Blind Reader Wanted
Georgia Le Carre - 2017
I was born into darkness. Just like a puppy, only my darkness is eternal. Everyone else sees a world I can only imagine, but hey, don't pity me. I don't. I've got a lot of imagination, and I’ve made my world beautiful more beautiful that you can know. When I was a small child, my mother said I used to run into furniture, and if I was not too badly hurt, I’d get back up and continue running down the same path. When I grew older I understood that the world is not built for blind people. I needed a white cane and I needed to trust my bestie, Elaine, and jump when she yelled, “Puddle”. Sometimes, just for the fun of it, she’d yell puddle and there would be no puddle, but generally our system worked well. Now, I’m all grown up and she tells me that the most mysterious man in Durango Falls has stuck a job vacancy on her noticeboard and that I should apply for it. Apparently Kit Carson needs a blind reader. To be honest it sounds a bit like those times she yelled puddle and there was no puddle. But what the hell? I’ll give her a laugh and jump once again. This is the story of what happened when I jumped. Kit. I came to Durango Falls because it was the perfect place to hide. The townsfolk here don't like strangers and I don't like people. So I don’t talk to no one and no one talks to me. Suits me just fine. For five years now I’ve been livin’ alone at the edge of this forest. Just me and the wolves I’ve adopted, but this winter my soul has started hankering for something more. I know it’s sure as hell ain’t for the warmth of a woman’s body. I’m done with that. The military made me into a fuckin’ monster and I wouldn’t put any woman through that. Not even a whore. She’d have to be blindfolded to enjoy herself. Maybe I’m just hankering for a woman’s sweet voice reading to me the way my mother used to when I was five. Just before she died. Think I’ll advertise for a blind reader. A female blind reader. That’s what I thought I wanted. Well all that shit went out the window when I laid eyes on her. Now this woman’s body is all I can think about …

Once Upon a Time
Eddie Cleveland - 2018
The one person who haunts your dreams, crushing your soul when you wake up and realize they're gone. The one person whose name is tattooed forever across your heart, like the clashing kaleidoscope of tattoos that run down his arms. The one person who with you wish you could have had that magical fairy tale ending. For me that was Connor McLean. My brother's best friend. I've loved him my entire life. And I've been the invisible sidekick. The pesky little girl with fluffy hair and gangly legs. I always thought I'd grow up and he'd finally see the real me. That he'd watch the little girl blossom into a woman worthy of his love. But he left. Connor joined the SEALs and broke my heart. So, when I see his familiar swagger across the bar. When his cocky smirk makes my heart flutter, I know this is my chance. It's wrong to deceive him. To pretend I don't know him. But I need him to give me one night. One chance to see that I'm not a little girl anymore. However, my secret is nothing compared to the one Connor has been holding all these years. The one that could tear us apart before we ever have a chance. *** Author's Note:*** This book was originally published as “The Woodsman’s Baby” in June of 2017. The truth is, this novel never really fit into the woodsman world very well. The characters you meet, including the hero, are all people featured in my Fairy Tale SEAL series. That’s why I have republished and rebranded this book to fit the proper series. If you purchased or read this book under the title “The Woodsman’s Baby” please note that this is the same story.
