Homeless and destitute, Claire Stines has no choice but to move into the log house bequeathed to her out in the Minnesota wilderness. Although she has little else to sustain her other than a few dollars and even fewer seeds of hope, she believes she can make a fresh start for herself, and if she's lucky, maybe find a little romance.
But first she has to overcome the rumors of the house's supposedly dark past. More importantly, who is that young man she's seen in the woods and why has he been watching her from a distance ever since she arrived?
And why does he both fascinate and terrify her?
Warning: Contains a decades-old curse, hidden compartments, dead fairies, spirits in the forest, unrelenting winter cold, and a possible explanation for people gone missing in the woods.

Six on Sunday - A FAERIE'S TALE
Six paragraphs
from A FAERIE'S TALEA sensuous erotic fantasy romance novel
Available from
Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and All Romance eBooks
1. If she could have one wish granted at that moment, she would wish she could shed these rough clothes, unfurl her wings, and lift up into the night. She would ascend high enough into the sky where she could grasp the clouds and pull them apart like separating the branches of a tree, until the moon peeked down at her. The wind would caress her skin, and the stars would glitter in the cold, blue-black heavens.
1. If she could have one wish granted at that moment, she would wish she could shed these rough clothes, unfurl her wings, and lift up into the night.

The wind would caress her skin, and the stars would glitter in the cold, blue-black heavens.
2. For several long seconds he relished in the perfect
softness of her lips. In the exquisite taste and smell that was her. The
wildness of the forest permeated the room, filling him with a kind of raw
hunger he had never experienced before. He moved against her mouth again, and
Jill tugged on her hands in a silent plea for him to release them. Caine let
her go, expecting her to break the kiss and move away. To his surprise, her
hands cupped his face and she pressed closer to him. The tips of her breasts
nudged his chest, and the sensation reawakened the hunger he thought he had
managed to tame.
3. Again, he swiped his hand down her back, barely brushing
the wings that rose up and behind her like a jeweled cloak. It was mesmerizing
to stare at them, and at the way the patterned firelight leaking from between
the slats in the screen threw the jewel-toned colors in stark relief. The wings
were lined with veins of black and brown, like a stained-glass window. Inset were
sheer diamond-clear panes, some of which reflected emerald, gold, pearl, and
copper in the firelight. The bottom lobe-shaped edges almost grazed the rug
where they were standing.
4. Jill looked over into the distant trees and shrubs where
many of her fellow fae were watching what was happening. Watching her. Waiting
for her to make the next move, or to signal to them what she needed them to do.
In a heartbeat she could pop into her true size and flit away. At any time she
could escape. Yet her love kept her next to Caine. Next to the man who thought
he was protecting her, when in truth she was protecting him. Although her
powers were not as strong in this size, she could still summon them if the need
arose. She wanted to believe the others of her kind were also willing to aide
Caine and the helping humans, but she couldn't count on it. Fae law was very
clear on how far they could intervene.
5. He barely got the words out of his mouth when the bucket
pierced the tank. Sparks and gas ignited into a monstrous fireball, and threw
burning liquid in a scorching spray across the clearing. The men closest to the
explosion were engulfed, becoming walking pillars of flame. Dry tinder burst
into a conflagration. The reeking scent of gasoline permeated the air around
them, the fumes making breathing dangerous and difficult. Caine threw himself
onto the ground, praying Jill got away safely as he tried to crawl backwards,
away from the fire and heat. He never saw the piece of the truck's rear bumper
as it fell back to earth and partially landed across his neck and left arm,
knocking him completely out.
6. The river threw them over more rocks, bruising his ribs and legs to
the point where he could no longer feel them or the icy water. He was gasping
for every breath, light-headed, and completely drained. It was some time before
he became aware of the fact that he had managed to drift into a small eddy
pool, out of the direct rush of the white water. His boots found sandy soil,
and he half-crawled, half-walked over to the river's edge. Falling on the
ground, Caine coughed up river water until it felt like he would puke up his
lungs. When he was finally able to draw a decent breath, he uncurled his
fingers to find the tiny fairy child still out cold. He could only pray he
hadn't crushed her in their fight for survival.

"Mommy, tell me a story. A fairy story."Jill has a very real fairy story to tell her daughter. Actually she has two: the one she recites at bedtime and the one that is the truth.
Once upon a time there was a faerie whose life was contained in the forest lands of northern Maine. But when unscrupulous loggers began to cut down the trees which were the lifeblood of her people, she was ordered to take human form and find a way to stop them by using human means.
Caine York worked for the US Forestry Service. The last thing he needed was a tree rights activist like Jill Lattimer tagging along. Yet as the days went by he found himself unable to resist the woman's uninhibited spirit.
Unfortunately, Jill was also finding herself falling in love with the forest ranger. The human forest ranger. A man her people would never allow her to be with once they found out.
She would soon find herself fighting to stay with the man who had captured her heart, just as Caine would struggle to have the woman he can not live without. Together they will fight to keep their beloved woods safe from deforestation, knowing that sooner or later one of them would have to lose everything they held dear.
Warning: Contains horrendous weather, big bad humans, lightning from a stick, sex with wings, explosions, drone surveillance, barefoot nymphs, gunfire, and one very recalcitrant child.

