    Thank you! I guess I was thinking more in terms of the mystery, but yes, more character growth for Killian is something indeed!
  2. Noah stumbled back, tripped, and sprawled on his ass. He stared up at me with an expression of disbelief. "Noah, I have a boyfriend," I said softly. I reached out a hand to help him up. He stared at my hand for a few seconds before purposefully ignoring it and standing without my assistance. "You know," he said in a low, tense voice as he brushed off his bottom, "I'll admit I'm not blameless here, but let's get one thing very clear: neither are you. You've been sending out mi

    Kane has always been pretty mature for his age, but he also has the benefit of not being the protagonist/narrator of this story, so who knows what he gets up to when he's not on the page...

    No more bird woman gifs! I promise.
  5. I pulled into Danielle's driveway only a little later than expected. Her neighborhood was a step up from Craig's, in that the houses were discernibly different from their neighbors in architectural style. She lived in a light-blue, two-story Cape Cod with an attached two-car garage, whose open door revealed a matching set of late-model Audis, one dark green and one champagne. In the drive outside sat a slightly older red Hyundai, which I assumed to be Danielle's. Unlike Craig, Danielle was

    Yes, sometimes Killian gets it right.

    New chapter posted!
  9. I was still brooding over Jake the next morning. Something about that photo of Neal in Jake’s room wouldn’t let me go. The implications twisted my gut in ways I wasn’t ready to examine too closely. Still, I’d promised Kane we’d work on costumes today, and I didn’t want to let him down again. But I figured I might be able to squeeze in a couple quick interviews with Jake’s old friends first. I wasn’t expecting much — high school gossip tends to be shallow and fleeting — but it was a loose en

    Chapter 19 is live now! Sorry the delay!
  11. I stood frozen, my brain scrambling to process what I was seeing. Why did Jake have a photo of Neal hidden in his bedroom? What was their relationship — if any? Could my two cases somehow be connected? A hundred questions flew through my mind like a flock of startled birds, but I shoved them aside. Now wasn’t the time. Neal was watching me, his expression curious. I forced myself to move again, pasting on a pleasant smile and walking toward him with what I hoped looked like professiona

    Why thank you! Interestingly, All Lost Things is the book for which I was a finalist for the Lambda Award.
  18. Waking up in Micah’s arms for the second time that week was just as blissful as the first. Maybe even more so. There was something about the warmth of his body pressed against mine, the steady rhythm of his breath, the way his arm was slung protectively across my waist — it made everything else feel distant and unimportant. I shifted carefully until I was facing him, doing my best not to wake him. He looked peaceful, almost boyish in sleep, and I couldn’t help but marvel at the fact that he
  19. Adam and I had breakfast together the next morning before I headed into work. Once at the office, I checked my email, replied to anything urgent, then pulled up Google. I typed in “The Drake Group” and hit enter. To my surprise, the very first result was an official website: drakegroup.com. I clicked the link, and a sleek, professional site loaded immediately. A deep charcoal background set the stage, overlaid with subtle, tasteful accents of gold and midnight blue. A slow-moving

    Thank you! It may not surprise you to learn that I was a huge Charlie's Angels fan as a kid. Jaclyn was my favorite, and I agree, she does look great!

    Thank you! Yes, even Killian can grow and learn!

    Oh the accuracy! According to my body, at least... I moved this past month and my entire body has been hurting ever since. LOL Jake will reappear soon. And with a vengeance... Much like Killian, I may have some challenges balancing two cases at once. 😉
