Okay, so you all know me as a nice girl, right? Until you read my books, that is, lols!
The things in my head scare even me sometimes 🙂
Yep, I’m afraid I’m not the sweet little thing you all thought … I’ve killed people (plenty, in fact), brought evil to the tranquil Forest of Dean, and gotten up to all sorts in some sexy Interludes!
If I haven’t scared you off yet, you can read on for a quick peek at each of my books and where to find the murder, sexy times, and general mayhem! 🙂
You will find two of my books on upcoming Kindle Countdown Deals!

NIGHT NURSE—contemporary romance in 7000 words. Denise has only weeks left to live. What constitutes life, though? What fills the yawning hours of empty days? Who are you once the chemo and the cancer have stripped you bare? What to do?—Go out on a slow fizzle, or with a big bang?

Slices of Soul is a collection of contemporary poetry from author Harmony Kent that will both delight and call for deeper reflection. ‘Phantoms’ gives a gritty account of pain that you can never catch. ‘Enough’ expresses the contentment of Zen. ‘Diamonds’ shows the beauty to be found on a drab and rainy day. While ‘The Alchemist’ shows you how a guitar can turn lead into gold. This wonderful arrangement of fifty poems takes you from the abstract of Zen to the melody of music, and will reach into your mind, your heart, and your soul.

Finding Katie
I killed someone, you see. I killed the girl, who used to be me.
I’m Kate … Kate Charlesworth. I’m seventeen, and self-harming. This time I cut too deep, and I’m in hospital. I hadn’t meant for it to be so bad—it just sort of happened. I needed a lot of distraction that day.
You’ve had bad days, right? Days it hurts too much to think. Days you just wanna stay in bed. Days when the world needs to go away for a while. Right?
What do you do when you’ve hit rock bottom? When there’s nowhere left to turn?
This one little mistake lands me back on a psych unit—the last place I wanna be. Only this time, the nurse I end up with isn’t content to stick on a band-aid and send me home. She wants me to face my demons. But to do that, I’ll have to face who I am … who I used to be … I’ll have to find Katie.

Elemental Earth
(The Mysteries:
Book 1)
YA Fantasy Fiction
“You turned the god of gnomes into a garden ornament?”
Sarah looked closely, but couldn’t tell if her dad was annoyed or amused—perhaps he was both …
Whilst 15 year old Sarah may be struggling to regain her feet, after being ripped from her everyday mundane life and ending up in a whole new dimension, she still knows how to have a bit of fun along the way. The Earth Elemental isn’t the only one whose feathers she manages to ruffle, and it’s only been four days. Meanwhile, her best friend is missing, and big trouble is brewing. She soon has a lot more to worry about than what happened to her phone or iPod, or even how much of an idiot Caleb obviously thinks she is.
Elemental Earth is the first book in The Mysteries series, and is aimed at Young Adults. Even if you’ve already reached an age where the young ones might call you ‘old enough’, if you’re still young at heart then you’re bound to enjoy these books just as much as the next—err—younger adult.
Age aside, perhaps we should be more worried about what further havoc Sarah’s antics might be about to wreak on the universe as we know it? We’d probably all be sleeping a lot more soundly if she’d only stuck to applied maths and the odd pillow fight. But no, sadly the lure of the proverbial rabbit hole proved just a tad too much. And now she’s taken the plunge, there’s no turning back.

The Glade
“Readers who like to curl up during the long winter evenings and feel the delicious chill of fear running up and down their spines need only turn to The Glade to have all their expectations fulfilled.
The Glade is a horror story in the mould of Stephen King, and rendered the more so by its faint echoes of Pet Cemetery and the even stronger resonance of the pervasive malignancy of It.” —Review by Brian O’Hare
This gripping, edge-of-your-seat mystery/thriller will have you thinking twice about booking that idyllic cottage in the country. Nothing in this woodland paradise within the Forest of Dean is what it seems.
The Wenstrops have it all: health, wealth, and happiness. Until everything falls apart. Helen gets arrested for murder, and yet is either unable or unwilling to give a defence. During her detention, vital evidence goes missing and tensions run high.
Meanwhile, in the woods, malignant forces gather power.
This sensational second novel by acclaimed author Harmony Kent will have you alternately laughing, crying, and gripping the edge of your seat as this roller-coaster ride of a plot unfolds. It will keep you guessing through its many twists and turns, and hijack your attention right up until you turn the final page. This book has it all: murder, intrigue, the supernatural, a broken marriage, a love affair, courage against impossible odds, suspense, and high drama.

