In One Picture: N.J. Walters’ “This Time Forever” (Contest)

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.

After twenty-seven years of service to his country, he had some silver in his…

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…

In One Picture: Sukie Chapin’s “Clear to Engage” (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Beverly Blank! *~*~* Clear to Engage by Sukie Chapin One struggling bookshop owner, one hot-as-hell former SEAL-turned-carpenter, one line drawn in the sand—until the job is done, they’re not clear to engage. I’m enchanted by bookstores. We have the most amazing indie bookstore in my town, complete with comfy couches, a table with a jigsaw puzzle where my kiddo could hang for hours, and the kindest, most passionate staff. It’s one of my favorite places on the planet. And,…

In One Picture: Rhonda Lee Carver’s “Broken Trust” (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Debra Guyette! *~*~* Broken Trust by Rhonda Lee Carver A retired SEAL must protect an old flame who’s feisty and more dangerous than any criminal—and dead if he can’t earn her trust. I often believe that writing a book is much like a sensual dance between partners—an emotional, angry dance that evolves into a carnal, submissive, sexy ballet that soon becomes a knotted tango. Have you watched a couple that brings a story alive on the dance…

Getting to Know Kimberly Dean (Contest)

UPDATE: The winner is…Colleen C! *~*~* Why did I start writing? Because my favorite authors weren’t writing fast enough! It was before indie publishing, and authors often had only one book per year. Two, maximum. I sat down just to try, and I remember when something clicked inside my head. I get this, I thought. It was just a lark, and I had no intentions of publishing until I ran across a call for writers. A page in the back…
