    Amber Douglas

    I'm a native Arizonan and while growing up, I would often write down notes about stories germinating in my head. I was always interested in the fantasy genre, having been introduced to Anne McCaffrey's Riders of Pern book series (may she rest in peace) in elementary school. I devoured Piers Anthony, Raymond E. Feist, and later, Lord of the Rings. In trying my hand at mysteries, I've found they are fickle things, like a knot in yarn. Instead of cutting it, try to work it out and once unraveled, have a straight line of yarn again. I will some more books coming soon, so please enjoy the ones I have out now. Reviews from readers: The Fallen Angel Review by: Gerty So on Jan. 20, 2013 : Wow, what a story.... I loved it.... Please keep writing, you are great at it..... A Highly Recommended Read..... The Fallen Angel Review by: Anonymous (Barnes and Noble) on June 27, 2013: Short and sweet...a happily ever after ending The Fallen Angel Review by Val Zykwa (Apple store) It was ok...I wish it was longer! A Pie for Papa Review by: Gerty So on Jan. 20, 2013 : Another great read......

      Chapter 1

      Owner Amy Johnson unlocked the front door to her underground sex club. It was actually a hotel she bought. Since she quietly announced her grand opening, she made quite a bit first week. Today was no different. Her young married employee, Lisa waited anxiously as Amy pulled open the door. The lobby was tastefully decorated with eclectic items, situated next to the bar. What was unique with the bar was that it served non-alcoholic drinks, catering to the under-21 crowd.

      Amy was about to open the cash register when the doorbell chimed. Amy looked up as a man entered dressed in a suit. What caught her eye were his eyes: they looked turquoise in the light. Either that or it was her imagination. He brushed back his black hair with his fingers. Amy heard Lisa gasp quietly behind her. Amy’s own breath caught in her throat.

      Hi. How may I help you?

      He reached inside his pocket and flipped out a badge. FBI. Agent Michael Creery. I have information that one of your clients-

      Customers. She interrupted him.

      He smiled and paused. -customers is an international fugitive.
