Welcome to Siren’s Book Chat. Guess what? It’s my birthday! Happy birthday to me. I’m excited to be spending my b-day with the characters from Brutal Bloodline and Enzo DeLuca. Today, they’ll be sharing with you three of their New Year’s resolutions. Say hello to Enzo and Eve. Enzo and Eve, say hello to the readers.
Enzo: Hello.
Eve: Hey, everyone. How are you? We’re excited to be here with you all.
Enzo: Are we?
Eve: Enzo, behave.
Enzo sighs and glares at me.
Siren: I know you’re a busy man, Enzo. So, I’ll make this interview quick.
Enzo: Do that.
Eve slaps Enzo’s shoulder.
Eve: Be nice. It’s her birthday.
Enzo: I’ve got people to kil…
Eve: Kim! He was going to say Kim.
Siren: He has people to Kim? That doesn’t make sense.
Eve: It’s an Italian word, Siren. You don’t speak Italian. You wouldn’t understand.
Siren: Okay. What does it mean?
Eve: It means… to, uh, grow.
Siren: Oh, so Enzo has people to grow?
Eve: Siren, mind your business before we Kim you.
Siren: Alright. Alright. Let’s get to the resolutions. My resolutions are the same as every year. Eat better, work out more, write more books, and drink more water.
Eve: Boring!
Siren: Hey. Those are good resolutions.
Eve: They’re boring. Eat what you want. Drink wine, not water. Life is short. Enjoy it.
Siren: I do enjoy it. I just want to be healthier.
Eve: I guess. Can I tell you my resolutions?
Siren: Sure, go ahead.
Eve: Okay. I want to cook more.
Enzo starts coughing. Eve gives him a death glare. Siren tries not to laugh.
Eve: Anyway! I plan to cook more. The more I do it, the better I’ll get at it.
Enzo: If you don’t burn the house down in the process.
Eve: Enzo, wait your turn.
Enzo nods.
Eve: My second resolution is to find my missing bestie, Sienna. I hope she is safe and sound. But I want her to join me in Italy. I want her to start a new life there. Or, at least rest here until she figures out what she wants to do next.
Enzo: I hope once we find her, she’ll settle down here, so you can meet up with her whenever you want. Stefano’s single. If your friend is single, she should give Stefano a try.
Eve rolls her eyes.
Eve: Stefano and Sienna? Not happening. They’re too different. My friend is vibrant and full of life. Stefano is cold-hearted and boring. He’d bore her to death.
Eve: Right! Sienna and Stefano would not get along. Anyway, my third resolution is to go on a world tour to meet all of Enzo’s relatives. He has cousins, uncles, aunts, and more are all over the world. I hope to meet them all soon.
Enzo: It’s okay if you don’t meet all of them. They’re a bit much.
Eve: I can handle your family, Enzo.
Enzo: I know you can, love. I still want to keep you all to myself.
Eve: Jealous A$$.
Enzo: Me, jealous? Yesterday, you threatened to kil… Kim a cashier for looking at me for too long.
Eve shrugs.
Eve: I just thought she didn’t want her eyes anymore. I was going to help her get rid of them. I was being helpful. I’m nice like that.
Enzo chuckles.
Enzo: Is it time for me to list my resolutions, Siren?
Siren: It is. I’m ready to hear them.
Enzo: One, I hope Eve never changes. I love her just the way she is.
Eve blushes.
Enzo: I hope Eve lets our cook do her job. She gets paid to cook. There’s no need for you to help out, love.
Eve: But I want to.
Enzo: There’s no need.
Eve: But…
Enzo: No need. My third resolution is, I hope to kil… Kim all of my enemies this year. I don’t have time to worry about someone betraying me. Those who need to be… Kimmed, will be Kimmed. That’s it.
Siren: Oh, um, okay. Well, happy Kimming.
Enzo: Thanks.
Siren: I guess that’s it, guys. Thanks for joining me on my birthday. I appreciate you. Readers, help me in thanking Enzo and Eve for joining us.

Her Silent Knight: Book 1 of the Frostlands Series.
Cursed to never speak again, Kaede Oshiro hasn’t uttered a word in decades. And then a curvy witch storms into his life and makes him moan her name.
Banished to the Frostlands by his jealous cousin and his cousin’s wife, Kaede Oshiro has spent years fighting to stay alive on a frozen tundra that’s filled with creatures straight out of nightmares. Battling day after day, killing night after night has turned him into a cold-hearted shifter. His hope of returning to the mortal realm and reclaiming his title as pack alpha seems impossible. Then one day, an opportunity for him to regain his freedom arises. All he has to do is kidnap a witch and bring her to The Deciders. He thought finding the witch, Sinclair Rose, and turning her over to The Deciders would be a simple task. She proved him wrong. The moment he touched her, he experienced pain unlike anything he’d felt before. When he finally came to, he realized six things:
1. The captor had become the captive. 2. The cottage he was being held captive in was filled with Christmas decorations. 3. The witch holding him hostage was the most beautiful creature he’d ever seen. 4. When her hands were on him, he was able to speak. 5. Her presence was awaking the dormant dragon inside him. 6. He must protect this woman at all costs.
However, if he chooses protecting Sinclair over completing the task assigned to him by The Deciders, he’s putting both their lives in danger. Obey The Deciders or protect a voluptuous witch who makes his dragon roar? There’s only one answer both he and his inner animal can agree on.
Protect the witch. And death to any who try to harm her.
