What inspired you to write your book?
I'm Yolanda Allard, I'm one of the authors from the Possessed by Passion boxset. I wrote the book Gargoyles: Stone Curse. Gargoyles is a book that is near and dear to my heart. I have always had an affinity for magic, monsters, and things that go bump in the night. The idea for Gargoyles first came to me like many of my book ideas, from a dream. I have very lucid dreams and nightmares. In this particular dream I was running from a group of monsters, and I had to jump off this bridge that crosses the river near my house to escape them. Terrified I was falling when suddenly something caught me from above before I hit the water. I looked up, and a massive gargoyle had plucked me out of the air and was flying me to safety. I took that scene and wrote it into a full novel. I based the book in my hometown, so the bridge, the mountains, the places, events, and the quirky town is all real and wrapped in a package of stony shenanigans and hijinks with some added passion. I hope readers enjoy not only my gargoyles but all of the creatures of the night they'll meet in this boxset.
Here is a short sample from the book:
Gargoyles: Stone Curse
Available in the Possessed by Passion boxset.
International Bestselling Author Yolanda Allard
“Your whole family is dead; so here’s a bunch of money, a rundown estate on twenty acres, and a chance to live in a po-dunk town in the middle of nowhere.”
Three months after sixteen-year-old Violet Kai moves to the small town of Concrete Washington to receive her inheritance from her late uncle, she starts to get the feeling that not everything is what it seems in the sleepy nook of the pacific northwest. During an impromptu séance with friends that ends up in chaos, Violet learns she was bequeathed much more than she bargained for. Six gargoyles swoop in and save her life, only to inform her that she also inherited them as her wards, an ancestral curse, and a book load of magic. With Violet in town, the gargoyles are awake for the first time in years and Violet quickly learns why they seem to need a magical babysitter. Ready to stretch their wings and go wild, they wreak havoc on her life and even her reality.
Pulled into a new world of magic and stony shenanigans, it’s not all fun and games. Awakened gargoyles also mean awakened demons too, demons who are attracted to Violet and her powers. With monsters of all sorts seemingly running loose, it’s up to Violet and her gaggle of gargoyles to fight and contain them. Demons aren’t the only threat in her midst, when long lost memories start bubbling to the surface, they bring with them betrayal, deep seeded feuds, and strong feelings that Violet isn’t sure any amount of magic can fight.

Duty and Desire by Kristina Wright
The only thing stronger than the call of duty is the call of desire. Duty and Desire enlists a team of hot-blooded men and women from every branch of the military who serve their country and follow their hearts. Stateside and abroad, these warriors meet passion and danger head-on.
From the army grunt who unwraps his wife like a gift in “Fighting for Fresno,” to the injured soldier who sets his heart on the line for the nurse who healed his body and soul in “Out of Time,” these tales embrace the ache of deployment and celebrate the sweet relief of shore leave. With a foreword by bestselling author Cat Johnson, Duty and Desire features stories of U.S. soldiers, sailors, aviators, marines and many more. Uniforms have never been sexier.
With contributed stories by Delilah Devlin, Connie Wilkins, Shanna Germain, Craig J. Sorensen, Ericka Hiatt, Kelly Maher, Lucy Felthouse, Catherine Paulssen, Anya Richards, Sacchi Green, Elizabeth L. Brooks, J.K. Coi, Charlotte Stein, Christine D’Abo, Mercy Loomis, Lynn Townsend, Michelle Augello-Page, and Kristina Wright.
Invasion of Privacy and Other Short Stories by Jim Liston
Invasion of Privacy
If you’re the person who murdered my wife and think you’ve gotten away with it, think again. I’m looking for you, and I’ll eventually find you.
Is it wrong for me to try and find the person who ruined my life, even at the expense of stealing a few moments of someone’s privacy? If I invade a person’s privacy without them knowing it, what’s the harm? I guess it all comes down to the question of whether I’m willing to risk the consequence of going to jail if I’m caught. I am. What do I have to lose?
The other stories included are:
The Tourist Attraction
I’m sick of it. Every day there’s a group of them tourists, standing by my fence watching us, pointing and whispering. I don’t know what started it, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna put up with it much longer.
A Novel Murder
“I’m going to kill her today,” he said, “I’ve had her tied up in the basement for three days; it’s time to end it.”
The Doctor’s Pet Fly
A fly only lives for about a month. It seems like a waste of time to train a fly and then have it die after only a month. Maybe he’s found a way to keep them alive longer. He is a doctor, after all.
The Show
Rita looked around at the crowd of smiling, excited faces, concentrating on every detail to commit it to memory; she didn’t want to forget any of it. She shouldn’t have worried; she would remember this for the rest of her life.
Carl and Tabitha
Carl hated his boss and was determined to find a way to get even with him.
Tag, You’re It!
We looked across the valley at a breathtaking scene of red lakes and forests of blue and orange that were alive with activity.
Before They Come Back
Running his claw-like hand along my spine while making an odd whistling noise that I surmised to be their way of communicating, I began to realize they were preparing to cut me open.
Justin’s Love
When Justin first saw Lucille, it was love at first sight. He knew that she was perfect for him. All of his friends and co-workers were envious; she was beautiful.
Ronnie and the Smoke Bomb.
I didn’t tell Ronnie the police had found him sitting on the curb near the car, crying. They said he was sitting there mumbling, “It’s only a smoke bomb.”

