Smashwords Hotlist: Weekly indie romance bestsellers and hot preorders

Missing Pieces made it onto USA Today’s HEA Blog as one of the hottest Smashwords pre-orders of the week!  Yes, I’m doing a happy dance.  This is the closest any of my books has ever been to getting on the USA Today bestsellers list (my dream).  Maybe this year is my lucky year

‘Tis the Season – A Christmas Wish & Other Holiday News

I can’t believe that it’s only 5 days away.  How did that happen?  Not that I’m not excited – I’m always excited for Christmas!  But it really snuck up on me this year.  For the past few months I’ve been completely immersed in writing Missing Pieces and time has flown by.  I actually just wrote a scene that involved Penny and James and I can’t deny that I miss writing about them.  I know a lot of you have been asking if their story is really over.  To that I say…we’ll see what 2017 brings

Missing Pieces – Pre-order Today!

I’m so excited to announce a new book I’m working on – Missing Pieces.  It’s a standalone featuring Tyler Stevens, but it fits snugly into The Hunted Series right after Devotion.  You can think of it as The Hunted Series Book 4.5.  Does that mean you’ll see glimpses of James and Penny?  Yes it does :)  But I won’t go into any more information about what you’ll see in case you haven’t read Devotion yet!


Missing Pieces will be released on January 24th.  And if you want it to magically appear on your e-reader device that morning and dive right in, you can pre-order your copy today.


Pre-order your copy today:



Amazon

Paperback copies will be available on release day

Blurb: Tyler Stevens– Five years ago my world shattered into a million tiny pieces. I held onto the first positive thing that came into my life after that – a girl who I could never have. Because her smile made me feel whole again. Her laughter warmed my soul. The thought of her made me feel less broken. The only problem was that she didn’t love me back. I waited. I tried. I hoped. But I failed. She just married someone else.


I’m shattered again. So I’m driving across country toward my new future, trying to escape my past, trying to pick up my own pieces this time. But then I met Hailey Shaw. She came into my life like a whirlwind. Opinionated, full of energy, and sexy as hell. Before her, what if I didn’t know what love really was? What if the decision I made a few days ago, at one of my lowest points, is going to make me lose out on happiness once again?



Hailey Shaw– I didn’t like to rely on other people. I learned at a young age that my dad and I were on our own. But now my dad’s sick. And I’ll do whatever it takes to save him. Even if it means facing my biggest fears. Even if it means climbing in a stranger’s car and driving across the country with him. And I’m not talking about just any stranger. Because Tyler Stevens is different than anyone I’ve ever met before. He’s the first boy that’s made my heart race in five years. The first boy that makes me want to trust. The first boy that makes me feel whole again.


But he’s in love with someone else. I’ve spent my whole life being second, cast aside, unwanted. I can’t do it again. So why am I falling for the one boy I can’t keep?


Pre-order today!
