#WIP IT WEDNESDAY Excerpt from the 3rd book in my Supernaturals series.
Welcome to my post on WIP IT UP WEDNESDAY blog hop. Don’t forget to hop over to our home page to find links for more WIP posts or for instructions on how to join the hop. http://wipitupwednesday.blogspot.co.uk/
I’m apologizing now if I don’t get to read anyone else’s work. My father-in-law went into the hospital last week, so needless-to-say, I’ve been a bit busy and distracted.
This week I’m sharing from my current WIP, the third book in my Supernaturals series. As of right now, this novel doesn’t have a title, release date, or cover. This scene starts the novel.
---
“You have got to be kidding me,” I said, looking from my laptop to my boss, who is also my best friend. I work for and am friends with one of the most popular supernatural romance authors to date, Destiny LeShae, also known as Dakota Landry by those of us who grew up with her. She grinned connivingly at me as she walked around to my side of my desk with a cup of coffee in hand, but said nothing. “You want me to do what?” I asked. The incredulity in my voice was more than evident.
“You read the email,” she said, smiling sadistically at me before taking a sip of her grande, nonfat, sugar-free, pumpkin spice latte.
“Yeah, I read it. I just didn’t think you were being serious. Why me? Your publisher is asking you to do it.” I pointed to the spot on the screen that showed that this was a forwarded email originally meant for Dakota.
“And I’m asking you to do it for me. You’re the one who offered to be my personal assistant after all.” The annoying smirk on her face was aggravating me more than her request. She knew this was an opportunity I’d dreamed of, but would’ve never seriously thought would happen.
“This is a bit more than research, basic editing, and social media maintenance. I mean…” I let my words trail off as I turned back to the screen to read the email again.
“Well, technically it’s research,” Dakota said, pulling my focus back onto her.
That was true, but more research than I ever thought I’d do for her. She did the more hands-on stuff. I just searched Google for her.
“But don’t you want to be the one to go?” I asked. “You’re the author after all. I mean, I don’t mind going with you, but one would think you would prefer getting the information firsthand.”
My insides were shaking at the thought of what Dakota was asking me to do in her place. Every wet dream I’ve ever had either while lying in bed or in a daydream, told me how bad I wanted to do this, but…but…I couldn’t do it. I wasn’t the type of girl who did things like that.

That’s it for today. I hope you enjoyed it.

Deception by Laura Ranger Release Day Blitz
Izzy has had a long line of liars make up her past. It’s her history that makes her in high demand as an Art Authenticator. She can spot a fraud, as well as a forgery with little effort.
Izzy no longer makes room in her life for men since she knows all men lie. She would rather have a dog. That is until Caleb Matthews sweeps her off her feet with his genuine, sincere, no-nonsense way. Over time, she allows him to break down her walls of mistrust. She learns how to make allowances for people that may be flawed, and not always entirely honest. But is that wise?
Whatever you imagine the end will be may be a bit of truth, but you won’t see the twist until it’s too late.
The middle of three children, Izzy had two brothers. Her older brother by three years, Michael, was wonderful. He was trustworthy, loving and kind. He always stuck up for and protected her. They were very close.
Then there was Gabriel, her younger brother by two years. The last time there was a relationship this loving, God threw Lucifer out of heaven.
Malicious and vindictive, Gabriel was a liar. Izzy had caught him in many lies, but whenever she tried to tell their mother he was lying, Shelly always brushed her aside and let it go. It infuriated Izzy. At times like that, Gabriel taunted her with smug looks and snide comments. She could never see them being friends. Ever.
Hugo, the Greenblat Great Dane, was as gentle as a kitten and as big as a small horse. Some of the neighbor kids called him Huge-O due to his size. Izzy had always loved dogs because they never lied, were always loyal and faithful.
She thought life was perfect. She soon learned a perfect life was just an illusion. All made up of smoke and mirrors. Reality shattered her happy existence.
The lie that destroyed Izzy’s ten-year-old world came when her parents announced they were ending their relationship, but not by divorce. They had never married.
Her brothers accepted it. She couldn’t. She was devastated that two people she should have been able to trust, had lied to her throughout her life. She had too many questions. What did it mean? How would they be treated? Did this mean she and her brothers were bastards? Her biggest question was if her parents were splitting, would one of them take Gabriel with them? The questions kept coming with no one answering them.
Izzy decided then she would never trust anyone but Michael again.
Laura Ranger is a natural storyteller. She has been turning all of life into stories since she was young. This mother of one, grandmother of three began writing her fictitious stories down to the delight of her family and friends. She’s been writing her tales for over twenty years. She became a published author when she put one of her short stories in a Christmas anthology in support of feeding children around the world, entitled Eight ‘Til Christmas. Once she saw one of her stories in print, she will tell you she can’t stop.
In addition to Deception, she co-authored Rogue. Currently, Laura’s fully ensconsed in writing a novel on good versus evil, Royalty. She’s been working on a series called Lessons, which she envisions parents reading with their children. She discovered while writing the series, the lessons addressed throughout the story speak to both children and adults. Additionally, She has numerous ideas for additional novels and adding more all the time, it’s just a matter of completing each in turn.
Laura will tell you, “God blessed me with a natural gift of storytelling; it is up to me to use that gift to the best of my ability.”

