Dear Reader,

The Night That Changed Everything

“Maybe we should try to get them back in daycare?” came the absently murmured words that had Trevor biting back a sigh as he opened his eyes to find his wife worrying her bottom lip between her teeth as she stared down at the iPad in her hands. “The boys are fine, sweetheart,” Trevor assured her as he reached over and plucked the iPad out of her hands and placed it on his nightstand before she could stress herself out over the boys since he was doing that enough for both of them. “They stopped talking,” Zoe mumbled sadly as Trevor… Read More

Excerpt from Misunderstood and Chapter 10 of the Pregnancy Chronicles

“Definitely a mistake,” Haley said, slowly exhaling as she closed her eyes and tightened her grip on the bathroom counter while she waited for what she was really hoping was just Braxton Hicks to finish.

When the pain finally stopped, she released a shuddering sigh, moved to stand up only to decide against it and continue staring at the bathroom floor. Jason was definitely going to kill her, she thought, reaching up to push her glasses back up her nose as she stood there, debating her options.

She could continue standing there, hunched over while she waited for the next contraction… Read More

The good news was that she probably didn’t have to worry about writing that book report anymore, Mikey thought as she took in the large man glaring down at her.

“Start talking,” Uncle Trevor said, not really looking all that happy to find her curled up in his son’s bed, which was understandable since she wasn’t exactly supposed to be here.

“I missed you?” she said with a hopeful smile only to add, “so much,” when he narrowed his eyes on her.

“What did we talk about, Mikey?” he asked, sighing heavily as he… Read More

An Excerpt from Furious: An Anger Management Novel

“I’m not drunk,” Sloane mumbled sleepily as Chase pulled her onto his lap before she fell on her adorable ass.

“No, no, of course, you’re not,” Chase said, chuckling when she cracked one eye open to glare up at him as her brother reached past them and opened the front door for him.

“Do you need help?” Tristan asked as Sloane curled up on Chase’s lap and laid her head against his chest with another mumbled, “I’m not drunk.”

“No, I’ve got the little drunk,” Chase said since she’d probably be passed out in a matter of… Read More

“I’m not going to hurt you,” Ash said softly as he took a step closer to her, refusing to let her go this time.

As Tomi continued to turn her head, searching for something, he ran his eyes over her and couldn’t help but frown. She was thinner than the last time he saw her, too thin, and her clothes were old, torn, and threadbare. She looked nothing like the spoiled girl he knew six years ago.

“What the hell happened to you?” he snapped before he could stop himself.

“You know what happened,… Read More

How It All Began….Mikey and Sebastian

Oh, she was going to be in so much trouble, Mikey thought as she stood there, considering her options. She should pick the older one, but…

He probably wouldn’t want to go with them since he seemed to really enjoy tormenting his father. That left the twins, Mikey realized as she glanced back at the bunkbed in the corner, debating which one that she was going to drag with her.

There was Jonathan, she thought as she took in the twin passed out on the bottom bunk. He was funny, loved baseball, and would probably… Read More

Excerpt from Finally: A Neighbor from Hell

Dear, Reader, 

I just realized that I never shared an excerpt of Finally here. At least, I couldn't find it. So, I'm going to post one here, because I like readers to have a better idea of what the book is about before they hit click just in case it's not really their cup of tea. 

Finally is set for an April 28th. release, which is tomorrow. I hope you enjoy Devin and Charlie's book as much as I enjoyed writing it :)

R.L.
