NAUGHTY OR NICE

OMG!  I am still so mad I could spit…okay so there is no way I’m doing something so gross as spitting so bad way to start out, but you get the picture – I’m as mad as a Hatter.
Jesse, that means you’re crazy not upset.
Shut up Ethan.  No one asked you.  It has been two weeks and I still have trouble talking about it but Shea insisted the Cedar Falls fans deserved to know why there isn’t going to be a New Year’s Eve story.  Since she’s right, as usual, but I can’t write about it, I’m going to let her tell you what happened.
Let her?  You do know she’s the author, right?
So what if she’s the author, Flynn.  It’s my story.
Hey!  It happened to all of us, you know.
Do you see me rolling my eyes at you, Danton?  I’m the one that stood up to that jerk.
You’re also the reason we can’t go to the New Year’s Eve Party.
Seriously Ethan, don’t you have somewhere else to be?
Are you kidding?  Who else will make sure Shea hears the truth and not your distorted version?
Distorted!  I would never.  You know what?  Never mind.  You can all stay but keep quiet so Shea can get this written and posted to the Cedar Falls fans.  Again, I apologize to all those looking forward to the New Year’s Eve story but I swear it wasn’t my fault.
Shea, go ahead and tell them.

NAUGHTY OR NICE

“You know we aren’t meeting Ryder for another three hours, right?” Danton asked.
Jesse rolled his eyes.  “Of course I know.  Why do you think we came now?”  He didn’t bother to wait for Danton to answer as the always positive Danton really didn’t have a mischievous bone in his body.  It was one of the reasons Jesse enjoyed having him around.  “If we wait until it was time to meet with Ryder we wouldn’t have time to gamble.”
“Wait.” Danton stopped walking mere steps from the front door of Cedar Falls casino, Utopia.  “I thought we were here to help Ryder come up with ideas for the New Year’s Eve Party.”
Ethan sighed heavily.  “Come on Danton, think.  Since when has Jesse volunteered for anything without an ulterior motive?”
“Hey.”  Jesse stomped his favorite black platform boots with the gold buckles going up the sides.  “That’s not…” but as he thought about it, Jesse had to admit Ethan had a point.  “Okay, that was fair, but still not cool to point out.  You’re supposed to be my best friend.”
Ethan shrugged.  “You know I call them like I see them.”
Too true.  Ethan wasn’t one to let Jesse’s actions slide without some sort of sarcastic comment.  Not that Jesse was any different but that didn’t mean he had to like it when it was directed at him.  “Come on.” Jesse waved them forward.  “It’s time to have some fun.”
“But I didn’t tell Angelo I was going to gamble,” Kit whined.  “He’s not going to be happy when he finds out.”
Jesse gave Kit an odd look.  “Then don’t tell him and you won’t have a problem.”
A look of horror crossed Kit’s face.  “Not tell him?  I can’t do that.  What if he finds out I lied to him?”
Jesse loved all his friends but sometimes he just didn’t get their obsessive need to be honest with their significant others.  “How is he going to find out?  None of us are going to say anything.  Stop worrying.”
“But I can’t lie,” Kit insisted.  “Angelo would be disappointed in me.”
“It’s not a lie if it doesn’t come up.  When he asks what you did today, just mention helping Ryder and leave out the gambling.”  When Kit didn’t look convinced, Jesse said, “I don’t tell Parker everything I do.”
“Yeah, but that’s because most of what you do could get you arrested and then he’d be an accessory after the fact,” Ethan quipped.
Jesse gave Ethan one of his best glares.   “Hardy-har-har.”
“What?” Ethan tried to pull off innocent but failed miserably.  “It’s not like it isn’t true.”
