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:

Rose entered the room in her usual excited flourish. It was time to welcome James home, her favorite part of the day. She smiled. “Welcome home, Cousin James,” she said as she kissed his cheek and hugged him. Her blonde hair was done up in a fashionable coiffure. Her pink dress was just the right shade to highlight her fair complexion. Her blue eyes sparkled with enjoyment.

“Rose, you know we are barely related,” he said as he set her aside.

“Yes, I know,” she said. But I want you to remember it. I want you to look at me as a woman, not as a child. Rose’s eyes settled on Leslie. “I see we have company.” She managed a polite smile. Another woman! She wanted to scream.

“Yes, dear. This is Leslie. She will be staying with us for a while.”

“How very nice to meet you, Leslie. I’m sure you and I will become fast friends.” Just when I have him all to myself, he finds another woman. Rose seethed, but she smiled sweetly.

TEASER / EXCERPT:

Ever been to Egypt?” he asked.

“Actually, I have.”

“The Pyramids?”

“What is Egypt without the Pyramids?” She was bending toward him.

“And sand.” He swallowed. He was having trouble holding on to his train of thought.

“Lots of sand,” she said. “And camels, too.” She was just inches from his face.

“Dirty, smelly animals,” he said. “And they spit.”

“Speaking of spit,” she said, moving closer, her face now just inches from his. “Why don’t you and I share some?” she whispered.

He couldn’t stand it anymore. He had a hard-on that wouldn’t quit. Her perfume was intoxicating, and her soft, brown eyes were filled with desire.

He placed his left hand at the back of her neck. He cupped her cheek in his right. He stood up. The chair made a scratching sound across the floor. He steadied her as he lowered his mouth to hers.

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

He should be insulted at her innuendo that he was inept at his job, but he wasn’t. She was a feisty little thing. Not so little he corrected himself. He longed to hold her to find out how well she fit next to his body. The women of Earth made him uneasy. When he touched them, he had to be mindful of their fragility. He had no doubt that Kaley was strong, her ability to wield that cast iron frying pan proved that. The thought of touching her, without fear of breaking her as he caressed her and became lost in passion, was intoxicating. He almost stepped forward to act on the desire.

He cleared his throat. “I am qualified,” he managed to say while in his mind’s eye he loosened her hair from its bonds.

She blushed as if the heat of his thoughts had touched her.

“In that case I will take my leave. Miss Sherwood, I trust you have our number? Don’t be afraid to use it should the need arise.”

The police officer gave Jerin a glance filled with warning and then made his way out of the door closing it behind him.

Teaser:

Korina ran into her mother’s arms. Tears flowed down her cheeks.

“What’s the matter, Kori?” her mother asked.

“Nothing, Mom. I’m just happy to see you. I love you. I’ve missed you.”

She squeezed her mother in a loving hug, burying her face in her mother’s neck.

“Last night you were threatening to run away. You didn’t seem to be concerned about missing me then.”

“I’m sorry about that. I was acting childish. I’m thir—” She cleared her throat. “Twenty-five years old and an adult. I have to take my responsibilities seriously, even if it’s not what I want.”

“Now it’s my turn to be sorry. I have had a look at this man who is to be your husband. I’m afraid the rumors are true. He’s not very good-looking. We can only hope the rest of it is lies. No one can be as heartless as they say he is.”

“It will be all right, Mother.”

“Well, on the bright side…there is a clause in the betrothal agreement.”

“A clause?”

Her mother nodded.

“As long as no children are conceived, either party may end the marriage on the anniversary of the union.” A tear slipped down her cheek. “I’m sorry, baby.”

“I can have my freedom after one year?” She almost bubbled over in her happiness. She’d just done five long years in lonely exile. One year of marriage would be a piece of cake.

“It’s going to be a busy day. You need to get started. Have something to eat. After that, I’ll meet you in your room.”

TEASER EXCERPT

Billy slumped back in his seat at the dinner table. He crossed his arms over his chest and kicked his feet out. “I hate broccoli,” he complained. His frown and closely knit eyebrows punctuated the words.

Nadine smiled at her petulant grandson. “Imagine you are a giant and they are trees.” She chuckled.

Billy thought about that for a moment. “Trees don’t taste good either.” His bottom lip pushed outward.

“They taste good to giants,” Shamika said.

“Really?” Billy leaned forward. “Have you seen a giant?”

“Not one big enough to eat a tree. You would be the first giant I’ve ever seen do that.”

Billy leaned forward and picked up a broccoli spear between his fingers.

Shamika popped her eyes open in pretended shock and anticipation. She framed her lips in an O. Maintaining the shocked expression, she said, “Wow.”

Billy put the broccoli head into his mouth. He watched as Shamika’s eyes opened even wider. In an exaggerated movement he bit down and ripped the bushy head of the broccoli off in his mouth.

“Oh, my!” Shamika exclaimed, clutching her hands in front of her chest.

Billy chewed the greenery. His face expressed his dislike, but he swallowed the vegetable anyway.

“Good boy,” Nadine said.

“Good giant,” Shamika added and winked. Billy laughed and took another bite. Shamika smiled.

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.

Set up for the teaser: Rowena finds herself in a special “club.” She has no idea how she got there or what kind of place it is.

 “Stephen, please don’t do this,” she pleaded as he put the blindfold over her eyes. “Stephen!” she shouted in a panic.

“It will be okay, baby. Just don’t try to take it off. You will make it really hard on yourself if you do. They want you blindfolded for their own reasons. Don’t give them an excuse to punish you.”

“More spanking?” she asked, horrified.

“Spanking, or worse. They may prefer the crop or the whip. We all know how to use them in a way that won’t break the skin. Just to let you know, it stings like hell. It makes my spanking feel like a caress.” He kissed her cheek. “I will try to get myself scheduled for later. Maybe I can do a trade. Remember your safe word.” He kissed her again and touched her hair. “Try to relax.”

She heard the door open and close. “Stephen!” she screamed. “Please don’t leave me.”

She’d gone quickly. At least he hoped she hadn’t suffered. He’d come home for lunch one day and found her, dead on the kitchen floor.

Life without his Angelina was not worth living.
