NEW CHAPTER IS UP!!!

Robin and the Red Crow - Chapter Twenty-Seven - A Pair of Warm Hands (on Wattpad) 

Chapter Preview Below....

"Are you feeling too cold, Robin?" Holly asked, eyebrows furrowing in concern before a small smile crept onto her face."Here, watch this."

She removed her gloves, rubbed her hands together as one might wash their hands, and as she did so, they began to emit a soft yellow glow. She took one of his gloved hands in her own, and Robin felt his wool glove begin warming where she held it, as if it were near a cozy fire.

"That's handy," Robin mused at her magic.

"Ha ha," Holly said, mock-laughing at his unintended pun. "Good one." She took his other hand to warm it as well.

"Actually, I didn't—" Robin began before laughing and shaking his head. "That was a good one."

Holly looked up at him, still beaming, and Robin noticed that even her eyes seemed to be smiling. She lifted her hands to warm his face next, and Robin instinctively followed her movements, keeping his hands in place over hers.

Robin didn't know what came over him, but he started leaned into her touch, closing his eyes. Savoring the heat of her hands on his cheeks, and the texture of her slightly calloused skin against the numbness of  his own.

Robin mused to himself that  her hands were a mix of soft and rough,  just like her.

When he opened his eyes, he found her watching him. Something in her eyes had changed. Her face had softened, but she was watching him as if she were holding her breath, anxiously waiting to see what he would do next.

Robin shifted her hands on his face. Moving her grasp so that her hands were further back on his face, her lower fingers under his ear and advancing into his hair. Her forefinger and thumb cradling his jaw.

Inviting her to kiss him...

and maybe not stop kissing him, if she liked.

Her thumb trembled against his jaw, moving ever-so slightly as if in consideration.

Happy Birthday, Darlin' - Birthday Surprise (on Wattpad) https://www.wattpad.com/1306433904-happy-birthday-darlin%27-birthday-surprise?utm_source=web&utm_medium=tumblr&utm_content=share_reading&wp_uname=MaryKatieFazio&wp_originator=vGouKR%2FBzTfsxr3e70lipKaACLV0Bh0E4rJEJqnx%2FAWoZWbRBtyy8%2FddabgPNCyF9k8eq8rOzcVrCYaoCJmiJZwstfHPLGJTR9dHRq8wpdkOhojdEbSP0Rn8l6kIK1AV You've been with John Dutton a few years now, and you knew your place. You had no doubt he loved you, but when it came to holidays, birthdays or dates, you knew that the ranch always came first. At first it was hard to get used to, but eventually you realized that those were all things you could do without as long as you had him by your side. But everyone knows that John Dutton is an observant man. He's noticed little things, little subtle changes about you and the way you act around him. What most don't know is that he has a romantic streak. Will John step out of his comfort zone and let you see that side of him, or will he simply let things stay the same?

When the Strength of Men Wavers - A Tombstone Fanfiction

Doc Holliday x original character

"Ida Marlene Earp did her best to be a lady, but her brothers taught her that character was not found in how well one adhered to societal norms."

After Morgan's death, Ida Earp is determined to keep those she has left alive. Without giving the men much choice, she joins Wyatt's Vendetta Ride. Ida falls into taking care of a certain friend of Wyatt's, the one and only Doc Holliday, on the trail for vengeance.

NOTE: I do my best to stay away from distinctive physical descriptions of Ida so that loyal fans of "_______ x reader" (It's me. I'm fans.) can enjoy the story a little more! [Other than Ida Earp and some minor characters, I do not own/did not create any of the characters written in this work.]

Here’s your exclusive excerpt!

“Oh, Jillian, I’d like you to meet my son, Lucas.” I meet those pretty green eyes, now sparkling with amusement. Of course a dog named Peanut would belong to this woman. She named her cadaver dog, Emo, after all. Hell, I knew she recently moved to the area—Sloane mentioned it more than once—but I wasn’t expecting to run into her at my mother’s assisted-living home. That’s a little too close for comfort. “So you do have a first name; Lucas, huh?” “You already know each other?” Mom looks back and forth between us. “We do. How are you doing, Jillian?” She adjusts the small furball she’s holding in her arms. “Good, thanks.” I turn to my mother to explain, “Jillian and I met working on a search last summer.” Despite my immediate attempt to identify our connection as a professional one only, I see Mom’s mind already at work behind the gleam in her eyes. Great.

Book Blurb:

Dog trainer and handler, Jillian Lederman, is moving with her pack to Libby, Montana, a place where she has made friends and hopes to find a fresh start. It’s time. For years, she’s just been keeping her wounds fresh by staying in Missoula—where there were regular reminders of all she’s lost—while the rest of the world has continued to move forward.

Perhaps the new house, the beautiful mountains, and a certain pair of clear, blue eyes hold the promise of new beginnings.

