The chapters are direct continuations and are not really meant to be read as stand alone stories like some on here. I broke the story up to help my editor, without whom this would never have been published, but is really just one long story. One more chapter to go. Thanks for the positive feedback and the negative from people who oddly read stories about sub...
Warning: For some of you that have been following Daniel and Jill's journey this chapter is going to blow your mind. It will certainly challenge certain societal views of what love and romance truly are. Please keep an open mind and heart for the rest of this amazing journey into true love, soul mates, and redemption. But hold onto your seats, folks, because...
***Author's note: I want to apologize to all of the people who emailed me and told me that they were fans of the story, as well as the ones who didn't email me. I know that the wait was long for this next chapter. I recently got hurt doing something stupid involving a football and a bunch of 20 year olds. My wife keeps telling me that I should act my age....
The lazy late summer days of October had finally given way to crisp mornings and cool nights. The back of summer was broken and gone were the sweltering days and sultry nights. Laura tried to take her mind off the one element at the center of her young life, her lust for Ray Jackson, by running early in the morning and plunging herself into her work. Ray wa...
After a second or two of eerie silence, all hell broke loose. Jason had turned his gun to the left and continued to fire. Steve suddenly brought two guns into play, exchanging shots with several men standing directly in front of him. Charlie was methodically firing at the men stationed to his right. Ted finally tried to pull his handgun from his waistband,...
This chapter turned out longer and different than originally planned. But I had to follow where the characters wanted to go. I debated splitting it in two, but it just felt more complete as one whole chapter. Thank you for your votes, comments and emails. Several came at the perfect time and I wanted you to know I appreciated you taking the time to write. Th...
Author's note: You may want to check back up to the previous chapter. Sean has been up a while when this chapter begins. Chapter 6 Sheila: I woke with a start—Sean was not there. How quickly we adjust to new situations. Sleeping with Sean was one of my favorite things, though building sand castles had to rank high on the list. From a technical difficulty...
So I got the inspiration for this one as i watched the news and saw so many troops coming home for Christmas. This is sort of a departure from my usual stories, but even i have a semi softer side. As normal i hope you find some enjoyment of this one and comment if you like it. I also want to say thanks to my new friend accents and tattoos for her help in edi...
Kirsty sat at the table; Anna was nursing contentedly in her arms while Elsa rolled about the floor. The girls were trying to crawl but had not quite gotten the hang of it yet. She was not sure that they were ready for that, any of them. The past few months had been filled with struggles, as life always was. They had gone through five fishermen, none of wh...
I stumbled to a chair at the kitchen table. "What? What are you saying? Where are you? Who is with you?!" "I'm with Mama," was all she said. The next voice I heard was Janette's. She tried to tell me what had happened, but I could just barely understand the words behind the ringing in my ears and her sobs. She said that Jerry was driving into town and a s...
