Gold!

Fyn Alexander

Synopsis

The year is 3550.
Fifteen hundred years ago, Earth became a very dark place to live. A cabal of evil men was attempting to make the population into Serfs ruled over by the cabal. 
Five families decided to leave Earth and find a distant planet to begin again. A group of pioneers traveled to Pleione in the Pleiades star cluster, but the original intention of a utopia soon disintegrated into a world not much better than Earth. The basis of the new system is run like the ancient Roman Republic with a strict caste system. Fifteen hundred years later, the pioneering five families rule the planet with an iron grip. 
This is the world in which Jericho Goldsmith, a man from one of the five elite families, and Tenzin Fenn, a Serf sold into slavery by his family, meet and fall in love. But can the two men forge a loving relationship and remain together when they come from such disparate backgrounds and everyone is against them?

Tricks with Cats and Dogs

Mere Rain

Halloween is supposed to be a night for safe scares and harmless tricks, not terror ... or romance.


College student Colin agrees to take his little cousin trick-or-treating, anticipating nothing worse than having to shepherd a bunch of sugar-crazed third-graders and a poorly-trained puppy. When the kids run ahead to peek into the local supposedly-haunted house, it seems like a harmless bit of mischief until the puppy crawls through a basement window and is lost. Colin promises to get her back. The place may be dark and creepy, but it can't really be haunted. When the house turns out to be occupied by an attractive man who is willing to let him in, it seems like a lucky break ... at first.


Secrets. Sometimes Cat feels like he has nothing but secrets. No family, no freedom, not even a real name. Colin seems nice, but Cat doesn't owe him anything, not when the risk of punishment for helping a stranger is so high. But he's looking for a puppy, and Cat has a soft spot for dogs. And possibly also a soft spot for kind boys with soft lips. But the apparently simple task of finding a missing pet won't be as easy as it sounds, because the house isn't what it seems ... and neither is Cat.


Could Colin possibly still want Cat if he learns the truth? They won't find out unless they manage to escape the darkness of the house.

The youngest child of a poor peasant family, Delia must marry or find a position as a servant in the nearby town to help her aging parents. She is loathe to relinquish her freedom, and has refused many suitors, when the duke of the land expresses interest in her. Maltric has lost four previous wives in mysterious circumstances. No one knows what happened at the castle, and many fear black magic is loose in the land. Delia is wary of Maltric's attentions, but cannot refuse to meet him when he sends a message announcing his arrival.
At night Delia dreams of her perfect lover, a beautiful green-eyed woman named Atishi who knows everything about her and offers her sensual pleasure more exquisite than anything she has experienced in her waking life. She begs to stay with her dream-lover. When Atisha tells Delia they can be reunited in flesh if she finds the blue door in the duke's castle, Delia agrees to the courtship with the duke.
Married and the mistress of an enormous castle, Delia searches for the blue door and finally locates it in an unused hallway tucked away on the top floor. Inside, she finds Atishi waiting for her under a gigantic oak tree in the land of Elysa. Delia must renounce her family and her world.
When the duke finds out, he accuses Delia of witchcraft and forbids her to use the door again. Time is running out before the passageway to Elysa closes.

Double Edge

Adam Carpenter

Summer is winding down. For Jimmy McSwain, it's been a quiet couple of months, leaving this apprentice private investigator with little to do. Be careful what you wish for.
Jimmy is asked by his boss to accompany his wife Beatrice to a fancy art gallery opening down in Manhattan's Soho district. The drama begins when the artist who goes by the name Rico pulls a disappearing act on the night of his big debut, leaving the owners of the Barrister Gallery stunned, not to mention the hoity-toity snobs expecting to meet the man behind the "Beauty at Death" show. 
The owners claim Rico has been kidnapped. Jimmy thinks their reaction is a bit extreme. Nevertheless, he agrees to take the case, even as he begins to suspect he hasn't been told the whole story. Especially when the Barrister owners say no cops. 
With a growing sense of menace, Jimmy finds himself doubting his ability to solve the puzzling case. How does he find the truth when all he's heard is lies? He fears someone could end up hurt -- or worse, dead -- on his watch.
