God willing and the creek don’t rise, I’m aiming to wrap this book up and have it ready for submission by December. That would be a pretty sweet Christmas present to myself, don’t you think? To know I’d finished another book? There is no greater relief. I’m still in the ohgodohgodohgod phase with this book.
Seeing Evermine’s cover this week was a good push when I needed it, though. 😉
After backing her against a stall, he lowered his head and waited for the crowd to take notice. They did, and shouts arose until she reached up and twined tentative fingers into his hair. He waited for common sense to kick in or an alternative to present itself, but her chin shot up and her lips parted sweet as any dream. He should have backed off, but the race fired hot in his blood. Marking her was a bad idea, a very bad idea. One he would regret any minute now.

Hailey writes about questionable applications of otherwise perfectly good magic, the transformative power of love, the family you choose for yourself, and blowing stuff up. Not necessarily all at once. That could get messy.

Now, using the crowd’s pressure wasn’t really fair, but I kinda like that he’ll use what’s available to get what he wants. Also love that moment of regret that he’s ignoring. Great six!
Gem Sivad says
Don’t you just love it when you have to do something and ignore common sense to do it. Great six.
