Uh-oh! Goats baaaa-ahhh-ing outside of my window in Negril ...

Little Country Beach Town

Pretty Sunday morning. I hope you're having a good one. I have goats baaaa-ahhh-ing outside of my window -- they are chomping up the field nearby ... noisey little fellas! But they are a reminder that Negril is truly a "little country beach town." 

Been working all morning; hope to finish early so I can get another run-walk in in prep for the March run (http://tinyurl.com/pzh3223). Had a good, solid stretch out yesterday evening down Beach Road ... finally learning to breeeeeathe while running. Looking forward to getting out again. Simply gorgeous day!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and don't forget to get your FREE copy of "For Richer For Poorer, PART 1" (multicultural romance). The FREE Promotion ends at Midnight: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EG37Q9U. 


As always, thank you for stopping by my author blog!

**FREE** Romance Novel -- For Richer For Poorer, PART 1, Jan 3-4, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EG37Q9U

For Richer For Poorer, PART 1 (Multicultural Romance)


‪#‎freeromance -- For Richer For Poorer, PART 1, Jan 3-4, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EG37Q9U. See overview below.



INTRODUCTION: 

Hamilton Steele, a sexy real estate developer, was looking for love in Harper's Grove, a sleepy town on the outskirts of Atlanta. A downward spiral of the housing market, and a twist of fate, landed him back in the handyman occupation he thought he'd seen the last of -- and onto the steps of Miranda Colbert. 

Miranda's heart was closed to anything resembling love, especially after her last fiasco of a relationship. The only thing on her mind was getting Colbert and Company back on its feet and getting the little bungalow falling down around her up to par -- until she opened the door to her new handyman. 

EXCERPT: 


"Hi, ma'am," he said in a sexy voice with a slight southern twang. "I'm Hamilton. Hamilton Steele." She was a beautiful woman. A perfume he couldn't quite place teased his senses. Hamilton reached out to shake her hand. Dainty, soft. He knew if he squeezed too hard he would hurt her. His eyes lingered on the small, delicate features of her caramel-colored face. The fullness of her lips were irresistible, and the slender, silver chain around her neck traveled down to a pert bosom that was void of a brassiere. Something about her, almost like a magnet, made him want to pull her into his arms and ravish her with his lips. 

Miranda's heart raced as she surveyed the creature in front of her. Jeans, white t-shirt, and construction boots were made for men like the one standing on her porch. Sexiness oozed from him as he stood there, devouring ...

Just Signed Up for the Kingston City Run!

Just Signed Up for the Kingston City Run!

I hope you're having a great Saturday. So far, so good on this end. I just signed up for the Kingston City Run! (http://kingstoncityrun.com/).  I'll be participating in the 5K. Now, I'm no runner, but I'm going to do my best in my first "real" run! 

I have fast-walked several half marathons (the last one was 2014 Reggae Half Marathon here in Negril), but that running thing has always been a challenge. It's the breathing, the rhythm, that stifles me. But I'm going to try.  May just have to walk 10 steps and run 10 to get across that finish line, but that's okay.

If you have any tips on "staying alive!" while running, please let me know via FB at https://www.facebook.com/cassandrablackauthor. Starting my running training today after I finish working on the next multicultural romance novel release. I hear hills are good endurance training and there are a couple very near me in Negril.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend -- and don't forget to get your copy of the ‪FREE ROMANCE For Richer For Poorer, PART 1, Jan 3-4 Free Promo, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EG37Q9U.

Thank you for stopping by my author blog!

Werewolf in Paradise [African American Fiction / Contemporary Women]

Werewolf in Paradise

Werewolf in Paradise [African American Fiction / Contemporary Women], by Cassandra Black and Yuwanda Black, http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00631P762. See overview below. Read FREE sample on Amazon.


OVERVIEW: Something had changed in Carolyn Killborn. On vacation in the Caribbean to escape the stresses of a growing business and a marriage gone wrong, she felt different. There was a strange aura in the air. And the news of a bloody murder steps from her hotel on the cliffs of Negril didn't help. 

Part of her wanted to run back to everything familiar in Atlanta; but she knew it wasn’t time. She had some things to sort out in this tropical paradise before she faced Tyrone. 


PREVIEW:

“Dumb bitch! You did this on purpose. I told you, I’M NOT READY!” he snarled. He was inches from her face.

The blood oozed from Carolyn’s swollen lip to the lace trim on her silk white blouse. She turned away to avoid the next blow. He shoved her head-first into the bathroom door. Her wrist protected her face from the silver towel knob anchored in the heavy, dark wood. 

“Please Tyrone,” she begged. “I didn’t do it on purpose.” Her petite frame trembled as she tried to keep her balance. The doctor said it’s possible to get pregnant on the pill, please!” she pleaded, afraid to turn around. 

Tyrone spun her around with a force that splattered the crimson trail from her lips to his light blue Armani shirt. The last thing she remembered was being kicked in the stomach by her husband as she pooled into a human ball on the cool tile of the bathroom floor. 

___________

Carolyn bolted up to the searing pain of a dog’s teeth in her butt. The bright red blood oozing from the open wound frightened her. Dr. Yoruba said she had to take the pills -- to stop the changes. What changes? Carolyn was fine. 

Something killed the tourist on Lighthouse Road. It couldn’t have been human. 

Ellen Knowley, the new Alaskan detective had seen these types of killings before, on the Frontier. The killer was not human and the bloody carnage was just beginning. 

__________

Allan held what was left of his tongue in one hand and tried in vain to stop the flow of blood with the other while running from the beast in front of him. With every step, the sanguine fluid spewed like water from a busted pipe. Trying in vain to scream, every breath brought forth a fresh stream of what felt like warm water. Only he could see it was blood . . . his blood.

The silver moon gave perfect, movie-like lighting to the cannibalistic creature in front of him. 

Golden eyes flashed . . . 

Razor sharp fangs snarled . . . 

Powerful legs lunged, again and again . . . each time taking chunks out of his legs, arms, side.

In less than a minute, Allan was wearing a suit of his own maroon bodily fluid. The gummy warmness travelled down what was left of his limbs, forming slippery pools in his brown leather Eccos. 

Losing balance in the blood-soaked sandals, he tripped on a large rock and fell backwards against the zinc fence that separated somebody’s property from the road. The man shielded his face and tried to locate a stick, a bottle, anything with his free hand, to help him fight off this beast that had materialized out of the darkness.
