This is a No Burn, slice-of-life introduction to the children of Avaleigh’s Boys as they embark on their own journeys toward adulthood. It’s a bridge, a stepping stone to the next series in the Avaleigh’s Boys world. It is strongly suggested that Avaleigh’s Boys series be read first to ensure your enjoyment of this book. Since Havoc and Analise were babies, it’s been clear to all of Kaid’s clan that they’re fated mates. But as we all know, having a fated mate isn’t always a good thing. Especially not finding them before they’re even old enough to talk. Havoc’s always loved Analise, and done his best to stand beside her. Only lately, his best is just not good enough. His Wolf is wild, hard to control. And the young man Havoc is, isn’t much better. He craves a taste of freedom to feed both their needs for adventure. While doing nothing others his age haven’t done, he manages to do everything wrong; and it backfires on him. He’s being pushed into a destiny he didn’t bargain for and his entire clan stands against him as a result. Fate has done a number on Havoc and Analise. They were set up for failure from birth. Most shifters have the opportunity to grow, make mistakes, celebrate successes, and then find their fated mate after all the teenage angst has long been left behind them. Unfortunately, Analise has had to bear witness to all of Havoc’s dabbling. And she’s had enough. All she wants is for Havoc to let her go, break their bond so that they can both move on without further pain to the other. But he won’t let go without a fight. All of the sons and daughters of Avaleigh’s Boys choose a side—standing behind one or the other. Who they choose to support, will result in either Analise or Havoc, being forced from the clan. Or will they? Is there a way for the clan to support both as they struggle through obstacles no fated mate, much less a teenager, should ever have to face? Avaleigh’s Boys has always been synonymous with family, belonging, and love. Their stories have pulled at our heartstrings for years. Now, their sons and daughters step up to do the same as they make their way toward their destinations in life. Not all will end up where they think they will. Some of them have yet to even decide which path to follow, but all of them will have their own road to travel alone. Though one day, life might be kind enough to bring them back to where it all started—Avaleigh’s Boys. This story is fiction. All characters and situations are products solely of the author’s imagination. Any similarity between people living or dead is purely coincidental.

I write Paranormal, SciFi and Fantasy Romance. Why, you may ask? Romance, because who doesn’t love a good romance, and the lack of reality in the story lines - because, well, normal is highly overrated. I’m 55, I have two kids, one 32 and one 12 (yes, God does have a sense of humor), one grandchild, one husband, and a menagerie of animals. Literally, too damn many things that eat wandering around our property. I love to cook, and I am a voracious reader, though since I started writing I don’t get as much time to read as I once did. I am a homebody and prefer my writing/reading time to a crowd. I have had stories and fictional characters wandering around in my head for as long as I can remember. I started letting them out into the real world and surprisingly, people have loved them. I am a Self-Published Author, and I like it that way because I can decide what and when to write. I am by no means a formal, polished, properly structured individual and neither are my stories. But people seem to love the easy emotion and passion that naturally flow from them. A bit of a warning though, there are some “triggers” in them that certain people should avoid. I’m a firm believer that you cannot have light without the dark. You cannot fully embrace the joy and elation that my people eventually find if you do not bear witness to their darkest hours as well. So please be sure to read the warnings supplied with each of the synopses about my books before you buy them. I've got three series published at this time, Avaleigh's Boys - PNR, Whispers From the Bayou - Fantasy PNR, Haven - a SciFi, and three more in process. I’m a bit sarcastic, scathing actually, and a smartass to boot, so if I offend you, it is most likely not intentional. But be prepared because it probably won’t be the last time. I’m always glad to hear from readers; those who have followed me from the beginning, and those who have just found my people. So feel free to look me up and say hello, or just follow along; either way, I’m glad to have you.
