She's on the run... They have to have her... because with twins she'll have twice the protection, twice the security and double the pleasure. This story is a spinoff of sorts to the "Lone Wolf' and "Hunting the Hunter' stories. Some of the same characters will be in this story as well.

After his wife's death, Ronan dedicates his life to their daughter. Laura hates men and feels none of them can be trusted after her boyfriend walks out of her life with a cavalier 'it's been fun sweetheart.' Can two wounded hearts be made whole again or is the pain in their past too much for them to overcome?

***Finnegan Callahan is the son of an Irishman. He loves rye whiskey, women and gambling though he always leaves his women a bit more bitter and his gambling companions much richer. His take on life is that it is meant to be lived and live it he does-though he won't be doing so much longer if those he owes debts to catch up to him. What Finnegan needs is a chest full of money which of course he thinks is simply wishful thinking-until he finds the treasure map. ***Cassandra Little has always lived a cautious life. Daughter to a wealthy family and a father active in the government, her every move is seen and judged by society. Cassandra says she is content but knows deep down that there has to be something more-and that is why when her best friend Finnegan shows up at her bedroom window in the early morning hours with a treasure map and a proposition, Cassandra is quick to agree. ***Their journey together will take Cassandra far from home. Outlaws, debt collectors, bounty hunters and angry politicians plague them every step of the way. Will Cassandra and Finnegan find the treasure they seek? Take the journey with them as they discover who they really are, what really matters and that old friendships truly are the strongest foundations for true love.

Thanks for welcoming me to Wattpad! Hope you enjoy these first three chapters of GOTCHA!!! It's the first book in my "Tall, Hot & Texan" series. You can pick up the rest of GOTCHA, and the next book in the series, THE COP WHO STOLE CHRISTMAS, wherever ebooks are sold. You can find out more about it on my website! Hope to hear from you! -- Christie Craig "Funny, hot and suspenseful, Christie Craig's writing has it all!" -- Nina Bangs Macy Tucker was five years old when her beloved grandfather dropped dead in his spaghetti. At twelve, her father left his family in the dust. At twenty-five, her husband gave his secretary a pre-Christmas bonus in bed, and Macy gave him the boot. To put things lightly, men have been undependable. That's why dating's off the menu. Macy is focused on putting herself through law school -- which means being the delivery girl for Papa's Pizza. But cheesier than her job is her pie-eyed brother, who just recently escaped from prison to protect his new girlfriend. And hotter than Texas toast is the investigating detective. Proud, sexy...inflexible, he's a man who would kiss her just to shut her up. But Jake Baldwin's a protector as much as a dish. And when he gets his man -- or his woman -- Macy knows it's for life.

In one day, the world succumbed to a pestilence that decimated the living. In its place rose a new species: vicious, gruesome, wandering zombies with an insatiable hunger for the living. Still in her twenties, Cash has watched her friends die, only to walk again. An office worker with few survival skills, she joins up with Clutch, a grizzled Army veteran with PTSD. Together, they flee the city and struggle through the nine circles of hell, with nothing but Clutch's military experience and Cash's determination to live. As they fight to survive in the zombie inferno, they quickly discover that nowhere is safe from the undead...or the living. (100 Days in Deadland is a journey through the first poem in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, the classic tale on the horrors of hell... zombie apocalypse style!) (Note: This is a draft so please excuse any errors. The finished novel is available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook).
