Hot Summer Reads

Hello readers,

Have you heard my news? I had TWO books launch this summer.

My latest YA title, NOTHING LEFT TO BURN just came out this month. It's an emotional story about a teen trying to earn his dad's respect.

And HIS TOUCH is a contemporary romance -- book 1 in a Summer in New York series. Its' also the sequel to my Christmas story, A Match Made at Christmas.

Check them out and if you can, please leave reviews, especially on Amazon!

And if you really love them, find me online @pattyblount and we'll chat :) There's nothing I love more than talking about books.

Who loves a good ghost story?

It's almost Halloween!

If you love a good ghost story, don't miss my upcoming release, THE SMELL OF SMOKE AND ASH. It drops on Halloween and is my 7th young adult title to date.

17-year-old Riley Carter lost his dad and brother in a house fire when he was 12. He's been seeing visions of his dad ever since. But lately... those visions are growing more intense. Dangerous. When one injures him, he seeks help from a local psychic who informs him that his dad is haunting him.

Why?

That's what Riley has to find out.

Fast. Before the next vision kills him...
