Thanks so much, Mrs. Snark, for having me. I'll give away a FREE
eBook to one commenter.
BIO:
Kelly's been known to say that she gets her ideas from
everyone and everything around her, and that there's always a book playing out
in her head. No one who knows her bats an eyelash when she talks to herself.
She began her writing career in the Indie market, becoming
the recipient of an Editor's Choice Award, a Finalist in the 2008 Best Book
Awards, and a Finalist in the 2009 Indie
Excellence Awards before moving into traditional publishing.
Her books not only have honors from the top review sites, but from NY Times
bestsellers too. She is a respected reviewer and a Romance Writers of America
member.
Kelly's interests include: sappy movies, MLB, NFL, driving
others insane, and sleeping when she can. She is a closet caffeine junkie and
chocoholic, but don't tell anyone. She resides in Wisconsin
with her husband, Darren, three sons, Logan, Evan, & Ethan, and her black
lab, Willow.
Most of her family lives in the Carolinas, so
she spends a lot of time there as well.
BLURB:
In her dreams, a ghost demands to be heard...
Once plagued by mysterious nightmares, Trisha Eaton always
chalked them up to childish nuisances--until they return with a vengeance.
Something about the Drake house next door haunts her, and now her night terrors
and sleepwalking seem to be luring her to something dark. After a series of
strange events, Trisha turns to Nick Mackey. As the new deputy in town, Nick
wants to forget his traumatic past. His undeniable attraction for Trisha has
him wondering if a shot at a normal life is possible. But Trisha has somehow
struck a nerve in their small, superstitious town, and a long-buried secret
threatens to surface again. A secret that someone will kill to keep veiled.
Answers only lead to more questions in a case where nothing makes sense, but
one chilling fact remains...some nightmares are all too real.
EXCERPT:
Her voice
was inviting when she wasn’t mad at him. Like hot cocoa on a frigid day.
“You should
smile more often,” he claimed quietly, glancing ahead at the orchard
approaching.
She halted
abruptly and tilted her head as if contemplating how to respond. “I smile all
the time,” she said. No hint of irritation now.
Clearing
his throat, he said, “I meant at me. You should smile like that more often at
me.”
He couldn’t
believe he said it. There was a very long awkward silence as she studied him,
brown eyes widened. Talk about feeling like an idiot. Finally, she let out a
laugh, smooth and rich from someone so small. She wove her arm through his
affectionately like he’d seen her do with others and kept walking.
“Give me a
reason to smile and I just might.”
“I’ll take it into consideration,”
he mumbled. He already had. From the first moment he walked into her house
tonight, he’d been considering her. Before,really, but why argue semantics.
Thanks again for having me. We'll see who pops in. I'll announce a winniner tomorrow! xo
