'In My Soul' was a beautiful collection, the words jump right off the pages and hit you in your own soul. I loved the poems in the collection, it felt like Kayleigh was sharing such a huge part of herself inside these pages. This is a collection I will read time and time again. I love the way in which she writes these incredibly important poems. Highly recommend.</div>

Alan isn’t the best man. He’s the first to admit it, but he’s trying to be better. It’s not easy having good intentions and compulsive desires at the same time.<br /><br />As Alan’s layers peel away, you come to know the worn soul beneath the man. The traumatic childhood tragedies that have made him this way. A troubled past can shape you, or break you, and Alan is teetering somewhere in between. But he’s a gentleman at heart, hiding a dark past, and a life-size, synthetic secret.<br /><br />Sabrina is a doll. She can’t move. She can’t talk. She can’t kiss Alan back like a real woman can. She can’t even tell him she loves him. But what she can do for him is something no woman has ever done before: she can stay. Who said love had to be with a real person for it to be real?</i></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Merriweather, Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; text-align: left;"> </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #111111; font-family: 'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;">'Synthetic Love' was not a typical read, which is one of the reasons I was drawn to it. I like to read a wide variety of books and this one was not a disappointment. It was not a typical love story and I loved it. Not only was the story engaging and the characters beautifully created, but I also think it shed light on some darker issues a lot of people deal with. There is really something about Christina's writing that just pulls you in and keeps you there glued to it. Great book and I recommend everyone give it a read.</span><br />

<span style="background: white; font-family: "Iowan Old Style","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">In a lot of ways, I was one of the lucky ones. My high school crush liked me back.

<span style="background: white; font-family: "Iowan Old Style","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt;">His name was Bryan Winthrop. He was our high school basketball star. The prom king. The most beautiful boy I had ever laid eyes on. He liked me — the theatre geek who never should have caught his eye — but he <i>loved</i> her.</span><span style="background: white; font-family: "Iowan Old Style","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Iowan Old Style"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Iowan Old Style";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

I didn’t mean for the play I wrote about our high school affair to blow up. I didn’t mean for it to reach all the way back to my roots, wreaking havoc, wrecking families.</span><span style="background: white; font-family: "Iowan Old Style","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-bidi-font-family: "Iowan Old Style"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Iowan Old Style";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

