Quick and easy… that’s the order of today. From the UF thing, book 3 which is in progress and yes, the fate of these books is still yet to be determined. Things are…ah, complicated with my publishing schedule for reasons that I can’t go into detail about, but…hey, I’m writing it.
Here ya go…
“That’s some serious ink on you now. I like the snake. Looks mean.”
My voice shook a little as I reached for some level of calm. “It tried to eat me once.”
“Did it now?” Goliath resumed his watchful stare, looking out over the streets like the asphalt itself might attack. Nothing slid by his notice. Not even my skinny, scared ass.
“Yeah. I chopped off its head. Figured it was fair.” Up until a few months ago, I’d still have nightmares about the snake. Whoever would have thought I’d miss those?
He nodded and said, “Sounds fair to me. I would have barbecued and had it for lunch.” He was quiet for a moment and then said, “I heard screaming come from Paulie’s today. Bad screaming if I can hear it outside her spells. You sure you have to keep doing this?”

Gazes skittered towards Toronto and then away.
Hunter’s Rise by none other than Shiloh Walker; I finally got to it!!!
And it’s great which makes me sad since it’s the last Hunter book…
Since I usually use a Kindle I am going to have to grab an ARC or you’d have to sort through a dealer’s choice of Scheherazade’s tales so here goes…
“So I went to Van Holtz with my suggestions, since he fucking owns the team, and he hit me.”
“All right. All right.” Cella pressed her hands to her eyes. “Let me deal with Reed and the rookies.”.
Not very enlightening but your other two choices were a illustrated book on 19th an early 20th century European jewelry or a technical manual on optical guidance systems for helicopters.
Sorry to hear that you are having what sounds like contract
(cont) that should read. Sorry to hear that you are having problems with your publishing schedule. My Kindle Fire decided to lock up and post when I hit the backup/delete key. I am on my 4th unit since November and I’m about to throw in the towel and give my money to the ” evil empire” and buy an iPad and go back to the Kindle Touch for reading.
I just saw your news about the new series. Congrats!
I actually just finished reading this book, but it was still sitting on my laptop.
Her skin felt fragile, like thin parchment underneath his calloused fingers. “I swear to the Goddess, I will protect you.”
