“What is love, really,” he asked, placing his glass in the table and looking pitifully across the table at her, “is it really just a serial heartbreak… A death by a thousand cuts? Am I to wait hopelessly for it to devour me?” “Yes.” She took his hand and met his sadness with compassion, “YouContinue reading “What is Love, Really?”

Romance Series
She liked to think of it as her Romance Series… Over the past three years she had been through a slew of intense short romances, Tucker, Tommy, Amy, Greg, Kyra (Oh, sexy Kyra!) and now Wes.

Compulsion
He knew he needed help. His obsession was unhealthy. Or was it a compulsion? It didn’t matter. Either way, self hatred filled his soul… He was going to stop, though. This time He wouldn’t give in.

Shattered Together

Boogers
The plan was foolproof… Sneak in, plant the evidence and leave. The guy didn’t even bother with an alarm system. It should have been easy money but it wasn’t.

The Library
The library, once her sanctuary had become her prison in ways she could not understand. She used to revel in the musty scent of old books, never quite free of dust. Her heart would race to find a rare gem in a forgotten stack and the weight of the silence would settle around her, likeContinue reading “The Library”

Pregnant
The cat walked like a drunken sailor on a three day bender for a few steps before plopping heavily onto her side. She was ripe to give birth soon and unable to propel herself more than a few yards at a time. “There you are.” She felt herself being lifted, swollen belly and all. “We’veContinue reading “Pregnant”