#WIP IT WEDNESDAY Excerpt from Outcast, Supernaturals Book 2, a Paranormal Romance
Welcome to my post on WIP IT UP WEDNESDAY blog hop. Don’t forget to hop over to our home page to find links for more WIP posts or for instructions on how to join the hop. http://wipitupwednesday.blogspot.co.uk/
This week I’m continuing from my now New Release, Outcast, Supernaturals Book 2, a paranormal romance. This scene is a continuation from the last. We are still in the chapel, and some of the guests aren’t happy that Leigh will be sticking around for photos.
---
“Mrs. Carmichael…” Martin started to say, though his eyes followed Leigh and me.
“My name is Danielle, and before you say a word, Martin, I have a question for you.”
“And that is?” He bristled at her informal use of his name.
“Are you immediate family?”
“No. I…”
“Are you part of the wedding party?”
“No. I…”
“Then I will have to ask you to leave. I will see you and the rest of our guests in a few minutes out in the gardens.”
When he didn’t make a move to leave, she leaned close to him and said so low that I know Leigh couldn’t hear, “I’ve given into all of your demands, but I’m getting sick of you. If you would like for my husband and I to stay with the pack, you had better back off. Everyone else here can deny her all they want. I will not. She’s my sister, and she’ll be in my wedding photos. She has told me that after this weekend, she is done with our family for good, so you will let me have this or we will find another pack.”
Martin jerked as if she had smacked him, but he nodded. I could tell the news about Leigh not returning pleased him.
Leigh’s parents tried to look stoic at Danielle’s revelation about Leigh’s decision, but I could feel the sorrow and regret rolling off them. Leigh continued to look at her hands, at the stage, and not at the drama playing out behind us. I could feel the fear and defeat emanating from her. I couldn’t comfort her the way she needed, the way I yearned to do. My touching her the way I was had garnered some curious and unhappy stares from the rest of the pack still in the room who weren’t watching Danielle and Martin. I didn’t care what they thought, but I needed to make a better effort of controlling my emotions until I was away from the pack. They needed to think I was simply trying to be a good friend to Danielle and Dave. My attraction to Leigh, desire for her, could put her in danger.

That’s it for today. I hope you enjoyed it.

