Aurelia has the knack of looking outside the box with her stories and each one is a jem. A lot of writers take the 'safe' road when writing but she dares to be different. great work! - Anonymous - Dec-03-2008 A MUST READ!

Set in 1860, what had started out as a casual trip to visit her father in Japan, turns into a deadly escapade for Clarissa Hughes. Kidnapped and fearing for her life, her luck changes with the appearance of a mysterious stranger, a samurai, who rescues her from her capture. Could this lone avenger turn out to be more of a danger to her than those men intent on killing her?
A well crafted and beautiful story that's a feast for the eye to imagine and the mind to see. Where has this author been hiding? - Kaye - Nov 22nd, 2005 SIMPLY ELEGANT! Perfect in it's imagery. Bold AND subtle, just like the Japanese culture. A beautiful story of love, in a period torn by political violence and enormous cultural change. An unusual joining that was perfectly balanced. Light and dark. East and West. Yin and Yang. Beautiful. (Off to read the rest of her stuff!) - Evelyn - Nov 22nd, 2005 Very well thought out story. I Love the cultural education I got while reading this. Amazing story, creating vivid images of what love and honour is truly all about. This is a keeper fer sure ! ! - Kelly - Dec 19th, 2005 What a find! Very nice. Very nice indeed. Good to read something with substance. Well done. - Leona D. - Apr-05-2006 Excellent!

Stories like this one are unique and highly enjoyable. - xenamari - Jun-01-2008 WOW!!!What a gem. Fantastic story that well deserves a 10 rating. I know it has been awhile since this was posted, but, a sequel would be much appreciated. - cygirl1 - Jun-01-2008 Outstanding story. Love the plot. I too would like to see more of this story. For instance, how did Estuko come to live in Japan and become a samuri? Also, when I first started reading this story this morning, it was rated a 10 and when I finished to go and give my rating, it had dropped to a 9.36. Strange, very strange. I gave it a 10, which it well deserves. - Anonymous - Jun-01-2008 If there is only one story you read this year, this is it. When can we expect a sequel? Etsuko still has so much to tell.

Will we ever find out what happens to these star-crossed innocents? Will Etsuko go to England or will Clarissa stay in Japan? Goddess! What a place to end! - jo - Sep-15-2008 This story was so beautiful. Please continue it. - Barb - Sep-16-2008 Such a touching story. I loved the setting. It's so unusual and yet it seemed to balance out the sweetness of the two women. Will we ever see more of these two lost souls? Very well done, Aurelia. - jane - Oct-05-2008 A beautifully crafted tale that is screaming out for more. - Anonymous - Oct-27-2008 This was so sweet I nearly cried. - jo - Nov-27-2008 A beautifully crafted tale of forbidden love that crosses alll boundaries of class, culture and propriety. The writer has effectively captured the clash of culture and turmoil that reigned in Nineteenth century Japan. Excellent job. - Anonymous - Dec-03-2008 Painfully beautiful. One of her very best. - Anonymous - Jan-20-2009 Beautiful story. Exotic location, adventure, action, and tender love scenes. I would love to see a follow up story to this. This is a 10 in my book. - Cam - Jan-22-2009 So much rich imagery and emotion packed into this short story. Your characters jumped off the page. This one begs for a sequel. - Margo - Mar-02-2009 A refreshingly original tale that really captured my imagination. I loved it!!!! I would love to see a continuation of this story. You have us believing in these characters and giving us a real need to know what happened to them. - Anonymous - Apr-18-2009 ** Spoiler Alert ** Well, they certainly fell in love quickly...

