The Forever Girl
Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / iBooks / Google Play -- EXCERPT: Once Circe disappeared into the crowd, Thalia smiled at Charles. “That one”—she bit her thumbnail and indicated me with her pinky—“would be valuable.” A vein pulsed in Charles’ neck, and a soft hum vibrated through his body. Why didn’t he just shift? “Surely you aren’t attached?” she asked, dropping her hand away from her mouth. “You’re outside your rights, Thalia.” “Temper, temper.” She sighed, the sound sickening coming from her. “But, my sweet Charlie, we’ve missed you. And what of Adonis and Blake? Have you forgotten who your friends are?” “These women know nothing.” His voice sounded rougher, more gravelly. “Do not cross me.” “Cross you? Oh Charlie, I’d never cross you.” She patted his chest and winked. “You’ve already crossed.” A young, scrawny vampire pushed his way through the crowd. He bowed toward Thalia. “I’m sure Charles can handle this…misunderstanding. He’s been around longer than both of us put together.” He arched his eyebrows. Thalia stepped back, cocked her head to one side, and tapped a finger against her cheek. “Fine. We have their scents.” To Charles, she added, “Pray you handle this well.”

Awakened
Goodreads / Amazon / iBooks / Google Play -- EXCERPT: A couple minutes later, she followed him. Whatever he’d prepared smelled delicious. He moved around the kitchen unsure. She raised her eyebrows while she watched him. He caught the gesture and looked embarrassed. “Most of the time, I cheat and use magic so I can do something else. I haven’t manually cooked in a while.” She looked at him wide-eyed, with her mouth gaped open. Even though he’d told her earlier, they were witches she still was having a hard time believing it. “You cook with magic, like they do in Harry Potter? That’s so cool. I know you told everyone not to use it, but just show me a little something. I won’t tell.” Awe and child-like wonder permeated her voice. “Cross my heart.” She made the sign of the cross over her heart. She gave him a sheepish smile and looked away before she continued talking about magic, in the hopes he’d forget her listening to their conversation. “I would be the ultimate multi-tasker if I was a witch. Say ‘Abracadabra’ and make the food magically appear on the plate or something.” Willow was giddy with excitement. Eli chuckled. “I’m not a wizard. I don’t say ‘Abracadabra.’” He shook his head. His explanation confused her. “What does that mean? I thought wizard was a name for a male witch.” He sighed and put down the pot he was holding. That comment appeared to get his undivided attention. “You watch too much television. First, regardless of gender, we’re known as witches, those of us that practice white magic. Warlocks are witches that practice black magic. Wizards are charlatans, posers. They don’t know magic, but are exceptional at trickery so they can give someone who doesn’t know any better the illusion they do.” She digested the information he’d just given her. “That’s why everyone went silent earlier when Matty referenced black magic, because none of you practice it?” He nodded and picked up the pot of noodles. “Yes. Now may I finish making dinner?” “So you’re not going to cook with magic?” She was expecting him to do tricks and wow her. Disappointment marred her brow, when he didn’t whip out a magic wand or say a spell. “You just said so yourself, that you overheard me tell everyone magic is off limits.” Her shoulders slumped in discontent and she pouted. “You can’t do even a tiny little spell?” “Nope.” She rolled her eyes. “Great. A witch who can’t do any spells or magic.” Eli looked offended. “I didn’t say I can’t do magic. I’m just unable to do any at this time.” “Uh, huh.” He bristled at her disinterest and she had to hold back a sly grin. “Wizard.” She mumbled under her breath, knowing it would get a rise out of him. “I’m not a wizard! I can do magic!” If she lit a match and threw it at him, he would have gone up in flames he was fuming so hard. “Whatever.” Maybe she’d just…

Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / iBooks -- EXCERPT: “A reminder, Dr. Becker. If you run into anything unusual, tell me.” She tried to make sense of what he said. “You mean at the clinic?” “I mean anywhere. I’ve noticed you tend to run hell-bent into situations you don’t know anything about. It’s a good way to get yourself into a world of trouble.” Carolyn mulled over his comment. “I wouldn’t do anything stupid.” “All the same, take care.” He certainly didn’t have much confidence in her good sense. It ought to make her furious. Instead, her body tingled. Was it the wine? Carolyn wasn’t sure. He moved closer. So close, she could feel his warm breath on her face. His expression remained impassive, yet she detected something within the silvery depths of his eyes. His palm cupped her cheek and he said, “Are you sure it’s wise to trust me?” She didn’t have an answer since blood pounded through her veins in a most disconcerting way. His eyes held hers, and he leaned closer. Her lips parted, and she let her eyelids close against the magnetic attraction of his gaze. Would he kiss her? She waited expectantly. A cell phone shrilled, and her eyes flew open. He uttered a soft curse and retrieved his phone. One glance at the screen darkened his face. “What is it?” “Sorry. This is important. I’ve got to go.” “But…” She felt disembodied, as though abruptly awakened from a deep sleep, and pointed toward the oven. “What about dinner?” “We’ll have dinner another day, but next time it will be on me.” With one wicked grin, he retrieved his jacket from the chair where it hung. She watched until the door closed behind him, then pondered how to interpret what he said. Dinner? On him? What did he mean by that? A sudden burst of giggles erupted, which quickly turned into hiccups. She held her breath and counted to twenty. The hiccups subsided, but a wisp of smoke curled from the oven. Carolyn leaped up and raced for the kitchen.

What Comes After
--
Chance: Book 3 of a 3 book arc
BOOK TRAILER: -- EXCERPT: “Good news,” Sinner grinned as he walked into the room. “I got you ice cream.” “Are fuc- serious?” I glanced over at Payton, hoping she didn’t catch my little slip-up. Morgan stood and took Payton’s hand. “Why don’t we see if we can find you some ice cream?” “Can we get some for Chance?” Payton looked at me, trying not to laugh. It was f^@king obvious that the last thing I wanted was ice cream. “Sure. I think we should get him some Mint Chocolate Chip.” I glared at her, but she just smiled at me. After they left, I motioned for Sinner to bring the ice cream over. I feigned not being able to move and he brought it real close. I took the cup and pushed it into his face. Ice cream dripped from his nose and mouth and there were splashes of ice cream all around his eyes. “Feel better?” he asked as he picked up some napkins and swiped at his face. “F^@king fantastic.” “You know, I was just trying to do you a solid.” “How is ice cream doing me a solid?” “No one brought me ice cream when I was in the hospital,” he pouted. “And my d^ck was practically singed off. If there’s ever a time for ice cream, it’s when you’re almost singing soprano.” “Yeah, see, I just have a few bullet holes. I’d rather have steak.” “What do you have against ice cream? It’s comfort food.” “For chicks.” “Guys like it too.” “Do you know any guys that sit down and say, ‘I’m feeling blue. I think I need some ice cream to cheer me up.’” Sinner shrugged, leaning back in his chair and pouting. “I don’t see what’s wrong with it. Ice cream feeds the soul.” I rolled my eyes at him and plopped my head down on the pillow. “Please tell me that you’re not starting in with this shit.” I pointed toward the hallway. “Go. Find me a man that can bring me a steak.” “Nobody opens up about their feelings over steak.” “Is that what this is about? You’re all trying to get me to share at storytime?” “Look, we’ve all been there at one time or another. Sharing helps to set free those demons and unlock your inner-” “If you don’t shut the hell up, I’m going to unlock my inner a$$hole and shove this table up your a$$.” “Geez, you know, I just came in here to chat.”
