I’m still keeping you all intrigued with the beginning of the series [amazon_link id=”B00BEMN5SC” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Changing Tracks (The Dominion Falls Series book 1)[/amazon_link]. You know, my amnesiac with the eidetic memory, Jane Doe…and the brothel-owner, anti-hero…Cole Mitchell.
Now we’re back in Jane’s POV. Getting close to the end of the story. Much has happened I can’t explain, but among them, Cole sold the contract on his doctoring whore {Daisy} to another, less “friendly” brothel owner Daisy tries to tell Jane it’s all right, but Jane is having none of it…and in this 8 is my favoritest line ever (the one about the chicken):
“He said the money was too good; after the last attack he needed cash to fix up the saloon and I was the fast way to get it.” Daisy took a shaky breath and forced a smile. “At least I get to dress better, and he’s going to let me do some doctoring.”
“Painting the feathers of a chicken doesn’t make it a peacock.” Jane glared at Guy’s amused visage. “I’m going to kill them both. Stupid men and their pissing contests. They’ll never understand what idiots they are.”
*Please forgive creative punctuation…I just had to include all these lines 😉 *~* Did you like this sample, too? You can pick up the whole series now!! *~*

Heh. I have a mental image of a painted and annoyed looking chicken now…
I get the feeling things aren’t going to be okay for Daisy, even as she tries to put a brave face on it. 🙁
LMAO. I have that mental image a lot too…I actually had an artist draw it…after the first of the year I hope to have T-shirts made 😀
