Rising Sun: The Playlist

 

A road trip playlist, but make it tense and unsettling.

LHM: Every Awful Thing

He said, “I would beg you to go anyway. Because our babies need you. Because I need you, and I…” His next breath hitched. “I don’t know if I can keep you safe while I’m down there. I don’t…” He glanced away, and scrubbed a hand over his mouth. “Every awful thing that’s ever happened to me happened in that place,” he said, quietly, through the gaps in his fingers. “I don’t want you to get sucked into it.”

Despite all the effort she’d put into shielding herself, a part of her softened in the face of his expression, his posture, his tone. The clear evidence of the demons that still haunted him, all these many years later. They’d stood over his dad’s and his grandmother’s unsanctioned graves out in the swamp, the ones he’d dug himself, and he’d clung to her, and his hot tears had slid down her cheek and neck. He’d been vibrating, not only with grief, but with the fear that she might, after everything, after marrying him, reject him for what he saw as his weakness. His darkness.

She’d thought, after eight years of marriage, that he’d learned his weakness was hers as well. That she shared that darkness. 

I think this installment, more than any of the others - including Part 4, which I'm currently working on - shows some of the strongest men at their absolute lowest, which gives the ladies a chance to shine as the true steel backbone of not only their individual families, but the club as a whole. Ava's gone Full Terminator...but the others are holding the Lean Dogs together while Ava has her own little stone-cold reverse breakdown. 

I'm excited to talk about my favorite scenes in the debrief posts. I'm trying to hold off for a while to give everyone a chance to read...buy I might start tomorrow. Maybe Friday. While it's all still fresh in my head, at least.

This installment starts at full-throttle and never lets up. It's all rising action and it ratchets up the tension every chapter. 

I'll start with debriefing in a few days, but for now, hold on tight, happy reading, and a review would be lovely if you get the chance! 

3/4

My proofs for Lord Have Mercy Part III: Rising Sun arrived in the mail yesterday, so now it's time for editing. I've been feeling pretty "meh" and discouraged this week thinking about how much book is still left to write, and how much work it's going to be, so I decided to take my physical copies, stack them together, and give everyone an idea of where we stand 3/4th of the way through the unreasonably large tenth installment of the Dartmoor Series. 

Part 3 is the shortest section yet, at only 237 pages (in print) but it's a wallop of a punch as far as tension goes. Rising Sun separates our intrepid bikers into three main groups, each with a different objective, but never fear: all of them will reconvene in Part 4 and serve up some badly-needed justice to everyone who's earned it. 

Parts 1 through 3 together total 938 pages. 

938 pages!! 

Fearless was 738, for reference. And we're not even done! I have my suspicions that its final form will be too long to be printed into one paperback edition. If that's the case, I'll leave it in four parts for paperback, but WILL offer a compiled Kindle edition, the price for which will be the total of all four Kindle editions combined. The cost will end up being the same whether you purchased it in installments, or all at once, to keep things balanced. 

It's going to take a lot of coffee and a lot of long walks to get to the finish line. Wish me luck. Part 3 will *hopefully* be available in a week or so.
