terry,  did i EVER actually type a review for you?
No... but you have a life, so many flowers to post, so many people to be mean to, so many trips to Scotland. Smiley  Whenever you get around to it. Smiley

Oh, I never posted an answer to your question about the condoms, either---and the answer is, Kent is a guy, what does he know? He likely based his assumption off seeing the contents of his ex's handbag. And having read the book, you know what his ex is like, so... Smiley

Okay ya gots me! Just picked it up.
Thank you very much, I hope you enjoy it.

Discovery is still only 99 cents!

My brother, in a Alaskan hospital with cancer, recently got a Kindle. He told me he got my book and enjoyed it a lot.  This is a big guy who looks like that guy who used to be on the Brawny paper towel packages, the one that looked like a lumberjack with the facial hair---not the new one. I asked him if he realized it was a romance more than a sci fi, and he said "yeah, but I liked it."

Now, I know for a fact other guys have read and enjoyed this story as much as women have, but from my he-man, sword and sorcery, outdoorsy rugged brother, that means a lot. Smiley 

He did say he wasn't going to let his 14 year old daughter read it quite yet, though. LOL.

Thanks for looking, and I hope you enjoy my story.

Discovery is still only 99 cents through New Year's!

 I've been told that some people reading it actually feel like they're in the forest with Kent and Povre, seeing it all through their eyes. That means a lot to me, especially since the year before I wrote this story I had lived in the Deschutes National Forest for four months: between February and June.  

It was right after I'd first moved to Oregon from the East Coast and was having trouble finding an apartment where I could also have my two dogs. I was basically living out of a tent (all my earthly possessions were in my truck) in quite a few locations up and down the Deschutes River. My weekly routine was simple: I'd head to town at dawn, have a quick stop at a friend's house in Bend for a shower (with the dogs in the truck, of course), go to work, and return to my outdoor home in the evenings in time to make some dinner and, with my dogs, howl along with the local coyote pack, who sounded off about the same time every night.

I loved it. The incredible light at night, the quiet, the sense of having it all to myself yet never feeling lonely. I was almost sorry to find an apartment when warmer weather came. Almost. Because with the warmer days came tons of noisy people and forest fire season...

Thanks for looking and I hope you give it a try!

So, intrepid Dr Kent Xavier faces the dilemma of climbing into a sleeping bag with a beautiful, soft as chamois female alien. A beautiful, naked female alien, who looked all too human in all the right places.

It's that or hypothermia.

No cats, aliens, Men in Black, or Oregon National Forests were harmed in the production of the eBook.

Still only 99 Cents. I forgot to put the price up, so now is a good time to get it.

(As well as remind Scarlet for that review...)

I think you should turn your thread title into a "Complete the scene" contest. Such as:


She was naked. In his tent. And there was only one sleeping bag. "And that's when I always wake up, doc. What's with this dream?"


She was naked. In his tent. And there was only one sleeping bag. She pointed at the pattern on it and said, "Seriously? My Little Pony?"


She was naked. In his tent. And there was only one sleeping bag. He glared at her. "I said I wanted to be alone, mother!"

The world of books lost a special and talented lady to cancer on January 12 of 2012. We'd like to help out the family of author L.C. Evans by donating 100% of the sales of Discovery - A Far Out Romance, to the Evans family to help defray some of the medical costs. The reason we chose Discovery was for its similarity to LC's last book, "My Planet Or Yours?" which is also an "otherworldly" romantic comedy. The links to Discovery (for Nook and Kindle) as well as other LC Evans books you might enjoy are all listed on this page. http://www.zapstone.com/evans.html
