Hello everyone,

As many of you already know, I've decided to work on publishing my Unexpected Series.

It's going to be hard work to make sure that I'm putting out my best work for all of you that have started with me from the beginning of this journey.

I'm fairly certain there will be many panic attacks along the way, but I'm determined to get my work out into the world so that many of you can hold in your very hands a copy of the first AND second book in the Unexpected Series.

Right now, it's still in the earlier stages, however, please sign up for my newsletters on my website: roxannseason.com

While I'm in the process, I do have to remove a percentage of the story so that I can publish it. I've decided to take out the last 20-30% of the story.

By subscribing to my newsletters, you'll get emails from me when I have secret news (such as when I'll publish Unconditional, Unbroken, His Forgotten Mate, Loving Ashlynn and Shattered) I only share with my treasured and enthusiastic readers.

Also be the first to know when:The Unexpected Series (Book 1) is going to be released and where you can pre-order/order your copy.

Just think of Scratch like His Forgotten Mate, I wanted you to have background, before we meet them, that's all. I try my best not to put details that would confuse you if you haven't read the story but at some point, you're going to wonder what exactly some comment meant and you may or may not go check that story out.



Well Scratch is JUST like that. The Elders are looking for:

- The head Fae (she's the female lead in Scratch)

- Chelsea/Gabriel (Are mentioned in Scratch)

- Kaden, Liam, Kieran, and those he helped escaped (Scratch is Kaden's story...)

- The rings (were created by Wyatt - you learn more about who he is in Scratch)

- The violins (Oddly not mentioned in Scratch...lol)



Things you learn in Scratch:

- Chelsea and Gabriel (and the team) are looking for Abigail and Marshall Clemente (Caelums supposed children)... people reading that story are ahead of the game... which is why you probably see comments like:

"I can't wait for Kaden/Etta to meet Chelsea..."

or

"How much longer until Kaden and Etta go to the Island?"

- Kaden's story (he was kidnapped by the Elders when he was 19)

- The head Fae that the Elders are killing covens looking for... she's in Scratch...



So yeah... you don't have to read that story, I'm sure when I mention something and you don't understand you can just ask and someone that has read the story will answer :) because I have awesome readers that I really love. They are super kind and will answer questions...

anyways this is long enough of an A/N so, enjoy

roxann :)

QUESTIONS/comments FROM PREVIOUS CHAPTERS with my responses:

THEY ALL NEED TO COME ON SO CHELSEA CAN GO OFF on AMELIA AND SARAH.

Yeah... I'm not bringing them to the island, like that will never happen. The thing with Oakley, Amelia and Sarah, Pat is the one that brought all this drama in... I mean he overcompensated for one child while ignoring the other. Someone said that it's like I'm writing about two different people in one person, which is so conflicting but that's exactly who Pat is. It's not that I'm making him innocent or redeemable because honestly, he isn't... I've said it time and time again, Oakley is the one that can truly grow here, Pat is so tied up, he's so deep in his own mistakes that I'd need to write a book about him alone to get him on the right path and it's not his story. I know some people may want some happy ending where he welcomes Oakley back and picks her over Amelia but that is not going to happen. Families - even in fictional stories -can be estranged.





Well it sounds like Amelia manipulating again. Hope Pat gets to read Oakley's diary. He's such a clueless pri©k. Agreed, he won't get Oakley's undying love, but he'll get that diary. If readers think he's conflicted right now? Wait until he gets Oakley's diary.



Could it be that Sarah is one of the unseen members of the elders? NO. I'll answer it now... Sarah isn't an unseen just a really insecure woman.



I dont think its a good idea for Chelsea to put the pat and the family with them in the island (as much as I love grandpa and grandma to be reunited with the kids) because the the bad elders would know something is up since they were watching oakley and ben before and still might be watching. This might give them bigger hint that Chelsea and everyone is still alive and find them. Yup... agreed. I'm sure everyone knows who's coming to the island next... right?? Guesses?



