Egg-cerpt:
Morgan was suddenly distracted by the arrival of another patron. A man, strangely enough.
A compelling man garbed in black, with dark hair streaked with gray and bound at his nape. His gaze swept the room before he walked to one of the chairs by the glass doors and sat. His posture was almost military and his legs parted in a masculine pose that seemed at odds with his uncommonly refined attire. While he wasn’t exactly goth, he certainly wasn’t a normal. Unique was the only word that suited him.
Morgan turned toward the window and discreetly studied the man’s reflection. His great taste in clothing aside, she couldn’t quite determine whether he was ugly or handsome.
Beneath the table, Uma kicked Morgan’s leg to gain her mother’s attention. She shifted her gaze in the man’s direction.
"What?" Morgan mouthed the word.
"Cute," Uma mouthed back.
*Way too old for you*, Morgan thought, hoping Uma would have the common sense to use her telepathic gift so their companion wouldn’t suspect he was the subject of their conversation.
"I meant for you," Uma whispered. "And I do have common sense."
"I told you, Uma, I’ve given up on roller skating," Morgan said, alluding to her rules regarding the opposite sex. "I’ve had too many falls."
"Because you were wearing badly fitting skates, Mum," Uma said, then lowered her voice. "I’m going to check him out."
Morgan sighed, a smile flirting with her lips. It wasn’t ethical for Uma to use her telepathic powers to scope out dates for her mother, especially when Morgan had no intention of wasting her time on men. She had her jobs and her kid. That was more than enough for any woman.
Uma’s brow furrowed and she turned back to her tea. "That’s weird."
"What?"
Uma reached into her pocket book and found a pen. She scribbled a note on her napkin.
*I can’t read his mind.*

More innocent lives will be lost if Samantha Garrett, the DEA agent known as The Human Lie Detector, is unable to solve the mystery surrounding a secret formula that controls minds. Her career took a roller coaster ride after her last case went badly, but she still has a chance at the promotion dangling in front of her and she refuses to lose it now. While searching for the suspect that got away, she must fight her feelings for his brother and handle the repercussions from her last case, which haunts her still.
Kevin Brewster, a mild-mannered, dedicated doctor, has spent his life trying to make up for his father’s crimes. His work life revolves around a clinic helping those in great need with no resources to take care of themselves. To that end, he has become inventive and daring. In addition to his work there, he must now prove his brother’s innocence before the by-the-book DEA agent discovers their secret.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sara glanced over her shoulder when the screen door opened. Mike. The pan she'd been drying fell from her hands and clattered to the floor.
"We need to talk."
"Where's Garrett?" she asked, attempting to peer around his broad shoulders. She tried not to make eye contact with him. As long as she didn't look him directly in the eye, she'd be able to maintain her composure.
"You've always put him on a goddamn pedestal."
She bent over to pick up the pan. "Don't you dare say anything unkind about him."
"He's a pain in the ass."
Sara shot him a look. "He's not the only one."
A slow smile curved his lips. "Now there's the Sara I know and love."
"Don't you dare throw that word around. If you loved me we wouldn't be in this situation." A surge of emotion tightened her chest, and she silently cursed herself for letting him get to her.
Hands on his hips, Mike sighed. "Look, I know you have every reason to believe that, but it's just not true. I've loved you since the first moment I laid eyes on you."
She paused. God, how she wanted to believe him. But if he'd truly loved her as he claimed, he'd never have been able to stay away for so long. She swallowed past the lump in her throat and reached into the drainer for something else to dry.
"All right, I'm done playing. Come on, we're going for a ride." Mike reached out and grasped her elbow.
"I'm not going anywhere with you," she said, yanking her arm free. "If you want to talk, we'll talk, but we're doing it right here." She tossed the dishtowel on the counter and crossed her arms over her chest.
"You either follow me to my truck or I'll throw you over my shoulder and carry you there. But one way or another, we're taking a ride."
She gasped. "If you touch me I'll scream bloody murder."
"Then I guess I'll have to gag you as well."
He took a step toward her. She took a step back.
"You stay the hell away from me." She took another step back and bumped into the table.
"Not a chance. I made that mistake once, I won't make it again."

Price: E-Book $6.00
Print $12.99
"So you're a vampire."
Clio was once again back in Kryssin's room packing for the trip she didn't want to take with a man she couldn't trust herself to be around. Picking a fight seemed the most reasonable solution to her hormonal problem.
"No."
"You have that whole mind thing going."
"Yes."
"You've been around for a million years."
"Yes."
"You've got issues with sunlight."
"Yes but-"
"You can turn all freaky when you want,"
"I suppose you can call it that but-"
"Then you're a vampire."
"No, I'm not."
"But you drink blood, shrink in sunshine and can put a whammy on someone's mind."
"Yes."
"Vampire."
"I'm not a damn vampire, woman."
"But you have the whole blood thing going on?"
"Yes."
"That makes you a vampire."
"No, it doesn't."
"Let's try this again," she said ticking off each finger as she spoke. "You drink blood, you have a problem with the sun, you have the pointy teeth thing and you sleep during the day. I say that makes you a vampire." She paused as a new thought occurred to her. "Can you change into a bat?"
"Why would I want to? And I'm not a vampire!"
"It's okay, really, I won't tell anyone, but you can't keep denying it when you don't have a reflection. It's a huge vampire give away."
Kudos,

Warmed by the drink, she smiled. "It's a good thing neither of us has to worry about making another connection once we get to Denver." She leaned toward him and held out her free hand. "I'm Breanna, by the way, but most people call me Bree."
He lowered his drink to the table and reached across it to take her hand. His fingers chilled by his glass curled gently around her own. "I'm Steven. Most people call me...uh...Steven."
She laughed, liking his sense of humor. "Fair enough." She released his hand and scooted back in her cushy chair. As she did, his gaze followed her movement almost as if he wanted to undress her and was trying to decide how to do it. When he realized she watched him, he glanced down then stiffened visibly. His long fingers curled into fists and his body moved slightly toward her.
Bree looked to see what had captured Steven's attention. Her magazine sat on the coffee table at a half angle where both of them could clearly see the photograph of the man licking his way down the woman's body. Horrified that she had tossed the magazine opened to that page, she jerked upright.
A slow hiss escaped his lips, and he looked at her with a question in his eyes.
