<div style="text-align: center;">
I have two rules in life:<br />
1. No relationships, falling in love or attachments.<br />
2. No sleeping with clients of my interior design firm.<br />
<br />
Since the last guy turned out to be married, they’ve been easy to follow.<br />
<br />
Until him.<br />
<br />
Callum Huxley is a ridiculously sexy Brit, and the connection we have the moment our eyes lock scares the ever-loving hell out of me. Thank God I came to my senses before going back to his hotel where I would’ve ended up naked, panting, and unable to forget him.<br />
<br />
Thinking I walked away from that night unscathed was stupid. Sure enough, at the biggest meeting of my career waits the CEO of Dovetail Enterprises—him. It might be the most embarrassing moment of my professional life. And breaking my no-client rule might just be the hottest moment of my personal life.<br />
<br />
Learning to trust has never felt so good, but falling has never hurt so bad.</div>

A recent poll of her readers described her as <i>insightful, generous, articulate,</i> and <i>spunky</i>. Originally a social worker, Rachel creates broken yet redeeming characters. She’s been known to turn up the angst like cranking up the heat in the dead of winter.
<br />
<br />
A devout coffee drinker and doughnut eater, Rachel spends way too many hours in local coffee shops, downing the aforementioned goodies while she plots her ideas. Her tales may all come with a side of angst and naughtiness, but end as lusciously as her treats.
<br />
<br />
As a side note, Blaufeld, also a long-time blogger and an advocate of woman-run anything, is fearless about sharing her opinion. She captured the ears of stay-at-home and working moms on her blog, <a href="http://backngroovemom.com/" target="_blank"><i>BacknGrooveMom</i></a>, chronicling her adventures in parenting tweens and running a business, often at the same time. To her, work/life/family balance is an urban legend, but she does her best.
<br />
<br />
Rachel has also blogged for <i>The Huffington Post</i> and <i>Modern Mom</i>. Most recently, her insights can be found in <i>USA TODAY</i>, where she shares conversations at “In Bed with a Romance Author” and reading recommendations over at “Happy Ever After.”
<br />
<br />
Rachel lives around the corner from her childhood home in Pennsylvania with her family and two beagles. Her obsessions include running, coffee, basketball, icing-filled doughnuts, antiheroes, and mighty fine epilogues.
<br />
<br />
When she isn’t writing, she can be found courtside, tweeting about hoops as her son plays, or walking around the house wearing earplugs while her other son, the drummer, bangs away.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
“Good evening,” he says, as casually as if he saw me last week instead of six months ago.<br /><br />“Christopher,” I say, in case he hasn’t noticed. A table like this is reserved for VIPs or very special guests. Or ones with deep pockets. “This is the chef’s table. We’re sitting at the chef’s table in Koi.”<br /><br />“Is that good? I thought they just ran out of regular tables.”<br /><br />“Did you just make a joke. Oh my God. You did.”<br /><br />The chef chooses that moment to introduce himself, a rather effusive man with a comforting smile and a thick Japanese accent. He says he’ll forgive that we drink champagne as long as we try the sake pairing he sends with every course. And he personally serves the amuse bouche, a tuna sashimi lollie on a fennel cilantro salad with ponzu dressing that makes me moan despite myself.<br /><br />“Dear God,” I say when we’re alone again, my eyes still closed with the wonder of that single bite. There’s salt and citrus, and basically this is what heaven tastes like. “Did you spend all two billion dollars to get this table? Because it’s worth it.”<br /><br />When I open my eyes Christopher is watching me, a strange expression on his face. He hasn’t touched the plate in front of him. He seems more interested in the way that I dip my finger in the ponzu dressing and lime foam to savor the last drops. I’m not sure that love is on the table, but if the glitter in his eyes is anything to go by, sex is definitely an option.<br /><br />“One billion,” he says, almost absently.<br /><br />I blink. “What?”<br /><br />“Only one billion is mine. The other half belongs to Sutton.”<br /><br />It’s like a bucket of cold water dumped over my head. “Why did you bring me here?”<br /><br />One dark eyebrow rises. “You’re the one who insisted we meet in person.”<br /><br />“And you’re the one who brought me here.”<br /><br />The long pause that follows isn’t filled with hearts and roses. He does not secretly love me, and I feel like a fool for even considering the possibility. Because he took me out to dinner? It’s really a good thing I don’t date much, because I’m terrible at it.<br /><br />“I invested in the restaurant,” he says finally. “It helps to have your take.”<br /><br />“Because I have such a refined palate?”<br /><br />“Because you were born rich,” he says, his voice flat. “You know what rich people like.”<br /><br />It takes my breath away, and I’m left staring at him with the most incredible taste on my tongue. That’s all I am to him? A rich girl with nothing better to do with my time than give him advice on his new restaurant? Meanwhile I was gullible enough to think he actually wanted to spend time with me. It isn’t right. It isn’t fair, but then Christopher Bardot has never played fair.</div>

Gabby</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Looking back, I should have seen the signs. Perhaps I did, but I subconsciously chose to ignore them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
From the time I was ten, when I first met Dylan, I knew he was my forever guy. Back then, I couldn’t put words to what I was feeling, but, as the years progressed, I came to recognize it for what it was—soul-deep love. The kind only very few people ever get to experience. Dylan was more than just my best friend, my childhood sweetheart, my lover.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He was my soulmate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were carved from the same whole—destined to be together forever.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until he changed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I believed I was no longer good enough.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until he shattered me so completely, it felt like I ceased to exist.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I’d never experienced such heart-crushing pain.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until he leveled me a second time, and I truly wanted to die.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I had to stay strong because I wasn’t alone in this cruel twist of fate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I look to the sky, pleading with the stars, begging someone to tell me what I should do because I don’t know how to deal with this. I don’t know how to cope when my forever has changed, and I can’t help wondering if I had seen the signs earlier, if I’d pushed him, would it have been enough to save us?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or had fate already decided to alter our forever?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Jessa lives in a very non-descript, unassuming town filled
with the best kind of people. Most days, she can be found in the stands of
various soccer fields, cheering her on Youngest, or discussing books with her
Oldest (who is an English Honors student).<br />
<br />
At night, if she’s not up burning the midnight oil, Jessa
enjoys snuggling up to her hubby and watching his latest pick for a cheesy
romance movie. He always chooses the best ones. (after he cooks supper, of
course)</div>