I give it a 10! - jac - Aug-27-2009 Simply stunning! - gaz - Sep-08-2009 Great writing! Fast-paced and riveting story. A must read, love it! - Luie - Oct-09-2009 I haven't read this story in a while, so took the time to re-read it. No wonder I remember it fondly. It's a real gem of a story with a most unusual setting. Read it!! - Anonymous - May-20-2010 This is an amazing story full of contradictions! A innocent love story set in a land in complete turmoil. Where East meets West in explosive intensity and yet somehow love blossoms in the midst of it all. I love the choice of setting and time, when Victorian sensibilities clash with Japanese feudalism. If you're looking for something a little different, this is it. Don't miss it! - denniek - May-23-2010 This is such a great premise. The time, the culture and the sense of ultimate honor. Wow!! A delightful story that you should read. - kathb - Jun-07-2010 I've read this story because in a few days I'll be in Japan on holidays. Now I'll be daydreaming about a samurai appearing around the corner!!. Well, I'll be with my partner, so Already have my own samurai Seriously, quite good story - Rouge - Jul-12-2010 What a wonderful story.I like the way it's written and how easily it draws you into the characters lives. It is a good journey. - uber goober - Aug-08-2010 A very well done story. A great job writing it - sassy123 - Sep-15-2010 A breathtaking story. If you don't read this then you're missing out on something special. - marciev - Apr-27-2011 pity this story wasn't written in first person.. kinda liked being in j's head.. nice series.. - Anonymous - May-18-2011 A central theme in all of the alt Xena/Gabrielle ubers is that they are soulmates who, in each incarnation, feel instantaneously, inexplicably drawn to each other, compelled by a force that is profound and extraordinary. This story makes excellent use of this theme to craft tightly woven tale that would make an excellent foundation for a series. Hope the author decides to expand on this little gem. - XenaLives - Sep-18-2011 Very well written story. The pacing and phrasing are perfect for the period and location. Romantic and fast paced, it's definitely worth a read:-) - Lyn B - Sep-27-2011

A sequel to "Gladiator", shipwrecked on a remote island, Xena and Gabrielle try to come to terms with their new relationship, and the inquisitive nature of active nine year-old. Is this idyllic setting as perfect as it seems, or is it the home of something more sinister?
A surprisingly good twist on how Xena came by the Chakram - kelley22 - Aug-04-2008 A refreshing insight into the legend - Wax - Aug-18-2008 It's nice to see 'what ifs' for Xena. How would her character survive if her circumstances changed? And I'm talking besides Conqueror. I love the both Xena and the Conqueror but I LOVE the character even more. She has so many limitless possibilities because she is so complex and fallible. Well done! - Anonymous - Sep-15-2008 I am highly impressed with Aurelia's talents and abilities to tale a great tale. I thouroughly enjoyed this story, and so far all of her other tales that I have read.

I loved the main character in this, I'm so grateful the author was able to continue this series to it's conclusion. Although we didn't get any closure on Bessie... :(. I think the true love story here was Jordana/Bessie :D - Anonymous - May-19-2010 The title says it all!! A wonderful series that ended with a bang! I hope that the author will one day continue the story as I'd like to know how Jordana handled the change in lifestyle. If you haven't read this yet, now that it's finished you have no excuses!!!!!!!! 10 out of 10 - majic - May-20-2010 Seeing the series being concluded I had to reread all of the other books first. Thank you Aurelia for this great ride. It is wonderful that it will published as a novel. - rleef - May-20-2010 I have to say that I had a few misgivings when I saw the title of this series, but it turns out I was totally wrong. Fantastic plots, very well developed variety of characters with realistic interplay among them, and just a plain good story. Any chance of a 6th book?? - celts - May-21-2010 Now that the series is finished, the ending has been worth the wait. It has been a story of opposites - humor and drama, angst and joy, life and death. I certainly hope this isn't the end for J and her ladies. A job well done! If you haven't read any of the books yet, I suggest that you begin at the beginning because, believe me, you don't want to miss one single word of it. - clarejessie - May-23-2010 This is just sooooo good!!!!!

I can't wait for more in the series! - Anonymous - Sep-03-2008 This is a breath of fresh air. I find that science fiction, by its very nature, is 'de-humanizing', so to find a sci-fi story that manages to hold onto its 'humanity'is exciting. It's well worth a read even for those who don't particularly like science fiction. So GO READ IT!!!! - sheaz - Sep-08-2008 It's like the old-time RKO serials where you can't wait for the next installment. It will be soon, right? - Anonymous - Sep-23-2008 What a great story!

I would recommend to any one. Well done bard, well done! - Anonymous - Feb-25-2010 I found this one started off a little slow,but it definitely picked up speed and my interest as it went along.

