Return to Me Tuesday Teaser
Today, I have the paperback cover reveal and the first teaser for Return to Me.
This will be the first book available in paperback, but the others will all soon follow. I'm going to do a re-edit of Only You and Chasing Mr. Wright before I offer them in paperback. I hope to have all of them up and ready in the next few months. I decided to offer this one in paperback right away, because three special ladies are getting signed copies as a "thank you" for their name contributions in the book. I held daily contests and giveaways on my Facebook page throughout the month of December. One winner picked and named Maverick's muscle car, one named the ship that Noah's ancestors sailed to America on, and one chose the names of the two brothers who had a major impact in Noah and Maverick's union. Thank you again, Miranda, Jessica, and Janie! The names you chose couldn't have been more perfect.
Now, for the first teaser...
The beautiful cover and teaser are again the creations of Jay Aheer of Simply Defined Art. I can't begin to express how much I adore this talented lady!
I'll be back next week with another teaser.

Return to Me Cover Reveal, Blurb, Excerpt, and Release Date!!!!!!
Happy Valentine's Day to you all. I couldn't think of a better day to reveal the cover, blurb, and give you a excerpt of Return to Me.
First, the beautiful cover from Jay Aheer of Simply Defined Art. Jay is simply amazing!!
Now for the blurb:
Does the heart have a memory? Noah McKinney and Maverick Rodriguez met when they were seven years old. Maverick’s family moved into the house next to Noah’s aunt, where Noah spent every summer of his childhood. During those three months every year, the boys were inseparable as they swam in the waters of coastal North Carolina, rode bikes, told ghost stories, and dreamed of finding hidden pirate treasures. A sweet friendship developed into an even sweeter young love, but then Maverick disappeared out of Noah’s life as suddenly as he appeared. Twenty-two years later, Noah returns to Beaufort, North Carolina after he receives a call that his ancestral home has been vandalized. He is overwhelmed with a feeling that fate has something more up her sleeve than a simple home repair, but never in a million years would he have guessed what was waiting for him. Maverick has returned to Beaufort in an attempt to stop running from his past and what better place than the source of his happiest memories. He quickly earns a reputation as the best in the business at restoring old homes to their former glory. No matter how successful his business has grown, he still feels there is something missing in his life. Or is it someone? Noah and Maverick’s reunion is nothing like either man has fantasized about for so many years, but beneath the strain is an undeniable attraction and a feeling of rightness that neither man can deny or resist. However, giving in to their desires doesn’t erase their doubts and fears. Maverick knows that nothing of the boy Noah loved remains inside of him. He thinks he’s better as a memory than the man he’s become. Noah fears that Maverick will disappear again and doubts he could survive the heartbreak a second time. The heart wants what the heart wants and it won’t be denied. Can the two men overcome their fears and doubts to take a chance on a love that promises to burn brighter than the sun? Or will they use the obstacles they face as excuses to spare themselves from potential heartbreak? Return to Me is the fifth book in the Fated Hearts series. It can be read as part of the series or as a standalone novel. *This book contains sexually explicit material and is intended for adults only. And finally, the unedited excerpt from Maverick's POV: Noah was standing waist high in the water with his back towards me. He was throwing a tennis ball into the water and cheering on his dog while she retrieved it. “Atta girl, Madge. That’s daddy’s good girl.” Madge? I suddenly remembered how much Noah loved Madonna and I smiled at the name he chose for his dog. I was certain it wasn’t a coincidence. I sat down on the porch steps and watched them play together for what seemed like hours. I could’ve called out to them and made my presence known, but instead I chose to observe. The memories I tried so hard to repress came rushing back at me one right after the other and it left me feeling dizzy. I closed my eyes and tried to will away the agony of loss that accompanied my memories. I had just about gotten myself together when Noah walked out of the water like some beautiful mythic God. Even in the fading sun, I could see how perfectly his tall body was sculpted. I was jealous of the water that cascaded off of his body and I itched to run my hands over his lean muscles. Man and beast shook off the water and then flopped on a towel to look at the ocean. Did the water still make him feel small and insignificant? He often said that when we were kids. I never thought of him as insignificant and I always told him so. The various smiles that he would give me flashed through my mind. First there was the gap tooth smile at age seven, then there was his brace face smile at ages eleven through thirteen, finally there was the prettiest smile I had ever seen once his braces were removed. I loved each and every one of the smiles he gave me and I had sorely missed his sunny disposition during the years I had been without him. It wasn’t long before Noah and Madge headed back to the house. I stood up then, because I didn’t want to make it too obvious that I had been spying on him for so long. By this time, dusk has started to fall so I was sure that I wasn’t much more than a silhouette on his deck. Still, I knew the moment his eyes met mine in the semi-darkness that he knew who I was. Madge’s fur stood up on her back, but Noah reached out and placed a calming hand on her head. Did the heart have a memory? If so, it had a very long one and my heart thumped to a staccato beat that it only played for him. I was starting to sound like some sappy-ass line in a cheesy soap opera, which annoyed the fuck out of me. I felt his eyes on me, sizing me up, and possibly judging me. Did I measure up to his expectations? He stood in front of me and looked into my eyes searchingly. His eyes were exactly as I remembered them, a unique mix of blues and greens. He offered me a timid smile before he said, “Hello, Mav.” Release Date: Noah and Maverick are coming to a kindle near you on March 29th! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog to check out Noah and Maverick. Teasers will be staring really soon! XOXO Aimee

