Hi guys!
My rewrites on Bitter Confessions have been put on hold due to an emergency move back to the mainland. Throughout the holidays, I mentioned an ongoing family issue and it's resulted in me having to move back to the West Coast. I'm actually taking my mom with me so she can recover f...

His head jerked up. “You’re a virgin?”
Her eyes were closed, and she couldn’t stop the tear that slid out of the corner of her eye.

“You didn’t.”
She was forced to stop at a crosswalk. She looked both ways down the empty streets and took a step forward to cross when he grabbed her arm.
“Safety,” he warned.
I freaking love the beginning of a new year. I'm one of those annoying people who try to plan out their year. Every year it spectacularly goes haywire, but I don't mind it one bit. I'd rather have a plan that unravels than none at all. And I always find that I manage to cross off a few things on ...

After their impromptu coffee meet, they’d gone to dinner five times. It was always spur of the moment, with Roth calling to say he was in the area and if she wanted to get a bite to eat. She thought the first time was a fluke, that she wouldn’t continue to feel ...

“You have a profound effect on him.”
She ground her teeth to hold her tongue. She didn’t want a lecture on how great and honorable Roth was. No one knew the terms of their agreement or the intimate details of their relationship. No one would believe how devious he was, how cunning, or...