The sons of Jordan Birchmier, Christian and Jordan, have been at war with one another for years. When older brother, Christian, caught younger brother, Jordan, behaving badly and had their father strike Jordan from the will, the younger Birchmier swore to get revenge.
That revenge caught innocent Willow, a woman from a poor family that basically won the lottery when she got a job at Birchmier and Sons. Photos of her having drunken sex emailed to Christian dash all of her hopes and dreams, though, when they are used to blackmail him into firing her.
When Jordan and Willow meet, it seems that romance and a mutual desire for revenge cause them to bond. But the plan that they hatch ends with a shocking twist Willow never sees coming.

While trying to calm down, Danika wanders into the woods and passes through an unseen barrier. The world that Danika is forced into is one where all women are witches and their powers are taken… but only through the act of sex.
Will the King of the mysterious tribe that captures her let her go? Or will he keep her as his sex slave for good?
Love’s Storm (Stranded With The Billionaire):Chloe has always been the strange girl. She’s not as wealthy as her friends, and certainly not as pretty as her best friend Amanda. She’s struggling to afford community college while Amanda glides through her expensive university with rich boyfriends.

An unexpected storm throws Amanda’s boat against a small island and leaves the yacht’s captain unconscious, Chloe has to make the whole group work together to survive. Things seem to be going well until another boat crashes into the island, too.

Devious Desires by Lucinda Lovington
Desire can be a dangerous drug, potently powerful and difficult to resist. Place such pleasurable possibilities in the hands of a supernatural, and you have a recipe for, shall we say, decadent disaster…
Sustenance: An Erotic Short: My inner beast prowled inside of me, purring with anticipation as I gazed out, hidden, at the unsuspecting young woman reclining so peacefully in the place she wasn't supposed to be. Sparing her was not an option, for the beast was already entranced by her intoxicating scent, and his will could not be denied…
Salivate: An Erotic Short: The icy blue of his gaze was overwhelming, bathing my body in a possessive light that set my nerves on fire. Moonlight washed over the forest glen, suffusing the chiseled planes of his body in an otherworldly glow, glinting off of the fangs that had begun to emerge from his mouth before my terrified stare. He was dangerously beautiful, and I wondered, nay, feared if I would be able to withstand the passions of a werewolf…
Carnal Kisses: Seduced by the Succubus: Tobias had traversed through my dreams for a multitude of nights, driving me mad with lustful fascination. Oh, how desperately I desired to feast on his flesh, to introduce him to the erotic pleasures a body could experience. I would have him, for the force of my need could not be denied…
Centerpiece: An Erotic Short: Fueled by a hunger born of self imposed sleep, Lenora's desires had blossomed into a desperate desire to feed. Tonight, awakened once more after decades of denial, Lenora would feast. Her immortal progeny had secured for her a mortal prize for her triumphant return to the nighttime world of their society, and with the highest of appreciation she would not let him go to waste…
Deprivation: An Erotic Short: *an erotic vampire short story*
She was the perfect pick, a delectable dessert that would satisfy a hunger that had burned within my body for days and days…
Acquiescence: He was here.
I could sense him all around me, his intoxicating scent permeating every inch of my bedroom. It surrounded me and seeped into my skin, decadent and utterly dangerous. I knew the price I would have to pay, the promises that must be honored when one called upon an Incubus for aid.
He would take what was owed to him, and I found myself unable to control the shivers that swept wickedly throughout my body at the thought…
