Readers, (Trigger warning: mention of family loss), thank you to all of you who have faithfully read my works on here.  I know I've been gone for a long time, and I do apologize. I got behind during the holiday season, and then the start of the new year has been rough. I lost a close family member, another had to have major life-saving surgery within a week of getting home from the funeral, and then another close family member has been diagnosed with something semi-serious. With all of that happening, it's been a lot physically, emotionally, and mentally to deal with. I know I don't have to explain myself, but I just want to give a reason why there haven't been updates for months. I'm not sure how much longer it will be.  I'd like to get my feet on the ground and take a breath before thinking about updates.  I appreciate everyone, and I do plan on picking writing up again. I just need a minute to breathe.

Readers of Seduced by the Undertow and Strike Me Twice.  I've been trying to stay on top of weekly updates, but my schedule has been full. Next week I'm very busy with holiday/life things and I'm not sure if I'll get the two chapters out. I will do my best, but I don't know how I'll pull it off.  Thank you for the reads and support.

@Reading_Mermaid08 It's a busy week for all of us. Enjoy the holiday!

Two storms. One heart. No safe way out.
          
          Charlie Bishop is back in her hometown and right into the arms of two men she can’t outrun:
          
          Troy Maddox — her steady, loyal best friend who wants forever.
          Roman Cox — the reckless, blue-eyed bad boy she can’t forget.
          
          Troy wants her heart. Roman wants her tonight.
          And Charlie? She wants both… until the storms between them threaten to tear her apart.
          
          Love isn’t safe here.
          It’s electric.
          And sometimes, it strikes twice.
