I awakened very slowly and dreamily, realizing I was still in John's arms, just like I had been when we went to sleep. We hadn't moved at all during the night. He felt wonderfully warm. I didn't really want to be awake, but it felt so cozy and perfect that I didn't want to go back to sleep and miss out on enjoying it. I opened my eyes just a little and could...
Prologue Sylvia dug her feet into the sand, trying to push herself up far enough under the burning sheet of metal that she wouldn't be seen. The air was on fire. The sky was scorched, soot-black and snowing bits of gray ash that collected here and there in powdery drifts. Her broken right arm still clutched the grip of a ruined revolver, but she couldn't fo...
I've always been smart – except when it comes to matters of the heart. As early as third grade I remember my teacher, Mrs. Grimes, telling me "Amy, honey, there is no reason to cry over Brad Hamilton not liking you. Little boys can be jerks. You're the smartest kid in class – use your brain, not your emotion." I tried to listen to her advice – I guess not ve...
Chapter 8: Afterward "Why didn't you call me when you heard the news about Phylicity?" I yelled at Liam Roberts, CEO and President of Roberts Electronics. Next to Ted Brooks III, Liam is perhaps one of my closer acquaintances ... almost nearly even a friend, although he's technically my boss and I'm about five years older than he is. He's still on the frie...
A/N. So normally I would do more research while writing a story but since this is online and I'm not writing it as a midterm (smiles), I've been more lax. I apologize in advance if something is way off base or inaccurate. The prologue is a backdrop with not much dialogue. It picks up though. I promise. ***** Light Heart "Yes mother," Light Heart repeat...
"Morning, Lei." Tanalei stared at her niece. "What?" "You're up. At six-thirty am. On a Friday." Gail giggled. "We're goin' to the amusement park and maybe the water park today." She hugged the eighteen-year-old. "Do I need to stop and get a box of condoms today?" she whispered in her ear. "Lei!" the girl gasped. "Niall has his own." "Birth control?" S...

As we rode I sat and looked at Rachel's face. In her sleep I could see the turmoil evident in her dreams. I stroked her back and instantly the look on her face became one of total relaxation. I held her and thought what that meant for me... to me. Ray turned and looked at her and said, "How could anyone hurt someone that beautiful?" I looked at him, my fa...
September 2015 "I'm gonna fuckin' kill you, Harry," Tanalei said into her phone. "What is it?" he said worriedly. "Can you tell me why I'm starin' at a home pregnancy test and it's showin' two pink lines?" Silence. "Are you sure?" She took a picture and sent it. "Does this fuckin' look like I'm sure!" "I thought you were going back on the shot?" "My p...
