Secrets, Adventure, Fear, & Love : Book Four is a collection of six stories by a team of very talented authors.
Riderless Horse by Chera Thompson
A recent terrorist attack casts a shadow over a family trip to Cairo, which follows the mother through the ancient roads and tombs. But a chance encounter with a local man challenges her to confront her fear and prejudices and take a leap of faith.
The Challenge Seekers by Elaine DeGroot
An eclectic group of ladies in a writing group decide to participate in a writing challenge.
Nightside: The Turning by Michelle L Crocker
One step into the darkness can change everything…
Jayde never expected to wake in the middle of the street, blood fresh on her neck and no memory of how she got there. Rescued by Officer Nick Stevens, she thinks the nightmare is over—until roses arrive with his name on the card and shadows begin following her every move.
A cryptic message lures her to Café Onyx, where Jayde meets Nylora—a woman who knows far too much about the bite on her throat… and the sire who refuses to let her go. To survive, Jayde must choose: deny the darkness, or embrace it on her own terms. But secrets demand sacrifice. And love may be the greatest risk of all.
Part gothic romance, part supernatural thriller, Nightside: The Turning draws you into a world where shadows whisper, trust is fragile, and destiny comes with teeth.
The Four-Leaf Clover by Bernard Doucette
Jenna's trip to Ireland on St. Patrick's Day was supposed to be a dream come true. But on the day of her flight, it's been nothing short of a nightmare, putting the entire trip in serious jeopardy. Could the four-leaf clover she found that morning be the source of all her bad luck or, perhaps, her savior from much greater perils?
Thanks Santa by Bob Welbaum
8-year-old Susie watched her mom and dad fight a lot. She didn’t know how to make it stop so she spent a lot of time alone in her room trying not to hear all the screaming. Christmas was coming and all Susie could thing of was that she didn’t want any toys. All she wanted was her parents to stop fighting. One Sunday after church her and her parents went to the mall. Susie saw Santa in a chair talking to a line of kids. She begged her parents to let her get in line and talk to Santa. When it was her turn, she sat on Santa’s lap and whispered in his ear that all she wanted for Christmas was for her parents to stop fighting. This was not something the mall Santa was used to hearing. How was he going to handle it? What was he going to say?
The Road Less Travelled by Lizzy Stevens and Steve Miller
Mia had dreams of being successful and becoming a Best-Selling author, but she wouldn’t take shortcuts to get there. She worked hard in every aspect of her life. She didn’t have much family to speak of but Nate and Mary were more family to her than her real family. She would do anything for them and they for her. They owned the diner that Mia worked at.
Everything changed for Mia when Nate had to have a back surgery and be out of work for weeks. They called in their nephew, Mason, to help them during their time of need. Mia knew Mason when she was a child but hadn’t seen him in years. She didn’t know what to expect since the only thing she could remember was a boy that used to pick on her and pull her ponytail when they were young. Mia got a call from a film producer interested in one of her books but she needed to fly to L.A. to have a meeting with him. She didn’t want to go alone because it would be nice to have a friend along for the trip. However, there was no way that Mary or Nate could come with her because of Nate’s surgery. Mia was surprised when Mason offered to go along with her. Was Mason only spending time with Mia because he felt like he should? Or Were they beginning to become more than friends?
