Pixelated: Chapter 1 - Les's POV

Available on Amazon and
other ebook retailersI've had a few requests for Les's POV in chapter one. I love Les so very much. He's a good old country boy with a heart of gold. But sometimes that can get us in trouble. Here's Les's first impression of Piper. I hope you enjoy.

Cover Reveal: Holly Hearts Headlines by Kenley Conrad

I LOVE books from Swoon Romance. Check out this great cover for Holly Hearts Headlines by Kenley Conrad. 

BLURB: Holly Hart has it all: designer clothes, affluent friends, a recording contract, and she’s dating the biggest pop star in America.
It's too bad he can't be seen with her in public. It's even worse that he seems so very cozy with Lacey, the girl who seems to enjoy stealing Holly’s dream and taking all the credit for their platinum-selling album.
And Lacey? Well she couldn't c...

Well, the scale w...

Naturally, I went to the article. And I read the accompanying article. Seriously, you have to do some research these days or you'll end up saying something wrong. Have you seen that Andy Griffith died? It's been going around Facebook lately. He passed away in August 2012, yet people are...