She knew he was trouble when he walked into her shop. Being a mechanic and part of an all-female bike club means, Antoinette ‘Toni’ Keys is used to men looking at her and saying, “Hey pretty girl, you sure you can fix that engine?” Or, “Hey doll, you sure you can handle all that bike?” So, when an outlaw biker name Dirt steps into her shop and refuses to allow a female to work on his bike, she’s determined to show him she’s the best mechanic for the job. What she doesn’t plan on, is the instant attraction she has for him. She’s not looking for love. She doesn’t have time for a tattooed bad boy and the trouble that follows him everywhere he goes. She has her own problems with a rival bike club. Yet, she’s finding it hard to resist his wicked smile and his sexy tattoos.
He knew he was in trouble the moment he laid eyes on her. Dietrich Tate, aka Dirt, is a third generation Reaper. His club is the most important thing in his life. He’s loyal to his brothers. When one of them goes rogue with the club’s money, Dirt is the one chosen to hunt him down. Instead of finding his target, he finds a sexy brown-skinned mechanic with the prettiest smile he’s ever seen. He knows his club wouldn’t approve of him seeing her. Yet, he can’t resist her. Spending time with her makes him forget his troubled past. However, it also brings trouble to her doorstep. Trouble she wants no part of. Trouble that puts her entire club and her family in danger. Trouble that makes her not want to be around him. Dirt vows to protect her from his vicious crew. Imagine his surprise when he learns she can be just as vicious as they are. That only makes him want her more.
~Are you ready for a ride you won’t forget?~
But wait, there’s more.
Brutal Bloodline, the prequel to the Savage Bloodline Boxset, is also FREE on Amazon!
A life for a life. That was the code they lived by. After their Don was gunned down, things changed. This was no longer a life for a life situation. A coward had tried to make a name for himself by taking on their family. It was time for the DeLucas to show their enemies just how brutally savage their bloodline could be.
Note to readers: This is not a romance. This is the prequel to the Savage Bloodline Mafia Romance Box Set coming 3/15/2022. Enjoy this glimpse into the DeLuca family!
There’s a darkness inside Ciera Duvai that’s begging to be released. Every day, she struggles to keep the evil at bay. When a naughty encounter with a dragon causes her to lose her skirt and her control, her true identity is revealed. She’s pretty sure the dragon in question is her mate. Dragons are an unforgiving lot, but, he’s her mate, he has to forgive her for all the crimes she doesn’t even remember committing. Right? Wrong! He wants her dead and Ciera isn’t going down without a fight. It’s time to show her mate that her monster is bigger than his.
Her touch excites the monster inside him.
Edmund Dracon is losing his mind. He’s gone too long without a mate and the loneliness had taken a toll on his sanity. His inner dragon has consumed his thoughts and is slowly taking over his body. Soon, he’ll have to be put down or he’ll become a threat to everyone. There’s only one creature who can save him from himself: his mate. When he finds her sneaking out of his castle, he thinks the Fates have finally answered his prayers, that is, until he finds out who and what she really is.
Allowing her to live would be an act of treason. Yet, now that he’s touched her, killing her doesn’t seem right. Edmund has a tough decision to make: protect a mate he doesn’t trust or protect his brethren?
Happy Thursday and welcome to another edition of Siren Chat. This month, we’re focusing on New Year’s Resolutions. I’m interviewing characters from my books to find out what their resolutions are. Today, we have the Killer Crew from Garrett’s Temptation joining us. But, before we get to them, I’ll share another one of my resolutions.
This year, I hope to read more. Lately, I haven’t had much time to read. And instead of waiting on me to find time, my favorite authors keep dropping amazing books. From Shani Greene-Dowdell, to L. Loren, Posey Parks, C.D Samuda and so many more, I have a lot of catching up to do. I still need to read all of the books in the Once Upon A Villain series and the A Very Alpha Christmas series. This year, I plan to carve out some time to read more. I shared 2 books from my To-Read list today in my newsletter. I’ll share them and more on my blog soon. Feel free to leave me recommendations in the comments.
Now, for what you all really came here for. Let’s chat with the Killer Crew. Not all of the guys could make it. Garrett is keeping them very busy. But, Nik, Liam, and Kris showed up.
Warning: I am not responsible for what they do or say. And please forgive them for everything they do and say.
P.S. This interview contains spoilers. Be sure you’ve read my FREEBIE, The Fallout, before reading this interview.
Siren: Hey guys, could you sit down, please? Liam, is that a bomb? Why did you bring that in here?
Liam: It’s not a bomb. It used to be a bomb. I’ve taken it apart to study it.
Siren – Why? Never mind. Guys, let’s get started. What are you huddled up in the corner doing? Oh, wow. Is that a birthday gift for me?
Nik – We heard your birthday is today. So, we got you a little something.
Siren – Feeling special.Opens the box. It’s a set of daggers. Smiles. I LOVE IT!
Nik: I told you she’d like it. You owe me $20, Kris. Pay up. You lost the bet.
Kris: Whatever! Siren, I voted to get you jewelry. Why are you happy about daggers? You’re no killer.
Siren: You’re right. I’m not. But they’re shiny and cute. And look, they’re even pointy….
Nik: Careful. They’re not toys.
Siren: I love them. I’m going to put these in my office as decoration.
Nik: What? Daggers are not decoration.
Siren: They’re mine and I can do whatever I want with them. Now, let’s get to those resolutions.
Nik: Wait, those daggers weren’t cheap and…
Siren: Would you rather have me get them dirty with blood or keep them clean and on display?
Nik, Liam, and Kris: Dirty with blood.
