One More Round Update!
So I'm diligently hammering out all the words for One More Round. Gia and Simon haven't been easy for me to write, unlike Morgan and Dex, who were ready to go from the start. But the three of us are finally playing nicely and can finally see the end.

March Updates
Can we all take a moment and give Spring some words of encouragement? Make some promises, maybe even plead? I'm in Indiana and it has been snowing non-stop for almost 12 hours now. We are up to about four inches. I'm not a happy camper, folks. Not at all.
This past week I've had a blogger tour happening for the LEVEL ME UP audiobook. I've also just sent out ONE MORE ROUND to my Beta Readers, which is always a scary step in the process.
Listen to the first chapter of Level Me Up!
I've uploaded the first chapter of LEVEL ME UP onto Soundcloud. That's a whopping nine minutes. You are bound to fall in love with Lacy Gillernan as Morgan. Listen to the sample now!
One More Round has a release date!
Gamer Boy #2 will be hitting Kindles and bookshelves on May 24th! Excited? I'm so in love with Simon and Gia's story, I can't wait to share it with the world. They may have been difficult to write, but totally worth it! I hope you love their story as much as I do!

May 2018 Updates
Hello!!
Well, hello summer! You've come early. It's mid-May, and it was 90 yesterday in Indianapolis. It seems if Spring stuck around for all of about ten minutes.
So May is a big month around here. One More Round releases on the 24th (Ekkk! That's next week). I'm so freaking excited to share this novel with the world. I've gotten some early reviews, and it seems readers are loving Simon and Gia's story as much as I do.
I want to let you know that once pre-order is up, (5/21) you will be able to pre-order OMR for only $.99! What?! Yeah, that's right. (Spoiler: Level Me Up will be on sale release week as well.) But the price of OMR will change to its normal price of $3.99 on release day. Also, some news, LMU will also change to $3.99 once the sale is over.
May's Book Recommendations
I read around eight to ten books a month. Some of from traditionally published authors that I can't get enough of. But most are from self-published author's like myself. Both of the following books blew me away. They are both new releases and I while I know both authors, that has nothing to do with how much I fell in love with these two books.
The Girl Behind the Red Door - I needed a light and fun romance and The Girl Behind the Red Door was just that. I easily connected to Charlie and Reed and their witty banter was oh so enjoyable. Reed was one swoon-worthy, practically royal. The supporting cast was fun and each worthy of their own book.
Beauty and the Beefcake - Grant had the ability to create the strongest, most lovable characters I've read in a while. Felicity was as quirky as they come and beefcake Ares was ... so damn swoony without even meaning to be. The Beauty and the Beefcake was chuckle-out-loud funny and not to mention so totally sexy!
Cheers!
