All I Want for Christmas is You

Genre: Erotic Contemporary Two years after Robin’s fiancé dies in a car crash, she has sorted her priorities and decided to follow through with one of their plans. A baby. Of course, it would be best if that baby shared some of Zach’s genes. Enter David, Zach’s older brother. He’s her best friend, her confidant, the one person who won’t dismiss her plans as insane…she hopes. And maybe sex with him will get David out of her fantasies, fantasies where he takes Zach’s place. Or maybe they won’t. If Robin hadn’t been Zach’s when David met her, he would have stopped at nothing to make her his own. If she doesn’t hate him for giving her what she’s asking for, they might both get the Christmas gift they want most. David is nothing like Zach. He’s more physical, more adventurous in the bedroom, and not patient enough to take the long, slow approach to what he wants. Which is precisely what Robin loves about him. Publisher's Note: This book contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable: Anal play/intercourse.

Resurrection Planet

In the novel, "RESURRECTION PLANET," Former Marine--now a mercenary troubleshooter-- Ronald Crisp has to subdue savage hordes of "deadheads" and outwit his former boss--maniacal Colonel Spangler. This is a blend of military science fiction, zombie horror, and a philosophical look at end-times theology...the thinking man's "zombie book." ExcerptIt is a small piece of hell. Fractured bones, bones with telltale marks of having been gnawed and chewed. Blood spatters. Skulls, some gleaming and white, others with dried pieces of flesh still attached. No eyes; these would have been considered a delicacy, I suppose. Tattered pieces of clothing that could not be salvaged. A boot missing its sole, the leather cracked and warped, but its shoelaces notably absent. Blood stains on the rock seats ringing the pit. Blood trails to the nearby lean-to's where the copulation and celebration would have taken place after the rejuvenating meal. Welcome to blue camp. Welcome to the "civilized" tribe.
