Growing up, I was an avid reader. I even ventured into writing poetry for a while. I sucked at it, but I enjoyed it. Fast forward more years than I'll ever admit, and I finally sat down to write and publish a book. I'm proud to say I'm the only person in my family to…
Grief in Romance
If you've read my blog before, you may be aware this time of year is hard for me. (If you haven't read my blogs, you may want to start here: About Me, My Months, Moving On VS Moving Forward, and My Months PTSD Edition). This year, on May 1st, will mark 9 years. 9 years…
Little Killer
Emersyn's hand snaked out from under her comforter, blindly groping for her alarm. She had a daytime job set up for today, and since she had finished a job last night, she'd had to set it. Working on virtually no sleep wasn't ideal, but for this, she'd make an exception. Over the last few years,…
Haze by Rebecca Crunden
Haze by Rebecca Crunden is a delicious and dark novel. I enjoyed reading it, and will likely reread it in the future. The story isn't a typical story, even for a dark novel. It was different, and I appreciated that. All too often we find books that are just recycled storylines with slight differences. Haze…
Deadly Illusion by Kathy Lockheart
I adored this book. It was well written, I loved the storyline, (well, most of it), and where can I order a Damian of my own? Because hello... holy hotness. But be ready with an unopened box of tissues, because I promise you will need them all. You. Will. Ugly. Sob. (You will not cry.…
You Left Me Behind
Apparently, WordPress has made a change so pics and links cannot be added to blogs without having some weird grey bar show up in the blog in random places. What that's about, I don't know. So if anyone has an easy tech-for-dummies solution to this, please let me know in the comments. I'm beyond aggravated.…
She’s so toxic
You've seen it a million times in Amazon book blurbs. "Strong female character." "The FMC is so strong." Blah blah blah. Don't get me wrong, I love a good, strong FMC. The problem is, sometimes when an author says the FMC is strong, they mean toxic. If you Google how you can tell if a…
Shattered
Today, I'm going to do something a little different. I will give you a teaser for my novella, Shattered, in the hopes you will want to continue reading it. The background of this story is very (very) loosely based on my own life. It was the hardest part of my life, and while I have…
Moving on vs. moving forward
Grief happens to everyone. It's something you cannot escape. At some point in your life, you will experience it. Some sooner than others. I've seen it described in a multitude of ways, and they're all true. And false. Everyone will feel some of the same things, some different. We are all our own people who…
My months
After the blog I posted the other day, and a conversation with another blogger, yesterday ended up being a day of introspection. It's been 8 years and 4 months as of tomorrow. I still deal with bouts of recurring memories, guilt, anger... All of it, really. I can go days, weeks at a time without…