Gabriel: Pack suspected for loss of mate...BLOW IT UP

We need a way to kidnap Oakley,Ben Grant and Julia...BLOW THA CAR UP

Information about us possibly in the house...BLOW IT UP

Oakley and Julias family investigating our whereabouts and have personal info from hospital and police station that could get us caught...BLOW-

Chelsea: Not this time.. OKAY, THIS WAS SERIOUSLY... I LAUGHED SO HARD, I CRIED! That being said... I'm really consistent with my characters... Gabriel he's intelligent but as much as Chelsea needed to grow so did he. I mean he was raised by George... another sh!tty-father.





See.. See. Something isn't right about Sarah. Even a 14 year old see's how bad this can be for their relationship. & how can she (any woman) be okay with that.

I think it's possible for her to be an unseen, because like Phillip (I think that was his name) said, you do anything the elders ask of to make your part believable.. (He even had a family, he left behind).

But if not, I'm all for an unknown plot twist concerning Sarah!!! Yes... there is something wrong with Pat NOW trying to find Norine and I'll be honest, I think I've given up just about a few clues as to who Sarah really is. I get what you're saying that Phillip said about how you are who they want you to be, but Sarah really is just an insecure woman. I mean I have a friend, and his mom and dad own a bunch of apartment buildings and whatnot. Yesterday, he told me that his dad, has one of his ex girlfriends living in one of those places for free. He said his mom was acting funny and when he was like 'what's up?' She tells him that she's so embarrassed but she can't tell anyone about that, and she doesn't - she has no options. Why? Because literally everything is in his fathers name... she is financially dependent on this man - and he knows it. She's always been this stay at home mom, taking care of the kids, she didn't go to school... like she's stuck and hurting over this. This woman is Sarah... I've said it before she moved into Norines home, she didn't get a job, Pat works, she stays home. The house wasn't even in her name, they didn't get the insurance money, she's pregnant with twins... it might hurt her feelings that he's doing this but what can Sarah really say? Don't look for your ex-wife which might lead to your kids because it hurts me? Amelia is fourteen and worried that her mom and her will go back to her life when she was seven and struggling and Pat found them.





I think the maze would be great because it will be bittersweet once they are all back together again. Also Ben and Oak will know they weren't written off like Norine. I hope Pat is man enough to address Amelia. It still seem as if he is more worried about hurting them than finding his children. All will be revealed in due time so I won't rush because I don't want the book to ever end. Peace&Love Haha... won't keep the book going that long but one more is promised. Pat Lawson... he's... like I know everyone was like "write his POV! Write his POV" and it's so far from what I know. Like I'm not a parent, but I have two AWESOME parents. My mom is my best friend, and my dad is pretty cool too. So for me to write Pat, I have to go against all the things my dad were, all the things I would love to eventually find in some future guy and like write from the bottom of the bottom lol. Like each time I write from Pat's POV I cry for Oakley because I mean people aren't perfect, but I can imagine some person in real life going through this... going out of their way, doing little things for just a bit of recognition and not getting it.





I agree with the fan that said she wasn't going to read any more until you wrote a lot so she could spend a lot of time reading. I was going to wait until you finished the story and then read the whole, but I couldn't wait. I have to tell you this: You are your writting and your writting is you!!!!!!!!!!!!everything you do is so sincere and so clean. I love it. So, here I am reading one chapter at a time,. I don't like it but I'll keep on doing it as a tribute to you for yor excellent stories. Right now I'm taking a break to read Scratch. See you later on Unbroken. GBY!!!!!!!!!! I've tried doing that before... not reading something until the author wrote more but... then it was like all I could think about, did they update? Did they update? Which led to me checking twice as much as before lol. So uhm... goodluck? I'm pretty fast about updating... I mean I started writing this in January/February? It's April and I'm almost done. It's nearly five hundred pages... I update unless I have to study or do something for my parents or help somewhere, I volunteer at a children's hospital too... I basically play with kids who are getting checkups for volunteer hours. So yeah, but I set aside time to update daily. Unless I'm sick which I can't expect or avoid. Plus I have a life outside things like studying/working...



