A sneak peek between the pages of CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MAGIC: New Hook.
As Paul exited the vehicle a trickle of sweat rolled down the side of his face. Scenes from a far-off place blurred his vision. Explosions, gunfire, and the smell of death drowned out the present. Resting a shaky hand on the vehicle, he leaned against it, his pulse ratcheting up several notches.
Get a grip. I can’t let this go sideways. Drawing in deep breaths, he tried to gain control. Finally, his pulse slowed, and he swallowed hard. I can do this. Wiping away the sweat now streaming down his face, he closed his eyes willing the flashback away.
“Paul…Paul are you all right?” Trinity’s urgent voice brought focus to his mind. A soft but firm hand on his shoulder gave him a little shake. “Lathen and Pepper are heading toward us. Maybe they can tell us where Gwen and Brock are.”
“Yes. I’m fine. Give me a minute.” Straightening, he opened the back door to the vehicle, and began removing boxes of medical supplies and lockboxes of medicine. He mopped his face again with the sleeve of his shirt. Going through the motions until…
“Oh, wonderful, you’ve brought the supplies.” Pepper’s cheerful voice cut through the chaos. “We’ll need these…” She paused lifting an eyebrow. “You all right Paul?”
“Yes, yes, just give me a minute.” Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Pepper’s concerned expression then her waving Lathen over. Shit, that’s all I need. Trinity stood beside helping him take the boxes out of the SUV.
He saw concern reflected on his friend’s face. “Paul, you’re okay. Let’s get going.” Lathen gave him a shake, then turned and got in his face. “Don’t give in to it. Push it away. Get moving. People are counting on you.”
Was it sheer will? Or—what he wasn’t sure. But as suddenly as the visions began, they faded leaving him shaky but in control. “I’m good,” he assured Lathen, picking up a box of medical supplies and following Pepper to a tent they’d set up to evaluate the animals.

As they strolled along the path, birds sang in the trees, and insects buzzed. Ugh, bugs, not one of my favorite things but they mean spring is well underway. A gentle breeze blew strands of her long ginger-colored hair across her face. She’d braided her hair in a hurry this morning and now the shorter strands were flying all over the place. Without hesitation, Paul reached up with his large hand and gently brushed her hair from her face. A couple of strands remained between his fingers.
“It’s so soft.” He let the strands flow through his fingers then continued walking.
She had to nearly jog to keep up with his long legs and lengthy strides. Twice she reached out to catch his hand, then pulled back. Not during work hours. It took them forty-five minutes to check the grounds, all the habitats, and their residents.
The longer they walked the more she felt something wasn’t quite right. She hated feeling something bad was about to happen. Premonitions her mother had called them, claimed her grandmother had them too. But why were hers always bad? For a time as a teenager, she’d ignored them but after the accident, one she should have been able to prevent, she’d admitted the talent or curse however you wanted to look at it, was hers.
Suddenly, he stopped a few yards from the security office. She skidded to a halt just before running smack dab into him. Pausing, her pulse quickened, she stiffened and glanced around to see what had caught his attention. But seeing nothing amiss, she blew out a breath and relaxed.
Hands in his pockets, he turned to face her. “Any chance you’re free for a movie and maybe dinner this weekend?”
Just what she’d been hoping for. “Sounds great. Any particular show you have in mind?”
“Ladies choice.”