Since changing careers years ago, former FBI agent Lucas Wolff has found a much better work-life balance as a member of High Mountain Trackers. Still able to serve his community, he has also been carving out a comfortable existence for himself and is not looking to make any changes to it anytime soon. Not even for a particular bold and ballsy redhead he’s been trying to avoid.

That turns out to be an impossible feat when a plane crash during a blizzard sets both of them on the trail of a young girl, all alone in the mountains. But it soon becomes evident they are not the only ones looking, and staying safe means sticking close together.

What a way to end the Poplar Falls series! After all the triumphs Sonia has been through with Ricky throughout the other five books, I’m so 𝗧𝗛𝗥𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗗 that Sonia 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 found the happy ever after she truly deserved.

There were a few storms thundering her way but Foster was there with an umbrella and heart full of warmth… and 𝙡𝙤𝙫𝙚.

Similar to Elle’s story, I wasn’t really too interested in Sonia or her story. I read the book more-so to finish off the series. However, I actually enjoyed reading her story. If there was anyone who deserves a happily ever after, it’s Sonia.

Throughout the entire series, it’s been expressed how much she has given herself to a man who doesn’t appreciate her nor returns her love. Ricky is a taker who’s sucked Sonia dry until there was nothing left and she sworn off love.

Foster couldn’t be anymore perfect. Off the bat, they’re opposites yet one and the same. She’s outgoing and he’s more reserved. They both are withering a divorce, discovering life as newly singles while also subconsciously wanting to equally love and be loved in return. Their chemistry has been present from day one, regardless of their spouses at the time.

Their story seemed too short and a bit rushed. There were certain occurrences that I wished were more detailed and expressed, rather than grazed over and subtly mentioned. Still, the book was overall enjoyable and filled me with such bittersweet emotions now that Poplar Falls has come to an end.

Robin and the Red Crow - Chapter Thirty-Five - Why You Shouldn't Love Her (on Wattpad) 

~SNEAK PEAK BELOW~

"I'll be back soon. We'll see your brother off together when I return."

Robin gave her a small wave as Holly touched her heal and swung her arm in a circle, disappearing with Cookie at her heels.

As soon as Robin stepped back into the house, Otto groaned from the settee. "I thought she'd never leave."

Robin shot his brother a wary look. "It's her house."

"Yeah, well, did she buy it?" Otto snorted. "Not with what she's making selling jewelry, I bet. Though, I'm sure real estate around here isn't worth much." He grinned cheekily at Robin. "But hey, if you marry her, it'll all be yours."

"You're not helping with that," Robin muttered.

Otto let out a disbelieving laugh. "Marry her? Seriously? Come on, Robin." He stood up from the settee and smacked his brother playfully on the arm. "I get that she's in love with you—why wouldn't she be? You're a catch in London, and here, you might as well be a myth."

Robin scowled as Otto continued. "But her? Snap out of it, Robin. She's not that pretty, her interior design makes grown men cringe, she almost killed your brother, and I mean-you don't even know what she was up to before you met her. She has a dark past, Robin. Trust me, It would be very easy for her to become who she once was again, and you don't want to get in the way of that."

"Otto," Robin warned, poking an angry finger into his brother's chest. "Listen. This is only time I will be arguing with you about this. You don't think she's that pretty? Great! That means I don't have to compete with you for her affection. We both know you'd win in a heartbeat if it came down to looks."

Otto snorted, looking irritated at his bother,  but didn't argue.

"And her interior design? Every corner of this house reflects who she is. I feel like I'm living in a museum of her soul, and honestly, there might not be much space left on these walls, but I hope one day, I'll add some of mine to it."

Otto's face shifted, disappointment darkening his expression. "Robin..."

"I'm not done," Robin interrupted. "You think she's some kind of powerful witch I should fear? Maybe you're right. But while you've been a sorcerer your whole life, I'm just a magician with healing powers. I'm lucky to have someone powerful enough to protect me, since I can't do it myself. Especially after you tried to kill me."

"I was testing if she would—"

"No, Otto," Robin cut him off. His voice was steady, but Robin felt like at any moment his emotions might sabotage his speech. "I'm tired of you judging my feelings for her. You don't even know her, and you're not even trying to. You've been here, nitpicking and diminishing who she is the entire time you have been here. It's fine, you don't have to love her. But I do. And the more you try to talk me out of it, the less I like you—not her."

Otto let out a deep sigh, his demeanor softening into something almost regretful. "Robin, don't do this to yourself."

"Why?" Robin asked, laughing bitterly. "Why do you care so much?"

Otto hesitated, his cocky attitude fading. "Because I really need you to not be in love with her."

"What?"

Otto rubbed his chin, his eyes calculating as they settled on a spiderweb in the corner of the parlor. He looked back at Robin, his gaze steady.

"I need you to come with me." Otto tapped his foot and raised his hand, summoning a portal. Before Robin could react, Otto pulled him through.