Damn Fairy (A Joke)
A married couple in their early 60s was celebrating their 40th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant. Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table. She said, 'For being such an exemplary married couple and for being loving to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.' The wife answered, 'Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband. The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen Mary II appeared in her hands.
The husband thought for a moment: 'Well, this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this will never come again. I'm sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.'
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish. So the fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - the husband became 92 years old.
The moral of this story: Men who are ungrateful bastards should remember fairies are female.

Six on Sunday - BEQUEATHED
6 Paragraphs from BEQUEATHED
An erotic fantasy romance
Available from Red Rose Publishing
http://redrosepublishing.com/books/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=265&products_id=933
1. “Hey, Mike. What should we do today? Want to go down to the lake and see if we can catch tonight‘s dinner?” She grabbed a clean bowl from the dish drainer and poured some kibbles into it. “Here go you, old man,” she said, bending down and placing it on the floor where she wouldn’t accidentally step on it. Straightening up, she looked back at the cat, and her heart leaped into her throat as the dark shadow vanished from behind the window. Her first reaction was immediately replaced with indignant anger.
2. “You’ve heard it, too?” She glanced around the living area, seeing it now from a whole new perspective. “How? You mean it’s haunted?” Tendrils of fear crawled up inside her stomach and threatened to chill her from the inside out, until she caught sight of Mike casually make his way across the living room floor as he headed toward the kitchen. The cat’s nonchalant manner reminded her of how the animal had reacted - or rather, hadn’t reacted - around Horne. In fact, the Bengal gave the deputy a wide berth as it sought out its breakfast. The cat didn’t necessarily distrust the officer, but it certainly didn’t give the man the warm welcome it had bestowed upon Horne.
3. This time she got a soft chuckle from him. The more she was around Horne, the more Claire realized she enjoyed being with the man. No, not enjoyed. It was like there was some kind of invisible magnetic force that kept drawing her back to him. That made her want to be with him. Her self-revelation surprised her. As absurd as this whole curse/spirit scenario may appear to most people, Claire was beginning to understand that not every reality was absolute. That sometimes fantasy and reality could mesh. The story of fairies existed because at some point in the past someone had actually met one. Had perhaps talked to it. Had learned of its existence, and thus the stories were born.
4. An icy blast of wind struck her from behind, but Claire didn’t care. This time the tears she shed had nothing to do with what she had discovered inside the hole hacked into the bedroom wall, and everything to do with the ragged hole left inside her heart.
5. Claire removed some of the salt from the inner space and rubbed it along the tips of her gloved fingers. “You thought you were safe from being found out, didn’t you, Oren? You thought that if the spirits couldn’t find their dead kin, then you were safe. But they got the last laugh on you, you sick bastard. They knew their friends were in here. They knew you were keeping them hostage, and they cursed you and the house anyway.”
6. Kneeling in front of her, he undid her jeans and pulled them over her thighs. He cupped her buttocks, holding her steady, and pressed his face between her legs. Claire shivered, but not from cold. There was no cold, no snow, and no wind within their protective space. She shivered from the desire filling her. From the heat of his breath along her skin, and from the sensuous kisses he was pressing against her mound. When he lightly scraped her with his teeth, she gasped and clutched his head.

Vivi Anna is My Guest Author Tonight on Blog Talk Radio
Join us tonight as I welcome Vivi Anna as my guest author tonight on "Other Worlds of Romance" on Blog Talk Radio. She'll be reading from her paranormal romance GLIMMER.
***
Although Nina Decker's father is one hundred percent human, her mother is not. She belongs to an ancient and rare race of people called the fae. But these fae are not those written about in fairytales, with pretty gossamer wings and fairy dust, no they are sinister, malevolent and unkind, dwelling in another realm called Nightfall. More prone to destroy than to create. Abandoned at the age of ten, to be raised by her father, Nina has never forgiven her mother for that or for ruining her father. A man of only sixty, he appears to be closer to eighty with a frail body and mind. He's been fae-struck and is slowly fading away to nothing. This is one of the reasons why Nina has never gotten too close to any one man. She doesn't want to seal his fate like her father's has been.
But she can't deny her fiery connection to Severin Saint Morgan, a sexy as hell werewolf and the alpha of the Vancouver wolf pack. He's an Australian immigrant working at the university as an associate professor, and the publicized face of the werewolf species. He makes her blood boil with desire and makes her tremble with fear. But its only when her mother reappears with startling revelations about an upcoming war between the fae and the werewolves that Nina realizes that she may be a pawn for both sides.