What do you do when your planet runs out of women? Send for takeout, of
course.<br />
<br />
Tarjen never expected to go to Earth again. The first time, he was there to
protect Crown Prince Joran as he claimed his mate and returned her to Pyros.
This time, Tarjen is on his way to claim a mate of his own.<br />
<br />
He’s studied human courtship behaviour, memorized his match’s file from the
Star-Crossed Dating database, and prepared himself for the moment he’ll meet
his mate. He’s planned everything perfectly so that nothing can go wrong. Not
like the last time they were here...<br />
<br />
This book contains a single mother who doesn’t believe in happy endings, and a
royal bodyguard who does everything by the book – until the universe blows up
the book, his plans, and part of a city block.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Still winded by her fall, her senses scrambled, Aria forced herself back to her feet. Fear tried to take hold, but she pushed it back and made herself focus on the only thing that mattered. Melody. Her baby was a warm, comforting weight against her chest.<br />
<br />
“You okay, little one?” She ran her hands over every inch of her child, soothing her as she checked for injuries. By the time she was done, Melody was quieter, and Aria breathed a sigh of relief. “No owies or booboos. Thank heavens.”<br />
<br />
She reached out one hand and started shuffling in a cautious circle, searching for a wall to use as a guide. She wandered for what felt like an eternity in the darkness, her nerves screaming, but finally her hand brushed against something solid.<br />
<br />
“Thank god.” She leaned her back against the wall and gave herself a moment. She was running on instinct and adrenaline. She needed to calm down and start thinking clearly. She took a few cleansing breaths, counting out the seconds of each exhalation. Just as she started feeling more centered, she heard something in the darkness, and fear turned her blood to ice water in a heartbeat. Who was out there? What was out there in the dark?<br />
<br />
“Hello?”<br />
<br />
“Aria? Are you unhurt?” A stranger’s voice called out.<br />
<br />
“Who are you? Where are you? I can’t see anything.”<br />
<br />
A hand touched her shoulder and a brilliant blue spark arced through the air, chasing away the dark for a moment. Once she saw the spark, she knew exactly who was with her. Her Pyrosian match had tracked her down somehow, and now both of them would have to face the consequences. <i>I shouldn’t have come today. He’s going to be so disappointed.</i></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Susan lives out on the Canadian west coast surrounded by open water, dear
family, and good friends. She’s jumped out of perfectly good airplanes on
purpose and accidentally swum with sharks on the Great Barrier Reef.
She’s worked for local law enforcement, been a freelance wordsmith and bakes
what she claims are the world’s best double-chocolate & caramel brownies.
She’s passionately in love with the written word (and a few of her more hunky
creations.) Writing is her joy, her escape from reality and the only way she
knows of to quiet the nagging harridan of a muse the universe assigned to her.</div>

Trust me. I know. The only reason I decided to renovate my family’s ice-cream store was to serve up a sundae full of revenge for my a-hole ex who opened an ice-cream store right next to mine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was supposed to be simple.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Renovate. Reopen. Put his peachy butt out of business.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Until he decided to get under my skin—and broke my toe.</div>

Now, I’m stuck with Chase in my store every day, helping me renovate. But he’s also in my head, and I’m spending a little too much time up against his abs.</div>

Not that it’s the worst place to be.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Noble Grayson loves to drown women in pleasure…but he loves his freedom more. When an old high school friend asks him to be the best man at his wedding, Noble jumps at the chance to spend a wild weekend in Sin City. But after a night of ecstasy with a beautiful stranger, Noble soon learns that what happens in Vegas doesn’t always stay in Vegas.
<br />
<br />
Before Ivy Addison can leave scandal behind and settle down in tiny Haven, Texas she first has to survive her sister’s wedding. But when the sexy cowboy across the hall rescues her from frustration—in more ways than one—Ivy throws caution to the wind and spends one night of spine-bending splendor that changes her life…forever.
<br />
<br />
Once Noble returns to Haven, his memories of the green-eyed vixen extinguish all interest in other females. He’s still reeling when a cryptic phone call leads him to the new bakery in town—where he gets the surprise of his life. Will he figure out that he needs Ivy more than he needs bachelorhood before she puts the fire out between them for good?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The people we love are thieves.<br />
They steal our hearts. They steal our breath.<br />
They steal our sanity.<br />
And we let them.<br />
Over and over and over again.<br />
<br />
They say you never forget your first time.<br />
Mine was with a homeless musician who effed my brains out under a
bridge.<br />
<br />
He was my first love. And fourteen years later, I still can’t get him out of my
head.<br />
<br />
He broke all my rules.<br />
He also broke my heart.<br />
<br />
I watched him climb to stardom, cheering him on from afar.<br />
But I was never a fan; just a girl in love.<br />
<br />
Like a tornado, he spiraled, leaving a path of destruction in his wake.<br />
<br />
But love conquers all, right? It has to. Because here I stand, ravaged and
ruined, needing it to be true.<br />
<br />
You can’t go back, but I want to. Back to the bridge. Back to when he sang only
for me. Before he was famous. Before he shattered my heart.<br />
<br />
I thought I knew everything about him.<br />
But I could not have been more wrong.<br />
<br />
He promised me every tomorrow. And here I am, waiting.<br />
And hoping.<br />
Again.</div>

I have a passion for the bad boys, those covered in tattoos, sexy smirks, ripped jeans, fast cars, motorcycles and of course, the sweet girls that try to tame them and win their hearts. My debut series, Ashes & Embers, follows the lives of rock band members as they find, and sometimes lose, the loves of their lives.<br />
<br />
Born and raised a Jersey girl, I now reside in beautiful New Hampshire with my husband and our multitude of furry pets and spend most of my time writing, reading, and vacuuming.</div>

