Have you seen my teaser and synopsis for my new book, Twisted Desire? It's slated to release Fall 2014 and I couldn't be more excited!

Here is the synopsis:

She woke in the dark. The sharp surge and sway of her world the only hints she has of her surroundings.

Penelope Santoro is alone, trapped in an empty room of what could only be a boat in the middle of a rough ocean. With no recollection of how she got there, and no escape in sight, she's quickly losing hope that she will ever find her way home.

Tag Reynolds is detached. His life depends upon it. But when the beautiful daughter of one of his biggest rivals winds up in his care, his entire world shifts. Drawn to her innocence, he desperately fights the feelings he can't have...feelings that could destroy everything he's worked for.

Penny is nothing more than a pawn in a deadly game -- a game that Tag cannot afford to lose. Can he save her without compromising his position, or will they become victims of their twisted desire?

Discovering Lucy and Distorted are on sale for .99 for an undetermined amount of time! Grab them at this great price. :)

Reviews help authors out so much, more than I ever knew before I entered the world of writing and publishing. If you liked, or even *loved* Discovering Lucy, would you do me a HUGE favor and leave me a review on GoodReads and Amazon? It would be so helpful to me and I would appreciate it more than you could ever know.

The reviews that are on here have completely blown me away. The love most of you have for Knox and Lucy humbles me greatly. I am so happy my book touched you all in some way and that you fell in love with it as much as I did. I'm honored at all of your kind words. Thank you.

Here is the link to DL on Amazon. I'm currently at 28 reviews. Once I hit 30, I'll have a giveaway. Once I hit 50, I'll have a major giveaway. Please help by leaving me a review. Thank you so much!

I was a little sneaky and pressed publish a tad early. It's LIVE!

My baby is going to be released on March 7th. It's always nerve-racking to let your book go out into the big big world. I'm so excited to share it too though. Knox has a special place in my heart, as he's been asking to be written for so long now. I hope you love him just as much as I do.

Tell me, why are you excited to read Discovering Lucy?

I will be posting my new book title and the blurb tomorrow here, on my FB page, and my blog. I cannot wait to share it with you!

My good friend Ashley Truelove, who blogs at www.lookinforabookin.com, sent me this song saying it reminded her of a scene in my book. For those of you who have read DISTORTED, you will know exactly what scene she is talking about. Take a listen:

Who here has read Distorted? If so, what did you think? Did you like it or hate it? I'd love to hear but PLEASE no spoilers. If you want to discuss the book in detail, please message me through here. I would honestly love to hear from you. :)

The love and support I've received for me and my book has been amazing. Thank you to everyone who has given us both a chance. Whether you liked it or not, the fact you read it means the world to me. I realize not everyone will connect with it, and that's okay. But giving a new author a chance helps more than you know. I hope those of you who haven't read it yet will when you can. I also love getting messages hearing if you liked it, and if you didn't. Again, thank you.

Before I knew what was happening, he slammed his lips down on mine in a mind-blowing kiss. Stunned, I just stood there, not registering completely what was going on. Finally, feeling his tongue sliding across my lips, I melted into the kiss and opened my mouth.

His tongue dove inside and my knees buckled. Lifting me up, he held me around my waist as he deepened the kiss. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I heard him groan. Turned on more than I ever have been in my life, I thrust my tongue into his mouth then threaded my hands through his wavy hair. It felt better than I’d ever imagined and I was lost. His lips were soft and the power of his kiss stunned me into a passion I never knew existed. His tongue swirled in my mouth shooting an electrifying current through me that made me moan deeply inhis mouth.

I just wanted to drink him in and never forget how good he tasted.
