Another Chance Excerpt and Giveaway

Excerpt Chapter One

Montana Territory, May 1879

"They're not going to get here in time."

Wade Parker ran a frustrated hand under his Stetson. What was taking so long? he wondered. He'd sent for the veterinarian almost an hour ago. Once he'd realized he'd had no other choice.

"They'll be here soon, son. But the way the rain's coming down, it'll slow down old Doc and Scott." James rested a calloused hand on Wade's shoulder. "Go check on the cow again, and I'll have a look outside."

Wade had been taught from a very young age that no matter how bad things ever got, there was always something to be thankful for. And right now, he was thankful for two things. One, for James. Not only had James been foreman of the Triple P for as long as Wade could remember, he was also a friend. A friend who, at times like these, was the rock Wade needed.

The other thing Wade was damn glad for was that Doc Fletcher's replacement hadn't arrived yet from Pennsylvania. Not that Wade hadn't helped chose his replacement and not that he wasn't satisfied of the new doc's qualifications, but with the lives of his animals at stake, he needed a familiar face tonight. One that he trusted. One that would get him through this latest crisis.

Because that was all Wade's life had been since losing first his wife, then his father, a series of crises. He couldn't afford, in the very real sense of the word, another.

Feeling much older than his twenty-eight years, Wade made his way to the stall. Behind him James' boots squished on the wet barn floor. Wade shook his head, disgusted not only with the decrepit state of his barn, but with the decrepit state of the whole ranch. If only his pa hadn't run them so far into debt. Wade braced his forearms on the stall and wished, not for the first time, that things could be different.

The animal's eyes were glazed with pain; her mooing was now raspy where a few short hours ago it had been loud and strong. Though she struggled to get up, she wasn't able to do more than lift her head. He cursed again, feeling an iron band of tension wrap around his shoulders.

Already in debt until he was practically drowning in it, he needed these animals to live. He'd already sold off a piece of his herd but he couldn't afford to sell them all. He needed enough to keep breeding, enough to keep selling. And if nothing else happened, maybe, just maybe, he'd start thinking about starting that horse ranch.

"They're here!" James yelled.

Relief poured through Wade. "Hang in there, girl. Help's on the way."

Wade ran to the door.

"Well," James said, pushing his hat further up his forehead. "This sure is an unexpected surprise."

"What's the problem?" Wade asked, stepping around James.

He stopped dead, felt his jaw slacken.

What greeted him in the yellow glow of the barn was not even remotely close to old Doc Fletcher, or the J. Matthews they'd hired to replace him. This wasn't the short, plump vet Wade had expected. Neither was he the tall, strapping man that Wade had pictured crossing a country to replace Doc Fletcher. Instead there stood a woman barely tall enough to reach Wade's shoulder.

She held her horse's reins in one gloved hand and saddle bags in the other. Though she didn't seem to notice, water streamed over the brim of her hat in a continuous flow. Her eyes never left his and the directness of that gaze stopped him momentarily. Wade turned to Scott. Scott Taylor, the only ranch hand Wade could afford besides James, shrugged.

"She was at Doc's place. Told me she could help," he explained.

"Doc's place?" Wade shook his head. That made no sense. If Doc wasn't at his place, then it should have been Dr. Matthews, as was the agreement made when they hired the new vet. He turned back to the woman.

Green eyes, a heart-shaped face. She was pretty, no question, but it wasn't pretty he needed at the moment. He glared at Scott then James. "This isn't the time for one of your practical jokes. We need a doctor now, dammit!"

He stepped out into the rain hoping, praying, Doc Fletcher was waiting around the corner with his bag in hand. Darkness and sheets of rain greeted Wade, but no Doc Fletcher.

The woman's voice cut through the rain like lightning. "Could you see that my horse is looked after?"

Wade spun round. She handed the reins to Scott then skirted past James, who stood wide eyed, and strode purposefully into the barn, saddle bags in hand.

"Wait just a minute!" Wade said as he loped behind her.

"What?" she asked, never once breaking stride.

"Where's Doc Fletcher?"

"He left town."

"Since when? He was still here last I heard."

