Excerpt:

Two hours later he was back up, pacing the floor, beyond annoyed. Why was he doing this now? He knew who his mate was supposed to be, and he wanted no part of it. He was responsible for himself only, and he liked it that way. Too bad the spirit that shared his body didn’t agree.

Really? What about all those people at the bar who depend on you?

“It’s not the same thing, and you know it.” A quick glance out his bedroom window confirmed dawn was about to break.

Freaking A, arguing with you is like arguing with a signpost. Why don’t you go stretch your wings, old man? We’ll chill on the breeze. Shift and we’ll find a nice juicy pigeon or rabbit for breakfast. That sounds dee-lish.

Hawk rolled his neck. His totem spirit’s mentality was that of a fifteen-year-old hopped up on sugar and running on three hours of sleep. The spirit was very old, but damned if it acted its age.

Whatever, dude. Just do something, will ya?

M.A. was kind enough to answer some questions for me!

The days are 25 hours. How do you spent that extra hour?

*laugh* There was a time when I’d say I’d spend that hour alone… ‘me’ time, you know? I taught kids, then came home to deal with my own kids who were into all sorts of after-school activities. There were some nights we didn’t get home until seven at night. After dinner, baths, homework, and reading time, all I wanted was time for myself.

Now the kids have moved out, and I no longer work outside the house, I’d like to spend that hour talking with the kids, lol.

What is for you the perfect book hero?

Someone with an Alpha attitude, but able to love. Someone who isn’t perfect... No one is, so why should a hero be? Everyone makes mistakes, and I like to see the hero mess up and then learnfrom it. That’s the big time for me. I want to see him grow as the book goes along.

Who is your favorite character in To Touch the Sky?

You might think it would be Hawk, but it’s not. He has flaws, that’s for sure. And it’s not Simon either. He may be confused by Hawk’s actions, but he’s trying to work with Hawk. Both characters are special, but my favorite is the totem. LOL. Yup. He’s the one with a level head, even if he acts like a kid hopped up on sugar, lol. He may be all cool and stuff, but he is the voice of reason.

Meet M.A.Church

M.A. Church is a true Southern belle who spent many years in the elementary education sector. Now she spends her days lost in fantasy worlds, arguing with hardheaded aliens on far-off planets, herding her numerous shifters, or trying to tempt her country boys away from their fishing poles. It’s a full time job, but hey, someone’s gotta do it!

When not writing, she’s exploring the latest M/M novel to hit the market, watching her beloved Steelers, or sitting glued to HGTV. That’s if she’s not on the back porch tending to the demanding wildlife around the pond in the backyard. The ducks are very outspoken. She’s married to her high school sweetheart, and they have two children.

She was a finalist in the Rainbow awards for 2013.
