About the author:

“I like writing about ancient times. Were men and gods alike stared each other in the eye. When steel met steel as men tried their best to survive. Just like I enjoy writing about unique characters with strong personalities and no one holds a candle to the ancient gods. No mortal can be as primal as Poseidon, the earth-shaker, no man as cunning or wise like the ruler of Olympus and no woman has ever managed to arouse our imagination like the goddess of beauty, Aphrodite. The Greek gods are the original Alpha-males and I write stories to reflect that. No sugar coated words from them, they take what they want and don’t apologize for anything while the goddesses are strong and independent giving the men a run for their money.”

What inspired you to write your book?

For my “The Affairs of the Gods” stories, I chose ancient Greece as a setting and it’s many gods and goddesses as my characters. All my stories are stand alone and they deal with an encounter that usually ends up with some steamy action. “Pygmalion and Galatea” is the first and only story in the cycle that is actually a full romance. Inspired by the myth with the same name this story has a few twists to it and offers some food for thought as well. I wanted to create something different than the usual billionaire/vampire stories and I think the Greek myths are among the first romances ever told. It’s a joy top bring them back to life.

Here is a short sample from the book:

Galatea traced her luscious lips with her tongue in a hungry manner, making Pygmalion desire and dread her at the same time. She was dangerous. Almost as beautiful as Aphrodite, Galatea didn’t have the same majestic demeanor as the goddess. Instead, she seemed younger and more innocent, but that just made her more tempting.
“More of what?” she asked, and he could detect the lingering desire inside her voice.
“I will explain things later,” he said, trying to stall for time. “First, you must eat.”
Pygmalion turned to fetch the jug and platter he left on the table. There were too many things going on at the same time, and he could not think straight, especially not with Galatea looking at him like that. Her brown eyes had the predatory quality of a tigress, and she watched him closely as if he was the mouse she wanted to devour. To make it worse at this point, Pygmalion didn’t even know if he wanted to put up a fight.
He tried to swallow the stubborn knot in his throat as he lifted the clay jug to her luscious lips. Being so close to her was nerve wrecking, but there was no other way. She could not use her hands unless he touched them, and he wasn’t about to lose more of his talent.
One part of him enjoyed the situation; it wasn’t every day he had a beautiful woman helplessly needing his help, and, by the gods, she was beautiful. The other part of him, however, was utterly terrified. One brief touch and more of his talent would seep out of him.
Pygmalion prayed to the mighty Zeus for strength, and he had a lot of need for it. His large hands, usually steady as the stone he worked on, now under her gaze, trembled like leafs in the wind. And they got even worse when her lips parted slightly to allow the milk to enter her charming mouth, and her eyes closed seductively.
Maybe it was because of his shaky hands or perhaps because of her voracious appetite that the creamy liquid escaped from her mouth to her chin then down her stone breasts, coating them in white and filing Pygmalion’s mind with unworthy thoughts.
When she mumbled to say she had enough, Pygmalion apologized about the mess, lying shamelessly that he didn’t notice the liquid flowing seductively between her breasts.

    0 out of 5

    As of 5/22/12 this entire book has been rewritten and reedited

    In 1935, the Nazis established a program called “The Lebensborn.”

    Their agenda, to genetically engineer perfect Aryan children.

    These children were to be the new master race, once Hitler had cleared all undesirable elements out of Europe. Within a year the first institution was built.

    The year is 1943….

    The forests of Munich are crawling with danger under the rule of “The Third Reich,” but in order to save the life of her unborn child Petra Jorgenson must escape from the Lebensborn Institute. Alone, seven months pregnant, and penniless avoiding the watchful eyes of the armed guards in the overhead tower, she waits until the dead of night. Then, Petra climbs under the flesh shredding barbed wire that surrounds the institute and at the risk of being captured and murdered she runs headlong into the terriying desolate woods.

    Even during one of the darkest periods in the history of mankind, when horrific acts of cruelty became commonplace and Germany seemed to have gone crazy following the direction of a madman, unexpected heros came to light. And although there were those who would try to destroy it, true love would prevail. Here, in this lost land ruled by human monsters, Petra will learn that even when one faces what appears to be the end of the world if one looks hard enough one will find that there is always “A Flicker Of Light.”

    What if?

