Short Days

As far as mid-life adventures go, this one was a total bust. I thought trying to free everyone from Frost Mountain would give me a splitting headache. But it was me who got split. One spell gone wrong, and now there’s a part of me stuck in that cold, deadly dimension. And the other part? Back on Earth. It does sound like a relief…unless you’re a prime suspect in a federal case about a missing plane. Or snowed in inside a lonely cabin with a witch hunter. This steamy wolf shifter wants me dead more than anything… But the look in his eyes tells me he’s hungry for something else. ...

Such is the power of fiction. It is largely why I wrote these stories.There are tales about war and how it affected both ...
