"Jessica... so good to see you again." Harry took her hand and helped her out of the car, leaning down to press a warm kiss to her cheek. He inhaled her sweet fragrance, lilies of the valley. His wife had planted them all around the foundation of their house when they married. Elise was gone but the flowers continued to bloom every year, just when it was tim...
I hate shopping for insurance. That's how I felt that warm June day. I had been shopping around for a new insurance company for a few weeks, and felt I was going crazy with terms like: Non-Guaranteed Life, Universal Life, Whole Life and Ordinary Life making my head swim. It was 4 P.M., and I was on my way to my last appointment for the day, a small indepen...
David emerged from the ocean, carrying a surfboard, wearing a wet suit that clung to his aging, but athletic body. He set his surfboard down by his beach blanket, wiped the water off his hair and face with a towel, and sat down, gulping down a bottle of water from the cooler he brought with him. He stared at the throngs of people frolicking all around him on...
He expertly maneuvered the rented convertible in and out of the early morning traffic, his gray hair blowing, a Bob Seger CD blaring, as they sped south on Highway 1 from Miami, top down, toward the Keys. She blushed slightly as he turned his attention from the road to glance her way and caught her staring at his handsome profile. A grin crossed his face a...
I was 25, and I had developed my first ever schoolgirl crush. I was a first year law student and he was my professor. He had attracted my attention slowly – there was nothing particularly extraordinary about him, but I'd always been the type to be more attracted to someone once I had a sense of his personality. Professor Smith was in his early fifties, wit...

We have much in common and are g...
It was late afternoon when I drove past the public school in Pittsburgh, PA where I spent my early years. For nostalgia's sake, I stopped to see if any of my old teachers were still there. I found the doors open, so I walked inside through the corridors I recalled so well. I walked the old, familiar hallways of the first and second floor, but the building s...
©2005 All Rights Reserved Chapter 2 I went back to the office, let Carla know where I'd be, and went to my truck. Even though sport utilities are somewhat of a combination, I still consider them more of a truck than a car. I drove down to the waterfront with a few minutes to spare. A good private dick tries to get to get to locations early to scope things...
Hello fans! Welcome to my next book, Jennifer's Summer Adventures! This novella has 10 Chapters, and deals with a myriad of situations through her summer before college. The people of my stories live only in my (and yours I hope)imagination. That being the case, please bear in mind that other "rules" of life can also be bent. There are a couple in these stor...
This is an additional chapter I wrote as part of a re-write for my novel "Dressed To Kill" that can be read here but it can stand pretty much as a short piece by itself and so I hope you enjoy it! Also I know I've left the ending for "Dressed To Kill "hanging for sometime, but I promise, like Noella, it is coming....so to speak! Gray * Damien was feelin...
