Hoping to have Little Conversations uploaded one week from today... Still a lot of work to do, but just thought I'd share the newly added prologue! :)

-----------

Prologue

The seagulls flocked along the sandy beach, their cries echoing along the bluffs overlooking the ocean. Tide was coming in, and the pounding surf swallowed some of their mournful resonance as fingers of water reached out to grasp their little birdie feet. With a nimble dance between the waves, they picked through the kelp strewn about on the sand below. In the distance, far out beyond the tumbling surf, a faint occasional whale spout would shoot upwards from the horizon as the pod of blue whales headed up the coast. Heavy, drab clouds somberly gave rise to the thick, salty-gray air.

So far away from Montana. Away from him.

It had been two weeks since she’d seen him. The light dancing in his hazel eyes. His heart-stopping, teasing smile. The soft caress of his voice as he breathlessly whispered her name… Dev.

Two weeks since she’d touched him. Since she’d been enveloped in his strong arms, safe and protected. Since she’d been lulled to sleep by the steady beat of his heart.

Devin once again felt the tears prick at her eyes. What the fuck was she going to do now?

The clock is ticking... Hope to have Little Conversations finished up tonight, tomorrow at the very, VERY latest and then I'll click the little button to release it to the world. OMG OMG OMG! I'm nervous and jittery and all kinds of freaking out right now. I hope so bad that you all love Ronin as much as I do!

Give me strength, Jared!!! Time to Do or Die!

Words to live by... Give me strength, Jared! :)

Abuse, be it emotional or physical, is a funny thing. Not ‘ha ha’ funny, mind you, but the way it can twist your mind is surreal. If you’ve never lived it, you may not get it. In Little Conversations, Devin’s struggle is more than just trying to get over a first love. It is finding her way out of the darkness Jake has wrapped around her. It is easy for anyone to say they would never let someone treat them that way, but there are reasons people can’t escape it. It starts out slowly, stealthily twisting and burrowing into your soul until you feel completely worthless. I’m not sure if I should be happy or sad that some readers may not get Devin’s battered psyche. I’m bummed that they may not connect with this story, yet I’m thankful that they have never suffered through an emotionally abusive situation like Devin’s.

Hi everyone! Little Conversations is up for Book of the Month on the Fifty Shades Support Group! SO GO VOTE!!! Yay! Also up are a couple of my lovely smut sisters, Adriane Leigh and Jill Patten!

Hi Everyone! Just polishing up Littler Conversations, a follow-up novella to my debut novel Little Conversations that was published a little over a year ago. I've wanted to write this extension to the story for quite some time, and it feels great to have it out there. So... if you've read Little Conversations and are interested in seeing what happened next, message in the comments. :)
