To Mondays and new beginnings..

Nothing can brighten a Monday faster than by doing something good for someone else.


Today’s act of kindness? Sending 200 of these audio players off into the world.


They’re bound for ManorCare and Sunrise Assisted Living facilities on the east coast, to be used in their Memory Care wings. Between general physical limitations – and COVID restrictions on activities and socializing, we’re glad the Live A Thousand Lives Classic Fiction audio players can bring entertainment and joy to their residents.


We’re ecstaticweepyproud to be launching the Live a Thousand Lives nonprofit. And this is just the beginning. With luck – and more of the support that got us to today, we’ll be shipping audio care packages to facilities and homes across the country.


Here’s to Mondays and great beginnings!


Purchase an Audio Player and donate two with your purchase. Or simply donate to Live A Thousand Lives here.

Let us all live a thousand lives and help others..

https://willowwinterswrites.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/video-1602950954-1.mp4



We can all live a thousand lives by reading but not everyone can physically hold a book to read a story. That’s why the Live A Thousand Lives Audio Players are a solution for so many.


The above video appears to be cut off at the end (it is). What I said next is, “if I could go back and give them a thousand lives, I would.”




With a team of wonderful people by my side, we created a way to – at the very least – provide books to individuals with low to no mobility with the use of audio books. We believe that a love for books should be treasured, no matter what, and that no physical condition should impede any reader from experiencing the joy of a story.




And I know other book lovers would love to have these devices! So you can enjoy your own and donate 2 in the process.


Or simply donate.


Your donation allows us to distribute audio players preloaded with 50 classic titles to individuals within the mobility-impaired community. Imagine your love for books empowering others to experience the same joy.


Donate today or purchase a Romance or a Classic audio player to contribute 2 devices with your purchase here: www.liveathousandlives.com






Your support of this charity means so much to us. A thousand times, thank you.

USA Today Best Selling Author, Willow Winters, brings you an all-consuming, sizzling romance featuring an epic, anti-hero you won’t soon forget.


Some love stories are a slow burn. Others are quick to ignite, scorching and branding your very soul before you’ve taken that first breath. You’re never given a chance to run from it.

That’s how I’d describe what happened to us.


Everything around me blurred and all that existed were his lips, his touch…

The chase and the heat between us became addictive.

Our nights together were a distraction; one we craved to the point of letting the world crumble around us.

We should have paid attention; we should have known that it would come to this.

We both knew it couldn’t last, but that didn’t change what we desired most.

All we wanted was each other…


Happy reading book lovers! MUAH!


 


Love, Willow


xoxo

A little update on me and my books…

So last week I launched the second Spanish book of my Merciless series, sin corazón, you can start reading the first book sin compasión here, launched the first issue of the comic for the Merciless series, launched a charity (Live A Thousand Lives) and wrapped up edits on But I Need You (book 2 of the This Love Hurts trilogy that launches today) … Its kind of insane.



I couldn’t do it without all of the help I have from so many people (big shout out to Sophie and my hubby here) but I want everyone who’s watching and thinking “omg how does she do that? She’s a super woman!” to know I didn’t do a darn thing for almost 3 months earlier this year. And yesterday I spent all day just thinking about scenes I want to add to a book. Literally I take time to do nothing but think because during those hours that is what I need and sometimes all I’m capable of.



It’s worth it to take the time to process everything and focus on self care. Aka, I can’t do this alone and some days, I can’t “do” anything. I don’t give myself a hard time over it. Give yourself grace. Self care is productive and we all need that right now

Simply Irresistible is a collection of three romance novels that are just that, simply irresistible...
Including:

TEMPTED
I lived my life with no regrets.Until she showed up. It started with her old man. That stubborn bastard set me up. He knew what he was doing, and I fell for his daughter before I even heard her voice.
What was he thinking, trying to set her up with a prick like me?

INKED
Little Miss Goody-Two-Shoes just moved in next door.
She’s a good girl, the kind I want to ruin. It’s only a matter of time before I'll have her in my arms and clinging to me the way I need her to.
The problem is, she knows I’m bad news. I’ve always been trouble.

MR. CEO
I’m used to dominating the boardroom and getting what I want.
But I’ve never wanted anyone like her.
Even though I have the world at my beck and call, it no longer excites me. Nothing does.
Until she comes along.

Mason & Julia's duet is now COMPLETE!!⁣ I am so happy! I really hope you love it xoxo

Start reading their intense romance with second chances, secrets and a twist today! ⁣

You Are My Reason Book 1: https://geni.us/swhnnM

You Are My Hope Book 2: https://geni.us/CtvCPeQ

From USA Today best-selling author Willow Winters comes an intense romance with second chances, secrets and a twist.⁣

Mason Thatcher gave me chills when I first laid eyes on him. The good kind. The kind that make your body ache, and your heart hammer.⁣

It’s not fair that his touch eased my pain.⁣
That his lips on mine made my worries vanish.⁣
That his love gave me a reason to breathe again.⁣

With him I felt complete, as if fate had given me a second chance.⁣

Then I learned the truth: the sins and secrets of what had really brought us together.⁣
I only hope we could go back. I never could have imagined this.⁣

BRAND NEW RELEASE ON SALE!!

I still can’t balance a book on my belly (it’s a ski slope right now) but You Are My Reason is LIVE and on sale at $2.99 release week only so snag it now: https://geni.us/swhnnM!

117374472_4215926655145487_2380696185201597236_n

I wrote this book three years ago and originally published it as Imperfect. I have been going through and rewriting and elevating my back catalog this year and I was scared to move on to this one. I wrote it at a horrible place in my life. I was exhausted but couldn’t sleep and if I did, my heart would feel like it was racing when I woke up. It was the start of a very difficult period for me that lasted nearly a year. The one thing I had though - the one real escape from all of the anxiety - was that I still wanted to write and the stories still came to me. It’s what kept me going. Now though ... going back to this book that I can pin point as being written in this dark time, like I said, I was scared and when I opened it, I was so relieved and so surprised by how much I loved it. There was a lot to elevate as I’ve grown so much over the years. But it was such an amazing escape and nothing I felt personally about that time resonated in the book. It’s a romance, sexy and with lots of twists and it’s everything I love about books.
I think that’s why I was still able to write - these books are my escape. And for that reason, I will never let them get dusty and move on from them. They were there for me when I needed them and as I grow as an author, I’ll make sure my books do too!

I hope you love You Are My Reason, book 1 in the You Are Mine Duet. Available everywhere for $2.99 release week ONLY: https://geni.us/swhnnM xoxo

REASON_LIVE_BOOKSTAGRAM


From USA Today best-selling author Willow Winters comes an intense romance with second chances, secrets and a twist.

It’s been a long time since I’ve looked at a man and wanted something more.
Even longer since one has looked at me with a gaze I couldn’t tear my eyes from.

No one’s perfect, but that’s how he felt when I was in his arms.
I started to think everything was going to be all right. That life had finally put the pieces of my broken heart back together.

Fate brought us close.

It’s a pretty little thought my poetic mind had.
But there’s no doubt that the sins of his past will tear us apart.

You Are My Reason is book 1 in the You Are Mine duet and should be read first.
