However, in time, the child and the little goat form a bond with the other, unleashing their creative talents and producing a deeper connection with their world.

"An emotional story of a life of illness and creativity." - Kirkus Reviews
After one heck of a first date with an ill artist, Susan was all in for a wild race against the clock.
She knew what she was getting into...sort of. Charlie was frailer than she realized and only twenty-seven. But it was clear from day one that he was in search of his own brand of perfection. She'd watch his work magically evolve while his body slipped away. She'd summon unfettered wiliness, hope, and forgiveness, while still managing to find raw, wicked humor in almost every dark corner. Decades later, over a million images were shot in the field, thousands were carefully cataloged, and hundreds were printed by the artist before he died. Art won. Love won. Illness lost.
The Swing by Susan Dennis opens in the dangerous days of Detroit's 1980s gang wars, and spans the twenty-four-year marriage of a muse and a photographer - a man with an inexplicable illness, and an equally inexplicable lifelong passion for mastering the union of nature with a lens.

The Wolf’s Fire is a steamy, fast-paced fantasy romance tangled with mystery and suspense in the world of fae and werewolves. Seraphina is a fae princess forced to live in an uncomfortable arrangement with the elusive Drake Rune whom she knows very little about. She calls him “Wolf” rather than his name, because he seems like the big bad wolf incarnate. She is prepared to do whatever she can to avoid him, including making herself into a child and running away from his grand estate to try to be free.
Unfortunately for Sera, she is tasked by the Council of Creation to carry the weight of preserving the dwindling numbers of her kind. With Sera's father agreeing for her to be bound to Drake, if she flees, she will be abandoning her people as well.
It isn’t until Sera nearly falls into the hands of a predator that she begins seeing Drake as a source of safety rather than danger. He has always given her space. He has never forced her to get close to him. Instead, he patiently keeps his distance, only running to save her and bring her back from harm when she finds it.
When Sera finally feels the bond between them that Drake has been aware of all along, she also finds her own power. There are deep wounds and devastation that haunt wolf kind, and like Sera, they are not free. They are haunted and controlled by their own oppressors.
Can Sera and Drake’s true soul bond and their combined power help free the wolves from their oppressors as well as save the dwindling fae population? There is no lack of drama, suspense, and tantalizing romance in this epic tale of two fated mates who discover that they are much more powerful together than apart.
Excerpt from The Wolf’s Fire:
“Drake,” I say, speaking his name for the first time. Drake Rune. That’s the wolf’s name.
When he turns, it’s with such an intense expression that I’m struck speechless, forgetting why I’ve called him. It’s as if by doing so I have reached into a central part of him, tugging it free effortlessly. Now that surprising depth swells large in his hazel eyes, threatening to swallow me.
“Yes, Seraphina?” His voice is so richly seductive that I feel it resonating deep within, plucking invisible cords in my chest.
My gaze drops to the wolf’s lips and I imagine his mouth gliding over my skin, the coarse texture of his tongue, the restrained points of his teeth teasing that they will puncture, and for some reason I want them to.