“You know what?” he said to Ethan.  “If you keep being mean to me I’m not going keep inviting you out with me.”
Ethan laughed out loud.  “And who else are you going to get to not only drive you but get into trouble with?”
Jesse turned to Flynn, Danton and Kit, who were studiously looking everywhere but at Jesse.  “Fine,” Jesse grumbled.  “Let’s just gamble.”
They made their way to the blackjack tables.  When he didn’t find his favorite dealer Yvonne, he chose a table with a dealer he didn’t know.  Maybe this one would bring him some much needed luck.  But before he sat, he heard one of his favorite security guards, Reed, say, “Look, I told you, I don’t date.”
“But that was before me,” sais a smaller man with more confidence than anyone who was being shot down should have.  The guy wore a suit in the middle of the day and had a gleam in his eye that Jesse knew spelled trouble, since he had the same look more often than not.
The difference, this guy also had crazy eyes, something Jesse also knew because of dealing with Parker’s mama.  It was obvious the guy wasn’t about to leave Reed alone, not without someone intervening.
“I’m not interested, Alcott,” Reed said before trying to walk away.
Too bad this Alcott guy wasn’t about to take no for an answer.  He grabbed onto Reed’s arm, but when he wasn’t strong enough to stop Reed, Alcott chased after him.  “There is no need to play hard to get.  When you come live with me, I’ll shower you with gifts.”
Like Jesse said – crazy.
“Come on guys.  We need to save Reed from his stalker over there.”  Trusting his friends to have his back, Jesse made his way to where Reed was once more trying to get away from Alcott.  “Hey Reed.  Thank goodness I found you.”
The relief in Reed’s eyes was profound as he looked Jesse’s way.  “Jesse.  What can I do for you?”
Alcott glared at Jesse as he sauntered up to Reed and linked his arm through Reed’s.  “I need some help at the slots.”
“Excuse me,” Alcott put his hand on Jesse’s arm, digging his nails in.
Jesse appreciated a good manicure, but Alcott’s nails were sharp enough to draw blood, which meant he might tear a hole in Jesse’s brand new long-sleeved shirt.  He’d gotten it just to wear this time of year and had spent a lot of time figuring out what saying to put on, finally deciding on, Dear Santa, I’ve been good all year.  Most of the time.  Once in a while.  Never mind, I’ll buy my own stuff.
There was no way he was going to let his shirt get ruined the first day he’d worn it.  “Unless you plan to pay for expedited shipping for a new shirt, get your paws off me before I make you.”
Alcott was more crazy than Jesse had thought, for instead of taking his hand off Jesse, he sneered and dug his fingers deeper into his arm.  “Try it and I’ll make sure you’re never seen again.  Now get lost.”
Alcott finally released Jesse’s arm but only after pushing him.  The thing was, Jesse had a hard enough time walking without falling in flat shoes.  Add in his platforms and someone shoving him, he just had no chance to stay upright.  The next thing he knew Jesse was hugging the floor like the old friend it tended to be.
“Hey, jackass.  That was my friend you pushed,” Ethan yelled as he got right up in Alcott’s face with Flynn at his back.
Danton and Kit knelt on the floor next to Jesse.  “You okay?” Danton asked.
“I’m on the floor, Danton.  Of course I’m not okay.”  Sometimes he wanted to smack some sense into his friends, but Jesse refrained or he’d end up with no friends.
“Come on.  We’ll help you up,” Kit said.
“Unless you want to end up like your friend, I suggest you get out of my face,” Alcott said as Jesse was once more standing.