A sneak peek between the pages of CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY MAGIC:
As Trinity walked through the aftermath of the fire, she lifted the yellow and black caution tape and carefully stepped inside the building. Her gut clenched and that feeling of foreboding washed over her again. The farther she ventured into the burnt building the stronger the gut-wrenching feeling became. Something needs my help. This was a new sensation. She took a small flashlight out of her backpack, directed the beam over the scorched debris, and moved the rubble with her toe. Nothing.
One more sweep of the light and she’d return to the others. Probably not supposed to be here anyway. A weak squawk emanated from the far corner of the building. Picking up a scorched stick, she poked at the debris. A puff of smoke rose as she made her way to where the sound came from. Shining the light into the corner, she saw movement. She knelt down and carefully shifted the charred rubble. Laying on its side, head slightly raised, and using a wing in an attempt to right itself was a small parrot. Its little eyes locked on her for a moment before its head lowered to the ground.
Frantically, she glanced around, but there was no one in sight. How far had she ventured without telling anyone? The structure overhead groaned in warning. No time. “Okay little one, it’s you and me. I don’t have much experience at this, but I’ll do my best.” Shrugging out of her backpack, she unzipped it completely. “I’m going to scoop you up in my backpack and get help.” She didn’t raise her voice to call for help for fear of scaring the poor thing.
Clearing as much debris away from the bird as possible, she scooped up the parrot in her bag. Slowly she stood, so as not to jostle the little creature. Holding the bag gently against her chest, she picked her way across the downed wooden braces, charred remnants of cabinetry, and broken glass.
“Trinity, Trinity, where are you?” Paul’s worried voice pierced the air.
“Over here,” she called with relief directing the flashlight beam toward his voice. The wind shifted the burnt skeleton of the building emitting a squeeing sound of swaying twisted, wet wood. This section of the structure was in danger of collapsing.
“What the hell are you doing here? I’ve been searching all over for you. Didn’t you see the “Do Not Enter” caution tape?”
“I guess.”
“You guess?!” He grabbed her by the shoulders and gave her a little shake, then pulled her against him. “You scared me half to death.”
His concern was palpable as she braced the palm of her hand against his hard chest to keep him from further injuring the bird in her bag and as reassurance. Paul’s heart was beating like a trip hammer. Her gaze searched his face. Did the scent of charred earth and sight of destruction all around pull him into the black hole of PTSD? No I won’t let it happen. He has to help me get this bird to safety if its going to have any chance of survival.

My Theme Song, Sing it Loud & Sing it Proud #LASR Blogging Challenge
Welcome to #L&SR’s Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge for March 17, 2021. Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!! Today’s topic My Theme Song. Pull up a chair, grab a drink. Take your choice of a Chocolate Chip, Snickerdoodle, or Peanut Butter cookie from the plate and let me share my theme songs!
Good morning everyone. I’ve been following 52 Week Blog Challenge, sometimes I post, sometimes I don’t. It’s the renegade in me, I can’t help it. <shrugs> Today I noticed a topic – Do I have a theme song? Giving that thought, I decided if I do, it would be Rachel Platten – Fight Song (forgive the ad). Yep, that’s me sending big waves into motion with more than a single word. How about several books? LOL Explosions, well not always on purpose, but yeah I’ll own that too!
Take back my life. It gets away from me more than I’d like to admit. Writing deadlines, family obligations, social engagement demands, and I hate to admit it I cringe at leaving my writing cave at times. It’s safe there and I don’t have to live in reality. Reality is completely over rated in my book! Which explains why I write Paranormal Romance/Mystery/Suspense.
The peace and quiet of my sun room, in the company of my parrot and dog, the birds chirping outside allows me to center and take back my life on my terms. The support of my own real life hero and best friend of many, many moons, my hubby, keeps me striving to meet my goals.
Air whooshes out of me in a rush when I look at my to-do-list for the next six months. Yep that’s why I’m writing this instead of my books. Procrastination at it’s best. The list several pages long flutters to the floor and for a moment I consider leaving it there. That won’t do, so I pick the cursed things up and my real world whirls into focus. Am I in too deep? I contemplate that for a moment or two. Hell no, I’m living my dream and I’m going to grasp that brass ring and reach the top! Hear me Roar! Oops another theme song. Katie Perry <giggle>
Well enough reflections, time to get back into the battle and fight for what I want. Those damn books won’t write themselves. I hope you’ll join me in fighting for your dreams. No one said it’d be easy. Together, we’ll change the world, regardless of who believes, and we’ll do it one book at a time!
Alas, I must return to my writing cave. Stay tuned! Chocolate Raspberry Magic release date 7 April 2021. As I indicated, I’ve turned in the sixth book in A Demon’s Witch Series to my editor at The Wild Rose Press and I have a Contract on A Witch’s Quandary!! Now the edits to begin. Yippee! AND A new project’s last draft is DONE Wylder West Assignment it’s headed to my editor also. Fingers crossed she like its. Keep an eye out for more information. Now let’s see what the other authors list as their theme song. LOL L&SR
