My name is Hemy Knox and I’m a f*cking heartbreaker . . . I’ve hurt the one person that means the most to me in life; the only woman I have ever f*cking loved. I let the drugs, alcohol and wild life take over; consume me. I got her where I wanted her and ripped her fucking heart out. Since then, I’ve spent countless nights having dirty, meaningless sex with a multitude of people; only leaving them wanting and begging for more with no regrets. Some may even call me the devil; soulless. They look and judge, but there is one thing they don’t know; no one does. I want more than this life of stripping and sleeping around; the never ending party. I want love and everything that comes with it; that high that never ends. The problem is . . . I only want it with her. Onyx. She refuses to be mine . . . again. She’s smart and it’s a mother f*cking pain in my ass; guarding her heart while ripping mine right out of my chiseled chest. I can’t say that I blame her. I always was a dumb ass when it came to the emotions of a woman, especially her. She wants to see me suffer as much as I made her; watch me wither and f*cking die at her feet. She wants to crush me until I’m no longer breathing and I will let her, because it hurts far less than not having her as mine. I will stop at nothing to make her mine again. The pain only drives me harder; feeding my fury and giving me a reason to live . . . her. Views: 14

Once upon a time, Major Mick Gilligan, USAF, didn’t believe in Magic. Nor, had
he been told of it, would he have believed in the elf Lisella, or cared that
she had cursed master programmer Wiz Zumwalt, later of Cupertino and now of an
alternate world where magic works like a computer program. But that was before he took his F-15 out over the Bering Sea on a top-priority
intercept, came out on the losing end of a dogfight with a dragon, and found
himself caught in a climactic battle that pitted Wiz and his fellow Silicon
Valley hackers against a couple of computer criminals in alliance with the
forces of primal chaos. Before he was done, Major Mick Gilligan would join with an ulikely gang of
programmers, wizards, elves, dragon cavalry, gremlins, demons and a stolen
Russian super-computer in a desperate effort to save both the world of magic
and his own. Views: 14
Border Baker thinks he's perfectly content in New Mexico, his home for the last three years. But when his father inherits his childhood home in Minnesota and decides to move them again, Border feels he's being held prisoner and force-fed a hometown. People in the town haven't forgotten that his dad fled to Canada rather than serve in the Army in Vietnam, and Border becomes a target of their simmering resentment. Border doesn't want to give up the streets and coffee shops of Albuquerque for church and school in rural Red Cedar. A town full of folks who know his business, a school full of teachers who notice when he's absent, and a social life centered around hockey and pizza isn't exactly what he wants. Or is it? Views: 14