The Battle for Brisingamen
My first book
There is a World not too Far Away …
Beneath the north sea a land of magic lies undetected. The lives of many are drawn inexorably closer together in a race against time, as both energy companies and evil beings attempt to destroy the magic which is protecting not just this land but all worlds. The unwitting protagonists have no idea of how suddenly and irrevocably their lives are about to change.
It is a race against time to try and recover the lost necklace, Brisingamen, which holds the ancient power of the Goddess Freya, and to prevent the undersea drilling from taking place. Are Aart, Matthias, Gemma and Dirck up to the challenges they now must face?
Here there be Dragons, and all manner of Creatures …

Hi Harmony,
Great website and great books. Hope you had a wonderful day. Thanks for all the support you give to indie writers. It is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Gordon! I love supporting you all 🙂 So pleased you like the website and books 🙂
For some strange reason, your site won’t let my three previous posts through-Said it was spam. Love the sound of your books: murder, sexy things and general mayhem.
Glad you love the sound of my books, SJ, and so pleased you finally got through … thanks for persevering! 🙂
Interesting range of books.
Thank you, Jo 🙂

Hey Harmony!! You have been a busy girl indeed! I think I should move to Cornwall and check things out!
That would be awesome, Mary! We do seem to be a creative county, lols. Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Great post – haha there was certainly no “nice girl” in the scary things you wrote into The Glade… and I think I might have to be getting my hands on one or two more of your books before long… I think Interludes is high on that list 🙂
Ha! Yep, they say it’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for! lols. Am sure you’ll love Interludes 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Dawn! 🙂

Hi Harmony! Great to be back on your blog site – beautifully done and organized. I very much enjoyed learning a bit about your latest WIP as well. You are always blogging and tweeting and posting for everybody else I hope you take the moment to enjoy all the great buzz that will come to your blog today from the RRBC Back to School Blog Tour – enjoy! MikeL
Thanks so much, Michael. I am overwhelmed at how many of you have dropped by and left such wonderful comments today. I definitely am enjoying all the great buzz! 🙂
Hey Harmony! I loved learning more about your library. I knew of only a few before today, and I’m glad to know there’s more especially since I too tend to follow the muse rather than box myself into a single genre stream. Loved the mix of content to get the word out about your book babies too =)
Hi Janelle! Hey, another out of the box gal, lols 🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by!
Great blog site, thanks for hosting “RRBC Back to School Book & Blog Block Party!” I am used to scary minds as I am married for almost 52 years to the awesome writer JoAnn Wentzel. She has two books published on Amazon and both are on sale for 99 cents. Thanks again for being one of the blogs for the Block Party.
Dan
Thanks, Dan! Glad you’re not easily scared 🙂
Nice lineup of your books and different genre’s. A girl after my own heart. I haven’t written in any one genre either. Whatever comes to my mind to say, I just say it. I have a couple of your books and the one on countdown. Congratulations! Your blog is nicely laid out too. How can I compete with all this? lol
No competing necessary! Thanks so much for stopping by, Shirley. You keep on writing what you have to say 🙂
Great blog, Harmony! I loved reading Interludes, so I’ve seen the sexy seductress side of you. Perhaps I need to take a look at another side. How awesome to be able to write so many different genres! Happy Blog Party!
Thanks, Jan! And thank you for signing up to my newsletter! I wonder if my multiple-genres indicate multiple personalities???!!!! lols 🙂
Harmony~
I am totally amazed at your prolific writing skills. For me, just writing this short comment is a stretch.
You are a great writer.
Thanks for sharing~
Richie Gerber
Aww, thanks, Richie. Your kind comments mean so much 🙂
I love your covers so much and can’t wait to finish reading your books! The trailers are super cool, too, and I plan on having some more made. They are a lot of fun and make great long term promotional material.
Thanks so much!
Thank, Lincoln! Of all my covers, I think THE GLADE remains my personal fave 🙂 The trailers sure are great long-term material 🙂
Awesome post, Harmony!! Great way to celebrate our Block Party!!! Thanks for having us by!!
It’s my absolute pleasure to have you all over, Mar! Thanks for dropping in 🙂
Hi Harmony. It was so much fun stopping by your blog and reading about all of your books. I think that I absolutely must read the Glade when I am caught up a bit on my list. ?

