Miranda Parkman has spent years recovering from a broken heart. Her girlhood dreams of marriage to the handsome Viscount Charing were crushed when Julian engaged in a sordid affair with his former fiancée. Eight years later, a reunion with Julian grants her wish, thanks to an unexpected afternoon of blissful indulgence. Now, however, Julian's former lover seems determined to steal Julian back--and the gossip has her already in his bed. The Earl of Hetherton is in a bind. Julian hasn't believed in true love since his fiancée betrayed him and married his best friend. Worse still, he's spent years indulging in an ugly affair with the same woman. Now, jaded and with his respectability in tatters, Julian needs only two things from life: a comfortable marriage to produce his requisite heir and a chance to leave his past behind. An opportunity for the first comes when his attraction for a friend's sister leads to an unintended seduction and a trip to the altar. Despite this hopeful beginning, his chance for happiness is marred by one thing--his former lover is determined to have him back, and she won't take no for an answer.

NINJA TRUTHS AND MYTHS!Unmasking The Men In Black While Separating Fact From Fiction. Ninjas are often portrayed in modern culture as cold-blooded assassins, garbed in black, who, armed with Samurai swords, throwing stars and nun-chucks, appear out of nowhere in the shadows of night to sever the heads of their chosen victims without mercy. They are even said to possess magical powers to include invisibility and walking on water, along with exhibiting such superb physical skills that they could easily rank world class in Olympic events such as gymnastics and track and field. You even hear tongue-in-cheek statements in film such as "Only a Ninja can kill another Ninja!". That kind of hoopla might be fine for entertaining the younger audiences who love their super hero comic books, video games and Teenage Ninja Turtle flicks. But what about the adult crowd (like the author) who prefers a good dose of historical accuracy in their movies, books, etc. After all, you have probably heard the saying that "truth is stranger than fiction." The author became fascinated with ninjas back in the decade of the 1980's when the Ninja craze in America had reached its peak. Ever since then I have set about consuming every book, article, and documentary I could feast my eyes upon. What I discovered about Ninjas was actually quite surprising. Their reputation has been highly dramatized by misconception and the popular media. Sure, it may be more exciting to portray them as sword-slinging roof-hopping executioners with mystical powers. But let's get real! Now I'd like to share with you what I've learned. Here is the summation of all that research. And yes, I have found that truth truly is stranger than fiction.

Mexican Radio And Other Short Stories originated as a single book, a single collection, of short stories. It was divided into two volumes to make it easier (and cheaper) to download. Volume I begins the journey that ranges from western to science fiction, historical fiction/fantasy to drama.

The first One wrote in a language no one remembers because the record is long lost to history. You see story's, are universes all their own. This first one's younger sister died young. But she became the Storyverse. Time passed and the first one passed story telling their children and they passed it on to their children and so on. the first One's story's may be long lost but they are far from forgotten. The powers of the first story's, are called the primordial powers. The characters from them are the primordial characters. Around the bronze age, people had no idea about the Storyverse. except for all-hallows-eve. A very select few knew that on all-hallows eve night that they could break through the page and into the Storyverse. One Halloween night a black-smith who had just come out of the Storyverse got an idea. She had a fictional metal from her trip. She, along with her brother who would one day be called the Clock Lord, bound the story metal with bronze. They made it into a ring. One day it would be called a binding ring. The girl put it on. This girl was an author. She found incredible power. She had the power of every world she created. Years passed and binding rings were given to many authors in secret. They became a secret society that still thrives today. 100 years passed until the first interpreter was born. When this descendent of the first one put on the rings she had a very different power. She could enter story's. This interpreter who was born to the Green family (who still thrive today) became Hope. She was the first interpreter. People no longer had to wait for all-hallows-eve to enter story's. Because interpreters could enter story's at will without the need for all-hallows-eve.
