The Society


Ellie Danes - 2017
    I don’t do suits. I don’t do meetings. I work with a gun, not a pen. So why am I sitting here again, in my brother’s million dollar office? Because of a girl in a skirt. Why else?

Her breasts, pressed tight against her perfect silk blouse, are begging to be released. I came here to get a job done. Now the only thing I can think about doing is her. The only problem? I’m not her type. She likes professional, tailored, business men. The kind who wear suits, make big deals, and run companies. Men like my brother. I won’t say I’m polishing up my resumé, but I do have a plan to impress her. I’ll show her I can use a pen, then I’ll show her what it’s like when I shoot my gun! She can make up her own mind which she prefers. This full-length novel includes all 5 volumes of The Society plus special bonus content.

In Love with My Brother's Best Friend, Part 1


Sharon Cummin - 2015
    All I wanted was a little time to relax and rejuvenate before going to work the following day. I'd just set my bags down, closed my door, and fell onto my couch when my phone rang. I should have known it was my big brother. That was always a joke with him. We were twins, and he was minutes older than me. He'd been protecting and hovering over me my entire life. Of course he'd call to make sure I was home safe and in one piece. He was a thousand miles away, but it never felt like it. When he announced that he was getting married, I was surprised. They had only known each other for about a year. What he said next shocked me even more. They were getting married in two weeks, and he wanted me to be in the wedding. I hadn't been home for more than a moment in over ten years. He'd come to visit me plenty of times, and he'd even brought her with him. No matter what was happening, I'd always found a way out of going home. His wedding was the exception. My brother was getting married, and I needed to be there. There was only one problem. His name was Jackson, but I called him Jackie. He was my brother's best friend and the reason I'd been running for so long. Could I do it? Could I face him after all those years? I didn't have a choice. I knew I had to go, but I didn't have to do it alone. I talked one of my best friends into going with me. His name was Chris. I promised him a weekend of fun on the beach with all expenses paid. That all changed the moment I saw HIM. I did the only thing I could think of and hoped it wasn't going to blow up in my face. This is part 1 of a 3 part serial. Part 2 will be published in January. Part 3 will be published in February.

My Journey to the Ocean


Lena Mikado - 2015
    Her whole picture-perfect existence is planned out and allows for no deviation. She is engaged to be married and intends to be happy. Along with three of her girlfriends, she takes a summer trip across the ocean, to St. Simons Island, United States. Her whole world is about to be rock-n-rolled, and she will have to face a pretty hard choice. It all sounds like a setup for a summer-fling novel, but is it really like that in actuality, or does Miss Real Life have something more conniving under her sleeve? Are there happy endings in real life? This book is a love story. It's about love in all possible representations, forms and masks it can wear. It's a love story of a girl in her 20s, looked back on by a woman in her 30s, who is also trying to take a peek into the future. It's an ageless book, it's a borderless book, it’s a book that focuses on and laughs at our cultural differences, yet sweeps away all man-made boundaries on its way. But I made it sound too complex. It's first and foremost a story about a summer away from home, it's a story about falling in and out of love - it's a story about My Journey to the Ocean.
