Vendetta Teaser


"Aedan always knew when something was wrong. Adele sat at the kitchen island, staring at her hands. Ashe had never seen her so defeated. "What is it?" Aedan sighed as he took a seat beside Adele.
"This." Adele pulled the letter from the drawer and handed it to Aedan. Aedan hesitated, as if he could hold off the news and keep his life as it was for a few moments longer. Finally, his fingers grasped the envelope. Ashe watched as the weight of it settled onto his father’s shoulders. Slitting the envelope open with a slightly extended claw, Aedan pulled the folded paper out and opened it."

In an effort to lay claim to Ashe, the vampires roll the dice. As a result, Ashe's life spins out of control—in ways even he couldn't imagine. Friends betray him. Those closest to him pull away. What he believes to be true turns out to be only a partial truth.
The war between Light and Dark Elemaiya ramps up in the midst of these painful revelations, and it is up to Ashe to do something about it. If he doesn't, everything could be destroyed.

Happy Sunday, everyone!

Blood Redemption Teaser


"Now," he said after he'd gotten comfortable, "tell me a story."

"What?" I pulled away to stare at him.

"Please. The sound of your voice will help me sleep. It doesn't matter what it is," he added, pulling me against him again.

"Fine," I grumped. "Have you ever heard The Legend of the Three?"

"Never heard of it," he mumbled, closing his eyes.

"Only a few of my kind know it," I said with a sigh. "It goes like this: In the beginning, the One created the Three. Those three were Wisdom, Strength and Love. The three had many others beneath them eventually, at many levels of power and ability. The Powers That Be and the Nameless Ones are at the lowest levels beneath the Three." 

"One day," I continued, "the One and the Three discovered a blight had infected their ranks. Some of those in many levels had banded together and turned against them, seeking to destroy what had been created. The Three were given the task of pursuing those destroyers and either finding a way to turn them back to the Light or devising a way to destroy them. Not an easy thing to do, since the ones they hunted were not only immortal and powerful, but were recruiting allies among the created races. The Three began to choose their armies carefully—part of their duty is to seek out and right many wrongs in their pursuit of the invasive evil. Among those who recognize them, the Three are called The Mighty. They are most commonly known as The Mighty Hand, The Mighty Heart and The Mighty Mind."

"So what happened?" he blinked sleepily at me.

"The battle is still going on," I shrugged.


Happy Wednesday!

Target teaser


"It's our God given right to bear arms and hunt any animal." Congressman Jack Howard looked quite distinguished--from the threads of gray at the temples of his carefully cut hair to the designer jeans, cowboy shirt and snakeskin boots he wore. He smiled and blew smoke from the expensive Cuban cigar Obediah Tanner offered.
 
He and Tanner stood inside Tanner's trophy room, which was elaborately decorated with various stuffed heads. In some cases, the entire, taxidermied animal adorned the spacious room. A very rare white buffalo, mounted on a stand, took up the center of Obediah's favorite room. Obediah often used the buffalo's short horns to hang his Stetsons.
 
"And you're tellin' me this girl is a unicorn? I thought those were myth." Jack Howard blew a plume of smoke toward the ceiling.
 
"You'll know the truth of it when her head hangs in your lodge," Tanner said, lifting a glass of whiskey to his lips.