When Nate Davidson learns there’s a bounty on Wolf Stone’s head, he shoves aside the hurt and bitterness of the past and volunteers to serve on his protective detail. Trouble is, their well-respected commander doesn’t want any help.
<br />
<br />
Their first angry kiss reignites a passion that time has not diminished, and the stunning addition of the beautifully submissive Kayla Fagan to their relationship changes their dynamic in sexy ways they never could have imagined.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But as a hitman closes in, Kayla and Nate want more from Wolf. They want him to share his deepest secrets…and his love. Wolf’s wounds run deep, and love is the one thing he’s incapable of offering.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="border: 9px groove #800000; height: 400px; overflow: auto; width: 97%;">
Kayla Fagan unfolded her legs. For a second, her actions reminded Stone of a butterfly unfurling its wings.<br />
<br />
He took a seat in the oversize leather chair. She and Nate Davidson had left the wingback chair vacant for him. “You needed to talk?”<br />
<br />
“Yeah. About that…” She stood in a lithe movement that captivated him, made him aware of her femininity.<br />
<br />
Men and women were built different, and he was a connoisseur of both. He pressed his palms together and waited.<br />
<br />
“I want to play.”<br />
<br />
“Go on.”<br />
<br />
She paced. Then, with her back to a wall, she admitted, “I’m intrigued.”<br />
<br />
Her soft-spoken admission aroused him.<br />
<br />
“I just…don’t want anything extreme.”<br />
<br />
“You want to stay in control while you’re out of control?”<br />
<br />
She nodded.<br />
<br />
“You’ll have a safe word. And a slow word. We can go at your pace.”<br />
<br />
“Your safe word will stop any activity,” Davidson said. “You can always say no. Your Dom, Stone, will honor that. You get to set boundaries and negotiate terms. Your pleasure is our ultimate goal.<br />
<br />
Watching the two of them was entertaining as hell to Stone.<br />
<br />
“My pleasure is the only thing that matters?” Clearly, she was confused, and a little intrigued, if the glint in her green eyes was anything to judge by.<br />
<br />
“Make no mistake,” Davidson continued, “if you have any desire to submit or learn about submission, Stone is the Dom you want.”<br />
<br />
“Davidson’s right.” Stone leaned forward. “We’ll go slow. I’ll check in with you a lot. By watching you, I’ll know when you’re at your limit, even if you don’t realize it. You’ll never be taken anywhere you don’t want to go, or any place I deem unsafe.”<br />
<br />
“I…”<br />
<br />
He couldn’t help himself.<br />
<br />
Desire for this woman with her intense green eyes and untamed auburn hair drove him to distraction.<br />
<br />
Standing, he crossed to Fagan and closed his hands around her shoulders. He helped her up until she stood facing him, her head tipped back to meet his gaze.<br />
<br />
Then he captured her head and kissed her long, hard, deep. Nothing punishing, nothing dominant, just gentle reassurance.<br />
<br />
She tasted of wine, spicy and rich. And then, moments later…of surrender.<br />
<br />
His cock pressed against his zipper, insistently, demandingly. Did she recognize her power?<br />
<br />
Fagan swayed toward him, taking the role of the aggressor. Her tongue plunged deep into his mouth. And he was suddenly commiserating with how desperate Davidson had been to orgasm.<br />
<br />
Eventually, she pulled away. “Oh. Hmm. Well. Wow.”<br />
<br />
“Just for the record,” he said, holding her close, one hand just above her rear, the other between her shoulder blades, “I want to have sex with you. Whether or not that happens is completely your call.”</div>

The war has not made much of difference in Alix’s life. Her father has seen to it that she grows up unaware, unworried, but safe in her tiny village under the cliffs of the Vercors. All around her he has built a fortress whose walls are impregnable—until the 27th of April, 1944. That day he makes a stupid mistake up on the cliff, and the walls of the Fortress start crashing down. Reality breaks into Alix’s life with unrelenting violence, unforeseen possibilities. From now on, every decision she makes will mean life or death.</div>

“Honey, if anybody’s looking for it up here, it means you’re already dead. So it won’t matter to you. Listen now. People will call you on the other phone, the one downstairs, and give you coded messages. As a rule it will be about movements in our direction, Germans, Militia, or even new recruits for our camps. Remember, the security of Mortval depends on you. Here is a list of codes. You must memorize all of them and get rid of the list.”</div>

<br />
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: x-large;"><i>Author Interview</i></span><br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e06666;">I am pleased to welcome Madeline Romeyer Dherbey to my little corner of cyberspace!</span></i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Madeline, where
did you find the idea for your book?</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First of all, the
Vercors Mountains. Breathtakingly beautiful, dangerous, a natural playground
for all extreme sport lovers. Rock climbing, canyoning, spelunking, skiing,
it’s all there. But for me, it’s home. It’s where my ancestors have lived and
are buried, under those same cliffs.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then, the history. The
Vercors is a dream of freedom, a heroic battle, a military disaster, but also redemptive
last stand. Many military and
history books have been written on the subject, but no fiction accounts, and in
fact, I was frustrated by the dryness of the accounts which I felt did not
reflect the human dimension of that battle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Finally, my own family history. It starts with the
story of my own Grandfather falling off that cliff, and then, there my three uncles, who were condemned to death for collaborating with
the Vichy government and betraying C2, a Resistance camp, to the Nazis. Their
sentences were later commuted to forced labor, but the national disgrace
verdict stood, and they had to leave the area to avoid being murdered. Despite
the death threats, my father— who had fought with honor during the war—decided
to stay. The legacy was hard to overcome in a community mauled by four years of
occupation and violence, and seventy years later, my last name remains
associated with the destruction of the Maquis of Malleval.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are also small things, like a Sten machine gun I
found in the mud of a summer creek, with this inscription, <i>Pour ma Suzon Cherie, June 12, 1944</i>; or the story of a fifteen-year
old boy, a resistant fighter whose name is forgotten, who was tortured and
murdered by the Nazis in the summer of 1944.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And finally, Russel Crowe, naturally.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Do
you hide any secrets in your book?</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I’m not sure what you mean… Are there notions in it
too personal to own? If yes, there are many, but they’re not secret. Nothing I
have ever committed in my prior lives could possibly shame me now. I would own
up to it, and dare anyone to throw the first stone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">What’s
the strangest thing you’ve ever to research on line for your book?</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Things like Nazi decorations or weapons,
uniforms, the Lebensborn, and basically anything having to do with a violent,
murderous ideology. The fact that I often did it on my planning time at my
school, or on the school-issued computer was made me nervous, too. I was always
afraid someone from security was going to ask me upstairs to question me about
these searches. It was extremely uncomfortable having to rationalize ideas from
a Nazi point of view, which I had to do in order to make Rieder’s thought
process, or the Militia Chief’s racist outlook credible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Do
you set a plot or prefer going wherever an idea takes you?</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both, really. I think they call that
plotting or pantsing? I plot first by walking around and making little
comic-like boxes which I fill with ideas. I make lists, flow-charts—I’m a
teacher after all. But sometimes I get inspired out of nowhere, like my
character objects and does his own thing. The first time it happened, I was
amazed. It felt like magic. The legendary muse, as my agent once said. I
thought he was out of his mind. Sure, the muse visits once in a while, but it’s
mostly hard work. Shock Top helps a lot, too, one and a
half, no more, and Finnish metal music. My favorite bands are Ghost Brigade,
Insomnium, Wolfheart, and Swallow The sun. It’s as vast and brilliant as a
Beethoven Symphony, thunderous but melodic, the perfect emotional outlet. And
then, frozen expanses, Nordic lakes, white forests, it’s land’s end, after all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">What
are your top three favorite books of all time?</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. Under the Northern star, a trilogy by
Finnish author Väinö
Linna, the saga of a poor Finnish family across three generations. He created
my all-time favorite hero, Akseli Koskela, who personifies all the virtues I
respect in a man, courage, persistence, humility, loyalty, honesty, generosity,
even though he’s just a man, subject to emotional fragility we can all identify
with.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. The Little Prince, by Antoine De Saint Expupery. Too beautiful for words.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. The Hunchback of Notre Dame, by Victor Hugo—scary, dark, and tragic. Not
anything you can imagine if you only know the Disney version.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">What
writing advice do you have for other aspiring authors?</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Discard any idea that worms itself into
the narrative because it might help sell the book. No gratuitous sex, no
gratuitous violence, no easy, voyeuristic scene that is devoid of purpose. If
you sacrifice pleasure and dignity for commercial gain, you will get neither.</div>
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e06666;">Thank you Madeline! It was a pleasure getting to know you and a little more about your book!</span></i><br />