Siren: Of course, you’d all say that. They’re mine and I can do what I want with them. Now, let’s get to these resolutions. Which one of you guys would like to go first?
Liam: The youngest should go first.
Nik: The most handsome should go first. That means me.
Siren: You’re a twin.
Nik: Grins. But, I’m the handsome twin.
Kris: The one with the most kills should go first.
Nik: That’s still me.
Kris: That’s me.
Siren: How about we let Liam go first.
Nik: Why Liam?
Siren: Because, he’s holding a bomb that I want him to get out of here.
Nik: Makes sense.
Siren: Okay, Liam, tell me three of your resolutions.
Liam places his broken down bomb on the couch next to him. Nik and Kris scoots away from him. Siren leans back.
Liam: It’s not going to go off, guys. You know what? That’s one of my resolutions. I wish everyone wouldn’t be so afraid of my devices.
Nik: Last month, you rigged the washer machine. Now, everyone is scared to use it. And Oni is asking Garrett to buy a new one.
Liam: I’m not done with it. Once I’m finished, we’ll be able to remote-activate it. So, if we ever have to evacuate and blow up the safehouse to get rid of evidence, I can detonate the washing machine and it will take the entire place down, leaving no evidence behind.
Siren: You turned the washing machine into a bomb?
Liam: It’s not a bomb. It’s an exothermic reactor with….
Nik: It’s a bomb. It goes boom and it kills people.
Liam: *Sighs.* It’s kind of a bomb. But, forget about that. I’ve got two more resolutions. My second resolution is, I hope we can find a bigger safehouse.
Nik: That’s not a resolution.
Liam: Right. I should word it differently. I plan to go check out the other safehouses and see if they have more room.
Kris: You’re still complaining about the twins being in everything?
Liam: They own the house. Everything is baby proofed. I’m not allowed….
Nik: You’re not allowed to build sh*t that explodes in the house. Because of that, you want a bigger house?
Kris: If we had a bigger house, you still wouldn’t be allowed to build sh*t that explodes in the house. That’s what your shed is for.
Liam: Whatever. My third resolution is, I hope Scar returns soon. We need him.
Nik and Kris nods.
Siren: Oh, y’all nodding?
Nik: Yeah. Why wouldn’t we want our boy back?
Siren: Really? Because how I heard it was, you told him to leave.
Nik: Fake news, Siren. I never told him to leave. I did tell him to, you know, not be so close to Oni.
Siren: Which pretty much means leaving.
Nik: I never said those words.
Siren: Kris, how do you feel about this?
Kris: I think Scar leaving was a good thing.
Siren: This motherfu…. Why, Kris?
Kris: I haven’t spoken to him. But, I know he’s alive. If he wasn’t, I’m sure we’d know and then we’d have to kill whoever was responsible and…
Siren: We don’t have all day.
Kris: Glares at Siren.
Siren: Smiles. Please tell me why you think it’s a good idea, please?
Kris: He needs to be out on his own for awhile. And Garrett needs to no longer have his right hand man for a while. And they both need to see that they’re stronger together.
Nik: Yeah. That’s why I told him to take some time off and….
Siren: Lies. Don’t try to jump on Kris’ answer.
Nik: I’m serious.
Liam: No, he’s not.
Siren: We’re getting off track again. So, Liam, you’ve said your resolutions. Now, I want to hear Kris’.
Nik: Why Kris?
Siren: Because I think yours will take longer than his.
Kris: You’re right, Siren. I only have one.
Siren: We agreed on three.
Kris: I only have one.
Siren….
Kris….
Siren….
Nik: Let me tell you a joke, Siren. What’s on the menu at the restaurant called Karma?
Siren: I don’t know. Um, chicken?
Nik: No. There’s no menu at Karma. You get what you deserve.
Siren: Bursts out laughing.
Liam and Kris:*Crickets*
Nik: That’s why I like you, Siren. You laugh at my jokes.
Siren: You’re a funny guy, Nik. But, we’ve got to move on. Kris, share your ONE resolution.
Kris: Peace on Earth.
Siren, Liam, Nik: What the hell?
Siren: That’s such a generic answer.
Nik: Forget generic. If there was peace on Earth, we wouldn’t have dispatch cases to work.
Kris: *Nods* I know.
Liam: And you’re okay with that?
Kris: I am.
Nik: *Appears shocked* Who are you and what have you done with my brother?
Kris: Hear me out. We have so many open cases right now. We have twins in the house. Dean and Garrett are always concerned about Oni and Rain’s safety. Nik, you’ve even been concerned with the safety of L….
Nik: Heyyyy. Shut the F*ck up. Just say your resolutions. Don’t go volunteering information.
Siren: Wait, I want to hear this. Whose safety has Nik been concerned with?
Nik: Siren, mind your business.
Siren: Is it a woman?
Nik: Nope, it’s a penguin. My New Year’s resolution is to save the penguins. Okay, guys, lets wrap this up. We’ve got somewhere to be in an hour.
Siren: Wait. You didn’t tell me your resolution, Nik.
Nik: I just did. I want to save the penguins.
Siren: No, you don’t.
Nik: Seriously, I do. Ever since I was forced to wear a bow tie to the wedding, I’ve felt a special bond with penguins.
Liam and Kris starts to laugh. Siren rolls her eyes. Liam’s ‘not a bomb’ starts to beep.
Siren: Liam, get that out of here.
Liam: It’s not going to explode.
Siren: Now, Liam.
Kris: Come on, Kid. Let’s go before we blow up the neighborhood.
