Written in the Stars: A Contemporary Hollywood Romance

My laughter was cut short by a swift kick from inside. "Ow. I think you're in trouble because he's probably going to be just like his father—charming, devilishly handsome, and frustratingly impossible."
"It will be nice to have an ally around the house. Someone to help me melt those last few pragmatic recesses of your heart. You better watch out, Katherine, with two of us working our magic on you, you might just start believing in fairy tales." He smoothed his hand over a lump caused by Little Lachlan's restless feet. The wonder in his eyes as he watched the life he helped create was more magical than anything I ever thought possible.
Smoothing my fingers over his clean-shaven cheek, I urged him to face me. "Lachlan, I already do."
He kissed me, and with his lips brushing against mine, he breathed, "I thought the princess was supposed to marry the prince, not the wizard."
"Maybe that's the point she was missing all along. It wasn't until the wizard came along and cast his spell that she understood it wasn't a choice or an 'either-or.' She could marry both the prince and the wizard if she allowed herself the freedom to live more than one story."
Moisture gathered at the corners of his eyes. The lip quiver threatening to reveal his failure to maintain composure quickly transformed into a wicked grin. "You really married the wizard because you heard the fantastic tales of his magic wand, right?"
"See what I mean about impossible? What am I going to do with two of you?"
He smiled. "Live happily ever after."

CURING DOCTOR VINCENT
Elaine Watkins, Public Relations Advisor, is surprised when she receives a summons from the very attractive and enigmatic Dr. Xavier Vincent. She worships the talented physician and company icon responsible for developing the cure that saved her sister’s life and isn’t immune to his charm. Even though puzzled by his request, she is excited and eager to get started on his latest project.
But Dr. Vincent has other ideas. Instead of discussing cures, drugs and marketing strategies, he asks Elaine to join him in Paris to indulge his unique sexual appetites.
Torn between gratitude for saving her sister, her attraction for the powerful man and compromising her pre-conceived notions of sexuality, she must decide if it’s easier to feed his desires or walk away. Until she devises a plan of her own.
“Make no mistake, Elaine, I am a king. Kings command and conquer. They are brutal and uncompromising. You don’t want a king. Face it, you came here expecting a saint.” —Dr. Xavier Vincent

SYMPHONY OF LIGHT AND WINTER
Love never dies, but sometimes it plays dead.
For Linden Hill, life was predictable—go to work, an occasional drink with friends, and repeat—until one unexpected night when she finds herself face-to-face with her past—all six-foot-five-inches of sex-god perfection she once knew as Cyril. The problem? He died. Or so she thought.
But Linden's long-lost love isn't welcoming her with open arms. Fueled by suspicion and doubt, their turbulent re-acquaintance drives Cyril to desperate acts. The chance at renewing their love is jeopardized, pulling Linden into his war with supernatural rivals hell-bent on his destruction.
Defeating the enemy seems easy compared to surviving each other. With hunger threatening to consume them, and love begging to endure, can Linden learn to accept who she must become to save them both?

Who wouldn’t love to be immortal, beautiful, and as powerful as the warlock king?
Eudora Spence, that’s who.
In his final act, the warlock king gifted all of his powers to his one true love, but hadn’t the breath to explain how it would change her forever. Since mating with mortals is forbidden, he never revealed he was anything other than a human man.
After Julian’s death, Eudora finds herself alone and immortal in a world that rejects her. Possessing Julian’s magic makes her too powerful to be destroyed by conventional means and there are only a handful of beings capable of bringing forth her demise. Seeing her as a risk, the governing council collared her to suppress her magic and tasked her with tending the library of rare magical tomes.
Five years have passed with no end in sight, until the day she meets the new king, a vampire named Marcus Valentine. He’s handsome, irksome, and exactly what she needs—someone powerful enough to kill her.
