Katarina and Ukraine had one thing in common: they both wanted freedom. Katarina wanted to get away from her conservative religious family while Ukraine wanted to run their country their own way. For both, rebellion was certain. And for both, the journey to independence would be the toughest fight of their lives. The only thing certain in war is uncertainty. Freedom is never guaranteed.
As I started the computer and looked up, Ryan strolled by and glanced in my direction. Our eyes met, and my heart spoke to my brain. I melted, despite what was going on. I was attracted to him in ways I could not explain. He was accompanied by Mona, the HR Director, and they walked briskly to catch the elevator. I did my best not to stare but seeing this made me a little concerned. It’s so bizarre, that we had to behave like strangers at that moment. I sighed and secretly trusted that he would do the right thing.
My name is Sasha, or so I prefer to be called. I’m here to tell you the story about which rule got broken after I got so attached to a man and fell in love because I wore a little black dress. And yes, that damn love hormone, oxytocin, messed me up.
New Yorkers eventually got used to it, calling the earthquake-destroyed area Broken Brooklyn and went on with their lives, accepting the almost two-mile stretch of Brooklyn as a minor inconvenience. Demonic pests became as common as roaches, water bugs, bedbugs, rats, spiders…
And screaming.
Mercedes vanished under the bed in a blink, along with the Gimme Some Rays towel. She began screaming. Hector could only see her legs clothed in black tights and very unsensible black boots with heels.
Sorrow and love
like a hand in a glove
go together.
Filling me up
like the sea in a cup,
free like a horse
with no tether.
Tears are a blessing
to teach me a lesson,
tear me in tatters.
Stretching my soul,
making me whole
and showing me
what really matters.
She stood before the chest of drawers removing her jewelry and saw the sweetest dark chocolate ass walk across the room. He was heading towards the shower. The slight reflection in the mirror didn’t do it proper justice. She suddenly got confused as he walked back to the closet, pacing slowly towards her with a black and gold box in his hand embellished with an overflow of curly ribbon. Within moments, she felt his breath rushing down her neck and she quivered with delight. “I got you a little something,” he whispered, nibbling lightly and blowing inside her ear. “Did you really?” She said softly, weakened by his caress.
“Put this on for me tonight; I’ll see you after I shower.”
Kissing her neck, he left her standing there with the gift in her hand. Smiling, she opened the box to reveal the contents. He was always filled with surprises.
First in a series, but also a standalone. No cliffhanger ending.
A riveting tale of revenge, survival and redemption, wrapped around an unlikely love story and set against an urban backdrop corrupted by violence against women and racism.
Following a racially motivated gang-rape by Ku Klux Klansmen, 12-year-old Cassandra Monroe vows revenge. After eight years of training, now a strikingly beautiful assassin, she accomplishes her mission.
Her campaign continues with solitary walks through dark city streets, hoping to be assaulted by men with bad intentions. Those entrapped by her spider’s web pay dearly for their efforts.
Surrounded by three white men one night, she’s rescued by Mike Borelli, an Italian-American passerby. A stormy up-and-down relationship ensues. Ultimately, as her rage matures into purposeful action, and as he begins to see the world through her eyes, they become a team.
Along the way, they encounter serial killers, wife-beaters, actual and would-be rapists, gangsters, crooked cops, a kidnapper and a pedophile priest, as well as numerous women in desperate need of their help. Beneath all the action, though, is the blossoming of a most unusual love story.
