#TeaserTuesday

Today is #TeaserTuesday so I'm going to share a new quote graphic along with the last full paragraph I wrote for Force of Impact. Hope you enjoy.

"I want to roll my eyes or throw my beer at him or scream into the night sky, not this dumbass time heals all wounds speech. It’s bullshit. Time doesn’t heal the wounds. Nothing heals the damn wounds. Time will just lessen the pain if that’s even damn possible. Time takes the memories that are so fresh in your mind that you can remember every detail and warps them so that details disappear which makes you think you’re healing but your not, you never will. Pain stays with you, you can’t avoid it, you can’t erase it just like the wound. The wound is there, always. It bleeds and aches but you move on anyways because you have no choice. Life doesn’t stop for your wounds. It doesn’t give you time to be a baby and bawl about it so you just put one foot in front of the other. Time heals all wounds is such a damn lie, time heals nothing. I’m six months into the time heals everything shit and it’s the same if not worse now…"

Book Review: Marrow by Tarryn Fisher

This book is definitely unique. I'm still not sure what happened. Margo Moon is a the prostitute's daughter. Her mother can be harsh and uncaring, similar to the place she calls home. Margo moves from the shy girl not wanting to be seen to a strong girl that is wanting to dish out poetic justice. As she moves through the book she starts to act on her instincts of justice. Some of the scenes will make you want to cringe as well as cheer her on. The people that receive her poetic justice are more than deserving of it but the idea of taking a life is also a hard thing to embrace. I don't blame her yet I do. It's very confusing and it makes you think about what you would do if you were in Margo's situation.  Move forward in the book some more and you find that she is suffering from a mental disorder. She has made up certain people in her life, or has she? I don't completely trust her doctor either and if you've read Mud Vein then you know why. I never could re...

Meet the characters of Pedal to the Metal: Jagger & Londynn

As I finish up the edits on Pedal to the Metal: Jagger & Londynn I thought you might enjoy seeing the pictures that inspired the characters. Enjoy! Pedal to the Metal: Jagger & Londynn follows the story of Jagger James and Londynn Parrish. Jagger is one of five brothers that have a need for speed. They are all named after 80s music stars, they all race as if their lives depend on it and their all a little bad ass. They grew up on the poorer side of town but it only made them fight harder at the races every weekend.  Jagger met a girl named Harlyn Bexton as a teenager and quickly fell in love. After high school they started a life together only to have tragedy strike. Staying in L.A. is out of the question for Jagger afterwards so he runs to Vegas only to return five years later. Londynn Parrish is your typical trust fund baby. Born and raised in one of the richest parts of L.A., attended a private academy and was given anything money could buy. However, what she wants...

She’s the dream he conjured up as a boy and never wavered from. She’s beautiful, ambitious, driven, a fellow newscaster at his Atlanta station, and the perfect asset for the life he’s a...
