Arden Soulbearer has fought a god, defeated a necromancer, and driven enemy invaders out of her homeland. Now, the only reward she desires is to marry the man who’s been by her side through it all--her knight protector, Dev. But with her happy ending almost in reach, an ancient crime returns to haunt them... and the punishment is Dev’s death.
A century ago, a Soulbearer stole a sacred relic from the Ornathians, and now their king demands a sacrifice of Dev's blood to lift the blight cursing his people. Arden’s only hope to free Dev from the king's prison is to find the relic. But first, she must outwit the one person who knows where the relic is—-Loku, the God of Chaos whose soul resides within her. Views: 31

The fiction and prose selections included in Charleswood Road contrast stark reality with fantasy, mortality with transcendence and explore both the mundane and pivotal choices people make in shaping their world.
Each selection, neither predictable nor conventional, challenges one’s assumptions of what is real and what is possible and inspires one to question the role of fate and fortune in one’s own life.
From first kisses to last breaths and everything in between, sentiment is stripped away to reveal both the allure and acrimony of humanity. Rich and varied, bleak and hopeful, this remarkable collection of short stories and poetry pulls focus on our limitations and in spite of these limitations, our willingness to see each day to the end.
The title offering is a wholly original and candid coming of age piece loosely based around real events in the city of Winnipeg. Views: 31

Kyra
Thornton is in serious trouble. Her former boss has disappeared after stealing
every dime from the company's trust account and framing her for the theft, so when
the FBI offers her a way to prove her innocence and escape prosecution, she
hesitantly agrees. All she has to do is go undercover, take a job working for
billionaire technology entrepreneur Jake Harmon, and find evidence to prove the
FBI’s claims that he masterminded the crime.
There's
just one catch: Jake is a dom, and he’s looking for someone who can be both a
financial officer for his company and the perfect sub for him. Impressed by her
intelligence and her beauty, Jake is more than happy to take Kyra on as both
his employee and his submissive. Kyra has never been a sub—or wished to be one—but
under the circumstances she has little choice, and she soon finds herself stripped
bare and on her knees awaiting Jake’s every command.
To
Kyra’s shock, Jake’s skillful mastery of her body leaves her not only blushing
with shame and aroused far beyond anything she's ever experienced before, it
also leaves her yearning for more. It isn't long before she feels a growing
need to submit both her body and her heart to the dark, mysterious billionaire.
But when the time comes to fulfil the bargain that kept her out of prison, can
she trust Jake to protect her, or will she cast aside her newfound love to save
herself?
