“GIVE ME SOME GOOD news, Rae.” Janelle’s voice is part threat,
part plea. Since we’ve been friends forever, we don’t really bother
with formalities even if she’s my literary agent now. “We’ve already
asked for two extensions. You’re not going to make me ask for a third, are
you?”
I put Janelle on speakerphone and stare at the mocking, blinking cursor
on my laptop screen. When I minimize the window, my social media feed
pops into view. It’s an endless stream of mentions, full of fan requests for
the final installment of my paranormal romance family saga centered
around gruff but loveable bear shifters.
No. I definitely can’t request a third extension on my deadline. The loyal,
passionate fans might—as one fiery reader suggested—riot. Or turn up at
my regular writing haunts with shining, hopeful eyes and a bunch of
questions I don’t have answers to.
Besides, my dwindling bank account should be motivation enough to
finish the damn book. My siblings are bound to want to use the family
beach condo soon, and I won’t have the expansive, cavernous place to
myself anymore.
If there’s one thing I don’t need, it’s more attention.
And that’s what my world-famous celebrity family attracts everywhere
they go.
Me? I don’t mind the flash of cameras on occasion, but I’m not drawn to
the lure of the red carpet or the unglamorous lack of privacy that came with
the Golding name as soon as the adoption paperwork cleared. It’s a life my
A-lister parents chose for themselves, and one my five famous siblings
chased after. I’m the exception to the Golding rule–less entertainer and
more big dreamer.
“Of course I’m going to make my deadline!” I say brightly, fingers
playing idly with the trio of gemstones hanging from my neck. It’s the one
token item I have from my birth parents, the only piece of jewelry I never
take off.
“Oh, thank God. For a minute there, I thought Gia’s next album was
going to drop before I wrestled another manuscript out of you,” Janelle
laughs. The sound is tinny, relief pulsing in every word. “How much
progress have you made?”
No more than the last time she asked, but I’m not about to admit to that.
My jaw tightens at the mention of my prolific sister’s hyper-productivity.
For every book I write, Gia puts out at least two albums. Not that anyone’s
counting.
“Don’t worry, I’ll get it done and it’ll be amazing.” I try to reassure both
of us while glancing at the scattered notes strewn about my desk. I’d spent
my whole morning poring over them, trying to make sense of my chicken
scratch writing and fragmented notes.
My desk is a mess. Like my book. Like my mind. Everything feels
scattered as if the details of the tale I’ve spent the last six years
painstakingly piecing together have been reduced to a thousand different
threads I can’t tidily weave together. But somehow, someway, it must be
done.
