Dark urban fantasy coming soon... Blood Lies (The Iron Series 3)
Here's another sneak peek of Blood Lies...
Stein’s notebook lay front and center, the dissecting
materials carelessly pushed to the side.
The blue was faded and creased in places from use and his fidgeting
fingers.
Always a fidgeter.
Demon Stein didn’t fidget.
I flipped it open, my fingers traveling over his
incredibly neat handwriting. Mine wasn’t
terrible, but his made it look like chicken scratch. Pages and pages of notes he’d taken during
class moved beneath my gaze, little doodles of video game nerd crap I didn’t
understand filling up the margins.
And then I flipped to a page I’d never seen before
with notes on cow eyes, but that wasn’t what caught my attention. It was the little doodles across the top and
bottom that held my heart in a death grip.
He’d written my name a few times, misshapen hearts
surrounding it. My name and his were
together in other place, little plus signs between them.
A lump the size of Mik’s fist lodged in my throat,
ripping away my ability to breathe. God,
how could I have missed this? He was
sitting right next to me drawing my name in hearts. How could I have not known he wanted to be
more than my friend?
Why didn’t he tell me?
Because he knew my heart belonged to someone
else. Stein sat there and listened to me
bitch and moan about my unrequited and confused feelings for Rex when he was
having the same for me, except he had no one to unload them on.
Everyone had known except me.
I was the self-absorbed idiot too cruel to notice when
the sweetest kid in the world was head over heels for me.
A deadly combination of guilt and anger flowed through
my chest, threatening to break my ribs to reach my heart. The room blurred and at first I thought it
was because I was going to start hallucinating.
Instead something warm flowed down my cheek and a quiet splat hit the
white notebook paper, smearing my name inside of a heart.
I was crying.
I was crying in class… in front of people.
I quickly wiped the tears off with my fingertips, my
gaze traveling the room to see if anyone had noticed the disaster unfurling
around me. Everyone’s eyes were cast
down on their dead fish as they cut into it, every set except for a pair of
pretty blue ones, staring wide-eyed in my direction.
Brett Baustic’s gaze was trained on me from across the
room as if he was witnessing a car accident and couldn’t look away.
This was a hundred times more unlikely than a car
accident.
I wanted to be angry at him. I wanted to flip him off or tell him to go screw
himself, but I couldn’t seem to find that hot fury he used to bring out in
me. Maybe it was because I felt guilty
for my part in Chanel’s death. Or maybe
it was the way those blue irises glinted with pain instead of the arrogance they
used to.
Jason elbowed Brett and began to turn his head to see
what had his friend so enraptured. I
glanced away before he too could discover my secret—that I could in fact cry.
Finish summer with this Urban Fantasy coming in August
Here's another excerpt from Blood Lies!
I marched into the guys locker room, getting smacked
in the face with a dose of old sweat and socks.
I almost gagged it was so bad.
Several of the guys halted mid motion while some attempted to cover
their man parts.
Please. Like I wanted to see that.
“Where’s Baustic?” I asked a wide-eyed jock next to me
who was standing in front of an opened locker in nothing but his boxers.
He simply blinked as if unable to speak and pointed
toward the left. I rolled my eyes and
marched toward the edge of the aisle, turning down another to find him about
five seconds away from pulling down his jeans.
“Yo Baustic!”
His head snapped in my direction, blue eyes wide with
a mixture of shock and confusion.
“K-Kory?” His voice came out
higher than usual. “What the hell are
you doing in here?”
I jerked my chin toward the back of the locker room
where the showers were. “We got some
unfinished business.” My face pulled
that characteristic sneer most people were afraid of. I couldn’t let anyone think I was here for
any other reason than to either kick Brett’s ass or collect on a debt.
He glanced around, taking in our
audience. “Yeah, that thing. Right.”
He zipped up his pants and followed me toward the back out of sight...

Blood Lies is coming this August
Warm steady breath blew on the back of my neck while a
thick arm draped over my torso and a warm body pressed into my back.
It was always too good to be true waking up with Rex
holding me. I had wanted it since the
very first time he’d put me in his bed that horrible night he saved me from
Nate and his rape intentions. The warmth
and familiar scent surrounding my body made me drowsy, my lids fluttering
again.
A distant, persistent thudding echoed from somewhere
and I finally realized it was the door.
I nudged him.
“Rex, someone’s at the door,” I mumbled, my voice thick with sleep.
He groaned, his arm tightening around me. “Five minutes.”
I snorted on a laugh.
That was usually my line. “The
door. Someone’s at the door.” It was then that I remembered we were at school. It was also then that I heard the distinct
sound of a key sliding into place and unclicking the lock.
