Excerpt from The Devil You Know

We just might die tonight, and it won’t even be monsters that kill us.

Seth Tanner hunched low over the handlebars of his black Hayabusa motorcycle and urged the roaring engine to eke out a bit more speed.

Behind him, his partner Evan Malone wrapped his arms tight around Seth’s midsection and tucked his helmet against Seth’s shoulder blades.

The rev of a truck close behind them told Seth their pursuers weren’t ready to give up. Then a shot fired, changing the whole game.

“Fuck,” Seth muttered and wove from one side of the lane to the other, desperate to keep the goons from getting a clear shot.

The gunman fired a second time and a third. Seth’s luck wasn’t going to last forever, and then one of the bullets would hit Evan, the bike, or him. Seth had a good idea who had hired the hitmen, and he doubted they showed up on a dark Ohio road just to send a warning.

A light ahead drew Seth’s attention, and he skidded into the gravel lot of a cinder block roadhouse. Neon beer signs cast a crimson glow that attracted a row of pickups and Harleys. Red paint on white walls proclaimed it to be Charley’s Place.

I’ll take my chances on a bar fight over being shot in the back.

The charcoal Ford truck chasing them never slowed, rumbling past the bar too fast for Seth to get a good look, and then it was gone, swallowed by the night.

He faced the motorcycle toward the road, sheltered between a beat-up green F-150 and a red Silverado with a gun rack in the back window. Seth felt sure that he and Evan would be no more welcome inside than they’d been with the guys who chased them, so when their attackers didn’t return, Seth hit the gas and headed back the way they came.

His heart didn’t stop pounding until he slowed at the entrance to the campground where they had parked their RV. While it wasn’t late, Seth was hyper-aware of the rumble of the motorcycle’s engine, not wanting to draw attention. When they pulled up in front of their site, he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Doesn’t look like anyone’s been here,” he said to Evan as he climbed off the bike and secured it. His body still hummed with adrenaline, and Seth scanned the area for danger as Evan followed him to the RV’s door.

Locks and security alarm aside, the fifth-wheeler and black pickup that towed it were also protected by magical wardings, courtesy of friends with supernatural abilities. The protections recognized Seth and Evan but were designed to keep out intruders.

Seth turned on the lights and gasped when he saw the blood on Evan’s jacket and realized his boyfriend was leaning heavily against the wall.

“You’re hit.” Seth helped Evan to sit at the table and went to fetch their medic kit.

These two still manage to amaze me
Things are all wonky in this episode -
The guys have a lot less "together time" but IMO it was necessary for both to get some closure

The enemy is on to their game and has placed a few "welcome home" surprises for them
One that may break Seth - Can he see past the falsehoods?
Evan has his own hands full with the resurfacing of his "brother"

This had all the action and suspense with a bit more angst
Despite the individual trials the relationship between these two still tugs at my heart strings

Author Interview
Q: When did you first realize that you wanted to be a writer? 
A: I decided I wanted to be a writer when I was fourteen. That determined my college major (history) and my graduate work (MBA) and my pre-publication career (marketing).

Q: How many books have you written? 
A: Around 40, not counting anthologies.

Q: How long does it usually take you to write a book? 
A: It depends on the series and the length of the book, but for romance, about one month for a first draft, and then another month or so for the editing and polish.

Q: How did you come up with the idea for your book? 
A: Sometimes it’ll start with a character, and in other cases it’s the location or a plot point. My magic phrase is, ‘and then what?’

Q: Where is your favorite place to write? 
A: Anywhere with a view of the ocean!

Q: When you develop characters do you already know who they are before you begin writing or do you let them develop as you go?
A: It’s a mix. I have a good sense of who they need to be for the story, but I learn a lot about them as the book progresses. That’s the fun part—there are surprises, even for me!

Q: Do you aim for a set number of words/pages per day? 
A: I am for 10-12 pages a day, but that varies. I have a publication schedule so I try to keep the writing on track to get the books ready for their launch dates, but sometimes life gets in the way.

Q: What is the hardest thing about writing? 
A: Getting past the the 2/3 mark of the manuscript. That’s always where the crisis of confidence occurs!

Q: What is the easiest thing about writing? 
A: The days when the story flows and the action happens on its own and I’m just along for the ride.

Q: Does writing energize or exhaust you? 
A: Both, depending on the stage in the process. I love creating, and I feel drained by editing.

Q: What has been one of your most rewarding experiences as an author? 
A: Whenever someone tells me that my book got them through a rough patch. I’ve had times when books were my refuge, and I’m really happy to be able to have a book that does that for someone else.

Q: What do you do when you’re not writing? 
A: Lately, we’ve been watching a lot of Korean paranormal TV shows. They’re really good!

Q: What do you love best about your current book? 
A: There are some new insights into the backstory of the characters that we haven’t seen before, and it was fun to get to explore that.

Q: What is your next project?
A: I’m currently finishing up the first draft of No Surrender, the next Badlands book!
