I apologize for that since I’m not sure if I’ve shared recently or effectively which books are parts of a series. I aim to rectify that today.

Every time I read that scene (which I'm doing during the current editing process), I tear up.

All of it was helpful, even the input that made me revisit why I entered the Secular market in the first place. I needed to reaffirm my peace in that area. Needed to make sure I hadn’t gotten off track somewhere. To the person that prompted that re-visitation, I want to say a fond THANK YOU for having my spiritual back.

Of taking the focus off of myself and putting the spotlight onto others. How doing so is actually a fantastic form of giving. So here’s another shout-out. This one is to a new wedding planner straight out of the Atlanta area.

He threw his cell phone to the ground, uncaring if it broke or not. Three steps were the most he could take before he had to stop and lean against the wall for support.

Laughter abounded. Delia completely forgot about Vanna, the spotlight, her past and anything else that divided them. It wasn’t until she pulled into his long driveway that things started to rapidly turn serious between them. “Thanks for bringing me home, Delia,” Royal said, reluctant to get out of the car, Suprinahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04097147272286189832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19487719.post-18694206581025099682008-03-27T02:17:00.001-04:002008-03-27T02:31:05.398-04:00Pursuing Mrs. Regrets - Ch. 22.3Royal waited until the show was over before making his presence known to Delia. She seemed surprised, no, shocked to see him. “H…how long have you been here?” Delia stammered out. “Since the beginning.

His heart ached for the family he left behind. Not his mother, mind you, since Greta had been the biggest leech of them all on E-Blade’s finances. No, he missed Delia and their kids.
