Thanks for posting this even with all the holiday stuff going on. Glad your headache is better . Your character Kat gives so many hope. Everyone deserves love. You can’t help they way your born .
Poor Kat and her relationship with her mother 😭. So glad Bones shows her how worthly of love she is . How hard it must be for him to keep his peace about her mom. Bones deserves a sainthood for not truely ripping into Justine after all she has done. Sure he says his bit but man… to see the woman you love almost mentally destroyed by the one that is to show her unequivocal love and understanding .To be an outcast in the human and vampire world and to not have the one safe haven of love and understanding by your own family or even you own mind (being so mentally abused by the hatrid your mother has for a species you can’t help but be apart of ) is so heart breaking. To have that same person destroy their own childs happinesses for shame .Glad Bones found Kat and shows her how to love herself. Kudos Bones . Thank you for telling his side story as well. We can really see how he connects to Kat and cares for Kat beyond his actions and words but with his mental state and true feelings.
IOANNA says
Thank you so much ,words will be never enough to thank you for Bones and Cat and now this stories from his side
ginna wilcoxen says
I agree but there are many Cats out there. I know I tried everything to gain my mother’s love and approval. It never worked and in many ways it still hurts. Love Bones and his caring for Cat
Rayanne says
Nossa …como eu esperei por esse capítulo, precisamos mais de cat e bones.
Dasha says
Yes!!! More!
Roseanne Lobbezoo says
Wow! I loved Bones point of view! It would be wonderful if you expanded this to a full length novel and published it. I guarantee it would be a best seller! Thank you for giving me the pleasure of reading a great story. (Now I’m going to go back and reread the original Halfway to the Grave. In fact, now I’m going to reread the whole series!) Thank you again!
Denise E Koontz says
Thanks again for another great chapter Jeaniene and I think this is the best so far. Do you know if you might ever come here to Pittsburgh? Where I live is just 5 minutes away from Barnes & Nobles in Robinson at Settler’s Ridge. I would be so geeked to meet you and have you sign my book reader. lol I have all your books on it! With having my adult disabled son, I cannot travel to see you, but this would be awesome experience, to meet my favorite author!!!

For many, Cat and Bones may be 12 years “old.” But I only “met” them about 5 years ago. And I love them dearly! Thanks for this blog. I just found out about it today, in an Urban Fantasy Facebook group. I’ve devoured all blog posts in an hour or so. (And I’m just learning about Ian and Veritas— got their first book today!) Cheers, from New Orleans, La. 🙂
Susan Potter says
Thank you very much for offering the first Night Rebel book for $1.99! When I tried to buy it on Amazon, however, the first thing I saw was “Not available in Canada”. *sigh* This happens sometimes with books I want to purchase. Not giving up though! I will find a way. 😁
Donna Wood says
Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us! It’s absolutely brilliant and can’t wait to get the next chapter.
Heather says
So so so so so SOOOOOO good. I look forward to these chapters every week. I’m gonna be so sad when it ends. I think you should push your editor to make this into a book, it would be a hit for sure!
MaggieD says
Awesome chapter and it reminded me of why I despised Cat’s mum so much throughout the books. And no, I don’t think she had any saving graces. Even after becoming a vampire she was still awful. 😋
Gabriela says
Thank you!
Leeann says
Thank you!!
Can’t wait for the next chapter!

Ok Jeaniene, I know you said this is not a new book….. but I need more. Cat and Bones are my favorite characters! Please write chapter 8. I need something to hold me over until the new Ian book comes out. Please can I have some more……
Laura says
Thanks again! I can’t wait to see how Bones feels when she is actually around other vampires. This is really good. Can’t wait to read more.
Johanna says
I have only been reading these for 2 months and I am already obsessed. Thank you for the wonderful strength you’re showing us love can have and build. Can’t wait to read more here and get my hands on more Ian and Veritas.

Love the back and forth with these two so much! I really prefer Bone’s POV.
Annie Figi says
I really like Bone’s take on Cat’s mom. This is so telling.
Catherine Dugan says
What a great chapter! Reading the story from Bones’ perspective has me wanting to read the whole series, again.
Lisa says
It’s so awesome to be hearing Bones thoughts of her mother. You did SO awesome with this chapter (well, you did awesome with all the chapters!). Thank you so much for sharing your books with us!
Melissa Cesark says
This is making me want to re- read the series … again. I love seeing Bones’ perspective. He thinks pretty much exactly how I thought he would, although I didn’t quite realize he felt so strongly for her so soon.
Chrystal Mathis says
“All I need are names. Never too late for bullies to pay for their crimes.”
I laughed so hard at that because I agree with that statement wholeheartedly. A… bit more than anyone should agree with that if I’m being honest.
Anyway, much appreciated reading this from his perspective. You have a wonderful way of painting such a scary, adventurous, lovely, hopeful, and sometimes downright depressing world. (Seriously, just got done reading At Graves End. I will not be afraid to admit that I cried for ten minutes after chapters 20 & 21. Then cursed you a little bit for making me care so damn much about two people that didn’t actually exist.) You are an exceptional Author. I can’t wait to read the rest of the books.
