CROSSROADS - THE CLONES The Call Chapter 1 I got the call at 7 am. Not the best time to call me. I'm a night owl. Then again I have never meet a psychic that was a morning person. Me, I just can't seem to get to sleep before 2 am, so as you can imagine when the phone rang I was a little grumpy. The call wakes me up. Too bad, I was having a real adventure dream. The call is from this guy at some institute. They needed me to come in and try to read the mind of one of their dyin

'LOVE FLOATS' - EXCERPT I stretched to lift the first of the four kayaks we’d take out on the Bay this evening. It was the inaugural moonlight float for my company, Love’s Kayaking Floats, and Tours. My clients and fellow paddle enthusiasts were scheduled to be on-site within the next half hour. The full moon reflected off the mirrored surface of the bay. Despite the fog moving in, it promised to be a perfect night for a float. I pulled four life vests from the Amish-built sh

THE SHADOWS LENGTHEN EXCERPT The light is fading fast as afternoon smudges into evening. An inky bloom of rainclouds rolls in from the northern horizon. Ivor Martin glances through the studio window and rinses his brush at the sink. He’s stayed working longer than he intended to but, at his age, he figures he does not have time to waste. He has so few hours left and, suddenly, so much work to do, so much love and longing to pour and scrape and etch into his canvases. This wil

IDEA FOR THE BOOK The Trouble with Empaths is book two of my new series. The main characters were in the first book and everyone loved them and thought they deserved their own book. Connor and Regan have known each other most of their lives, but one kiss creates an unexpected deep connection, and one giant secret proves they don't know each other as well as they thought. ***** EXCERPT Connor cringed as the noise from the party hit his senses, loud and booming in his head. He

CHAPTER 6 The next morning was sunny and magnificent. Then, a thought of Ed made everything seem less perfect. With a heavy heart, I made my way to the kitchen to start the bulldog breakfast parade. It was almost impossible not to feel hopeful while dodging a kitchen full of hungry and breakfasting bulldogs in an effort to sit down and eat your own meal. I was feeling better already. I pulled into the parking lot across from the station house while keeping an eye out for “my

TELL ME TO STOP A short story with a teaser included BLURB: Stuck in an elevator with my obsession, the last thing I want him to say is, “Tell me to stop.” His seductive kiss and expert touch warrant forgiveness for his trickery, but will his proposal to master me in submission push me too far? TEASER: It’s only Wednesday, and I’ve already had enough of this week. As a paralegal, I’m always taking work home, and tonight will be no different. This won’t be the first time I’ll

Harry Allen (picture courtesy of meditationlife90 of Pixabay) HARRY ALLEN Harry Allen is commonly what we all recognise as a ‘rough diamond’, and a ‘tough nut’ when the situation arises. Harry is, to date, my favourite character in ‘The Hurt’ trilogy. I thoroughly enjoyed creating him. Harry first makes his appearance in the second part of the trilogy – ‘The Healing’, and also features in ‘The Scars’ - the third and concluding part. A gold tooth, shaved head and an earring in

EXCERPT/CHAPTER The huge leather-clad biker looming over me has just guessed my biggest secret. There’s no denying it. A past I’ve kept hidden for so long. I’ve never shared the details about that night when Billy had been given a bottle of rum as a gift and drank the whole damn lot. Perfect opportunity. Perfect crime. Perfect murder. Except I didn’t consider myself a murderer. I was a survivor. Billy had been bad news from the moment he’d walked into my clinic in his suave s

FIGHTING FOR BRIELLE LAGUNA BEACH COPS SERIES - BOOK ONE EXCERPT The McQuaids landed at John Wayne Airport, about fifteen miles away from Laguna Beach, close to midnight. They rented a car and thirty minutes later checked into their hotel on the beach. After stripping down to their boxers, father and son wished each other good night and fell exhausted into their separate beds. Bad dreams plagued Justice, as they had every night since losing his team. He tossed and turned, and
