Summary

The first Derrick Olin novel originally published in 2007. Excerpt from Tragic City, the latest novel in the series coming in 2023... Bridgett Lemons was a young woman on the verge of realizing all of her dreams. In just a few short months she would be on the path to the life she had always wanted. But when an abusive Ex comes back into her life and threatens to destroy everything she’s worked so hard for, Bridgett has no place to turn. Or maybe just one. Derrick Olin, at one time a top Air Force antiterrorism operative, now a freelance professional bodyguard. He agrees to take on Bridgett’s case and soon finds himself confronting an unbalanced combat vet obsessed with his client and seemingly bent on self-annihilation. Complicating matters further, there’s someone even more dangerous stalking the Ex. Someone who wants to make sure that the dark secrets torturing the young soldier’s twisted mind stay buried forever! And if Bridgett and Derrick get in the way, they’ll bury them too. If they can!

Leigh looked at me and grinned.

The waitress brought our drinks and was in the process of setting them on the table in front of each of us when suddenly I glanced up toward the entrance, and there he stood, dressed just as he had been the last time I saw him. How in the hell did he keep getting into places looking and smelling like that?

Stanley Toccata.

His arms were down by his sides and his hands back behind his legs and I couldn’t tell if he had anything in them. He was wearing a baggy ACU[6] jacket that looked like it was about to fall apart, but it could conceal an entire arsenal of small arms, or an explosives belt for that matter. Sometimes having a fertile imagination was not such a good thing.

Some of the students seated at other tables near the front started to notice him, more like smelled him at first, and they reacted predictably. Then Bridgett turned and all the color drained from her face.

“Stanley!” she said in an urgent and shrill voice, recoiling.

Leigh turned to look and Charmane looked back over her shoulder…

Hi Jenna K.,

I just finished reading your story Wolf Bound and I loved it so much. Your writing is amazing, and I kept thinking how cool it would look as a comic.

I really loved the scene in Chapter 4 where Mia embraces her wolf heritage during the moonlit ceremony the raw emotion and vivid descriptions would be incredible to portray visually. It’s ideal for a comic because the transformation and spiritual connection you described would make for stunning, dynamic panels. I also really enjoyed the tense standoff between Mia and the rival alpha in Chapter 7  the build-up of conflict and the charged energy between them would translate perfectly into dramatic artwork.

I’m a commissioned artist, and I’d love to draw your story into a comic/manga. No pressure though, I just think your work would look awesome in comic form.

You can check out some of my recent work on my DeviantArt (Username - Ev3Verse). If you’re interested, please message me on Discord (Username - Eve_verse) so we can bring the story to life visually. I'll be waiting to hear from you!

Regards,
Evee

Farial-Jap-Girl: なんて素敵で、予想もしなかった読書体験なんでしょう! これは間違いなく、ありきたりな恋愛小説ではありません。むしろ、そうじゃないことに感謝したいくらいです。登場人物たちがとてもリアルに感じられるんです。欠点があって、複雑で、情熱的で、人間らしい「白か黒かでは割り切れない」魅力的なグレーの部分に満ちています。怒りや支配、愛、そして怒りの赤い霧に飲み込まれそうになったときに、別の道を選ぶ可能性を描いているところも、とても好きでした。でも正直、一番の驚きは、この本がとにかく楽しく読めたこと! 作者はヒロインの声を見事に描き出していて、私はすっかり別の時代、別の場所へ連れ去られたような気分になりました...

jo987_123: This is a good story, but it needs a good editor to go through this iteration and fix the mistakes. The pov changes from 1st person to 3rd person, often, and sometimes within one sentence. It needs a liberal sprinkling of punctuation marks throughout, and a decision needs to be made about the char...
