Love ONE TO LOVE
Oh, the delayed gratification!
I'm right in the middle of ONE TO PROTECT, which I LOVE--Derek + Melissa fans should be very happy with this one... *shivers*
and ONE TO LOVE keeps flashing in my mind every time I turn on Pandora! Every song has me diving down the rabbit hole after Kenny and her love affair with Mr. X.
Mr. X and his aloofness, his ice blue eyes and tattoos. What are all these secrets he's hiding? Why does he resist her? What happens when he finally stops?
I know the answers, of course, and they're HOT and shocking and thrilling...
l went on and made a playlist of all these songs driving me crazy. It's here: https://play.spotify.com/user/authort...

✥✥✥ ONE TO LOVE Exclusive Excerpt ✥✥✥
It's Teaser Tuesday... who wants a peek at Slayde?
ONE TO LOVE
by Tia Louise, (c) 2014
*unedited draft, subject to change*
✮ Everywhere Oct. 9! ✮
Everything went away when I was boxing. Elbows tight, my gloves were right at my cheekbones, a little brush before each hand shot out like a cannon, hitting with an explosive force I felt through my entire shoulder, down through my torso.
I didn’t know how long I’d gone at it before I finally let loose with my signature move, the Slayer Death Attack, a rapid-fire volley of jabs and hooks. High-volume punching not a single fighter could beat. Every time I used it, my opponent hit the mat. I was the victor.
It was so good. I was a junkie freebasing the best coke on the planet. All the shit was gone, and it was just the fight and me.
I felt the rumble rising at the base of my throat until I backed away, slamming my fists against the wall, resting my head on my gloves as I returned to this room.
It’s why I would’ve been the champ. I was young, and I was fit, and I could keep that shit up for days.
But in one moment, I lost it all. Those dreams were gone. I’d never have it again, just like my life would never be the same, just like I’d never find her.
Anger. Deep, dark, violent, and bitter anger stirred in my chest. It was the heat rising, and I opened my mouth to let out the rage…
That’s when I heard her voice, and I turned around.
Teetering on the edge of giving up, of quitting and losing all the ground I’d gained, she spoke to me through the fog of heartbreak. I looked up, and the noise died away.

Having a little fun with a hot recent release...
ONE TO LOVE
by Tia Louise, (c) 2014
*unedited draft, subject to change*
✮ Everywhere Oct. 9! ✮
Everything was cleaned and squared away by early afternoon, and I headed back to the front to return my key and check out.
I’d done my best to avoid members, and I’d only passed a brief greeting to Pete, who seemed to be the only trainer working this weekend besides Tammy. He was nice enough, but I didn’t take it any further.
A slender girl with light-brown hair pulled up in a long, messy ponytail was behind the bar now, and without even looking, I could feel her watching me closely.
“Hey.” She spoke fast, like a short order cook. “It’s Slayde, right? What brings you to The Jungle Gym?”
I was tired and hungry and not in the mood to answer questions, so I didn’t.
Without looking up, I went to my slot, where I found another bag waiting for me. Pulling it out, I shoved my key in its place, catching another whiff of what smelled like food in the mystery package. I wanted to go to the truck and open it right away, but when I turned around, the girl was doing something with her hands.
My brow lined as I watched her. She waved her hands in a sweeping motion then circled one around her finger. The entire time her eyes bored into mine as if they were attempting to communicate silently.
“What are you doing?” My voice was husky from not talking all day.
She straightened, blinking fast, and her cheeks flushed slightly. “I was asking if you spoke sign language.”
“Why would you ask me something like that?” I surveyed her appearance—long, tie-dyed smock over a white tank and jeans that were shredded at the knees. Around her neck were several necklaces in addition to the lanyard holding her key, and her fingers were covered in rings.
“You didn’t answer when I spoke to you, so I thought maybe…” Her light-brown eyes traveled down to my throat. “I just finished this novel about a guy with no voice. It was really hot.”
“I can speak just fine. I’m also tired and hungry. I’ve been here since seven, and I don’t feel like answering twenty questions.” Even that much explanation was pissing me off.
Her eyebrows rose, and she leaned forward on the bar, giving me a little smile. “I can make you a matcha-tea smoothie if you want. It’s my newest specialty. Very relaxing and full of protein.”
“I don’t like smoothies.” It was a lie. I didn’t have money to pay for it.
“Oh, I’m a wizard at them. You’ll love it.” She leaned back and eyed me up and down. “I’m Mariska, by the way.”
“I’ll take a pass, Mariska. I’m heading out.”
Her pink lips pressed together in a thin line. She was pretty. Hell, she was really pretty, but I wasn’t interested in female drama, much less from a hippie-chick who spoke sign language.
“You’re going to have to try one at some point. I’m here every day but Friday.” She gave me a wink, but I kept going. “See you tomorrow!”
