I’d been poor as shit for my entire life. I’d learned to roll with it most days. Other times, like this morning, it punched me in the teeth.
In Harmony- Emma Scott
I’ve never been hit in the face. My mother didn’t bother disciplining me. Though I saw men hit her and my aunt from time to time, no man has ever hit me, so I didn’t know. I couldn’t have known that the first hit, that baptism into violence, doesn’t just sting the flesh. It startles the soul.
Long Shot- Kennedy Ryan
His children were left behind, like a sock in a drawer that was almost empty, and that was a million times worse than if there was nothing left at all.
Bring Down the Stars- Emma Scott
I’m just a girl, standing in front of a salad, asking it to be a doughnut.
Lost and Found Sisters- Jill Shalvis
Ragged police tape swung from the columns. The double-wide front door had been blown open, like the house had died mid-scream. Like it is still screaming.
Every Deep Desire- Sharon Wray
Jacquie Biggar-USA Today Best-selling author 
Awww. And he even has his own harness. With our cat I would have to get either a large ferret or small dog, he is that big boned. Happy Wednesday

Thanks, Lori. Haley is half Siamese, so she’s a small cat. I have to watch with the harnesses though, she’s so strong she’s broken the clasps on several, lol

I wish I could get my Raven to use a harness. She doesn’t even have a collar, but she does have an enclosed “catio” for outside 🙂