"Apparently he didn't feel you needed to be apprised of his comings and goings," she said, slipping into the stall. She tossed her hat and dripping slicker onto the clean straw. A thick braid of auburn hair fell down her back.

Stunned, Wade could only watch as she opened her saddle bags, set a pristine white cloth onto the straw, and began placing shiny medical tools onto it.

None of what he was seeing made a lick of sense. "What are you doing?"

Her hands stilled, and her fiery green eyes snapped. "What I was sent for." She took her stethoscope, placed the hearing buds in her ears.

His gaze snapped right back. "I didn't fetch you, I fetched Doc Fletcher."

"No, you fetched the veterinarian."

"Exactly! So who the hell are you?"

Her braid had fallen over her shoulder and she tossed it over in frustration. "We don't have time for questions. Do you, or do not want your animal looked after?"

Not waiting for an answer, she shifted to her knees, skimmed her hands over the distended belly of the animal. He couldn't help it, his eyes roved over the woman. Her black belt cinched a tiny waist. Leaning over the way she was, it was only natural that he noticed the way her skirt draped over her trim backside.

He had no idea who she was. Her shoulders didn't look broad enough, nor did her hands appear strong enough to do what needed to be done. Why was she at Doc's? Why had she told Scott she could help? Granted, it did appear she knew what she was doing, yet his mind was telling him it was impossible. But, as she said, they didn't have the luxury of time. If Doc wasn't coming, she was his only hope.

His belly hitched. The band around his shoulders tightened threefold. Just when he thought things couldn't possibly get worse.

She placed the stethoscope to the cow's brown hide. The barn was silent as she worked, except for the constant patter of rain, both inside and outside.

"Is this her first time?" she asked when the cow tried once again to raise her head, then gave up with a low moan.

"It is," Wade answered.

"Calf must be too big for her." She fixed those green eyes on his again. "I'll need clean towels, warm water and all of you to help hold this cow down while I do the surgery."

Wade took a breath, nodded. Whether she knew what she was doing or not, she was here and she was all they had. He'd just have to trust that she could get his animal through this crisis alive.

"I'll get what you need," he answered, refusing to dwell on what ifs. He turned to James, who'd joined him at the stall. "Stay here in case she needs anything else."

Wade strode down the aisle, his pace increasing when the cow moaned again.

Scott, who was in the last stall tending the woman's horse, looked up as Wade approached. "You need me?"

"We will, just as soon as I get back."

"I'll be ready," Scott answered.

Wade ran for the house. His mother came running the moment he stepped inside. Worry filled her eyes.

"Did you lose them?"

"Not yet." Though with this unexpected turn of events, the possibility seemed more likely than ever.

Eileen Parker's shoulders fell. "Well, that's a blessing I'll take." Her hand shot up as he moved. "Don't you step off that rug with those muddy boots!"

"Ma, I'm in a hurry," Wade grumbled, though he placed his foot back onto the rug. "We need hot water and as many old rags or towels you can spare."

"I figured you might and I've had pots simmering on the stove. The rags are right there at your feet, I'll get the water from the kitchen."


Another Chance
By Michelle Beatti

Being a veterinarian in the late 1800's is difficult enough, but for Jillian Matthews it's impossible. Not allowed in the vet schools, she trained at her father's side until she had the skills needed to move west. Jillian accepts an advertisement for a position in Montana, using only her initials which happen to be same as her father's. Convinced that in the untamed west, her skills will be valued and appreciated, regardless of her gender, she's quickly proved wrong.

Wade Parker is sure the pretty redhead claiming to be the vet he sent for is one of his ranch hands' practical jokes but the fiery woman very quickly puts him in his place and proves him wrong. His impression, however, turns south when the animal she operated on later dies. With a ranch on the verge of bankruptcy, losing an animal was the last thing he could afford and he can't help thinking the old vet, the male doctor, wouldn't have let his animal die.

With Wade's initial reaction guiding them, the town is quick to want Jillian out. But the more Wade gets to know Jillian, the more he sees her grit and compassion, the harder he falls for her. When Wade realizes he was too hasty in his judgment and urges the town to give Jillian another chance, he makes more than few enemies. Enemies that would do almost anything to get her out, and to make sure Wade doesn't take her side again.

