| O-MA-GAWD. I started reading this and got a kidney stone and still wanted to read. Okay the pain kept me from it. But my mind was wrapped up in the drama. (ok in unison-"freak!") This the first story I have read by KG MacGregor and I am very impressed with the GOOD, HIGH QUALITY, SUBTLE writing and storytelling. My favorite part is the little chapter end comments. RUH ROO is right! I will check in again after I have read every story posted. I highly recommend this authors work. - nicky in durham - Aug 25th, 2003 I have been a KG MacGregor fan since the Shaken/Stirred series and I have got to say her stories just keep getting better and better!!! Getting it Right is fabulous!!! The romantic tension KG builds keeps you on the edge of your seat and the chemistry between Paula and Wynne is positively electric!!! Well worth the read and then some!!! Great job, KG!!! - Michelle - Sep 16th, 2003 I haven't read a story that kept me hooked for a long time. This one did! It's really a great piece of work with wonderful characters (If I didn't know this isn't possible, I would say I have seen the sparks fly!) and a good story. - Amastre - Feb 23rd, 2005 KG MacGregor knows how to weave a story. WOW! This one is definetly a MUST READ. The characters were really great together. Read this story now!! - yin yang - Sep 10th, 2005 |

| I just love the stories of Kim and that is even (beside "Wild") my favourite one. It is a disturbing read in parts but I really recommend it! - querdenker69 - Aug-11-2006 This was a fantastic story, very well written and I actually cried at one stage (which I never do!!) It would have been perfect if Keller and Garrison's romantic relationship had been expanded on, rather than, I felt rushed in the last two chapters...just MHO no offence to the wonderful writers of this piece which is now one of my favourites!! - Raven - Sep-03-2006 This is a VERY good, VERY sad story. I've went through such a range of emotion reading this that I can't begin to describe it. If you are in the mood for a tear jerker this is it. - Netta - Sep-07-2006 I enjoy Kim's other works, but particularly liked this one. The story is well told, and the characters are very sympathetic; they drew me in! Would highly recommend this story!! - Anonymous - Oct-25-2006 This is an amazing story! The characters are completely believable, and story was very well though out. This is one of the best I have ever read. It takes the reader through every emotion possible. Truly an amazing story! - jd - Nov-28-2006 |

| This story has it all: action, comedy, drama, a little heartache, a lot of romance, and a mystery that has me pointing fingers at a half-dozen characters. This is another great story from the talented and popular author, Anita Louise. Do not miss this one! - Kimin - Dec 10th, 2002 I am so loving this story.I am there, I feel as if I am part of the team. A marvelous story, written so well, I don't want to leave. Just when I think I have figured out whats going on, Anita throws in a curve and brings it in a whole new direction........Looking forward to the next chapters........ - Jean - Dec 12th, 2002 I'm up to date on my reading of "Fire Within" and can't wait for more! These characters have captivated me. The town, the people, the strange going ons and now the monster that is scouring the countryside. It is a breath of fresh air to read a story that actually lets the readers feel 'every step.' A story that takes the reader on many adventures. I have laughed at times. Felt my heart beat faster when things got tense and scary. I actually feel as if I am a part of this adventure. The love the women share is fantastic. Can?t wait to read more of this story. - Jill - Oct 8th, 2003 Enjoyed the story, and I am the type of person where if you don?t catch my interest in the first few paragraphs, then I am going to read something that will. Well written, I look forward to new adventures by the characters and a sequel. R. - Anonymous - Jan 30th, 2004 This story reads like a great mystery novel..with the characters intertwining within and around one another... loved it....looking forwards to a sequel. - Christi - Jan 30th, 2004 Oh, yeah, the Fire Within has so many tendrils of flames feeding marvelous characters, romance, plots, mysterious goings on and a hairy horror not born from a bad hair salon. You will cringe at times, put new wrinkles in your forehead trying to figure out the who the numerous bad guys are and get a free suntan following the characters to valleys & desert locations. The gals are gorgeous, lovable, funny and fend quite well dealing with the bad guys. Not much this story failed to weave well into it pages. Don't miss this one and encourage the bard to write a sequel. Just too characters you want to see again and follow to another adventure.How about it, Anita Louise? O Ger - Anonymous - Jan 30th, 2004 A bevy of butt-kicking, intelligent, and gorgeous women head up the cast of this exceptional mystery. Anita Louise offers another well-written adventure that will transport the reader to exotic locales, place you in the middle of danger, and face-to-face with an element of the supernatural. And just in time for Valentine's Day, Anita puts the reader in the mood for romance as she weaves tales of enduring love within this novel. Will you be able to solve the mystery before the heroines? It will be quite the challenge, even for super sleuths. - Rachel - Jan 31st, 2004 A fantastic story filled with romance, action, and mystery! One of my favorites. Don't forget to vote for Fire Within for the top 100. It definitely deserves a high spot, and so do Anita Louise's other stories. Check them out! She's such a talented writer. - Jane Bond - Feb 1st, 2004 WOW!! Great story. It holds your attention to the very end. - kb - Aug 26th, 2005 |

