Missing in Action - Excerpt

COMING THIS SPRING

 

CHAPTER ONE

 

Tyler

 

The nightmare was the same again. The dust, the blood, the screaming. Then his own cries as he looked beyond his knee and saw nothing but torn and charred flesh. Tyler awoke with a start, dazed, sweating, disorientated. He thrashed on the bed before he took in the small bedroom, the sun streaming through the open curtains. He fell back with a gasp. The nightmares even invaded his afternoon naps now, while the flashbacks were at times near damn continuous. A sudden thud on the door sounded like a gun firing and startled him. He didn’t get visitors, who could it possibly be? He shuffled to the edge of the bed and put his feet down, relieved he’d kept his leg on to sleep. Down the short hallway, he saw a shape behind the frosted glass of the door. He only wore shorts, but he didn’t stop to pull on a T-shirt. He swung it open.

2024 Writing Update - Clear Water Creek Book 4 Cover Reveal

 After a few very difficult and challenging months, I am pleased to announce that I will return in the spring to writing m/m romance as Scarlet Blackwell and gay erotica as Amber March.

My first release is likely to be the fourth book in the Clear Water Creek series and is entitled Missing in Action,

Readers of this series will know its books are my darkest to date and feature such themes as rape, domestic abuse, murder and snuff. While book 1 can possibly be read as a standalone, books 2 and 3 need to be read in order, and characters and events from book 1 are alluded to. Book 4 needs to be read after books 2 or 3 or after all 3 books for maximum enjoyment. It features returning characters Finn, Brandon, Jonah and Jordan amongst others and a brand new couple, Holden and Tyler.
