"Throwing myself into his arms? Begging him
to marry me instead?" Her voice was growing louder and shriller
with every word. "Win him back? Damn you, Matt! Are you really this
idiotic? I'm beginning to think I should have my head checked for
trying so hard!"

She struck his chest with both of her hands,
knocking him off balance physically as well as emotionally.

"I should turn around right now and just
give up on your sorry ass," she snapped, her golden eyes flashing
with feline iridescence. "I'm beginning to wonder if you're really
worth it. If there is anything left in there worth saving, or if
that blonde tramp you loved before took all of the good bits with
her."

Matt was speechless, backing away from her
fury as she advanced upon him, still hissing and spitting out
curses and accusations that rang dangerously close to truth. But he
was unable to cut a word in edge wise.

She stalked towards him like lioness, filled
with predatory grace and threat. Although she was only as tall as
his chest, and probably half his weight, there was a fiery passion
in her that made up for her size.

Passion and an exquisite, feline grace and
beauty.

And she loved him. If nothing else that she
was yelling struck home, that part rang through loud and clear.

A warm joy began to swell inside his chest,
radiating out to fill all of his limbs and bring an incredulous
smile to his lips.

Abruptly, he stopped retreating from her
fury and embraced it.

Wrapping his arms around her, he lifted her
up, capturing her mouth with his own to finally silence her
tirade.

At first she struggled against him, still
too mad to surrender. But as he seduced her with his lips and
tongue, she began to grow soft and pliable in his arms.

When he finally lifted his head to look down
at her, she was gazing up with lust darkened eyes.

"You're an ass,” she murmured huskily. “But
you kiss okay."

He laughed and lowered her back to her feet,
holding her in his arms as she steadied herself on wobbly
knees.

"Let's go up to the house and I'll show you
something else I do okay," he grinned wickedly.

"Legal work?" She teased. "Yawn. But I'll
come along anyway, just in case you decide to apologize. I’d hate
to miss that."

Her captured her rosy cheeks with his palms
and brushed another kiss to her lips.

"I'm sorry," he told her. "Will you give me
another chance?"

She smiled and simply continued walking
towards his home, forcing him to follow if he wanted an answer.

"Alright," she told him as he managed to
catch up to her. "One more chance. It is Christmas, you know. Even
Scrooge got a second chance."

They walked together in silence before he
reached out to hold her hand.

"The rumors are true," he snickered softly,
as if just remembering the punchline to a good joke.

"What rumors?"

"Redheads can be scary when they're
mad."

She punched him in the arm but Matt just
laughed.

 

 

Additional titles in the
Kitty Coven Series

It all started on a cold October’s eve in
1954.

That’s when a group of young witches cast a
powerful spell that would forever change their lives and the lives
of everyone in the small town of Aspire, New York.

 

Something Wicca This Way
Comes

A short prequel story

Using a token offering from a handsome new
stranger in town, a coven of young witches cast a spell to make
their home a beacon to others of his kind. But magic can be very
specific. By the time they discover that he's a feline shifter, the
spell has been set and Aspire, New York will never be the same.

 

The Bare Witch
Project

Book #1

Morgan is the granddaughter of an original
Kitty Coven member, but she's never practiced witchcraft before.

some of the biggest challenges of her life, she'll turn to the
magic that her grandmother relied upon.

 

Love Is a Witch

Book #2

Rachel grew up on a small farm on the edge
of Aspire. She has always loved animals, but doesn’t feel like
there is a place for pets in her new apartment. Besides, she’s too
busy trying to keep her brother Matt from making one of the biggest
mistakes of his life.

 

A Yowling
Yuletide

A short Christmas story

After being rejected and betrayed by the
only woman he’s ever loved, Matt swears off dating completely. He’d

the obnoxiously perky redhead that the temp agency sent over will
not take no for an answer.

 

Cheaper By The
Coven

Book #3

Heidi loves being free to date anyone she
likes and do anything she wants. The last thing she wants is to
settle down and be a boring housewife and mother. But she’s finding

though he has two small children from a previous marriage.

Fourteen for
2014

I took a necessary medical
leave during the last half of 2012 and all of 2013. For that
reason, the titles I’d planned to publish ended up getting pushed
back and pushed back until here I am in 2014 with fans sending me
daily messages asking when they’ll see the next Seduction series
book or the inside to covers I’ve leaked onto
Facebook
.

As a special kind of thank you to everyone
that has stayed with me during my long hiatus, I made a challenging
New Year’s resolution. My goal is to publish fourteen titles in
2014. That is more than a title each month!

The entire kitty coven
series was inspired by one of my daughters, who has always been an
avid cat lover. I originally planned to only write one book

The Bare Witch Project
– and dedicate it to her. But as the characters
began to develop, I realized that there was a lot more story that
needed to be told.
