My Second Chance Secret Babyby C. Morgan

It’s no secret that every woman wants me.

Charming, wealthy, and I have an empire for my legacy.

Unfortunately for most, I’m not the family kind of man.

You might call me a lone wolf.

The guy who stands alone and loves it.

Late nights, good booze, and a hot woman on my arm are all I’m after.

Until a hot number from my past resurfaces.

She used to be the one I dreamt of growing old with, back when I wasted my time on hope, dreams, and the lies they offer.

Crazy enough, the chemistry between us is off the charts.

It’s been a long time since a woman has left my heart racing, my hands sweaty, and my body aching for a simple touch.

So I do what any gentleman might do to get around a lady he’s interested in–I offer her a job.

But something’s off.

She’s got a little girl, and the angel looks a little too much like my side of the family.

Surely not.

I’m not looking for a long-term relationship, just a rekindling between the sheets.

Or so I tell myself.

When the nagging truth is that maybe this is my second chance with the only girl I’ve ever loved.

Not sure if fate is offering me a dream or a nightmare, but either way, I’m taking it.

This woman is mine.

A Wound in the Earth: A Novelby Jason Durant

Hubert, Angela, and Ralph Barney are riding horses in the grasslands when they discover an enormous egg. To the palms of their eager hands, the egg communicates a message of life, of a heart ticking. To their rapt ears, pressed against the shell, it speaks of something deep, something primeval. They do a reconnaissance, frightful thoughts chugging through their minds: What kind of monster laid it? What danger does this portend?

The Brit, Malcolm Moreland, totes a large-caliber rifle and all the ammo he can fit on his web belt. The Brit is full of cautionary tales for the Barneys as he and they take cover and wait for the egg to hatch. Before long, eggshell begins to chip away and something frightful pokes its head out. The Barneys leave their idyllic childhoods behind when they and the Brit follow the giant hatchling into another world.

Thirteen-year-old Chad Garrick lives in the shadows of the Barneys, and within his own special kind of darkness. Secretly, he follows the Barneys and the Brit into the land of giant birds, unaware of the peril that awaits them and all of humanity, for the giant birds are a former earth species driven to extinction at the hands of thoughtless humans, and want nothing more than to exterminate the human race.
