Las Vegas, NV Gloria Sanders-Williams, aka Desire4Fire, grew up in the San Francisco/Bay Area, where at a young age, her exposure to a creative cultural mix inspired her imagination and writing.

The Kyandra Saga is a five-book fantasy series with more books to follow. Does the World Need Another Hero is a short book that takes a hero's journey, and The Blood Bond Series, A Black Vampires, is a mature erotica series. All are fiction writings based on works that have unfolded after over a decade of persistence and dreams. Look for more works in progress by this author soon in fantasy. #WhyIWriteBlack “It has become the fruit of my desire to share as a writer works that intrigue through the world of imagination; I hope that I have succeeded - this is #WhyIWrite.” And why I #BleedInk. *Desire4Fire www.fantasy-author.com https://www.amazon.com/author/desire4fire twitter@702_desire4fire desire4fire23@gmail.com

Guernica, 1937 When the bombers appear like a flock of birds over the horizon, Sibil Helinger, 17, is enjoying market day in the small Spanish town of Guernica. With no warning, clouds of German planes are upon them and bombs fall on the town like rain. Reeling with shock, Sibil spends the next few days frantically searching for her relatives in the smouldering rubble. Though she finds her little sister trapped in the ruins, she discovers her mother and the others are dead. Years later, while WWII rages, Sibil and her sister are living with their father—an eminent scientist reluctantly working with the Nazis and a member of the undercover German resistance. Sibil has grown into a beautiful young woman fuelled by a dark rage. In short, she has grown into the perfect spy to join the resistance and fight back against those responsible for her mother's death. From the best-selling author of The Black Swan of Paris, Fire in the Sky is novel of bravery, danger, love and a woman's unbelievable reserves of strength.

A gorgeous, sun-soaked romance set in Southern Spain. The perfect holiday beach listen for fans of Milly Johnson and Jo Thomas. Some people are romantics. Some aren't. When Sophie and Maddie are summoned to a mysterious, top-secret meeting by their best friend Kate's partner, and told that he's planning to whisk Kate away for a surprise wedding in Gibraltar, it's immediately clear that bubbly florist Sophie is a total romantic. And that freewheeling, purple-haired Maddie is not. Soon, Maddie finds herself reluctantly organising venues, planners and ceremonies; trying not to think of her own memories of Andalucia, and those she's lost touch with there. Meanwhile Sophie's hoping this dreamy gesture might spur on her own boyfriend to similar plans...and absolutely not thinking at all about Kate's gorgeous brother-in-law-to-be. But Kate's got no idea what's going on. And as the stresses pile up and the group jet off to the sunny south, it seems it's not just Kate who might get a surprise in Spain—one that could change everything....
