BLURB:
Carolyn, lonely and heartbroken after being dumped by yet another boyfriend who told her she needs to loosen up in bed, escapes her empty apartment. On the night of a full moon she visits Minerva’s Mystic Museum.

Minerva recognizes her pain and provides her with the opportunity to change her life. The full moon has chosen Carolyn as a mystic walker.

Carolyn’s dormant sexuality is awakened by three handsome shape-shifters. Jacob, caring and nurturing, lures her into his world. Milo, impetuous and rough, awakens unknown desire. Sven, cold and reserved, tests her mettle. Will she choose to walk on the wild side with the wolf pack and become their female? Will she be able to convince Sven that she is worthy and should be given the opportunity to join the pack? Will Sven’s fear of losing another mate destroy the future of the pack? Or will Carolyn choose to return to the normal life she’d come to see as her due?



Here is the premise for the Mystic Museum Series

Minerva’s Mystic Museum is located in New York City. Every full moon the “powers that be” choose someone from the visitors of the museum. This someone, known as the mystic walker, will be the hero/heroine of the novel. The “powers” select someone they feel deserves a second chance, or just a chance to follow their destiny. Minerva, the curator and caretaker of the museum meets the chosen mystic walker. Through the magic that has been entrusted to her, Minerva supplies them with the opportunity to change their lives.

TEASER / EXCERPT:

 “How can I get out of here? I have to go back.” Her eyes darted, looking anywhere except at him. She seemed to realize she wasn’t where she had been, but she wasn’t afraid.

“You want to leave? After making love like that, you want to leave?” He couldn’t believe it. He wouldn’t believe it.

She looked at him. He could see desire and interest lingering in her eyes, a kind of primal need that matched his own. He was sure if the light was better, her complexion would be flushed deep pink with mortification. If being embarrassed was the problem, it would be easily fixed.

“Yes,” she said with little conviction.

“I don’t know. We can ask Sven. He may know. You’ll have to come with me so we can find out.” He jerked his head to the side, indicating the direction they should go. He waited a moment to gauge her reaction. She looked like a scared rabbit. Did she want to bolt?

It was a chance he had to take. Sometimes the only way to catch a fish is to give it some line. He turned and started to walk away. It was one of the most difficult things he’d done in his life.

BLURB:
 Leslie Braddock feels responsible for her husband’s death. She is having trouble reentering the dating scene. Leslie travels back in time where she meets Sir James.

Sir James Winford is a three-time widower. He believes he is cursed and is certain death to any woman he loves. He has vowed never to love again.

Emily, the ghost of Sir James's first wife has unfinished business, and still lingers at Winford Manor. She wants to see her husband happy, and she wants to bring her murderer to justice.

Rose has loved Sir James since childhood. She must live with the unspeakable things she has done trying to make James see her as more than a child. She believes she is close to achieving that goal when Leslie shows up.

Leslie and Sir James share the experience of losing a loved one. Will Leslie be the woman to break the curse? Or will she be just another victim.



TEASER / EXCERPT:

Leslie closed the door, turned, and leaned back against it. She glared at her roommate, Stephanie.

“What? Did I do something?” Stephanie asked in her British accent. Stephanie was sitting in the oversize loveseat that sat in front of the small television set. Her feet were resting on the coffee table. She had a container of ice cream in her lap and a spoon in her hand. She pressed the mute button on the remote control.

“No, it’s not you. It’s men! They’re the same here as they were in the States.”

“What do you mean?” Stephanie put a spoonful of the cold treat into her mouth.

“What happened to the first kiss being special? Every guy I’ve dated since David died has been interested in only one thing. He wants to get his tongue down my throat, and his hands in my pants, before he even knows my name. This guy called me babe all night. It was our first date for God’s sake. Couldn’t he wait until the second one before he had his hands all over me?”

“It’s sad, but that’s the way it is, luv.” Stephanie eyed up the empty spoon before digging in the carton for more.

“It shouldn’t be. There has to be somebody out there who’s not like that.”

“Tell you what, next Saturday let’s go out to the Gypsy camp at Winford Estates. We can have our fortunes read. I went there once before, the woman was really good. Maybe she can tell you if you’re going to meet him.” Stephanie put the spoon in her mouth. She rolled her eyes to the back of her head, expressing her pleasure.

“Saturday sounds good to me.” At least I won’t have to worry about another groping date.

Leslie pushed away from the door and headed for her bedroom. She stripped and showered. Before going to bed she stood in front of the dresser. She looked at her lonely reflection in the mirror. She picked up the picture she kept on the dresser. She gently caressed the glass covering the picture. She and David vowed to take pictures of their life and the family they made together. She didn’t have many pictures of her family, and now everyone was gone. Her father died when she was in college. Her mother passed away shortly after she married David. She was an only child and wasn’t close to her only aunt. She sometimes wondered at that. She and David took the picture in her hand to start their family album. There would be no album.

