A Snippet & Thought

“There’s nothing here…But off in the distance, maybe across the stream, I can hear something. Movement. Perhaps some sort of small animal.” She scrunched her eyes shut tighter, furrowing her brows in concentration, “Yes, I think it’s a small animal of some sort. Roaming. Slowly. Grazing. That’s weird; I shouldn’t be able to hear any

Justice and Mating Collides

J is for… Justice and Mating Collides, my neglected WIP novel that I haven’t touched since 3/28/14, so here’s the next (very) short installment hot off the press.  Feel free to visit their home page linked above for more. Without speaking a word Sam took the lead and found her way out of the dense

Justice and Mating Collides

 Synopsis Detective Dustin Reynolds is heading up an investigation of recent hate crimes committed against women who have been assaulted, raped, and even murdered in his precinct.  The frightened townspeople are depending on him to catch the criminal to restore safety and peace in their community. He is guarding a secret from the human society,

Dustin’s Weapons

Secured in a leather shoulder holster on the right is a Glock model 20, holding 13 rounds of ten mm, in a magnum cartridge that is more suitable for hunting than protection.  A Glock model 29 can be found tucked in either the small of his back or in the front at the waist for

“Let’s take a moonlight-stroll in the forest, while I share an ancient tale.”

  When Samantha saw the golden flecks shimmer to life in his eyes, her grin grew wider. To measure his reaction she boldly bit harder on her trapped bottom lip before releasing it to guide her tongue back and forth across the sensitive, swelling flesh.  A giggle escaped her, breaking the spell and brought Dustin

Revelations Begin (continued with more)

Out on the vast wooden deck that wrapped around the entire cabin, they sat side by side on oversized wooden chaise lounge chairs, in silence, while overlooking the forest edge. Dustin was staring off in deep thought as he contemplated how best to broach the sensitive subject. “What’s the matter?” Samantha asked casting a sideways

Tonight

Dustin pushed in close, cornering Samantha up against the wall as he relished in their combined warmth and how her hormones spiked in response to his wolf.  His frequent nearness was forcing her pup out of dormancy and it would soon reach the surface. With the full moon approaching, at the end of the week,

Quiet Mine

I’ve enjoyed the quiet sounds of the neighborhood while sitting out on the patio, getting words (+2k) on the page in between taking care of domestic responsibilities.  Now I’m running out of juice (battery, energy, and wine), so it’s time to pack it up and call it a night and get things in order for

Cheers

  Okay it’s time to crunch some numbers and get a few words in today.  Let’s see where did I leave off, hmmm?  It is kind of hard to remember… after all, I am guilty of scene hopping it’s true.  I have to flush out the scenes or polish them when they strike or I

First Encounters

Trudging along very, very slowly but making some progress when I can.  Here is another snippet from Justice and Mating Collides. *** When he reached the open doorway to his office he found the source sitting next to his desk with her back toward him. The room was infused with her scent; it was overwhelming

Pepper Spray

She quickly took a mental inventory of everything stowed in her purse that could possibly be used as a weapon, and had nothing useful.  If she whipped out a small bottle of perfume or a manicure set to ward off her stalker he would surely mock her. No, the perfume would only be an irritant.

Extravagance

Excerpt from Justice and Mating Collides. Previously posted: chapter 1, part 1 In minutes, they were climbing the steep hill, hugging tight turns on a narrow road. They drove through a small village the length of a city block, where she spotted a café, mini-market, gas station, and a couple of pubs. A mile or so

Justice and Mating Collides: Saturday Night Special (snippet)

He double-checked his list to make sure everything was covered and nothing forgotten. Satisfied with his preparations, he decided it was time to go pick up his date. He slid into the ebony leather seat of his Santorini black metallic Land Rover LR4. He pulled out his CD case, found Santana’s Supernatural, and popped it

Justice and Mating Collides (Part 1 Sampling)

He stood there frozen, in the small-darkened observation room, peering through the one-way glass into the interview room.  His eyes were riveted to the victim where she sat alone, waiting, under the fluorescent lighting.  Her petite body barely filled the chair she sat in.  Shivering in an upright fetal position, legs drawn up onto the

Justice and Mating Collides (Excerpt: Revelations)

I’m toying with the possibility of finishing Revelations, which has been taunting me since I abandoned it over two years ago… here’s an excerpt of where I left off in chapter 9.  Any and all thoughts welcomed. *** Dustin closed his eye’s and nuzzled Sam’s neck taking in her scent.  He was relieved that her