I love how you can give your characters separate personalities from yourself, and how u question their choices when u made them. It actually shows how much work you put into these characters.. This is just overall an amazing series... thank you... that's really hard to do... like I said with Pat, you know going to the bottom of the barrel to write him lol. I know better than Kieran and some of the others, I know that if someone hurts you, it's not your fault, you aren't to blame. I mean I had a friend that got roughed up at school and she was wearing sandals, tight skinny jeans and a top with a shirt unbuttoned over it, she was completely covered I mean compared to what some other people wear to school and the teacher was like, maybe you shouldn't dress so provocative. (Creep). And for a while she got really self-conscious about like everything she would wear, when it wasn't her fault. I mean I didn't know skinny jeans was like code for invade and disrespect my personal space. So yeah, even when I just want to write that Kieran gets that he wasn't at fault, that it was the others, I know that he's not in the right place yet to admit that to himself, but I get all happy when I finally have him make any sort of improvement because it's so long overdue.-I'm a geek like that.





Nooo!!! There are too many people working for the elders, let us have something normal and let Sarah be one of those people who just are selfish and think only of them selvs. Just like we have seen her so far.

P.s i hope next chapter is Pats pov with a lot of Amelia in it. We haven't really seen much of her, and i would love to see more :) Glad you are Okay ;) You said it perfectly right... she doesn't need to be an Unseen, Sarah has been unbelievable all on her own.





As a woman a mother she came in this situation f*** up.... Not thinking about the kids but hers and u never ever talk about someone mother no matter what u feel. To me!! Pat, is a very hated character...Why cuz he is a father and totally disregarded that and yes he did cheat but he made his own choices and the outcome is f**** up. Blind wake the f*** up you choose to be that way and the daughter that you and Sarah are raising Lord help her... So TRUE!! Someone said that if anything they feel HORRIBLE for those two twins that are going to have Sarah and Pat as parents. I have to agree, I mean Oakley I'll never say that what she did in the beginning was JUST on Pat, she had so much going on, that it wouldn't be fair to say it was ALL his fault. But he checked out and then she sorta did too. And then Oakley and Ben sorta depended on each other and when Oakley finally thought, okay dad's ready to be a dad, he had guilt over not knowing about Amelia, trying to outdo himself because Sarah had it in Amelia's head that her father abandoned her. And I know someone people are like Amelia is too manipulative, teens aren't like that... really? Because I had an older sibling that could rival Amelia, Maggie... Ames... all of them siblings lol - Granted my parents would be like, "stop... just stop... cut the crying and tantrum out and lets start over again..."



I don't think Sarah is working for the elders. But someone tipped them off as to where Norine was. If not Sarah, then who? And It will take a lot to get Kerian back to where he feels safe. Seven years is a long time to do that to a child. Exactly what I was saying before...even though I want to just write the next chapter that he's all good, because it hurts my heart that he's still not there, I'm going to let him get there at his pace, not the pace I want... if that makes sense. Yeah, seven years of this was horrible, but even if it was just once, to break the trust of a child like that, is horrendous on its own.



Pat leaves me speechless. I can't find a way to feel bad for him. He is truly a man who made his bed and must lie in it. Sarah and Amelia are terrible people and he deserves them. The tragedy is the pain everyone else has to deal with because he is such a weak man. If not for his choices Oakley, Ben , Grant,Julia, his parents, and Julia's family wouldn't be going through so much pain and heartbreak. While I would never think poorly of babies these twins don't stand much of a chance with Pat and Sarah as parents. Pat makes my blood boil. Thanks for such a great chapter! You said it... its those babies... they don't stand a chance.



See see.. What is there to repair??? It's not a lose screw.. The whole bridge collapse!!

