About The Author:
I'm a
new self-published author who just got introduced to
the writing world early 2013. My aunt suggested that I write
a story because
I'm an avid reader but I waved it off and left it alone.
Well this year, a story
came to me and I went with it. It took me a little bit but I
finally got a
story idea that worked and now I can't stop or control the
characters/stories
that keep popping up in my
head.
I'm born
and raised in Canada and I live with my very
wonderful and supportive husband, Michael. We don't have any
children (yet)
unless you count our two cats. He's been my rock through
this whole new
experience for me. I couldn't have done it without him and
my friends and
family.
One of
the many things I love about this new chapter in my
life is that I'm learning constantly. It's never a dull
moment and as long as
one person likes my story, I am
happy.

Excerpt:
Two years
had passed since Sebastian Chelios had
died. Two years since being told that Jose Alvarez was still
out there. And two
years since I was told I was
pregnant.
Pregnant
with Sebastian’s
baby.
God, who
knew that that would happen?
A result of
my forgetfulness of taking
the pill. But it was well worth it when I looked into the
eyes of my baby.
Sebastian’s baby. Our
child.
I tried to
forget. But the calendar on
the wall beckoned like a tease, and my eyes darted to the
dreaded numbers. My
mind went back to those horrible couple of
days.
It
was like a bad horror movie in my
mind. Jose kidnapping me. Sebastian showing up. Us both
shot. The blur of the
hospital. My lover. Dead. Doctors and nurses in my face.
Then news of the
pregnancy. My head whirled when I got sucked into my
thoughts. Real, as if it
was yesterday. Realizing I would have to raise a child on my
own.
But
now…every day I looked at Antonio
and ached. His eyes had slipped from blue to brown, and he
reminded me so much
of
Sebastian.
His father
would never see him. Never
know him.
Fresh tears
filled my eyes but I shook
them off. I headed to the front door and made sure it was
locked. I looked out
the window and noticed a big black car a couple of houses
away. Relief
fluttered through me. The Feds were watching. Protecting me
and my son from
Jose.
A scream
came through the baby monitor
on my counter.
I ran up the
stairs in my small two
bedroom house and headed right to my baby’s room. After
throwing the door open,
I stood there, panting, gripping my chest as my heart raced
against my rib
cage.
My son lay
there, looking up at me
from his crib, a big smile on his beautiful chubby
face.
I sucked in
a breath and tried to ease
the thumping in my ears. “Hi, baby. You sure like giving
your mama a heart
attack, don’t
you?”
He
giggled. Yup, definitely
Sebastian’s
kid.
