Even salvation can be delivered through the love of the damned…
Beauty can be a curse.
Faith can be a cage.
Only love can set you free.
A few long weeks after being reluctantly ripped from the comforting embrace of her sacred prophet’s religious commune—the only life she has ever known—a terrified Delilah is thrust into a world enveloped by evil and swimming in sin.
Steadfastly devout in her faith, and retaining the deep belief that her soul is innately tarnished as a branded ‘Cursed woman of Eve’, Delilah is determined to find her way home to her people in The Order and away from the corrupt and damned outlaw motorcycle club—The Hades Hangmen—who hold her at their secluded compound for her protection—a 'protection' she strongly resents.
Delilah yearns to return home, convinced that only amongst her own people, and under the holy guidance of the Lord’s revealed prophet, can her Satan-spawned soul be truly saved. Conditioned her entire life to believe she is a witch... a life-long temptress… the devil’s whore... Delilah increasingly resents her beautiful face, her shapely body and her sensuous effect on men. But when a man of the motorcycle club—a deeply sinful yet stunningly beautiful man—is charged with her care, Delilah begins to see that this dangerous and moralless sinner from the 'outside' may offer her something she did not know could truly exist: unconditional love.
Kyler ‘Ky’ Willis loves his life: a daily abundance of brotherhood, liquor, the freedom of the open-road and—best of all—his pick of hot women. Raised a biker brat and now VP of the most notorious MC in the States, Ky has no shortage of club sluts warming his bed; a situation he takes full advantage of… until a certain blonde enters his life… a gorgeous pilgrim-blonde he can’t get out of his head… a pilgrim-blonde he and his club recently-rescued from some backward religious cult… and a pilgrim-blonde he’s been ordered to keep the hell away from and his whorish hands off.
When yet another in a lengthy line of drunken blunders forces Ky to reluctantly take charge of the pilgrim-blonde’s care, he realizes that there could be more to this woman than just supermodel looks and a stacked set of tits. He begins to see that she could be the woman who could do the impossible—tame his wild ways and capture his reluctant heart.
But the unyielding bonds of Lilah’s past are strong, her ‘people’ determined and, with a new Prophet in charge and hell bent on revenge, they are mightily reluctant to let her go...

Humourous stories with a twist in the end of each tale. How a witch loses her powers and defeats her witch friends with kindness, how a rich man sells his spoiled children as pets, how a father forces his children to play backyard cricket through a bushfire and saves the day, how a newspaper boy lies to get the girl but comes undone ... and more.Rare Pets and other Oddities is a collection of stories characterised by black humour with a twist in the end of the tale. A witch loses her powers and defeats her witch friends with kindness. A rich man sells his spoiled children as pets. A father forces his children to play backyard cricket through a bushfire and saves the day. A newspaper boy lies to get the girl and is defeated through his own mendacity. Two girls try to compel adults to be happy, only to achieve their purpose when they give up. Parents try to cure their son of his medieval obsession through unorthodox means. A golfer who teases bald men has the tables turned on him. A young girl invents a fake boyfriend to turn her older sister off love, only to fall in love herself. Young neighbours compete with escalating pool parties, only to learn popularity isn’t everything. A young boy absorbs curiosity about the universe through his sister’s birthday present – the astronomical refractor. Two scientists fake a new species and are shamed on national television. A father tries to scare his sons to sleep only to be shot with a tranquilizerThese stories have the moral wisdom of Aesop, the absurdity of Roald Dahl and David Walliams and the larrikinism of Andy Griffiths. Children know the world can be both cruel and generous and these stories reflect that. They are ethical but never didactic. Their primary effect is simple – entertainment. The collection is aimed at upper primary school boys and girls. Adults read them and laugh, and yet the story is never ‘winking’ above the children’s heads to their parents or teachers with separate jokes … the humour, quirky as it is, comes from irony, from the recognition of universal human types and frailties.

Last weekend I was looking through my computer. Over the years I've written short stories on whatever subject that interested me at the moment. Here is a sample for you to enjoy.Last weekend I was looking through my computer. Over the years I've written short stories on whatever subject that interested me at the moment. Here is a sample for you to enjoy. In the properties of each file I found the earliest date recorded on my present computer and listed it. I included it for your information only. I only did minor editing to clean up the stories. I only ask one thing. After you read these stories, please go to the end of the book and click on the link and let me know how you liked each story. A simple GOOD, BAD, TERRIBLE, QUIT POLLUTING THE INTERNET WITH E-BOOKS, or any other comment will let me know which type of stories you like. I don't aim to please, because I write for my enjoyment, whether you like them or not. However, I do listen and sometimes change my mind.Back before I knew about e-books I took a writing course online. One of the questions asked was my goal to get published. Because I knew that the publishing houses controlled writers, I replied that I wanted to collect a thousand rejection slips. The instructor praised me for my attitude because she said that many aspiring writers gave up after rejections by the print publication houses. I failed because I only collected seven before I discovered online publishing at Smashwords. No use banging my head against a brick wall where someones else's preconceived ideas limit my freedom of expression. Views: 809
