A Soldier's Choice
by D.L. Warner

They were soldiers. Fight or die was all they had known since they were still boys. Colonel Rik Heron was on track to become the youngest General Joint Command had ever produced. But then his wild protégé, Vincent Greven was lost in a senseless battle born of the crazed ambitions of their superior officers. After two years of a hollow and empty existence, Vincent returns during a cataclysmic firefight. He is older, wiser and irresistible to Rik. While they heal from the last battle and repair old wounds, a deep bond builds between them. Friends and colleagues are not pleased about their relationship or their plans to leave the military. While the pair navigates a messy and dangerous situation, new plots are brewing that put them in the crosshairs once more.

Nihilistic Foibles
Marie Lecrivain

Nihilistic Foibles is a collection of edgy and erotic stories about a young woman's life in Los Angeles. "Lecrivain’s dark and deadpan humor is at its height, blending the brilliance of The Day of the Locust and Lost in Translation into a dichotomous frenetic ennui that is all too real..."

Pasa Doble: The Greenhorn and Line Squall
by Connie Bailey

The Greenhorn
Long, lean and lanky, Jesse “Honcho” Haller is a tough as boot leather ranch foreman. When he played quarterback and dated the Homecoming Queen, no one imagined he’d do anything other than graduate, marry, and raise horses and kids. Somehow, it just didn’t happen.

Lysander “Andy” Kells is young, unabashedly out of the closet, and childishly enthusiastic about all things Western. When two of the ranch hands bully the new owner, the aftermath of the confrontation leads to an encounter that Andy embraces joyfully, but Jesse wants to keep secret. That’s not an easy thing to do in a small town.

Line Squall
Clyde and Donnie were minding their own business and Roy Harold’s cows when a pair of cowboys asked to share the campfire. An unprovoked act of violence leads to bloody vengeance and three deaths. With nowhere to turn, the boys head into the mountains.

With every law enforcement agent in the state and a couple of shady bounty hunters on the trail, Clyde and Donnie must avoid the biggest manhunt the territory has ever seen. Knowing their lives are forfeit if they’re caught, they give free rein to their feelings for the first time and discover a passion worth dying for.

The Price of Surrender
by D.L. Warner

Rage and Regret
Prince Armas of Ritvala was not accustomed to being denied his way especially with women. He had never met the likes of the beautiful and willful Sarianna of Arinpera. His pursuit of her hand and her kingdom against the wishes of his father and the half brother who had won her, cost him his standing as Prince, son and brother. His alliance with the treacherous Queen Taraasta struck a chasm between him and all he had known. Almost immediately, Armas knew he had made a terrible mistake.

Redemption and Reconciliation
More than six years pass. Armas grew tired of his life of leisure and sets about using his skills as a ruler to bring Taraasta’s kingdom back to its former glory. Unfortunately for Armas, the efforts put power in the grasp of the late King’s family -- something Taraasta will do anything to prevent. The assassins ride again this time after Armas himself. He eludes them once. But the second battle nearly ends his life as he tries desperately to save then Queen Sarianna, her family and a beguiling beauty with them from the black arrows.

Love and Light
Armas finds healing of body and spirit in his brother’s home. He also finds love from the lovely Princess he saved from death. But his peril and that of his family is not over. Taraasta does not like to thwarted and Arinpera has thwarted her one time too often. Can such a peaceful kingdom fend off the powerful evil hidden amongst them? Will Armas’ mistake take away all he had gained forever this time? Can the prophecy really save them all?

Details about eating steak and lobster, an iPod, and a coveted jeep back home are predominantly tongue-in-cheek, but this collection is peppered with heartfelt sentiment and desire to maintain contact with friends and family.

The Canon of The Lone Ranger
Steve Goldman

At long last we have Steve Goldman’s The Canon of the Lone Ranger. This legendary poem, this divine comedy, this perfect metaphor of our times, this hilarious spoof, all our issues, all the issues, the Lone Ranger (the male archetype of the 20^th Century), Freud and Mom, this post-modern canon if there ever was one. Goldman goes for those silver guns, throws down on the American agony/ecstasy/absurdity/humor/dark side, and blazes away.

Canticle of a Bored Hausfrau
Marie Lecrivain

From Red
...Red
--rich earth
--sun setting on the ocean
--blooded as that f--cking American flag
--fluttering on a car antenna
I am
soul fire...

She explores abstract reason, surrealism and punch in the face reality at some times graceful, at others, brash and full of piss and vinegar.

From Matisse on Acid
...King of Fauve
still
in soul
shaped a new universe of
paper aura jungles
birds in cerulean glass skies,
zealots crucified on holy walls...

She speaks of travel to foreign soil, observations, feelings impressions that reach from metaphor to eggs in Belfast.

The Hunter versus the Healer
