“He’ll be dziadzio.”
“Judge-oo. Yeah. Right, so there’re plenty of babysitters.”
“You have it all planned, huh?”
He nodded smugly. Anything he set his mind to, he became an expert at. He wasn’t cocky. It was the truth. “How hard can it be?” Her peel of harmonious laughter was infectious, and he couldn’t resist smiling along with her. “What’s so funny?”
Tears formed in her eyes and she wiped them with her arm. “Oh, nothing. You’ll see, I guess. But thank you.” She entwined her fingers in his and brought their two hands to her lips.
“For what, knocking you up?”
“For making me realize that living is worth the risk to my heart.”
He frowned, hating that she once thought dying to protect her family was ever an option. “I’ll protect your heart before my own.”
“How about we just do it together?”
“Perfect.”
She kissed him gently on the lips, then pulled back, eyes wide. “I just remembered something. I stole Grace’s lab coat from downstairs.”
“What for?”
She gave him a saucy look and then indicated for him to follow her to the bedroom. “If you have to ask that, are you even my boyfriend?”
“I don’t need to ask.” He laughed and chased after her, running toward something he loved for the first time in his life.

WHAT’S NEXT?
Well, that’s the end of Wrath, but not the end of Wyatt and Misha’s relationship. They’re having a baby, y’all!
I’m super excited and can’t wait to show you little tidbits of how this grumpy, brooding and no nonsense hero will deal with having to juggle his new responsibilities. This baby could spell big trouble. Not only could it be super-powered, but it could be hunted by the Syndicate!
Sloan will have a few things to say about that. For starters, the next book is all about her, so don’t get too attached to Wyatt just yet, Sloan needs to prove she’s just as badass as anyone with a penis. But you won’t get the chance to read Sloth until the end of the year.
Until then, you can grab a super advance peek at the first chapter in Sloth. So exclusive and early that I’ve barely finished writing it, and it could be subject to change, but I’m pretty happy with it. Click the link below to sign up for updates, and you’ll get the first chapter sent straight to your inbox (with some other special Deadly goodies not far behind).
Hells, yeah!

The Hildegard Sisterhood
The Hildegard Sisterhood are nuns with a history reaching back to medieval times when the original Sister Hildegard struggled against a male dominated clergy. Now the world know her as the founder of scientific history in Germany, but back then, her opinions were disregarded until she claimed to have visions from God himself. Belittling herself as a woman in order to be heard was only the beginning of the humiliation the woman faced.
So she started her own abbey filled with women. That same abbey exists today and is a place where women are celebrated and their education encouraged—minus the male influence. Records at the Sisterhood archives reveal they had a hand in the rise of many women over history from Joan of Arc to Indira Ghandi. From Catherine the Great to Margaret Thatcher.
Under the surface of the auspicious abbey lays the secret mission that no woman will ever suffer the same struggle as Hildegard and they condition a select few “Sinners” to enforce this mission. These Sinners are trained as assassins for the cause: Sinners like Mary Lazarus. A necessary evil.
In the prequel novella, Sinner, Mary Lazarus escaped the Sisterhood who wanted to use the children for their own gain, much like the Syndicate who created them. To this day, she is still on the run.

About the Author
OMG! How do you say my name?
Lana (straight forward enough - Lah-nah) Pecherczyk (this is where it gets tricky - Pe-her-chick).
I’ve been called Lana Price-Check, Lana Pera-Chickywack, Lana Pressed-Chicken, Lana Pech…that girl! You name it, they said it. So if it’s so hard to spell, why on earth would I use this name instead of an easy pen name?
To put it simply, it belonged to my mother. And she was my dream champion.
For most of my life, I’ve been good at one thing – art. The world around me saw my work, and said I should do more of it, so I did.
But when at the age of eight, I said I wanted to write stories, and even though we were poor, my mother came home with a blank notebook and a pencil saying I should follow my dreams, no matter where they take me for they will make me happy. I wasn’t very good at it, but it didn’t matter because I had her support and I liked it.
She died when I was thirteen, and left her four daughters orphaned. Suddenly, I had lost my dream champion, I was split from my youngest two sisters and had no one to talk to about the challenge of life.
So, I wrote in secret. I poured my heart out daily to a diary and sometimes imagined that she would listen. At the end of the day, even if she couldn’t hear, writing kept that dream alive.
Eventually, after having my own children (two firecrackers in the guise of little boys) and ignoring my inner voice for too long, I decided to lead by example. How could I teach my children to follow their dreams if I wasn’t? I became my own dream champion and the rest is history, here I am.
When I’m not writing the next great action-packed romantic novel, or wrangling the rug rats, or rescuing GI Joe from the jaws of my Kelpie, I fight evil by moonlight, win love by daylight and never run from a real fight.
