What if ?
ISBN 978-2-95000031-0-2 paperback
​
This is the paperback version, it has a different cover to the ebook.
A story of heartache and pain, sins, misadventures, Amazons, war, curses, a gods wrath and finally redemption.
What if even an ordinary mortal could alter history? There are so many theories as to what time is and what it would mean, if you could alter history and perhaps create an alternative time line in a parallel universe by that.
Well, being interested in astrology and a technician I have always rejected such theories, just until I woke up in HER bed and found myself changed …
What if ?

PH sais: 5 stars Loved it! 20 janvier 2019 - Publié sur Amazon.com
Wow - what a wonderful story Monique has crafted. If you think you would like a story that combines Shari Tepper's "The Gate to Women's Country," Marion Zimmer Bradley's "The FIrebrand," Mary Renault's "The King Must Die," and Rick Riordan's cosmology of the Greco-Roman gods, you'll love this one.
The way Monique brings to life the relationships between these women who are both comrades in arms and fellow nurturers makes the reader truly care for these characters (who are truly badass.) Her portrayal of the honorable men who are unafraid of female power - Hector, Aeneas, and surprisingly Ares (as opposed to Agamemnon, Ajax, Odysseus, Zeus) - is hopeful.

Lovely Ending.

In fact it was better than I had hoped for. I know a woman whose parents were in France in WWII, and the stories I have heard ...
Very good writing.

Simply that, brilliant story with an explosive ending. I hope this wasn't the end but I fear it could well be.

Wife, mother, friend
Submitted by BarbieLee on Sat, 2019/02/16 - 12:22pm
It has been said, behind every great man there is a woman. Whether it is the wife, their mother, a friend, or someone they look up to. There were and are great men which we all admire. Unsurprisingly there were and are great women. Many lost in history because if mentioned at all it is usually a couple paragraphs in the history books, if at all.
I like the courage and strength of all the women portrayed in Viper.
Well done, Monique
The Princess of Lights

​
Magna is almost desperate, a disastrous legal dispute with his ex-partners has left him more or less broke, unemployed and unable to find work.
The offer from London to interview for the position of technical director seems like a god-sent. He quickly contacts his long term friend Sandra for a place to sleep and spends most of his last money on the plane ticket to Heathrow.
Sandra is overjoyed to see him again and appalled at the story of the betrayal by his former partners, of whom he had thought of as friends. Magna on the other hand learns that Sandra has found out that she is definitely bi if not lesbian and now is in a relationship with a lesbian partner, May, who has a rather unusual profession, she is a wardrobe mistress.
The two women joke about him having a make-over by May and then going out as three girls, but none of them knows yet, how much May’s experience will be needed very soon, as the job interview reveals, that What Else Productions looks for a high class female lighting technician as technical director for an all female musical production.
Well and truly in need of a break and money Magna decides to copy a page from Sandra’s book and to do something rather crazy, he offers to work the length of the contract pretending to be a woman ...

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent complex TG fiction (?) or is it fiction? Has all the feel of an autobiography
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2020
Format: Kindle Edition
Complex almost seemingly autobiographical intertwining of multiple plots which holds your interest well. Monique has the ability and could become a force in the unique field of TG fiction... If you enjoy the writings of Tanya Allan and Karin Bishop as well as the others in the genre... you will not be disappointed with any of Monique's works.

5,0 von 5 Sternen The Princess of Lights
Rezension aus Deutschland vom 11. März 2020
Format: Kindle Ausgabe
Having read “What if?” and “Viper” before and loved them “The Princess of Lights” certainly startled me a little bit, but then I remembered the title image and realised, that I had been deceived by my expectations of another fantasy/adventure kind of thing. I soon realised, though, that this is a completely different kind of adventure, the adventure of a gifted technician, who, forced by circumstance, discovers a repressed part of herself and embarks on the adventure of joining a musical production, that might be difficult, as the theme could become quite contentious.
As she concentrates, though, on making the technical side as perfect as can be and yet as cost conscious as possible, she unwittingly embarks on a road to success, personally as well as professionally. I will stop here to avoid spoilers, that might reduce your enjoyment of this story, that is as heart warming as sometimes funny, deep and in all a gripping read. There’s romance in there, too, just in case you are wondering. The setting is somewhat contemporary, London in the second half of the 1980s, and it is clear that the authoress has a deep and fond affinity to both, the work and the place here described. I love the book a lot.

Amazing to read afterwards that she had done some of the jobs described. Love the details.

Foreign Influence
ISBN: 978-2-9500031-5-7
ISBN: 978-2-9571889-2-4
IA dead body has been dumped in the red light district of Hamburg and the Head of the local station, Revier Davidstrasse or Davidwache, as the locals know it, isn't happy at all. There are no clues as to the identity of the victim, who, despite her very nice female attributes, isn't quite that: a woman. Kommissar Schneider asks for help from special branch, the Sonderdezernat, and Hauptkommisar Buchholz charges his most experienced agent, Wolf Schwedt, who is a master of disguises, with it.
Wolf has to realise quickly that he has no other chance than to go under cover in the transvestite and transgender scene of the district in Grosse Freiheit and, to be more precise, the Monika Bar. Trying to play the timid novice doesn't work as hoped, but when he comes back another day to the Monika Bar, a strange lady drugs and abducts him with the aim of feminising him and make him her whore.
The plan works but has a rather different result than expected. His police training enables him to escape, but after having been raped by the bouncers and later seduced by the mistress of the brothel he is deeply disturbed. The only person he trusts to meet, since he's still looking completely like a woman, is Angela, the patrol woman from Davidwache Schneider has assigned as liaison.
She takes the newly minted Monika in and they have sex, as Angela is a lesbian and Monika is just too sexy to pass by, specially as the new drug, that is all the rage among the lesbians, is still very much active in Monika. A friend of Angela's, who is a hypnotherapist, helps Monika cope with her new image and desires and Monika comes to terms with the fact, that she possibly was transgender from the beginning.
As the case progresses and Monika and Angela discover the identity of the victim it becomes more and more clear, that this is much, much bigger than just a murder case, there is a Russian gang, that threatens to invade not only the red light district but Hamburg in general with demands for protection payments. A continuously more and more dangerous investigation forces Monika to become the woman, who stands between the ladies of the quarter and the Russian gang.
