pizap.com14858796611161
It's 3032 and mankind has conquered the stars. Strange creatures walk among us, but we are the aliens now, finding homes among the various races of other worlds.
Marc Slatterly and Matilda DuLac are members of the Galactic Mining Guild and they encounter a problem with a product in deep space. After contacting their command, they are told to expect someone to pick up the troublesome Trimagnite ore from them—a Gypsy, of sorts....
Enter the Lone Wolf – Wil VanLipsig has lived a long, and not so happy, life. Genetically altered by the Galactic Marines decades ago, he looks 25, when he's really far older. It's obvious after this first encounter, he and Marc have a history.

Taylor said nothing. She’d overreacted and she knew it.

You’ve got good instincts on the mat, kid,” Tim Stuart complimented.
As the most experienced martial artist on the team, he’d taken on the role of Sensei. He was a good, patient instructor. Jason had learned a lot in the last half hour, not the least of which was how hard Taylor Driscole could kick. He was still limping.
“Falling down is the most important point,” Tim continued. “Learn to fall, you can always get back up. Fall wrong, it’s all over.”
They practiced knocking one another down for awhile. Greg was paired with Alex Graves, leaving Jason with Taylor. It was ideal for size, but not for desire. Every time they grappled one another, Jason’s body reacted automatically. It was getting more difficult to control the manly urges.
“This time, come at her from behind,” Tim told Jason. “Grab her around the neck and pretend you have a knife. You right or left handed?”
“Ambidextrous.”
“Advantageous. Pick a hand. Taylor, be gentle.”
Jason didn’t like the look on her face as she turned her back on him and closed her eyes. He took a deep breath before running up to grab her. He held his left hand in a fist as if he held a knife. Grabbing her to him from behind, he accidentally got a handful of very tasty breast. She smelled fantastic and her hair tickled his nose as he held her close.
Taylor stiffened. She could feel Jason’s muscular body pressed close, his firm manhood just above the crest of her hips. Forcing herself to react to an attacker, she elbowed his gut and twisted the imaginary knife out of his hand. She hit him harder than she’d intended. Jason collapsed on the mat, gasping for air, eyes watering as he struggled for breath. His dry lips sipped oxygen raggedly.
“You trying to kill him, Tay-tay?” Greg asked as he gave Jason a hand up.
Jason stood slowly, doubled over, hands on his knees, as his lungs tried to find enough room to expand in his sore rib cage.
“Do you want to see Spence?” Alex asked solicitously.
Jason shook his head. Tim supported him, helping him walk to a nearby bench.
“I said disarm him, Driscole. Not kill him.”
Taylor said nothing. She’d overreacted and she knew it. The desire she felt warred with her training, causing major conflict. She tossed a clean towel at Jason, spun on her heel and headed to the dressing room in tears. Greg quickly followed her.
“Something me and the boys need to know about?” Tim asked gravely.
Jason shook his head. Alex handed him a bottle of water.
“Something’s not going on?” Tim pressed.
“We’ve got some personal—challenges—if you will.” He was embarrassed to admit his attraction. “I don’t want to get the lady in trouble, lads.”
“We’re close,” Alex said. “Tay’s like a sister. We’d never rat her out. But you’re feeling something even more personal. Am I right?”
“Oh, yeah,” Jason replied. “I’d love to say it’s just because of my incarceration, but it’s not.”
“You need a woman, friend.” Alex clapped him on the shoulder.
“Yeah, but not just any woman. That’s the problem. Until today, anyone with the right anatomy would have been great.”
“But not now,” Tim supplied.
Jason said nothing, just sipped his water.
“I wish I had some advice for you, kid. You can’t hardly tap that. It’s more than our jobs are all worth,” Alex said, staring at the door Taylor had walked through.
“Your jobs—my life,” Jason replied.

IT TAKES A THIEF TO CATCH A THIEF OR SO THEY SAY.

Accused of a horrible multiple murder, Jason Banes admits to being a thief, but hotly denies he is a murderer. In order to bring the true killer to justice, the judge is willing to allow Jason to join with an FBI task force—to dangle as bait, of course. With Jason’s help, the team must find the elusive Orchid before she strikes again. This fast paced romantic suspense will keep your heart racing from start to finish.

TAKE A LOOK AT UNDISCOVERED BY DELLANI OAKES

51iHpX7blLL
Kent Griswald is a high-powered movie executive known for his micro-managing and aggressive supervision of a movie from beginning to end. He’s not well liked professionally or personally, so when someone puts a knife in his chest, no one is terribly surprised. However, someone also took pot shots at his younger brother, Connor, who has no enemies.
An excellent murder mystery,, January 27, 2015
 
This review is from Undiscovered (Kindle Edition)
This starts by introducing Kent Griswald, a movie executive, and thoroughly nasty man. Then we meet his much nicer brother Connor and are surprised when Connor is the one who becomes a shooting victim.
However, it isn’t long before Kent is the one who ends up dead. You feel like saying ‘serves him right!’
It all becomes more interesting with the arrival of the investigating team of Detectives Walter Scott and Vanessa Weinstein and then gets a little hot with the interaction between Detective Scott and witness Cadence.
This is a real page turner – can Scott keep Cadence safe plus can he keep his mind on the case and not on her body? Who is really the killer?
This is an excellent murder mystery, well written with lots of suspense and the right amount of romantic sexual tension. Plus I love the humor throughout. Add to all that some great characters and you have a recipe for a very good book, well worthy of five stars

Another 5-Star review for “Room 103” by Dellani Oakes

room-103

“You won’t be able to put it down”  By Karen H. Vaughan
This review is from “Room 103” by Dellani Oakes
I can honestly say there has not been one book written that I haven’t liked by the author and this one is no different. Marice Houston is in town for a college reunion. A lot will happen, shots will be fired, people will be hurt or killed, and love will bloom. You can guarantee it will not be boring.
With her usual quick and witty dialogue, and amazing talent for weaving a suspenseful tale, Ms. Oakes has hit home with a bang. Through in a few twists and a steaming romance she has created a recipe of fantastic reading which will have the reader wanting seconds. I am definitely giving Room 103 5 stars for great writing and characters you will love.

Self-defense or murder? What happened in Room 103?

“Room 103” by Dellani Oakes

Back for her college reunion, Deputy Marshal Marice Houston doesn’t expect to hook up with an old boyfriend. Nor, does she expect to be a witness to a deadly assault, which was motivated by a decade-old rape case. Orson Roberts is dead, killed by the owner of the motel where she’s staying. Was it really self-defense or was it murder? Can Marice discover the truth of what happened that night in Room 103?

An excerpt from “Under the Western Sky” by Dellani Oakes

51tvttovjvl
Bobby had to admit that nothing beat a miniskirt for being erotic and evocative while still covering up the most important bits of a woman’s anatomy.
“Okay, Mom. I’ll call you when I get in. Love you too!” She hung up and smiled at Bobby. “Put your tongue back in your mouth.”
“You wear an outfit like that and don’t expect me to look? Or are you a tease?”
“You can look all you want. But you aren’t allowed to drool.”
“Can I touch?” He wanted to badly.
“Maybe.” At least she didn’t say no.