Liam: Seriously, it’s not going to explode.
Kris: Come on, Kid. Happy Birthday, Siren. How old are you?
Nik: It’s not polite to ask a woman her age.
Kris: Siren isn’t a woman, she’s family. How old are you?
Siren: I’m For… Fo… Fort…. Sorry, I can’t even say the number.
Liam: Forty?
Siren nods.
Kris: There’s nothing wrong with forty. Try to say it again.
Siren: For…. Fort…
Nik: You’re a fort?
Siren: Shut up, Nik. Today, I am Forty! There, I said it.
Nik: Good, girl.
Siren rolls her eyes. Nik laughs. That ‘not a bomb’ is still ticking.
Siren: Liam!
Liam: I’m leaving. Come on, guys.
Liam and Kris head out.
Siren: Nik, wait.
Nik: I really want to save the penguins.
Siren: Forget that. Do you feel any guilt about Scar?
Nik: Guilt? Why would I feel guilt? I saved a relationship.
Siren: How? They won’t even talk.
Nik: Yeah, but they haven’t killed each other. That’s what would’ve happened if I hadn’t stepped in and talked to Scar.
Siren: But you made him feel like an outsider.
Nik: I know.
Siren: That’s wrong.
Nik: At least he’s not dead.
Siren: You made Garrett feel like he was right.
Nik: I know.
Siren: He’s not right.
Nik: At least he’s not dead.
Siren: Why do you keep saying that?
Nik: You’re thinking from a person on the outside looking in. All you see is wrong or right. There’s no wrong or right here. They’re both wrong. And they’re both right. Siren, we’re not like regular men. And when it comes to love, we’re more emotional than regular men.
Siren: Really?
Nik: Hell yeah. For men like us, all we see is death and destruction everyday. We become jaded. Life becomes a nuisance. We no longer fear death. We know that in our line of work, we can be killed at any time. However, when a ray of light appears in our life in the form of love, all of that changes. The fearless become the fearful. We no longer think with our trigger finger, we start to think with our heart. Like I said before, we’re not like regular men. We don’t understand wooing and all that. All we know is one word, MINE. Our women, our love, our ray of life, belongs to us and us only. If anyone, friend or foe, looks like they pose a threat to that, they become the enemy. Scar was very close to becoming Garrett’s enemy.
Siren: But, he already is…
Nik: No, he left before that could happen. Right now, Garrett is just mad because a part of him feels like an idiot for doubting Scar’s loyalty. However, his pride won’t let him reach out to Scar, not yet. He needs time. He needs to work through his own issues. But he needs to do it without Scar around.
Siren: What about poor, Scar?
Nik: Scar isn’t poor. He got big money. He’s a money hoarder.
Siren: I didn’t mean poor that way. But, a money hoarder? Really? I wish I was a money hoarder.
Nik: You need some money, Siren? Does your husband not provide for you?
Siren: First of all, he does. Second of all, I don’t need him to. I make my own money, thank you.
Nik: Oh, right. You’re an independent woman.
Siren: Damn straight.
Nik: Mumbles under his breath – I’m so sick of independent women who won’t let you take care of them.
Siren: What was that? Are you talking about someone specific?
Nik: I said, you don’t have to worry much about poor Scar. Scar needs to find himself. He needs to find what he wants out of life. Hell, who knows, he may even find love while he’s out on his own.
Siren: What if he doesn’t come back?
Nik: He will.
Siren: How do you know?
Nik: Because men like us never turn our backs on our brothers. We fight. We fall out. We separate. But when needed, we always show up. If Scar calls, we will drop everything and come running. If Garrett calls, Scar will drop everything and come running. That’s true loyalty. It may bend. But it never breaks.
Siren: But what if…
Nik: Siren, have faith in us. In the end, everything will be okay. And their relationship will be stronger than before.
Siren: *Sigh* If you say so. Before you go, who is it that you’ve been trying to protect?
Nik: Looks down at his wrist. Look at the time.
Siren: You’re not wearing a watch.
Nik: Uh, I am. It’s invisible.
Siren: An invisible watch? Right?
Nik: Yeah. Liam made it. You know that Kid is a genius.
Siren: Have you found a woman that you like, Nik?
Nik: Me? No. I, uh, don’t have time for that. So, I’ve got to go. It’s my turn to watch the twins while Garrett and Oni have a date night. Let’s do this again. It was fun. I’ll bring the penguins next time. Happy Birthday. Bye.
Nik rushes from the room, leaving Siren staring after him.
Siren: So, readers, that’s that. I’m pretty sure Nik has a crush on someone. I’ll find out who it is and let you know later. But, what do you think about the things he said? Do you agree with Nik’s method of trying to resolve things? Let me know in the comments. I’m torn. I kind of understand what he’s saying. He’s thinking that Scar and Garrett need to be apart to realize just how much they need each other. But, I feel like he could’ve gotten them to that point with a less aggressive plan. *Sigh* Let me know how you feel about all this. Should Nik have just stayed out of it? Or was he right to have gotten involved before things escalated between Scar and Garrett?
Also, next week is the final week of New Year’s Resolutions. And I’ll be interviewing our boy, Vlad. I didn’t plan to interview him. He asked to be interviewed. He has something he wants to say about all of this. Find out his thoughts next week! Until then, be safe and always read past your bedtime! Smooches!

They say all good things must come to an end.
But that wasn’t supposed to happen to them. They were supposed to be brothers for life. But if blood relatives can fallout, why couldn’t they? Chaos brought them together. Loyalty bound them together. But love would tear them apart. And jealousy would be the reason for their fallout.
