★ HOLLYWOOD DIRT IS LIVE!!! ★
My newest book just released and readers are LOVING this contemporary romance about a small town that is invaded by the glitz and glamour of Hollywood!
Please see below for the description and links!
★ DESCRIPTION ★
Cole Masten. Abandoned by his superstar wife, Hollywood’s Perfect Husband is now Hollywood’s Sexiest Bachelor: partying hard and screwing even harder. Move over Colin Farrell, there’s a new bad boy ruling Los Angeles.
Summer Jenkins. That's me, a small town girl stuck in Quincy, Georgia. I cook some mean chicken and dumplins, can bluff a grown man out of his savings in poker, and was voted Most Friendly my senior year. Other than that… I don’t have too much going on.
We were from different worlds. Our lives shouldn’t have collided. But then Cole Masten read a book about my small town. And six months later, his jet landed on our dusty airstrip, and he brought Hollywood with him.
From the start, I knew he was trouble. For our town. And for me.
Sometimes, opposites aren't meant to attract.

Ready for a new book?
It's a big week for me, because I have a new book to share! It's called EVEN MONEY, and it's part 1 of a duet.
The Book:
Title: Even Money
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Series: Book 1 of 2
Price: $2.99 this week only!
Description:
Sometimes it only takes a minute. A connection of eyes across a room, a quickened heartbeat, and everything changes.
I was a cocktail waitress with a fondness for partying and meaningless hook-ups.
He owned half of Vegas, with the reputation to match.
I should have turned away. Instead, I stepped closer.
Then, the lies started.
Rumors spread.
Stalking commenced.
And someone died.
It didn't stop me from falling in love.
*This is book 1 in a duet. The second book, Double Down, will release on June 18th*

EXCERPT
“I’d like to speak to your boss.” His words were quiet, but I knew they were being picked up by the hidden mics, set into every seam of this building. He turned to me, and in the direct eye contact, I felt unstable, a scrap of paper loose in a hurricane.
Did everyone feel this way? Was this how he’d captured our city so easily, how he’d filled thousands of hotel rooms and seduced the best talent into his workforce?
I reached out, resting my hand on the railing and forced myself not to grip it for dear life. “I’m afraid that isn’t possible. The owners aren’t here tonight.”
“Ah.” He nodded and stepped closer. I forced myself not to move. This close to him, I could smell his cologne. I could feel the edge of his pants as they brushed against my bare legs. “I don’t believe you,” he said quietly.
I lifted one shoulder in the most casual way I could and shrugged. “Sometimes people don’t.”
It was a risky move, and I thought of all the stories I’d heard, men who had lost body parts or disappeared, all for playing the wrong way, counting the wrong cards, or saying the wrong things. I met his eyes, tightened my gut, and prepared for the worst.
Then, he laughed, turning back to the floor, his hands resting on the railing, the edge of a grin visible on that handsome face.
He was beautiful, in a fierce, wild way. Short dark hair, littered with silver. Big, strong features, a once-broken nose, but handsome lines. He looked like a pretty boy who grew into a man and beat the shit out of the kid he’d once been. He looked like a night full of filthy, delicious sex, and a string of orgasms that would leave you panting and delirious. He looked untouchable.
He looked back at me, and the hint of a smile still touched his lips. “Ballsy. I like that.”
