They had been looking for her. Well not exactly her but some descendants of her Grandmother's family. It was romantic in a way. During the First World War a man and a woman fell in love. The man was Canadian and far from home defending the boarder of a country he had barely knew existed before being sent to the front lines. The woman was Danish and had seen...
Mary recommended him. Later she told me that Valerie had recommended him to her. I knew I would recommend him to someone soon. Probably Nancy. But not now. I was still cussing at the computer that day when I sat down at Mary's table for lunch at BRG. Jeff used to take care of our computer problems, but he was away on a week-long business trip. The computer...
It was one of those days when there's nothing to do but sit by the pool and ruminate on what could have happened if she hadn't married Ted. She'd have none of the things she had, she assumed - the grand house in Greenwich, the two BMWs, the kids away in boarding schools, the help, the money, the vacations, the clothes. Yes, she worked too, marginally, helpin...
Captain Darlene Marin of the United States Marine Corps sat in one of the many on base bars, a drink in her hand. She had many things on her mind, but the young woman was trying to drown out all of her thoughts. Drowning the thoughts and the memories was next to impossible though.

"God knows. I think I heard that he married an old woman and settled down somewhere. I know he never came up again." Phineas Finn, Anthony Trollope My dearest Hettie...
I had arrived at Port Canaveral, Florida for another of my agent only trips. This time, however, we would be embarking on a 5 day cruise through the Caribbean with a few stops in Jamaica, The Bahamas, and Dominican Republic. After my last trip to Iceland, I couldn't wait to see what this trip would have in store for me. I had stopped at a local women's bou...
In the not too distant future... It had all begun innocently enough. The world financial markets were still reeling from the economic instability caused by the over-extended real estate markets.
