Molly Finch got stuck with a delivery of over 200 lab rats after she stepped out with Juanita’s man. Was the law broken? You betcha. I’ve known Juanita all my life. She’s a good woman and had a right to be pissed, but this just ain’t her style. I had doubts, but I had no […]
Juanita’s my cousin, but she’s a bossy bitch. Sylvia’s a smart-ass city girl and Dixie’s a slut. They’re not the kinda women I want Charlene hanging around. She’s a beautiful, sweet girl who’s had some hard knocks in life. She’s not like them others. I know Juanita thinks I’m not good enough for Charlene, and […]
When I moved to Peachtree Hollow, I knew I’d found a magical place. Leaving the city, my shitty husband and a dead-end job to bring my kids home to the mountains had been the right thing to do. My new neighbor, Juanita, is a strong determined woman and reminds me of women in my own […]
I’m not like the others. I don’t dress like them, I don’t sound like them and I don’t think like them, but I’m starting to catch on. Raised by hippie parents in the suburbs, I moved here to get back to nature and make pots. Most of the time I’m broke and show up at […]
The other girls are looking for Mr. Right and a picket fence. Not me. I wanta have a good time. I wanta little fun outta life. When we first started our hell-fire revenge trip, I was doubtful we could pull it off, but I went along. After all, nobody likes to see some dumbass guy […]
When I hired Dan for day work on the construction crew, he couldn’t speak a word of Spanish and few of us spoke English. I was surprised to see an Anglo waiting on the corner with the hombres, but I took him on because I’d seen him earlier with Senora Maggie, my mother’s friend. He […]
I first met Dan Fields on a freezing winter night. His huge black dog had me pinned down so that I couldn’t run like my two friends had done. My gimpy leg and empty belly put me at a disadvantage and I was caught trying to drag off a sack of food. I know now […]
Animal guides have served man since the beginning of time. Having sharper senses and often greater physical abilities, animals guides can act as protectors and are beneficial to their human partners. The animal that chooses a person has affinity with that person, often displaying similar character and personality traits. In this personal relationship, the power or […]
I took one look at Dan and knew he was a Fields. I also sensed he had something to hide, but most of the Fields clan do. It’s strange how sharp your senses get when you’re close to death. My body was riddled with cancer and I had little time left. As it turned out, […]
From the time I was a little girl I could work magic. The “knowing” came down to me from my mother’s people all the way back through our Scotts ancestors. I already knew the herbs and roots needed for simple remedies and spells, but my Aunt Minna showed me the powerful ones, like witch hazel, […]
