Texan to the bone and an unrepentant Daddy's Girl, BA Tortuga spends her days with her basset hounds and her beloved wife, texting her sisters, and eating Mexican food. When she's not doing that, she's writing. She spends her days off watching rodeo, knitting and surfing Pinterest in the name of research. BA's personal saviors include her wife, Julia Talbot, her best friend, Sean Michael, and coffee. Lots of coffee. Really good coffee.

Man, today is just *filled* with to dos!
Mondays always are super-duper busy; Mondays before travel are vicious. ;-)
Julia and I are celebrating our 7th anniversary together this weekend, heading to her stomping grounds of Colorado to watch a little rodeo, hike a little, soak in hot springs, and eat gluten free pizza.
*grins*
So, back to work.

Excerpt from Walking on the Sun -- available tomorrow!
The pain of it curled him into a ball far too small for a guy his size. MJ, giving himself up to that crispy bastard, then going up in a blaze of fucking glory. For him.
It wasn’t fucking right. It wasn’t fucking right at all, MJ gone.
Dead.
Fucking shit.
That had never been part of the deal. Never. MJ was supposed to take Sonny down and go on. All for one and one for MJ. That was how it worked.
This? This, Sonny couldn’t even take in. Couldn’t comprehend it.
No fucking way.
He pushed into the bathroom, washed his face, the cold water making him want to gag, to scream. Sonny avoided the mirror, not wanting to see. The window in the bathroom didn’t open, so he’d have to go out the hard way. Past the others.
Damn.
“Here’s your water.” Paddy put the glass on the sink. “Are you hungry?”
“No.” The word came out flat. Harsh. “No. I just. I gotta go.”
“Where?”
“Fuck off!” Sonny slammed his hand against the wall, feeling something crack. “I don’t give a fuck. MJ’s dead!”
“No, he’s not.”
It wasn’t fucking right. It wasn’t fucking right at all, MJ gone.
Dead.
Fucking shit.
