Sex or Suffer

2008

Devastated to discover she harbors the SOS virus, medical researcher, Dr. Penelope Drake hires Captain Gray Wyckoff to take her across the galaxy to the cure on Parsec Five. As Penelope fights for a permanent remedy to cure this monstrous disease, the deplorable question in her mind repeats: How did she contract the virus in the first place? Captain Gray Wyckoff burns every bridge he's ever built to get Penelope there, only to find she can't deliver the payment she's promised. Serving as her temporary sexual cure along the way only adds to his feelings of betrayal. He thought he loved her. Now he's not sure he can forgive her. Love her? Leave her? The choice between sex or suffering has never been so hard to make. Especially when he has to watch her have sex with another man. \\\* "Being a romantic at heart, my favorite stories are those where love is discovered between a hero and heroine and the ultimate struggles they face to be together. Why then would a woman decide to sleep with two different men? That provocative question began this book and my answer came in the form of a virus called Sex or Suffer. Enjoy." Lara

Sexual Memory

2014

Jeremy Cahill will stop at nothing to find his missing love, Angelica Brice. Not even crossing into the Forbidden Zone to retrieve her prevents his illegal search. Not even if she can't remember him or what they mean to each other. Not even if she also loves William, who's saved her repeatedly in mortal combat during her absence. Parisa wakes up in a gladiator's arena chained to a stranger and with no recollection of her identity. She and William fight for their lives in the gladiator ring to earn their freedom. Named by the man who saved her life, Parisa has only one memory, a very satisfying sexual memory with another man, or is he only a dream? William is falling hopelessly in love with Parisa as they battle mutant monsters in this primitive world. His only recollection is dancing with a beautiful bride in a castle at sunset, but is it his wife? Or can he keep Parisa once they're free?