The car crash took his life. He had been driving, but she still felt responsible. She wanted to go to the movies that night. He didn’t. She was the one that should have died. Instead she had a bum leg. It had been broken in a number of places, and the large scar on her thigh would keep her from winning any beauty pageants. She didn’t care about the way her leg looked or even that it still hurt five years later. She missed her husband.

Anonymous
By Loc Glin
Heat Rating: SCORCHING
Word Count: 21,305 words
Categories: Erotic Contemporary Romance (MF), HEA


BLURB:
Jennifer Hartstrum has trouble with men. Her relationship with an abusive father left her with a speech impediment that flares up only when she dates. Her friend talks her into trying an exciting new dating experience, the Anonymous Club, a place where a date is an adventure and fantasies can come true. One must choose an alias, and anonymity is guaranteed.

Andrew Martin is looking for a woman who can keep up with him outside of the bedroom as well as in bed. He tries the Anonymous Club with low expectations.

When Jennifer and Andrew meet, it is Chemistry 101. Have they found what they are looking for? In a world of aliases and mystery, is anyone really who they say they are? What happens when anonymity is good for one but not the other?


TEASER / EXCERPT:

Teaser:

“What did you choose for tonight?” Megan asked, standing in the doorway to Jennifer’s bedroom.

“The Librarian.”

“Figures.”

“What do you mean by that?” Jennifer asked as she stepped on the stool and reached for the top shelf of the closet.

“Where do you work? Oh that’s right, a bookstore.”

“Cut me some slack. I’ve tried The Stewardess, On the Ranch, and The Fireman. I think I deserve a break from the unusual,” she said as she grabbed the shoe box.

“I’m sorry they didn’t turn out very well for you, Jen. They sounded like fun to me. “

“They weren’t that bad. I just wasn’t expecting the guys to be ‘acting the part’ so to speak. Once I got past that I was okay. I’m just glad you can blackball names. I don’t want to waste my time with any of them again. At least they were all gentlemen and accepted no for an answer when the subject of sex came up at the end of the night. ”

“I knew they would be. I’ll see you later. George is waiting for me. Good luck and have some fun tonight. I won’t wait up for you this time.”

Jennifer envied Megan her relationship with George. It wasn’t perfect, but they did seem to be able to talk to each other, and they had things in common. She hoped to find that someday.

She left the house in her sweatpants and T-shirt. The makeup and wardrobe artists would change it all anyway.

BLURB:

The odds are against him, but Jerin will find a way! With or without the gene Kaley will be his…

On Setera, only one in four hundred thousand is born possessing the cryan gene—a gene essential to the survival of the Seteran race. Jerin and the others like him are duty bound to find the match to that gene somewhere in the universe, for it can no longer be found on Setera. With no clear instructions on how this task is to be accomplished it is a daunting undertaking, like finding a needle in a haystack.

Jerin’s assigned quadrant is Earth. After twelve years of searching he is beginning to lose hope, until the answer hits him over the head with a frying pan. Now all he has to do is convince this beautiful, feisty woman to follow him to another universe in a galaxy far far away.


TEASER / EXCERPT:

“I am an alien. Setera is in the Onaris One solar system.”

She stared at him for a long moment and then laughed.

“You’re kidding, right?” She searched his face. “You don’t look like you are kidding.” She sounded frightened.

He squeezed her hands trying to reassure her.

“Is this some kind of a joke?” Her lips began to tremble.

He wanted to take her into his arms and comfort her, but he knew he shouldn’t. The truth was beginning to sink in.

“No, it’s not a joke.” He tried to sound reassuring.

“Then you’re a liar. You’ve been lying to me all this time.” Panic lived in every one of the words. Her face appeared horror stricken.

“I don’t lie.”

He watched her struggle with her thoughts.

“I know that,” she said as her eyes closed and she slid off the chair and on to the floor.

TEASER / EXCERPT:

Adam had never in his life been jealous, but he was consumed by that emotion now. Thoughts of doing bodily harm to every man that danced with his wife and held her in their arms crossed his mind. He wanted to forbid her to dance again, at least with a man other than him. She needed to understand that, as long as she was his wife, no man would be allowed to touch her. He wanted to make these things clear to her, but he couldn’t because Arun would touch her. He knew that as surely as he knew he must breathe if he wished to live. Hopefully she would be the type of woman raised to be true to and obedient of her husband’s wishes. If he demanded things of her, then when Arun touched her, she would be forced by her husband’s own commands to accept the advances of another man.

Arun was bound to make advances. Adam could not control what Arun did anymore than Arun could control what Adam did. Knowledge of each other’s actions with no way to intervene was its own kind of torture. He spent the evening trying to come up with a solution.

The solution was the truth.

