The Origin of Deanna Dorak

Lesbian Sci-Fi Mystery ebook

Is she merely a freak of nature...or is she from another world?

Deanna Dorak suddenly finds herself alone in the world, and begins to realize that it may not even be her world. With confusing images forcing their way into her consciousness, she struggles to understand who she is and why she's here. She elicits the help of her best friend and former lover, Kate, who believes that all of Deanna's problems stem from her inability to accept her mother's death. That is until she sees the gills that have begun to form on Deanna's sides. Kate brings Deanna to Dr. Jason Alexander who vows to help her and protect her from government scientists.

Soon after, Kate's body is pulled from the river—someone broke her neck.

A frantic search for answers takes Deanna on the quest of her life. Is she the reason her friend was killed? Is Jason friend or foe...is he holding her captive for his own scientific research? Is she really from another planet, an underwater world inhabited only by women? Can she trust the detective assigned to solve Kate's murder? Can she trust her own self?

Aneesha's Prophecy

Lesbian Sci-Fi ebook, Sequel to The Origin of Deanna Dorak
2006 POW Award Winner, 1st Place Science Fiction

The daughter will return and avenge the death of her mother
and those innocents killed here today.

Dorak Deanna has come home to claim her birthright. Home, to a planet she remembers only through the implanted memories of her mother, Miktra. Home to a planet still occupied by the same Empyrean forces that forced her departure nearly thirty years ago.

The Day of Ascension is fast approaching and the Empyrean Governor of Nedamla grows more fearful of Aneesha’s Prophecy with each passing day. Especially since each day seems to bring another unexplained, violent death of at least one of this soldiers. Yet the Empyror refuses his requests for more troops, assuring him that since Aneesha’s child was killed during the invasion, there is no heir to ascend to the throne.

By accident Deanna discovers she has the ability to communicate, with at least one Nedamlan, by using only her thoughts. Is it possible that there are others among her people with this ability? Perhaps it will be the secret weapon she needs.

Even with the ability to mind-talk, how can one woman turn a population of women, known for their pacifism, into warriors? And if she and her warriors take Nedamla from the troops now occupying her, how will they maintain their freedom? The Empyror has more than enough troops to simply send another invasion force.

As if fighting the Empyre weren’t enough to worry about, Deanna has another problem–she has fallen in love.

Will Deanna fulfill Aneesha’s Prophecy? Can she return her people to a time when they were fierce warriors, asking no quarter and giving none? Will Jorsta agree to join with her?

Life is Full of Surprises

Lesbian Romantic Mystery ebook
2005 POW Award Winner, 2nd Place Romance

Judy and Barbara have both sworn off falling in love–that is, until they meet each other. The two women become so involved with one another they are totally unaware of how their budding relationship is affecting those around them.

Carol, who recently left Judy for another woman, decides she wants Judy back. Judy declines Carol’s offer for an encore.

Gerald, Barbara’s assistant, thinks that Judy might be after Barbara’s business. But he can’t tell Barbara his suspicions without tipping his own hand.

Martha, the woman who really is after Barbara’s business, decides that bugging Judy’s apartment is the route to finding out what she needs to know about the whole situation.

Everything is moving along nicely until Carol is murdered. An anonymous tip leads the police to the murder weapon in Barbara’s freezer.

Did Barbara kill Carol? Did Judy kill Carol and frame Barbara? Who has the most to gain from Carol’s death? Or should the question be: Who has the most to gain from Barbara’s conviction for murder?
