MBB is so excited to have another new way to show our love and support to indie authors and their work. We came up with this WIP Wednesday to help bring a spotlight to upcoming works for some great authors. We are happy to have E.E. Byrnes help us kick this new segment off. After telling Winnie where I planned to go but not my reason for it, I left, carrying the small luggage case she had given me. Inside […]
So many things are going on all around me at the moment. School is now back in. Thank heavens for most lol. Both of my boys are charter school kids so they are home anyways, which has kinda messed up my daily work flow. So now I’m having to work out a new schedule for me. Joe & I had to cancel going to Wanderlust in San Antonio this year. Which broke our hearts. We absolutely love Wanderlust. It […]
“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” a voice rumbles back to me at the same time as the snick of a gun echoes. A feeling of disbelief and shock and something else, which I can’t quite name, shivers down my spine at the sound of the voice. It’s a voice I recognise, but one I’ve not heard in almost eleven years. Just as I’m wondering if he’s here too and at what point my mouth will form some […]
“Are you telling me Killian Cross is on his way here right now?” She bites her lip and nods reluctantly. “Exactly how many times has Cross asked you out?” I ask. She wrings her hands together. “Twice. And it’s been months. We’re just good friends, not that it’s any of your business.” I see red. “Not my fucking business? Are you high? Everything about you is my business.” She backs up but it’s too late. In two steps I’m on […]
“This tie is something a mentor taught me. It’s pretty, it’s inescapable, and it’s safe. It won’t cut off your circulation. It’s tight enough where you feel it but loose enough it won’t cause any long-term issues. If you notice, baby girl, I’ve tied this knot here on the bottom and not the top.” She nodded, unsure why he was pointing it out. “If we were playing and you were being a brat and tried to escape from Daddy’s ties […]
Holy crumbs, I have goosebumps everywhere. Kade’s introductory speech punches me in the gut and fills me with so many feels that I’m struggling to swallow right now. I even caught Kevin wiping under his eye a moment ago. Ever since I saw the “Lack of Evidence” video, I haven’t been able to get LP-45 out of my mind, so the day after our dinner at the diner, I told Kevin I was thinking of collaborating with them and asked […]
RYKER I am back in town near the bar district, leaving that sorry bastard where he belongs. I watch the humans interact and enjoy the company of one another. Mindlessly, I twirl her ring around my finger. I took it before I left the restaurant so that they would find no evidence of her presence there. It was a beautiful ring, a cocky gesture on his part, the diamond was obnoxiously huge and I have no doubt it looked ridiculous […]
I watch as the afternoon sun hits the water just right, creating the perfect moment in time. Lifting my camera, I focus the lens and take the shot, plus several more. Sunsets are my favorite time of the day to capture on film. There’s something inspiring about the colors and beauty that comes from a perfectly captured sunset, especially on the water. I adjust my footing, kneeling to find the perfect shot and adjust my lens again. Using my camera […]
Prologue Do you have a friend that makes you smile on the darkest of days? I do! I have my best friend, Ellie. If you are lucky enough to have a best friend, what would you do for them? Would you stand up for them? Fight the last person on Earth for them? Die for them, or give them your kidney? Said yes so far? Surely your love for your friend is wonderful… but what if I asked: Would you […]
The hallway to the office is a short distance away, and I make my way toward it. The loudness of the bar fades away the closer I get to the office. Now where is that box? Scanning the shelf, I don’t see it anywhere. I squeeze behind the door, bumping it slightly as I reach up to look at the boxes higher on the shelf. There. Of course, it’s on the top one. I really need to get some kind […]
