Geographically, the ripples go out from the Forth to an infant school in Fife, on to a crematorium in Edinburgh, and then far out to the Middle East, and North and South America. Some of the stories are pure fiction, some are historical, and some more autobiographical in character. Some are simply good tales, destined to make you smile, but others will affect your view of the world and continue to ripple across your conscience. There is at least one story that is a must read for you.

In "Battles of the Beasts," we continue this tradition by weaving animal protagonists into the fabric of fantastical worlds, where they rise against their oppressors, harness their magic, and seek retribution for the wrongs inflicted upon them. The stories in this book are inspired by a wide array of creatures from mythology and folklore, from majestic dragons to wise phoenixes, from cunning werewolves to graceful unicorns. These creatures come alive with vivid personalities, magical abilities, and unyielding determination as they navigate the challenges and perils of their fantastical realms, seeking to right the wrongs done to them and their kind. Through their tales, we explore the depths of their emotions, the complexities of their worlds, and their unwavering pursuit of vengeance. "Battles of the Beasts" is not just a collection of stories about animals seeking revenge in a fantasy world; it is a reflection on the power of imagination, the importance of empathy, and the timeless human desire for justice.

It ignites our imaginations and transports us to worlds where animals are not just passive characters, but active agents shaping their destinies. As the author of these tales, I have drawn upon my love for fantasy literature, my fascination with myth and folklore, and my admiration for animals to create these stories. I have been inspired by the rich tapestry of fantasy worlds, the diversity of creatures that populate them, and the limitless possibilities of the genre. I have also been moved by the timeless themes of justice, equality, and the plight of the oppressed, which are just as relevant in the fantastical realms as they are in our world. Through these stories, I hope to transport readers to worlds where the fantastical and the natural collide, where animals are not just passive entities, but active participants in shaping their destinies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fans of Julie Garwood and Marie Force will eat up this steamy romantic suspense from USA Today bestselling author Tracy Solheim ... If there’s anything zoologist Josslyn Adams abhors more than guns, its poachers. She’s made it her life’s mission to eliminate the animal thieves from existence. But when an African “fact-finding” mission with a wildlife conservationist group results in one of their members being shot, the entire team must escape for their lives through the jungle. In order to obtain sanctuary from the local government, Josslyn calls in a favor from her older half-sister, the First Lady of the United States. After suffering a serious concussion in the line of duty, Adam Lockett, commander of the Secret Service’s elite team of snipers, is forced to work on a boring protective detail. Making matters worse, he’s assigned to guard the First Lady’s wild-child younger sister, a woman hell bent on ditching her detail every opportunity she gets. Still, Adam is determined to bide his time until he is cleared by the doctors to return to the job he’s best at, even if the tree-hugging pacifist with the smoky eyes makes his job difficult. Josslyn is back in Washington D.C. hot on the trail of a major importer of illegal animal products. The last thing she needs is a gun-toting, tower of testosterone dogging her every move. But when the poachers discover who is on to them, it’s suddenly Josslyn’s skin that needs saving. As the chase heats up, so does the passion between the two. Can these two opposites find happiness? Or is it just a shot in the dark?
