One sip… One taste of eternity…
..
Dimitri Alexios lives alone in his San Francisco mansion, if one could call loathing what he is and hating his maker living. Until he beholds the mortal woman who appears on his doorstep. Her gentleness brings light to his darkness, and her innocence calls to him. Yet she knows nothing of his world, or the dangerous predator that constantly rages within him.
..
Museum curator Cassie Stephens, sent to catalog antiques at the Alexios estate, is surprised to discover Dimitri is anything but the old man she expected. He’s handsome and darkly mysterious, not the sort who’s usually attracted to her girl-next-door looks. Yet she’s ensnared by his irresistible charm—which makes it all the more crushing when he suddenly pushes her away.
..
Dimitri knows he’s doing the right thing, but it’s too late. Cassie’s passion has touched a heart he thought no longer capable of love. Now he must turn his strength to a deadly task: a battle to save the woman he loves from the maker who would love nothing more than to rip her away from him…
..
Warning: This book contains vampire battles and mindless minions that do their bidding. Snakes, but they’re not on a plane. AND a melt in your mouth, yummy vampire that will bite.

One workaholic. One gigolo. One week in Sin City. You do the math…
Anna Jackson’s ex-boyfriend may have stolen her promotion, but she’s not mad. Not anymore. She’s getting even—by beating him at his own game. So what if she has to give up all her free time and any semblance of a personal life? With a partnership in a law firm as prestigious as Beckam, Beckam and Leland on the line, she’s willing to pay the price.
Las Vegas escort Devon McGuire is charming, sexy, and damn good at pleasing women. He’d better be, it’s what he gets paid for. Always up for a challenge, he’s looking forward to his newest job. Who wouldn’t enjoy a week as the companion of a smart, sultry, high-powered attorney—no strings attached?
Devon’s used to pushing boundaries, but there’s
something about Anna that makes him want to turn up the steam. And when she learns to let go and unexpectedly opens to him, he finds himself falling
right in.
Whoa, hold it. Love was never part of the plan…
Warning: This book contains a sizzling, drop-dead gorgeous, sex-on-a-stick gigolo who wants to make women’s fantasies come true, and a woman who won’t cooperate and let him do his job.

Falling in love with your kidnapper is never supposed to happen, but when he isn’t exactly human it brings up another set of problems all together…
..
Rachel fights with everything she has against a man, Scott, who has broken into her apartment. On the run, Rachel learns Scott isn’t running from the law, he’s running from a secret branch of military that the government doesn’t know exists. Scott’s mysterious, deadly, and handsome as sin. Her mind tells her to be terrified, but her body and heart are making other demands.
..
Now Rachel finds herself trying to help her kidnapper, along with two other of Scott’s colleagues that have gone AWOL. They must locate and save the doctor and a congressman who can bring down this illegal operation. It’s a ace against the clock to blow the top off one of the biggest secrets the world has ever known.

..
Sophie's wanted Jacob just as long and has a holiday wish too. She's only too eager to let him call the shots...on her knees, on her back, or any way he'll have her in the boardroom...and out. But there's another set of eyes watching them, someone who doesn't want them to be together.
..
Sophie will have to fight for her life to make sure she's the one that's tied and wrapped under the tree for Jacob to open and claim come Christmas morning.

When Ayan touched Heather, there was no denying the desire she felt for him … for she glowed with pleasure … literally.
..
Ayan had given up on finding his true mate until he entered the human world in search of the key and found Heather—the keeper of the key. To have her, though, he must first save her. For Garinick will stop at nothing to obtain the key—the key that will unlock the doors to the many realms, for he means to take them one by one until he rules all.

The Gateway
by Alec Derwent Hope
Now the heart sings with all its thousand voices
To hear this city of cells, my body, sing.
The tree through the stiff clay at long last forces
Its thin strong roots and taps the secret spring.
And the sweet waters without intermission
Climb to the tips of its green tenement;
The breasts have borne the grace of their possession,
The lips have felt the pressure of content.
Here I come home: in this expected country
They know my name and speak it with delight.
I am the dream and you my gates of entry,
The means by which I waken into light
I'd like to invite you and all your friends to check out (and hopefully subscribe to) my blog concerning the launch of my new novel, Child Finder. My book has already received some great reviews before its official release on June 9th. It is a mystery/suspense thriller -- and is only the first in a trilogy I am contracted to write.
Click here to access my blog where I will post information about the book's availability as well as signing events. Also, be sure to check out my novel's website (www.childfinder.us) for more detailed information about the story, my background, and publication schedules.
Thank you for the friendship. As you can see, I am a writer promoting my work on myspace. I have a fiction blog where I post short stories as a way of staying in touch with fans and to give potential new readers a chance to gauge my work. It would be very cool if you'd check it out.
