The Cover Reveal for CATCHING FOX will be Nov.17th

A new adult, contemporary romance coming soon!
A chance meeting between two young souls is all it took...
When Adalynne Fairweather was just a child, her entire life had already been planned. From Ivy League schools to a career in law, adventure was the one thing out of her reach. That was until a boy with bright green eyes and a monster truck t-shirt wandered into her back yard, giving the adventure she longed for.
Refuge can be found in the most unlikely places…
Damon Knight’s abusive home life left him longing for a childhood he never had—until he wandered into Adalynne’s yard. She took his hand, smiled at him, and even gave him a nickname. Fox. The woods became their escape—a place to flee from reality. He discovered music through Adalynne’s piano, and not long after that, she gave him a guitar. Little did he know that gift would change his life forever.
Years later, their age is not the only thing that’s changed...
Adalynne’s love for Fox took on a life of its own. As they begin to build their lives, her heart aches for him in ways she can’t understand. As they slowly begin to drift apart, Adalynne becomes more desperate to cling to their secret romance.
But Fox is no longer the bright-eyed child from the woods. Her shy, beautiful Fox has grown into a dark, troubled man with a guitar. And when her last attempt to salvage their relationship breaks Adalynne’s heart, catching Fox a second time seems just out of her reach.
“You remind me of a fox because you are quick, quiet, and…beautiful.”

Feedback for "Truth Or Dare"

I had recently released early copies of Truth Or Dare to reviewers to get some feedback on what they think of the book.

The first person to read it gave me their thoughts and it completely made my day! It is so nice to know that someone really enjoyed it. I'm a happy girl today :)

I feel more confident as release day approaches!

Here is the link to the review...

Brainstorming...

When I started writing my current work-in-progress I didn't have a plan; I merely started
typing away and let the story unfold.

I came to a point where I had to start making a outline, a rough flow of events to make sure that all the dots will all be connected.

This is a little different than my last two books, both contemporary romances. This current book has a crime element to it. I want to make sure that the situation is realistic and no holes are left if the plot.

The last few days I have scribbling madly trying to brainstorm and I am very excited to say that I think I figured it all out. The notes look like a disaster and wouldn't make sense to someone other than myself but the important thing is that it comes together quite nicely in my head. I have figured out the direction the story is heading and I am very excited!!

Truth Or Dare is now available for pre-order on Amazon!

Are you wondering what I'm up to?

I've been boring lately because I have been focusing on writing. I need to pick up the pace because I've been distracted lately. It's always exciting to see how the story is shaping up. I am just letting the story goes where it wants to go. No planning, just living on the edge :)

I am trying to get in contact with someone at a local Chapters to carry my book(s) in store. I have been bounced around a bit with finding the right contact but hopefully I will be able to place some signed copies of my books in the "local author" section.
I was in a few weeks ago check out the section. Hopefully some of my work will find a place there...

In two weeks my second book will be released but my first will always have a special place in my heart. It marked the beginning of this crazy journey!

Book Trailer for Truth Or Dare

I made some slight modifications today to the book trailer. I couldn't concentrate on writing because I am too excited. My daughter is coming home today. I haven't seen her since Sept.5 when I dropped her off at school. I can't wait to hug my baby :)

My Work In Progress...

As I sit here with my big cup of my wonderfully comforting tea I have decided that I am no longer making the book I am currently writing a series. I wanted to attempt it because it seems to be what a lot of authors are doing but the more I think about it I realize it may not be for me.

I personally love standalones because they are a complete story that doesn't leave me hanging. There is also the fact that I want to let the story happen the way it feels like it is supposed to unfold rather than thinking about drawing it out over multiple books.

I am making good progress and hopefully soon I can give you a little teaser about what to expect...

You may have noticed I also added another Work In Progress in the sidebar. This is another untitled book that I had started last spring. It is a fantasy romance with a similar feel to Alluring Song. I will also be finishing this when I can. I really love writing in the fantasy genre too. There are less limitations on my imagination :)

Giveaway Ideas...

So I have been trying to figure out a good giveaway to offer when I do my blog tours after the release of "Truth Or Dare"

Blog tours being when book bloggers sign up to help me spread the word on the select days of the tour. Giveaways are normally done for these promotional tours to help drum up excitement. Giveaways normally include signed paperbacks, ebooks, gift cards, and sometimes items that pertain to the book.

I was thinking about offering a painting (16 x 20") as a giveaway prize in the hopes that I can grab some attention. It is very fitting because the main character is an artist :)

What do you think?
