Grieving is a solitary business best carried on at night and I have certainly earned the right to grieve. My fifth husband passed away a year ago and I was still dealing with it. You'd think after being widowed five times I'd get used to it or be immune or som...
The culmination of Alyssa's journey. Part Six: The Price of Passion Gary was dead, and I had met the man who had killed him. Trying to return to a normal life after that, I felt, was nearly impossible. I withdrew from the semester, and even though it was too late to get any tuition back, I didn't care.

That second version will be posted in a week or so. Jb7 Paid to Se...

Chapter 2. "First" "When I was younger, I liked these to be slightly toasted, but now that I'm older, I like 'em... charred." "You obviously have a thing for flaming balls." Bella's laughter, sweet and melodious as it was to Jason's appreciative ears, filled the late morning air all around them. A rare, precious gem, his bride was brimming with spirit - u...
A massive thanks to Nora Fares for being my very first editor ever (after all these years I finally bit the bullet team) and to the great Randi Black for another inspired event. Here it is then. It was a very dull overcast day in the History Department of the large West Country University, and post-graduate student Holly Cogdale picked up her one-hundred-a...
