A Lungful Of Time

My 9th full collection of poetry compiled from September 15,2013 to Aug 31, 2014.

Shortly before his 44th birthday, John Diamond received a call from the doctor who had removed a lump from his neck. Having been assured for the previous 2 years that this was a benign cyst, Diamond was told that it was, in fact, cancerous. Suddenly, this man who'd until this point been one of the world's greatest hypochondriacs, was genuinely faced with mortality. And what he saw scared the wits out of him. Out of necessity, he wrote about his feelings in his TIMES column and the response was staggering. Mailbag followed Diamond's story of life with, and without, a lump - the humiliations, the ridiculous bits, the funny bits, the tearful bits. It's compelling, profound, witty, in the mould of THE DIVING BELL & THE BUTTERFLY.

A Vampire Time Travel Romance Collection ___ Praise for More Time Kissed Moments: Cooper-Posey's writing is always brilliant. There's something fascinating and cerebral about a "Kiss Across Time" story that's more than your usual fantasy-time-travel-story. Smart characters, smart writing, smart dialog... if you're a fan of the series, you'd be smart to pick up "More Time Kissed Moments." It's a fascinating book of past and present with all its cruel, intriguing, captivating, loving, and at times humorous events. Creative and Amazing! I really love how original Tracy manages to be in a genre where everything seems to have been written. Some of my favorite parts are (1) the humor! [email protected]. Really!!!! Ha! and (2) the time travel part of the story and the explanations in regard to the loops which were astounding and told in a logical, well thought out manner. I loved reading this rich, complex and interesting tapestry of interwoven lives and loves. This is definitely a must-read book within the series and not a short story mix that you could choose to leave out of the series. GOLD! More compulsive reading for the Kiss Across Time series! Cooper-Posey is a master storyteller, but how she manages to create these elaborate interconnected storylines that flush out character development is incredible. This is like “Behind the scenes”, “The making of” and “out-takes” all wrapped in one! We get deeper glimpses into the characters, explanatory scenes and delightful vignettes of characters from this stellar series. The first opening story in this book had me laughing out loud. I haven’t read a book in this series that I don’t like. Starts out with a bang! Couldn't put it down. It's a whole lot of fun. Kept me riveted from the 1st page. It is like a colorful mosaic growing in depth and complexity with every addition. Simply marvellous!

Strange Times compiles ten short stories of fantasy, science-fiction and wonder, ranging from the darkly comical Eight Over Four, set in a world which is overpopulated with giant human-sized spiders; to the altogether more thought-provoking Outlawry, where radical new laws result in a dystopian hotbed of opportunism, for the punishment for crime is now crime itself. Also included are two previously unpublished stories exclusive to this collection: Give Us Your Smile, which describes a surreal situation where smiling becomes mandatory, and Don't Touch That Dial. Strange Times also features The Rings of Yesteryear and The Pause, two stories set in the expanded universe of the author's epic time-travelling adventure, Tomorrow Is Another Year. In times as strange as these, this is a collection not to be missed!

The battlefields run with blood in this gripping finale to the bestselling Attila trilogy. The infamous leader of the Huns stills thirsts for blood and supremacy as he crosses the Danube and prepares to attack the Western Empire and face once more his boyhood friend-turned-foe: Aetius the Roman. For Attila is set on a plan that will take him right through the entire Italian peninsular and up to the gates of Rome. He must weigh up whether he should attack this, the greatest of cities, or whether the gamble is too high, even for the most battle-hardened of warlords. In this tumultuous conclusion to the life of the warrior, we see the biggest choices of his blood-soaked career played out, and travel with him right into the silken tent where Attila must ultimately face his destiny.

New to the art recovery world, agent Gwen Davies takes on her very first “repo” assignment for Artemis, Inc.: restoring a solid gold, bejeweled Venetian mask to its rightful owner. But she’s mortified to learn that she’s stolen back a carefully engineered fake, and the disappointed client is a man she’d hoped to never see again. Quinn Lawson’s clean-cut corporate image belies his troubled, tattooed, bad-boy past. But when he’s held accountable for the missing mask, he’s forced to return to his shady ways and team up with Gwen in order to find the real one. Unfortunately the mask’s centuries-old curse is alive and well—and so is the stranger who’s prepared to kill for it. As their quest for the original mask takes Quinn and Gwen through the romantic, twisting canals of old Venice, danger forces them closer together than they ever expected to be—again.