‘For Now’ by Kat Savage blew me away. For a while now I have
been in a stagnant reading cycle where nothing was catching my attention, but
Delilah from ‘For Now’ took my attention and ran with it. She was such an
intriguing and captivating character. The story of Delilah and Samuel and the struggles
that they faced both alone and together was so very moving and heart wrenching.
It was written in such a beautiful tone and flowed so smoothly. I couldn’t put
it down; this will be a book that I turn to again and again. I couldn’t get the
characters out of my head for days. I highly recommend it. <o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Krystal George Bio<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">First off<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>- Thank you
so much for taking the time to look into my imagination! It’s such an amazing
feeling to dream of something in your head and then put your whole heart into
putting it on paper. I feel so lucky and blessed to be able to do this and
share my dreams with you!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">I’ve been writing as far back as I can remember. As a young
reader, I was obsessed with anything that made me scared! My shelves were
littered with books from YA Horror greats like RL Stine and Christopher Pike.
Then when I moved on to middle school I feel in love with Anne Rice’s Vampire
Chronicles and also began reading romance. Primarily for this reason, I have
devoted my writing to mostly paranormal romance and stick to the YA and NA
categories.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Wounded is my first book with the story planted firmly in
reality! It’s a love story centered on military life and how that life has an
effect on the people who live it and the relationships that are formed despite
the time spent away from home. It’s a very personal story and I hope that you
enjoy it!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Currently I am lucky to live in beautiful Colorado where I
can see the mountains from my doorstep! I’ve been a Colorado native my entire
life and have an incredible husband who supports my dreams as well as four
children that help to create them. My passions include reading, writing,
graphic design, and music. A rare known fact about me is that I have an intense
fear of Orca’s – they didn’t get the name Killer Whale because they are nice!
This is a means of constant torment from my family, but it’s all in good fun
and a few nightmares are good for the soul… right?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Here is an excerpt from Wounded. I hope that you enjoy it
and that Cole and Emma can capture your heart the way they did mine!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Watching her, Cole shut down the part of his brain that
would over analyze the situation and just went with his instincts. Tentatively
he reached out and just barely touched her shoulder. When she turned and smiled
sadly at him, he took it as encouragement and reached farther to twirl a piece
of her hair around his finger. It was soft and silky and when the slight breeze
caught hold of the flyaway strands, they tickled against his skin.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">"I'm sure he loves you very much Emma." Cole
whispered, so lost in the moment that he was leaning toward her hoping that she
would inch closer his way giving him the okay to kiss her.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">"You have to know someone to love them, don't
you?" She asked. Her voice was shaking and a little frightened and all of
the sudden he wondered if they were talking about her and her father or
something else entirely.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">"Sometimes, I think you just know. Regardless of
anything else."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Then the moment that he had been waiting for was in front of
him. Emma's eyes closed as she slowly leaned closer to him. She was so
incredibly beautiful that it made his heart ache just to look at her as he
closed the distance between them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">When their lips finally met, Emma felt her heart sigh. Even
though she hadn't been sure she wanted him in there, her heart had always known
and there couldn't have been a more perfect moment. It was a simple kiss… a
sweet one. One that didn’t demand or intrude. When it was over he dropped her
hair and smiled at her shyly.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Ladies and gents we have a special Tuesday Spotlight this week, please welcome Jamie Sterling!<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"></span> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Jamie Sterling is always writing something, whether it’s at
work or just an idea that will never see the light of day. As a technical
writer by trade, it’s sometimes tough making the transition from dry,
repetitive instructions and procedural steps to the richer, descriptive prose
describing the passion, the conflict, and the drama of a romance novel. At
times the dichotomy is overwhelming.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">“I live in New York’s Mid-Hudson Valley and commute to
Manhattan just about every day. It’s exhausting, but at least I get to write on
the train, and that is a huge plus! Sometimes, when I’m stuck on a scene, just
watching the scenery of the river and the hills surrounding it gets my creative
juices flowing and gives me the best ideas.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">“Captured Hunter is an exploration of how most people are afraid
to pursue what they really want in life. We are all afraid of showing certain
sides of ourselves, but it’s only by being brave enough do we have a chance to
recognize our dreams.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Jamie is a voracious reader and enjoys getting lost in the
world that a book can create in the mind. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“It’s better than TV or movies, because they
force you to see what they show. In a book, the reader creates the set and how
the characters look. I love that.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Jamie’s first full-length romance novel, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Captured Hunter</i>, released earlier this
month from Siren Publishing and is available as an e-book. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">Hunter looked skeptical. “I have to ask—is this a haunted
house with actors playing decapitated corpses and jumping out at you, or is
this a haunted house with mediums calling spirits from the dead?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">

<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“Yup. Scared?” Her voice was almost taunting him,
daring him to show weakness.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“Uh, no. I have to admit I’m a little surprised that
you believe in ghosts and spirits and all that stuff.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“You don’t?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“Not a bit. I think they are a combination of overactive
imaginations and wishful thinking. There’s nothing that passes as proof, or
even evidence, of ghosts. As a woman of science, shouldn’t you believe what the
evidence points to?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">Stephanie seemed entertained by Hunter’s challenging
position. “Of course I do. And that’s the beauty of it. I don’t know if ghosts
really exist anymore than the next person, because I’ve never seen any
evidence. But me not seeing evidence is not the same as there being no
evidence, or evidence to the contrary, so I’m a doubter until I see something
definitive, like you say. Maybe there is no evidence because ghosts don’t
exist, maybe we can’t perceive the kind of evidence they leave behind, or—hey,
don’t roll your eyes at me! —or maybe spirits like to tease the living, showing
us just enough to make us uncertain of their existence.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">She parked and they headed for the entrance. “‘Tease
the living?’” Hunter was caught up in this debate, mostly because he knew it
was in good fun and also because Stephanie appeared entertained by the back and
forth. “So ghosts come back from the dead to…mess with our heads? I’d rather be
one of those totally evil ghosts that scares the shit out of people and makes
them drop dead on the spot.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“I think you could pull that off!” she said as she
slugged him in the arm while they walked. “Don’t you like scary movies?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“Sure, but that doesn’t mean I think the plot is
non-fiction. I like Christmas movies and cartoons, but I don’t think Santa
Claus is real or that rabbits and ducks and pigs can talk.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“Cartoons? Really?” She shook her head dismissively.
“Anyway, it’s fun to be scared, and it makes it scarier when you give a little
credence to the idea that these things might be real and lurking around the
corner, so I suspend my disbelief.” They reached the entrance of the rather
large colonial-style home. “I want this to be fun—do you think you can figure
out a way to have fun with it?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">He thought for a moment. Hunter had to agree that it
used to be fun to turn off the lights and scare the crap out of himself. He had
read The Amityville Horror as a twelve-year-old, and it had cost him many
nights of sleep, wondering what might happen to him in his house at 3:15 a.m.
However, back then he hadn’t been nearly as sure about the lack of ghosts and
spirits as now. That would make it harder to fully commit to the evening, but
he wanted to have fun as well. “OK, I’ll find a way to enjoy myself and stay in
the spirit.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 107%;">“Thanks.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

