EXCERPT: 

Ever since he took up residence in our house, he’s been making my life a living hell. It isn’t that he’s mean to me or anything—though there’s no question that he’s an asshole. It’s more just...

He unnerves me. He’s not like anyone I’ve ever come across, not in my entire life. It doesn’t help that he has that dark brooding alpha male thing going for him. And it sure doesn’t help that I instead of grating I find his Southie accent fascinating, and I definitely admire the way he fills out his T-shirts more often than could possibly be good for me.

And his eyes. God, his eyes. He doesn’t look at me very often, but when he does—it’s like he knows every single dirty little thought I’d ever hidden away.

And he can’t know. No one can ever know my little secret, because it’s about as wrong as wrong could be. Seth is my stepbrother.

About Lauren Hawkeye

Lauren Hawkeye/ Lauren Jameson never imagined that she’d wind up telling stories for a living… though when she looks back, it’s easy to see that she’s the only one who is surprised. Always “the kid who read all the time”, Lauren made up stories about her favorite characters once she’d finished a book… and once spent an entire year narrating her own life internally. No, really. But where she was just plain odd before publication, now she can at least claim to have an artistic temperament.

Lauren lives in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada with her husband, toddler, pit bull and idiot cat, though they do not live in an igloo, nor do they drive a dogsled. In her nonexistent spare time Lauren can be found knitting (her husband claims that her snobby yarn collection is exorbitant), reading anything she can get her hands on, or sweating her way through spin class. She loves to hear from her readers!

About Tawny Stokes

Tawny Stokes has always been a writer. From an early age, she’d spin tales of serial killers in love, vampires taking over the world, and sometimes about fluffy bunnies turned bunnicidal maniacs. An honour student in high school, with a penchant for math and English, you’d never know it by the foot high blue Mohawk and Doc Martens, which often got her into trouble. No longer a Mohawk wearer, Tawny still enjoys old school punk rock, trance, zombie movies, teen horror films, and fluffy bunnies. She lives in Canada with her fantastical daughter, two cats, and spends most of her time creating new stories for teens. Tawny also writes adult paranormal/urban fantasy fiction under the name Vivi Anna, and is an aspiring screenwriter. Website | Facebook | Twitter