| In the year 1868, a time known for most Americans' fierce prejudices against all people not of the same heritage, a circumstance of pure chance brings a white woman and an Indian woman together. She is called Blue Fire; an apache warrior destined to somehow make a difference for her tribe. Everything tells her not to trust the white that has taken her in, and yet her heart gives her no other choice. Often torn between the ways of the white man and the ways of her ancestors, she struggles to satisfy both the calling of her soul and the calling of her people. A strong warrior, stubborn and proud, loyal to those she deems friends, nothing but danger to those who would dare cross her?this is her story. | |
| Romantic, thrilling, dramatic and dern good. Blue Fire is sexy and perfectly set in the past as a western thriller. I liked the characters and the pace. I liked the cowboy versus Indian flare and the Indian versus Indian issues. It's a really great read. - JLNicky - Jul 16th, 2005 This is a well written story, crossing cultures and taking us back to a different time. The references to nature, cultures, and languages are well thought out, and are incorperated smoothly into the story. I'd like to see Robyn take Alicia back to her tribe, and see things from Alicias' point of view. I truly ejoyed reading this story and hope there is a sequel ! - Kelly - Feb 6th, 2006 |
Honestly Love You by C. J. Harte

| In 1975, the feminist movement was less than ten years old and had not yet reached the multitude of women whose lives it hoped to change. Women in many towns and/or in conservative churches fulfilled the expectations to marry and raise children. They went about their day to day lives refusing to recognize the nagging voice inside of them. This story is dedicated to those courageous women who listened to their hearts, ignored the prohibitions of their families, friends, and communities, and allowed love to honestly direct their paths. And to the real C and B - this one is for you. | |
| Wow, what a beaytful and touching story! CJ Harte does it again, don't miss this story. And definitely don't miss Dreams of Bali, one of the best long story out there! - Patricia - Aug-22-2006 This SHORT story is simple and nice to read.. I wish it would have been longer to read with their house full of kids..But C.J.Harte left us with a very nice ending that will leave you with a smile on your face and a tear in your eye. I have read your other stories and I too think you are a very good writer.. - carrie - Aug-25-2006 I found this story to be excellently written, and it brought back submerged memories of hearing Olivia Newton-John singing this tune on the radio, and having one of those "aha!" moments. I realized I'd fallen in love with a friend, but knew I would never have her in that way. Beautiful story, read and recommend to your friends. - Book Cat - Aug-26-2006 |

| D has outdone herself in the writing of this tale! In this wonderful amalgam of mystery, adventure, romance, history and fantasy, D has woven a tale rich with the sights, sounds and feel of two worlds centuries and cultures apart and populated with warm and rich characters, two of which reach out across time itself for an unforgettable fairly tale ending. You will be enchanted by classic-style Uber that draws you in from the first sentence and won't let you let go until it is done! Brava! | |
| I absolutely loved this story. It's a great read for anyone who is looking for something to read on a day like this. This story is absolutely beautiful and proves that love can cross time. - Alise - Mar 7th, 2004 I would like to say just how much I enjoyed this thoroughly wonderful piece of work. It achieves just the right balance between action, adventure and drama; but above all else it is one of the most beautifully romantic tales I have ever read. - Ang - Oct 27th, 2005 I love this story. It has the appeal of destiny and timelessness that always draws me back for a reread. Try it, I'm sure you'll enjoy it as well. - Royuki - Nov-13-2006 YUST READ THIS!! - Patty - Nov-27-2006 |

| Absolutely wonderful story. I hope there is going to be a sequel! - Jennifer - May 7th, 2004 Psicology meets investigation, with action in the middle. A group of friends losing one of their one to sinking insanity over a sad twist of fate. A new comer igniting the fallen one?s awakening. New lovers lust with mixed emotions. Anger and friendship on the field. Love it! But then again I'm a sucker for stories portraying a good group of friends; besides, there?s a really hot couple. In simple adjectives: sexy (very very!), funny, deep, unexpected, great. It left me reading all night long. I?m *really* crossing my fingers to see a new story with these characters (all of them!). - Maria - Jan 11th, 2005 i'd love to read a sequel, i read it before but i lost it ,i've been looking for this story since the last time i read it last year,finally found it again.great story - Montse (spain) - Jan 15th, 2005 absolutely captivating story! Shows a close friendship between 6 people, 2 loving couples and one sizzling new relationship, all the while as a great mystery is played out. wish a sequel would be written. - blazinangelwings - Mar 8th, 2005 Sexy and funny with action and an interesting cast of characters and friends.

