The Onyx Sun
I'm a historical romance author, but occasionally I like to dabble in other time periods and settings.
I wrote The Onyx Sun, a 3000 word sci-fi romance for a writing competition.
When the terran space freighter Onyx Sun has a catastrophic engine explosion, communications specialist Alexandra Lovell and engineering chief Pete Conrad battle massive system failures as well as their own unresolved personal feelings.
With three hours to go before their decaying orbit goes terminal, can Alex and Pete repair the communication arrays as well as their relationship?

Can Ann bid goodbye to the past and love again?
In this short story, told from the viewpoint of Ann Sellars and in letters from Toby, Elizabeth Ellen Carter reveals what happened to Toby Jackson after the conclusion of Moonstone Obsession. and, in flashback, the events that led Toby to leave Pennsylvania for England.
