UPDATE: The winner is…flchen! *~*~* Storm on the Bayou by Elle James A retired Navy SEAL and a pretty parish deputy hole up in a bayou fishing shack, weathering a violent meteorological and unexpectedly passionate storm.

You can hide a lot of bad guys and bodies in a bayou. “Storm on the Bayou” is a prelude to what’s…

UPDATE: The winner is…flchen! *~*~* Star Diplomacy by Kimberly Dean With the threat of an interplanetary war looming, a hardened military negotiator must find a way to connect with the enemy’s beautiful ambassador. When I saw Delilah’s call for proposals, I’d just finished a sci-fi space opera romance titled FALLING STARS. It was a new genre for me and so much fun to write. I conceptualized a whole galaxy with alien (yet very human-like) races. One of the planets was Terrene. It…

Harris After their helicopter is forced down by a rogue war machine, an Army veteran must use wits and fangs to survive with his mysterious pilot. Wolves and helicopters are a natural mix.

UPDATE: The winner is…Diane Garland! *~*~* This Time Forever by N.J. Walters A retired Delta Force operator thwarts a holdup, saving the life of the woman he left behind twenty-seven years ago.

UPDATE: The winner is…Colleen C! *~*~* Weathering the Storm by Natasha Moore During a violent storm, a stranger walks into a woman’s bar who reminds her of the lover she lost who died behind enemy lines years ago. Weather can affect us in so many ways, but I admit I haven’t always used it to its greatest potential in my writing. This story I eventually wrote for SILVER SOLDIERS started as a challenge I gave myself several years ago to write a…
