Pucker Up Monday

It's not what you think. Since Mondays do tend to suck, I thought I'd start the week off right for ya.

Teaser Tuesday

Kayden parked the truck at a respectful distance from the castle entrance, then killed the engine. He looked over at Mika and nodded toward the building. “Ready for this?”

“As ready as I’ll ever be,” he replied.

Kayden unbuckled his seat belt. “Time to see if the gargoyles are as talkative as their wards are clingy.”

He and Mika stepped out, followed by their crew who had driven in behind them. Everyone gathered around Kayden, waiting for instructions.

“Remember, respect their rules and follow my lead,” Kayden instructed firmly. “We’re here to work, not cause trouble.”

“Heads up,” Mika whispered as he nodded toward the massive doors of the castle that swung open.

A figure emerged, tall and imposing with skin the color of the deepest blue. The gargoyle’s eyes glinted with an unnatural light, like a cat at night. 

Kayden was more than a little surprised that the gargoyle approached them in his true form. But then again, why wouldn’t he? Kayden had assured Ward that what humans were on his crew were well aware of the paranormal world. 

And yes, Kayden had told them their client was a gargoyle king. Still, this was definitely unexpected, and he didn’t quite know what to make of it. 

He’d never seen a gargoyle in anything but their human glamor, and woo wee, this was a big one. Like massively big. Like, his muscles had muscles. 

The gargoyle’s power surged forward, coming at them like a fierce wave crashing onto the shore. But instead of knocking him off his metaphorical feet, it wrapped around Kayden like a purring cat. He could literally feel the ancient magic of the gargoyle coursing through him. 

Oh yes, this gargoyle was a force to be reckoned with.

Thursday Book Recommendation

 

These are books I’ve read and really enjoyed. Most of what I talk about will probably be paranormal/scifi but not always. Although it’s rare, I do read some contemporary. 

This week is: Loren (Van Doren Book 1) Kindle Edition by Crea Reitan 

Blurb: 

I will kill to keep him.

Oakley

It’s a new start - brand new school in a completely different state. For the first time, I now have the freedom to be unapologetically me. But as my luck would have it, I have shit taste in men. The first man to pay me a compliment has so many red flags, I think I’m in a storm. Life can’t get any worse… until he turns into a stalker.

Then my stalker ends up brutally murdered, I walk blindly into a serial killer’s nest, and I catch the attention of a sociopath.

Loren

The moment I see Oakley walk into the cafe, I know he’s mine. I may be here to finish a job, but it’s impossible to concentrate on anything but him. My fascination quickly turns into an obsession, which might be fortunate for him because I think he’s trying to get himself killed.

Which is fine; I’ll protect him. It doesn’t matter how many lives I have to end to make Oakley mine.

Teaser Teaser

 

~Seduced by Moonlight teaser

KAYDEN MUTTERED to himself as he walked outside. There were several pickup trucks parked by his house. Mika, his foreman—all wiry muscles, black hair, and olive complexion—walked toward him.

“Hey, Mika. I appreciate you getting everybody together for me,” Kayden said.

“It was no problem,” Mika said as Lance, another one of Kayden’s crew, waved at Kayden from the driver’s seat of another truck. “I don’t blame our newest client for wanting to meet the crew.” 

The gargoyles were a reclusive and enigmatic race, known to keep to themselves and shun society. Much like daemons and dragons, they were well known, but their capabilities remained largely mysterious. There were rumors, though. Oh boy, were there rumors. 

And the one that concerned Kayden the most was the gargoyles’ ability to turn someone into stone. The mere thought sent shivers down his spine, and this came from someone who had plenty of impressive abilities at his disposal as well. 

Despite his own formidable powers, the thought of facing these creatures left him feeling vulnerable and exposed. But he shook it off. Ward had sought him out and hired him for this job, for crying out loud. Still, he’d be glad when it was done. 

“Let’s get this show on the road,” Kayden said as he opened his truck door. “Are you riding with me, Mika?” 

“If you don’t mind.” 

“I don’t mind at all.” Kayden climbed behind the wheel.

He observed the other members of his team had pulled over to make way for his large truck as it rolled down the long driveway. They’d done this song and dance plenty of times—the rest of the guys would fall in behind and follow him to their next client.  

His popularity stemmed from the fact that his crew consisted almost entirely of paranormal shifters—excluding werewolves, as the San DeLain packs disliked rogues. 

Then there were a few oddballs like him who had some sort of psychic power. His ability was both a blessing and a curse, as it often left him feeling isolated and misunderstood. But he’d learned to embrace his uniqueness.

He’d had to. 

Interestingly, other paranormals did not classify people like Kayden as one of their own. But Kayden was not human either. His kind fell into the category of nonhuman, a label that only served to further emphasize their lack of acceptance among paranormal society. 

It was just another way to reinforce the fact that either group did not accept them. Yeah, he had a chip on the shoulder about it. Many like him did. 

The ironic thing was, paranormals sought out Kayden because he wasn’t human. In those situations, they were more than willing to hire him and his crew of misfits.