At First, Daisy Ignores Her Cat's Dating Advice.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Daisy will turn 40 in
eleven months and has never married. Her family figures Daisy is a loser
because she is still in college trying to avoid paying off her student loans
which have amassed over 22 years of a miseducation. And all Daisy has is a cat
to keep her company. To make the crises worse, her cat begins talking to Daisy,
when she is sober! The mess of Daisy's life is even kookier because the cat is
cursing and smoking now and drinking more alcoholic beverages. Mm, there must
be a connection to all this flowing alcohol, which may explain the bubbly in
Daisy's brain. Her sisters and mother insist on setting Daisy up on six blind
dates and all the men are named after liquor.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: x-large;"><i>Excerpt</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why would she listen to dating tips from a fixed kitty? In
other words, Shakespeare was a virgin. The status of his privates was probably
the reason the cat was an overweight, alcoholic, chain-smoker. “I don’t want to
seem thirsty,” she said.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He raised a kitty eyebrow.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“In dating lingo thirsty means that I am desperate for a
boyfriend or you know, thirsty for…”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“For a one-night lay.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“Well that but more like for a meaningful relationship. And
then there’s an online profile with a picture which needs to be posted on
dating websites, and you know that I am not photogenic.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“Your butt photographs very well,” the cat said. “Display
that ass on the internet and your email account will explode with offers from
all kinds of blokes.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“Nor do I care to brag about myself,” she said.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“Well, if you don’t brag then who will?”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“Nor do I want to attract men who are only interested in one
thing.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” The cat plopped
in front of the refrigerator, his big rump sticking up, blocking the door and
waiting for lunch. He was stoned and drunk, having licked a bit of wine and
sniffed catnip.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Daisy felt silly holding a newspaper over his head to
smack the demon out of him. Shakespeare was sucking his paw, as usual when
relaxing. He was the same old smelly cat, except for his mastering the English
language and spouting forth lines from his namesake, William Shakespeare.</div>

<em>Six men with no memories of the past</em>
<br />
<br />
<em>One leader with no hope for the future</em>
<br />
<br />
<em>A man without a past</em>
<br />
<br />
Jax woke up in a lab, his memories erased, and his mind reprogrammed to serve a mad woman’s will. After being liberated from his prison, he pledged himself to the only thing he truly knows—his team. Six men who lost everything they were. They must make certain no one else gets their hands on the drugs that stole their lives, all while hiding from every intelligence organization on the planet. The trail has led him to an unforgiving mountainside and a beautiful wilderness expert who may be his only hope of finding the truth.
<br />
<br />
<em>A woman with a bright future</em>
<br />
<br />
River Lee knows her way around the Colorado wilderness. She’s finally found a home in a place called Bliss after years lost in darkness. The nature guide prefers to show her clients the beauty found in the land, but she also knows the secrets the mountains hold. When she meets Jax, something about the troubled man calls to her. She agrees to lead him to the site of an abandoned government facility hidden deep in the forest. She never dreamed she was stepping into the middle of a battlefield.
<br />
<br />
<em>A love that could heal a broken soul</em>
<br />
<br />
Spending time with River, Jax discovers a peace he’s never known. Their passion unlocks a side of himself he didn’t even know he was missing. When an old enemy makes his first move, Jax and River find themselves fighting for their lives. But when his past is revealed, will River be caught in the crosshairs of a global conspiracy?</div>

When it comes to love and happily ever after, Leo Stone is a disbeliever. Having been left at the altar by the one woman he thought he'd spend the rest of his life with, he's vowed to keep his heart to himself and enjoy the one thing he knows won't affect his emotions . . . hot, dirty sex. Except, what's a guy to do when a gorgeous woman asks him to be her stand-in boyfriend for two weeks—with benefits? Sign him up, please!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A drunken night one year ago, Peyton Bishop used Leo Stone's name and photograph to convince her overprotective parents that she was safe living in New York City—in part thanks to a boyfriend she adored. Except Leo, the hot guy she's had a secret crush on since college, has no idea he's been cast in the role of her lover. With her cousin's wedding coming up, and her parent's expecting to meet this mysterious boyfriend, Peyton is forced to come clean and ask Leo a huge favor.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Leo agrees to be her stand-in boyfriend, but what's a pretend couple to do when their fake feelings start to become oh-so-real?</div>