Even though he was happy his friends had his back, Jesse wasn’t about to let anyone push him around and get away with it.  “You have two seconds to get out of here before I go all ninja on your ass,” Jesse threatened.
Ethan gave him an odd look.  “But you’re not a ninja.”
Jesse glared at Ethan for bringing that up.  “Yes I am.”
“No you’re not.”
“Did you see me do that?” Jesse asked.
Ethan frowned at him.  “See what?”
Jesse grinned.  “Exactly.”
Ethan just rolled his eyes.
Alcott, on the other hand stepped right up to Jesse with a haughty look that screamed Alcott thought he was so much better than Jesse.  “Reed is mine,” he declared.  “So get the fuck away from him.”
Jesse cocked his head to the side and considered what to do.  It was clear Alcott was unhinged.  So did he push him over the edge or try to reason with him.  “You really are bat shit crazy, aren’t you?”  Jesse never was good at reasoning with people.  He found it generally pointless as they didn’t listen anyway.
Maybe he should have tried.
The next thing he knew a fist was flying toward his face.  Having lots of experience hitting the floor on a daily basis, Jesse didn’t even hesitate to drop down onto his ass.  Unfortunately, Kit, who had been behind him, hadn’t realized what was happening and Alcott’s fist headed right for him.
With Kit short and Jesse in his three-inch heels, Alcott’s aim was too high to actually connect with Kit, but Alcott’s forward momentum had him pushing right into Kit, knocking him into a set of chairs that thankfully weren’t occupied, but when they toppled over, a dealer, who had been walking by, tripped falling into Kit and they both took a dive onto the floor.
As that was happening, Alcott, who hadn’t been able to stop himself from continuing forward, knocked his fist into a customer, punching him in the back of the head, causing him to slam into the poker table he was at, chips and cards flying everywhere.
Maybe if it had stopped there, all would have been fine, but Alcott was too incensed at not having hit his target and charged after Jesse, who had just managed to get back on his feet.  “Shit,” Jesse yelped when he saw an enraged Alcott, fists raised, come after him once more.
Throwing up his hands to ward off the blow had one of those hands connecting with Alcott’s chin.  Alcott’s head snapped up as he stumbled backward.  His foot caught on one of the overturned chairs sending him reeling to the side, arms flailing as he unsuccessfully tried to keep from falling.  Before going down to ground, one arm slammed into the face of another dealer, who had been trying to help his coworker untangle himself from Kit and the chairs.
Blood spurted from the man’s nose and a tooth popped out of his mouth to land at his feet just as he went down in a mass of limbs with Kit and the other dealer.  But it was when his head banged into the corner of one of the legs of a chair that he finally lost consciousness.
“Jesse Grant,” Stone said from just behind him.  “Why am I not surprised you are in the middle of this?”
Jesse whirled around to face an angry Stone.  “I didn’t do it,” he instantly said.  Then he tried switching tactics, knowing Stone would never believe he wasn’t responsible.  “I can explain.”
But Stone held up a hand to stop him.  “I don’t want to hear it.”  And he hadn’t.
In the end Jesse, Ethan, Flynn, Kit and Danton had been banned from all of Utopia, including the restaurants and hotel for 60 days.  Not even knowing Alcott had also been banned had helped Jesse deal with the harsh punishment of not being allowed to attend the New Year’s Eve Party so he could wear his beautiful outfit that he’d had specially made for the event.

