Dominic was actively trying to calm him down too, but unfortunately ...
Flaws and All (2012)
—Sullivan Webb “She’s what?” gasped Lawson. Angel choked on her tea and Kina’s jaw dropped to the floor following Sullivan’s revelation as they gathered around Lawson’s table for Sunday dinner the next day. The men had excused themselves to catch the game. “That’s right,” confirmed Sullivan. “S...
Without Regret (Devil's Playground #1)

Song of the Unicorns (Avalon: Web of Magic #7)
Lining up in the center of the arena, the riders tapped their horses’ necks. In one fluid movement, all the brightly splotched horses dipped their heads to the ground in a deep bow.

The Keeper of the Walls
She sat in her apartment in the large, romantic old mansion at number 2, Schwindgasse, sewing a button on one of Kira’s dresses.

Tripp in Love
Whose idea was this, she wondered as she looked into her sleep-deprived eyes. If she wasn’t careful, bags would begin to appear on a permanent basis and she’d look much older than her years. While she stood there, her gaze wandered down to her belly, and she bit back a sob. Still protruding even ...
The Tenants of 7C
She would walk through the glass doors wearing one of her carefully chosen, fashionably casual work ensembles, and look around the high-ceilinged, brick-walled interior of Stake Inc., and sigh with satisfaction.

The Knights of the Black Earth
Sun Tzu, The Art of War Christy’s Cracked Egg Restaurant was large, crowded—especially for this early in the morning. According to Xris’s research, the all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet was extremely popular, attracting large numbers of people—ideal for Xris’s purpose. When he entered, no one ev...
Iris Avenue
She stopped at a small convenience store called “Roush’s Bait Shop,” which sold more beer than bait. There was a group of old men huddled around the ancient coal stove inside, smoking and chewing the fat, just like at her dad’s service station. They all knew Hannah, of course; before she quit smo...
Where You End (2015)
Ms. K’s room looks out on the parking lot, where the seniors have written their last battle cries on their car windows in magic marker that won’t wash out in the rain: Watch out, 2014.

Spud (2015)
Briing!” Again, I really dislike waking in this manner. The shrill sound of the phone, right on a table above my head. Someone picks up from another room. Thank God. I groggily look around at the scattered bodies of teens, teen boys anyway, slowly w...
Devastate (Havoc Series Stand Alone Book 5)
Pa's voice calls out. He's wrong. I can. I'm small enough to fit in this old chest forever. I'll sneak out at night to grab food then sneak back. I have it all figured out. Except bathroom breaks. I haven't quite worked that one out yet. &nb...
Hostage Negotiation
