Acknowledgments

My Husband – For years he’s worked himself to death to give our family everything we needed or wanted. He encourages me every day to follow my dreams just like he did the day he told me to take the chance. He’s my best friend and I wouldn’t know what to do without him. Or the fact he listens to my non-stop rambling or my need to have a notepad with me in case I need to write something down that pops into my head.

My Three Kiddos – Every day I watch them grow up into little people who want to take over the world. Well in their own way that is. They are inspirations all by themselves. They love to find out what I’m working on and give me ideas. One of my favorite things is to ask them what I should have someone do or how they should act. Some of their ideas are wicked.

My Alphas – You guys rock big time! Thank you all for being the first to read the stories as they come alive. It means the world to me. Especially when you all start to get mad. That’s when I know I’m doing something right. And in doing so, pushing me to keep going with all the different plots that form in my head. I’m thankful to you all for being ready and willing to read and give your input.

My Knox Publishing People – Thank you guys for being such great people to work with.

Liz – My sister from another mister, my best friend, and Publisher/Boss/Co-Writer extraordinaire. You’re my go-to when I need it. I love working with you on all that we do. No matter how much chaos we go through to get it done.

Diane – If not for this woman, I’d swear I would lose my head. She sets me straight when I don’t know which way to look. Thank you for everything you do in being the best PA I could ask for. However, you’re also one amazing friend.

Kim and Jackie – No matter how much insanity is thrown your way you still put up with me and I’m thankful for it all the same. Thank you both for taking on all of my work. I love the fact I work with you both on each of them. Also, the fact when it comes to something I miss, you help me understand how to correct it so it doesn’t happen again.

Tangled Together

Tangled in vines

Knotted together in time

There’s a way to the light

And there’s a way to the dark

Stuck between the two is one thing

It can also be another

Time stands still

The tangle pulls us closer

Our lives are two

But yet they are one

Two souls come together

Tangled with each other

There’s a chance to go forward

Or go backward

If given the chance

Tangled together can be wonderful

With two souls coming as one

Life is peaceful for the two

As light and dark come together as one

Prologue

Kenyon

Two Months Ago

Going out with Marc and Beau last night had been just what I needed after the shit we’ve dealt with the last few days. Shit, finding a random woman to fuck is exactly what I needed to relieve the stress of all that’s gone down.

The other day we’d all found Mitch’s ex-father-in-law, who we’d strung up in one of our cells, dead. We’ve got to figure out how someone got into that cell to kill him. Mitch is pissed about not getting his hands on him for what he did to him. Keeping his son, Mathias, from him. If he were still single, I’m sure he’d have joined us in letting off steam, but he’s got Alison now.

The woman is one of a kind. Where her sister Bridget is loud and dramatic, she’s quiet and calmer than anyone I know. Shit, women her age are usually out there trying to fuck anything in sight, but not