After getting dumped, the last thing Trevor Hamilton wants is to take on his advisor’s niece as a new roommate. For starters she’s hot. Like sexy librarian hot. But he needs his advisor’s recommendation for a job after he graduates, so he’s going to keep his dirty little fantasies to himself… and stay far away from his sexy little roomie.
<br />
<br />
Natalie Washington is done with men. After her last dating disaster, she can’t afford to get derailed again. So when her aunt claims to have found her the perfect roommate, she’s willing to give it a shot. He’s one of her aunt’s best students, so how distracting could he be?
<br />
<br />
Then Trevor opens the door to their apartment, muscled, shirtless, tattooed and so… arrogant. How can one guy be such a dick? He’s bossy, and annoying...and scorching hot. Too bad he knows it.
<br />
<br />
As the battle lines get drawn, they’re each determined to ignore, or annoy, the other. Who will end up on top?</div>

NYT & USA Today bestselling author <i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">M. Malone</span></i> lives in the Washington, DC metro area with her husband and their two sons. She holds a master’s degree in Business from a prestigious college that would no doubt be scandalized by how she’s using her expensive education.
Independently published, she has sold more than 1/2 million ebooks in her two series, The Alexanders and Blue-Collar Billionaires. Since starting her indie journey in 2011 with the runaway bestselling novella “Teasing Trent,” her work has appeared on the New York Times and USA Today bestseller lists more than a dozen times.
<br /><br />
She’s now a full-time writer and spends 99.8% of her time in her pajamas.

USA Today bestselling author <i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Nana Malone</span></i>‘s love of all things romance and adventure started with a tattered romantic suspense novel she “borrowed” from her cousin.
<br />
<br />
It was a sultry summer afternoon in Ghana, and Nana was a precocious thirteen. She’s been in love with kick-butt heroines ever since. With her overactive imagination constantly channeling her inner Buffy, it was only a matter a time before she started creating her own characters.
While she waits for her chance at a job as a ninja assassin, Nana works out her drama, passion and sass with fictional characters every bit as brazen and kick-butt as she thinks she is.</div>

The biggest story of her life is the one he wants to hide.
<br />
<br />
I’m homeless by choice.<br />
I have no intention of returning to my former life after what I’ve done.<br />
This—living among the filth and discarded remnants of others—is what I deserve.<br />
As atonement for my sins, I give back; I help those who cannot help themselves. But it’s always under the guise of anonymity.<br />
Newspaper headlines throughout the city are clamoring to discover my identity. Including the beautiful woman who manages to see through my “armor.”<br />
She has the capability to put my entire life at risk.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Salvation, Pennsylvania. The commune located in the small town was advertised as a modern Utopia: a place to live, share, and learn with other like-minded young people. Cate Pendleton’s sister was one of them. Now she’s dead—and Cate won’t rest until she finds out who killed her. Stonewalled at every turn, she approaches a DC Fixer for help and ends up with Damon Knox, a mysterious man with a secretive past. But Cate soon discovers that she not only needs Damon, she wants him, which isn’t good—for the attraction brewing between them will only lead to complications that can turn into danger . . .
<br />
<br />
Damon has tried to erase the hellish memories and the evil that happened in Salvation ever since he left a long time ago. Still, he can’t turn his back on Cate. As Damon works with Cate to uncover her sister’s killer, he finds himself drawn to her more and more. But how will she feel about him when she learns about his connection to the place?
<br />
<br />
Joining forces to uncover the truth, they must stay one step ahead of a cunning killer who’s bent on not being exposed.</div>

<span style="color: #ffd966; font-size: x-large;"><i>Excerpt</i></span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
She cleared her throat. “Shauna.”<br />
<br />
They could circle back to food because she had his attention now. He refused to joke about this topic. “Your sister.”<br />
<br />
“She’s three years older.”<br />
<br />
He noticed she didn’t use the past tense. Shauna died ten years ago and Cate still saw her as an “is.” For Damon, that meant treading carefully. “And you are…?”<br />
<br />
“Twenty-nine.”<br />
<br />
He knew that answer before she said but thought keeping her to facts might help her emotionally wade through the next part. He’d helped Wren with other cases and this piece – dealing with the grief – never got easier. Damon had a load of grief and guilt of his own piled on top of hers, so he got it.<br />
<br />
He nodded to her. “Go ahead.”<br />
<br />
“The questions you ask don’t seem that pertinent.”<br />
<br />
“I’m going to be honest with you.” He started to lean forward when the waiter came by and dropped off their food. The smell of grilled hamburger filled his senses as he reached for his folded napkin and threw it across his lap.<br />
<br />
She didn’t move. “That would be a good way to start.”<br />
<br />
“Wren already gave me a file he had on you. The man is an expert at collecting information and then making Garrett put it together in a nice big, easy-to-understand breakdown of what happened and when.”<br />
<br />
For a few seconds she sat there, quiet, as her gaze moved over his face, studying him. “Then why are we here doing the get-to-know-you thing?”<br />
<br />
“First, I’m hungry. That happens a lot. The need to eat thing. So, you’ll need to get used to it.” He popped a french fry in his mouth.<br />
<br />
“You aren’t…I mean, you look…”<br />
<br />
<i>Interesting</i>. “I’m pretty excited to hear how you finish that sentence.”<br />
<br />
She waved a hand in front of her. “You’re fit.”<br />
<br />
“Oh, really?”<br />
<br />
“Don’t get excited. That was an objectively factual statement.”<br />
<br />
“Objectively factual?” He didn’t even know what that meant. If she found him sexy she should absolutely say so because <i>damn</i> was that a mutual feeling.<br />
<br />
“You know what I mean.”<br />
<br />
Rather than risk saying the wrong thing and wearing her salad, he switched back to the food. That seemed like a safe topic. “I have low blood sugar and get cranky when I don’t eat.”<br />
<br />
“So, you eat burgers all the time.”<br />
<br />
“I like pleasure.”<br />
<br />
She bit her top lip as if she were fighting off a smile. “You sound like you’re five.”<br />
<br />
“And protein.” All this talk about food and seeing the burger <i>right there</i>, all he wanted to do was pick it up and take a bite, but he waited. “My point is that this – here, right now, us eating together – is about getting to know each other.”<br />
<br />
That buried smile disappeared. “Why do we need to?”<br />
<br />
“<i>Why</i>?” Good lord, she was serious. He could tell from the confused expression. Nothing about her tone or demeanor telegraphed amusement or suggested she was joking.<br />
<br />
“It’s a job. You go in and do it.” She shrugged. “I’d rather spend our time this afternoon with you telling me your big plan so that we can figure out what we do next.”<br />
<br />
They appeared to have very different views on who was going to be in charge of this operation. He was very clear, but she seemed to be confused. “Let me understand this. You think <i>we</i> need to agree on strategy?”<br />
<br />
“Of course.”<br />
<br />
“That’s not how this works.” Not in his world. Not ever. When he took on a job he ran it alone, not by committee.<br />
<br />
She shoved her plate to the side and leaned on her elbows, inching closer to him across the top of the two-seat table. “Do you understand what’s at stake here?”<br />
<br />
“Likely a silent promise you made to your sister that you would make sure her killer didn’t go free.” It was a guess but an educated one. He’d dealt with grieving family members before. He’d seen both sides of the battle lines. So, when her eyes widened he knew he’d scored. “And your peace of mind.”<br />
<br />
She glanced down at her salad then at the two men at the table next to them who were locked in an argument about football season tickets. When she finally looked back at him again some of the stress around her eyes had disappeared. “You get it.”<br />
<br />
“I know guilt when I see it.”</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Elizabeth Darcy has her eye on the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before her marriage, she saw herself making the best possible choice. Her husband saved her family from ruin. All he asked in return was her hand. Secure in his good opinion, Elizabeth married him. Only with hindsight and his cryptic warnings that passion is not immutable does Elizabeth question her decision. Her solution? Give him a son as soon as possible. Once his lust for her has been slaked, this service she has rendered him will ensure her value.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The newlyweds are summoned to Rosings Park almost the moment they are married. Though the estate can boast of beautiful grounds, Elizabeth and Darcy arrive to find devastation. A flood has swept away Lady Catherine’s last hopes of hiding debt and years of mismanagement. She expects Darcy to shoulder the recovery efforts.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The effort to save Rosings strains the already tense relationship between Elizabeth and her husband. To make matters worse, her presence is met with disdain and disinterest from the family. As the days in the besieged estate drag on, Elizabeth slowly untangles the histories and secrets of her new relations.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Like Elizabeth’s marriage, the crisis at Rosings is the culmination of past events. Disaster need not be the result of only bad choices; good principles have led them astray as well. As for Elizabeth, she barely knows her husband, and loving him might be impossible. Yet, she is determined to save all that she can—her marriage and the estate—and somehow, create the future she longs for.</div>

