MOM.
WIFE. AUTHOR.
Lover
of all things sexy and happily ever after.
I
live outside Washington, DC with my family: my husband (who doesn’t mind my
collection of book boyfriends), an independent toddler, and an English bulldog
named Britta who loves to be a conversation piece. Oh, we have a baby on the
way—arriving about the same time as WINTERS HEAT debuts!
I
love southern food, listen to country music, am always too hot or too cold, and
spend hours reading and writing. I cheer on my University of Louisville
Cardinals-GO CARDS! When I’m not pregnant (or nursing), I like a little bourbon
or sweet wine. Pregnant or not, I love a lot of chocolate.
I
can’t save the world, so instead, I write about those that do. There’s a
special place in my heart for those who keep us safe. My Titan series debuts
this fall with five titles available in 2013: WINTERS HEAT, GARRISON’S CREED,
WESTIN’S CHASE, CHASED, and GAMBLED.
ABOUT THE BOOK
After putting her life on the line to protect classified
intelligence, military psychologist Mia Kensington is on a cross-country road
trip from hell with an intrusive save-the-day hero. Uninterested in his white
knight act, she’d rather take her chances without the ruggedly handsome,
cold-blooded operative who boasts an alpha complex and too many guns.
Colby Winters, an elite member of The Titan Group, has a single
objective on his black ops mission: recover a document important to national
security. It was supposed to be an easy in-and-out operation. But now, by any
means necessary becomes a survival mantra when he faces off with a stunning
woman he can’t leave behind.
When Titan’s safe houses are compromised, Colby stashes Mia at his
home, exposing his secret—he’s the adoptive father of an orphaned baby girl.
Too soon, danger arrives and Mia lands in the hands of a sadistic cartel king
with a taste for torture. As hours bleed into fear-drenched days, Colby races
across the globe and through a firestorm of bullets to save the woman he can’t
live without.
AN EXCERPT
She smelled like vanilla and sugar,
even after the hell she’d been through that day. Her soft hair brushed up
against his bare bicep. Unsettled need prickled down his neck. His throat
tightened, and fire ran to his groin.
“Mia…” Distraction and anticipation
stole words from his lips.
His heart pounded loud in his chest,
fighting for his attention. With each flutter of her eyelashes and innocent
movement against his skin, his tension spiked. It was shocking. He was on the
job. There was no time for distraction. Losing control was unheard of.
Unacceptable.
His arm was cemented around her
shoulder, and it wasn’t moving. He stared as the broken white lines on the
highway passed in quick revolutions, one right after another. The hum of the
truck’s engine poked at his concentration.
He needed to get out of this truck.
He needed cool, fresh air to cover him. Right now. Deep, mind-clearing breaths
were in order as soon as possible. Anything to get his disciplined mind back to
what it did best—analyze, act, accomplish.
Winters made a sharp exit off the
highway onto an unlit ramp. He jammed on the brakes. Gravel spit from under the
truck. The back end skidded and fishtailed before it came to a stop. His heart
thumped. His throat tightened. The faint scent of burned rubber filtered into
the pickup cab.
Oh, what the hell. No way was he getting out of this
truck.