    What if the descendants of the Vikings who settled Greenland and went on to reach North America around the end of the first millennium had stayed?

    Five hundred years later, would Christopher Columbus have arrived to the south of an eastern seaboard dotted with centuries old settlements and towns hosting devotees to Thor and Odin?

    Might the Norse have gone on to build a nation as dominant as the United States of our own world?

    A thousand years after reaching Greenland, Vinland and Markland, would we still have had two world wars? What might the world look like? Where might the political and religious divides be drawn?

    This is the New World.

    ***

    At the turn of the first millennium:

    Eskil, orphaned in war, but now a man, is leading his followers to found a settlement dedicated to Asgard’s gods in the newly discovered lands in the west. There, after tests, adventures and challenges, he will leave a legacy that will grow to become the strongest nation the world has ever seen.

    The Landing is the first book in The United States of Vinland series and is an alternate history that begins the saga with the establishment of the first Markland halls.

    Savage Possession by Margaret Tanner

    0 out of 5

    SYNOPSIS: SAVAGE POSSESSION – Margaret Tanner

    A mistaken identity opens the door for Martin Mulvaney to wreak revenge on his mortal enemy.

    1870’s Australia.

    To save her brother from prison, Elizabeth Campbell rides over to plead his cause with their hostile neighbor, Martin Mulvaney. Caught in a fierce storm she is thrown from her horse. Suffering amnesia from a head injury she stumbles into a camp of rogue gypsies. After days of living in terror she manages to escape her captors.

    Martin Mulvaney, a wealthy recluse lives in a mansion shrouded with dark secrets and scandal. Brought up by a tyrannical father he has never known love or affection.

    One wintry night he finds a young woman (Elizabeth Campbell), collapsed on his doorstep. Babbling and distraught and with no memory of who she is, the only words he hears clearly are “Don’t take me back to the Black Stallion.”

    Believing she has run away from the Black Stallion, a classy bordello, Martin takes her to his bed. Realizing his mistake when it is too late, he sets about teaching her to be the woman of every man’s fantasy.

    Weeks later, he is stunned to find out his dream woman’s name is Elizabeth. She is the granddaughter of his mortal enemy, the proud old Scottish highlander, Fergus Campbell.

    By this time Elizabeth is with child, and Martin is compelled to marry her.

    When her memory returns, Elizabeth does not recall her ill-treatment at the hands of the gypsies, but is shocked to find herself married to Martin. She soon realizes he is not the black hearted villain her grandfather painted him. Is it possible to teach someone who believes women were put on the earth purely to satisfy a man’s carnal needs, the difference between love and lust?

    Enemies from Martin’s past, intent on exacting revenge, kidnap Elizabeth who eventually manages to escape her tormentors.

    By the time Martin realizes he loves his wife, bushfires are laying waste to the countryside, and Elizabeth and her unborn child are trapped. Martin sets out on a desperate mission to save them. On the burnt out grass of the Campbell farm, he has to deliver not one, but two babies.

    For Martin and Elizabeth a new life and love springs force amidst the ashes of ruin.

    The Music of Us by Uvi Poznansky

    0 out of 5

    In 1970, Lenny can no longer deny that his wife is undergoing a profound change. Despite her relatively young age, her mind succumbs to forgetfulness. Now, he goes as far back as the moment he met Natasha during WWII, when he was a wounded warrior and she—a star, brilliant yet illusive. Natasha was a riddle to him then, and to this day, with all the changes she has gone through, she still is.

    “Digging into the past, mining its moments, trying to piece them together this way and that, dusting off each memory of Natasha, of how we were, the highs and lows of the music of us, to find out where the problem may have started?”

    To their son, Ben, that may seem like an exercise in futility. For Lenny, it is a necessary process of discovery, one that is as tormenting as it is delightful. He often wonders: can we ever understand, truly understand each other—soldier and musician, man and woman, one heart and another? Will we ever again dance together to the same beat? Is there a point where we may still touch?

    This is a WWII romance going back and forth between England to the US, touching upon the plight of war brides. It is a wounded warrior romance, which can be read as a standalone novel as well as part of one of family sagas best sellers. Still Life with Memories is a family saga series tinged with family saga romance, fraught with marital issues, and wrapped with a second chance at love.
