Author: C.Y. Croc
Genre: Sci-Fi Romance
Release Date: January 16, 2023

Ignored all her life by the opposite sex.
Odessa can’t understand why the 3 hot new male employees ignore her stunning co-workers and make a beeline for her.
Extremely tall and lithe, with minimal curves and skin wrecked from her teenage years, Odessa is stunned by their interest in her.
Starved for attention, she foolishly makes the most of it before they tire of her.
But playing with fire can get you burnt, and Odessa finds herself in a precarious predicament.
She’s pregnant, and she doesn’t know which one of the 3 is the father.
What’s worse, none of them know she has been sleeping with the other.
On a team-building weekend, she picks up the courage to single them out and fess up.
But she’s the one who gets the surprise when they reveal a secret far worse than what she’s been keeping from them.

This story was formally in Loved by the Alien anthology titled as, Why Choose.
It has been updated and changed slightly.

The Mother Abuse WIP

So much has happened in only a week.

I am irritated, frustated and some other –tateds. I’ve been having some trouble with my dominant hand for a while. Swelling, numbness and other bullshit, bullshit, bullshit. Friday, I woke up and it was swollen and felt like I had fire ants under my skin. I went to urgent care and was like… ‘I think I have shitty arthritis.’ They came back to me and were like, ‘No, you are wrong.’ They couldn’t tell me more than that but put a rush appointment in for me with my GP, who saw me first thing Monday morning.

I was like… ‘You sure this ain’t arthritis?’ And she was like, ‘No, you have De Quervain tenosynovitis and carpal tunnel.’ At which time I looked her in the eye and said, ‘I don’t have time for that.’ She laughed and laughed and gave me steroids, wrist braces and a follow-up appointment for 6 weeks. Because this bullshit, bullshit, bullshit has all the time in the world for me.

The Garden Wednesday WIP

I’m almost done with RENLEY–well, the first draft. I still have to do the hard work and the rework of it and do it in a tight deadline because I’m going to Las Vegas with my bestie for a few days on a girls’ weekend. I’ll be starting the rewrite on Saturday, watching the Superbowl on Sunday… so any writing I get done that day will be done EARLY… very early, since I get up at 0400-0500. It shouldn’t be a problem. Yes, I use twenty-four hour time. Hey, my husband used to do international travel for work, and it was the easiest way for us to sync up since most countries in Europe use it too. We never stopped using it. I also tend to write dates in European standard and use Celsius.

I suck like that, and Bri is generally correcting my date usage, and ignoring my Celsius claims.

So, here is my typo of the week. It would seem there is a sneaky camera in their gardening equipment. My characters are bizarre and do weird things. Why wouldn’t they put surveillance equipment in a hoe?

Celebrating Author Julia Bennet’s new release The Worst Woman in London!

Title: The Worst Woman in London
Author: Julia Bennet
Genre: Adult, Historical, Historical Romance
Release Date: February 2, 2023

A defiant Victorian wife fights to escape a bad marriage but her love for a forbidden man jeopardizes her chance at freedom.

James Standish knows how to play society’s game. He’ll follow the rules, marry a virginal debutante, and inherit a massive fortune. At least, that’s the plan until he meets Francesca Thorne. She’s not the sort of woman a respectable gentleman like James could ever marry—not least because, strictly speaking, she’s married already.

Francesca is determined to flout convention and divorce her philandering husband. When James sweet talks his way into her life tasked with convincing her to abandon her dream of freedom, she’s unprepared for the passion that flares between them.

Torn apart by conflicting desires, James and Francesca must choose whether to keep chasing the lives they’ve always wanted or take a chance on a new and forbidden love.

Eye of toads WIP… Thursday?

I’m a day late for WIP Wednesday because I just over adulted yesterday after I wrote, and I also had plans… I had to nap for last night (Go San Diego Gulls!). So, I did not get my WIP done in time. I suck. But you know, life is just like that at times.

Where are you on RENLEY, Ali? Why are you talking in third person?

I don’t know why I’m talking in third person–must be a sign of hysteria.

I am at the point where I invited my alpha readers in to look at the first half of the manuscript and the response has been, some chit-chat. Raylene and Bri were talking amongst one another last night while I was at the game.

All I will say is Shelby needs more love peeps. Love Shelby! He’s a sweetheart.

So my typo for the week is this… I need help, no one wants to eat toads. She was supposed to be making TOAST.
