#SnippetSunday Excerpt from Marked, Valeterra Series Book 1 – A BBW Paranormal Romance Coming Soon
Hello, everyone. I hope you had a great week.
Today, I’m picking up from where I left off two weeks ago with Marked, book one of my Valeterra series. This novella is a paranormal romance set in a parallel universe. It is currently in its second round of editing, but I do have a tentative synopsis and a cover, both of which you’ll find after the snippet. I’m aiming for a first of June release date if all goes well.
I’ve skipped ahead just a bit. The chapter I’m sharing from today is from Valerie’s point of view, and shows Stephanie meeting her for the first time.

“Excuse me,” the woman said, coming up to the table I was decorating. “I’m looking for Valerie Stutts. Would you know where I can find her?”
The woman looked prim and official in her gray skirt suit and heels. She had her hair pulled up in a tight bun. She made me think of a prettier version of a headmistress of a highly prestigious and strict prep school. I’d never seen such a person outside of movies and television shows, but she looked exactly like what I thought one of those ladies would look.
She didn’t hold her hand out for me to shake. She only stood with her briefcase in both hands in front of her and looked at me.
I rose from straightening the tablecloth I’d just finished decorating and said, “I’m Valerie.”

That’s it for today. I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you for stopping by. If you want to read more excerpts from other authors or if you want to join in the fun, stop by the Snippet Sunday FB page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/SnippetSunday/
***Side Note**** I’ll do my best each week to read all the post, but I take care of two older adults, one with dementia and one showing early signs of it, pretty much twenty-four hours a day, so some weeks, depending on health issues and doctors’ appointments, I might not get to everyone. I apologize if I don’t get to you.

Marked, Valeterra Series Book 1 – A BBW Paranormal Romance Coming Soon
For ten years, the people of Valeterra have watched a plague sweep across their world, killing nearly every supernatural creature in its path. As scientists from both the human world and Valeterra work on the way to stop the plague, the Valeterrian government is working on the way to repopulate their world with babies born immune to the disease.
In her thirties, single, and a bit of a bigger girl, Valerie has given up on ever finding love. She’s resigned herself to running her bookstore and growing old with only her baby sister. When a strange woman comes to her store with a story full of parallel universes, supernatural creatures, and plagues, and a proposal for how Valerie can help save Valeterra from extinction, Valerie is sure the woman is insane. Valerie’s opinion changes, though, when she loses her livelihood. Sad and angry, she throws caution to the wind and embarks on a journey that she fears will either kill her or break her heart.
Jackson lost his first mate over fifty years ago. He knows his world is in peril. He knows his pack is on shaky ground, but all the alpha wants to do is wallow in his grief. When he discovers that his second mate is a human woman who is also immune to the virus sweeping Valeterra, he has some hard decisions to make. He doesn’t want a new mate. He also knows that he can’t deny his second chance at love and the first real chance his world might have at eventually recovering from so much death.

#SnippetSunday Excerpt from Marked, Valeterra Series Book 1 – Coming Soon
Hello, everyone. I’m sorry I missed you all last week. I started taking a new prescription that took me a few days to get used to taking.
Anyway, on to what you’ve come here for. Today, I’m picking up from where I left off two weeks ago with Marked, book one of my Valeterra series. This novella is a paranormal romance set in a parallel universe. It is currently in editing, but I do have a tentative synopsis and a cover, both of which you’ll find after the snippet.
The following is from Jackson’s point of view.
---
“I want you to handle these two yourself, please. They’re sisters. They live together. Approach the older one first, though.”
I pulled the files out a bit to indicate the two women to which I was referring. She looked down at the top one—my mate’s file—but again, she didn’t react.
“I can do that,” she said, before turning back to the door.
“Thank you,” I said to her retreating form.
I didn’t want a mate. I wanted to wallow in my grief for my deceased wife, but the wolf part of me wouldn’t allow the woman in that file to get away.