TEASER EXCERPT

At the dinner table, Harold tapped Nate’s shoulder. “Mind if I sit here, Buddy?”

“Buddy?” Nate’s startled face looked up, and then he stood, pushing the chair back as he did so. “You feeling okay? Since when am I your buddy?”

“I guess I should apologize for the way I’ve been treating you,” Harold muttered.

“Apologize? To me? Did I hear you right?” Nate’s shocked expression disappeared as he looked down at Mika, and then back at Harold. “I get it now. No problem, Buddy, she’s already told me where I stand with her.”

Nate put his hand on Harold’s shoulder and leaned close. “I wish you luck. She’s really a nice person. I’m surprised it’s taken you this long to figure it out,” he whispered in Harold’s ear before he moved away.

He looked at Nate strangely. Nate was being civil and he didn’t have to be. It made Harold ashamed of the way he’d treated him in the past. He was going to have to try to rectify that. Maybe he’d misjudged Nate.

Harold nodded, “Thanks,” he said.

“It’s nice sitting next to Mika. You’re going to like it Uncle Harold. She always smells good, and she’s funny, too,” Billy said.

“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” Harold smiled at Billy and winked at Mika.

Billy leaned forward so he could see around Mika. Cupping his hand around the side of his mouth, he whispered, “I thought you were mad at her. You always said mean things to her.”

“I did, didn’t I?”

Billy nodded. “Uh huh.”

Harold leaned in front of Mika, too. Lowering his head conspiratorially, he asked, “Do you think she’ll forgive me?”

Billy looked up at Mika. Mika nodded. “I think so,” Billy whispered.

“Should I ask her now?” Another nod from Billy. Harold straightened up to a sitting position. Taking Mika’s hand, he asked, “Can you forgive me for being so mean to you? I promise to make it up to you.” Her hand felt so right in his, so he did what was in his heart. He lifted it to his lips.

Mika gasped. Apparently she hadn’t expected him to express his feelings so openly.

“I think you scared her, Uncle Harold.”

“He didn’t scare me, Billy, he surprised me.” She squeezed Harold’s fingers and smiled at him.

“I hope to continue surprising you for a long time.” He was going to put his heart out there. He had to let her know she was important to him.

Rowena Milestone, corporate executive, has an accomplished career. Yet one thing eludes her. Try as she might she can’t seem to have an orgasm even though she likes sex. Her position in the corporate man’s world tends to intimidate her dates. They perform well enough in bed, but they just don’t push her over the edge, until she meets Stephen.

Stephen Sloan has a secret. He belongs to a very special, no holds barred, anything goes sex club. He never thought he’d meet anyone like Rowena there, so he wanted to believe her outrageous story that she didn’t know how she’d gotten there. When she disappeared without a trace he knew she’d been telling the truth. Now armed with three pieces of information he is determined to find her.

Rowena was devastated when the curator of the museum couldn’t help. Minerva had said, "If the universe is willing, he will come to you." Fat chance she has of that happening.


Here is the premise for the Mystic Museum Series

Minerva’s Mystic Museum is located in New York City. Every full moon the “powers that be” choose someone from the visitors of the museum. This someone, known as the mystic walker, will be the hero/heroine of the novel. The “powers” select someone they feel deserves a second chance, or just a chance to follow their destiny. Minerva, the curator and caretaker of the museum meets the chosen mystic walker. Through the magic that has been entrusted to her, Minerva supplies them with the opportunity to change their lives.

TEASER / EXCERPT:

Stephen opened his eyes. He half expected this evening and the woman to turn out to be a dream. But she was still in his arms, soft and warm.

What an unexpected surprise. After all these years, he’d never expected to find a woman like Rowena here. This was his last night, and he’d decided that he wanted to get around the no fraternizing outside of the club rule. He’d also decided that he wanted to believe Rowena’s impossible story. He wanted to see her again, and not in here.

He lay there and contemplated the night so far. She’d changed over the course of the evening. The cold bitch that had been strung up in chains when he entered the room had become this incredibly warm and vulnerable creature in his arms, someone who gave as much as she received. The truth was in her eyes. He’d seen the same realization dance across her face, the same feeling of oneness that he’d experienced. He’d never felt this way about any woman. He’d never experienced this kind of connection. He didn’t want to leave her. He wanted to have her in his arms forever. Unfortunately, nature called and he needed to get washed up. He kissed the top of her head, and she stirred briefly as he left the bed.

After showering, he looked at his scruffy face in the mirror. “I suppose I should shave, but I’m sure she wants to clean up,” he said to his reflection.

He returned to the bed and was surprised to find her still sleeping. He kissed her eyelids and nose. Her hand went up to swat away the nuisance. When she touched his face, she opened her eyes and she smiled. It was a lovely sight.

“I was afraid I’d dreamed it,” she whispered. Her eyes were filled with tenderness.