Gaia by romansilence

| The Amazons are not a myth and they were not destroyed; they went through the Stargate and live a seemingly low-tech life that hold a lot of surprises. Gabrielle is still the Queen and Xena her Consort. Together will they give Samantha and Janet the courage to finally own up to their feelings for each other? This tale has romance, action, and don't be surprised of the Gao'uld show up! | |
| As of yet uncomplete but a fascinating look on how to bring two series together and make it work.
You have thought up a fascinating new world, which still holds familiar values. Frankly, at first i thought the behaviour of Xena way off, but getting deeper in to the story i started to see how right it was. The people, known to us all, are true to what we know of their character.. you have brought it all together nicely.
Can't wait to see the next part. - Wit - Mar-31-2006 This was the first story by this author that I had read, and it certainly won't be the last. Romansilence has woven a tale that holds true to both the Xena and Stargate storylines, and does a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life. I look forward to the sequel. - Baerinin - Jun-21-2006 This story is finished - but it begs a sequel. A great read and a very interesting blending of the two shows. I thoroughly enjoyed it. - Georgia - Jun-22-2006 |

| This is one of the best conqueror novels i've ever had the pleasure of reading. Keeps you on the edge of your seats to the very end. MUST READ THIS STORY!!!! great diversity of characters... gabrielle was simply brilliant. is there any possibility for a sequal? if not then keep em coming! this author has to continue writing... - Snuff - Oct 25th, 2003 I know I'm not suppose to comment on myself Ow, and thank you for the nice feedback :). Edge is my personal favorite (don't tell the others, they'll get jealous ;)) so it's really nice to know other people are enjoying it as well :). - Annemaart (aka the author ;)) - Oct 28th, 2003 Very nice take on the conqueror genre, I like the ideal of a strong Gabrielle rather than a broken slave as so many do. One thing that annoyed me was you need to check it for improper word use. (piece instead of peace, rain instead of reign) - Alara - Oct 30th, 2003 If you don't normally read Conqueror stories think about changing your habits with this wonderful piece of fiction. Gabrielle is a strong and very capable resistance fighter, but her will and her heart are tested by the very charming Xena The Conqueror. Xena's not perfect by any stretch, but she sure is likeable here. I've read this a number of times now and I still love it. Anne is currently writing a sequel (Path Of Thorns) which is turning out just as good. - Sai - Sep-11-2006 love the story! glad to hear a sequel is in the works. i will be waiting and watching. - kjviking - Sep-28-2006 This is a most excellent take on the Conqueror genre. I've just read it for the second time, and I think it gets better with each re-read. - Anonymous - Dec-15-2006 |

The sex life should be welcomed and informative for many people. When can we expect more? - keylimegal@webtv.net - Feb 3rd, 2005 WOW!!!!!!!!! This story is just wonderfull I LOVE IT!!!!

Please Ambrosia...invite your muse over for dinner or something...allow your patient audience another taste of your talented mind...maybe a chapter or two or three?? - dez - Apr-04-2006 PLEASE.........MORE---NEED AN ENDING!

| Just finished reading and I really enjoyed it...hilarious! Touching, too! - L - Sep 27th, 2002 After wobbling a little with her last couple of stories, Larissa is back! "The Ice Princess" is well written, no lags or jags, just the author at her best. I loved the pez dispenser; it brought back childhood memories and a hankering for one of those solid, pure sugar treats that made me wired and able to run faster than anyone else. ;) Thanks and all that jazz to the author for an all-around good read. - Kay - Oct 3rd, 2002 Larisa has found the formula that works everytime...I love her stories! Please keep them coming!!!! - LW - Oct 5th, 2002 IMHO I believe this is one of her best. - Amanda - Mar 16th, 2003 I must say I really do enjoy Larisa's stories very much. She has the ability to draw the reader into her story and keep them riveted to the screen. That being said I have but one criticism. The main characters are usually very likable and believable, but then the two goofy friends are always thrown in and they just completely detract from the story. I can't help but find them irritating and have to roll my eyes at their antics. I mean come on they don't act at all like real people do (well at least any people I have EVER met in my life). I personally enjoy being able to relate to the characers and they are simply impossible to relate to. This is just a personal opinion, of course. I would like to see Larisa turn her considerable talents towards writing something with more depth and emotion rather than finding new outrageous situations to throw these two annoying creatures into. - Peg - Jul 12th, 2003 it doesn't need comments... READ this story !! Larisa, you're one of the best bards !! - laurence - Jul 31st, 2003 I really liked this story. The plot was awesome and the characters didn't get carried away. [wink. wink. poke. poke. nudge. nudge.]There weren't too many parts I wasn't allowed to read. Good use of words, but not too complicated to read. My favorite line was "Can I get a wheelie chair for a frozen tater tot?" PS I wish you would write more stories without the characters getting 'carried away'. - Nanaabelle's Grandson - Aug 15th, 2003 "Hey Buuuuuddy where's my candy&need the woodpecker." Larisa has a way with words that keep you involved from beginning to end, and left wanting more! - Cindy - Nov-06-2006 |

