Opposites attract…and drive each other crazy. Freelance Magic, Book 1 Eight years ago, wizard Ashley Brandon thought his mentor was above the temptation to misuse magic. He was wrong, and the aftermath left him scarred. And determined to never again let anyone close. When he’s assigned to a task force protecting an ancient relic, he butts heads with the infuriating, charismatic Frederick “Charles” Greer. The man is completely unreasonable. And so is Ashley’s gut response to his outrageous flirting. Greer was only supposed to temporarily consult on the task force, but his admittedly unorthodox views on team building put him at odds with Brandon, one of the most attractive, frustrating men he’s ever met. The mission’s success requires complete cooperation, so Greer makes the first move to ease the tension. An apology leads to bickering, which unexpectedly leads them to the bedroom. But as that tension shifts into something more fierce, a brush with the relic’s power turns everything upside down. Leaving the mission—and Brandon’s heart—in even greater jeopardy. Warning: Contents may contain sartorial choices both exceptional and asinine, deception, thievery, magic, naughty language, and one hell of a MacGuffin.

Dear Dennis A widow''s journey through the seasons of grief'' is a compilation of letters written by the author to her husband shortly after he died. He had been her best friend for over 30 years and she couldn´t imagine going a day without talking to him so she decided perhaps writing to him would soften the blow. She wrote 332 letters over the next 3 years. "I think there may have been a part of me that thought he might answer my letters but all have gone unanswered. It was extremely hard to share a pain with him that words really can''t describe but I kept writing and he was always there for me to pour my heart out to." Because she is writing to her deceased husband, her thoughts, emotions, and struggles become very real and heartfelt to the reader. She expresses the raw pain of grief; the denial, anger, regret, depression, suicidal ideation, anxiety, guilt, if-onlys'', longing, insanity, rage and even physical pain. Yet, in the midst of these heartfelt emotions, a love story emerges. These letters will take the reader through her painful journey and her struggle to redefine herself and the reader will begin to understand the pain one endures when a life partner dies.

Instigated by Pope Innocent III, it culminated in the final stand in the castle of Montsegur, which lead to the demise of the Cathar faith.

After five years of searching, Julian is finally reunited with Ellis, only to find him dying, imprisoned by a strange, ring-bound enchantment that is slowly draining his soul.
