R is for Reality

My A-Z Theme is based on my books, the Game On series. You won’t need to have read them to follow this story, since it’s slightly removed from the full plot, like a side story. What it will do is give you a glimpse into my characters, and a chance to get to know them a little bit, PLUS, during the story, you will get a mini tour of parts of the UK! The posts will come from two of my main characters, Leah Walker and Radleigh McCoy.  If this is your first time here, please start at the letter A. :D

R - Reality 

(Leah) 

“What do you think we should get Bree for her birthday?”

Radleigh’s eyes swivelled towards me for a second before putting his concentration back on the road again. “That’s what you’re thinking about right now?”

I smiled. We were on our way back to our holiday home after a fairly intense day of re-visiting some bad memories, but I was happy to have put them to rest. Thinking about the reality of what Radleigh and I had to look forward to was a good way of keeping my focus on the future instead of looking back.

I have a future with Radleigh McCoy? Wow. I wondered how long it would be before that would stop taking me by surprise.

“Yup,” I said. “I know we have a few weeks yet, but it’s her 21^st. We have to get her something special.”

“This isn’t really my area of expertise, Leah. Besides, you know Bree. She’ll be happy just to see you.”

That was true. Bree, for reasons I didn’t fully understand, had taken an instant liking to me. She looked up to me, and I thought of her as a little sister. She was a ball of energy, excitement and enthusiasm, with the power to brighten up anyone’s day just by being herself. A loveable chatterbox. Every time we spoke on the phone, I felt my mood lift, and I couldn’t wait to spend some time with her.

I know this post might seem a little bit short and lacking in detail, but Bree's birthday party is sort of a turning point for the Game On series, so it is important. :)

Today's teaser comes from the latest book in the Game On Series, Sidelined.

Blurb: At the age of twenty-one, Bree Collinson has more than she ever dreamed of. A handsome husband, a fancy house, and more shoes than Carrie Bradshaw and Imelda Marcos combined. But having everything handed to her isn’t the way Bree wants to live the rest of her life. When an idea to better herself pops into her head, she doesn’t expect her husband to question her, and keep her tied by her apron strings to the kitchen.

Isolated and unsure who to turn to, Bree finds herself falling back into a dangerous friendship, and developing feelings for the only person who really listens to her. Torn between her loyalty to her husband and her attraction to a man who has the perfect family she always wanted, she has some tough choices to make.

While Bree tries to figure out what she wants, a tragedy rocks the Westberg Warriors, triggering some dark memories, and pushing her to take a look at what’s really important.
