The Machine of Time: A Novel

(Reality Works)


Danger is Matthew Alvarez's middle name.

At 15, he’s the quintessential adrenaline junkie of Addams Hill High. A thrill-seeker, or just a stupid teenager on his way to the hospital (as his principal might say), Matt is known for pushing the limits. But when his arrogance leads to a showdown with a towering jock, things take a dark turn.

After the fight leaves his friends injured, they stumble upon a hidden room—and a time machine called The Machine of Time. Suddenly, Matt and his friends are hurled into 1987, a world completely foreign yet eerily familiar. Trapped in the past, they face bizarre side effects, encounter strange personalities, and battle a sinister force that lurks in the shadows.

With jocks, fear of erasure from existence, and looming guilt, Matt and his friends must navigate a twisted, thrilling nightmare to find their way home.

Will they rewrite their story or completely destroy it?

The Names He Calls Me

 Book Cover


The Names He Calls Me


 "To purge her, to reclaim the lifeblood she’s leeched away. . . I’d entertain the darkest of deeds."

Gwen Delroy was once the toast of the town, her words dripping with wicked wit and tantalizing taboo. Now, she’s nothing more than a suburban relic, dissecting her own mundane existence with the precision of a scalpel slicing through the cadaver of her own life. Her latest revelation? A simple formula for infidelity: husband plus sleazy interior designer equals blueprint for betrayal.

Armed with nothing more than a bottle of wine as a vessel of valor, Gwen is hell-bent on exposing the rot festering beneath the veneer of her meticulously crafted life, proving once and for all that when it comes to avenging the bonds of marriage . . . she’s more than willing to dig two graves.

The Names He Calls Me is a dark, biting narrativethat flirts dangerously with the brink of violence and eroticism. Imagine a literary concoction laced with a sharp twist, crafted by a narrator whose flaws are as captivating as they are unrepentant. It’s the kind of story that will offer you a drink, crack a joke, then make off with your heart—and your car keys—while your back is turned.

Wizardry: Part 1

  Book Cover


Wizardry: Part 1


Wizardry: Part 1: an exciting, high-fantasy adventure novel.

In a world of mighty magic, mighty weapons, mighty abilities, mighty intelligences - and the even mightier beings that possess them - the eternal struggle between the forces of good and evil tends to be decided by which force has the most… power!

Jartan - a young, fifteen-year-old human boy - has just become a paladin. But his recently acquired rank within the noble and powerful paladinhood is one of desperation, and not ability. For an evil wizard of diabolical intelligence and frightening power, along with his demonic son who can transform himself into fantastic creatures of tremendous power and destruction, are planning to unleash a great horror upon the many lands - and Jartan is the only one in a position to stop them. But the boy has nowhere near the maturity, experience, and power for such a daunting and virtually suicidal task. Only an enigmatic wizard with a twisted and troubled past has the knowledge the novice paladin desperately needs. But this sorcerer has his own agenda - and can just as easily kill Jartan, as help him.

The unlikely hero must overcome many challenges in his dangerous adventure. An abysmal swamp that is host to nefarious denizens, the village of forest elves, a library of evil knowledge, and the imposing Undead Forest are only a few of the deadly perils encountered during his travels. But these are nothing compared to what lies ahead, for Jartan finds the journey through the foreboding Underworld an absolute hell. It is an odious realm of darkness where lethal barriers, diabolical traps, and powerful creatures await those foolish enough to venture into the infernal depths. The four 'Caverns of Death' the overwhelmed and underpowered teen must pass is only one of the near impossible obstacles he faces, culminating in the lair of the great diamond dragon - and the gods made certain that nothing gets past the dragon.

PABLO, MALCOLM, THE MAN

  Book Cover


PABLO, MALCOLM, THE MAN


PABLO, MALCOLM, THE MAN, tells the tale of an elite assassin and the object of his desire, Dexter, husband of another man. The assassin is driven by pure lust and control. Dexter wants more. He wants to know the heart, soul and mind of his occasional bedmate. Whose pursuits and desires will be the death of the other? Admittedly, the story is rather racy in parts, but I did not set out to write an erotic novel. I set out to tell the tale of an accomplished assassin with a strong work ethic and a peculiar and particular set of values. But as the various characters took to the pages and interacted with one another, they begged for lurid intimacy, and I simply had to let them take me where they needed to go. So, what we have now is a rather steamy story of mostly gay (there are some exceptions) sexcapades written around a benevolent, highly principled, psychopathic killer and his posse set primarily in Tampa and Key West. The main characters are the assassin; Dexter; Jacob, Dexter’s husband; Penelope, the assassin’s ward; Wally, the technician behind the assassin’s greatest successes; Jesus, the assassin’s uber-sexy Hispanic factotum; and several other characters that make pop-up appearances, usually naked. I hope you enjoy their story.
