Six Months Was Hardly a Life Sentence! After all, Linnet found Cassie, her six-year-old charge, a delight. She would enjoy the time she spent helping the little girl with her English. It was spending time with Max de Angeli, Cassie's father, that Linnet found confining. She suspected that Max had been partially responsible for his wife's death. She also knew that the wealthy Italian would not let her leave Venice before her six-month contract expired. Linnet's common sense told her she was temporarily caught in a gilded cage, but in her heart she knew she was a willing captive…forever.

A dark lesbian romance retelling of the Hades/Persephone abduction story, set in mythological ancient Greece. In the land of the dead, Queen Hades’ word is law. Hades gets what she wants—always—and what she wants is a certain goddess of the springtime. Innocent Persephone chafes beneath her mother’s hawkish gaze and mercurial temper. Demeter has rebuffed all her daughter’s suitors, but she is not yet satisfied; she strives to crush Persephone’s spirit. Still, when Hades pulls her into the dark realm of the underworld, Persephone longs for the world above, even if it means an eternity under her mother’s thumb. With her tears and pleas for freedom ignored by pitiless Hades, Persephone must learn to satisfy her keeper in all ways, lest she suffer the consequences. And though she cannot deny that something blooms within her, something forbidden, Persephone despairs of ever feeling the sun upon her skin once more. No matter the cost, Hades intends to keep her. Forever. * * * Captive in the Underworld is a standalone dark lesbian romance novel set in mythological ancient Greece. It is rooted in the misogyny and cruelties of the Hades/Persephone myth and contains sensitive material. Due to mature content and dark themes, this book is intended for adult readers only. It contains scenes depicting non-consensual sex, death, abuse, kidnapping, assault, and other intimate partner violence. It is not recommended for readers sensitive to such content. PRAISE FOR CAPTIVE IN THE UNDERWORLD “A dark sapphic romance based on the myth of Persephone and Hades... entertaining, captivating, and exceptionally enjoyable... I read it twice in a row without stopping… if you like my work, I bet you’ll like this a whole lot!” ―Rae D. Magdon, author of Lucky 7 “I adored this brutally ruthless Hades... She was everything I wanted her to be... frightening and passionate all at once... a beautiful example of classic dark romance... Gorgeous novel, highly recommend.” ―Roses and Thorns Book Reviews “[The] best Hades/Persephone story I've ever read… such a gripping read I literally devoured it whole in one sitting like I was Kronos eating his kids… the world and the characters are so lush and compelling I'm tempted not to finish this review and just start rereading the book instead.”―Katarina, Goodreads reviewer

The Captive Series The three original stories of insta-love with captor and captive. One captor found his captive tied up, one snatched her from her family, and the other carried her out of her bed: Luciano's Willing Captive is a dark tale of sex, romance, violence and abuse. This is a HEA story, but with a gritty center that's gut wrenching. Luciano Rossi is the head of his outfit. Amber McLaren is a fresh faced high school graduate. Luciano wants to possess her forever but others plot to separate them. Will they be able to be one or will the horrible events to come take away their forever? The Russian's Captive leaves our hero claiming the spoils of war. He believes the sister/daughter of his enemies belongs to him. Nothing will stop him from making her his own. Nikolai Rykov spent a year in America under the alias Vladimir Zarachenko; where he headed his criminal organization. Then he was betrayed and sent to prison in Russia. After the charges were dropped, he was out for revenge. All evidence pointed to the one family, he actually aided. They were in his debt, and this is how they repaid him. He would get his revenge one way or another, and the young beautiful daughter Bianca was looking like their only bargaining chip. Nikolai is rough, unapologetic and instantly in love with the enemy's own. Bianca had a secret crush. She kept her feelings about him to herself. That is, until she'd been caught by her mother. Forcing her to move on, her mother accidentally pushes her and her family into the arms of trouble. What happens when her crush becomes her captor? Sergei's Stubborn Captive finds our hero frustrated with a woman who was so stubborn, she didn't know how to quit. She had to learn, though. Claudio Santini had been wreaking havoc on all those who crossed his path. When he disappeared no one asked questions. That was until a rookie detective named Lana Grey waltzed into town looking into his whereabouts. Starting with his rivals, the Rossi and Rykov Families, she was certain they had something to do with his absence. Her superiors forced her to back off, but she only changed her tactics. Lana went after Nikolai Rykov's right hand man, Sergei Antonov. Sergei was immediately intrigued by the beautiful pain in the ass. The biggest issue he had with Miss Grey was her persistence in the search for Santini. After one too many encounters with the nosy woman, he took matters into his own hands. She became Sergei's stubborn captive. Bonus stories: Love, sex and absolute devotion. All three heroes are captivated with their brides, even when the bloom should have left the rose. Years and kids do nothing to diminish their captivation.

Ten years ago, the United States stood at the forefront of the Internet revolution. With some of the fastest speeds and lowest prices in the world for high-speed Internet access, the nation was poised to be the global leader in the new knowledge-based economy. Today that global competitive advantage has all but vanished because of a series of government decisions and resulting monopolies that have allowed dozens of countries, including Japan and South Korea, to pass us in both speed and price of broadband. This steady slide backward not only deprives consumers of vital services needed in a competitive employment and business market—it also threatens the economic future of the nation. This important book by leading telecommunications policy expert Susan Crawford explores why Americans are now paying much more but getting much less when it comes to high-speed Internet access. Using the 2011 merger between Comcast and NBC Universal as a lens, Crawford examines how we have created the biggest monopoly since the breakup of Standard Oil a century ago. In the clearest terms, this book explores how telecommunications monopolies have affected the daily lives of consumers and America's global economic standing.
