Throwback to Rayne...
While we have another few weeks before the next release, I wanted to throw things back to Rescuing Rayne.
This is the first book in the Delta Force Heroes series (and it's FREE!). The funny thing about this book is that the first part, where Rayne meets Ghost and spends time with him in London, was originally supposed to be a separate novella. I was supposed to be participating in a boxset with other authors, and I wrote this as a kind of "prequel" to Rescuing Rayne.
But then that boxset fell through and I had to decide what to do with that novella. Do I put it out on its own as a prequel? Do I charge for it? Make it free? Send it out to my newsletter subscribers as a freebie? As you all know, I decided just to make it Rescuing Rayne. At the time, that made that book my longest book I'd published.
I'm really glad that I did that because I think it made the book more cohesive. I think readers wouldn't have felt that connection between Rayne and Ghost if they somehow missed that prequel and started the book with Rayne going to Egypt.
Anyway, so that's the story of Rescuing Rayne. I hope if you haven't read it, you'll give it a try and hopefully be interested in reading the entire team's story!
I hope you're all having a wonderful week. Remember to always be kind to others!

PS. This week I wrote a blog post for Kobo's blog, KoboLife. It's aimed at authors, BUT I think it's applicable to everyone. It's about social media and the dangers of comparisonitis. You can find it here: http://bit.ly/2FCMHAu

PPS. Here's a Rescuing Rayne Throwback Excerpt:
“God, your lips were made for kissing. They’re full and pink…and I can just imagine how soft they’ll be against my own.” He put a bit of pressure against her neck but didn’t pull her all the way to himself. It was obvious he was waiting for her to make the decision on whether or not to kiss him.
Wanting this man’s lips on her own more than she wanted to breathe, Rayne leaned forward the inch it took to close the gap between them, as if his lips were magnets and she couldn’t resist the pull.
Their lips met and Rayne swore she felt something click between them the second they touched. She didn’t have time to analyze the odd feeling because his tongue swiped across her lips and she immediately opened to him, letting him take whatever he wanted.
