All My Ducks are in a Row

Posted on February 27, 2015 11:10 pm by Karen Comment

It has only taken me 48 Hours to switch over my blog from Blogger to my own domain. With the changes Blogger wanted to make, I decided, I didn’t want to have anyone’s restrictions of what I put on my blog. Since I do not make any money from this site, me putting an occasional photo up on my site that may or may not be “appropriate” but some won’t be a big deal. If a cover shows a little too much boob or too much crack, I don’t care.

So now I have my own domain. It is a .net rather than a .com, but don’t worry, I have that domain too, so if you enter it wrong, you will still find my site. If you accidently click my old Blogger address, don’t worry, you will be redirected to this one. I imported all of my old blog posts over to here too. I am so happy. It even looks better here in WordPress then it did in Blogger.

Yes, it cost me to have two domains, but the customer support from Go Daddy! made it worthwhile! I have 24/7 support with a real live English speaking person within seconds. And they are helpful!!! Yeah, I know, it is unheard of!

Anyway, it is time for me to go to bed. I am starting to feel under the weather.

The Hurricane by R. J. Prescott

Posted on February 27, 2015 12:00 am by Karen 3 Comments

Emily McCarthy is living in fear of a dark and dangerous past. A gifted mathematician, she is little more than a hollow, broken shell, trying desperately to make ends meet long enough to finish her degree.

Through an unlikely friendship with the aging, cantankerous owner of an old boxing gym, Em is thrown into the path of the most dangerous man that she has ever met.

Cormac “the Hurricane” O’Connell is cut, tattooed and dangerous. He is a lethal weapon with no safety and everyone is waiting for the mis-fire. He’s never been knocked out before, but when he meet Em he falls, HARD. Unlike any other girl he’s ever met, she doesn’t want anything from him, but just being around her makes him want to be a better person.

They are polar opposites who were never meant to find each other, but some things are just worth the fight.

What can I say about this book but that it was a TKO!!! There is nothing about this book that I did not like. I admire Emily for her strength and courage. If I were her, I would have crawled in a hole and died. Cormac, omg, hotness!!! Big, Bad and teddy bear at heart. Total Book Boyfriend material. The two heat up the pages while they heal each other and bring out the best in each other.

Totally a 5 Heart Book!

Amazon | B&N | Kobo | iBooks

I was born in Cardiff, South Wales although I left to study law at the University of Bristol, England. Four weeks before graduation I fell in love, and stayed. Ten years later I convinced my crazy, wonderful fire fighter husband to move back to Cardiff with me where we live with our two equally crazy sons. Juggling work, writing and family doesn’t leave a lot of time, but curling up on the sofa with a cup of tea and a bar of chocolate for family movie night is definitely the best part of my week. “The Hurricane” is my debut New Adult Novel.

Surf & Surrender Blitz

Posted on February 26, 2015 11:30 pm by Karen Comment

She wants to forget he ever existed. He’d never give up her memory.

Quinn Westwood is completely over Sawyer Carson. He broke her heart years ago and disappeared from her life without a word. So yeah. She’s over him. Never even thinks of him. In fact, she’s spending her college summer break surfing and lifeguarding in the Outer Banks, while nursing a bruised heart from a different relationship gone wrong. She doesn’t have room in her mind or heart for Sawyer—until she runs into him at a beach bonfire and the sparks that fly between them are way hotter than the flames heating the sand.

Sawyer never got over Quinn. The only thing stronger than what he feels for her is the secret keeping them apart, but sharing it would destroy more than just his life—it’d ruin hers, as well. Still, he can’t seem to keep away from her, can’t seem to keep his hands off of her soft, tempting skin. Especially since she has even less self-control when it comes to reigniting the physical side of what made them perfect together.

But secrets have a way of slipping out, and when Sawyer’s is revealed it threatens to shatter everyone involved. He’ll have to face walking away a second time, and Quinn will have to decide if fighting for him is worth it when the fallout could affect more than just her heart, but also those of the people she loves most.

Surf & Surrender is the second book in Riley Edgewood’s Summer Love series, but can be read as a stand-alone novel.

Amazon | B&N | iBooks | Kobo

Riley lives in the DC area and spends most of her time with her characters, playing with her toddler and husband, and pretending she knows how to be an adult. Former dancer. Current writer. Lifelong lover of accessories, books, and the beach. And cats. Can’t forget the kitties. Of which she has two.

Carolina Hurricane Blitz

Posted on February 26, 2015 12:02 am by Karen Comment

I was standing in the middle of nowhere with no real destination in mind. There was only the dire need to disappear from Charleston. With my head tilted up to the gray sky and my eyes closed, I let the light droplets of rain fall onto my face. I’d reached a crossroads in my life and was trying to find a reason to keep going. I had no idea a hurricane was coming and fate would choose that moment for our paths to cross.

“Hey! You okay?” A voice called out to me in a deep southern drawl, pulling me out of my fog. “Can I give you a ride somewhere?”
I opened my eyes and found a pair of intense blue eyes staring back at me. His name was Fox. He had an irresistibly sexy grin, and judging by his fast car, a need for speed. His timing couldn’t have been more perfect. I was looking to start a little trouble, since it was what I did best and he seemed like a good target. After sharing an incredible night together, I quickly learned that Fox was more than he appeared and full of delicious surprises. He gifted my body with unbelievable pleasures and unlocked emotions that I’d wanted to keep hidden. When I pushed him away, he left claiming a piece of my soul.

I never imagined that getting into his car that day would start a transformation within me and forever change the course of my life. Fox challenged every rule I’d ever made by tearing down the carefully constructed barriers around my heart. I never intended to fall in love with him but how could I resist a man who was so different than I’d expected and more than I ever deserved? The grayness in my life caused by loss and betrayal was waging a storm within me; Fox was the anchor I needed to stop the inner turmoil and bring me back into the light.

**Carolina Hurricane is the first book in the Drive Me Wild- Love in Fast Lane Novellas series**
