Brothers of Amathus Sochi Book 5 I'm not dead. Christ I never was. I've been in hiding. Now, I'm back, better than ever, and there's a dark secret inside of me that I'm not willing to share. Yes, my brothers need me to break my part of the family curse, but I can't even comprehend being normal, let alone worry about a four-hundred-year-old curse. This is going to take some time...and there's not a lot left. My brother is dying, he won't tell the rest, and it's now up to me to keep his secret, too. I have enough troubles. Why do I need his? My mate is lying in her grave, so how is that going to work in my favor? Plus, Stedman is putting me in charge of our sorry lot, and I still have not gotten my bearings as a human. A part of me senses my mate's presence. A part of me wishes I just return to the dark. I was safe in the dark. No one could hurt me. The memories of my past couldn't take aim at my heart. Is it possible to love a ghost? Or did she find a way to find me after all these years?

Forged Souls of Amathus Brothers of Amathus Stephan Book 4 Sending me away from Amathus for a few weeks is not going to curb my lust for the ladies. No. I fear my brother will never understand he can't control the uncontrollable...even if it's all he's ever done. Yes, I know, I'm not looking forward to temporary exile. There should be a way around this. I like fresh meat, and it's an island of 'used goods'. Christ I'm going to get bored in a matter of days. Then again, working for Saxton might prove useful. He's been as bad as me over the years. He'll look the other way toward my dangerous, albeit necessary habits. He'll never tell Stedman what I'm up to. You can take the beast away from the pit, but you can't take the snake out of the man.

Yes, I know. It's supposed to be the other way around. I'm supposed to have a few screws loose in the head. And, perhaps I do. After all, divorce can really eat at a guy. Plus, I'm with a certifiable lunatic. Seriously No joke. She's a pathological lying lunatic.Yes, she saved my house from burning down, and she's a damn good electrician, fixing the fried outlet. She's also as hot as Hell. I can take her anywhere and be proud of the fact she's on my arm. I even took her to Easter Sunday dinner, just to save face.Okay, backtrack. Did you read the part of her being a lunatic? Did I also mention I did not have sex with her, yet she's claiming she's pregnant with my kid? My brother, the Sheriff, and my sister-in-law, our town's mayor, are going to kill me if I can't fix this.I'm trying to fix this. It's simply not working in my favor. And, I'm sure it's in their right to castrate me. They say I'm screwing up, royally, ever since the divorce. Yet, my ex-wife is making certain of this, plastering my face across the front page news on a daily basis. Heck I'm making certain of screwing up just by breathing. Therefore, what are a few loose screws? I'm in enough trouble. I might as well make this trouble worth it...and a little bit of fun. The lunatic is certainly game to my woes.

Brothers of Amathus Saxton Book 1 I don't go bump in the night. I am the night. I'm the terror in your nightmares, and it's my curse. Why? Well, I'll tell you why. A witch came to our door. We were content, living our lives as immortals, doing what we pleased. Now, our souls are damned, cursed by longing. We want what we should not have, and this will continue until we can find our true mate. But, we're running out of time. She gave us five hundred years, and my brothers and I are closing in on that fast. I suppose we should have looked a little harder for our true mate than squander away a few hundred years, but we're men. What more can we say? We like to wait until the last minute. Now, I'm living in a human shell without my soul. I need my identity back, my true self. Is it possible to find the woman I need? Is it possible she'll come to me? I sure hope so. As said, I'm running out of time.

Never try crossing a line that you're not willing to let the heart cross first. Robyn McClone wasn't ready to throw in the towel. Her career stagnant, her love life non-existent, she needed to rejuvenate, and what better way or place than a month long vacation on a tropical island at a nudist resort. It's not as if she'd lose her heart while there. Aiden Porter lost more than any man on this island. A part of him lay on the bottom of the ocean, his soul right there with it. A huge chip on his shoulder, his business defunct, the accident forcing him to live the rest of his life with only one leg, when Robyn McClone sent the fifteen thousand dollars to his bank account he was not about to tell her to stay home. He knew her, boy did he ever, yet he was going to get what he could out of her. She'd all but ruined his family's name, certainly his half-brother's.

Christopher Dobson had his heart broken. Every man has. What it left him was bitter, angry, and having the inability to care.

Perhaps she'll be able to let the instincts kick in.

Miriam Lafayette never thought the loss of hearing was a burden to her. She survived life as it came to her, and so far it looked as if she'd done a good job. She had a son who needed her, a new place of employment, and a new place to live. Anything was survivable, except Brian's death. She did not the label of deaf widow. She wanted everything other women wanted, and more. But at what price did more come to a deaf woman? Porter Hatsworth did his duty. He hired a woman with a true disability.

The sound of the heart is but one moment when you realize you don't need to hear, you just need to feel.

Why wasn't he in control?Colonel William De bache controlled everything. He owned the largest plantation in South Carolina. He had numerous slaves. His servants were more like friends than employees.
