Race To Adoption by Elaine M. DeGroot
A young couple's attempts to adopt...a puppy. (Based on real life questions asked of me and my fears of rejection when adopting our first pup.)

The Summer in Madrid by Terez Peipins
A romantic story of a young gay male.
"Don't you want to be loved or just to love someone?" He didn't tell his mother just how sad love had made him. One more weight of sadness to what he already carried around with him.

Ouroboros by Gary Bolick
"The self-same material that rules the universe, haunts our dreams, distorts our visions; dark matter is the blind-eye of Man turned inward. This strange, wondrous mystery that rules any and all creatures who exist‒will and can be as Prometheus-unchained. "All matters of light, energy, and dare I say-purpose-are drawn from this dark matter," Gottlieb continued, his voice gaining more resonance and power.

Rainbow Escape by Karen E. Rigley
A tale inspired by missing socks in the dyer
"See the colors forming?" Shaylina turned sideways, calling out loud enough for the words to drift back to Kerbon. He always stayed behind and held his distance as required. How she hated that rule. Their positions mid-Clothesline, mandated their continuous separation which drove her crazy. She wanted to be close to that hot body and those liquid blue eyes. Ohh, her stomach tied into laundry knots at the thought. He was strong and handsome, and so sexy. Unfortunately, she knew he mostly saw the back view of her. She'd seen her image in the shimmerpool at Web Central and knew the rear was not her best angle.

A Trial in Sporro by Richard Dalglish
Killandrio Bludd is defending a young man who was arrested while standing over a murder victim's grave holding a shovel. The only witness, the victim's wife, swears the defendant did it. Killandrio smells a rat, but as the trial approaches, he has only days to learn the truth-and hope it saves his client from the gallows.

Deep Dark Secrets by Lizzy Stevens and Steve Miller
She had no clue how powerful she was or why they were after her. Even had to protect her from the vampires. How could he focus on the battle and protect Cheyanne at the same time?