Diversified writer and amazing Retweeter!
Thanks, Neil 🙂

Wow- enjoyed a peek into the many faces of Harmony Kent. Love the video book trailers and the huge variety of your work. Need to purchase Finding Katie very soon. As a former foster parent I dealt with the cutting issue. Thanks for a wonderful blog.
Thanks, Jo. So glad you’ve enjoyed the peek 🙂
Hey, Harmony! I love your post! I read Interludes and really liked it. I have Polish Your Prose and Finding Kate on my kindle, and I’m pretty sure that I also have Elemental Earth on it as well. I look forward to reading all of them eventually. You know how the TBR list goes! 😉 Slices of Soul sounds really good to me as well, so I might just have to add that one as well. Lol! 🙂
Lols, Yvette! Looks like I’ve taken over your Kindle! So thrilled you like my books so much, and appreciate you stopping by and supporting me 🙂
Great site! What I like about you, Harmony, is that you refuse to be labeled or categorized! I can’t wait to read your erotic fiction. Enjoy your time in the spotlight!
Thanks so much, Linda! So true; I don’t fit into any boxes! My mission in life is to remain unpredictable, lols 🙂
For those of you who are new to Harmony’s marvellous, mad universe, let me tell you that there’s no such thing as a dud Harmony Kent book! 😀 Nope! Not even the serious one – Polish Your Prose! 😉 And her book trailers are all great too!
You’ve done a lovely job of showcasing your HUGELY varied body of work for us, Harmz – hope you get loads of new fans and great sales on the back of today. <3

Hi, Harmony. What a great selection! I, too, am a multi-genre author, so I can appreciate both the drive and the determination that has gone into your work. Thanks for sharing with us.
Thanks, Staci. Yes, sometimes it seems it would be much easier to be easily categorisable, but that’s just not me, lols 🙂
Wow Harmony! This is also a blast! :D. You have pulled out all the studs. I like the look of your blog. Great outing! I wish you all the success you wish yourself. Congratulations. 🙂
Thanks so much, Joy! As ever, you bring joy wherever you go 🙂
Wow, you really have a diverse collection of books and genres, Harmony. I’ve read two of these so far and enjoyed them both. I positively LOVE the opening line from the section you chose for ELEMENTAL EARTH, LOL.
Priceless! I still enjoy reading YA fiction when its done well. I’ll have to add Elemental to my reading list!
Thanks, Mae. So glad you love my books. I am now writing (at last) the sequel to Elemental Earth … yay! 🙂 … Yep, that line gave me a giggle 🙂
Loved reading Interludes! I have at least 3 of your other books in my kindle and really need to get to them! Have fun today Harmony!

You are an amazing writer, Harmony. And, your trailers are equally fantastic. Seeing your list of books and mix of genres, evokes awe. Truly incredible. All the best on your Blog Party!!
Aww, thank you, Gwen! When I made my first trailer it was such a learning curve, but I discovered a love and artistic talent I never knew I had 🙂 Now, I enjoy making the trailers almost as much as writing!! 🙂
What a great way to start a day. With a party! Some intriguing books here Harmony. I have a couple of them on my kindle and am about to start reading one today. Can’t wait!
Yay! I could get used to starting my day with a party, lols! Thank you for grabbing a couple of my books, Lizzie, and I hope they give you hours of entertainment 🙂

Thanks for stopping by, Beth! Thrilled that you loved Interludes and The Glade 🙂 Both my favourites, with Finding Katie a close third, lols. 🙂
Hi Harmony,
Wow! So prolific – such diverse genres. I was chuckling reading your comments above about your ‘sexy books’ melt the kindle -hellfire sounds like it would explode.
A while ago I read your editing guide ‘Polish your Prose’ and I highly recommend this to other authors (no matter what level as it contains sage writing advice).
Best wishes with your Blog party and your future writing projects,
Wendy
Thanks so much, Wendy! Glad you found Polish Your Prose helpful, and I appreciate the recommendation 🙂 Yes, I did have a giggle writing the intro! 🙂
Wow, Harmony! You certainly have me interested with the variety of genres presented. I’ve read all your offering in ‘Rave Soup …’ and look forward to getting familiar with your poetry. Thanks for a truly awesome blog post. All the best for today. 🙂
So glad you enjoyed it, Maretha! And thrilled you like what you’ve read 🙂
I enjoyed this visit! You have written so many different types of books that are intriguing. I added a couple to my kindle. This tour has become like going into a book store for me, I just can’t help myself. I loved your humor and post, thanks!
Oh wow, thank you! Yes, something tells me I’ll be running away from my growling TBR list before the month is out, lols! 🙂
wow… so many wonderful reads to choose from… thanks for sharing… especially loved your murderous warnings… muahahaha… good luck on all your wordage :p
Thanks, Tracey! Yep, I had to give the warnings cos, ya know, I can’t be held responsible for any heart attacks or dying laughing … mwahahahaha 🙂
no one likes a vague disclaimer… lol… keep rocking the wordage
Thanks for a fun filled look into your work. It’s a genre I enjoy and your humor shines through in your post.
A great way to kick off day 2. Well done!
Thanks, Suzanne! Yep, I definitely land in trouble with that humour a time or two, lols! 🙂
Hi Harmony, Love your block party post. I read FINDING KATIE not too long ago and loved it. It is a very powerful story. Good luck today.
Aww, thanks, Lori! I’m thrilled that you loved Finding Katie. That girl hijacked me until I’d finished writing her tale, lols 🙂
