Anastasia the little fox

Monica Fiorentino

Sinossi

Once upon a time, there was a beautiful fox with auburn fur and eyes of a shifting dark violet hue, named Anastasia. Orphaned at birth, she lost her pack to Human Beings, engaged in one of their bloody wars that had turned the Forest, once peaceful and serene, into a battlefield, razed to the ground in the urgency of battle. The helpless creature, too fragile to escape unscathed, had lost everything.
Discovered on the verge of death by a soldier on patrol, malnourished and frightened, the fox was taken under his protection and brought safely to the nearby Barracks, where he named her Anastasia.

How to Kiss a Movie Star - A...

Jenny Proctor

He's Hollywood's biggest star. She wouldn't know him from the pizza delivery guy. 
 
 
 
I'm a wildlife biologist in a tiny mountain town, not some kind of law-breaking celebrity stalker. At least not on purpose. 
 
 
 
It was an accident when I wandered onto the property of one of Hollywood's hottest movie stars. Five minutes ago, I'd never even heard of Flint Hawthorne. I definitely didn't know he lives in Silver Creek. 
 
 
 
When I'm detained for trespassing, the last thing I expect is to trade my handcuffs for a designer gown. All I wanted was permission to conduct my research on a remote corner of his estate. 
 
 
 
Now I'm walking the red carpet of a Hollywood movie premiere as Flint's (very fake) girlfriend. 
 
 
 
At least, the relationship is supposed to be fake. But the way he slips his arm around me, his breath tickling my ear, the chemistry feels like something real. 
 
 
 
The trouble is, I'm not really built to handle his fast-paced celebrity life. Most days, I prefer the company of squirrels to people. I should be glad we're only pretending. I'm just not sure my heart got the memo.

Jim Bridger - The King of the...

John J. Law

Jim Bridger, also, known as the 'King of the Mountain Men' lay on his stomach on a wooden table, as the doctor cut up the skin on the top area of his back. His back was stained with his own blood, but the good doctor had cleaned the blood as it gushed out, keeping bleeding to a minimum. Bridger himself was enduring the procedure in a very stoic and affable manner.  
He had been lying on his back for almost an hour now but was not complaining in any way.  
The doctor had cut and scraped off his skin to get at the metal arrowhead that was lodged deep in his back, but the King of the Mountain Men did not complain or moan from the pain. Instead, he continued to enthrall young Jacob Hughes who sat at his side with his tales of high adventure on the mountains.
