Description
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.
