#SixSentenceSunday with Unrequited Mate

By -
Since TL and I are knee deep in writing Bearing It All, our third book in our TSU series. I thought today I'd share six sentences from Unrequited Mate, the book which started it all. It was my first contracted book, although not first published. Hayden and Nico will always have a special place in my heart because of that. 

Hayden Raferty, left behind her entire family and all her friends to get away from her mate, Nico Lopez. In a single night, he crushed her hopes and dreams of finding true love. Now, years later, Hayden has decided to move on and start over. 

Nico Lopez knows he screwed up, but letting his mate walk away isn’t in his plans. It's time to make his move. With a little help from 555-ROAR, Nico obtains a spot in the Greek Shifter Games and is determined to show his mate there isn’t another male worthy of her. If has to put his body on the line to prove it, so be it.
“Little wolf,” he crooned. So lost in thought, she hadn’t seen him scale the wall and position himself in front of her.

“I’m not your little wolf anymore, Nico.” She looked everywhere but at him. “You’re also not very original.”

“Oh, you still are. I am going to prove it.” He took her hand in his and kissed her knuckles, ignoring her comment. “Make sure you’re watching me out there.” He gave her a cocky grin then jumped back down and got into line.

“He’s dreamy,” Emma sighed.

“Sure, in a mangy mutt sort of way,” Hayden agreed.

“He’s not mangy at all,” Terri sighed.

Hayden’s lip curled. “Sure.”

“Don’t poke the wolf,” Zoe piped up. “That guy is her mate. Hands off. Eyes off.”

“Sorry,” Emma murmured. “I didn’t know.”

Hayden’s shoulders sagged. She hated being a raging bitch. “Don’t worry about it. He’s not really mine. Everyone keeps saying he is, but it’s not true.” The horn blew again, giving her an out on the conversation. “I guess we should pay attention now.”

Six Sentence Sunday with Kalkin

They say things happen for a reason. I hope this is true! In the middle of April, Kalkin, which had been released January 9th, was pulled from all book retailers because of a situation out of our control with our publisher. We asked and got our rights back on it. It was, one of the hardest decisions TL and I have ever made. It was, in my mind still selling well. For the most part, TL and I have remained quiet as to why's and what's on why it happened. Simply stating it was a situation out of our control. And this is true. But see I don't think I'm going to do that anymore. TL and I did nothing wrong. We followed the rules and did everything our contract requested of us. Here is the truth though, dear reader, we're not even sure if we will get paid. It's all up in the air, and without prompting, the publisher has yet to reach out to us. There are also a few other extenuating circumstances that puts us into an even tougher position. Ones that could affect

Six Sentence Sunday with Rule Breaker

This week's #SixSentenceSunday is from Rule Breaker. The first book in our R.O.O.T series. It's an action-adventure Military Romance novel. We had a fun researching and writing this first book. We hope at some point this year to at least start writing the second book in the series. Our hero, Asher Rainer was a blast to write for the simple fact, he has no filter. He says whatever is currently floating around in his head. TL and I knew we'd done it right when our editor informed us she'd never read a character as blunt as Asher. If you haven't had a chance to get Rule Breaker, now is your chance, since it's currently on sale on Amazon only for 1.99.   Rule Breaker Amazon buy link. See below for my contribution for today's Six Sentence Sunday. “I want a lawyer,” he announced as he picked himself up off the ground and slumped back on the bed. Asher would have the damn bed, chair, and table removed from the room when he was done talking to the jack

It's been a crazy week. The indie world was set on its ear when a well-known writer decided to TM a word often used in Romance/Erotica. I refuse ...I mean I absolutely refuse to say the author's name. I simply refer to her as you know who or the one who shall not be named. I consider her Voldemort to be honest. It's just easier for me. I've been reading everything that's been posted, both sides. TL has also been keeping me in the loop when new stuff goes down and I'm not around. Listen, I understand wanting to TM your name, your series name. I get it. I  just don't get or like how it's been done. It smells of bullying and there just has to be a better way. There just has to be . And I believe, as in this is my opinion, it's going to end badly. There is not much I can do. TL and I don't have a horse in this race, but we're going to support those who do, in any way we can. Either by sharing books they've had to change the tit
