It Was Beautiful!

I don’t have much to update about WIPs this week since I spent most of the past week in The Bahamas. I haven’t worked on It Feels Like Home or JUMPER since my last update, although I intend to write today. So let me share photos of my trip with you here—a few more than I shared in my newsletter or Facebook for good measure. I hope you enjoy my travels and travails.

Firstly, I should explain that my husband was invited to take this trip through work. It was something he earned at work as a top performer. I was a plus one because my husband would lose an eye and a testicle if he suggested taking anyone else. It was basically all-inclusive and so very Gucci that I wanted to steal the cappuccino cups in my room, and if I weren’t Honest Ali, I might have. They were so very cute.

WIP Wednesday, Writing

A WIP without WIP TYPOs.

I am still trying to determine how I work on two projects without any major boo-boos, but I’ll take it. It’s like I’m suddenly touched by the gods with my ability to type, and I’d like to keep going with this trend, but alas, I’m about to head out on adventures.

What am I working on?

She’s open to learning about all cultures- the good, the bad, and the ugly. And of course the wonderful, the mysterious, and the magical. Does she learn about the world? Does she learn about herself? Does Pam learn ANYTHING at all? Come adventuring with her…

Featuring Author Shantel Tessier

Celebrating Shantel Tessier’s new book The Sacrifice.
I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.
Holy Cow!

Title: The Sacrifice
Author: Shantel Tessier
Genre: Dark College Romance
Release Date: April 7, 2023

HIS LADY

A Lord is to marry after he graduates from Barrington University, an elite college
for the rich. A Lady’s job is to help him fit into a world unaware of his secret
society. The Lord does not get to choose who he spends the rest of his life with.
But there is always an exception to the rule. And I just so happen to be his.

I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.

I was to wed a Lord of my parents’ choosing. Wealth can’t buy you everything, or
I would have had freedom years ago. Instead, my strict parents made sure I lived

a dull life in a mansion resembling a prison.

But on my wedding day, I was handed over to another man—an even more

ruthless Lord that my family hated.

Tyson Riley Crawford only wanted me for his revenge. I’m nothing more than a
debt to be paid. I didn’t have a say in the matter. So when I said my vows before
the congregation, I knew I’d break them. Consequences be damned.
Too bad I underestimated my husband and didn’t realize he was more
determined to punish me than I was to succeed at escaping. He’ll make me

choke on those words I used to bind myself to him.

Yet even he couldn’t have seen what our future held. Ultimately, we’re all just
pawns in a game that none of us can win unless you’re willing to pay the ultimate

sacrifice … and even that may not be enough.

Renley, Writing

The Ronan the Roadmap WIP

It’s been a trial.

I had been feeling better for about three weeks and only had my voice back for two days before I got sick again. My husband gave me his cooties again. I know, I know… this is divorce-level bullshit.

RENLEY went to the formatter yesterday. He should be going to ARC readers next Tuesday. It’s very exciting. Somehow, after all the delays, he is on track for his release date. I will be honest; I didn’t think it would happen.

For today’s WIP typo, I have a name boo-boo. I may have confused Ronan’s name with the word Roadmap. He didn’t hold it against me, thankfully.

I never expected to fall in love with a ghost…

I had to get away from my life.

teaching a precious little girl at her home in Scotland,
seemed like the perfect answer.

The Manor was beautiful.
Large and mysterious,
it held secrets that lurked
behind the glass panes and painted walls.

And they wanted me to end the curse.

But if I did, I would lose him.
