Ian went to grab the dog’s leash. Bud started up his pee-pee dance, his massive body twisting and turning as he ran after Ian. His big paws thudded against the brand new hardwood he would never have spent that god-awful amount of money on had he realized a dog would pee on it. He looked back Charlie’s way. “You know there’s a whole forest out back for him to go in. He should be a free-range dog. Aren’t we taking away his dogness by putting him on a leash?” Charlie frowned his way as she refilled Kenzie’s cup. “Yes, he’s the mighty wolf dog, Ian. I watched him run away from a bunny the other day.” He grabbed the leash. “See, if he had to go out and hunt, he wouldn’t be such a shitty guard dog. Don’t even say it, you two. Say good words. Not Daddy words.” Charlie put a hand to her belly. “I swear this one will come out giving the world the finger and cursing.” Bud whined, running back and forth in front of the door. Ian sighed and attached the leash. He stepped outside and Bud took off, barking and jumping against the leash until he managed to drag Ian out onto the lawn where he immediately squatted in the middle of Charlie’s azaleas and started to take a crap. Yep. This was his life. Watching the dog crap. He was so building a fence. “You know you were supposed to be a guard dog. You were supposed to be a raging, feral beast who would take out anything in your way.” Sort of like Ian had been at one time. He’d been the bane of intelligence agencies. He’d been Dr. Death, raining down justice and protecting America. Now he was a dumbass with a mortgage, a dog who seemed to be a bit constipated, two tiny chaotic things, and another on the way. No one even let him kill people anymore. It was a never-ending cycle of waking up in the morning and seeing their faces, taking care of them, going to work, coming home, and going to bed with his wife. It was kind of fucking awesome. Sure, his younger self would likely tell him he’d sold out and he was a pathetic version of himself, but his younger self had been stupid as shit. His younger self thought a great time was following a known terrorist around for three weeks so he could find the cell. His younger self had needed a freaking shower, some decent food, and a comfy bed. And a dog who didn’t take his time with the poop. “Come on, Bud. Pinch off, man. We’ve got shit to do today.” Well, he did anyway. He was sure Bud would have a full day of licking his private parts and waiting for the girls to drop food. Bud seemed forever optimistic that one of these days the girls or Charlie was going to drop a ham in front of him. A butterfly landed on the bush next to Bud and that was when he went into protective mode. He barked, the deep sound threatening to anyone who didn’t know what a wuss he was, and he pulled hard at his leash. Hard enough to make Ian stumble and damn near break his toe on the garden gnome Alex had left as a joke. Hard enough to send Ian crashing down to his knee, pain flaring and making him curse. Bud twisted again and Ian tripped over the riding ladybug thing Kala liked to push around the yard. He landed flat on his back, looking up at the sky. Taken down by a freaking ladybug. And his back was spasming. The pain flared through him and he could feel his lower back seizing like a motherfucker. Bud suddenly blocked out the sky, his big doggie face staring down. “Don’t you dare.” It was too late. Bud licked his face and Ian realized he shouldn’t have gotten up that morning. Nope. He should have stayed in bed and then he would be warm and happy and not having his face licked by a gargantuan mass of body odor and a tongue that licked its own ass from time to time. God, if he didn’t die from breaking his spine he was going to catch some dog disease and waste away. Right here. Because he wasn’t sure he could move. “Bud, I need you to go get Charlie. Go on. Run and get her.” He let the leash drop. Bud simply sat down beside him. “Go get Charlie, boy. I think she’s got a ham for you. Go on.” Bud laid his big head down on Ian’s chest. Now he had a sleeping mutt and a garden gnome that was practically up his ass. He could feel the pointy cap thing attempting to violate him. “Ian? Ian, I need you.” Thank god. His wife would laugh her ass off, but at least she would be able to maybe help him up. “Ian, I think the baby’s coming.” Yep. It was that kind of day.FACEBOOK / TWITTER / WEBSITE / AMAZON AUTHOR PAGE

June
Never say never…Romance isn't an option for Holly
Greenwood. With her wedding planner career on the line she needs to stay
focused, and that means pleasing her demanding boss, not getting distracted by
her mind-alteringly hot neighbor…
Ex-Marine Kevin Vandemeer craves normalcy. Instead,
he has a broken-down old house in need of a match and some gasoline, a meddling
family, and the uncanny ability to attract the world's craziest women. At least
that last one he can fix: he and his buddies have made a pact to swear off
women, and this includes his sweetly sexy new neighbor.
After one hot night that looks a whole lot like a
disaster in the light of day, Kevin and Holly are about to learn that true love
doesn't play by the rules…
Kevin wasn’t sure why he was
surprised Holly was here. She was a wedding planner, and from what he’d seen so
far, she was a damn good one.
He’d been on his way out of the
room, needing a breather from the noise and the chaos of the reception when
he’d seen her at the table. He hadn’t planned on asking her to dance—hell, he
hated to dance—but he’d been desperate for a reason to talk to her.
When he sat back down at the table,
Tyler wore a smirk. “Crashed and burned, huh? I thought you were going to the
bathroom to take a piss.”
“I was. I just happened to run into
a friend.”
“Run into a friend, my ass. I
thought we’d sworn off women. I’ve held up my end of the bachelor brotherhood.
And let me add that I had no idea my balls could turn this blue.”
“She’s a friend,” Kevin said,
trying not to sound irritated and feed any more fuel to the fire.
“She’s his neighbor,” Matt said,
taking a sip of his beer, and giving Kevin a pointed look. “They’re friends.”
Tyler burst out laughing. “You got friend-zoned?”
“No,” Kevin said slowly, picking up
his drink, surprised Matt hadn’t told Tyler about the situation he’d stumbled
upon. “I was the one who said I wanted
to be friends.”
“Why?” Tyler asked, watching Holly
with a little more interest than Kevin liked. “She’s hot. Do you know if she’s
seeing anyone?”
“No.” Kevin’s irritation grew.
Tyler stood and adjusted his tie, a
smirk lighting up his eyes. “Screw the brotherhood. I think I’ll go over and
introduce myself.”
Kevin was up in a flash. “I don’t
think so.”
“Why not?” he looked surprised.
“She looks like she’d be worth a short break from my hiatus from women.”
Kevin stepped in front of his path,
his jaw set. “Because you’re a prick who will use her and toss her aside and
she deserves a helluva lot better than that.”
Matt was up in an instant, grabbing
Kevin’s arm. “Why don’t we get some air?”
“You like her,” Tyler said, slack
jawed.
“Of course he likes her,” Matt
said. “For someone so smart, sometimes you’re an idiot.”
“In my defense,” Tyler said. “He
said they were friends.”
“Okay,” Matt said slowly. “When was
the last time you convinced a woman
to be just a friend?”
“Never.”
“I rest my case, counselor.”
Tyler sat back down, and Matt
tugged on Kevin’s sleeve to get him to join them.
“I can’t believe you didn’t last even a single
week,” Tyler said.
“He didn’t last a single day,” Matt told him. “He slept with her
the night after our agreement to remain single.”
Tyler burst out laughing. “For a
tough-ass former Marine, I expected you to be the last holdout, man. At least a
week or two.”
