A Pocket of Pebbles: 8 romantic short stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780648531401)

This is a collection of 8 romantic short stories, all
mentioning gemstones. They were written for the Romance
Writers of Australia's annual short story contest between
2008 and 2014. Each story is a tiny pebble--less than 3000
words.
There are no connections between the stories, except
for a touch of romance.
You may find birds and vampires, cops and crashes,
married couples and young love. Some are serious, some
amusing, some crazy madness.
I hope you may find a story that suits you.
Watery Liaisons: Life-long friends, Eloise and
Daniel, have recently become lovers with accidental
consequences. Will this ruin their connection?
An Old-Fashioned Courtship: A colourful love
story with a difference.
From Disaster Comes Love: Samantha sits on the
train next to the man who's held her attention for weeks.
When the train crashes, will they lose each other?

Jake hopes for natural healing, but is it too late?

but part of the job. Will they mix business and pleasure?

promised to come back for Sapphire. Today's her eighteenth
birthday, dare she hope he keeps the promise?