The End (of the story that wasn’t my fault)

Do you see why I’m so upset?  I had Lucian design new boots.  I had to force Macon to help me draw my costume.  Then I had to beg and plead with Cora, Helen and Vera to sew it.  For weeks I’ve worked day and night getting others to make my outfit and I won’t even get to wear it all because I tried to help a friend.
Lesson learned.  No more helping others.
Don’t you mean meddling?
You were right there next to me, Ethan so you have no room to talk.
It wasn’t like you gave us a choice.  Hell, you didn’t even tell us what we were about to get involved in or that Alcott was a lunatic.
I was only trying to help a friend, Flynn.  Admit it, if I had told you, you still would have been right there with me.
Flynn gave a put upon sigh.  Fine, he admitted.   I would have had your back but I’m not sure I wouldn’t have voted to let Reed deal with Alcott on his own.  He is a security guard, former military and more than capable of handling his own mess.
Maybe.  But I wasn’t about to admit that to Flynn or the others. 
Anyway, that is my story.  Look for new books in the Cedar Falls series for more of my exploits coming soon.
They aren’t just your exploits, Jesse.
(Sigh)
Whatever Ethan.
Happy New Year everyone.  See you next year!

COVER REVEAL FOR KISS OF LEATHER

The talented Harris Channing has created this gorgeous cover for my newest Cedar Falls book, Kiss of Leather.

The Dirty Hoe

Welcome to Cedar Falls, a small North Carolina town nestled amongst the Smokey Mountains.  Where the people are friendly and the men are hot.
When Vail Sommerlin inherited a house from an estranged uncle in Cedar Falls, he jumped at the chance to move away from his nosy mother, who he loved too much to tell her to butt out of his life.  He just never dreamed that new life would include finding the man of his dreams.

When Lakota White first laid eyes on Vail Sommerlin, he knew he’d found his soulmate.  He was pretty sure his grandmother was laughing her ass off if she was looking down at him right then.  Probably even shouting, “I told you so,” over and over again.

Warning: an attempted suicide and a corrupt mayor who is bent on destroying the town once more instigates the zany characters of Cedar Falls to band around the two and help in their own unique way.

Interview with Jesse and Flynn

As I sit here waiting to interview two of the characters from the Cedar Falls series, I can’t deny being a bit nervous.  As the author who created them, I should already know what they’ll say and how they’ll act.  But with Jesse Grant and Flynn Anderson I have never really been sure what to expect from either of them.

They were notorious for going off script.  Often reinventing scenes to fit their own quirky style.  So I have no idea what’s going to happen today.

Gathering my notes, I wait for the first character, Flynn to join me.  He’d already called, warning me they were running late because Jesse couldn’t find the boots that matched his outfit.

When the pair arrived, they were giggling like teenagers.  “Sorry we’re late,” Flynn said, handing me a box from Sweet Buns.  Opening it up, I found my absolute favorite.  Zane’s famous gooey cinnamon rolls.  “I hope this makes up for any delay Jesse caused.”

Jesse scowled and stomped his foot, just like always.  “I couldn’t help it.  I had to find my boots.”  Sticking his foot out a bit, Jesse looked at me.  “They were worth it, right? I mean they totally match the shirt I’m wearing.”

The pink neon Go-Go boots most assuredly matched the bright shirt.  The effect was a little eye-watering, making it a challenge to read what was on his shirt, but I managed.  “I just found out I’m awesome...you might want to get yourself tested.”  I couldn’t help it, I laughed out loud.

Jesse’s bright pink lips curved upward as he fluttered his mascaraed lashes.  “Oh good, you have a sense of humor.  I have to admit, I was worried you would be a stick in the mud.”

That surprised me.  “Oh?  Why would you think that?  I did create you after all.”

Jesse shrugged.  “Yeah, but you also created Mayor Donald Murphy and Betty Sue.  Neither of them have a sense of humor.  There are times I’m not even sure they have a pulse.  So there was no telling what type of person you were.”

“Look,” Flynn interrupted.  “As fun as this is, do you think we could get to the interviews?  Jax doesn’t like it when I’m gone more than short time.”

“Oh, uhm, sure,” I say.

It had been decided they would interview separately and Flynn would go first.  After making sure Jesse was comfortable, I led Flynn into another room to start the interview.

Shea:  First of all, I’d like to thank you for agreeing to meet with me.  I think it’s important for the readers to learn a little more about the characters they read about.

Flynn: I’m happy to do it.

Shea:  Let’s get started then, shall we? Flynn nods his agreement.  Your story was one of the saddest I had written, especially when it delved into your struggle with dealing with your twin, Freesia’s death.  Did telling your story help to cope with that loss?

Flynn:  Tears instantly sprang to Flynn’s eyes.  Wow, you sure go for the hard hitting questions.

Shea:  I feel a bit guilty for causing Flynn to be so emotional.  If you want, we can come back to that question later.