Book 2 picks up where Book 1 finishes. Jordana's life becomes decidedly more complicated when she suddenly finds herself caretaker for one hundred celibate women. As far as she is concerned, she has jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire. Now all she wants to do is to find somewhere to drop them off before she returns to her life of debauchery. She should be careful what she wishes for...
Another great installment, but we've got a ways to go before the end. Good stuff. - Arassar - Mar-16-2009 This story is becoming more and more intriguing by the minute. I love it!!! - jo - Mar-17-2009 Sensational! Jordana is such an amazing character and I just love it when those women put her through hell.

These ladies just miss understanding each other by millimeters, but it seems like miles. Through it all is a growing respect for one another. I'm just loving it. Wonderful texture in the story telling. - wasabigrrl - Sep-11-2009 Aurelia, you have caused me many a sleepless night, but this one has kept me up all night! While I'm not found of science fiction, I love the fact that despite being set in outer space, it doesn't have the feel of science fiction. It's more a rollercoaster ride of an adventure wrapped up in space dust. I highly recommend this one to everybody. - jaq - May-20-2010 Wow!

Well worth a read. - jaqi - Oct-07-2009 This is one of those tales that goes bump in the night. A story where one is tempted to look over one's shoulder at the sound of every scrape and shudder. I've never taken the opportunity to thank this author for her diversified range of stories. She has a way, in a few well chosen words, of putting the reader into any world she wishes to make. Thank you, Aurelia. - xenastarved - Nov-29-2009 A good story but it felt like it was just the beginning to what should be a longer tale. Still it was worth taking the time to read. - uber goober - Aug-28-2010 A nice story. I think it would have been better if it had been longer. There a little bit of everything in it; grief, drama, tension and the hint of romance and new beginnings. Worth a read. - Lyn B - May-09-2011

The seventh story in the Priory/Dylan Ghost stories series. This tale is a prequel to the series, telling the story of how Dylan met Rhea. It was a time of great turmoil in 1935. The Great Depression had just ended and the ramifications of it were still being felt. Jobs were hard to get, for women even more so. One woman was so desperate for a job that she would become a man to get it. Little did she know what it would cost her to win it.
I thoroughly enjoyed this. Aurelia sets the mood so well I swore I could feel myself in the story. Even if it wasn't a Priory/Dylan story, it stands very well on its own. Another 10 out of 10 on this one. - beckieT - Jul-31-2010 Another terrific story from a great bard. Lots of atmosphere, lots of intrigue and lots of humor that is so much Dylan. Please continue this series. - Anonymous - Aug-01-2010 Considering we all knew how this was going to end even before reading the first line, it's a very touching story about how circumstances push two people together to a conclusion that was already written. A wonderful story by an equally wonderful storyteller. Bravo! - jaq - Aug-07-2010 There doesn't seem to be any time period or situation that this bard can't write about. Each and every one is believable and highly entertaining. I love this one because it belongs to my favourite series. Let's hope we see more of Dylan and Priory soon. Thank you. - Anonymous - Aug-13-2010 Excellent story. - Anonymous - Aug-21-2010 A must read, as is the rest of the series. Whilst this particular story has a lot of angst, the series is a joy to read. Guaranteed to make you laugh. - cassie - Sep-01-2010 Once again Aurelia writes an entertaining tale that draws you in and leaves you thinking about it when your done. That was a great story. I liked the choice of the different endings that allows the reader to decided how they want it to end. - uber goober - Sep-07-2010 i don't like prequels in general.. since you know before reading how it's going to end.. so the alternative ending was a bit of a surprise in this one.. the downside is that it makes the rest of the series less believable.. nevertheless, i enjoyed the series very much.. especially the humor of it had me hooked.. - Anonymous - May-15-2011

Corporate executive Priory McAllister had finally bought her dream house, or so she thought. A turn-of-the-century manor house, it had stood unoccupied for many years after passing through a succession of owners. Assisted by her under-appreciated secretary, Jacey Ryder, Priory moves in amid creaking boards, squealing pipes and Halloween preparations. Was the place haunted or just a feeble trick of her imagination?

