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

A peek between the pages of A Magic Redemption.
Time seemed to go on forever as she slowed and walked backward for a while, her foot steps in the sand filling with water as she traveled along the shoreline, as if nature erased her intrusion. She turned around and continued her trek. Unaware of how long or how far she’d walked, the sudden outline of a figure, cloaked in the fog, jogging toward her caused panic to set in. Her heart pounded rapidly in her chest, she swallowed hard, adrenalin pumping through her veins as flight or fight response kicked in. Digging her good foot into the sand she prepared to attempt a sprint…to where. Where the hell am I? A quick glance around, she spied a light from a familiar building far off on the bluffs as the figure burst from the fog. A tall, wide-shouldered male with long muscular legs came closer. She froze.
Once lithe, strong and agile in her former life, a boss’s retaliation had taken a toll on her body. Now tired her gait was uneven and unsteady, even a slow sprint would likely end with her face planted in the sand.

A little about Charm Me:

Despite her attempts to ignore him, Summer is drawn to Devlin. His magic signature is strong, but he’s no warlock. Will Valentine’s Day magic find them a future together?
A peek between the pages of Charm Me.
Getting to her feet, she brushed the dust from her black yoga pants, tugged at the bottom of her bright orange tunic, and flipped the light switch on. A soft glow of florescent lighting flooded the large room, soothing Summer’s nerves. Guess she would never be the same carefree individual she was before the incident. Oh, shake it off. You’re safe and it’s time to get on with life. “Come on Pip, let’s get this place open.”
A massive stone fireplace towered in the corner. She picked up an arm full of wood and flung it in the general direction. Logs landed in the fire pit and neatly arranged themselves in a tepee shape. With a magic flick of her finger toward the hearth, flames raced up the aspen logs. “That’s better.”
She raised her arms, about to send the yoga mats back to their proper place when the heavy wooden front door creaked open. Piper rushed toward the door, teeth bared and a growl rumbled in her throat. Summer whirled around and yelped as Devlin ambled into the room, black hair tousled and glistening with melting snowflakes. His nonchalance at the dog’s approach surprised her as he slowed to a stop. Piper sniffed around him, backed up a few inches, then stood at alert in front of Devlin.
“You scared the bejeebers out of me.” Summer held her hand to her chest as her heart thundered.
“What are you doing here?”
“Call your guard dog off and I’ll tell you.” The corners of Devlin’s mouth curved up into a smile, a faint light twinkled in the depths of his dark eyes.
“Piper, leave it…come.” The dog gave Devlin a last sideways glance, trotted back to Summer and sat at her side.