Note: This ends on a cliffhanger! This is not a romance. This is a glimpse into the past and bridges the gap between book 2, Garrett’s Temptation, and book 4, Scar’s Obsession. Enjoy!
Happy Thursday and welcome to another edition of Siren Chat. Okay, so, I should’ve posted this yesterday. What had happen was, I stayed in bed all day. It felt soooo good to stay in bed and not do anything. I feel so refreshed now. Guys, we have to take a break every now and then for our mental stability. If you don’t, please start. I took a day off and I’m feeling energized.
So, let’s get started. This month, we’re focusing on New Year’s Resolutions. I’m interviewing characters from my books to find out what their resolutions are. Today, we have Garrett and Oni from Garrett’s Temptation joining us. But, before we get to them, I will share one of my resolutions with you. It’s one that sounds super easy but is actually very hard.
Write more. See, simple, right? Nope. I’m easily distracted by television, the squirrels who like to play on my porch – I have named them Chip and Dale. My hubby is a distraction. The biggest distraction is social media. So, this year, I hope to find a PA to handle most of my social media duties while I focus on writing. Wish me luck! (I guess that’s two resolutions right there. Find a PA and write more.)
Okay, enough about me. Now, for what you all came here for. Let’s chat with Oni and Garrett.
Warning: I am not responsible for what they do or say.Also, if you have not read books 1-3 of this series, you may not want to read this interview. It contains spoilers.
Siren: Okay, readers. I have Garrett and Oni here with me. They’re going to share their New Year’s resolutions with you. Before they start, take a minute to think about what you imagine their resolutions will be. At the end of the interview, leave a comment and let me know if you guessed correctly!
Siren – Hi, Oni!
Oni – Hi, Siren. Long time no see.
Siren – Hi, Garrett.
Garrett – I heard you made Dean angry last week.
Siren – …..
Garrett – ……
Siren – …..
Garrett – Good, someone needs to bring up the subject of kids with him. He gets upset whenever I do it.
Siren – I didn’t bring it up. Rain did. Yet, he still got upset with me.
Garrett – Don’t worry about it. That’s just how he is. He has a bad attitude.
Siren – *Raises eyebrow* Oh, he does, does he? Is he the only one with a bad attitude?
Garrett – *With a straight face* Yes, he is.
Siren – …..
Garrett – ……
Siren – ……
Oni – I feel like I’m missing something here.
Garrett – You’re not missing anything, Beauty. Siren just likes giving me a hard time.
Siren – True. By the way, How’s Scar?
Garrett – ….
Siren -…….
Garrett – I heard Dean threatened to burn this place down. We can make that happen.
Oni – Garrett! Stop acting like that. As for Scar…. *Oni sighs* We haven’t heard from him in a while. I’m worried.
Garrett – I thought we were here to talk about New Year’s Resolutions.
Siren – We are.
Garrett – Let’s do that then. I’ll start.
Siren – Usually, I have the woman start….
Garrett – I’ll start.
Siren – Fine.
Garrett – My New Year’s Resolutions are to protect my family from threats. I also want to forever be a great father to my kids. I want to be someone they can depend on and run to when things are too hard. But, I also want to teach them to stand on their own two feet.
Oni – I like those resolutions, Beast.
Siren – So do I, Beast.
Oni – Siren, you tried it.
Siren – My bad. Garrett, what’s your final resolution?
Garrett – It’s Oni’s turn.
Siren – But, you only told us two and…
Garrett – It’s my wife’s turn.
Siren – Ugh, fine! Oni can you please share with the readers your THREE New Year’s resolutions.
Oni – Sure thing, Siren. As long as you don’t call Garrett Beast again.
Siren – I wouldn’t dream of it.
Oni – Great. My first resolution is to get healthier.
Garrett – Don’t you dare lose weight.
Oni – While getting healthier, some weight may drop off.
Garrett – First, you said you was just trying to lose baby weight. You lost it. Now you trying to lose that a$$. I’m not happy with this, Beauty.
Oni – Okay, okay. I’ll just work on toning up.
Garrett – I’ll work out with you.
Oni – We tried that. When you work out with me, you always end up…. you know.
Garrett – *Winks at Oni* Yeah, I know.
Oni – *Smiles and blushes.*
Siren – Okaaay, let’s get back on track guys.
Garrett – Mind your business, Siren.
Siren – This is my business. I’m here to interview you guys. Not watch you two stare into each other’s eyes.
Garrett – Jealous?
Siren – Uh, no. I’ve got a husband of my own.
Garrett – Has he ever killed for you?
Siren – Well…
Garrett – Has he ever laid your enemies at your feet?
Siren – Um….
Garrett – Has he ever…..
Siren – He’s never kidnapped me. Neither has he ever tried to torture me. And he’s never…
Garrett – Why you bringing up the past?
Oni – I feel like I’m the only adult in the room. You two do realize I have babies to get back to and I hate being away from them for a long period of time, right?
Garrett – Yes, love. Let’s go home to our twins.
Siren – Can one of you at least tell me your resolutions?
Garrett – I told you two of mine.
Siren – What’s your final one?
Garrett – I don’t know. I’ll have to think about it.
Siren – Really? You’ve known about this interview all month.
Garrett – I’ve had other sh*t to deal with, Siren. I don’t get to take a day off like you do.
Siren – Oh, really? You know what? You’ve been hella petty lately.
