To be continued

So, I finally finished writing my 10th book - Releasing Rhythm; my last guy in JINKS. It's a bitter sweet moment, knowing I've given all my guys my all. I put their words down on "paper." I told their stories through me. Yeah, I created them from some where deep inside me and made them who they are today. It's crazy to think over 2 years ago they weren't even born. They didn't even exist until late 2014. I never thought they would become a part of me. But they have. They're deep inside my heart, because each guy has a little bit of me inside them - if that makes any crazy sense.
Jason was my last. My dark horse. My fighter. The one who pushed away the true love of his life. The one who fought many demons to finally live a life with love. Gah! I love him.
Anyway, now that I have told their stories, Forever Faith will be almost like their swan song. A farewell tribute. The book will be in Lucky's and Faith's POV's. The ones who started it all for me. I'll be writing it sometime next year.
As for now, RICO is happening. He was in my second book, Purple Rain, for a brief moment. No one even knew what he looked like, not until Releasing Rhythm. You'll get a taste of him, finally. But...I don't even know where to start with his story. He's another dark horse, but a smooth, hot, controlled dark horse. He's going to drive me crazy lol. I'll need to take a break to figure him out, because like I always do, I figure things out as I write.
Wish me luck!

Top 10 of 2016

Choosing my top 10 of 2016 is and was NOT an easy task to do. I've read so many amazing books this year by good friends of mine, and people I've never talked to. This doesn't mean your books didn't touch me. I'm just giving you some of the ones that stood out to me this past year and I cannot wait to continue my reading for the year 2017.
Thank you authors/friends for giving me the gift of such amazing stories. You're all so fucking talented and creative! Keep up the wonderful work! I am so grateful to be surrounded by books. It's a passion I'll never stop doing. Ever.
Happy New Year!
PS: my top 10 is in no particular order.

Reckless Abandon by Teri Kay

I am very proud of my good friend Teri Kay. Anytime someone writes a book is putting their heart and soul into their words and exposing themselves for others' to critique/judge - or just plain fall in love with the story. It's definitely nerve wracking - been there almost 9 books.
October 11th 2016 is Teri Kay's Release Day for Reckless Abandon. I got the pleasure/honor of reading RA before it was even edited. I gave my advice and tried my best to help Teri along the way. Now that RA is all done, the edits are wonderful and the story is even better than before. I just finished it last night and was so pleased with it. Seriously, it's a story that I haven't really read before and I cannot wait to see what Teri does with all the other characters' (well I kind of already know the "storylines" of some of these characters ;) )
You can purchase Reckless Abandon HERE And you can come to Teri's release party HERE .. I am one of the authors that will be doing a takeover.
Hope to see you there!

Ryann McKennan never imagined herself divorced and broke at thirty...

Tired of struggling to make ends meet each month, she considers moving back to California to live with her mother. That was until her best friend convinces her to come work at The Cave, the hottest strip club in all of Las Vegas. Ryann knows that she was chancing the ruin of her teaching career if she were to get caught. The plan was to work at The Cave for the summer to make some extra cash...so falling for a guy, let alone two, was never in the cards.

Nathan Sims, a professional poker player and a regular at The Cave, has always had a taste for strip clubs, but he swore off strippers after his ex-girlfriend burned him.

But from the first moment he laid eyes on the never seen before blonde beauty, he was instantly infatuated.
Who was she?
Why did she always look different?
Who was she hiding from?
The more Nathan tries to find out who Ryann is, the more she tries to hide.

Both scared as hell to let their guards down, they dance silently toward one another, but both afraid to fall. Could this be their summer of Reckless Abandon?