<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-size: x-large;"><i>Author Interview</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">Hi and welcome Ann to my little corner of the web and taking part in this little interview with me.</span></i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">Inquiring minds are dying to know, which book inspired you to begin writing?</span></i><br />
<br />
Today? “<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">Pride and Prejudice</span></i>.”<br />
<br />
In general? Chronologically, my memories of writing come before my memories of favorite books. It’s just a thing I’ve always done.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">How did you discover Jane Austen?</span></i><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
When I was in college, I met a girl who read “Pride and Prejudice” her
senior year of high school. She embarked on a campaign to relentlessly badger
me into reading it. At the time, I was studying cultural anthropology and
dismissed her on the basis of ~I’m not interested in romance novels. I only
like social commentary.~ (Obviously, I did not know the first thing about Jane
Austen, and she who did was, shall we say, <i>undeterred</i>.
And also, the devaluation of female-oriented genres is a whole other issue to
unpack that we won’t get to today.) This went on for….a while. Had you asked me
at the time, I would have told you she had been bugging me since she was 12,
despite the fact that we did not know each other then and she hadn’t read it
until high school. I would not have even been kidding. It honestly felt like it
had been going on <i>forever.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And then came the <i>Lizzie Bennet
Diaries.</i> If you are not familiar with LBD, it is a YouTube show that ran in
2012-13. Consisting of 100 regular episodes of roughly 5 minutes a piece, 10
Q&A episodes and 3 epilogue episodes that came out a year later, it’s a
modern adaptation of P&P that casts Lizzie Bennet as a graduate student
studying mass communications. As part of her thesis project, she creates a
video diary that she mostly uses to rag on her family, wax poetic about Jane
and Bing Lee and rant about this Darcy dude that she hates. My friend now had a
new way to bombard me with “Pride and Prejudice” and started linking me to
episodes. After the third or fourth time she sent me episode 60--the first
proposal, known as Darcy Day to LBD fans since it’s the first time Darcy
appears on screen--I finally relented and watched the whole series.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Needless to say, I was a fan. I immediately ran out to get the original
book and have never looked back.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
And my friend was just like, <i>Yes,
I knew you would like it. That is why I kept telling you to read it!</i></div>
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">What led you to creating the storyline for “</span><span style="color: #eeeeee;">What's Past is Prologue</span><span style="color: #e0427f;">”?</span></i><br />
<br />
Not long after my first read through of
P&P, I was teaching a nonfiction
reading unit to my fifth graders. (As an anthropologist, I wanted to teach
people about the world. Figured the best way to do that was be a teacher.) It
was during the primary documents portion of the unit that I first learned of
the Year Without a Summer. My mind immediately jumped to Year Without a Summer
P&P fanfic. Specifically, a married Darcy and Elizabeth journey to Rosings
Park to help Lady Catherine sort out the impact the weather is having on her
estate. As the years passed, the storyline got incrementally tweaked over and
over again. Eventually, the Year Without a Summer wasn’t even part of it
anymore!<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">This story’s setting is Rosings Park, home of Catherine de Bourgh. What led you to make this decision and what challenges did you face writing this story in this setting?</span></i><br />
<br />
The center of the concept was always the relationship between Elizabeth Darcy and Lady Catherine. There was never a moment where it <i>didn’t</i> take place at Rosings Park. Two major challenges shaped the direction of the story:<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="margin-left: .5in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
It began as a Year Without a
Summer story. That meant Darcy and Elizabeth had been married for a few <i>years. </i>For Lady Catherine and the Darcys
to still be in conflict was silly. Jane Austen didn’t let us know how long Lady
Catherine and Darcy stayed mad at each other, but we <i>do</i> know Elizabeth cajoled him into letting go of his resentment and
the family came back together. I felt like the degree of conflict between Lady
Catherine and the Darcys did not suit the amount of time that had passed. So,
the timeline got moved earlier. No longer was it a Year Without a Summer story.
The Darcys were newlyweds.</div>
</blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="margin-left: .5in; mso-add-space: auto; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; text-indent: -.25in;">
The second challenge was just
how hard it was to work <i>Darcy himself</i>
into the plot. In my earliest drafts, Darcy and Elizabeth were happily married
and they had <i>nothing</i> to talk about.
Their relationship did not drive the story. In fact, it was essentially absent.
I spent a lot of mental energy trying to find ways to shoehorn Darcy in to
Elizabeth’s day to day life without much success.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
And then I put them in conflict with each other. And
that’s when the story blossomed. Suddenly, they had a <i>dynamic.</i> There were <i>stakes.</i>
In addition to the strife, they have all these moments of playfulness, of
honestly, of passion, of serious conversations about the situation at Rosings
Park that easily could have been in the original HEA scenario but simply
weren’t.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br /></div>
With
this change, Darcy became the engine for Elizabeth’s journey. She begins the
story without a clear view of what a successful
marriage ought to be. She’s the product of an unhappy union. Her lack of
dowry and the price of rescuing Lydia have made her a financial burden on her
husband. How long is that burden going to seem worthwhile to him? Once the
story stopped being about Lady Catherine and started being about Elizabeth
dealing with the baggage she didn’t know she had, and growing up and growing
towards Darcy as her partner, the story opened up.</blockquote>
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">What's the strangest thing you've ever had to research online for your book?</span></i><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
I feel like most of the things I research are pretty mundane, though
sometimes the results are unexpected. For “What’s Past is Prologue,” I read
agricultural surveys of Hertfordshire, Kent and Derbyshire. I wanted to know
what was grown in these counties, when it was planted, when it was harvested and what was done with the harvest.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The people of Hertfordshire were <i>very</i>
opinionated about the best way to grow wheat. The man carrying out the survey
seemed initially caught off guard by how passionate the people were about the
Right Way to Grow Wheat, but he played into it and began asking every farm he
interviewed about their Wheat Opinions. It’s sort of a funny undercurrent
throughout the entire thing. Derbyshire, on the other hand, had a reputation
for being <i>terrible</i> for growing wheat.
Some people believed wheat couldn’t grow in Derbyshire at all! It could, it
just wasn’t their big money maker. But when you look at their methods, they
were also doing the exact opposite of what the Opinionated Hertfordshire Wheat
Farmers would tell you to do, so...</div>
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">What do your plans for future projects include?</span></i><br />
<br />
Celestial cats.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">What writing advice do you have for other aspiring authors?</span></i><br />
<br />
I think the best thing you can do is to just do it and keep on doing it. Writing is a skill that you have to build through practice.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #ffd966;">Speed Round:</span></i><br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">Tea or coffee?</span></i><br />
Coffee for everyday, tea when I have the time to sit down and enjoy it.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">Morning Person or Night Owl?</span></i><br />
Night owl by nature, morning person when required.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">Cats or Dogs?</span></i><br />
Cats. Entirely too many cats.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">Movies or TV?</span></i><br />
I have not seen a single film in 2018 thus far, so I guess TV is winning by default.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #e0427f;">What came first, the chicken or the egg?</span></i><br />
The chicken, alphabetically, ordinally, and sexually.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="color: #e0427f;">Thank you Ann for being here today. I loved getting to know more about you and </span><i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">What's Past Is Prologue</span></i><span style="color: #e0427f;"> and I look forward to seeing what you'll bring us next.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ann started writing sometime before she knew how letters functioned. Her first books were drawings of circus poodles heavily annotated with scribbles meant to tell a story. Upon learning how letters were combined to represent words, she started doing that instead. This has proven to be much more successful.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sometime after that, she decided she wanted to study Anthropology and sometime after that, she decided she liked cats more than dogs. And sometime after that, she decided to become an educator and teach a new generation of kids how to combine letters to represent words, and use those words express ideas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And sometime after that, she realized all she really wanted to do was write, which probably should have been evident from the beginning.</div>