ABOUT THE AUTHOR <br />
<br />
Lisa fell in love with the idea of storytelling when she first discovered the world of books at a very early age. For as long as she can remember she has wanted to write. Now, after following several different paths, the written word has once again called to her. Her first published piece, Jacob's Awakening, was first released as part of the anthology, "Miraculous: Tales of the Unknown." It is currently updated and re-released as part of Marfa House's 2016 Halloween Anthology, "The Witches' Cavern" and as a stand alone short. Readers will be able to learn and discover more about Jacob in Lisa's upcoming series, Living Outside the Box. Lisa lives in Florida with her husband, three children, and Schnoodle pup. She has first-hand experience with autistic children from which she drew when developing Jacob's character. She spends her free time reading and trying to instill the love of books in her children. <br />
<br />
She currently has several other writing projects in the works as well, including a stand alone young adult fantasy novel and a creative non-fiction work about raising a child with autism. <br />

EXCERPT – JACOB’S AWAKENING <br />
<br />
“There you are! What took you so long to get here, my boy?” It was an older man who had spoken. He pulled away from the mass of human bodies huddled at the far end of the clearing when he saw Jacob standing there, a dazed look on his face. <br />
Something about this man seemed very familiar to Jacob; however, he was sure he had never met him before. “Or have I?” Jacob mused to himself. Something about the older man tugged at a memory he just could not grasp. “The eyes. Those electric blue eyes, where have I seen them before,” Jacob thought to himself. Jacob himself has brilliant, emerald green eyes. He always thought they were a combination of his father's sapphire blue and his mother's honey. <br />
“We have been waiting quite a long time for you to get here, Jake. I knew you would find your way to me eventually. You see, I can explain this all. Help it make more sense for you. Would you like that?” <br />
Jacob stepped back. He was confused, didn’t understand exactly what the man was talking about. “Do not be afraid. You are dreaming and I know that everything must seem very frightening to you right now. But this is not the first dream like this you have had nor will it be the last.” <br />

BONUS TEASER EXCERPT: <br />
<br />
TIEGAN’S FATE <br />
<br />
Tiegan O’Shea is just your average 16-year-old girl. She is a junior in high school. She is active on the soccer team, the swim team and the softball team. Her best friend, Kieran Tarver, is the boy next door type who has always had her back no matter what. <br />
<br />
But there are a few things about Tiegan that are different. You see, Tiegan has been raised by a single dad. She knows really very little about her mother. Her dad has always told her that her mom died when she was very, very small. Too small, in fact to even remember her at all without the pictures that her father keeps on the mantle in the living room of their New England Colonial-style home. <br />
<br />
If only that super relationship could have prepared them for all of the things that were about to change in their lives.

down my fork after cleaning my plate of salmon, crab legs, and roasted
potatoes, the smile grew on my face. “I seriously think that was the best

