threat by any means necessary, they expect him
to follow a few reasonable guidelines. He turns out to be anything but
reasonable.
A proud American, Wynn Garrett is determined America emerge
victorious, and employs questionable tactics in his personal war on terrorism—much
to the consternation of his superiors in Washington. They constantly attempt to
curb his reckless behavior, but to no avail.
And coming soon...

I love the layout and the look of this site! What a cool way to profile your books. I'm a fan of Author Bruce A. Borders, so I'm sure the titles which I haven't read yet, are just as good as the one I have read (OVER MY DEAD BODY), which is one of my all-time favorites. Good luck today and I wish upon you so many comments and such a lively party, that you are at a loss for words! (Just trying to slow you down on writing all those darned books! LOL).
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the day! You're up alone!
Thanks, Nonnie! Nice to see you here!!!
ReplyDeleteI've got 'Over My Dead Body' on my TBR list and looking forward to reading it. Site looks great - well organised easy to discover everything you have written. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gordon!
DeleteVery nice Bruce. I can even get a rustic wooden shelf to put all your books on. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteLol Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteI'm very intrigued with Inside Room 913, but I'm afraid it'll keep me up at night. (I've become a wuss in my later years). ;-) I agree with Nonnie that Over My Dead Body sounds great, but realistic fiction is too REAL for me. lol! I'm a happily divorced mom with a son, and the idea of someone trying to take him away from me...well, I think I'd lose it. lol!
ReplyDeleteThe Journey sounds GREAT for my students. I teach high school, and many of them are at that rebellious stage where they think that they can make it on their own. I will definitely share your book with them. Maybe it'll knock some sense into them. ;-)
Thanks, Yvette! The Journey was a fun book to write considering I had three teenagers at home at the time!
DeleteI enjoyed Inside Room 913 - it's a mystery, but not scary 😄
DeleteNice post, Bruce. I have Over My Dead Body on my TBR. Inside Room 913, and Miscarriage of Justice both sound intriguing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting!

ReplyDeleteI see an interesting range of books here. Will have to check them out.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll start by reading about Stupid the Cat. I'm a sucker for books with animals.
I do tend to jump genres! Thanks for dropping by!
ReplyDeleteWhat an impressive selection of books! They all sound wonderful. Room 913 has really peaked my interest. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Tammi! Glad you stopped by!
ReplyDeleteGreat party Bruce. I didn't realise you had written so many books! I've just reviewed The Adventures Of Stupid The Cat, which we all loved here. I'm going to add The Journey to my TBR list next.
ReplyDeleteLizzie, thanks for your review! Glad you liked the book. And thanks for dropping by!
DeleteOh Wow, Bruce! You're a book writing factory!!! lol :-D Over my Dead Body is now finally on my TBR list - I'd kind of been shying away from it because of working in the 'family' courts and know these situations all too well from both sides of the fence. However, you come at it from an unusual angle that I know is plausible as the 'authorities' are, regrettably, not always the good guys and I've seen events unfold that are more than 'thriller-worthy' develop all too quickly.
ReplyDeleteWriters should never shy away from showing real life as it is - much kudos to you for doing it so so well! :-)
Thanks, Jan! I get carried away with writing sometimes!
DeleteGreat site, Bruce! I've enjoyed two of your books so far and I like your writing style. It flows well and makes for an entertaining, comfortable read. If I win today, I'd like to try 'Over My Dead Body' or 'Miscarriage of Justice' since I've read 'Inside Room 913' and LOVED it! Have a great blog celebration today!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment!
DeleteNice body of work. Very prolific. I also like people who aren't afraid to try new genres.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm thinking of publishing a few Westerns that I wrote a few years ago. Might have to rewrite them first, though!
DeleteI always enjoy visiting your site, Bruce, and today you did an excellent job of showcasing all of your books! Happily, I've read Inside Room 913 and enjoyed it thoroughly - I'm looking forward to two more that I have on my TBR! Your book trailer is excellent too! Have a great party today and I hope lots of our members buy your great books!
ReplyDeleteThanks, John! And we have our own Nonnie Jules and 4WillsPublishing to thank for the great trailer!
DeleteIt is really nice to see all your books in one place. I have to say it looks like there are ten Bruce Borders. My TBR just got heavier. I enjoyed Inside Room 913 and look forward to the rest.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. Sorry about the TBR!
DeleteWow, you've written quite a few books! I'm intrigued by Adventures of the Stupid Cat. I also want to say thank you for all the support you give all of us in RRBC! Congratulations on your upcoming release!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tara. Your support is appreciated!
DeleteHaven't read any of your books yet but love to read mystery, suspense and crime novels.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting! Sounds like we like the same kind of books.
DeleteHi Bruce. Great blog. I enjoyed reading Inside Room 913, and I must say that Over My Dead Body sounds really good! I hope I win the e-book copy!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stevie! And good luck!
DeleteBruce, you are one heck of a prolific writer. You are now on my radar screen.
ReplyDeleteThank you!