Oni – Enough you two. I’ll tell you mine, Siren. I already said I want to be healthier this year. I also want to take my writing career to the next level.
Siren: I feel you on that. Can you elaborate a bit?
Oni: Sure. I’m talking movie deals and all of that. I want merch for my books too. By the way, I love your merch.
Siren – Thanks!
Oni – As for my final resolution, I want my family to get back together.
Siren – Are you talking about reuniting with your mother and your sister?
Oni – *Rolls eyes* Of course not. That’s another story. I’m talking about my Killer Crew. As you know, Scar left the house. He’s gone to find himself or something like that.
Siren stares at Garrett. Garrett glares at Siren.
Siren….
Garrett shakes his head.
Siren….
Garrett swipes his finger across his throat.
Siren – *Ignores the warning* Is that why Scar said he left? Did he really leave to go ‘find himself?’
Oni – Yeah. Why? What have you heard?
Siren – *Reading Garrett’s Lips.*
Garrett. – *Mouths the words, kill shot.*
Siren – I was just asking.
Oni – Oh! Okay. Well, those are my three resolutions. I think we’re done here.
Siren – I guess so. Thank you both for talking to me today.
Oni – You’re welcome, Siren. Anytime. Thank you for having us. We’ll see you later.
Siren – Bye. Bye Garrett!
Garrett – *Glares*
Siren – Shaking head as she watches them head to the door. After they leave, Siren gathers up her notes. She looks up when she hears footsteps. There’s Garrett. Good thing she wore her bulletproof vest.
Garrett – Why did you keep bringing up Scar?
Siren – No reason.
Garrett – Hmm….
Siren – Hmm….
For a minute, he doesn’t say anything.
Siren – Did you need anything else?
Garrett – *Rubs his hand through his hair* How is he?
Siren – You should ask him yourself.
Garrett – I’m asking you.
Siren – And I’m telling you to ask him. He’s still your brother, right?
Garrett…..
Siren – Let me give you a piece of advice. No one lives forever. If you’ve got something you want to say to someone, say it today. Tomorrow isn’t promised. If you want to know how Scar is doing, find him and ask him.
Garrett – You sound like you blame me for him leaving?
Siren – I do.
Garrett – Why?
Siren – Because you pushed him away.
Garrett – I didn’t. All I wanted was to have my wife to myself.
Siren – Whatever you say.
Garrett – Would your husband be okay with you going to his brother when you need help? Would your husband be okay with his brother hanging around you, making you laugh and sh*t like that?
Siren…..
Garrett – In my heart, I know they’re only friends. I know my wife is loyal to me. But I’ve never had someone love me the way she does. I’ve never had someone treat me the way she does. I’ve never had someone look at me the way she does. I’m possessive. And I’m never going to apologize for being this way. I want all her smiles. I want to be the one she turns to, every time, no matter what it is. I don’t want to share any part of her.
Siren – I understand. But…
Garrett – You don’t understand. Everything I love, it always gets taken from me. Not this time. Not my Beauty. I’ll do whatever it takes to keep her. Even if it means losing a brother. I’ll always be there for Scar. But I can’t have him back in the safehouse.
Siren – But…
Garrett – Call me crazy. I’ll be that. I’m crazy about Oni. And nothing you or anyone else says will change that. So, next time, don’t bring up Scar in front of her. Got that?
Garrett turns and leaves, leaving Siren staring after him.
Siren: Okay, readers! Let’s chat for a moment. Look, I know Garrett is hurting. I can see that. Now, I’ve just got to find a way to help him. Readers, what do you suggest? Leave me a comment letting me know whether or not you agree with Garrett’s logic? Would your life partner feel the same way if you were close to their brother or friend like Oni is close with Scar? I want to hear your thoughts on this.
That’s it for this week. Next week, I’m interviewing a few members of the Killer Crew. I want to know what they think about what’s going on between Garrett and Scar. Until next week, be safe and always read past your bedtime! Smooches!

They say all good things must come to an end.
But that wasn’t supposed to happen to them. They were supposed to be brothers for life. But if blood relatives can fallout, why couldn’t they? Chaos brought them together. Loyalty bound them together. But love would tear them apart. And jealousy would be the reason for their fallout.
Note: This ends on a cliffhanger! This is not a romance. This is a glimpse into the past and bridges the gap between book 2, Garrett’s Temptation, and book 4, Scar’s Obsession. Enjoy!

P.S – Next week, I’ve got a special announcement coming. No, it’s not Scar’s book releasing early. Lol. I know some of you would think that and I didn’t want you to be disappointed. It’s something else. You’ll see what it is next week! Later!
Happy Wednesday! Readers asked for it. So, I’ve decided to get back to doing weekly blog posts. I’m baccckkkk!
This month’s theme is New Year’s resolutions. Same as every year, my resolution is to try to take over the world. Just kidding! It’s something much harder than that. I plan to once again try to lose weight. Low carb plans work for me. Not Atkins or Keto. I’m not ready for that yet. But, I will be cutting carbs in 2021. I’ll keep you updated on my progress. Enough about me. You came here to hear from Dean and Rain. Warning: Don’t blame me for the words that come out of their mouths. I am not responsible for them.
Enjoy this interview.
Siren: Okay, readers. I have Dean and Rain here with me. They’re going to share their New Year’s resolutions with you. Before they start, take a minute to think about what you imagine their resolutions will be. At the end of the interview, leave a comment and let me know if you guessed right!
WARNING: If you haven’t read Dean’s book, this interview will contain spoilers.
