LAYLA'S BOOKS

FOR THE VIEWER'S PLEASURE

From age sixteen to twenty-one, Reesa Ghin has submitted to government examination to verify her virginity and mutation status. Those labeled mutants must participate in a month-long mating Gymkhana, for the pleasure of television viewers...or face an even worse option. After the last exam, she'll be free, perhaps to fall in love with the man she finds so appealing. After all, she's not a mutant, or at least no more so than anyone living in the Clemente Dominion. When a corrupt doctor decides to place Reesa in the Gymkhana anyway, she has to survive it the best she can, determined not to let it destroy her. But what about the man she leaves behind?

The Virgins Gambit

Chloë wants both love and passion. But she knows love is little valued in the Greoma Dominion, while pleasure in passion is considered the prerogative of men. Then her stepfather arranges to marry her to Damon, a cruel man who enjoys inflicting pain. What neither of the men knows is that Chloë refuses to play the part of a victim. What Chloë doesn’t know is that she’s caught the interest of a man with unusual abilities, a man descended from a race of shape-shifters who have been known mostly through story and myth.
The author has included two versions of the story here! One is told in third person, the other in first. Choose which version you prefer! (Amazon Smile Books) (Amazon Books)

Silverado Showdown

The widow of an abusive husband, Elena Grainger goes to court and fights to get control of her uncle's saloon. The Silverado Dominion was formed by its originators as a pseudo version of the Old West and women aren't usually put in charge of their own property, but she's proven the court-appointed guardian is corrupt. Now she must hire a man to keep order in the Dancing Keg saloon. She's clear with the man she hires that fringe benefits, such as spending time in her bed, are off the table.
But in the Silverado, a woman is at risk unless she's known as a man's property. When she narrow escapes rape from a local lout, Elena wonders if she's better off taking the best option available--the odd yet strangely likeable Wyatt Korman. Wyatt's secrets are the least of her concerns, because after her husband, the idea of having another man in her bed fills her with dread. (Amazon Smile Books) (Amazon Books)
