New Adult Contemporary Romance
Release June 2, 2014
Fall to You is the second book in the Here and Now series. It is not a stand-alone and is intended to be read following Lost in Me. Hanna’s story concludes in book three, All for This.
Torn between two men…
When I woke up after the accident, I couldn’t remember anything from the last year—including my relationship with Max Hallowell or anything about Nate Crane. Now my memories are returning, but instead of answering my questions, they’re leaving me with more.
The man who broke my heart and wants to be my future…
Max is all I ever wanted, and now he wants to marry me. He’ll do everything he can to fill my life with love, family, and security. I need those things now more than ever. But can I trust him?
The man who stole my heart and wants to let me go…
Nate never made me promises, and I never asked him to. I’d been on the rebound, looking for a distraction, and he made me feel beautiful and wanted when I needed to feel those things most. He says he has to let me go, but what if I can’t let go of him?
With every revelation and every passing day, I feel more like Alice down the rabbit hole. I’m falling. Who will catch me?
IN THE SERIES
Once a college English professor, I now write full time. I live in rural Indiana, where, when I'm not writing, I get to hang out with my husband and two kids--a six-year-old boy and a two-year-old hellion, er, girl. Not surprisingly, reading and writing remain my favorite activities, though both come in bits and pieces these days, not the big hunks of time I enjoyed before I had children. When I'm feeling virtuous, I like to go running (I use that word liberally. I'm really, really slow) or do yoga. Don't worry, I'm always careful to balance out such activities with a hearty serving of ice cream or a chocolate martini.
GUEST POST
What If You Had to Choose?: Why I Heart Love
Triangles
I am so incredibly lucky. I get to spend my days
writing down the stories in my head—pretty much my favorite thing to do—and
then people read them and write me to let me know what they thought. After Lost in Me, Book 1 of the Here and Now
Series, released, the comment I heard the most was some variation of, “I
usually hate love triangles, but…” To
say I made you enjoy a trope that you usually dislike, is a huge compliment, so
thank you!
But personally? I freaking FLOVE love triangles! I’m
addicted. My favorite movies and books all seem to be love triangles. Sometimes
the “better guy” is obvious and sometimes he’s not. Sometimes there’s a love
triangle and the third party isn’t even around—maybe he’s dead or overseas—but
that doesn’t change the heart of what makes a love triangle story work.
Here are a few of my favorite love triangle
movies:
While You
Were Sleeping? How can you resist the whole forbidden chemistry with the
(supposed) fiancé’s brother? The conflict is built in and everyone loves Jack
and wants her to end up with him, but he’s such a freaking good guy, he’s not
going to do anything to get in the way of what he thinks she wants.
She asks, “Can you give me any reason why I shouldn't marry your brother?”
And my heart just tears into two when he says, “Oh... I can't.”
Love Actually?
If there’s a scene that inspires belly butterflies more than the scene
where he comes to the door with those signs, I haven’t seen it! The
selflessness of the guy who lets go so the girl can move on is super hot. If
you haven’t seen it, here’s what the signs say:
With any luck, by next year - I'll be going out with one of these girls. [shows pictures of hot models] But for now, let me say - Without hope or agenda - Just because it's Christmas - And at Christmas you tell the truth - To me, you are perfect - And my wasted heart will love you - Until you look like this. [shows picture of a mummy] Merry Christmas.
And come on…Twilight?
That whole series was 400-times more addictive because of the whole
Bella-Edward-Jacob thing. (And, confession, I was totally Team Jacob, but
that’s a post for another day.)
Two amazing guys in love with the heroine? Yes,
please.
All of the naughty forbidden chemistry? Yes,
please.
The angsty gut tugging of not knowing how she’s
going to choose? Yeah. I’m all over that.
So…love triangles. Love ’em or hate ’em?