Siren – Hi, Dean and Rain. Thank you for joining me and thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to tell my readers and I your New Year’s Resolutions.
Rain – It’s our pleasure. Right, Dean?
Dean – If it makes you happy, love.
Siren – Dean, are you saying Rain forced you to do this interview?
Dean – Precisely. I’m a busy man. I’ve got important things to do.
Siren – Like keep an eye on Garrett?
Dean – You’re being nosey, Siren.
Siren – Alright, alright. Let’s get to the point of this interview. I’ve already stated my resolution. I want to lose weight…
Rain – Girl, you better eat a donut and forget about the rest. There’s nothing wrong with some extra meat on your bones.
Siren – I know. I just want to lose about…
Rain – Baby, tell her, the curvier the better, right?
Dean – Men need something to hold on to when they’re fuc…
Rain – Enough, Dean! I didn’t tell you to say all of that.
Siren – Wow. Uh. Okay. You first, Rain. What are three of your New Year’s resolutions?
Rain – Mine are simple. I’m not tryin to lose weight…
Dean – You better not.
Rain – But, I am trying to be healthier. I’m an aunt now. I’ve got to chase two little twins around. I can’t be letting them tire me out.
Dean – Those kids tire me out. All they do is run.
Rain – Also, I want to open a restaurant after everything in our life settles down. And last but not least, I would like to maybe, uh, get pregnant this year.
*Dean starts coughing. Rain pats him on the back. Siren sips her tea.*
Dean – Pregnant?
Rain – I said maybe.
Dean – Siren, I want to change one of my resolutions.
Siren – You haven’t even stated them yet.
Dean – I want to add no babies to mine.
Rain – Dean!
Dean – Not right now. You see how crazy fatherhood has made Garrett. I’m not ready for that.
Rain – You won’t be like that.
Dean – I’ll probably be worse. Let’s wait until after everything settles down. After all the cases have been solved and…
Rain – So, never?
Dean – Not never. Just, later.
Rain – I want to be a mom.
Dean – What about a pet?
Rain – I don’t want no damn pet.
Dean – Fishes are easy to clean up after. And when they die, you just flush them down the toilet.
Rain – I can’t believe you, Dean.
Dean – What?
Rain – I’m ready to go.
Siren – Wait. Dean hasn’t finished telling the readers his New Year’s Resolutions.
Rain – You heard him, no babies.
Siren – But the other two…
Rain – No babies. No sex. No Food.
Dean – I never said those.
Rain – I said them for you. Those are all the things you won’t be getting in 2021.
Dean – Hey, Rain. Don’t go. Don’t. Shit. *Turns to me.*
Siren – Um, I guess we’re done here.
Dean – Fix it, Siren, or I’ll burn this whole place to the ground. *Storms off.*
Siren – And this is what I get for creating such violent characters. They even threaten me! Okay readers, maybe we’ll have better luck next week when I interview Garrett and Oni. Then again, maybe I’ll bring my bulletproof vest with me, just in case. Despite their early departure, I hope you enjoyed this interview. Please leave a comment telling me one of your own New Year’s Resolutions. and let me know if you guessed theirs correctly. Until next week, be safe and always read past your bedtime. I’m going to go out and make sure Dean and Rain are okay. No sex for a year? He’ll end up killing everyone who looks at him wrong. Later!

Siren ‘M’Renee’ Allen presents….
Warning: Dangerous Curves Ahead
Book one in the Dangerously Curvy series.
He’s a dangerous criminal.
She’s dangerously curvy.
Together, will they sizzle or will they crash and burn?
Dean Collins wasn’t born evil. This cruel world turned him into the cold-hearted killer he is today. Death and destruction follows him everywhere he goes. So, when he crosses paths with the very sassy and very curvy food truck owner, Rain Delaney, he does everything he can to push her away.
But situations beyond his control keeps pulling them back together. It isn’t long before the darkness in his life seeps into hers and she ends up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Now his enemies are after her. Staying away from her is no longer an option. To keep her safe, he has to keep her near him.
It’s sad that the safest place for her is in the arms of a killer.
A killer who has no intention of letting her go.
“Watch me,” he growled.
Her eyes popped open. She stared down at him. He wanted her to watch. Okay, she’d watch. But that was only going to make her come quicker. And she wanted this to last. Her pu**y needed this to last.
She was so not going to last. His tongue teased her, bringing her closer to her orgasm. She tried to regulate her breathing, anything to keep from coming. His tongue wasn’t having that. He devoured her like he was on death row and she was his last meal.
Her toes curled and her legs began to tremble. He didn’t seem to notice. He was focused on his task. Gotta love a man who gives it his all. And Dean was definitely bringing his A game.
Every stroke of his tongue sent pleasure radiating over her whole body. Whole body! Even her fingertips felt sensitive. What type of sh*t was that? His tongue-play was on point. He knew just how much pressure to apply.
It was like her pu**y was made to be loved by his mouth and his mouth alone. It was a struggle to keep her eyes open. Watching his tongue play with her, tease her, love her, it was almost too much.

It’s time for a cover reveal and a giveaway! You know how I love doing both. Next month, I release book 2 of the Going Nowhere Fast suspense series. Today, I’m sharing the cover for that book!
She’s alone, scared and on the run.
Melanie Pittman never thought her life would end up like this. She’s living life on the run, with two brothers chasing after her. No matter how far she runs, she can’t hide from the Rochester brothers. They both know what she’s done and they plan to make her suffer for it.
