You can grab your copy Here


It’s been a while since I talked to Hawke. I mean, he is the Alpha of the largest black bear clan, not to mention, the Alpha of all bear clans. He’s kind of busy.And he’s got to deal with Rev on top of all of that. Rev is a pain in the bear butt.So when he sent me a text asking me to meet him at a coffee shop of all places, I thought it was more than just a little strange—it was weird—more than weird.
*Hawke walks in to a Lake Charles coffee and tea house. Hawke isn’t really a caffeinated drink in a cardboard sleeve kind of guy, but I went with it. After all, how many of us get to sit with a shifter and just…chat?*
Hawke doesn’t order anything because I’ve already gotten him an espresso. He seems like an espresso guy, right?Hawke: Thanks, Lila. It’s been a while. You remembered.I shift my eyes around the room. This guy thinks I’ve forgotten him. Okay, I admit it, I forget some things about my characters sometimes. It happens. But really, forget Hawke? Please.I’d have a better time forgetting my own ass.Me: Yep. So, Alpha, what’s up?He hates when I call him Alpha. His scowl grows more defined.Hawke: Consider my buttons pushed. So, I heard it’s going to be over soon.Me: Over?Hawke: Yeah, our books. Word on the street is that you’re done with the last one. Just putting some finishing touches on it. Me: *Trying like hell not to crack up* The street? What is this street?Hawke: You know that I mean. It’s over though, right?Me: The book series is over—for now.Hawke: For now?Me: Well, there’s a chance your clan will show up in some future shifter books. And let’s be real. Just because the books end doesn’t mean your lives end. Reality shows end but people’s lives don’t. Hawke: *Now visibly disturbed* So, it was just some books to you? It’s over but our lives aren’t over?Me: If you’re insinuating that this is easy for me, Hawke, you are grossly mistaken. I’ve ended series before. It’s never easy. But this one is particularly hard. This one stings like a deep cut that years later still aches. If you think this doesn’t make me bleed…Hawke: No, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to. I mean, you made us. It must be like…Me: Like watching your kid move out of the house. Like watching them drive away on their own for the first time. Like closing the door on the Kindergarten classroom for the first time. It’s necessary. It has to be this way. But it sucks. Don’t think you can stop answering my calls though. I will come after you. I don’t care who is at the clan’s gates, I will hunt you down, Turnclaw.He raises his eyes in a challenge.Me: Don’t test me.Hawke: Would never dream of it. Those cats are up to no good again, by the way. I can smell the trouble.Me: I know. They are bobcats. That’s what they do—stir up mischief.Hawke: I hate them. They smell bad.Me: You know what’s funny? They said the same thing about you.Hawke: We are gonna miss having you around, sniffing in our business all the time. Me: I’m gonna miss y’all too. Except Rev—he’s a pain in my ass. Always has been. Hawke: But he gets the job done, you know?Me: I do. Can’t really fire the scribe.Hawke: That includes you. We will never really be rid of you, will we? Me: Nope.Hawke: *He gets up, drinks down the espresso in one gulp and then turns around. He’s walking away. But before he does, I hear him mutter.* I’m counting on it, Felix. I’m counting on it.

Enjoy,

If this feeling would ever go away. Would I be sitting next to him while we were surrounded by grandchildren and still not be able to see anything except him with that tramp at the very moment when he was supposed to be only mine?Because right now that was all I could see.“I’m not surprised. He likes to see a lot of girls.” I turn to the window before wiping away the ever-present wetness from my cheeks. “Don’t do that.” Her voice carries concern. All their voices are laden with worry. “What? Lia? Don’t tell the truth? Don’t say that he is a two-timing, three-timing, maybe even a twenty-five-timing man—slut?In the reflection of the window I can see her pull the collar of her shirt over her mouth to stop me from seeing her smile even though my back is turned,“A man slut. That’s a new one. I almost want to write that one down and tell Tarrow.”“You should. It’s a new one.”The silence that followed choked me. It was time to move on.“I’ve decided some things, Dahlia.”She got up and I could hear the squeak of clothes hangers as she filed through my outfits. “Oh yeah? Tell me.”

     "Remi I've loved you all my life. I lost you once but I won't lose you again. I'm going to stick by you  no matter what. Will you marry me?" She nodded, crying and half laughing at the same time. "You have to say it out loud. You know how we screw things up." She laughed and wiped some of her tears away. "Yes Cooper, I will marry you." I slid the ring on her finger. I got up and took her in my arms. "I thought it was too late." She whispered. "Never...I told you I would always be here."

Throwback Thursday #TBT

Today's Throwback is:
Dethroning Crown Number ten is plastered on his team jersey and on his ego. In his own mind, Crown Sterling is the shit. He dates the prettiest women, he dominates on the soccer field, he pours money out of his pockets like it’s water. Until a debilitating knee injury puts him out of commission on and off the field. He’s sent to an isolated town in Louisiana to recoup, undergo physical therapy and heal. But it’s when you’re down that you find out who your real friends are, and what they value in you, if anything at all.

All Lyra wants out of life is peace and quiet. She grew up with a regular, everyday family. When she turned sixteen, rummaging through her grandmother’s hope chest in the attic, she discovered a secret that would turn her simple, normal life into a ball of chaos that revolved around her. But while she seems to face her fears head on in her career, she lives a life that’s secure and well hidden.

A new neighbor moved in next door and he’s decided that everyone needs to listen to his rap music, shattering Lyra’s quiet existence. Enraged, she stomps to the next townhouse over and who should open the door but a man whose good looks and charming smile knock her breathless.

How good looking? Just ask him.

How charming? He’ll tell you that too.

The king must be dethroned.

And a small town girl who’s been through hell is just the one to do it.