#Suncatcher by Robin Leigh Anderson Release Blitz 6-20-16
In the far future Terran asteroid miner Lt. Ard Jay Solstad crash-lands on a faraway unknown planet during a meteor storm and must survive for at least three months before the signal bouy can reach someone to dispatch rescue. Ard is stunned to meet the last survivor of the planet, a silicon-based humanoid who looks like the stained glass suncatcher he had in his window as a child.
Despite the odds they fall in love as they both try to survive on what they can glean from his ship---glass for her---and carbon-based foods for him from the planet. But, facing almost certain death as she cannot physically leave her planet, Ard must leave her behind when the droid ship arrives to rescue him.
Three years later now Captain Solstad returns with a full complement of miners for the lucrative claim that basically gives him the planet, and settlers to repopulate the empty planet…to find his beloved wife alive, and his SON, half Terran and half Preth. TeeCee’s and their son’s telepathic abilities aid in the investigation of colony bigots and prevent tragedy, while the community and the surviving Preth come to terms with their existence and their changed world.
Ard’s able efforts, together with his trusted Commissioner of Police Jameson, to establish a generational world for the Terrans and the remaining Preth, bring Ard to a stunning point in the evolution of humanity.
Robin Leigh Anderson was born in the Montana Rockies and escaped to California in the early 1970s. She attended school in Montana, Washington State, and California, eventually settling in beautiful Santa Barbara with child and cats where she lived for 38 years before escaping sans grown child and late cats to Northern California. An advocate of reinventing oneself, Ms. Anderson dabbled in many of the major disciplines of life, providing fodder for the writing she pursued since she was eight. She has won numerous awards at writing conferences over the years, and was staff of the prestigious Santa Barbara Writer Conference for ten years. She has published numerous articles and short stories in her lifetime. She taught “crash-and-burn” intensive writing seminars in Santa Barbara and was the moderator of a writers’ critique group. She still conducts occasional seminars and enjoys editing others’ works, words being her all-consuming passion, as she writes in several genres.

The woman stared back for a long moment, then said unsurely, “Room service?”
Shaking my head, I said, “Nope, sorry, I didn’t order anything. Someone must have given you the wrong room number.”
The woman looked down at the note in her hand, then up to the number on the door. She shook her head and reached for her cell phone to presumably call the kitchen. At the same time, she started slowly backing away from my room. Watching the mountain of food move further down the hall away from me, leaving behind the most succulent of aromas, I thought seriously about stopping her and taking the food anyway, then the image of myself stuffing my face to the point of making myself sick in an attempt to soothe the anger and sadness that was burrowing a hole in me angered me and I started to slam the door shut.
“Wait. Sorry,” a male voice called from the other end of the hall. Both the woman and I turned to see a hunk of a man walking quickly toward us. I recognized him at once as Ryan.

#WIP IT UP WEDNESDAY Excerpt from Outcast, Supernaturals Book 2
Welcome to my post on WIP IT UP WEDNESDAY blog hop. Ladies, I’m so sorry that I haven’t been around for the last month or so. I have had bit of hectic few weeks.

This week I’m continuing from my now New Release, Outcast, Supernaturals Book 2, a paranormal romance. This scene takes us back to the chapel. The wedding is over and the guests are heading to the reception area. The family and wedding party have stayed behind for pictures.
---
I stepped off the stage the moment the guests started to leave out with the intent of catching Leigh before she could leave. To my surprise, she didn’t immediately flee the room. She had remained seated with her eyes downcast to allow everyone else to file past her out the door. Her cowering demeanor told me that she was trying desperately to hide from the other guests.
I reached her as the last few people on her side of the chapel left and she stood. She didn’t see me and was shocked when I blocked her path. She nearly ran into me, then almost fell over a pew when she backed up too far to avoid me.
“I’m so sorry,” I said, grabbing her arm to steady her and ignoring the energy passing between us where our bodies touched.
“No, I’m sorry. I didn’t see you,” she said, righting herself without touching me. When she looked up to truly see me, she sucked in a breath. I had to stop startling her.
We stared at each other for a long moment before she asked, “Did you need something?”
“I was coming to escort you to the stage for pictures.”
“Oh…I… I’m not… They don’t…” Her stammering for words was both heartbreaking and adorable.
“You’re Danielle’s sister, are you not?” Out of the corner of my eye, I could see Danielle and Dave entering the silent room and looking around for the source of everyone’s discomfort. The second Danielle saw me with her sister a light filled her eyes. She gripped Dave’s hand tightly and pulled him toward us. They only made it a few steps before her father cleared his throat. Danielle glared at him and continued walking.
Not noticing or pretending not to notice any of this, Leigh nodded her head slightly, and said, “But I’m not part of the wedding party, and I don’t think I’m wanted.”
“I wa…” I started to say, but Danielle interrupted me.
“I want you,” she said. “I did ask for all immediate family, and you’re my sister.” She said the last bit loud enough that it reverberated in the small room. “Ryan, please bring my sister with you. I’m getting hungry and would like to get these pictures out of the way.”
Mr. Alexander along with Mr. Carmichael, Martin, and a few others walked toward Dave and Danielle. Dave wrapped his arms around his wife in protection, but the stance she took said that she didn’t need it.
“I should leave,” Leigh said to me in a low voice, watching the coming confrontation.
“No,” I said and wrapped my arm around her just as Dave had done Danielle and started toward the stage. Subconsciously, she leaned into me, and I could feel her heart beating too fast. She was seconds away from a panic attack. “I’ve got you,” I said into her ear. The wolf inside me demanded I kiss behind that ear, to nibble the bare neck below it, to swoop her up and carry her away from the people who had the potential to harm her.

