Ghost of a Chance is a SHORT STORY...
Susannah's married to her career. And she's about ready for a divorce. Drowning in grief over the loss of her husband years ago, she initially immersed herself in a high-powered position at her marketing firm. But recently, she's lost that loving feeling. Is she finally able to accept that her need for a man, for love in her life is stronger than her desire to bury it?
Remy, once a high-profile building magnate, is a ghost of a man, literally. Cursed by a vengeful ex-wife he neglected, he's relegated to shadows of his former world. She meant for him to spend the rest of his life without the chance of normalcy ever again, and he believed she succeeded. But could there be a way out?
Susannah and Remy, two people ghosting through life, until they are brought together by a fateful One Night Stand. Both are seeking re-entry to the land of the living and loving. Can they fulfill each other's deepest desires and learn what it means to live again?
EXCERPT:
"Will you join me over here or shall I join you in the mysterious shadows?"
"You're lovely over there. Stay. The way the light plays against your hair and sparkles in your eyes, well...you're breathtaking, Susannah."
Rendered speechless by his intensity, she stood as still as the statue they spoke of, and... blushed. Her cheeks were on fire! Get a grip, Susannah! "Thank you. I....I, heck." She blew out a breath and started again. "Come over here so we can sit and get better acquainted."
He still didn't move. Is he so shy that he hides behind trees and in shadows?
"Do you think I'll get to see you before the night is over?" She heard a soft chuckle. Good, maybe a little humor will loosen him up.
"Perhaps. I'm a bit nervous, as you can no doubt tell. I haven't had any success with this kind of thing before."
She took a step toward him—she would have to be the aggressor. "Neither have I, and I'm a little nervous, too."
"You mentioned in your bio you were interested in a magical experience. One that would 'sweep you away'." His voice cracked, and he cleared his throat.
"Yes, I am." She inched closer to the frozen, outlined figure.
"Before you take another step, you should know I'm different."
"I read in the New York Times that you became reclusive about ten years ago. You've taken great strides toward ending that by being here now."
"There's a reason why I keep to myself. It may startle you, so be prepared. I am very much on the magical side of this world at the moment."
Before she could move, he did, which brought him out of the shadows and into the light. Susannah gasped, startled at the transparency of the man who stood before her. Nervous laughter bubbled in her throat.
"What is this, some kind of joke? A holographic image projected here while you hide safe and secure in your room?" "I'm afraid not. I've been living an alternative lifestyle lately." He opened his arms as if to show himself off and let them fall back to his sides. "And this is all I am. I'm a ghost of a man, Susannah."

She longs to have her faith in her fellow Marines restored.
Kim wants a man who knows what she needs.

Wendy Burke
Author · 2 books
Just to clarify my page...I write erotic romance, not cookbooks. As a matter of fact, it's a good thing I'm married to a chef, because I have very easily messed up NO BAKE cookies. I wish 'Wendy Burke Cookbook' author all the best—but her books keep getting posted to my page! And, now—on to my bio! Although not my plan in life, I've been immersed in media for more than 35 years. Despite blowing off my TV classes at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, I am now a TV producer and prior to that a newsroom assignment editor. My first love(and media success) is/was radio, which has changed so drastically over the last few decades it's nearly unrecognizable. Because of that love of painting 'mental picture,' I've been able to cross off an item on my Bucket List, that of being a published writer through e-pub house - Decadent Publishing!

Travel to the UK (London, Surrey, & North Yorkshire), and you meet people—young and more mature—struggling to find ‘The One’ amid the drudgery of day-to-day life, never mind if they’re a simple graphic designer working from home, a world-renowned supermodel battling anorexia, or a reluctant heiress on the run. Take to the Corpus Agency mantle, and become lethal spies & assassins who nevertheless feel the call of love in their dark and shady lives… A Muslim of Indian origin & a 2x breast cancer survivor, Zee lives in paradise (aka Mauritius!) with her long-suffering husband, their smart-mouth teenage son, and their tabby cat who thinks herself a fearsome feline from the nearby African Serengeti plains.

Ann Mayburn
Author · 71 books
Ann is Queen of the Castle to her wonderful husband and three sons in the mountains of West Virginia. In her past lives she's been an Import Broker, a Communications Specialist, a US Navy Civilian Contractor, a Bartender/Waitress, and an actor at the Michigan Renaissance Festival. She also spent a summer touring with the Grateful Dead(though she will deny to her children that it ever happened). From a young age she's been fascinated by myths and fairytales, and the romance that often was the center of the story. As Ann grew older and her hormones kicked in, she discovered trashy romance novels. Great at first, but she soon grew tired of the endless stories with a big wonderful emotional buildup to really short and crappy sex. Never a big fan of purple prose, throbbing spears of fleshy pleasure and wet honey pots make her giggle, she sought out books that gave the sex scenes in the story just as much detail and plot as everything else-without using cringe worthy euphemisms. This led her to the wonderful world of Erotic Romance, and she's never looked back. Now Ann spends her days trying to tune out cartoons playing in the background to get into her 'sexy space' and has learned to type one handed while soothing a cranky baby.

Heather Long
Author · 173 books
I love books. Not just a little bit, but a lot. Books were my best friends when I was growing up. Books didn’t care if I was new to a town or to a class. They were always there, my trustiest of companions. Until they turned on me and said I had to write them. I can tell you that my own personal happily ever after included writing books. I’ve always said that an HEA is a work in progress. It’s true in my marriage, my friendships, and in my career. I am constantly nurturing my muse as we dive into new tales, new tropes, new characters and more. After seventeen years back in Texas, we relocated to the Pacific Northwest in search of seasons, new experiences, and new geography. I can’t wait to discover what life (and my muse) have in store for me. Maybe writing was always my destiny and romance my fate. After all, my grandmother wasn’t a fan of picture books and used to read me her Harlequin Romance novels. Friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, friends to enemies to lovers, you name it, I love them and love to write them. I started with Earth Witches Aren’t Easy, the first in the Chance Monroe trilogy, but my characters and I have traveled a long way since I created that urban fantasy world. One of the series I hear my readers recommend the most is the Untouchable series followed in quick succession by the Vandals, and that just delights me. No lie, whenever one of my readers brings up my wolves, I do a little a fist pump. I’m active on social media, and I love hearing from readers. Feel free to tag me with a question about any of my books, or just say hi!

Dakota Trace
Author · 29 books
Hello, and welcome to my site. I'm Dakota, an author of erotic romance (think 50 Shades of Gray - but better) and paranormal erotica. And what exactly does that mean? Well, since I've always marched to the beat of different drum: it means that I get to take my unique life experiences - like putting around in the garage with my dad, or driving a train when I was ten, to create worlds where the heroines aren't necessarily June Clever, but are strong independent women who may stand on their own two feet, but long to submit to the right man. Whether it's two friends who realize there is more than friendship between them or the sexy alien who captures his unwilling slave's heart, sparks fly between them. My imagination has no bounds or at least none I've found yet!
