It resembled any other medical suite in any other medical facility, gurneys, tools, staff in scrubs, but unlike those other rooms, there was no sense of urgency in Trudy’s morgue. The reduced temperature preserved organic material. It preserved the odor as well. It didn’t go away despite the air purification system. Trudy’s eyes and nostrils bu...

Write What You Know

Image
Have you ever heard the old adage: WRITE WHAT YOU KNOW? Taken literally this would mean the end of fiction as we know it; and our judicial system would grind to a halt stymied with a plethora of libel suits. What a boring, gray dull world that would be. However, a writer should, less literally, write what she or he knows. [And I’m talking fiction here, ‘cause fiction is what I do. Well actually I’m a paralegal by trade, writer by wiring, so I guess I do both and the non-fiction pays better, but I don’t love it. I love the fiction. Let’s stick to that.]

Black Hats White Cats #Villains #MFRWHooks

  Black Hats, White Cats Villains are the most interesting characters He was small in every sense of the word, with a dainty build and nearly childlike features. Xavier’s grandmother—God bless her—liked to use the word “dandy” to describe effeminate men. She’d have called this man a dandy–until she looked into his eyes. They were dark and cold. Like a shark. His smile was malevolent. Like fangs hid beneath the expression. The tall man who came in beside him, oozing criminal defense lawyer, stepped away to talk to the desk sergeant, and the dandy approached their paired desks.

#MFRWHooks “Time to go, Romeo.” #TBR #MFRWAuthor #OneClick Fall to Pieces by Becky Flade Lexi woke slowly. The familiar feel of her bed, the comforting smell of her laundry detergent lingering in the sheet pressed against her face, reassured her. I’m home. I made it home. Head pounding, mouth dry and tasting like a barroom floor–or how she imagined a barroom floor would taste–and with seven-hour-old whiskey roiling in her stomach threatening to reappear, Lexi opened her eyes. A man lay snoring beside her, his head down by her feet and his well-toned, hairy body sprawled on top of the sheets. They’d lost the duvet while tangling over it in the pre-dawn hours. Lexi remembered without embarrassment picking him up at the bar and bringing him home with her, the vigorous sex she’d semi-enjoyed but couldn’t remember his name. Bending a leg, she planted a foot in his cute behind and shoved him out of bed. “Time to go, Romeo.” Lexi stifled a laugh at the distinctively female yelp as h...

Fated Always #NewRelease #RomanticSuspense #99cents #MFRWHooks

Image
A blizzard struck the northeast – hard - in the winter of 1996. I and one of my brothers took my 2-year-old daughter and the family dog (really my dad’s dog) into the backyard to play in the snow. The entire world was white and cold buried under three feet of fresh powder. With nothing in sight to lift his leg against - you guessed it - Champ peed on my leg. And I yelled at him “I’m not your friend anymore”. More than a decade later, Champ passed away and in his memory, I started writing a short story about a journalist who falls in love with a werewolf and shouts “I’m not your friend anymore” when the wolf pees on her leg. Only the short story kept growing and growing. And now 24 years after my dad’s dog peed on me, the fourth book in a series that was never meant to be more than one short story has been released. One may think I’d have dedicated FATED ALWAYS in Champ’s memory. But I did not. This book isn’t just romantic suspense with a paranormal element, it is in many ...
