The Morningstar

Originally published as two novellas, Ride with the Devil and Dance with the Devil


Ride With the Devil 

When you take enough rides with the devil, pretty soon he’ll drive.

Jake Herron’s been riding with the devil his entire life. Bound to serve the Morningstar’s every whim or suffer the loss of his soul, Jake knows the latest task the devil has set for him is impossible to complete.

After all, you don’t get to choose who you love.

Kathleen Murphy, caught up in the devil’s web of intricate manipulations, puts her trust in the man who has done his best to win her heart – but when Jake is forced to make a final choice, everything the Morningstar has laid in place falls to pieces…

Or does it?


Dance with the Devil

When you dance with the devil, he picks the song.

Kathleen Murphy has sold her soul to the devil. Fame, fortune, success...everything she's ever dreamed of is hers, and all she has to do is the devil's bidding. When love comes knocking, the last thing in the world she wants to do is involve Jake in her twisted world, but the devil's started up the jukebox and Kathleen has no choice but to learn the steps.


Everything has a reason, even when we don’t understand it. Kathleen and Jake are only two pieces in the infinite puzzle of life. Sometimes, doing the wrong thing is the only right choice.