| Ten long and lonely years after Xena's demise in Jappa, Gabrielle returns to the Amazon Village, in the hope that she will be able to rejoin the Tribe, and make amends for having abandoned them after Helicon. Uncertain that she still has any right to be their Queen, she appeals to a problematic Artemis, and must undergo an Ordeal to determine her fate. The post-Twilight of the Gods is an odd time, and strange things can still happen. | |
| Wow. That's the first word that popped into my head after I read this story. It is THE best post-FIN story I have ever read. It doesn't cut corners; it doesn't spare emotion--yet it doesn't go overboard. The writing itself is fabulous, some of the smoothest and most...bard-like I've read. And the ending is so satisfying!

| Oh by the gods! This was a great great story and I am so very happy I read it. Thank you to the author. - Liana Travis - Jul 20th, 2002 I enjoyed this story immensely but then I have all of hers. The sequel All It Took Was You is even better. - Linda - Jun 24th, 2003 I can't think of any other way to describe this story except fabulous. I would highly recomend it to anyone looking for a good enthralling read. I wasn't able to stop reading it until I finished every word, and it's sequel, "All It Took Was You" did it again the next night. Excellent work Ali. - Alex P. - Oct 19th, 2003 I have just finished reading, for the third time, this thoroughly delightful and most entertaining romantic tale, "How Do You Mend A Broken Heart"...and it's just as wonderful sequel, "All It Took Was You". I equally loved both of these romantic tales. Why not? These two stories are all one and the same...the continuation of a beautifully told 'love story'; the sensational saga of 'Harry and Desi Basantes'. Did I say "Harry"? Yes, I did...but don't let the name fool you. This story(ies) are going to be a delicious surprise for you. And you can't read the first one without desiring to read more about 'Harry and Desi'...thus, your search for the sequel. And what two wonderful stories they are! The first story is so masterfully written to flow ever so easily, ever so gently, into it's sequel. Ali Vali has truly written a most enchanting 'love story'...one for the heart. There are some DV situations that were written in as part of these fictional tale(s), but you'll easily sail through these 'paragraphs' as easily and as smoothly as I did. Because this very talented author has written these two romantic tales so well and in such a manner as to overshadow anything else. And 'LOVE' is what is happening...and where it's at! I can say for sure that you'll never be disappointed in reading anything that is written by this marvelous writer. This writer can most definitely be called a 'bard's bard'! Thank you Ali Vali. - //MjM - Oct 25th, 2003 |

After meeting under .interesting. circumstances the two become friends and find their lives intertwining and the bond that develops between Christine and Willow is palpable even if it takes them a while to understand it fully.

| Here's one that has all the makings of Country-Western songs...several of them! ;-) Actually, using Blake Shelton song as somewhat of a backdrop, Larisa spins Gillian and Erins' tale of love found, love lost, and love found again in this bitter-sweet reminiscence tale with a classic ending. | |
| What a wonderful story this Bard has written, I truly enjoyed it. - Teresa - Oct 16th, 2002 This story was different than what I'm used ot form Larisa. But, it was still just as good as any she's ever written! It was very good... can't wiat for part two! - Amanda Windeler - Nov 10th, 2002 This is brilliant. Radically different to her usual style, which I have to admit, that, like a recent comment stated, I'm not really a fan of. I find the supporting "lunatic fringe" characters irritating and un-realistic, too. I realise that these are the very things that draw a lot of readers to Larisa's stories so I won't knock them, they're just not to my taste. This story however was very much to my taste. I hope there's a sequel, (it did say to be continued!). Well worth a read! - Zero - Jul 16th, 2003 Oh this one is really good. Different than her other stories but the heartwarming love is still there! - Anonymous - Jul 29th, 2005 This story has touched my heart just as much as Blake Shelton's song This Is Austin did when I first heard it. I just wish that Larisa would do a sequel to it. I know that it has a nice ending but it just seems sort of unfinished in a way. - Jesse James - Apr-21-2006 I loved this story.

