WITCH'S PAWN -PRE-ORDER!
When head writer for a popular soap opera, Charity Jordan, hits upon a gothic storyline, it leads her and the crew to Bender's Crook, Massachusetts-her hometown. The problem is, the crumbling Manor House is situated on the very hill where her sister fell to her death ten years before.
When a series of strange events plagues the trip, Charity begins to investigate. She soon discovers the portrait of Estelle dela Bordeaux, a purported witch, who bears an uncanny resemblance to her. What's more, as Charity delves deeper into the mysterious woman's life, she begins remember bits and pieces of a life long ago a life the witch lived!
When the descendants of those who put Estelle to death begin to die, one by one, the finger of suspicion points to Charity. Police Chief George Kearny is only too willing to believe Charity is guilty, as he holds her responsible for the death of her sister years ago. But is the killer Charity gone mad or another, more devious force at work. A force that is using Charity as her witch s pawn to put in motion a sinister plan of revenge, divined over 200 years ago?

Below is an excerpt from a great new e-book, SECRETS OF THE DEAD by Sheila Stewart:
Secrets of the Dead
by Shiela Stewart
Jessica Coltrane is a die-hard skeptic who believes that ghosts and paranormal activity are nothing more than a figment of some poor fool’s over active imagination
—until she finds herself locked inside a house with the enigmatic paranormal investigator C.J. Dowling, that is.C.J., born with the ability to see and speak to the dead, thought this would be a job like many others. Calm and self-assured, he knows his business.
After all, he’s been listening to the Secrets of the Dead since he was three. He’s prepared for anything
—except the smart and sexy Jessica.Working together in close quarters, C.J. and Jessica find it’s all too easy to get under one another’s skin during the day. As darkness falls and the tension between them mounts, a spark is ignited. Fueled by passion they give into their desires…only C.J. and Jessica aren’t alone.
As the light dawns the couple discovers they’re trapped. Trapped with the ghost of a child long forgotten, an amorous entity that is threatening Jessica, and a powder keg of a spine-tingling mystery that might just be better left buried.

Updates on other manuscripts:
ONYX 2097 - Currently under consideration at Lobster Press and Samhain.

Rejections on those will mean rewrite, rewrite, rewrite! I come close but no cigar :.)