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">I

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“Isn’t

in an offered toast. “To the last day of anonymity.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“I do,”
I said, taking a sip. “People aren’t what they used to be. They’re more
tolerable of differences and more curious about the unknown. I mean I think it
will be a little rough for a while, but something else will come along that’s
louder and shinier, and their interest will move on.” When Derrick just stared
at me, I shook my head. “What?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“Do you
even understand how much I want to take you back to my place right now?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“Huh?”
Words simply wouldn’t form as the aroma of his bear filled the space around us.
His hand found my knee under the table and the feeling of skin on skin ignited
a fire of need in me that I hadn’t felt before.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“I will
never forgive myself for wasting so much time with you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“What do
you mean?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“I knew
you had a crush on me. The brothers teased me about it all of the time. But I
wouldn’t listen. I refused to listen. Even if, now that I can look back, even
if my bear was trying to tell me otherwise.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">I
swallowed the emotions welling up in my throat. “What are you saying, Derrick?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri;">“I’m
saying that I want you to be mine. And I wish we hadn’t wasted so much time
getting to this place, but now that we’re here…I don’t ever want us to be away
from each other. These last few days have been torturous for me. My bear wants
you. I want you.” Derrick lifted his hands and reached across the table for my
own. When I placed them inside of his, he smiled. “You’re my mate, and I love
you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Jodie Pierce is both a traditionally and self-published
vampire Author that has also dabbled in vampire horror and vampire erotica. She
has four traditionally published novellas and many other self-published
novellas as well. She has had a fascination with vampires since 7<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup>
grade but it wasn’t until she read an Anne Rice book that she started writing
about the vampires she had loved for so long. She finally got to meet her Idol,
Anne Rice and she was everything Jodie’d hoped for and more. Christine Feehan
was the reason Jodie started dabbling in Erotica so she used her vampire
influence and wroth a few vampire erotica books. She also got to meet Ms.
Feehan and they spoke for a very long time as they realized they had many
things in common. Jodie was very excited about meeting her two idols and will
be a day she’ll never forget (they were both at the same show together).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Jodie also is CEO of an online ezine, Darkness Within which
she puts together every month. She decided as she has person history with
familial Alzheimer’s that she’d like to do a Halloween edition of the ezine and
publish it as a book instead of just an online ezine. All the proceeds from the
charity book will be donated to the Alzheimer’s Association. She is also
working closely with a friend to get a website up for the ezine so look forward
to that. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 8pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">She is happily married to the man of her dreams and has one
kitty named Pixie. She enjoys research so many things in her stories are real
with fiction in her stories. She was an exchange student in Brazil in high
school so you will find many of her influences from there. She is taking a
short break from vampires and currently working on a mental health memoir of
sorts. She hopes to help people with the book. Don’t worry though, she’s also
working on another project with vampires and the UFC but not exactly them by
name. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Bio:</div>
<div>
Hi. I’m Micalea. Ma-call-e-uh. Weird name, I know. My mom must’ve known I was going to be odd even in the womb. I’ve written a lot of books. Like a lot. Don’t ask me how many, I don’t remember at this point. I have an unhealthy addiction to Diet Coke but I can’t seem to break the habit. I listen to way too much music and hedgehogs have taken over my life. Crazy is the word that best sums up my life, but it’s the good kind of crazy and I wouldn’t change it for anything.</div>

Excerpt for When Stars Collide</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div>
We were like two stars orbiting each other—dancing around the possibility that one day we might collide. When we finally did, we opened up a black hole, obliterating everything around us. No one would be the same.</div>
<div>
Least of all, us.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Waking up in Vegas married to the guy of your dreams sounds like a good thing, right? Not when you’re Thea Montgomery and said guy is your brother’s best friend. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Thea and Xander have always avoided the connection between them because her brother would never approve. Now, they’re married— the strongest bond you can have as a couple—and they’re not even a real couple…unless they want to be.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Thea wants an annulment immediately, but Xander’s waited too long to see her become his and he won’t let her go easily.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If she wants a divorce, fine, but he wants the summer to convince her that he’s the one. If at the end of the summer she still wants to end their marriage he’ll sign the papers, but until then…</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
All is not fair in love and war.</div>
<div>

</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
I’m an eternal optimist; negativity only serves as an anchor to creativity. Hate is a four letter word.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I graduated in 2006 from Brown College with a Degree in Visual Communications (Graphic Design). In 2010, I joined a forum and started doing fan art, using my design to make art from the books I read. While there, I met authors and the idea of covers and self-published work snowballed into what I’ve built today.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I loathe socks . . . absolutely detest those suckers . . . creeping down my foot, slouching into my boots, crinkling between the toes. <shivers></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Striving for excellence, and pushing myself to always step outside of the box, is something of a hobby of mine. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But I don’t want to reach the top without a crowd of peers around me, so I look to push people to find their passions and grab hold—no matter how nauseating that might be. Lift as you climb!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My clients include: Amazon, Atria Books, Random House, Penguin Books, Skyscape, Montlake Romance, Jessica Sorensen, Gail McHugh, Cambria Hebert, Leslie Dover, Lexi Blake, Micalea Smeltzer, Amy Bartol, and hundreds more.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you hire me, my focus will be on designing you a cover with originality and significance.</div>