Soon threats turn to violence and both Wade and Jillian must make a stand. The problem is, at what cost?

Guest Blog and Giveaway with Louisa Bacio

Blood Ties

By Louisa Bacio

Does the blood of different individuals taste different? Like variations of wine, one imagines the sweetness of a young woman, fresh from skinny-dipping in a cool mountain lake, or the richness of a wealthy man after a heavy meal. But what would a witch taste like? How about a werewolf?

The imagination spikes … intoxicating.

When writing about the world of the paranormal, or as I refer to them Others, I listen to what my inspiration whispers in my ear. Some may wonder where the information comes from. Perhaps, walking down the streets of New Orleans, carefully treading over cobblestone paths, I've met a few creatures of the night in the darkened shadows.

Maybe, a lifetime fascination with the world beyond the human realm, and countless hours spent reading the mesmerizing accounts have helped fuel my stories.

The Vampire, The Witch & The Werewolf: Chains of Silver delves deeper into the dark world of the Others. Fang-bangers and vampires mix among the tourists in a bar called Club Blood, where the signature drink is a Vampire's Kiss martini. And when a rogue gang of vampires continues to not only hunt but take part in blood sport, Silver and her vampire-hunting boyfriend Nick must go where darkness has taken over, an abandoned amusement park.

Shadows exist within our world. Some we may see clearly, and others that lurk on the outskirts of our vision. Areas where we may not be sure what is fiction, and what is reality. Hopefully, if you're a reader a bit like me, you'll take pleasure in escaping from everyday life into a world not quite different than ours.

What do you think? What makes you believe?

Thrilled to be visiting Fang-Tastic Books today. Thank you for hosting, and make sure to drop by Club Blood sometime. Someone will be waiting …

Release Day : Reluctant Revenge

Reluctant Revenge
by Xandra James
Short Blurb:
Nash was bound to Sienna completely – by a blood connection and a deep desire. An Enforcer for the Supranormal community, he was obligated to protect his sexy assignment, despite her family devastating his world.

After being betrayed, Sienna falls into the arms of her surly protector; a demon with a secret of his own. But can she face her destiny knowing she's more dangerous than those Nash was protecting her from?







Excerpt:
"I don't believe you."
"You don't believe what?" He made himself comfortable in the ratty looking seat and turned to her, his eyes already dismissive of anything she had to say.
"About the hunter thing. Why would you tell me that?"
"I don't lie, Sienna. Your family has been doing this for many years." He turned to look out of the windscreen. "Too many years. And they've hunted a lot of creatures." Nash turned to face her once more. "And even a human or two. Not that your family seems to have many qualms about that." His face had hardened, she noticed, lines appearing around his eyes as he glared at her.
Sienna looked at him hard before actually making herself jump when a gurgle of laughter erupted from her mouth. He frowned at her which made her laugh harder.
"I'm sorry, I really am. But I think you might have inhaled too much gun smoke." She wiped her right eye where a tear had started to form. "I appreciate the save earlier on and obviously we need to get to the bottom of why I was chased, but I really don't think it was ghosts that were behind it all."
Nash looked like he wanted to throttle her. It sobered her slightly but the mirth still hovered. This sexy man was seriously cuckoo. Why were all the pretty ones gay or nuts?
"Ghosts weren't behind it. I believe Strix were."
"And what are Strix, may I ask?"
He hesitated for only a moment before speaking again.
"Vampires who eat flesh with animal ferocity."
Now, that was what she needed to snap her out of her sense of humour. He was talking blood suckers now. Did the police force know he should be suspended on medical grounds? She thought about her dilemma. Here she was, stuck in the middle of nowhere with a cop who thought vampires were real. Although she was pretty sure he wouldn't hurt her – hell, he'd saved her from certain death earlier on – he was still a tad unpredictable. Maybe she could talk to him about it all? Make him think she believed him until he dropped her off at the nearest police station? Mind made up, Sienna smiled sweetly.
"Tell me about these vampires then. Are they like the ones in the movies?"
"They are much, much worse. Believe me." He smiled at her and if she didn't know better, he had figured out she was just humouring him.
"So... can I see one?"
"That wouldn't be your smartest idea, Princess." Sienna nodded, pretending to be deep in thought and ignored the Princess quip.
"Are you one?"
"Nope."
"But you are human though, right?" Nash chuckled again, looking back towards the front windscreen.
"Do I look human, Sienna?" Nash turned towards her and whatever she was about to say went out the window. Her breath caught in her throat and she stumbled away from the car door.
Eyes that were once green now shined in a golden hue, his pupils dilated into slits, reminiscent of a cat. But that wasn't what had caught her attention and made her hair stand on end. As she watched, the once tanned face that she'd admired minutes before was changing. No more was his skin clear but intricate markings had appeared in a line along the side of his face and disappeared down under the collar of his t-shirt. The hand that held the steering wheel caught her attention then and she watched in horror as the nails grew into small points and turned a deep black.
Nash was a... he was a...
She didn't know what he was.
Sienna's brain finally gave her two choices. Faint, which she longed for to put her into a state of unconsciousness. Or, run.
Her feet made the decision for her.

