“I thought you'd be better at this."
"Why?"
Bridget shrugged. "'Cause your dad's a cop."
"Right," Matt said, shifting his body so he wasn't blocking the light. "Why wouldn't he teach me Breaking and Entering 101?"
Bridget stifled a yawn. "Might be helpful now."
"Patience, grasshopper." Matt inserted a second metal prong into the lock. "I know a few tricks."
Bridget heard a soft click, and Matt raised his eyebrows in an unspoken "I told you so" before twisting the handle. The door swung open.
"Slick, MacGyver," Bridget whispered, patting him on the head. "Remind me to give you a cookie.”

Thanks for accepting! Every single review I'm seeing for Ten is making me pray even harder for Pay day :D

Unfortunately, as of right now Balzer + Bray does not have a sequel scheduled. But if you'd like to see one, you can definitely let them know! ;)
Currently reading Possess. I've been a fan since YARebels and let me just say Possess has a POSSESSIVELY AMAZING HOLD on me. Bridget is such a badass heroin who doesn't play victim which is refreshing! I'm not even finished and I'm so excited to see there's going to be another! :D

Thanks for the add Gretchen! Did I just see in your comments there's going to be sequel to Possess? I didn't even ask that at the book signing. Wow, I loved Possess! You were the main reason I went to that signing(not to diminish the other writers!)

KaSonndra, thank you SO MUCH! There's a sequel tentatively scheduled for Fall 2013!
Hi Gretchen,Love, loved Possess! I hope there's more to come from you and Bridget in the near future. We need more originally fresh storylines like this one. Until then, I'll be waiting patiently. :-D