How is he going to make it all up??..when Oakley and Ben will be returning with more hurtful secrets needing to be revealed to them. Oakley is going to come back strong, I really believe that, but I'm sure revealing her fathers infidelity to her mother and the consequence of that infidelity....will still hurt. I doubt they can just come back and get to talking. Oakley is going to come back and be able to talk about what she grew out of (like her insecurities, and the reason for them), but having a another hurtful secret revealed - she's going to be caught of guard. I love that you noted this, I mean I would never have Oakley learn this stuff if Chelsea and Gabriel are finding it out as it happens, I mean it would be counterproductive to Oakley, which is why I'm saying Oakley is hurting yes, but to me... Oakley is most like Kaden. If you're not reading that story my description won't make sense but I want her to go back, stronger, I mean she's asking someone no one on the island can answer, 'why couldn't he love us both?' her wounds are deep right now, but when she heals, I PROMISE she'll be able to handle Pat, Sarah, and Amelia.



I really do like Pat's POV.... Slowly (& I mean real slowly) he's opening his eyes... But he still seems selfish. He wants it all, and I can't wait when Oakley and Ben, and I hope Norine too, come back and show him it's not possible. Really show him the consequences for everything...cheating, lying, moving on with no real direction. He really is that way, and so even before Oakley was on the island, when she was in the hospital, I gave everyone a bit of a preview of how she thinks when it comes to what Pat wants. The only difference when they meet the second time, is the strength and growth Oakley has when she tells him what's, what.



One mistake? Wow. This boy can't count. Let's make a list shall we: Sarah, hoe sex, not looking for wife, uncaring to oak and ben, invited hoe plus amelia into house, married hoe, different standards for amelia, unprotected sex with hoe again leading to pregnancy... list is to long to list them all. one time? HAHA, YEAH I MEANT, with Sarah... he wasn't having some long affair with her, more will come out, in his last POV of this book, but you're right he's making mistakes left and right.



OK Pat's character is like I'm reading about two different people and they don't blend I know he's one character in an amazing series over three books but since we've been reading about him lately I'm a lot confused. A man has to be so in love with his wife in order to be so devastated that he checks out on his kids and he hates Norine so much that he treats his own daughter like she's nobody because she looks like her mother. Now that man wouldn't have an affair over an argument but I'll buy it if there was alcohol involved and let's face it he's a man. I can even see him throwing himself into his relationship with Sara and Amelia (he checked out on his kids and everything for YEARS until that right) but to me that's rebound trying to forget Norine that's why he jumps in with both feet (also he finds out about Amelia). He says he doesn't love Norine anymore but all his actions say other words and he loves Sara?? Not like he loved Norine then finding out she didn't leave him but was murdered or taken its been three months since that revaluation I understand he's going through an emotional tornado. but his actions are off he should be Norine obsessive everything he repressed over Norine should be hitting him like a tsunami especially how he treated Oakley he should be a drowning man. I don't buy this dedication he has towards Sara especially now that he's finding out these sneaky things she's done. Do I think he loves Sara yes but a conformable companionship type love that developed over the years. Unless Like I said there's two different men your writing about. That being said I don't know what else you have yet to reveal or what twist you have in store I know you have the outcome in your head already. It's just I don't see it Pat is so unredeemable in this story that I have to believe you don't have a rabbit your going to pull out of your hat that will blow our mines. Love his parents. So glad there's going to be another book. I LOVE this comment; I referenced it up there in one of my answers lol He's a walking contradiction, I mean really... the best unselfish thing Sarah can do right now is take a step back, move in with some other family member, let him see his kids while he works through his emotions but because he's weak and she's insecure she won't let go and he won't push her away to get clarity, it's an unhealthy relationship.

Like they need time apart but again, go back to when Oakley was in the hospital and even the therapist was like maybe you guys need to take time apart, Sarah was the first one to blurt out "No! we're staying together," back then you didn't know why, but hindsight... I'm sure you're all like... she showed Oakley the test (sneaky) she constantly spoke bad about Norine (really? No words), and then when the DOCTOR was like take time apart she's all like no... well I wonder why. Removed from the fog that is Sarah, Pat is getting little kicks, the grandparents, though they tried to help, they're up to their eyebrows in guilt that they didn't do enough. Pat is like a man that just throws the word 'love' around when he thinks others think it's the right thing to say. Weak.
