Who was stupid enough to schedule a conference and a new release at the same time?

LATEST NEWS & UPDATE:


First things first - I have a new book out - did you hear? My last newsletter stats were down cause of a behind-the-scenes snafu that meant not everyone got to hear about Raffi and Tori.


If you haven't already downloaded your copy of Lighting the Lamp, you can do it now. It's live and available in Kindle Unlimited!

I haven't really done much with my poor release yet because this bright spark scheduled it at the same time she was running an inaugural author conference, so I was completely out of pocket and no where near the internet until I got back late Tuesday.


I should probably advertise that, right? My bad.


Thankfully, a new release is for life, not just for release day, right? RIGHT? Please say I'm right because Raffi and Tori deserve their moment in the limelight. I love this book so much.


For those of you curious about my conference, or for those authors on my list, the first ever Author Sustainability Conference was a raving success and we're already making 2025 plans.

What a delicious bunch of authors, amirite?

Can anyone see anyone they know?

I gave the keynote speech and made myself, and everyone else cry. Obvs.

And then my friends took me out for an early birthday dinner (Feb 13th is my actual birthday) and our exceptional server tried to spell my name all by himself.

Conference plans are in full flow for 2025, but I can tell you something for nothing - I won't be releasing a book at the same time, because fuck that noise LOL!!


Jagger and Talia are still in edits with Editor Jess and the plot for Penelope and Tate has started to tickle my grey matter, I've also started back into the Why Choose hockey romance co-write with Melissa Ivers, as well as not one, but two novellas that will be released over the summer.


It's going to be a jam-packed year, but I'm ready for it. Are you?


If my edits are back from Protocol book 2, Obey, by the time I send my next email... maybe I'll give you a little teaser...


For now, though, here's their blurb:


Jagger


I don't mess with vanilla girls.

Especially not ones as innocent as Talia. But when a snowstorm traps us at Club Protocol, I break my own rules.

It's supposed to be simple revenge against my college rival. But her eager innocence stirs my dominant nature, and I can't resist inviting her into my world of kink and ecstasy. The way she blossoms under my command stirs up feelings I'm not used to, and revenge is a distant memory.


Talia


I used to be an eternal optimist.

Now I'm stuck in a BDSM club with the world’s biggest grumpasaurus. Snow is piling up outside, and all I've got are fresh wounds from a breakup with my cheating high school sweetheart, and a sexy bucket list I'd planned on checking off with him.

When Jagger offers to show me the ropes, I’m wary. But we aren't going anywhere fast, and I'm intrigued by his promises of pleasure and pain. If I give in, could it be the start of something beautiful? Or will it destroy my optimism forever?


Get snowed in with this red-hot, forced proximity erotic romance where opposites attract and feelings ignite.


Pre-order, now!

Until next time,

Justin

I thought I’d left my past in Minnesota when I moved to Iowa, but it was right there waiting for me.

Long blonde hair, curves in all the right places, and a death glare that hits harder than a slap shot to the solar plexus. On the ice, I’m a pro at blocking shots, but Savannah Bowen has slipped behind all my defenses and made a home in my heart.

I had no intention of revisiting the past, but when she’s damn near everywhere I go, I’m a goner.


Savannah

Hell freakin’ no.

It doesn’t matter that Justin Ashe is seven feet tall and sexy as sin, or that I’ve had a crush on him for years. He cheated on my best friend in high school, and that makes him off limits.

I can’t be with him, but damn, it’s impossible to stay away from him. Girl Code says uteruses before duderuses.

He’s supposed to be my enemy, but the more I see of him, the blurrier the lines get.

Bookish. Bold. Beautiful. And entirely out of his league.


On paper, all-American boy next door, Lincoln Scott, has it all. But behind his slap shots, straight-A report card, and easy going charm, Linc hides a secret only his best friend knows.


When he attempts to return a misplaced bra, a wrong number gets him way more than the hook-up he bargained for. No one has ever looked beyond the star hockey player, until the mysterious woman he can’t stop texting sees him for who he really is.


Does Linc have the skills off the ice to keep up with her? Will he follow in his father’s footsteps? Or will he step out from the shadows and chase his dreams?