[Removed at Authors Request] Morgan O'Callaghan thought she knew what she wanted in life. Being a New York City detective had been a family tradition that she had willingly supported and, as 'Mickey's Girl's, she had been exceedingly good at. Andrea Worthington had moved from her native Charleston to New York City to take up the position of Assistant District Attorney, much to the derision of her family. Their first meeting was like two freight trains crashing head on. Now a high profile murder case has thrown them together and they must find common ground if they are to work together. [Removed at Authors Request]
Okay, I'm with you on this. It's becoming quite interesting. I never know what you will come up with! Always something new....and great! - cj - Aug-30-2007 great story so far! looking forward to the updates. - Anonymous - Sep-03-2007 I highly recommend this story even though it's not finished yet. Not only is it a riveting police drama the personal angle concerning the two women is full of angst. Aurelia has the talent to get inside her characters' heads and create a finely woven tale of forbidden love. - fj - Sep-18-2007 Yay, it's done! Now you can READ IT! - Arassar - Oct-29-2007 Great story with characters you really want to cheer for! - Pammmy - Nov-30-2007 What happened to this story? I had read it a while ago and found it to be a great mystery. Damn, and I was looking forward to reading it again. - Anonymous - Jan-19-2009 Excellent. Believable. Well written. Great plot. Interesting characters. How this writer continously comes up with all these completely different storylines WITHOUT writing one single stinker is beyond me. Good show, Aurelia! You are a woman of beautiful talent. - Casey - Jan-20-2009 I had read this story quite a while back. I had finally gotten round to read the book version of this story and was amazed. Both versions are well worth a 10. - Anonymous - May-23-2010 I was so excited to hear that this story won the 2010 Golden Crown Literary Award for best Mystery story.

Now three years on the tale has reached its end. The wait was well worth it. It's a grand tale that has crossed many boundaries to show us that love can truly conquer all. - Anonymous - Sep-08-2008 I was heartbroken to read that this series has ended. Any chance of throwing us a crumb or two in a short story or two about Dale and Francoise? Maybe a Christmas or Valentine's vignette?? Plleaasseee???? - daletoo - Oct-07-2008 It was a shame the author finished the series where she did. There were so many questions that could have been answered and limitless opportunities to explore. Maybe some encouragement would help Aurelia to write another tale with these two heroines. let's hope so. - Anonymous - Feb-13-2009 This shouldn't be the last story, another sequel please ? - Josje - Jul-20-2010 Read the series cause I wanted to know if buying "Possessing Morgan" would be worth it. I'll be buying the book now. Fantastic author. Excellent series, highly recommend. I wish for a another sequel. - Anonymous - Jul-28-2010 That was an incredible series. I think it would be wonderful if Aurelia would do a new series with them in America. It was soooo good I really hate that it had to come to an end.

Dale Wincott likes restoring old furniture. In fact, one could say she has a passion for it, spending many long hours scouring the flea markets and second hand furniture shops in search of long-forgotten treasures. During one such search, she finds an old battered mirror and falls in love with it immediately. Little did Dale know what effect such a discovery would have on her life. Are the secret whisperings at night coming from the mirror, or is it all in her lonely, frustrated mind?

This is the sequel and continuing adventure of Reflected Passion. One day Dale Wincott took a little unexpected trip.... through the looking glass. A mirror provides the means for reflection BUT sometimes reflections are returned in the direction from which they came. What was twice reflected besides a passion powerful enough to encompass more than two centuries. And what are the reflections in the mirror now?
Dang. I thought the first one was steamy. But this one....wooo weee! Totally erotic. Okay, getting mind out of gutter...the sequel....damned good one! Excellent job! I did NOT see that coming! It is certainly turning into quite the adventure. Well written, hot, interesting concept, and entertaining as all hell. I love surprises and this one delivers! Number three is due out....when???? - Sharon D. - Apr-05-2006 SWP??? Doesn't that mean Sex With Plot??? I don't think so. Hmmm, let's try a Great Plot with Great Sex. GPGS!There's some scenes in there that are just priceless. What a grasp of the characters and the real human element. Strangely believable, if that's possible. Great job. - SueB - Apr-05-2006 When I saw there was a sequel out I just had to go back and reread this first one. You know, this is a great little story. Vivid, funny, beautifully flawed characters. Real passion. And surprises. Wonderful story. Wonderful sequel. Looking forward to more of this adventure...thru the looking glass. - angelia v. - Apr-05-2006 Woman, you can certainly spin a story. Well, the first was a great fantasy story with a very interesting concept. This one had more...meat...to it. I caught myself believing it. LOL Okay, I'm hooked. Where is the third part going to take us? Really looking forward to it. - Leona D. - Apr-14-2006 I love that this is billed as "Part 2", implying there are more parts to come... YIPPEE! It takes considerable talent to have people believing in make-believe, and Aurelia has the pen, wit, insight, and general wordsmithing ability to do just that! I happily add my name to the list of believers. Thanks for another engaging read! - Therese - Apr-26-2006 What an awesome concept.