DeleteHey, Bruce, nice site. Thanks for introducing us to your works. Have a sweet ride on your Block Party day, Cowboy.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteHi Bruce! If I don't win Inside Room, I'm buying it! With all these great RRBC reads, when do we have time to write?
ReplyDeleteThanks. Having time to write is always a challenge, isn't it?
DeleteGreat post, Bruce. All of your books are lined up very neat and orderly. Quite a prolific writer. I have Stupid The Cat on my Kindle and soon will read/review it. Best wishes to you on this your blog party.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Beem! Nice to have you stop by!
DeleteLove what you've done with the post and your writing, Bruce. I have "Inside Room 913", "Over My Dead Body" and "The Adventures of Stupid the Cat" in my TBR list and I hope to read them soon. Wow! Lots of books and lots of comments here. Have a great time at your party!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kim!
DeleteGreat blog, Bruce. Miscarriage of Justice sounds like the book for me. That will be my purchase from your blog. Enjoy all the solo attention..
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Brian!
DeleteYou amaze me Bruce. Not only are you an incredible writer, you're also a fantastic musician. Oh to have such talent!! I love your blog ... and the journey.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gwen! Always nice to have your support!
DeleteGreat post Bruce - I need to finish some of my reviews (for books I've read already) and then some of the ones I started and didn't finish but I made a note for "Over My Dead Body" - sounds like a good one to have "TBR"
ReplyDeleteThanks! Hope you like Over My Dead Body!
DeleteBruce,
ReplyDeleteI'm picking up Adventures of Stupid The Cat today! I need some stupid cat stories right now :) Good luck at your party--and when I'm ready for serious, your books are right up my alley!
Thanks! The "Stupid" book was intended as a Children's book but adults seem to like it as well!
DeleteHi Bruce, I hope you're enjoying the party and thank you for introducing your books! What's inside Room 913? I'm looking forward to finding out!
ReplyDeleteThanks! It is a fantastic party! As for what's Inside Room 913, well...
DeleteGreat showcase of your work. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Marc!
DeleteHaving trouble working out which part of the world you're from... (that's a Brit being ironic). I've got that song in my head now - bit of an ear worm that one: there'll never be another Johnny Cash.. Thanks Bruce!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steven!
DeleteHi Bruce. I am impressed with the number of books you have written. Isn't it nice to be able to showcase them? Where else can you do that except at RRBC. I've got two of them and reviewed one of them. I have a long TBR list but anxious to get started on "Inside Room 913." Lets get this party started!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Shirley! And thanks for your continued support!
DeleteHi Bruce. Love your site, & really liked reading about your books. Wynn Garrett sounds like my kind of guy! Lol I'm so glad you joined the Back To School tour.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rhani! My kids liked the Wynn Garrett books, but they may be a little violent for some - just warning you!
ReplyDeleteConsidering the kind of world that Decker lives in, I think I can handle Wynn. Lol I'm looking forward to the read! On my way to Anazon now.
DeleteFantastic post, Bruce! It was great to learn more about some of your work, apart from what I have read. I hope it has been a hugely successful day for you!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Bethany! The day has been great!
DeleteImpressive books, Bruce! Enjoyed "Over My Dead Body" and I'm looking forward to reading more of these, especially the new series!
ReplyDeleteThanks Christa!
DeleteHi Bruce - very cool site as many others have remarked! Thanks for hosting the RRBC Back to School Blog/Block Party - these opportunities to meet some of hte member/authors are terrific!
ReplyDeleteBest regards and good luck with your new book - ML
Thanks, Michael!