Excerpt from Betting on Bear:
Naya slowly closed her mouth, then swallowed. "Well..." Was Hardiman really not going to turn her in? Had she somehow slipped into an alternate universe?
When he glowered at her, she quickly gathered her thoughts. "I remember taking Sneezy to this local diner. The only places that would deliver to this hotel were off the charts expensive, and I didn't want to blow my per diem."
"What time?"
"Dinnertime." When he frowned, she added, "I think it was around six or six thirty. I remember the place was pretty empty, and when the food arrived, we found out why. We ate as much as we could force down and then-- That's it. I don't remember another thing until waking up this morning." She motioned toward her bed and its rumpled sheets.
Hardiman glanced at the bed. When he turned back around, the look on his face was intent, his eyes hooded. If she didn't know better, she'd say he was thinking about sex. But Hardiman, think about sex? They'd sooner see Artemis get married.
He was kind of cute though, in a big, bear-like, behemoth of a man kind of way.
And now she was the one who needed her head checked. Hardiman was the man out to get her. Not cute.
He turned the vials over in his hands. "Did you find anything else that didn't belong, or just these?"
"Just those. But I didn't really look."
He stood. "Let's look."
And wouldn't you know, he headed straight for her suitcase. She might not remember her evening, but she remembered the flimsy lingerie she favored, and that she'd thrown her dirty underthings into the suitcase when she got dressed that morning. "Stop!"
He flung the suitcase top open and looked back at her. "What?"
Naya raced to his side. "What are you doing?"
"Searching. This is the most likely—" His gaze fell onto the lacy panties lying on top. He took a deep breath. Red flashed up his neck and engulfed his ears.
A breath—the dirty shifter was smelling her underwear. She shoved him out of the way and slammed the suitcase shut. "You go search someplace else."
He chuckled, his ears still pink. "Yes, ma'am."

He paid the man and gave his little girl the treat, then walked her over to a bench.
She was busy working on the wrapper; as intent on it as a bomb expert trying to un-wrap a potentially highly explosive package.
Mark said, “Honey, wanna play a game with daddy?”
She looked up, one eye still intent on her ice-cream bar. “Sure! What kind of game?”
He smiled down to her and ruffled her hair, mussing it up a bit, “Hide and seek.”
Steve Soderquist started writing when he was seventeen. He left that to become a successful musician, spending many years on the road with numerous bands. He came off the road to have a ‘normal life’, but found the writing bug hadn’t left him.
He wrote a novella One for the Road and knew he had to keep going. There was so much he felt compelled to put on paper. Steve went on to pen the horror novel Farm House, When it was complete and those blessed two words ‘THE END’ were put down, he knew he’d come full circle and found his calling. Farm House had originally been publishing it with a company that has since closed their doors.
Steve’s always been an avid reader with an eclectic mix of favorite authors: Stephen King, V.C. Andrews, Jules Verne, J.R.R. Tolkien, James Clavell...so many. It’s his belief reading different genres, has enriched him as an author.
Now, as a full-time published author, Steve’s not through with some of the characters he introduced in his first two books. In addition to his first two works, he's completed and released Seeds, co-authoredRogue and has just finished Jessica, due out by year end. He has numerous other books at various stages of completion. Although he is a master at horror/thriller, he will tell you he doesn’t write genres, he writes books.
This year he became the co-owner of Foundations, LLC publishing company. As an author, he saw the need in the publishing world to help author's learn how to promote and sell their work. Instead of complaining about it, he's doing something about it. It's because of this, he's seeing his dilegent efforts pay off in the success of his company, proving there was a great need out there for authors to have a publisher show them the ropes.
