Short's Short: Short Story Cate DeLuca

How will former-villain Marc Short win the woman he adores, now that he is human again?

When antiquities smuggler Marc Short awakens from his gold-sickness, starved, filthy, and wanted for the apparent murder of his best friend, he must use all the many wits at his disposal to extricate himself, calling in favor after favor and seducing whatever woman or man might best suit his needs. But will all that be enough to cash in his stolen gold and win the woman he adores?
