The
Newest God of Olympus
by L. M. Townsend
Ares asks the other gods to allow the actor who portrayed him to join
them on Olympus. The gods discuss the TV series which has brought them back
to the attention of mortals and try to decide if this is reason enough to
reward the mortals who portrayed the characters in the show with a place in
the sacred residence of the gods.

Women on the Rebound (Part 1) by K.C. Kirkwood
Alex Harrison-Reider has a pretty cynical outlook on life. Forced into a loveless marriage, she adopts the role of a somewhat unconventional housewife, solely devoted to being a thorn in her husband's side. Richard, unable to tolerate his wife's infuriating antics, devises a supposedly cunning plan to sanction her. Unfortunately for him, being institutionalised does nothing to placate the headstrong Alex and only serves to hone her rebellious streak. Pushed to the edge and seeking escapism, Richard immerses
himself in his thriving business and resorts to hiring a 'baby-sitter' for his wayward wife. While the cat's away, the mice will play, but taming a wary Alex is no easy task. Has the enigmatic Kerry Chapman, still reeling from an earlier ordeal, found an unlikely ally? Or does Alex possess the power to destroy her completely?

What happens when you attend a reunion after 20 years? Have you waited too
long to receive an answer to the question that has been plaguing you all this
time? Will You Remember Me? tells the story of Rhiannon and Angela who, after
so many years apart, meet again at their 20-year reunion. The answers to the
questions they seek and the trials and tribulations they face in attempting
find their place in each other's lives will weave a tale that will have you
reading till the end.
Sloane Denton, head editor at Tandem Publishing, is all work no play. Dealing
with obnoxious writers, overly-enthusiastic staff members, and pig-headed
executives on a daily basis keeps her busy. Not that she minds; life is good
and being a bitch has its moments. But when law student Gracie Sheridan sets
her inquisitive mind on something, even wisened up old battle axes like Sloane
don't stand a chance...
This is the halfway point of the wonderful books detailing the lives,
love, and passion of Ryan and Jamie and their friends and families.
A
shy, closeted girl goes to a party because her object of obsession is going.
Sound familiar? But wait, there's more. Throw in a secret society, a conspiracy,
and a baker's dozen of Kansans and you get a happy ending or an infomerical,
I forget which.
A short Valentine's Day story
Summary pending but had one of the best submission letters to date <g>
(Set in the modern Xenaverse, Berkeley California) In order to become
one of Ares' elite Arms Masters, Harmonn Sharpe must kill the leader of the

Life is
always a challenge. Especially to young Torina Montgomery. Her life takes
a turn for the better when she and her family move to a new house, a new town....damn,
and even a new country. But these aren't the only new things that the quiet,
introspective girl experiences. Love can appear under the most innocent of
circumstances. Wanting someone is one thing, but actually taking them is another.
Particularly when what you really long for is totally taboo....and totally
forbidden.
