No Mind of Her Own

It should’ve been simple, meet a girl at college, get a good job, maybe marry and settle down.

For Sam Ryder his path was never going to be an easy road.

Not only was the brilliant scientist tasked with finding a fix for the devastating Beta Virus but he also had to fight to save his marriage and his girl.

With almost seventy five percent of the world's male population basically rendered impotent, he would have to struggle to prevent his wife from descending into a world where happy marriages are measured not by the husband’s ability to sexually please their wives but in their willingness to be cuckolded.

Why is this happening? How can his wife turn from loving partner one minute to a depraved porn star the next?

Something that exists outside the normal boundaries of social acceptance was driving her behaviour, all he has to do is find it and stop it.

Failure will mean one of two things – feminisations or death. For Sam Ryder neither choices are acceptable.

Porter

This is the tragic tale of two souls that had been separated at birth. They had begun their lives being left by their mother to die on the steps of a millionaire's mansion. Fortunately, the owner had found them when he had gone to water his beloved roses and had heard the babies crying. He eventually managed to adopt one of the twins, the boy. His name would be Varcy. The other twin had been adopted by an American couple.

One day Varcy had seen a girl practising her yoga on the top step of the Guildhall situated next door to the Crown Courts. Varcy fell immediately in love with her and felt as if he had always known her. One day she had gone and the Guildhall had closed its doors forever. He had mourned for her and then his life had spiralled out of control into the depths of despair.

Varcy had to attend a meeting on behalf of a friend and had seen the girl seated at the bar gazing into her champagne glass. Varcy had approached her and when Porter had spoken to him his ears had been caressed with the sound of her American accent. Porter had told Varcy that she had been a Lawyer practising in the States. They had left the hall hand in hand and their ardent life together eventually began.

Porter became a very naughty passionate provocateur and Varcy her submissive but sometimes he would not always submit and Porter had loved that. They had loved life and all that it had to offer them and it had offered them a great deal.

This amazing unconditional love story now unbolts its doors for you to enter.

The Waterfall

Matthew Beamish was a 36-year-old writer of romantic stories that were widely read throughout Europe and Scandinavia. After being devastated by the wife he had worshipped and adored divorced him, he had completely lost the will to write anymore, even though his publisher was plaguing him to finish his latest novel which had almost been completed before his wife had found someone more exciting to be with and remarry.

Wrongly, he had blamed himself for his wife’s unhappiness, as the people who bought his best-selling romances wanted to see the man who wrote them in the flesh. So invariably this had meant long times overseas on book signing tours. And Jean, his beautiful wife, loved the parties and good times that being with a famous author brought. She soon got bored being alone and searched and found another rich man who would happily spend his money on her.

So Matt, as he liked to be known, had returned to his favourite spot in Norway. A site of the most stunning splendour. A waterfall that cascaded down the mountain that was situated in between a forest of trees of all descriptions, the colours of which any artist could paint a masterpiece from. It had been here that he had found the inspiration to write his stories.

Now he was hoping to get back the will to write once more. But he could not get the picture of his darling ex-wife from his mind and more and more turned to the bottle to escape from that reality.

On this trip, he was to meet Dawn who was on a computer course in Oslo, and on meeting him for the first time she was instantly smitten, although at the time he had shown no interest in her. Thus started a battle between two very beautiful women to claim this gentle giant of a man, who, unaware of his own power to love a woman more tenderly than any other man could, felt that he needed his Jean back to make his life once more complete. And he would be able to write once more. So he planned to return to England just in case she was not happy with her new husband, and try to win her back.

Then follows a battle of wits between the gentle loving Dawn and the devious grasping ex-wife, Jean, who just wanted to divorce her new husband whose business had failed and get Matt back. Good old steady Matt who once more would give her the life of luxury she wanted and had been used to. Dawn, who was determined to make Matt fall in love with her, had learned what Jean was up to and was determined to follow him back to England and claim Matt for her own.
