It was another day of filler passing for news in the Wall Street Journal.  How sad that nothing of note was going on in the financial world except for the government buying back junk cars from people.  Apparently, the economic world was a small one these days.

Then again, the world was a smaller place than it used to be, Nick Erickson mused while taking a sip of his iced tea.  Even still, it was really saying something when his school paper had more substance than the rags so many relied on for their news.  Maybe he should…

“Omigosh!  Nick!  I am so glad I found you because I’m going to die!” Read more »

Trace Braedon continued to stare at the spot on his wall while dialing.  Jake had better have one hell of an explanation for this.  It was one thing to use his place to bang random chicks, that was just good sense, but… Read more »

Trinity Erickson felt her way through the darkened corridors of the abandoned building, apprehensive.  It was many years since she was last summoned by the most exalted member of the Daughters of Isis.  Things hadn’t gone well then; probably wouldn’t go well now.

Beside her, Aaron squeezed her hand and she could hear his voice inside her head.  It’s okay, sweetheart.  She only has power over you if you let her. Read more »

Hey y’all.  Just wanted to interrupt the flow of chapters to thank everyone for reading.  (Yep, I know you’re here even if you aren’t saying anything…well, not “you” specifically, but someone.)  Anyway.  Your continued support of my writing endeavor is very much appreciated!

Now onto some quick information on both of the books currently available on this site…

Ritual Awakening (Part 1 of the Denying Destiny Trilogy)

Well, the full moon is finally here so that means it’s time for the Ritual Awakening to begin!  If you didn’t catch the prologue then be sure to check it out before reading the first chapter when it becomes available.  For anyone who’s been reading The Freelancer or any of my fan fiction, this one is going to have a VERY different tone than the other…yet be somehow familiar.  

The Freelancer (Book 1 in the Undercover Series)

The Freelancer will be going on hiatus during the month of July to make way for a proper launch of Ritual Awakening.  If you’ve fallen behind – or haven’t started it yet – then now is your chance to catch up on the suspense and the romance.  Enjoy the breather until it returns in August because once it returns, expect things to take a dramatic turn.  You won’t want to miss it!

“What’s your littlest sin?”

Years Before…

Fervent chanting wafted up from the earthen temple in offering to the moonless night sky, floating higher and faster than the sage smoke burning all around.  Months of ritual and careful preparation were about to pay off.  In this one perfect night, new moon and winter solstice became one.  The power of their union cascaded from the depths of creation, bathing the hooded figures in the very same energy present at the moment the universe came into being.

Tonight, against all the odds, his child would come into the world, soaking it all in at birth.  In that single instant, his status would skyrocket from that of the general membership to that of the leaders.  Most spent the whole of their lives attempting to reach the coveted respect of Elder.  Yet, after only being granted full membership a few years before, he would soar to that rank with a single breath of the child.

Unless the damned Doula continued taking her time with the delivery, that is.  Precious little time remained until the window would again close.  There was no time to fear for the health of the mother.

She was doomed to die from the moment of conception… Read more »

~*~ Life is always so simple…Until it isn’t. ~*~

Anya Lucasta is the typical high school junior leading a typical life until an argument with her best friend leaves her friend in the hospital and Anya fighting to understand what happened in those terrifying moments.  Unable to convince others of her innocence when she herself isn’t even convinced, she sets off on a dangerous path of self-discovery; a path with far-reaching consequences she never could have imagined…

By day, Jacob Doyle fights to give a second chance to teenagers who would otherwise be without hope.  But under the cover of darkness, hope is the last thing on his agenda as he commands every resource at his disposal to fulfill the prophesy unknown to all except those within his inner circle.  All the signs point to now and every painstaking step has been taken to make way, yet the key continues to allude them.  That is, until one chance meeting brings what he wants within his grasp while threatening to change the course of his life forever…

Nick Erickson knows vampires, psychics, blood-thirsty cults, prophecies and the like are all the stuff of fiction and nothing more.  Everything he knows as fact is turned on its head when he agrees to a simple favor to help out a friend.  Now, he finds himself inexorably drawn to Anya more with each passing day.  What he believes to be a harmless crush may soon be revealed as destiny.  But will this brush with destiny save the world or cost him his life?

…Once the ritual awakening begins, can anything be done to deny your destiny?

Coming July 2009:

Ritual Awakening

Part One in the Denying Destiny Series
