“So what the hell is going on here?”
It was a valid question. Between everything with Paul and Michael and her own strange behavior, her friend deserved to be confused. Hell, Sara was in the middle of it and she was confused herself. [Read more...]
Alliance – Chapter 28

Monday, March 22
Jackson glanced at the clock on his desk and realized it was finally late enough to call the Collin County prosecutor’s office. He grabbed his cell phone and went into one of the conference rooms, pulling the door closed behind him. Even though there was a phone on his desk, it was too out in the open and he didn’t want Dinsley to walk by and find out that he was going outside the Bureau to find out about him and the case.
“Good morning, Jenna Monroe’s office,” Trista said once she answered the phone. [Read more...]
LWLU – More Skeletons
April 16, 2010 By 9 Comments
Sara watched the look of momentary truce fly between Michael, Veronica and Lincoln before Lincoln said, “It doesn’t matter.” Then the truce died. “What matters is that you tried to have sex with my girlfriend!”
“We were drunk. It doesn’t count.” He met Sara’s gaze for a split second and quickly averted his eyes. “Besides, we didn’t actually sleep together and you weren’t together at the time. For once, Nika’s right. You’re both making a big deal about nothing. I was only trying to help by mentioning it in the first place.” [Read more...]
LWLU – Skeletons Revealed
April 10, 2010 By 3 Comments
Ignoring the lingering drowsiness spreading through her satisfied limbs, Sara forced herself to dress quickly. This whole thing was ridiculous. No one ever liked being snowed in, but her friends had planned to stay the entire weekend anyway. With the exception of Jane – whose annoyance she understood – the rest of them had no reason to be melting down like this was the last civilization on Earth.
What was wrong with everyone? They’d been there for one night, not two years. [Read more...]
LWLU – Another Fire
April 3, 2010 By 4 Comments
Something was wrong. She could sense it the moment she opened the bedroom door. There were no sounds of running water. Sara had spent long enough talking to Nika that Paul should already be in the shower by now. What the hell was he doing?
Jane’s warning echoed through her brain. Against her will, she closed the door behind her with only the faintest of clicks. Everyone in the house was accounted for, so that could only mean he was on the phone with another woman. [Read more...]
LWLU – Hot Shower
March 12, 2010 By 7 Comments
Against her will, Sara felt guilty about what she was doing. From the stack of bridal magazines, she looked like one of those women who’d secretly been planning her wedding even though she hadn’t found the groom yet. In reality, any thoughts of wedding planning – or even having some semblance of a normal life – flew out the window the night her mother died and the night Michael broke her heart.
Of course, both those things happened on the same night… [Read more...]
LWLU – Another Proposal

“Are you on drugs,” she blurted before the full ramifications of what she was hearing washed over her.
“No. We both know I don’t do drugs.”
Sara ripped her hands away from Michael. “I don’t know anything anymore, but [Read more...]
LWLU – Minor Misconceptions

To say Sara was upset would be the understatement of a lifetime. This was unforgivable. The whole situation was her friend’s fault and couldn’t be undone. Not now. Fury filled her veins. [Read more...]

LWLU – Pregnant Pause

With effort, Sara tore her gaze away from the glass – and Michael’s gaze – to turn to Nika. She spoke after the briefest of pauses. “Just looking at nature. It looks peaceful out there.” [Read more...]

LWLU – …Breaks Loose
November 7, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Thinking naught of her commando clothing situation, she raced back up the stairs to the source of the commotion, giving Michael an eyeful from behind her. Sara stopped short at the top of the stairs taking in the surreal scene unfolding in front of her eyes. If the look of guilt on Lincoln’s face wasn’t so genuine then she would think she was being Punk’d. [Read more...]
LWLU – Night Sounds

Sleep simply would not come for Sara. It didn’t matter how long she spent envisioning total blackness, it would not take her from her current state of consciousness. Tossing and turning was perhaps more pointless than sheep counting.
Why was it that her bed felt so empty in the darkness? She always slept alone. Tonight shouldn’t feel so different. [Read more...]
LWLU – Hooking Up
November 3, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Time passed quickly during the rest of the evening. After Paul had taken the book to Sara’s room for safekeeping, he’d taken up residence in the spot beside Sara on the couch, his arm draped around her shoulders in a comfortable manner. Uncomplicated chatter – led by Nika – dispersed any lingering tension that might have remained. [Read more...]
LWLU – Soul Mate
October 31, 2009 By Leave a Comment
The door was moving up her back. No…wait….She was sliding down the door. It was really over.
Who was she kidding? This was over before it ever began. Michael was the same person now he’d been five years ago. Holding onto some false hope he might ever be hers was insane. It was masochistic.
It was heartbreaking…all over again. [Read more...]