Flynn:  No.  He shakes his head.  If we need to talk about it, I’d rather get it out of the way.  We sit there in silence for a minute while Flynn collects his thoughts.  For the most part, yes, it helped.  Freesia’s death had eaten away at me for so long, there were times I felt like I was drowning in it.  Up until the book, I was never allowed to talk about to allow me to get out all the anger, resentment and guilt I had inside of me.  By telling my story, I got to do that and the crushing weight of her death became a little lighter.  Flynn gave a small smile.  Well, that and Jax.  He has helped me the most.

Shea:  Oh?  In what way?

Flynn:  A blush spread out over Flynn’s face.  Mostly with his love and support, but he also introduced me to BDSM.  Now, whenever I get overwhelmed, we head to the playroom in the basement and he helps me to get the poison that lives within me out.  With him, I’m safe to yell, scream, kick, swear...one shoulder lifted up in a half shrug.  Whatever I need, he provides.  After, when I’ve finally released the tormented feelings inside of me, he holds me, takes care of me...that small smile grows...but most importantly, he loves me.

Shea:  That’s sweet.  I’m really glad you found someone who takes such good care of you.  Flynn beamed.  When your story ended, your mother was placed in a mental facility.  How is she doing?

Flynn:  That smile he’d worn a few moments ago disappeared.  Better.  She is out of the facility and has managed to find a job and pay the bills.  She still refuses to speak to me.  I’m not sure we’ll ever have a good relationship, but at least she’s now able to leave the house and get on with her life.

Shea:  I’m glad she is somewhat better.  At the same time, I’m sorry to hear that she won’t talk to you.  I hope one day, she’ll be able to understand Freesia’s death wasn’t your fault.

Flynn didn’t reponds so I went on to the next question.

Shea:  Let’s get off the sadder topics.  I understand there is some good news you and Jesse have to tell me today.

Flynn: That smile was back and bigger than ever.  There is.  Jax and I are getting married.

Shea:  Congratulations.  When is the big day?

Flynn: In just a few days.

Shea:  Did Jax propose or did you?

Flynn:  He gave me a huge, “cat that ate the canary,” grin.  You’ll have to read the book to find out.

Shea:  I laughed.  Good point.  I want to thank you for taking the time to talk with me.  Congratulations on your wedding, I wish you and Jax all the best.

Flynn:  Thank you.  It was my pleasure to talk with you, Shea.

While I waited for Flynn to send Jesse in, I wondered if I would be getting an invitation to the nuptials. Maybe I should have asked.

Shea:  Smiling, I stood up to give Jesse a hug when he entered the room.  Thank you so much for agreeing to talk with me.  I get a lot of questions about you and the fans will be excited to hear what you have to say.

Jesse:  I’m happy to do it, especially since I’ve always wanted to meet you.

Shea:  Oh?  I’m flattered that you have.  May I ask why?

Jesse:  Anyone that put up with my quirky ways without batting an eye, is someone worth meeting.  Jesse chuckled.  Like that Bigfoot hunt I wanted to go on.  You just wrote it and didn’t even question whether or not it was a good idea.

Shea:  Chuckling.  Well, when it comes to you, I find it best to just go with the flow.  Arguing the sanity of your crazy ideas only leaves me with a headache.

Jesse:  See?  That’s why we make such a good team.

Shea:  I guess we do.  So tell me, how has life been for you now that you managed to get Parker to admit his feelings for you?

Jesse:  A cheesy, love struck grin appeared.  Great.  No. More than great.  Fantastic, superb, phenomenal.  There aren’t enough adjectives to express how much I enjoy waking up beside him every morning.  Although, I could live without his snoring.

Shea:  Parker snores?

Jesse:  Like he’s a chainsaw cutting down the forest.

Shea:  Laughs.  I imagine you don’t get much sleep.

Jesse:  Sleep?  What’s that?  Since Chastity gave birth to Lily sleep has been harder to find than Bigfoot.

Shea:  Speaking of them, how are Lily and Chastity?

Jesse: Great.  There was a glow of happiness in his eyes as he talked about Lily.  I never knew having a kid was so much work, but having Lily in my life is worth it.  No matter how bad my day is, she always smiles when she sees and all the bad stuff just melts away.  As for Chastity, she’s still trying to figure things out.  She’s started college classes but I’m not sure she’s made up her mind about what she wants to do.