Final Perfect Fit Tuesday Teaser
One week to go!!! I am so excited about release day for these two guys. I know how long you've been waiting for their story to be written and I appreciate your enthusiasm for them more than you'll ever know. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all so very much!
Today's teaser is from Miller's POV and it was sort of an epiphany type moment for him.
There will be some release day fun, including Amazon gift card giveaways, on a few blogs. I will post links here for you on Tuesday so you can show the blogs some love and enter a chance to win gift cards. The bloggers and reviewers do so much to support authors and I appreciate them so very much.
Yesterday, I shared an excerpt from the book I'm writing for Noah and Maverick on my Facebook page. I'll share it with you too. Noah and Maverick's story will be a second chance love. I'm digging in deep and loving my time with them. This is from Maverick's POV.
“Soon, babe.” My promise was lost in the torrent of need to taste his lips again. This was not going to be a fast, greedy mating. I had - we both had - waited for too damn long. I had been searching for him and the way he made me feel for over two decades and I wasn’t willing to rush it. My touch was a slow tempo, moving to a rhythm in my mind that only I heard. I ignored the wild pounding of my heart and the urge of my body to take and claim; instead, I adored him. Thank you for stopping by today. I'll be back next week. Smooches! XOXO Aimee

Perfect Fit Teaser #5
Happy New Year to you all. Today, I'll be sharing with you a new teaser and what I have planned for 2016.
I didn't start writing full time until mid-May of 2015 and it took me several months to figure out a routine that fit my personality. I am so excited about my writing goals for the year. Below are my projected projects and release dates. I say projected because I have no way of predicting what life will throw at me.
1/19/2016 - Perfect Fit (JJ & Miller - Fated Hearts #4)
3/29/16 - Noah & Maverick (Untitled - Fated Hearts #5)
6/7/16 - Wes & Tom (Untitled - Fated Hearts #6)
8/16/16 - Mitch & Deacon (Untitled - Fated Hearts #7)
10/25/16 - Ian & Trevor (Untitled - Fated Hearts #8)
Ian and Trevor will be the final Fated Hearts book in the series. We will get caught up with all of the main characters so that we can have a proper goodbye. Early January will bring you the first book in a brand new series that has been brewing in my mind for over a year. I think you're going to love Josh and Gabe very much.
Now, onto the teaser for Perfect Fit! This is from JJ's POV.
I love the depth that this man has, which I've kept hidden in the first three books. Two more weeks!!
XOXO
