A Tale from the World of Harthis
A Ranger and a Paladin find love on the battlefield. This is the first in the Bowstring and Steel universe, set as a counterpoint to my sci-fi Solar Wind series. These are chapters 1 and 2 of an ongoing fantasy series.
An unassuming man develops an ability to read people's thoughts after a carjacking goes bad. As the title suggests, this ordinary man finds his new talent useful or needed only part of the time as other things change his life.
A Dysfunctional Magic Kingdom Story When a former Marine's life spirals out of control, even little steps, like quitting smoking, sound like a good idea. This was just the first step to a complete rampage through the Magic Kingdom, smiting the wicked on behalf of a very pissed off Fairy Godmother. Lots of gun porn, bad language, bad attitudes, and some extremely nasty non-consentual fun with a very naughty treasonous Princess. Lots of Codes.
Fourteen-year-old Ayo flees forced marriage and joins Dahomey's legendary Agojie warriors. The initiation wall takes her breasts. Training takes her innocence. War takes her humanity.
She rises through the ranks through brilliance and brutality. Falls in love with a fellow warrior. Learns that in this system, caring means losing.
And discovers the strongest prison is the one we build ourselves.
It had been a few months since Talia had stopped letting Peter give her any dares. She could not seem to get him to recreate the feelings she had with Chuck helping her along. Maybe it just wasn't possible. Or maybe she just needed to try again. To say that things were never going to be the same would be the understatement of the year.
Sandra is a successful manager, more used to giving orders than taking them. After a particularly stressful day, she surrenders control of a night out to her boyfriend, Rob. She finds that she likes it. And when he takes charge of more than just the meal, she finds that she likes that too, even though it leads to some places she didn't even know she wanted to go.
