It Was Always You
When the one you hate is the one you love, things can get a little complicated. Love and Hate are often opposite sides of the same coin and sometimes, it can be hard to find your way to love. We all have a tendency to ignore our feelings until someone walks into our lives and makes us crazy. What happens when the person you think you don’t want anything to do with, is the very person you want to spend the rest of your life with? Each story in this anthology will remind you: things are never what they seem and love can be found in the darnedest places. Thrill of the Heart is a series of stories set in an anthology playing with different romance tropes in the vein of Hallmark Romance. So, if you love a Happily Ever After, this story is for you.
The Prometheus Saga
We are not alone. The Prometheus Probe is a human by design and sent by an advanced alien civilization. Prometheus's mission is to report on the development of intelligent life on Earth. It looks human. It walks among us, watches us, and learns from us, without exposing its secret. Through the ages, Prometheus's artificial eyes have observed humanity at its best and its worst. It has seen us rise to challenges and fall into hubris, risk all for the sake of others, and commit unspeakable atrocities. The Probe observes the human condition and reports its findings to its creator. And sometimes, it acts. THE PROMETHEUS SAGA is an anthology, thirteen speculative stories that explore what it means to be human.
