We seem to be falling with frightening acceleration through a shrinking world of violence and corruption, self-absorption and alienation, hatred and fear. A world that claws at the soul and withers the spirit, with a growing gulf between the elite and the downtrodden, and a wasteland of personal agony for legions of both. A world whose life-sustaining resources are threatened as surely as the dreams of its inhabitants. A world where comfort, reliability and trust are increasingly replaced by disillusionment, suspicion, and disgust. Luggalor’s Lenses is a taut, fast-paced story that carries a message for our time... illuminates the ongoing wreckage to the human psyche, the environment, and social fabric of the planet’s life... reveals how the truths inherent in every thread of creation are neglected... and offers more than a glimpse into possibilities for reversing the slide. It’s a story of insight... and ultimately... hope. Views: 32
She’s determined not to give in. He’s determined to make her beg. Project Exorcism, Book 3 As head of the Sargaidia guards, Nina Janelle is accustomed to getting what she wants out of her men—in battle and in bed. These days, she’s in a losing battle with her panther-shifter heat cycle, each round requiring more and more men to quell her burning need. Until she meets Commission Officer Jordan Vasil. Suddenly, only one man can satisfy her—too bad the cocky pilot grates on her very last nerve. Nina’s is the only face floating in his mind when Jordan lies alone at night, suffering from unrequited lust. It seems she’d rather slit his throat than bed him—until he finds her in debilitating pain from her efforts to subdue her urges. Ignoring her attempts to push him away, he gives her what she needs. His touch. His body. Nina’s not quite ready to concede defeat, but she needs Jordan’s piloting skills to find her missing brother. Alone with him in close quarters promises to be more than distracting. Losing control could cost more than her kick-ass reputation. It could cost their lives. Warning: Contains a hotheaded female who doesn’t like having to rely on any one let alone a man. And an equally stubborn alpha shifter male who’s is more than willing to go toe to toe with her before rocking her world. Views: 32
