Kidnapped from her home in Cairo, Egypt, Laila is placed on an auction block in Constantinople and sold to a wealthy man and his daughter. Unhappy as a maid and leery of the lustful advances of her owner, Laila dreams of returning to her home.
Laila is sold to a Turkish harem where she must decide if she will succumb to the desires of her new owner, Kudar al Numan. When Laila is given an opportunity to return to the family she left behind, little does she know that the offer has been concocted by a vengeful foe eager to keep the couple apart. Laila must make a choice...return to the family she left behind or remain in her new life with her new love. Either choice may be seen as an act of betrayal. Will Laila return to her homeland or will she forever remain Kudar's slave girl? And does going back to relive the past mean there is no hope for the future?

Criminal justice instructor Vinnie Esposito is having a very bad day. After barely escaping serious injury in a car accident, she runs into a former adversary she suspects is stalking her. Then she learns her 60-year-old aunt has been arrested and is palling around with mobsters. Suddenly, Vinnie finds herself over her head in trouble - dirty trouble. It's an awkward situation to say the least for someone who's constantly surrounded by law-enforcement contacts - including the hunky State Trooper Marcus Richmond and FBI agent Aaron Grant.
Now, she's faced with sorting out her emotions and her family's reputation even as a mysterious series of increasingly sinister events puts her life in danger. Is it coincidence - or something more menacing?

From the moment he caught her snooping on his property, Meghan Edwards knew Nicholas Hawkinson was the man she'd been looking for, the man her sister Heather had referred to as Hawk. But would this dark, secretive stranger help her solve the mystery of her sister's death?
Nicholas Hawkinson wanted nothing to do with the city-girl photographer who asked too many questions. He'd had his share of trouble five years ago when the people of Ashton had been so quick to accuse him of murdering Heather. Both he and Meghan would be better off if they went their separate ways and never spoke of Heather again.
All of Ashton saw Nick as a dangerous man. But whether he liked it or not, he was the only one who could help Meghan now. Her sister hadn't killed herself, and both Meghan and Nick knew it. Which meant Meghan wasn't leaving Ashton until she'd unraveled this sleepy little town's secret--or died trying.

Congrats to Bec who is the winner of June's Coffee Write
S.J. Willing lives, though there are those who think this is disputable. Still, brain death aside his body continues to hammer out steamy novels of rigid male members and tough, sexy heroines. Not to mention a few quirky asides into the realms of comedic fantasy, science fiction and the unforgettable PIACT agents he has gathered around him that make living in America much safer for everyone they keep out of his sphere of influence. The fewer times he is allowed out of his straight jacket, well, you know what I mean...
Theme for this month - SF/Mystery/Romance
Main Characters - Heroine - Krystayl Clere and Hero - Stuart Hardthudder.
This series will run from July 1 to July 28, 2009
Prize - $20 amazon gift certificate. Your Author Host for this Series - S.J. Willing
