On His List Teaser

Yay! A teaser!!! From On His List!   Remy marked up the list she was given…which nearly broke Owen’s brain, so she’s kept it tucked away so it doesn’t bother him. Only it’s bothering him in a whole new way.   ~ When they’d gotten back in the car, he asked, “Where are we going next?” Shoot. She’d forgotten to […]

Teaser from Unmatched Grace

    I hadn’t done a teaser from “Unmatched Grace” yet. It’s the second novella in A Little Moon Madness.   “Grace, you’re not afraid of me, are you?” “No.” She should be. She wasn’t. A half-smile appeared—along with what looked like relief. “Good. I’m not using any manipulation either.” Grace raised her eyebrows. “I can feel them. You’re using […]