With part two, my beloved classical music was playing in the background while I eagerly read the lines. It was glorious ! Total perfection - the music increased the intensity of the story, and my god, I was instantly transported there myself. I was deeply affected when the Passacaglia from Suite 7 in G Minor by George Frideric Handel (Conducted by Vladimir A. Rylov) filled the air. The love and passion between these two women was living and palpable and completely enveloped me. Now that is what I call feeling a story !! And now on to part 3 I go.

A sequel to 'The Most Dangerous Game of All,' the story picks up a couple of months later as Xena's march across Greece is halted when she has the urge to visit Amphipolis. She expects a frosty reception from her mother but to her surprise Gabrielle is there also. That could mean only one thing - Trouble.
I certainly hope part 2 is not the final part of this series. I hope to read more of this Conqueror and her occasional visitor. - Anonymous - Feb-21-2009 It's good to see Aurelia writing a Xena story again. As usual she delivers a fine story with all the hallmarks of the two characters we all love. Of course, no Aurelia story is complete without a twist or two in the plot, which only makes this tale more engaging. I hope this isn't the last we see of this series. YOU MUST READ IT!!!!! - jo - Feb-21-2009 this can't be the end of it. it's not right? pleeeeeease tell me that it's not! :\| - Anonymous - Feb-22-2009 Great story - Anonymous - Feb-24-2009 Very well done story. I have been looking for some fan fic with a more interesting alternative storyline and this definately satifies. It's one of the best conqueror-esque storylines out there that depict Gabrielle in such a rugged role. - Jenna - Mar-01-2009 A story with all the hallmarks of a Xena episode - fights, intrigue, maintext and suspense. I thoroughly recommend it - Anonymous - Mar-06-2009 An exciting tale that manages to find another angle on the Xena legend. Just when we thought there was nothing more that could be explored.... An excellent story that I hope will continue soon. - Anonymous - Mar-07-2009 A well thought out adventure at a time in Xena's life that is little explored. With lots of suspense and plenty of fighting, it's a tribute to one of the most enduring fictional female characters of our generation. A good read. - Anonymous - Mar-31-2009 A very clever story. Do yourself a favor and read this! - Anonymous - Apr-15-2009 Great Xena story with good intrigue and imagery. I could see the action as it was written. A MUST READ. - xenafan - Aug-01-2009 Great story series. Read the first one so you won't be lost. Very interesting take on the characters - just before becoming the Conqueror. I hope we will see more of these characters - definitely does not feel "finished". - Georgia - Sep-10-2009 I loved these conqueror tales but I agree that it seems unfinished. There needs to be another tale to wrap up X&G's relationship. I've read all of Aurelia's works on this page, with the exception of Possessing Morgan which had unfortunely been removed at the author request, and I have been thouroughly impressed with her skill and talent at being able to craft rich and entertaining stories that are capable of drawing you into the characters world. I highly recommend reading all of this authors works and would like to say thank you to Aurelia for sharing her talent and vision with all of us. - uber goober - Sep-24-2010 "The Undaunted Heart" is certainly not the finish. I had intended to write another tale. I have a story idea but it's a matter of finding the time to write it. I will endeavour to to continue this, and the Priory/Jacey stories, soon. - Aurelia - Sep-24-2010 What a great story. Job well done. - sassy123 - Nov-12-2010

Aurelia manages to capture the beautiful, heartwarming and soul infused essence that is the relationship between Xena and Gabrielle.

It's a walk down memory lane full of sisterly love and home-grown catastrophes. Long may Priory and Dylan reign!!! Excellent work. - jamie - Oct-28-2008 Another great story in a great series. Thanks.
