US troops fire into the crowd killing him, and Jake Johnsrud, a virtual stranger, risks his life to save hers. They are among the survivors who are sentenced to slavery on the Moon for their ―crimes‖— Jake as a miner; Annie as a sex slave.

Along with their fellow inmates, they fight to survive on the lunar "rock" that is their prison.

In a tough love move, her husband, Scott takes her to the Moon— and dumps her. Katie‘s stuck on that God-forsaken ―rock,‖ and thinks she‘s space sick. But she‘s wrong; she‘s pregnant. Now the surgery‘s too dangerous and she has to go off her meds until the baby‘s born. Scott‘s elated that he‘s going to be a father and assumes Katie will take him back. He has no clue how badly he‘s hurt her, how thoroughly he‘s broken her trust—or that he may not get her back at all.

Editor’s Note:
I‘ve noticed that I don‘t quite have enough room for bio‘s, books, and links. Between websites, blogs, Facebook, Twitter and the numerous buy links people have now with Amazon, BN, etc., there just isn‘t enough room on one page . So, from now on, I‘m adding a page for ALL authors who spill over—not just me.

He stormed away then back. ―Why can‘t you stay here and continue what you‘ve been doing? You seemed happy enough.‖ Jessie stared back at him as if they were strangers. ―Dancing occasionally and doing odd jobs to pay the bills? I can‘t do it anymore,‖ she said, shaking her head, swallowing hard. ―I want… I need to dance. This is my passion in life.

Firedance Smoke jumper Lory Foster fought the summer infernos that threatened the Northwest forests. Mike Steen battled those blazes from his specially equipped chopper. When fires raged, they were a team. The rest of the time they were loners, isolated by the demands of their jobs, the uncertainty of their lives and the lurking threat of sudden death. To Mike, Lory was strong and vital. He didn't believe she'd ever need him. To Lory, Mike was an unfettered spirit soaring over the human passions of love and desire. But their breed were gamblers and they gambled everything on one glorious and tumultuous weekend on the drifting currents of Idaho's Snake River. Jan.

The Power Within All Tina Morton remembered of her waterskiing accident were the muscular arms that buoyed her, the huge hand she clung to. World class power lifter Joe Rustin was the rescuer--her reason to recover. Standing by her when others fled, Joe became Tina's coach, her inspiration, her constant companion--but not her lover. Though she longed for more than a partner in pumping iron, Joe held himself back, fiercely cautious of his own tremendous strength. He'd given her courage and confidence; dare she unleash his deepest passions, the power suppressed within him? Jan.

Jane Austen Blood Persuasion It is 1810, and the Damned are out of favor—banished from polite society. Jane Austen‘s old undead friends have become new neighbors, raising hell in her tranquil village just in time to interrupt Jane‘s work on what will be her masterpiece. Suddenly Jane‘s niece is flirting dangerously with vampires, and a formerly respectable spinster friend has discovered the forbidden joys of intimate congress with the Damned (and is borrowing Jane‘s precious silk stockings for her assignations). Writing is simply impossible now, with murderous creatures prowling the village‘s once-peaceful lanes. And with the return of her vampire characteristics, a civil war looming between factions of the Damned, and a former lover who intends to spend eternity blaming her for his broken heart, Jane is facing a very busy year indeed.

Rock Crazy Katie McGowan is bi-polar, and she‘s run the gamut of medications, but nothing works anymore. Everyone says her she should have a microchip implanted in her brain that can regulate her mood swings. But Katie doesn‘t want to be a robot.
