Long and Short Reviews welcomes Julia Talbot who is celebrating the recent release of Fox and Wolf.

Hey y’all!

I’m Julia Talbot, and I’m here to share an excerpt my new novella Fox and Wolf, which is book one in the Apex Investigations series.

“Then I should park right in front.” Dylan sighed, a world-weary sound, before putting the vehicle back in gear. “We don’t need to be running a mile if someone comes after us. I’ll make it clear I’m armed. With any luck they’ll think I’m a cop and leave us be.”

“You read as penal officer. No worries.”

“Gee, thanks.” Turning at a cul-de-sac, Dylan steered them back to his apartment. “Do I smell like prison sweat?”

“No. You smell like—” He inhaled, nose twitching. “—moonlight and water.”

Dylan laughed, the sound delighted. “Wow. That’s way better than cop car and doughnut crumbs.”

“Mmm. Doughnuts.” Rey had to grin. He loved sweets. With raisins. And frosting.

“Do you like them? I know a killer shop that does pastry and good coffee. Even this late in the day, they’ll have good stuff!” Dylan actually bounced. How utterly cute.

“Can we? After? I’d love that.” He’d need something good after all this bother.

“I would too. We’ll do it.” They slid to a stop, and Dylan put a hand on his arm when he would have hopped out of the SUV. “Give it just a moment.”

“Fine.” He wasn’t eager to go back there. Not at all.

Dylan watched everything, the rearview mirrors, the door to his apartment. He wasn’t sure what signs Dylan might be looking for, but Rey watched too.

That was his job, after all. Looking at everything. He didn’t see anything more than what he’d already noticed, but then he hadn’t the other day either.

Dylan shook his head. “I don’t like this. You know that, right?”

“Yes. You just want my clothes from the day of the pickup, correct?”

“That’s it. In and out.” Alan snapped his fingers.

“Indeed. In and out. Quick as a bunny.”

“Or a fox through a doggie door.” Dylan winked broadly, then pulled out his phone. “In case we need pictures, so I won’t have to fumble for it.”

Rey grabbed his key and nodded. “Let’s go.” He hopped out of the car and started toward the apartment, his entire body twitching from the vibrations he was sensing in the air and along the ground. Someone was watching. Hopefully it wasn’t someone with a gun.

“Hurry up, Mercier.”

“Yes. Yes, hurry up.” He couldn’t run. That triggered the prey drive in anything that might lay in wait for them.

Dylan already had the door open.

The smell made Rey gag and step back. Rotten. Rotten fish.

“Jesus. What is that?” Dylan turned his head, those pretty eyes watering.

“I don’t know. Nasty.” They couldn’t stay out here, but they couldn’t go into that.

“Come on.” Dylan rushed inside, barking, “Get your stuff.” He started snapping pictures of the main room, then the kitchenette.

Rey headed to the bedroom, trying not to breathe as he went to the en suite to dig through his laundry. The bathtub was filled with fetid water, and he shook his head. That was… so disturbingly wrong. Rey gathered all his stuff, including his lucky socks, but his eyes kept going to the tub.

The tub with bubbles rising from it.

“Dylan….”

Dylan came to the doorway, frowning. “What the ever-loving—”

He pointed to the horrifying green water. He was fairly certain there were eyeballs.

“Get back. Out.” Dylan yanked him out of the bathroom, spinning him toward the front door.

He didn’t question; he ran, screeching to a halt at the sight of a huge beast in the outside doorway.

Long and Short Reviews welcomes Julia Talbot who is celebrating the recent release of Night of the Living Manny.

Hey y’all!

I’m Julia Talbot, and I’m here to chat today about Night of the Living Manny, my new paranormal category romance from Dreamspinner Press!

Manny is a zombie book. Totally not a spoiler, right? Not with the title. I loved the challenge of writing it for the Dreamspun Beyond line, because those books are meant to be lighter, less scary, but still paranormal.

Let me tell you about the challenges of this! I write a lot of paranormal. Usually shifters or vampires. So this was humans trapped in an extraordinary situation. Plus kids. Plus a dog. Now, we all know how hard it is to get through a book wondering who will survive. With kids. And a dog.

Eek. I had to walk a fine line between suspense, the zombie genre, and keeping the publisher’s line in mind. I love a challenge, y’all. But the most difficult thing for me was no biting, no spankiness and no fated mates, which are usually my go -to paranormal loves.

Manny is, I hope, funny. Suspenseful. A true zombie story a la Shaun of the Dead. I had such a fun time weaving all the elements together, and my beta readers and editors really helped make the story flow. Timeline can be a challenge for me as a writer. So can the shiny squirrel syndrome. Let’s put this in! And this!

They had to rein me in some, but that’s okay.

There’s still kids. And a dog. And a science lab. What could possibly go wrong?

As a side note, I tend to listen to music as I write, but I found it really tough to make a playlist for this book. What I ended up doing was letting zombie movies play in the background while I typed away.

How cool is it that I can say I got to watch zombie movies for work? I do love my job.

Anyway, I hope y;all will give Night of the Living Manny a chance!