Courtland spent his childhood watching his mother turn tricks and bow</div>
<div>
to her abusive pimp. It taught him a lot about relationships and how</div>
<div>
never to get involved in one. When he meets sweet Adelaide, his life</div>
<div>
is forever changed. Her gentle personality has him thinking maybe his</div>
<div>
vow to never commit is misplaced. Until she disappears out of his</div>
<div>
life.</div>
<div>
Adelaide knew the only way to escape the darkness she’s lived her life</div>
<div>
in, is to go back to the one place that’s haunted her dreams. Home.</div>
<div>
Reuniting with Courtland is the last thing on her mind until she</div>
<div>
becomes helpless to his every kiss. Hopeless to his every touch. And</div>
<div>
no matter how far she tries to run, her heart is irrevocably bound to</div>
<div>
him.</div>

As for the opposite sex? They were only good for one reason.</div>
<div>
Then he meets Scarlet. Then all bets are off.</div>
<div>
One night at the lounge Scarlet becomes a witness to a crime, living proof that the MC is not as pure as they want people to believe. Dax’s grandfather wants to eliminate her and he sends someone she least expects to get the job done.</div>
<div>
Can Dax get to her in time to save her from the MC determined to destroy their future?</div>

<div>
Daniel 'The Duke' Greensboro wants nothing more than to take care of his little girl. Being a male stripper and escort made that happen. He wasn't looking for anything else. Until she moved into the apartment next door and turned his world upside down.</div>
<div>
When Moriah's financial aid is cut off, she has to find a new place to live and going home to deadbeat parents wasn't an option. Finding a posh apartment in the heart of Houston was her only choice. She didn't anticipate meeting hot, sexy-as-sin, single dad Daniel Greensboro...the neighbor across the hall. When he asks for a favor, she just can't say no. </div>
<div>
Then one night Moriah goes out with the girl's from work and they head straight for X-treme Measure. She has no idea what to expect, until she sees Daniel, heating up the stage. </div>
<div>
Seeing Moriah at X-treme Measure is shocking but it provokes him to give her just a little tease of what she could have. </div>
<div>

Sometimes you find love in all the wrong places. Every once in awhile, it's so worth it.</div>

Sarah Connelly's had a crush on Team USA Volleyball player Donovan Richards ever since she could remember. When she finally gets the chance to meet him, she never thought she'd catch him with his pants down. What's a girl to do?</div>
<div>
The intense, focused gold medalist Donovan Richards never believed in love at first sight. Until Sarah, the new sports medicine trainer, came walking in, catching him almost naked in the locker room and staring straight at his dick. </div>
<div>
Sarah is dedicated to her job, but Donovan is relentless. He goes for what he wants and that's the sexy, sassy Miss. Connelly.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Should she choose love over having the career of a lifetime? Or can she find a way to have both? Donovan certainly thinks so, because he's never giving up on her or on them. Even if it means quitting Team USA.</div>

romantic, a Harry Potter aficionado, and a supporter of all things dork.
Chocolate, Chinese food, and Asian dramas are her kryptonite. Above all, she
believes that real life has enough sorrow and despair—which is why she always
tries to give her characters a happy ending. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Adorkable</i> is her debut novel.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "Cambria","serif"; mso-bidi-font-family: Cambria; mso-fareast-font-family: Cambria;">Adorkable (ah-dor-kuh-bul): Descriptive
term meaning to be equal parts dorky and adorable. For reference, see Sally
Spitz. <br />
<br />
Seventeen-year-old Sally Spitz is done with dating. Or at least, she's done
with the horrible blind dates/hookups/sneak attacks her matchmaking bestie,
Hooker, sets her up on. There's only so much one geek girl and Gryffindor
supporter can take. <br />
<br />
Her solution: she needs a fake boyfriend. And fast. <br />
<br />
Enter Becks, soccer phenom, all-around-hottie, and Sally's best friend
practically since birth. When Sally asks Becks to be her F.B.F. (fake
boyfriend), Becks is only too happy to be used. He'd do anything for Sal--even
if that means giving her PDA lessons in his bedroom, saying she's "more than
pretty," and expertly kissing her at parties. <br />
<br />
The problem: Sally's been in love with Becks all her life--and he's completely
clueless. <br />
<br />
This book features two best friends, one special edition Yoda snuggie,
countless beneath-the-ear kisses and begs the question: <br />
<br />
Who wants a real boyfriend when faking it is so much more fun? </span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Also enter Michael’s dad, apparently he seems to be
a big thorn in Michael’s side as well, unfortunately his story sounds a bit too
much like Megan’s dad’s story which I am hoping is not the case because that
would be a bit of a bummer for me. I mean having the dad’s both have the same
kind of background would give the characters something to relate over, but I
think it’s a tad unrealistic especially in this scenario. I really don’t think
Michael would be the kind of man to agree to take someone’s daughter as payment
for a debt if he had a father just like hers, so I am really hoping I am just
wrong about this whole theory and it just sounded like it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

