Summary: When Poppy picks up a woman on the run, her life changes forever. Vanya, sex trafficking victim now escaped, finds refuge and friendship with Poppy. Their friendship blooms on the little farmstead, with the animals and the quilting projects. Theirs is a quiet life, a temporary situation turning into something more permanent, as Vanya finds the space to heal. Her protective, intense feelings are just friendship...right? Poppy has never been interested in men, and she didn't think she was interested in women, either. Perfectly content to live her life without romantic relationships, it's a surprise to her to find feelings bubbling up for Vanya. Vanya grew up in a culture where lesbianism was unimaginable, unacceptable. She always assumed she'd find a husband she could stand, but lately, all she wants is to be close to Poppy. But if these feelings she's getting for Poppy are what people mean when they talk about falling in love...maybe she's not as straight as she thought. Is their friendship turning into something more? Can Poppy and Vanya find a happy ending? Genre: asexual, lesbian Heat level: sweet 26,000 words

Summary: Being a nobody isn’t Duncan Alexander’s life goal, but it’s worked for him. He has a nondescript job, a few good friends, and overall he’s content. That’s until one fateful trip to San Jose, California, where he is “Called” to meet the mysterious Juliet de Exter. Juliet is a beautiful, wealthy, powerful Immortal who is undertaking The Calling—a search for a human to join her world of Immortals. Inexplicably, Duncan’s calling is more dangerous than any of the Immortals, even Juliet, ever thought it would be. There is more to this nobody, this only child of long-deceased parents, than anyone thought. When Duncan experiences uncontrollable dreams of people he doesn’t know and places he hasn’t been, Juliet and the other Immortals worry. Soon, his visions point to a coven of long-dead witches. The dreams also lead Duncan to his one true love. How will Duncan navigate a forbidden romance with an outcast Immortal? How will he and the others keep the balance between the Light and Dark, survive vicious attacks, and keep the humans from learning who they truly are? More importantly, who is this implacable foe Duncan keeps seeing in his dreams?