This author is excellent at 'rifts.' The emotional distance S. Anne Gardner creates between the two main characters starts your heart pounding with a tension of wants, wants and more wants.

The young psychologist had recently bought a townhouse that she shared with her infant daughter, Melissa, the apple of her mother's eye, but who took up most of her time. But there was an emptiness in her life that Amanda recognized as simple loneliness. It was like a constant low-grade fever, nothing too severe, but uncomfortable enough to cause her concern. Enter Claire Easton, criminal defense lawyer with the same kind of fever. Their chance meeting is just what the other needs and the sparks will fly in this fast paced Uber with some very clever moments! Good read. | |

It is extremely well written, and the depth and richness of the characters and the world they live in is extraordinary. The authors are to be congratulated...and encouraged to publish this gem asap! - Chris - Dec-05-2006 From reading previous works by these two authors, I felt that Windstar's strengths are in writing epic tales while Zee's are in insightful observations in creating humor and depth to the characters. The combination of writing styles of Windstar and Zee create an absolutely brilliant story filled with action, anti-heroes, relationships, and redemption. I hope to read other joint endeavors by these two authors. - diss_turbed_teddy - Dec-05-2006 One of the best stories that I have had the pleasure of reading this year! I recommend this one to anybody who is looking for something fun, epic and immaginative to read. - Anonymous - Dec-07-2006 Wow. What a great story! Not for the faint of heart, but definitely one of the best stories I have read. We need a sequel or a trilogy! These characters are so rich with possible stories and adventures. Simply amazing story telling. - jd - Dec-10-2006 Whoa! Great story with a very rich background and a great plot. I read it in one night, I couldn't stop. - Golem3 - Dec-12-2006 |

For those of you who love the twist and turns in a story, this is a must read. - Anonymous - May 26th, 2003 Written by the Queen of twisted. I reread this story again for the upteenth time since S. Anne Gardner wrote it and want to tell all of you to read it. - Anonymous - May 26th, 2003 Totally absorbing. It reads like a fantastic mystery, but the horror is that in the end it is real. Kuddos to S. Anne Gardner. Number one Bard - Kittygreen - May 26th, 2003 I just had to read this story after everything I heard about it. All good.

Death of a Conqueror by Lori A. Meyers
| Xena | Alternative | Drama | Novella - 111 pages | Unfinished | Oct-06 Honors/Awards: #61 in 2006 Links: The Athenaeum | |
| I've always wondered what would motivate a person to wreck havoc on the land they were born and raised in. Or more precisely, what would have motivated a young Xena to be a conqueror. For riches? For land? For the right to rule people by fear? Would such a truly malevolent person-who rules by fear alone-last long in the job? I kept coming up with only one answer: no. I mean, don't people tend to dispose of despots early in their reigns? (Though there are always exceptions.) Caesars and Hitler's don't last long, and the malicious bitch that is usually Xena the Conqueror wouldn't make it past her second year, more or less. This is a different kind of Conqueror story. I asked myself the question: what if Xena became a conqueror for all the right reasons? Or so she thinks. I present to you Xena Akolastos, the Conqueror that lives in the real ancient world that was Greece... | |
| I Really enjoyed reading this. I hope there is an update soon - gillian - Oct-16-2006 Excellent story! Hope you continue, I am so looking forward to the next part. Just love it that Xena is not the evil conqueror this time round. Good plot - lovely character development - well written. Keep it up! - 3creeks - Oct-18-2006 excellent story and love that it's not the typical Conqueror/Gabrielle story. Great plot and hope you continue the story!!! Job well done - Anonymous - Oct-22-2006 Great story!! Very true to both characters in a completely new setting and plot. If you crave xena and gabrielle stories, read this. Only bummer is that it is unfinished. I will be watching for the next part eagerly! - kjviking - Oct-24-2006 YESSS! This is what I have been waiting for, a new Conqueror story. This one has the makings for a exciting ride. This story is not your usual, so be ready for something new. I hope the Author posts more of it soon. I can't wait for the next part. - R.C.P - Nov-03-2006 Awsome! A mew conqueror story, always love to read those. Great start with this new story and can't wait for the next part! Keep up the excellent work Lori. - alecto - Nov-25-2006 |
