http://www.amazon.com/Vestal-Virgin-Suspense-Ancient-ebook/dp/B004G093HQ
Elissa Rubria Honoria is a Vestal Virgin--priestess of the sacred flame, a
visionary, and one of the most powerful women in Rome. Vestals are sacrosanct,
sworn to chastity on penalty of death, but the emperor, Nero, holds himself
above the law. He pursues Elissa, engaging her in a deadly game of wits and
sexuality. Or is Elissa really the pursuer? She stumbles on dark secrets. No
longer trusting Roman gods, she follows a new god, Jesus of Nazareth,
jeopardizing her life and the future of The Roman Empire.

"Suzanne Tyrpak weaves a spell that utterly enchants and delights. Her writing
is pure magic."
• A torrid tale of love, honor, and sacrifice pitted against horrific acts of
murder, betrayal, and depravity. Rife with intrigue and brimming with
exquisite detail, Vestal Virgin is a deftly paced masterpiece of historical
fiction. I hope Tyrpak is planning another foray into this ancient world . .
. and soon!

Ghost Plane and Other Disturbing Tales
http://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Plane-Other-Disturbing-ebook/dp/B0058OX86G
Take a ride on the Ghost Plane. Eleven twisted tales about life, love, and
insanity. Eleven tales that explore the darker recesses. If you're afraid to
look too deeply in the mirror, read no further.
Scott Nicholson says: "Suzanne Tyrpak shows in these tales that horror can not
only
aspire to literary value, but also explore emotional and psychological terrain
that is
difficult to reach via other roads. Horror can hit you in the gut or mess with
your head,
but at its best it can reach into your heart as well. And these tales reflect
perhaps the
biggest horror of all—that we are alive, and this life is full of pain and
death and love and
sharp edges...
Enter this circus and let Suzanne show you why horror is the greatest show on
earth."
This collection of short stories is composed of three segments: Airport
Stories, Hot
Flashes, and Gothica. They range in length from 100 words to over 3000. Total
word
count is approximately 15,000 words, about 55 pages.

Dating My Vibrator (and other true fiction)
http://www.amazon.com/DATING-VIBRATOR-other-fiction-ebook/dp/B003XYFN5M
Dating My Vibrator and other true fiction is a collection of nine true and
almost true short stories all based (unfortunately) on my own experience:
dating, divorce, desperation—all that good stuff. After nineteen years of
marriage I was thrust into a brave new world of dating: online, offline,
standing in line, listening to lines. And I have survived to tell these tales.
CAUTION: if you're contemplating divorce, these stories may convince you to
consider marriage counseling. If you're out there dating, chances are you will
relate. OMG! Here's a scary thought: maybe you've met some of these guys.
Names have been changed to protect the guilty. Joe Konrath gave it 5 stars and
says, "Pure Comedic Brilliance."
