The Night That Changed Everything

  • May 30, 2022
  • No Comments
“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 Dark Light, the first Fire & Brimstone Novel

“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

Excerpt from Devastated: An Anger Management Novel

“Oh, my god, please make it stop,” Kylie muttered with a tragic sigh as her cell phone continued to chime.

She wanted to cry.

She really did, but crying would require energy that she didn’t have right now. Besides, she was going to need all her energy to drag herself out of bed and see what the horrible man wanted.

Why did she have to sign those papers?

Damn Big Daddy and his love of…

Well, she wasn’t exactly sure what he’d been on when he’d burned the apartment building down, but whatever it was she cursed it for putting her in this situation.… Read More

“Let me out!” the small woman that should have run when she had the chance said as she continued to pound on the pantry door.

“No,” he said even as he yanked the chair away from where he’d had it wedged beneath the doorknob and opened the door, needing to see with his own eyes that she was really unharmed. She opened her mouth to say something else, but he was already shutting the door and shoving the chair back in place to keep her from getting herself in more trouble.

“We need to leave, Trace,” she said, sounding frustrated as… Read More

Delectable is Almost Here

  • July 30, 2017

“Mom?” Mikey said loudly when it should have been more than obvious that this was a conversation that required whispering.

“Is he still here?” Kasey whispered through the keyhole, telling herself that it was perfectly normal for a grown woman to hide in her bedroom for two hours in order to avoid the man that had called her delectable.

“Who? Reese?” Mikey asked loudly, making Kasey wonder where she’d gone wrong.

“Yes! Reese!” she whispered harshly, shifting to get more comfortable, but after two hours of kneeling on the thin rug she was running out of positions.

“He’s in the kitchen fixing the… Read More

From Delectable: A Neighbor from Hell

“Good morning, Yummy,” she said, absently looking over her shoulder at something in the kitchen before returning her gaze to him. “Sleeping in today, are we?”

“What time is it?” he asked with a frown as he glanced at the windows and noted that the sun was barely up.

“A little after six,” the crazed woman that had broken into the house said with a bored sigh as she pushed away from the couch.

“What the hell are you doing here?” he asked, rubbing his hands down his face as he wondered if this was a dream… Read More
