Wednesday Antics ~ Bearing It All is Coming Soon!

Good Wednesday morning, Divas and Divos! Michele and I are so freaking busy, I can't even explain it properly. We're in the midst of writing five books right now, with Caden being by far the largest we have written. (He should come in somewhere around 110k)

However, we do have a new release coming soon! March 15th to be exact! We're so proud of our TSU (Turnskin University) series. We're on to book 3, with hopefully Silence isn't Golden book 4 and One Night with A Wolf book 5 out sometime this fall.

Until then, you can catch up with Unrequited Mate here and Sorority Row here!

Blurb:

Emma Monte has three really big secrets. One, she’s the guardian of her little sister Cassidy. Two, she loves everything 80’s inspired and three, she’s throwing the biggest wedding she can for her friends—okay, so maybe the second isn’t really a secret. When she’s invited to spend spring break with Hayden and her family in Window Rock, Arizona, all of her secrets will be revealed.

Bodhi Raferty has been biding his time. He knows the little bear is his mate, but he’s willing to wait—if it means spending more time with her. When the opportunity arises to go home, he ready to take that final step and claim Emma for his own. However, his mate is hiding something huge. The only question is, can he help her pull it off?


Bodhi and Emma aren’t the only ones in for a surprise. As the week’s events unfold, there is a pair of Rafertys ready to be introduced, and they have the ability to upstage them all.

Excerpt:

Emma stepped out of the truck, bag in hand, and took in her surroundings. From the porch, a man, who looked suspiciously like Bodhi called out, announcing their arrival. A mass of people, and she didn't use the term lightly, exited the house. Emma took a step back and ran into Bodhi, who grunted.

“Easy, pinky. Nothing to be afraid of. They’re family.” He wrapped his arm around “her middle.

She sucked in a breath. Her heart hammered. He. Was. Touching. Her. The warmth and security he offered her, soothed some of her nerves, but also made her anxious in another way. “Thanks.”

He leaned down. “You’re welcome.” His lips brushed the shell of her ear, and she thought she’d died and gone to heaven.

As the adults exited the house, she noticed one thing straight away. They were like Bell's co-ed house. All of them were different, yet they fit together. Misfits. Three people stepped forward. A curvy woman, rounded by her pregnant belly, along with a man who looked just like Bodhi, and another man with white-blond hair and light-green eyes.

Bodhi urged her forward. “Mom. Dads. This is Emma.”

The man who looked like Bodhi stepped forward. The minute he smiled, his whole appearance changed. His harsh features softened. “You did good, son.” The man stopped in front of her. “I’m Jace. My mates are Loraine and Blake.” He held his hand out to her.

Emma rubbed her hand on her jean-shorts worried it might be sweaty. When she placed her palm in Jace’s he embraced her. The tight hug was filled with love and welcoming. Tears sprung to her eyes. She hadn’t been hugged like that since her mom and dad. “Hi,” she murmured.

“Don’t hog her all to yourself,” the woman said, placing her hand on her belly.

“Precious,” Jace growled, the sound vibrated through Emma.

“Yeah, don’t be an asshole,” Blake stated. “We want our turn, too.” He winked at Emma “when she glanced at him.

Jace released her and she was enveloped by a very pregnant, very happy woman. “It’s so good to have you here. Bodhi has told us all about you.”

Had he? Holy guacamole. “It’s nice to meet you, too. Thank you for allowing us to stay with you.”

The woman laughed, and it filled Emma’s soul with happiness. “Don’t thank us, yet.”

Blake was next. He held her hands, then spun her around. She giggled. Her cheeks heated when he gave a curt nod. “Yep, my son did well. Very good.”

“Mom!” Hayden pushed through everyone standing around and gathered Loraine in her arms. “Oh my God. Look at you!” She placed her hand on the woman’s belly. “I can’t believe we’re here. I can’t believe we’ll have a baby soon.”

“Didn’t Blake tell you?” Jace hugged her.

Hayden shook her head no.

“Babies, squirt,” Jace said.

“Babies?” Hayden squealed as she bounced in place. “Do you know the sex?”

Jace shook his head. “We want it to be a surprise.”

On the porch stood a large man. He had a protective arm wrapped around a woman who reminded her of, well, herself. He held onto her like Bodhi had done to her, and though she didn’t want to read into it, she hoped it meant what she thought it did.

“Whoa . . . their family is huge,” Cassidy said, coming up next to her. “Have you ever?”

Emma shook her head. “Never.”

“Do you think they’ll eat us?”

She laughed and pulled her sister to her side. “No way. Do you want to meet everyone?”
