After I saw all of the responses and how happy everyone was that I decided to do it, I knew that I made the right choice!!
So, I want to thank all of my loyal readers who have taken the time to message me to tell me how much they enjoy my books or taken the time to write reviews. You guys are the best and I love that something that I LOVE doing make you guys so happy!
As of right now An Unplanned Life is live on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. An Unplanned Lesson is on sale for .99 cents until Sunday. I will be working on getting it on itunes and Smashwords. I hope all of my little Dailan O'Maley lovers love him just as much in this book as they did in first!!
Have a great day & Happy Halloween!!

You guys really are the greatest and the ones that encouraged me to write this sequel...and I'm so happy that you did! I just hope that you love it as much as An Unplanned Lesson (I know I do...but I guess I'm a little biased) So, hopefully by tomorrow you will be spending time with Dailan O'Maley...after all, he's better than any kind of candy there is, right?
Ps. An Unplanned Lesson is on sale for .99 cents until Sunday. Feel free to spread the word :)

Cover Reveal & Trailer for Bare Hearts
Well, it's been a while since I blogged anything so I thought today would be the perfect time to jump back in!
Devon Youngblood will be releasing her second novel Bare Hearts on December 13th. I really enjoyed her debut novel Coming Back to You so I am very happy to share her beautiful cover and trailer for Bare Hearts:
Life can change in an instant.
When twenty-two year old Lily receives a devastating phone call, her life is sent into a whirlwind. Still holding on to hope, she meets Parker in the most unlikely place, where the two experience a special connection.
Home from the Army after a four year stint Parker faces a tough decision whether or not to reenlist. While his life is spiraling downward from his own devastation, his only coping mechanism is living life on the edge.
It’s not until later on when the two meet again in an unusual place that they realize their connection is too strong to resist. Brought together by tragedy, they hang on to each other as they start to slowly face their futures.
Their toughest obstacle is yet to come when Parker realizes that he has been harboring a secret that could shatter Lily's world. Can they cope with their losses together or will the secret be too much to bare?
Or can love really conquer all?

Favorite Reads Of Summer Giveaway
It's never easy to trade in the long warm days of summer for the cold dreary days of winter. But before we get to winter we have my favorite time of the year, fall. Now, I know a lot of people (depending on where you live) don't get to experience the vibrant shades of red and gold that adorn the trees or the warm days and the cool crisp nights. That's not to say that I will not miss sitting on the beach with a good book and even though I didn't have much time for reading this summer, I did read three that I absolutely loved: Book one and two of the Progress Series by Amy Queau (Progress & Interrupted) and Forever You by Sandi Lynn
So I put together this little giveaway with my favorite reads of Summer 2013. I've included book two of the Progress Series (Interrupted) because book one Progress is free for the next four days on Amazon, so go one click it NOW....you will not be sorry that you did.
I also included Drowning in Love because of course that was one of my favs as well! And as an added bonus I've included The Exception to The Rule
Good luck and I hope you all enjoy these books as much as I did!

“Nicole, just stop. I have this all under control.”
I was getting annoyed. Really annoyed. Was he really that much into this case that he was actually going to dismiss this as nothing? “Really Dailan? I just wish that you would get your priorities straight.”
“I’m not going to get into it with you Nicole. You can try and provoke a fight with me all you want, but I’m not biting. I told you that I have everything handled. If that’s not good enough for you then go sulk somewhere else, because I can’t deal with your mood swings today.”
Oh, the things that I wanted to say to him! But I stopped myself just in time, knowing that his mother was right in the next room. “I’m not sulking Dailan. I’m concerned about Ryan. I’m sorry if he doesn’t take priority over your precious case that you’re working on but he and Ella are my first priority!”
He rolled his eyes at me. “You just don’t ever stop, do you? I love Ryan and Ella just as much as you do and I told you I’m taking care of this. What fuckin’ more do you want from me Nicole?”
“I don’t know Dailan. Maybe you could figure that out while you’re spending all that time at work.”
That’s it, I was done. We would just now play the silent game that the two of us had become so accustomed to lately. He got up and walked into the living room. I decided to make up more bottles for Ella and realized that I didn’t have any more formula. She had one bottle left and I knew I had to get to the store to get more or this would give Kitty the perfect excuse to give her milk. I grabbed my purse and keys. When I opened up the front door, I realized that Dailan’s car was behind mine. Shit, now I’m going to have to be the first one to speak!
I poked my head into the living room. “Could you move your car? I need to run to the store to get Ella more formula.”
He took his keys out of his pocket and tossed them to me. “Just take my car,” he said, like it was killing him to even talk to me.
I headed out the door, feeling a little like a prisoner being let out on parole. I was ashamed to admit it but I was actually excited to be going out to buy formula all by myself. Not that my time spent with Kitty was bad today, but I just needed some alone time, even if was only for ten minutes. I got into his car and immediately turned down the blasting radio. I rolled down the windows until the air conditioner kicked in. As I adjusted the seat I took a deep breath, breathing in that scent. The scent that brought back so many horrible memories - Rachel Wiser's favorite perfume.
