Fiction by Sydney Katt
Prologue
Sunday, October 12
You never forget the first time, or so they say – whoever they are. Through the course of a lifetime you may have dozens of partners, but the first one is always special. They show you the ropes and teach you everything you need to know; they watch your back. In short, your first partner is the person who keeps you from getting your ass killed. [Read more...]
When bombs are in play, hearts shouldn’t be.

When FBI Special Agent Jackson Caldwell is sent to Dallas to thwart a vague terrorist plot against DFW International Airport, he assumes it’s either a hoax or a test to determine if he’s ready to get out from behind the desk and back into the field. Either way, he wants to close the case quickly and get back to DC. Too bad his new partner is more interested in chasing skirts than chasing bad guys…
Chad Blackstone is a man teetering on the edge of genius and madness. For far too long he’s been the punchline in life’s jokes, but each step of his plan begins falling into place, bringing power and respect finally within his reach. No one can stop him now. Nothing will stand in his way. Nothing.
Jenna Monroe is a woman whose past is shrouded in mystery. Her mundane life marches forward like clockwork until the condo across the hall is rented to a man with dangerous good looks and deadly secrets. As the two men in her life play out a lethal game of chess, is she just a hapless pawn?
Or is she pulling all the strings?
The Freelancer
Part 1 in the Under Cover Series
Rated NC-17
Hey y’all. Thanks for coming to visit me on Your Littlest Sin. I thought I’d take a moment to tell you about the first novel that will be made available to you here.
Originally, the plan was to release this first into paperback format. That was the plan until about two days ago when I decided I was a complete moron. Don’t worry, I have these moments quite a bit. I’m just glad I wasn’t fighting with myself about it out loud.
You see, The Freelancer is the first novel I ever wrote (and didn’t delete because I thought it sucked). It occurred to me that the writing in this novel isn’t exactly to the same level as my more current work which seems to bother me to no end. So I have two choices: spend forever rewriting it or accept the fact that I’ll never have it reach the level of perfection I seek and put it out there already.
So I choose the latter.
While I hope you enjoy The Freelancer – obviously, right? – I acknowledge there may be some grammar issues or typos from time to time. It seems I’ve been with this particular manuscript for too long to be effective in my edits any longer. If you see something, feel free to point it out. As long as you don’t start screaming at me about a misplaced modifier then we’re good. 
Enjoy!

Hello and welcome to Your Littlest Sin. Some of you may already know exactly what this site is all about because you received an invitation from a different site. Others may have run across me purely by accident. Regardless, you may well be wondering what an online fiction site is doing with a name like Your Littlest Sin.
Well, you could ask my best friend, Star, but I’ll be nice and answer that so as not to inundate her inbox with the same question over and over – though that would be sort of fun for me…
When I was deciding on a name for the site, I knew I wanted more than just jnicolewhitten.com for the actual fiction I’d be posting. (jnicolewhitten.com is, however, on the way since every author really needs to have their own website to talk about how awesome they are, right?) More than wanting something beyond my name, I wanted something that would represent my body of work in an unusual way. As I do with virtually everything I’m trying to decide, I tossed the question over to Star.
So, yes, Your Littlest Sin is really her doing; however, she’s going to comment and say that if I hadn’t gotten her hooked on “The Feel Good Drag” by Anberlin then she wouldn’t have had that line stuck in her head while doing laundry in the first place. *shrugs* It doesn’t matter who thought it up, really; it matters that the name is perfect for my purposes.
Consider the word sin. What comes to your mind? Murder? Sex? Crime?
Evil?
All these things can be found in my writing to varying degrees. All the little sins – and the big ones – are the spice that make it worth reading. Or at least, that’s my hope.
But why Your Littlest Sin? Simple. Don’t we all have other things beyond reading tugging at our limited time? When I consider all I should be doing when a book is instead in my hands I can usually find a way to rationalize it in such a way that it’s more than just my own selfishness. Perhaps reading is my littlest sin…but it would be awesome if it were the biggest. 
So, I do hope you’ll enjoy your time spent here reading about my characters while they engage in all their little sins. Look at it this way, it’s better than going out there and committing them for yourself, isn’t it?
