GOLD MOUNTAIN
In 1865, the hope for gold has spurred many to seek their fortunes in California, the place the Chinese call Gum San or "Gold Mountain." Amidst this backdrop, Quiang, a new Chinese immigrant, works the dangerous rails hoping to save enough money to send home to his parents. In town, Leah and Clara, two enterprising women from New York, have plans of their own to grow a restaurant and laundry business. However, both plans go awry when Quiang and Leah meet one fateful day. What starts as a budding attraction soon grows into tumultuous desire despite the cultural and language barriers between them.

Initially resistant, Leah succumbs to passion following a tragic loss that leaves her vulnerable and alone. With hopes for a future that now includes Leah, Quiang embarks on a perilous path as he leaves the railroad behind for a more profitable position as a courier for The Tong, henchmen for the dangerous Triad. Quiang soon finds that navigating the secretive life of a courier brings more danger than he has ever faced on the railroad, dangers that not only threaten to tear him and Leah apart, but may cost them their lives as well.

RAINE'S BLUES
Raine Gayle runs a struggling club called Raine's Blues located on the outskirts of Los Angeles. Her world is full of the interesting characters the club shelters from the ugliness of L.A.'s mean streets. Faced with a financial crisis and desperate to keep her club open, Raine searches frantically for that one act that will draw the crowds. She believes she has found that act in the form of the beautiful and renowned chanteuse, Cintra Wells.

Cintra Wells is more than a little surprised when Raine asks the band to headline at the small blues club. Usually Cintra would reject the offer of such a low venue, but decides to take the gig for one reason - Raine. Cintra recognizes Raine immediately; after all, Raine turned Cintra down for their high school prom. Back then though, Cintra went by her - or rather, his - real name, Neil Williams. Neil doesn't hold any grudges against Raine. Though, it would be fun to play her a good turn since it's obvious Raine doesn't realize that Cintra Wells is actually a man. Namely, the smolderingly sexy manager of Cintra's jazz quartet.

Payback doesn't particularly have to be a bitch, but in this case, it won't be a lady either.

"Raines Blues is a well-written slightly nostalgic romance that reads something like a cross between Tootsie with a jazz soundtrack to follow it." A Night Owl Reviews

NEW E-BOOK - SNATCHED
Nailah Madsen is at a crossroad in her life. Having quit a lucrative banking job, she is looking for a better opportunity when fate throws a kink in her plan. Disappointed by a setback, she is not in the mood when a gang of bikers called the Demons roll through the streets where she is walking. One of the bikes nearly clips her and she responds with a foolhardy gesture that puts her in their sights. Unfortunately for her, the Demons do take prisoners and she finds herself snatched off the streets by one of the gang members.

Eric McIntyre aka Dele Larson, is new to the Demons. Unknown to the gang, he is an undercover cop looking to get info on some bodies discovered in the Mojave Desert. The police suspect that the gang is responsible for the murders as well as other criminal enterprises. When Dele is forced by the gang leader to take the attractive woman prisoner, he has to play his hand deftly. But how can he keep her safe without blowing his cover? And how can he keep his growing feelings for her in check?

"The stakes are extremely high - I mean through the roof. Just when you think they're as high as they can go, they jump up another level. This makes SNATCHED a burning page-turner, which will keep you on the edge of your seat. I couldn't read it fast enough."
Interracial Romance Book Reviews

"This was one of the most exciting books I've read in some time. The characters are fascinating. The biker atmosphere felt disgustingly real. It was very creepy at times. An overlying thread of tension permeates the entire story. The action grabs you from the start and continues until the explosive ending. I was concerned that the physical relationship between Dele and Nailah would feel fake and forced, but it doesn't. The author gives us something moving and believable. Great plot, nice writing and very engaging characters make this story a winner. I read it one sitting, I just had to know how it ended. Highly recommended!" CBLS Reviews

"Snatched is the first book in a (hopefully) long series. I am a huge fan of Sharon Cullars and did not even read the synopsis of this story because Ms. Cullars has proven herself to be an author who always writes superb erotic romances. Snatched is another successful notch in her belt; it is an excellent blend of white knuckle suspense and red hot romance. Eric is an undercover police officer deeply embedded within the Demons, a motorcycle gang with ties to drugs and other illegal activities, at every turn it looks as if his cover is almost blown but he always narrowly escapes being detected. When he has to kidnap the reluctant victim, Nailah, after having the most unconventional first meeting, things go from bad to worse at the flick of a wrist. It is now up to Eric and Nailah to come to some weary truce in order for him to take down the gang and keep them both alive. Ms. Cullars writes another fantastic erotic romance."

Thomas Durrell, his wife Margaret and their two teen children, Katie and Thomas Jr., were never heard from again. Through the years, rumors of eerie happenings have surrounded the house with claims that the house is haunted.

The amateur "ghost hunters" decide to uncover the truth behind the rumors by spending a night in the house and filming anything out of the ordinary. At the least, they expect to debunk many of the rumors. What they don't expect is that rumors are sometimes true.
