Happy Saturday!

I actually managed to post this a day early – go me! Hope you’re well. 🙂

Here’s a snippet from “To Catch His Mate,” published by JMS Books and just re-released today. It’s a shifter mystery/romance, and my one and only novel to date. I tend to write shorter stories due to my work schedule and life commitments. I enjoyed writing this story, a lot.

This is a scene between Felix and his adopted father, Ben, who’s dying in the hospital.

“What’d you go and do, old man?” I asked, as I pulled up a chair beside him.

He tried to lift his left hand, but couldn’t. I picked it up and held it in both of mine. “Sorry,” Ben whispered.

“Nothing to be sorry for, Ben. You took me in when I had no one else. I owe you my life.” I kissed his hand and held it to my cheek.

“No,” he whispered again. “I owe you…mine.” I saw him struggle to get up, so I found the remote to raise the bed. He continued, “I wanted to say…something…to you before I…”

“Okay, Uncle Ben.”

“I…love you, son. You’ve made me…proud.” I closed my eyes and felt moisture on my cheeks. “I love you, too, Dad.” Because, that was what he was to me.