book and sparks fly!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<strong><u>My Thoughts</u></strong></div>
In this next installment we find out a bit more about each character. We definitely can giver her father the biggest jerk award. I mean how can someone treat their child like that? I just wanted to throw a brick at him, I mean really! When the man who is holding your daughter as payment for your debt is treating your daughter better than you, you have a serious problem!<br />We also get to dive into Megan's secrets which are pretty gnarly and a bit intense so beware. There definitely is some sensitive material for all my readers who like to have trigger warnings before they go into their reads, if you are one to avoid those kinds of reads, beware. This one contains sensitive material.<br />I liked seeing the development of these characters, Linda is a wonderful addition. The plotline is developing quite nicely and I am definitely intrigued. <br />

<strong><u>My Thoughts</u></strong></div>
<strong><u></u></strong><br />
First off let me say that I think these books need to be read together as a set, I don't think they can be read effectively as a standalone. I really feel for Megan, she has already dealt with enough crap from her piece of crap father but just when she thinks he cannot stoop any lower, he sells her off to repay his debt. In a strange place with a man who clearly only wants her for one thing, she is left to make some big decisions and decide which secrets of hers to keep.<br />
I thought the plot line was good and the steamy scenes were very sexy, but I did think that the dialogue needed some work done to it. There were also some details that needed to be carried out, some problems I found with different scenes.<br />
Overall though I will give it a strong three bats because it kept me very engaged and I am looking forward to more steamy, sizzling times between Megan and Michael.<br />

I began writing about 15 years ago as a hobby but never thought about doing it for a living. But as I completed more and more novels, I started to wonder if I could be truly good at it, to be able to keep up with so many other great authors. So, I began to slowly release them as ebooks... I still don't know the answer to my question, but I am having fun writing with the added bonus of people other than me reading my material. I also know I have to continuously strive to get better and better.</div>

Al Qaeda - The Hunt for Ali Muhammad and Al Qaeda - The Double Sword were so much fun to write. This Jack Novak series was born from all my crazy dreams as I sleep. I can't count how many times I am running down a steep mountain from a predator or maybe a raging volcano, or shooting bad guys in some dense, hot jungle, or how many high-speed car chases in the middle of some big city with way to many cars on the road I have been in. I am often more tired initially when I wake then when I went to bed from all the insanity! </div>

So, I brought them to life with Jack Novak. I wanted to create a character that was not just some Rambo, but a human being with real problems, issues, dreams, and a life. Initially, the young man is new at the game and still figuring things out as he encounters chaotic and dangerous situations. But as the series progresses, he becomes more methodical, more lethal, one crazy individual, and is always in some sort of calamity with bad guys trying to kill him. I love the action, simply because I get it almost every night! And I have a few more to write hopefully in the near future.</div>

Outside of the novels, I have written several other smaller pieces. One of them is - 'A Recipe for Permanent Weight Loss .' It is much shorter than the action stories I love to write, but I think the most important as the obesity rate in the world increases. I purposely wrote it differently than most weight loss books. I wanted to teach the reader to understand WHY they are obese before learning how to lose the weight. You have to know the rules before you can play the game. And therefore, it is the PERFECT RECIPE!</div>

<strong><u>Book Description</u></strong></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<em>The newest, highly anticipated novel from beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author, Colleen Hoover.<br /><br />Sometimes it is the one who loves you who hurts you the most.<br /><br /> Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town in Maine where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. So when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life suddenly seems almost too good to be true.<br /><br /> Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place.<br /><br /> As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened. <br /><br /> With this bold and deeply personal novel, Colleen Hoover delivers a heart-wrenching story that breaks exciting new ground for her as a writer. Combining a captivating romance with a cast of all-too-human characters, It Ends With Us is an unforgettable tale of love that comes at the ultimate price.</em></div>

