Pieces of Me TEASER #1

Pieces of Me

He doesn't say anything--he just pulls me into his arms and I let the waves of emotion crash down the

barriers I had so carefully constructed, smashing them to the ground with tsunami force, and I let it

because I know that Holden's arms are going to keep me upright.

A years worth of tears spill onto his shirt—I didn't think it was possible to cry any more but I was

wrong. He holds me in his arms until my eyes are red and dry and my breathing is nothing more than

gasps of air and gulps as I try to regain a little of my composure. Despite the hindering hiccups, I feel

like I can breathe for the first time in a long time.

“So what does this mean?” he asks.

“It means that I'm trying. Trying to be normal, to be the kind of girl who gets all giddy over her new

boyfriend, the kind of girl that smiles. But I'm not quite there yet. It means, that I'm asking for just a

little time.”

“Time I can give. But Aria, don't take too long.”

The "C" Word

It's probably the scariest word out there. At least I can't really think of a single word that effects me as much as the "C" word does. Just 6 little harmless letters strung together and it leaves me completely breathless. I guess I should probably start at the very beginning. Last August I went in for my normal yearly exam. My midwife Sue asked me how I was feeling and I was literally just complaining like a little whinebag at the time. I told her I had a super bad cough that wasn't going away no matter how many different kind of over the counter cough medicine I had been taking. Nothing was working and sometimes I would wake up in the middle of the night gasping for air. She felt my throat and said I felt "knotty" so she wanted me to get some labwork done. I asked why and she seemed hesitant to tell me. I told her I was just going to go home and google it and jump to the worse-possible-scenario conclusion. So she told me that it could be just a coup...

Sneak Peek: In the Shadows

We are less than a month away from release day! Eek! So I thought it was about time I started sharing some teasers.... Paperback! “Grey, do you think it’s too late?” He nods sadly. “I’m sorry, Mia, but if they have her, I’m not sure if there is anything we can really do.” The world distorts itself around me like a Fun House mirror, making me feel dizzy and nauseated. My lungs collapse in on themselves as the furious beating of my broken heart threatens to slam right out of my ripped open chest. “I—can’t—breathe,” I gasp as Grey pulls me into his arms and holds me close to his chest, whispering words that I don’t understand. My tears fall freely, staining his shirt with wet splotches but he doesn’t care, he continues to hold me tight, comforting me just like he has done before.