Jilted for the third time in as many years, Deirdre's decided to give up on love.

He just hadn't expected the feisty redhead to be so much more than long legs and dangerous curves.

One night neither of them can forget…

Deirdre and Ayden both thought one sexually explosive romp in the sack would be the end of their relationship. But Deirdre's arrest for heroin possession and her father's near-fatal heart attack prompts Ayden to confess his true identity. When Deirdre is kidnapped by the drug cartel and used as a pawn, Ayden is forced to choose between his heart and his mission. The question is…who will survive his decision?

Olivia isn't expecting a gorgeous man who encourages her wilder nature with a sizzling erotic encounter in her room. Nor does she anticipate the amount of steam they generate in the sauna. With Micah's hot body and Olivia's innate sensuality they generate enough heat to melt the snow around the lodge.
One problem—Olivia isn't aware she's a shifter. She believes her vivid dreams are just that—dreams—and that her blackouts can be controlled with medication. There's no way she's been running through the woods on four feet! Micah has to convince Olivia to accept herself—paws and all—or lose her forever.

Her tears called a powerful snow god to life, but only her love can grant the humanity he craves…
Desperate to escape agonizing memories of Christmas past, twenty-nine-year-old widow Megan Snow builds a snow family outside the mountain cabin she once shared with her husband, realizing too late that she's recreated the very thing she'll never have.

Called to life by Megan's tears, snow god Owen Winters appears unconscious on her doorstep in the midst of a raging blizzard. As she nurses him to health, Owen finds unexpected solace in her company and unimagined pleasure in the warmth of her body, and vows to win her heart for a chance at humanity.

Megan is drawn to Owen's mismatched eyes, otherworldly masculinity, and enthusiasm for the littlest things. But this Christmas miracle comes with an expiration--before the snow melts and the temperature rises, Megan must let go of her widow's grief and learn to trust love again, or she'll lose Owen forever.

A powerful wizard with a physics degree and a checkered past invents a shield to ensure he'll never again be tortured almost to death.

When the shield is stolen by the magical mafia, Ilene McConnell and Michael Morgan have to work together to recover it, although they disagree about what to do with it. Michael claims he needs the device as insurance against the kind of injury and injustice he suffered once before. Ilene maintains its potential to upset the delicate balance of power makes it too dangerous and that it needs to be destroyed.
Finding and reclaiming the shield will drag them through a maze of powerful and power-hungry wizards who want the shield themselves. They'll face danger, magical battles, betrayal, and heartbreak to protect the world from the peril of a wizard with unlimited ambition and unchecked power.

Excerpt of The Chosen by Sheenah Freitas

Chapter One Excerpt

While trying desperately to remember the words to the song she had been humming earlier, Kaia began to notice smoke rising high above the trees. The wind blew a heavy scent of burning leaves toward her and she broke into a full run, spilling the blackberries across the path and tossing the bucket aside in frustration. Crackles and splitting wood rang throughout the forest, nearly drowning out the bloodcurdling screams and mournful cries that rose above the hellish flames.

Smoke and tears blurred her vision. Kaia slowed down, exhausted from her sudden sprint. She coughed out the smoke that threatened to suffocate her lungs and the heat almost unbearable point here at the perimeter of the growing flames: her village.

