When she checks on your tattoos – UNTIL WE FALL CHAPTER 10

Nalini I smile and barely stop myself from leaning in. I don’t need to be seen making out in the middle of my future office space.  Not that it’s not a tempting idea.  I clear my throat and step back, my palm resting on his chest for a moment too long.  “Yeah, well, it was […]

The way back from rock bottom is paved with construction – UNTIL WE FALL CHAPTER 9

Nalini The old Calhoun warehouse is prime real estate. It’s nestled between the already gentrified area around the Durham Bulls stadium and the old tobacco district that’s still being restored one building at a time, and somehow I snagged a bargain that should have been illegal. Well, given that the previous owners were using it […]

Renovations & Romance – UNTIL WE FALL Chapter 8

Nalini The headquarters of Rossi Construction is in an old tobacco warehouse a few blocks away from the Durham Bulls stadium, halfway across the downtown area. I’m not entirely sure what I expect from this meeting but Sam and I go way back to West Point, and if anyone can help me figure out the […]

Chainsaws & Therapy – UNTIL WE FALL CHAPTER 7

Nalini When a man walks into the destroyed remnants of a yoga studio with a chainsaw, most women do not think oh, my hero. No, most sane women would think this is usually how horror movies start.  But when that man is the man you just spent the last three hours with down in a […]

He’s never done this before- UNTIL WE FALL CHAPTER 5

Caleb I don’t know how to kiss a woman.  At least, I don’t know how to do it sober. I’m desperately afraid of screwing this up. Of pushing her away.  I only meant to offer comfort. The decision to pull her close was made out of pure instinct, something I wish someone had done for […]

When she’s become something he didn’t know he needed – UNTIL WE FALL CHAPTER 4

Caleb Being sober isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. There’s arousal and awkward tension tightening in my belly, my heart pounding far too loudly in my head. I swallow hard, unwilling and unable to look away from the depths of her dark eyes. Eyes that make me feel like she can see into the […]

How does she know to do that – UNTIL WE FALL Chapter 3

Caleb She says nothing for a long time. The storm thrashes above us, its violence reminding me far too closely of the sounds of mortar and rocket attacks on our tiny base in northern Iraq. It’s showing no sign of letting up, even after almost an hour. I’m not used to storms hanging around like […]

He’s burned every bridge – UNTIL WE FALL CHAPTER 2

Caleb I adjust the cushion and lean back against the wall. What I really want to do is light a dozen more candles and get a small bonfire going but that wouldn’t be very considerate of my host and products I’m confident she’s trying to sell.  “How long do you think we’ll be down here?” […]

Trapped in a Storm – UNTIL WE FALL – CHAPTER 1

Two Months Later Caleb  I used to think storms in Texas were bad. Then I moved to North Carolina and got exposed to a whole new world of violence, courtesy of Mother Nature. Of course, in Texas, I drove everywhere and I usually didn’t find myself out in said storms.  I’m regretting my life choices, […]