<i><span style="color: cyan; font-size: x-large;">Synopsis</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A humorous and heartbreaking second-chance stand-alone romance from the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author of the Shattered Hearts Series.
<br />
<br />
For six years, she was the only one. My best friend. My kitten. My world. Then, I broke us by getting caught in a web of lies.
<br />
<br />
Hard to believe, after everything we’d been through, I could do what I did to her… in front of 600,000 people. I doubt she’ll ever believe I did it because I love her.
<br />
<br />
Three years later, my music career is booming. I have a movie deal in the next comic book reboot. And now the only parent I have left has been given a death sentence. I have to go home, but going home means facing what I did to her.</div>

<i>Everyone knows that if you play with fire you’ll end up getting burned…</i>
<br />
<br />
What happens when you attend a first responder’s bachelor auction with your best friends? Well, if your name is Madison Kelly like me, your friends end up bidding on a date for you with your high school crush.
<br />
<br />
That’s right. Even back when I was ‘Fatty Maddie’ to all my classmates, I had eyes for the quarterback of our football team. Not like I was the only one.
<br />
<br />
Mauro Bianco may fight fires for a living, but he <em>still</em> sets my heart ablaze. One look at the rugged, muscular man he’s turned into and I want to slide down his pole.
<br />
<br />
One date. That’s all I’m committed to. A few hours and I can tuck him back into that tattered old shoebox in my closet.
<br />
<br />
As always, the universe has other plans. I never would’ve predicted that in a matter of days he’d turn from my dream guy into my enemy.

<i>Their first chance at love ended in heartbreak</i>
<br />
<br />
Wade Rycroft fell in love with Geneva Harris when she was the smartest girl in his class. The rodeo star and the shy academic made for an odd pair, but their chemistry was undeniable. They made plans to get married after high school. Those plans changed when Genny broke his heart. Joining the Army gave him a chance to leave that life behind. News that Genny married the town’s golden boy let Wade know that he could never go home again.
<br />
<br />
<em>A chance encounter rekindles an old flame</em>
<br />
<br />
Fifteen years later, he’s found his place in the world and tried to forget the woman who left him standing in the rain. After leaving the Army he forged a new life as a bodyguard at McKay-Taggart, but he still feels incomplete. When his brother’s wedding brings him home to Broken Bend, Texas, he walks into a storm of scandal. Genny’s marriage has dissolved, the town has turned against her, and someone is making threats. Seeing her again reawakens feelings he thought were long gone, and he worries that staying close enough to help her could be too much to bear.
<br />
<br />
<em>Their reunion just might kill them both</em>
<br />
<br />
After an attempt is made on Genny’s life, Wade can’t refuse to help her. Watching over her day and night, it’s clear that having her back in his life could be the thing to finally make him whole. When the danger follows them back to Dallas, their second chance at love could be over before it even begins.</div>

“Don’t. Don’t tell me how to feel. I know you’ve worked through this, but I don’t know how to.”
<br />
<br />
“It helps to admit that we were all children back then.”
<br />
<br />
“My mother wasn’t.” He needed to talk about this with her.
<br />
<br />
“No, but she wasn’t the same after your dad died. She was lost and I’ve forgiven her,” she replied quietly. “You can’t spend your life being angry.”
<br />
<br />
“You’re angry with me.”
<br />
<br />
For a moment he thought she would ignore him. Then she turned to him, her eyes shining in the moonlight. “Maybe. It’s hard to figure out how I feel about you. For a long time, I dreamed about you at night. You were the only man I ever loved. Brock killed that. I think he might have killed the part of me that can love someone other than my son. I didn’t feel a lot when my father passed. But then he was the one who told me to suck it up. I went to him after Brock hit me the first time. He told me to not make my husband mad.”