There was nothing she could do except watch it burn away, yet her brain continued to race, trying desperately to think of a way she could extinguish the massive flames. She came up with nothing. With her mind numb, she meekly called out, "Mom?"

Kaia's voice went unheard with the anguish shout of the blaze. It inched closer with every passing second. Her heart began racing and she shouted, "MOM!" while running recklessly toward the fire. Two arms shot out from behind and embraced her, halting her body.

"Let go! Let go! I need to see my mom!" She thrashed and threw her body against them until her body grew limp from exhaustion. The arms loosened around her slowly; her body slumped down into a heap. As she sobbed, a hand rested tentatively on her shoulder sending a shiver down her spine. Hesitantly, Kaia lifted her eyes to see who had stopped her from rescuing her mother.

She expected to see the face of someone much older, but was surprised to find a teenager of around 17--an adult to her village's standards. His eyes were mysterious and glued her eyes to his. They penetrated her, appearing to see every thought and secret. His hair, like hers, was an unusual color, though his was a light indigo. He kept his hair a bit longer than most males, but wore it tied back. The glow of the fire caused his face to seem hard, which only frightened her more since he showed no sign of friendliness. Whatever he was to her, she wished he would stop looking at her.

After what felt like an eternity, he finally spoke. His voice was tough, straining to sound friendly, but failed and came out commanding, "Go to the shrine. It's safe there."

"Why?" she asked, tentatively, her voice barely a whisper.

"There's no time to explain. Just do it!"

She still didn't move and just as she was about to question him again they heard a noise. In a nearby tree, the spotted a man standing on a sturdy branch. Dressed in black, he held a box of matches and had a sword at his side. He tossed the box up and down, up and down, and then suddenly stopped. He looked down at them and feigned surprise. Casually, he threw the box into the inferno and gave a sinister smirk.

"It would appear that I missed two," he said, gracefully unsheathing his sword and directing it at them. "Now, who should I kill first? Her--or you?"

The man looked over Kaia and her face scrunched up in revulsion as the man smirked and licked his lips slowly as he clutched the hilt of his sword. The teenage boy's eyes hardened and he stepped closer toward Kaia.

As she took a few tentative steps back to distance herself from the man and the steadily approaching flames, the teenager said, "I don't think you'll be killing us. Or anyone else for that matter."

She looked quickly at the teenager, but his face was still without emotion. The man in the tree laughed, turning Kaia's attention back to him.

"And why won't I be killing anymore?" he bellowed.

"I'll tell you why," the teenager said, his voice rising with anger, "because I'm going to put a stop to it!"

Kaia saw that the had a sword of his own. He agilely unsheathed it and pointed it toward the man in black. The man only laughed. "You're barely out of diapers, and you think you can take me on?"

The teenager said nothing, but coldly stared back. More quickly than she could follow, the man jumped down from his perch. Kaia squeaked and moved behind the teenager. The teenager, however, didn't flinch. He seemed steadfast and sure of himself. The man in black also noticed his demeanor and his grin vanished.

"What's your name?" the man suddenly asked.

"The name's Reeze," he answered coolly. "And yours?"

The man gave a wolfish grin. "You can call me Tipton."

Kaia closed her eyes for a split second, wishing desperately that everything was just a dream. Opening her eyes, she found Reeze right in front of her holding back an attack. Sweat glistened on his forehead as he strained to push Tipton back, while Tipton was again grinning.

"Go!" Reeze yelled at her. Reluctantly, she scrambled up and mustered enough energy to get up and sprint toward the shrine, never looking back.

THE CHOSEN: BOOK ONE

Kaia's entire life has erupted in flames after an assassin appears and burns her village down.

She's rescued by a god from another planet who requests her help because she's the descendant of their last savior.

Together with Reeze — the only other survivor from her village and her appointed guardian — they set off on a quest to find the treasures of the gods in hopes of preventing a dire prophesy.

Kaia and Reeze quickly meet the Tueors, a group of people many thought extinct, who are searching specifically for Kaia.

Their intention: to protect the truth. As Kaia discovers more about the truth and her family's past, she also learns of the Tueors' bloody secret.

Will Kaia be the savior the gods have been waiting for? Or will she let the
prophesy come true?
