A Fighting Chance is Published!

A Fighting Chance has been published on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. For some reason my cover isn't cooperating on Barnes and Noble so it may be a little while before that one is live, but I'm trying!

I hope everyone enjoyed Just A Touch and I hope you all enjoy A Fighting Chance even more! Go out and grab your copy today!

Teaser, Teaser, what's in this Teaser?

I'm so, so close to being done with A Fighting Chance! I'm still planning on having it out by the end of June! Only a little over a week left. Yikes!

So, to hold you over until then...

Here is your promised teaser of the day! Happy Reading!

My heart aches as I watch his figure walk away from me. I know it took a lot of guts for him to tell me about his past. I completely understand why Arianna felt the way she did, but the Ethan I’ve come to care for doesn’t sound anything like the Ethan he just described.

How can I feel so much for him, even after hearing what he’s capable of?

I pull my knees to my chest and wrap my arms securely around my legs. With my head on my knees, my gaze drifts towards Ethan. I sigh.

Why did you have to go and do that, Ethan? How could you do that to Arianna?

I shake my head against my knees. Looking back over at his sleeping form I whisper, “But that’s not you anymore. It can’t be.”

Your past doesn’t define you. How many times have I told myself that?

Coming Very Soon :) 

A Fighting Chance Teaser!

Enjoy!

Good grief this is cold! My mind screams as the water hits my legs.

“You guys are crazy. This water’s freezing,” I say, wrapping my arms around my torso.

“It’s not so bad once you’re all the way in. It feels wonderful!” Jade says, falling back into the water.

I creep closer to where Ethan and Jade are sitting. The water gets deeper the farther out I get and is to my knees once I’m in the center. The cold rushes over me in waves and I’m shaking when I reach them.

Slowly, I sit myself down in the water, but hesitate as it splashes up onto my upper leg. I’m starting to straighten when hands wrap themselves around my waist and pull me down. A small squeal escapes my lips.

Ethan pulls me down next to him in the arctic water, keeping his arms wrapped around my waist, thwarting my escape.

“Let go, let go! You evil person! This water is freezing!” I scream at him through chattering teeth.

He laughs at me, but doesn’t let go. “Oh, quit whining you big baby. You’re fine.”

I turn and glare at him, but his eyes are laughing at me. That’s probably the happiest I’ve seen him since I met him. I smile and instead of continuing to fight him I splash a handful of water into his face.

He lets go instinctively and I move just out of his reach.

“You’re so mean,” I say, my teeth starting to chatter less now that I’m getting used to the water around me.

Jade’s watching us, a smile growing on her face. When she sees me staring at her she immediately looks away.

I chuckle. “See, this isn’t so bad now is it?” he says.

“It’s still cold,” I reply, but with less frustration than before.

“But it is water and that right there trumps the cold.” He lies back again and lets the water run across his face.

The sun light dances off his wet hair. He notices me staring and starts to grin. I immediately turn away, my face growing hot.

Nice going, Bianca. Keep staring at the boy because that’s not freaky at all.

I scrub the dried blood off my body with a vengeance, trying my best to look everywhere but at Ethan. Chase and Arianna help each other wash off before getting into a splash fight with Jade and Joanna.

I manage to get my legs and arms fairly clean and start working on my face. Ethan moves up next to me and I freeze. He whispers, “You know, it’s easier to wash the blood off your face if you just stick your head in the water.”

I resume scrubbing. “Not happening. I like my face to not be numb, thank you very much.”

“It was just a suggestion. You missed a spot by the way.”

I glance up at him and there’s a mischievous gleam in his eye. “Don’t you dare!” I squeal.

“What?” he says, faking innocence.

“Oh no you don’t. You stay away from me,” I say, using my hands to propel myself backwards through the water.

He comes closer and manages to grab me around the waist again. “Ethan!” I scream before holding my breath as he dunks me under the water.

“That… was… so… mean…” I say, my body shaking from the onset of cold.

“But now you’re clean.” He winks at me, his eyes sparkling.

“So not fair,” I say, shaking the water from my hair.

Meet the Fighter!

Hello Everyone!

I would like to introduce you to the cover of A Fighting Chance and therefore the Fighter.

Let me know what you think!

And because I'm feeling giving today...

    I feel the softness of her white blonde hair as I wrap my fingers in it, pulling her face towards mine. The pain in my chest lessens slightly with the contact, but not enough, so I keep pushing myself farther, wanting to drown in her touch. I hear a faint gasp and pause. “What is it?” she asks quietly against my lips.

     I don’t answer her, turning my face to see passed her bright blonde hair. The sight in front of me makes my stomach roll and my heart shatters. I meet the emerald eyes of the only person I should be doing this with. The shock and pain and hurt clouding those beautiful eyes keeps me frozen in place. I can’t even say anything to her. I see the question screaming at me as a single tear slides down her face and she turns and runs out of my life completely—why?

      A beam of sunlight wakes me from my nightmare.

Happy Reading!
