Moreover, will she find love at the end of a dark tunnel? * * * * * * * EXCERPT * * * * * * * She was frozen in fear, shaking from head to toe as she watched Rhyvos's skin ripple in a way that looked as if his bone's were shifting into place. Hair began to grow out of his revealed skin and his face became deformed. She blinked and there stood exactly what you would see in every scary werewolf movie. It was just what Abellon called it. A beast. Nothing of the King's body was left. Only a monster. It stood on it's hind leg's and slammed it's front feet into the ground when it was only feet from her before letting out a ferocious roar. Her sight went black and she felt herself fall. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * I HOPE YOU ALL SEE THIS BOOK AS SOMETHING A LITTLE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER WEREWOLF BOOK'S.

The Shamrock Killer by moiraeilis

Book 1 of the Green Blood Trilogy: The Shamrock Killer 'I realized my body was settling into fight or flight mode. I slowed my pace down, stumbling along the wall of the viewing room, feeling my way into the inky darkness as I watched my fingers disappear and I turned into the reception room beside it. Only one more room to go. Tendrils of black reached out in a deadly embrace as I stepped forward and my skin prickled while my imagination ran wild, and fear constricted my heart tighter. The cold was back and sharper than ever, ready to cut like a knife. In that singular moment, I felt something. Another presence. Someone, something, was in here with me. And not something or someone alive.' A chain of unsettling murders is the new reality for Maureen O'Flanigan. Each body is left for Maureen to discover alone at her family's funeral home, and it seems as if Death itself is hopelessly attracted to Maureen as a moth is to a burning light. Add a Goddess of Death and a talking shape-shifting raven with dangerous green eyes into the mix, and Maureen makes herself a promise to find the Shamrock Murderer and save her family before it is too late to even save herself.

Time by FluteQueen03

We are told "time heals all wounds" and "only time will tell". Time is a precious thing. It's a gift. Time decides so much. It can change quickly or seem to morph in slow motion. Time is undefined. What would happen if we travelled through time? What if who we are is still to be defined? Only time will tell. How would, or could, our lives change, with the gift of time? **** Erin Clark is a single mom raising her daughter, Ashlynn. Mysteriously they are transported back in time to 15th century Ireland just before a pivotal time in our history. What happens when she encounters the brooding, stubborn and mysterious leader of a clan? Will things get complicated when his brother-in-law shows a strong interest in Erin? Are his intentions honorable? How will they get home? Or will they have to embrace this new "fairy tale" time period? What will this gift of time unfold?
