Tomorrow's Promise

Life’s pretty much thrown everything it can at David: His wife, Karin left him after their child died. Watching his best friend marry his ex-wife sums up the ruins of his life. Attending the wedding could sink him further.

Being a bridesmaid at her best friend Michael’s wedding, wasn’t on Genie’s bucket list. No, she’d rather be his bride. Watching the man she’s lusted after, for more years than she’d like to admit, marry another woman, was not the highlight of her life. But meeting the brides ex-husband might be.

​Caution: There are some themes in this story that people could find offensive.

Tia's Redemption

When you need a job done, you need a woman.

Tia—codename Cat—knows all about loss. Orphaned at a young age, she’s made it through a series of foster homes, with one single aim in sight. Joining the Australian army. Now an accomplished sniper with the Alathea Rangers—an all-woman team, begun in Greece and now based in America—covert operations team, she’s found where she belongs. Or has she?

When she’s sent to retrieve the child of an Australian diplomat, she drops into Zabuti—an unstable African country — with no illusions about her importance in the greater scheme of things.

When Cal sees Cat’s landing, he’s unsure about the man. His misgivings are even more grave when he realises Cat’s female. Can this slight woman do the job? He’s supposed to be her in-country guide, but though he packs a gun and is a CIA operative, he can’t keep them safe.

The stakes are raised on the wild race across Zabuti, and nothing can prepare him for what’s to come, including the passion that rises between them.

In the end, nothing is certain, including their survival.

Silken Knights

After a long dry spell, how does a single person find sexual satisfaction?

Davina’s not looking for forever, just for tonight, but finding the perfect squeeze without using a professional is a turn off. After all, no woman in her position could afford the risk to her image. The lonely-hearts listings in the paper trigger an idea—sign up to yoga and find a likeminded and available male to meet her needs.

Micah’s dry spell doesn’t just affect his sex-life, but the passion in his paintings. He’s tired of the friends with benefits agreement he has with the agent and wants more—but without strings. A chance opportunity to enrol at Knights Meditation Haven and participate in yoga classes could be the answer to his problem.

Davina captures his attention, and she can’t help the pull toward Micah either. By agreement they both decide to explore sensuality together along with the practice of Tantra. Davina’s history through, becomes a major stumbling block to the growth of any emotional attachment.

Can they discover a sensual world, one that surprises with the depth of emotion attachment and love? Only time will tell.