<span id="freeTextreview1724673920">This book you guys, this book I cannot even put into words what this book has left me feeling. Everyone should read this book, I mean everyone even if you do not like to read, you should take the time out to sit down and read this book. I think Colleen has done something monumental here, powerful, moving, heart-wrenching, she is such a powerhouse when it comes to writing novels so I knew this one would be great, but she completely blew me out of the water with this one. Colleen sheds some powerful light on domestic violence that I think no one really takes a look at, or considers and that is truly, truly amazing. Not to mention the characters are highly dynamic and entertaining and it is so easy to fall in love with them. My favorite book of 2016 for sure, probably one of my favorite books ever. Thank you Colleen for being you</span>!</div>

<span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: "georgia" , serif;"><span style="line-height: 28px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Rock & Roll Saved My Soul was founded by Kate Marie Robbins in July of 2013 with the help of Jen Robbins, Arminta Dellow, and Sandy Ashley. It started out as a small idea to help a charity called Rock the Cause by putting together stories about how music positively impacts lives. In the end, it became so much more than that. We are now run by a team of 16, over several social media platforms. And a subpage, called The LOVE Project that focuses on loving yourself and the world. </span></span></div>

Currently we work with one author on her anthology series and are in the works to start on another series with another author, as well as one for a woman who is not an author, but feels very strongly about her cause. </span></span></div>

the only thing he had in abundance was spare time. In April, 2007 a strange
dream provided him with a way to fill some of that time…by inspiring him to
write a book.<o:p></o:p></span></span></a></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">Two years later that novel, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Living the Dream</i>, was released.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">Since then, Tim has released seven
novels, all taking place in the seaside community of Flagler Beach, the place
he now calls home. He has also written a collection of short stories based upon
his iconic and charismatic anti-hero Ike, as well as co-written two zombie
novellas.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">The rising popularity of Tim’s
work has drawn comparisons to the likes of Elmore Leonard, Tim Dorsey, Carl
Hiassen and Randy Wayne White…all of which Tim welcomes with pride.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">When he isn’t writing Tim can
be heard on Flagler Beach’s radio station Surf 97.3 FM (</span></span></span><a href="http://www.flaglerbeachradio.com/"><span style="color: blue;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">www.flaglerbeachradio.com</span></span></span><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;"></span></span></span></span></a><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">)
weekday mornings from 10:00-1:00 and Friday nights from 7:00-10:00.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">Some of the interests he has no
time for are motorcycles, scuba diving and sports of all kinds – with a special
lifelong love of the Boston Red Sox.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK1;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK2;"><span style="mso-bookmark: OLE_LINK3;">Look for Tim’s next novel, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Blood in the Water</i>, in the fall of 2016.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<em>Bo Callaghan understands his role. As the youngest brother of the clan’s alpha, his womanizing ways and zest for life has helped him live up to those lack of expectations. So when he’s asked to assist the International Shifter Coalition with an important project, it’s no surprise when he fails to deliver. Now Bo must help a mysterious human woman convince the other shifters in Alaska to get on board with the big reveal. But all Bo can focus on are her charming ways, the bright blue eyes, and the raging fire she’s ignited in his bear. <br /><br />McKenzie Parker is no stranger to shifters. A human with secrets of her own, she’s worked around them her whole life. Yet despite having a white tiger as one of her oldest friends, she is intimidated when she first meets the giant, sexy grizzly shifter with a bad reputation and an addicting smile. McKenzie’s secret skills may help her convince others what they need to do, but her attraction to Bo cannot be explained by magic. Falling hard, she worries about opening her heart and letting someone in again. Especially someone like Bo Callaghan. <br /><br /><br />*This story contains strong sexual themes, sensual shifters, and delicious romance for insatiable appetites. It is intended for a mature audience. This is a stand-alone novella with no cliff-hanger. *</em></div>

Oh my goodness! I cannot even begin to express how much I loved this book, Bo and Kenzi and my favorite pairing so far in this series. To begin with I was not a big shifter fan, but I like Ashlee Sinn so I wanted to check out this series and I am seriously addicted to it. I ate this book up. The plot line was great, the passion between Bo and Kenzi was insatiable and sizzling. I definitely recommend this book, it is HOT, HOT, HOT! Bo is so damn dreamy, makes me want a shifter of my own and that is saying something let me tell you! I couldn't put this book down so if you are looking for a book with a lot of love, suspense, and a book you will read in one sitting then this is a winner. A must read!<br />
