I've been pretty inconsistent with posting chapters the last few weeks and I totally forgot to post these two last weekend cuz it was my birthday. So here are chapters 22 and 23! The story is starting to wrap up and climb toward the climax so I'm pretty excited to share the ending! It's one I looked forward to since writing book 1.
Here's a little excerpt from chapter 23:

Here's a little excerpt from chapter 23:
Once Tabitha had filled the others in on what
happened, had showered and changed they all went out to scour the city. She
wouldn’t rest until she found Sebastian.
It wasn’t safe for him or anyone else for him to be roaming around the city in
his condition. For once she wished New Orleans wasn’t so big. The city and the
hustle and bustle made it nearly impossible to find anyone. They searched high
and low, every corner, every street, or at least all the ones they could cover
before nightfall. Once the sun began to set Tabitha leaned against a nearby
wall on a random street corner, running a hand through her hair. What if she
couldn’t find him? What if he had left for her own good? No doubt he was
beating himself up over having bitten her. She knew Sebastian would never do
that on purpose, not in his right mind. But that didn’t mean he didn’t feel
guilty for it. Frowning at the memory, she rubbed her hand over the spot where
he had bitten into her.
There was still so much to do. The clock was ticking
and if Emmeline had been at that club last night then she knew about Emilio.
She had no doubt Emilio would have told Emmeline where to find Thomas Sterling’s grave for the right price and
with Alistair backing Emmeline, they could pay any price he asked for. Which
meant she didn’t have time to go hunting down Sebastian. Her heart wanted to do
so badly. She wanted to search for him day and night, no rest, no food. Just
look for him until she found him and could help him. He was out there
somewhere, alone and scared and hungry and probably in pain. Not to mention he
wasn’t safe with Emmeline roaming around the city. But… she had to find Thomas’s
grave. She had to get there before Emmeline did, even if it meant putting
Sebastian in the backseat.
