About Vastly Underrated: Life Begins At Fifty (Midlife Secrets Series stand-alone reads):

As a dedicated counsellor, Debra never fails to accomplish everything on her to-do list. Except for this one time when she chooses to meet her sister’s needs ahead of work demands, and the results are catastrophic.

A thrilling romance makes her feel young and alive again, as does the joy of discovering a fast track to her dream career. But an unexpected phone call from home forces her into a premature decision. And before long, that fleeting sense of freedom she fell in love with on her travels starts to feel like a distant memory.

Will Debra return to the safety of her comfort zone and the life she once knew? Or can she defy the odds at fifty years old and redesign her future to fulfil her ambition and be the master of her own destiny?

Nothing else happened as everybody claims not to know about the agreement. Mark and his ex-wife, Merle, are now in reconciliation talks. Merle calls all of his women including, Leta and Rhea. Leta tells her thar she is happily married to her husband and had no interest in Mark. Rhea tells her that she is no longer seeing Mark as he has no money.

Leta says that she doesn’t believe him as he was out with either Lovett or Gail. When she confronts both women they deny being the mystery woman. Leta reminded them that the way she had disgraced them, they had no shame to be showing their faces around again. Lovett said that she had nothing to be ashamed about as all she did was to leave her husband and had a child for a married man. Leta asked her if she didn’t realize that she had committed adultery. Lovett laughed and said it was happening all over the world. Gail said that Leta didn’t disgrace her as all she did was to have a child for David. Leta said that all they did was drive around in their cars as neither of them worked. Both women affirmed that they worked. Leta countered that she was glad they had found new boyfriends as all they had been doing was to milk as much money as they could out of David. She said that the cars they had, belonged to David. David confirmed that they had paid him back for the cars, but Leta scoffed at it. Both women claimed that they know who the mystery woman was but they are not going to tell Leta. Leta said she will find out who that woman is and disgrace her. She still feels that one or both of them is the mystery woman and they are just using the men they claim to be seeing as a face card. Meanwhile Merle has hired her sister to evict Hazel from Mark’s house.

El volumen concluye con Xinef, el eterno, cuento que alude al proceso creativo y a la fuerza de la imaginación.

A Viking’s Home

About A Viking’s Home:

Norsemen crossing the sea for treasure and adventure is not a new concept by any means, but by God, I was so swept away as I wrote this story. The characters came alive as what started off as an easy conquest after another quickly started unravelling around them. Their struggle to hold on to what they gained became ever more gruelling until it seemed all was lost. But by the gods, one must never give up on their dreams, even when destruction is the only foreseeable future.

About Lucifer’s Cage:

What at first seems to be a mismatched assortment of tales comes together to explore this idea of freedom. Where the story is going is anyone’s guess, but it narrows its focus in the second half of the book. It questions our understanding of freedom while running through warzones, explotation, heartbreak and other such circumstances that torture the fragile human heart.
