The secretary led me into the office and shut the door behind me. I looked around, my interviewer hadn't arrived yet. I felt anxious and unprepared. If I had known they weren't going to be here on time, I would have had more time to get ready this morning. Instead of ironing my nice black shirt, I had stuffed myself into this way too small blouse. I could ha...
Yasmin Sharif knew that Stephanie Claude was trouble the moment she walked into the Little Mogadishu Restaurant on that particular Tuesday evening, sauntering in with a bright smile and confident stride, like she owned the place. The young Haitian Canadian woman had that unique swagger common to those gals from the City of Montreal, Quebec. A style, confiden...
CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE (March 2004) In Heather's opinion Albany was a beautiful city packed with all sorts of awesome, spectacular sights. Yet the breath-taking views were nothing compared to the current one. None of the world's marvels and wonders compared to the sight she was feasting her eyes on. No, not only her eyes; she was feasting in other ways, too....
I've gotten in the habit of stopping at one gas station during my commute to work. I live in Pennsylvania and work in New Jersey. The gas in Jersey is always a little cheaper, so I buy gas there. The attendants have come to recognize me now. Probably because I stop there around the same time every day, I always give them tips...and because I drive a Mercedes...

One of the primary hubs for the shipment of both freight and personnel between the planet and all of the colonies spread across the solar system, it was a mass of residential blocks, vast cargo bays, and docking ports. A mission was scheduled to depart from here today to rush replacement parts, food st...
This is my first romance story, at least the first I purposely planned to be romantic. It has a slow build up, so if you were expecting for a quick romp in the hay please go somewhere else (maybe next time I will write one of those). This story ended up being longer that I expected it to be, it was so hard to write that I don't want to touch another one of t...
I could tell just from the way she looked in my direction that this was more than just a friendly conversation, Sarah and I were colleagues and sat in my office that day, I knew what was on her mind. The night before had been the big bosses leaving do, everyone knew me and Sarah were now going to be in competition for the job, so I had to play my cards clos...
Annabel rattled around in their apartment some days. It was such an opulent home - magnificent arts and the finest of furnishings, but it felt lifeless and lonely to Annabel, and she felt like a kept woman - a plaything to be used at her husband's whim. Even then, the sex wasn't great - routine and predictable. Sure, he said the right things; she was beauti...
Miranda had just finished the worst week of her advertising career. Having always been the company's "go to girl," this week's failure was particularly difficult. She had been working on a major account proposal and had put together three possible campaigns…sure to please even this client – the most difficult one. The presentation day had finally arrived an...