“Genny, he should have killed him. I would have. God, I should have.” That sorrow that had been building inside him threatened to spill over. Anger was there, but it was overshadowed by the terrible pain he felt at the thought of her being alone and afraid.
<br />
<br />
“It’s funny,” she said, studying him in the silvery light. “I went over pretty much every possible scenario I could, and this wasn’t the way I thought you would handle it. It’s why it took forever for me to talk to you. I thought you would either not care at all or that you would be so angry you went after everyone. I hesitated because I thought I might unleash a beast.”
<br />
<br />
He could give her this. Since the moment he’d learned the truth, he’d genuinely forced himself to think about how he reacted. It would be selfish to act out in anger when she needed him to be calm, to think about what was best for her. The drive from Broken Bend to Dallas with Ash had made that clear to him. They needed someone who would thoughtfully protect them, not a raging animal who fed his own needs. “You’ve had enough anger in your life. It’s there. God, it’s there, but I swear I won’t act on it because I won’t do anything that could hurt you. I’ll try to handle him in every legal way I can and if I have to take him out, I’ll do it in a way that can never come back on any of us. You don’t need my rage. You do need me though.”
<br />
<br />
“I don’t want to.”
<br />
<br />
“Because you think I’ll let you down again.” It wasn’t a question.
<br />
<br />
“Because I don’t want to love anyone again,” she admitted.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Nikki</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I’m not a
saint. Never claimed to be. I’ve played the game and scored my fair share—both
on and off the field. This is why I should have known better than to fall for a
hockey player. But I did. I fell fast and hard.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I’m
left with the painful consequences, reminded every day of how reckless I had
been by giving him my heart so easily—so willingly. Dalt broke me in the
cruelest of ways, and because of him I’ll never be able to love again.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dalt</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nikki
changed me. She made me want to be a better man. My days playing off the field
were over because she owned every little piece of my heart…until she left,
leaving behind a gnawing ache where my heart used to be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now she’s
back, and it’s painfully clear she hates me, ignoring me, pretending like I’m
nobody to her. But that’s just too damn bad. I want answers. I want a goddamn
explanation.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And most of
all…I want her.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“Hey.” The
intelligent greeting the only thing I could think of to say. When she
looked up and hit me with those baby blues I had to remind myself to breathe.<br />
<br />
“Hey.” One
word. That was it and she started walking off the field toward the field house.
I stood baffled for a moment. I’d never had a problem talking to a girl before
and they usually didn’t walk away from me when I did. I ran to catch up to her.<br />
<br />
“Great
game. You were amazing out there.”<br />
<br />
“Yeah,
thanks.” She just kept walking, even picked up the pace like she was trying to
get away from me.<br />
<br />
“I’m…I’m
Dalt by the way.” Like an idiot I stuck my hand out to shake hers. She stopped
and stared at my outstretched hand but didn’t make a move because her hands
were full with her bag and some of the equipment.<br />
<br />
“I know who
you are, hockey boy.” The words ‘hockey boy’ came out like they tasted sour on
her tongue. And she started walking away from me again. I couldn’t believe it.
When I caught up to her, she stopped and turned to me.<br />
<br />
“What do
you want, hockey boy?” She threw me off my game so bad, I think I stuttered.<br />
<br />
“I…um…your
name would be nice for starters.”<br />
<br />
“For
starters?” She quirked a brow.<br />
<br />
“Then I
thought you might like to get a beer or a burger or something at the Thirsty
Whale.” She scanned my body from head to toe and back up. Then the damnedest
thing happened.<br />
<br />
“No thanks.
I don’t do dates. Not looking for a boyfriend. I just like to, you know, keep
my options open.” Say what, now! Had she just turned me down for a date?</div>

of the northeast US, Elizabeth moved with her husband to the Poconos several
years ago to open a Chiropractic Clinic. Four children and a menagerie of
animals later, she has finally found time to fulfill her lifelong dream of
writing novels. The wild ride of writing books is one of the most difficult
things she’s ever done in her life. But the opportunity to get her stories out
of her head and down on paper and send them out into the world is also one of
the most wonderful things she’s ever done. A dreamer at heart, romance is the
genre she spends most of her time writing and reading into the wee hours of the
morning. And having readers fall in love with her characters as much as she
does is almost as exciting as giving birth (just not as painful!) When not
juggling work responsibilities and writing, she enjoys spending time with her
family, hiking the beautiful hills and woods around her home, swimming,
knitting, watching old classic movies and travelling.</div>

Levi Quinn has it all—money, groupies, a panty-melting smile, and a really big d*ck.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At least, he had it all. Until an angry redhead joined the Taint world tour and turned his life upside-down. Levi fell in love with her. His bandmate did too. It did not end well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Brielle Kagawa doesn’t keep company with rock stars, but when this gifted cellist finds herself kicked out of the <i>Orchestre de Paris</i> an all-expenses-paid gig in the south of France seems too good to be true.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Because it is</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The man footing the bill might be a disorderly drunk, but he has an offer she can’t refuse—stay in his chateau and play for the month. No strings attached.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Yeah right</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The truth about rock stars is that they’re awfully good players, but Levi isn’t the only one who knows how to master a set of strings.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>He’s broken-hearted.</i></div>

Her dark romance, KICK (Savage Saints MC #1), won Best Dark Romance Read in the Reader’s Choice Awards at RWDU, 2015.

A romantic at heart, Carmen strives to give her characters the HEA they deserve, but not before ruining their lives completely first … because what’s a happily ever after without a little torture?</div>