Damian wants her dead for the crime she committed. Mason, the man she thought cared for her, wants her to complete the terms of their agreement: sex for his silence. Then there’s her other enemies lurking in the shadows. She can’t hide forever. As her enemies close in on her from all angles, she only has two options: give up or rise up.
Melanie’s tired of being hurt and used.
She’s ready to fight.
To hell with love.
Book 1 is available on Amazon and FREE with Kindle Unlimited.
How did a text message lead to blood on her hands?
Melanie Pittman never should’ve responded to the message her boss sent, demanding she join the festivities at his mansion. With her job on the line, she showed up, only to flee moments later, covered in her boss’s blood.
And his son had watched her flee.
She’d known his willingness to not turn her in was too good to be true. Now he’s blackmailing her: sex for silence. The only thing making this situation worse was the fact that she enjoyed the things he did to her. The way he handled her body, the dirty things he said to her, she loved it all, even though she knew he would never think of her as anything other than a toy he could play with, manipulate. He held her freedom in his hands.
And now his older, more ruthless brother knows what she’s done.
What will it take to keep him silent?
He walked away from the table, needing some air. He had to find her back door. Mason stormed down the hallway. How dare she ask him how long this would last? However f*cking long he wanted it to.
She was in no position to ask questions or negotiate. Sh*t. Mason unlocked her back door and pulled it open. He sucked in a deep breath as he stepped out onto the porch. It was cold as hell and here he was standing on a porch with no jacket on.
Shoving his hands into his pockets, he stared up at the sky. He should’ve just stayed at home. After having her read a passage from her book to him, he’d been ready to see her. So, he’d called his brother and moved up their meeting which had only lasted ten minutes and ended with them yelling at each other.
Nothing new there. The only new thing was his desire to be here, near her. What the fuck was wrong with him? She was right. They didn’t know each other. She’d given him head once. He’d investigated her and seen her around the office.
Other than that, there was nothing he knew about her except that she was capable of murder. Other than her curves, there was no reason he should feel this insane need to be with her. She wasn’t even his type.
Yet, he’d dreamed about her. He’d dream about his mom also. In his dream, he’d introduced Melanie to his mom and they’d gotten along perfectly. Hell, even her and Damian had gotten along, in his dream.
“Hey. Mason.”
He turned to find her standing in the doorway clad in loose fitting jeans and a Chicago Cubs sweater. His dream girl. She was beautiful. She looked so sweet and innocent. Nothing like what he was used to. Mason cleared his throat.
“You ready?”
She shook her head. “I have a few more things to pack. I just wanted to tell you that uh, the reason I asked how long this would last…”
“Not this again.” Mason turned to stare at the backyard once more.
“It’s just that, I visit my grandmother once a week. I don’t know what it is you’re going to want me to do. Well, I know some of it, just not all of it. Anyway, will I still be able to visit my grandma?”
Her grandma. He’d forgotten about her.
Mason nodded.
“Thank you. And uh, that’s where I was yesterday. I waited on you to call. When you didn’t, I went to visit my grandma. I turned my phone off while I was at the nursing home.”
He felt like an ass. He nodded again.
“Okay,” she said. He could hear her stepping away from the door. “I’m going to finish packing. I’ll be quick.”
Mason stared over his shoulder at her retreating form. “Melanie.”
She stopped in the hall and glanced over her shoulder. “Yeah?”
“Take your time. You don’t have to rush.”
She smiled. It was a small smile, but it was still a smile. Probably the first real smile she’d ever aimed at him. She nodded then continued walking down the hallway. Mason faced the backyard once more.
What was it about Melanie Pittman that had him yearning for another one of her smiles?

“I need to touch you,” he told her, reaching for her.
Melanie stepped back under the hot spray of the water and let it wash the rest of the suds away. Soap free, she turned the shower off then moved closer to him. “I want you to touch me.”
He reached for her.
She took a step back. “Tongue only,” she told him.
His gaze became heated as he dropped to his knees in front of her. He gripped her hips and pushed her back until she was pressed against the shower wall. He lifted her leg and placed it over his shoulder.
Gripping his hair for balance, Melanie closed her eyes as his lips wrapped around her clit. Flames of desire leapt over her skin. His tongued twirled around her clit, making delicious circles around her tiny bud. She moaned his name when he ground his mouth against her.
She gripped his head and held him there as she lifted her hips and fu**ed his face. His hands slipped from her hips and curved around her ass, pulling her closer to his mouth. Up and down she lifted her hips as he licked her.
“So sweet,” he whispered against her before sliding his tongue between her wet folds.
She could feel her orgasm approaching. Moving her hips faster she chased it down, wanting to come in his mouth the same way he’d came in hers. Her thighs shook, hips jerked, knees grew weak.
She was close, so close.

Valentine’s Day is supposed to be about roses and candy. It’s about spending time with the person you love. But what happens when those roses have thorns and the candy turns to blood in your mouth? What happens when the person you love becomes the person you hate the most?
Patricia Scott has found an impressive way to handle those issues.
Patricia Scott is a dreamer.
She believes in love and hopes to one day have a large house surrounded by a white picket fence with the sound of children’s laughter floating through it. And then it happens. She meets her knight in shining armor.
But, it isn’t long before she realizes life is not a fairy tale. Dreams turn into nightmares. Love turns to hate and that large house with the white picket fence turns into a cell surrounded by bars. There are no sounds of children laughing in her future, just her own screams as she stares down at the blood coating her clothes.
But whose blood is it?
COMING VALENTINE’S DAY 2016. Be careful who you share your candy with.
Welcome to my haven for the naughty!
