Congratulations May 2010 First Place Winner! His to Possess

Title: His to Possess
Author: Su Halfwerk
Trailer Creator: Su Halfwerk



Blurb:
Stacy doesn't know that a dashing ghost is in love with her, but when she conjures him one stormy night, he charms her to her core.
After weeks of watching Stacy turn the act of book appraising into a tantalizing experience, Jeremy—once untouchable and invisible—discovers that Stacy is more than just an infatuation. She's all he wants, and she's staring right at him, not through him.
A passionate kiss seals the deal and kindles their hearts with burning passion for each other. But if given the choice, will Jeremy selfishly have her join him in the realm of the dead, or allow fate to keep Stacy alive—and thus apart from him?
When Stacy searches deeper into their connection to discover the ultimate truth about their relationship, does she find out that this is another fateful blow to her heart or a new chance at love? As former lovers and thieves in the night attempt to tear them apart, their love is put to the ultimate test.

Jett can’t believe his luck. The woman he’s admired for years is at his show, but she’s pissed. Using his warrior powers and cunning, he subdues the exec.

Author: April Ash
Trailer Creator: Marianne Stephens/April Ash



Blurb:
*A CONTEST*: In one week: Seduce a man, steal a pair of his underwear, and get him to write a detailed note about your sexual adventures together. Best entry wins.

*A PRIZE*: A one-week, all expenses paid vacation at a condo in Hawaii.

*MELISSA FOSTER*, now recovered from a bad relationship, is ready for fun, no ties, and eager to win after steering clear of men for six months. As an ex-military brat, she wants no part of military life. The other two contestants, coworkers, select a man for her.

Army Captain *JASON MOLINA*, a childhood friend and now living in the area, is Melissa's target. He had a crush on her as a teenager and never got over her dumping him (and refusing his attempts to tuba-serenade her), but wants no commitments. He too is looking for fun and no ties. He has an issue with trusting women after having dealt with a betraying ex-fiancée. And, he's a career military man.

To heighten their foreplay and sexual encounters, Melissa devises different versions of * strip poker*...but they find it very hard to finish each new game before lust prevails. Looking, touching, tasting, all take a part in their games...and so does cannoli cream!

They fall in love, but the strength and depth of that newly-found bond is soon tested. Contest? Underwear? Note? Military Life? Trust? Can they resolve their differences and the ensuing confusion over the contest revelation in time to save their relationship?
