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:

Sven had just about as much as he could take. The guys were breaking his balls about being clumsy. They teased him about spending a lot of time with Carolyn. The woman treated him like an invalid. Two days he’d been stuck in this cabin with her while the guys went on their rounds. Today he was getting out of this God damned bed whether she liked it or not.

He could barely stand it anymore. Her scent filled each breath, torturing him. She moved around the cabin efficiently and gracefully. She was a delight to watch. She was pleasing to his eyes. He liked her body and her face. She wasn’t beautiful, nor was she overly endowed. She was just perfect. It was becoming difficult to control his desire for her. Heaven help him, he wanted her. There was no doubt in his mind about that. His body reacted to her slightest touch. The tension between them was thick as molasses and just as sweet.

His feet touched the floor just as the soft tapping warned of the door opening.

“And just where do you think you’re going?” Her tone was accusing, that of someone accustomed to chastising errant patients.

“I’m getting up. I can’t stand lying around anymore.” He thought he sounded whiney like a spoiled child.

“So you’re feeling better and you’re bored?” She closed the door behind her.

There was something in the inflection of her voice that warned him he was missing something. He studied her for a moment trying to figure out what it was. It eluded him. So he pushed on. “Yes,” he said, locking onto her eyes, his challenge in the air.

A smile played on her lips. “Good.”

Not the answer he was expecting. He was expecting the mother hen to argue. “Good?” He felt his eyebrows rise, expressing his surprise.

“Oh, yes. I’m quite bored myself. Now that you’re feeling better, I can give in to these unruly urges I’ve been battling.”

“What urges?”

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.

Teaser ~ for Anonymous by Loc Glin

 

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:

Ace entered the room. Shit. She was gorgeous. He wanted to jump her bones right then and there. He controlled the urge. According to the prep card, her name was Cocheta. He wondered if she knew what it meant. “Cocheta?” he said.

“Ace?” she looked up. “Are you sure you’re in the right room?”

“The Librarian, right?” he asked.

“Right,” she said as she closed the book. “You don’t exactly look like you belong here. The tight jeans and Guinea T-shirt don’t quite fit the scenario.”

“I was running late and had to skip wardrobe. I took off my shirt because I spilled coffee on it. See,” he said, showing her the garment.

“Oh.”

“So, what made you choose this scenario?” he asked as he sat down at the table. His erection was a little uncomfortable. Maybe if he got her to sit down so he couldn’t see her legs and that fantastic a**, it might let up a bit. “Have a seat,” he said. He watched her move toward the table. Her shoes clicked on the ceramic tile floor, and the high heels made her hips sway in a seductive way.

“I like books,” she said as she sat across from him and put the book onto the table.

The smile disappeared from her face, and the warm look in her eyes changed just slightly. It was as if she was preparing herself for something unpleasant.

“You’re kidding. That’s just part of the act right?”

“Sorry to disappoint you, but no, I really do like books. Worse than that, I like to read them.”

There was a touch of sarcasm in her words. Ace laughed. “You like to read, and you have spunk. Very refreshing.”

“Refreshing?”

That clearly wasn’t the reply she was expecting. “And totally unexpected. I like books, too, and I’ve been known to read a few myself.”

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:

“My aunt and uncle are due back tomorrow. I can’t wait until you meet them.”

“They can be the witnesses at our wedding.”

“We’ve known each other for less than two months, are you sure you want to marry me?”

Jerin knew that Kaley was the mate he would bring back to Setera with him. He hadn’t actually had a conversation about his mission with her yet. He thought she already understood. The daydream she’d had the day they met had told her of it. In the weeks since, he’d often wondered why they hadn’t been transported. Regardless, he could be happy spending the rest of his life here on Earth with Kaley if he had to. He loved her that much. He wanted to make her his in every way possible.

“I want to marry you here in your world and at home on Setera.”

“Don’t you mean ‘in’ Setera? Where exactly is Setera anyway? I’ve never heard of it.”

Now was as good a time as any to get things out in the open, once and for all. He had to know how she really felt.

“Do you remember the daydream you had the day we met?”

“As clearly as if it was two minutes ago.” She sighed and looked almost sad. “It is my heart’s desire.” Her breath hitched as she tried to control her emotions.

“Do you remember, I said that I could give you that life?”

“Yes, and you are. We are going to be married.”

“Your dream said that we would be married on Setera also.”

“So, is Setera an island or something?” Kaley looked over her shoulder as she was reaching into a kitchen cabinet putting the morning dishes away.

“Not exactly.”

So, she really didn’t understand.

“Kaley, come, sit down, there is something I need to tell you. We really have to get this straightened out.”

“You look really serious.” She wrinkled her brows with concern.

They both pulled chairs away from the table.

“I think I need to sit for this too.”

“What is it, Jerin?”

God, she was looking at him with such trust and innocence. How was she going to take this? Only one way to find out, he reached across the table and took her hands into his.

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