Originally appeared in the print anthology Holidays Are Hell.
New York Times bestselling author Vicki Pettersson brings a former superhero—an elite Zodiac warrior—back to the mortal world for a Thanksgiving reunion with her equally hated and beloved enemy, to do battle for the lives of her imperiled children.
Vicki Pettersson is a NYT and USA Today bestselling author of ten novels, most set in her hometown of Las Vegas. Though she'll ever consider that glittering dustbowl home, she now divides her time between Vegas and Dallas,Texas, where she's learning to like good Tex-Mex (easy) and the Dallas Cowboys (easier than you'd think).
Her most recent release is SWERVE, aptly titled as it's both a chase book and a hard departure from her fantasy work. A pure adrenaline, white-knucked thriller, Swerve releases on July 7, 2015 -- perfect for the novel's Fourth of July setting. If you're looking for a romance with little to no violence ... this is not your novel. If, as with her other work, you're looking for a strong female protagonist who comes out swinging when pushed into a corner, then perhaps you can connect. Welcome!
Love short stories by my fav authors! Especially when it has to deal with characters from their books that the other characters know but we have no clue what they are like. Zoe Archer is one kick ass woman and mother for Jo and Olivia. I so hope she shows up in the later books with her ......

Liked the fact that you can get a sense more of what Zoe is as a mother and what she has done and what she has sacrificed as a person and a superhero and even in her personal life for the zodiac, for the sake of her children and to get revenge on the only person standing in the way of that happiness that she could ever have. She is a driven person and in a way exactly like Warren. Unfortunately, I think that is what has driven him so much to hate her child in the future and push her so much.