Shea:  I’m sure she’ll figure it out eventually.  Flynn just informed me that he and Jax are getting married.  What about you and Parker?  Are you thinking about getting hitched?

Jesse:  His whole face lit up.  Actually Parker and I are also getting married.  There will be nine couples Tying the Knot on Saturday.  It will be an event to remember, unlike the bachelor party, which we’re still fuzzy on.

Shea:  Bachelor party?  Did you do something special?

Jesse:  Jesse’s head cocked to the side as he gave me a funny look.  You wrote the book.  Don’t you already know what happened?

Shea:  Good point.  But the reader’s don’t.

Jesse:  Well than they should read the book to find out.  I may not remember all the details, but it was just as big as the wedding is going to be.

Shea:  What about the wedding?  Can you give us any details?

Jesse:  Laughs once more.  All I can tell you is, you don’t want to miss it.

Shea:  Realizing I wasn’t going to get any more details, I figured it was time to wrap things up.  I want to thank you for coming and answering my questions.  I happy that you and Parker have gotten your happily ever after.

Jesse:  Your welcome, Shea.  It was great meeting you.  He hands me an envelope with my name on it.  This is your invitation to the big day.  I hope you can come.  I know the other guys would love to meet you as well.  Feel free to bring whoever you want with you.


Shea:  To my readers.  You heard the man.  You’re all invited to the Cedar Falls event of the year.  I’ll meet you there.

Let's have some fun!


Nothing is ever easy for Evan Ainsley.  Even when he finds his mate, Shane Sommers, instead of falling in love, Shane pushes him away.  Sick and tired of people leaving him, Evan refuses to give Shane a chance to explain when his mate finally gets his head out of his ass and begs for forgiveness.
But fate has a way of intervening.  This time it’s in the form of nuclear weapons in the hands of the enemy.  As the couple faces certain death, they both realize, nearly too late, the importance of facing life head on and not hiding behind hurt feelings.  Forgiveness isn’t always easy but Evan finds it’s better than never knowing the sheer pleasure of being in his mate’s arms.
Racing against the clock, the couple must find a way to stop the enemy before their worlds are destroyed, even if it means they have to sacrifice themselves to do it.  

SMEXY EXCERPT: 

The moment the door shut, Slash found his arms filled with his mate. Their mouths fused. As big as Slash was, it was nothing for him to wrap his arms around Evan and carry him to the bedroom.
They made it just inside before Slash needed to see his mate naked. If their clothes ripped in his haste, who could blame him? Seeing Evan’s creamy skin was an experience Slash wasn’t willing to wait for.
When he went to lean down to kiss Evan again, his mate stopped him. “Wait. I was wondering…” His mate looked away as if nervous to say what was on his mind.
Slash hoped one day Evan would be comfortable enough to tell him anything, but he knew it would take some time. With his mate’s parents abandoning him and Slash rejecting him, Evan was bound to wonder if he said something wrong, Slash would leave him again.
“Hey.” He tilted Evan’s chin up until their eyes met. “Whatever it is, you can tell me.”
A soft blush crossed Evan’s cheeks. Slash had to admit he was surprised, Evan never seemed the type to be embarrassed, like ever. If he wasn’t seeing it with his own eyes, Slash wouldn’t have believed it.
Then, in true Evan fashion, his mate stated it baldly. “Can I fuck you?”
Slash almost swallowed his tongue. The blood drained from his head and turned his cock rock hard in less time than it took his heart to beat. Drunk with lust, Slash snagged his pants off the floor and grabbed the single-use lube he always kept in his pocket.
Without a word, because who could speak with the image of Evan’s cock in his ass going through his mind, Slash thrust the packet into his mate’s hand and spun around to face the wall. With his ass out, he said, “I’m ready, wildcat.”
