Live & Learn: 7 DAYS AWAY SNEAK PEEK!

It's been awhile.
But Live & Learn releases next Tuesday.
In case I've failed to mention it once or twice, now you know.


Let me tell you now that this book will not be a short read. I cut it down as much as I could, but there were a few parts in particular that just couldn't help but be long. When you read them, you'll know why. 

I think Book 3 will leave you with some questions. I even had some as I was writing it, but I realize I can't answer everything for you when I write. Otherwise, the book would never end. So some things are left up for you to ponder until the next book comes out. I think L&L will make you wonder about various circumstances that take place and you'll ask why some characters have done or continue to do certain things. And frankly, you might want a few of them gone for good. I don’t honestly know that yet, but I'm preparing for it.

I have to admit, the original ending for Live & Learn was a lot different than what you'll read. I rewrote it this past weekend because what I had originally planned didn't fit with the scope of the story up to that point. I also watched last Thursday's episode of Grey's Anatomy and was in a different mental state while rereading the book during the final edits (#RIPMcDreamy, I'm still not over it). That said, I'm happier with the ending as it fits, but it was difficult to write a certain scene. No one *SPOILER ALERT* dies, but it was kind of tough to get through.


But, OKAY! Now that that is out there....
Here's the 2nd Sneak Peek:
 

When he went over to the kitchen and didn’t see anything out of place, he gradually moved toward the living room, but stopped completely when he heard a creaking noise coming from above his head. He looked up, then turned behind him, his eyes focused on the stairs. He looked to the ceiling one last time before heading over and placing his hand on the railing, grabbing on tight. With each step he took, he felt something moving further and further up inside his chest telling him to turn back, to leave the house and pretend as if he had never been there that night. But he couldn’t. Something bigger, stronger and much more powerful than a short whisper had compelled him to keep moving forward. Once he reached the top, he looked down either side of the hallway and saw that shadowy light again; it was only when he got closer that he realized it was the light blazing from a candle. As he crept closer to it, he heard a noise echoing between the walls and down to where he stood. It was the sound of a woman who expressed a pleasurable kind of pain, the kind that didn’t warrant any help from anyone except from the person providing it to her.  


Who is HE and WHAT exactly is he hearing?

CRASHED: A SKULL & BONES MC

It's been a while!  So much has been going on within the world and my personal life that I had to take a severe step back with my writing. I hated it, but it was also necessary. Because I suffered from terrible writer's block and as a result, was unable to pen anything worth reading.  I started writing CRASHED sometime in 2020 before stopping and then trying to pick it up over the last four years. I was never bored with the story but overtime, became unmotivated to finish. Within the last few months, I was able to change that and finally finish the story that had initially gotten me back on my feet after Professor X .  There are some things I changed about the original story, such as the name of the MC, a few themes and the cover. But overall, the story itself is the same and has gone back to the roots of the first MC I had ever written and published, Inflamed . River and Mia also make appearances in this story, by the way.  If you would like to sign up to read an A...

#WriterWednesday - Inflamed 'Fun Fact!'

Did you know...? The scene in which Mia & River finally talk about their feelings for each other and hook up was written about a month before nearly everything else that happened prior to it. Right after I wrote the prologue and first three chapters, there was a giant gap of 'stuff' that was supposed to happen, but I wasn't sure how to fill it because I didn't know what any of that 'stuff' would be. So I decided to move forward with other parts of the story until it finally hit me. That exact moment of their hook up came to me as I was writing another scene, and I just went with it, all while having zero clue as to how the hell they got to that point (given where they started)! It was only when I finished those scenes that I knew what I was building up to and how the story itself would come to an end. It amplified and intensified every conversation and encounter between them, hence the name of the book. I changed the cover three times in the hope of ...

UPDATES: Why I've Been Off The Grid, and REAPER'S FIGHT: A WILD REAPERS MC

I first want to say to my readers that I DEEPLY apologize for the continued delay and silence regarding Reaper's Fight . But I have to be honest in telling you all that I have considered not even putting it, or any other book like it, out for the last few months or so, and I can't fully explain all of that without fearing that I might piss you off or let you down or both. There's been so much going on in the world as of late, one thing on top of another, piling on like bricks on top of more, unsturdy bricks, that I've been battling with myself and what I write; I've been battling with how I write and what's appropriate as well as what isn't. And for a longggg time, the joy of putting words on paper had been completely zapped from me. I'd literally look at my laptop and sigh because I just couldn't bring myself to upload the book or allow it to be read by anyone else, even as an edit. Currently, I'm still struggling on a certain level, but I...
