The Refrain by Ashley Pullo

If I refuse to believe that this book is over, is it really over?

If I tell the author that she needs to go back to the drawing board just so I can get her to write more about these characters, is that cruel?

If I send this book to every single person I know, will we form a support group for all things Zach Attack?

If I manage to 'get' science and create a time-machine, will someone make sure I go back to the exact moment I heard about this author and make sure I have her promise not to annihilate my heart?

It's been three days, and I'm not even remotely over The Refrain. I've cried some really ugly tears because of this real, honest, stunning, heartbreakingly beautiful story. I'm having a really tough time letting go. It's kind of like your one true love. It changes you. It makes you whole. And it will consume you.

Always.

K.A. Tucker's Secret Announcement

In Her WakeFans of K.A. Tucker's Ten Tiny Breaths, we have a SUPER exciting announcement....

On September 1, 2014, Atria is releasing a PREQUEL NOVELLA to Ten Tiny Breaths that tells the story from Trent's point of view! It's called IN HER WAKE, and we cannot wait one more breath to read it! 

About IN HER WAKE: Cole Reynolds had it all. And then one night he makes a bad choice... and loses everything. When a drunken night out at a Michigan State college party results in the death of six people, Cole must come to terms with his part in the tragedy. Normally, he'd be able to lean on his best friends. The best friends that have been in his life since he could barely walk. Only, they're gone. Worse, there's the shattered body of a sixteen-year-old girl lying somewhere in a hospital bed, her entire life ripped from her because of a case of beer and a set of keys. Everyone assures him that they know it wasn't intentional and yet he can't ignore the weight of their gazes, the whispers behind his back. The all-consuming guilt he feels every time he thinks of that girl who won't so much as allow him near her hospital room to apologize. As the months go by and the shame and loneliness festers, Cole begins to lose his grip of what once was important-college, his girlfriend, his future. His life. It's not until Cole hits rock-bottom that he can begin to see another way out of his personal hell: forgiveness. And there's only one person who can give that to him... Are you as excited about this as we are?? And...this is going to be available at the great price of $.99!!



Four Secondsto Lose
And while you're at it, pre-order the gorgeous paperback of FOUR SECONDS TO LOSE, hitting bookstores on 4/1!


About FOUR SECONDS TO LOSE: Owning a strip club isn’t the fantasy most guys expect it to be. With long hours, a staff with enough issues to keep a psych ward in business, and the police regularly on his case, twenty-nine year old Cain is starting to second guess his unspoken mission to save the women he employs. And then blond, brown-eyed Charlie Rourke walks through his door, and things get really complicated. Cain abides by a strict “no sleeping with the staff” rule. But being around Charlie challenges Cain’s self-control…and it’s been a long time since any woman has done that. Twenty-two-year old Charlie Rourke needs a lot of money, really fast, in order to vanish before it’s too late. Taking her clothes off for men makes her stomach curl but Charlie tells herself that at least she’s putting her acting anddancing skills to good use. And though her fellow dancers seem eager to nab their sexy, sophisticated, and genuinely caring boss, she’s not interested. After all, Charlie Rourke doesn’t really exist—and the girl pretending to be her doesn’t need to complicate her life with romance. Unfortunately, Charlie soon discovers that developing feelings for Cain is inevitable, that those feelings may not be unrequited—but losing him when he finds out what she’s involved with will be more painful than any other sentence awaiting her.

Violet lives in Hawai'i with her two cute kids and similarly adorable husband.






Karen Erickson Author PicUSA Today Bestselling Author Karen Erickson lives in central California with her husband, three kids, one dog and too many cats.

She's married to the man of her dreams, and together they're raising a few adorable, mischievous children in a tree house in the boonies. She grew up in rural Arkansas, spending summers running wild, being chewed by chiggers, and now appreciates her home in a chigger-free part of the world even more. When she's not writing, Jessie enjoys playing her dulcimer (badly), sewing the worlds ugliest quilts to give to her friends, going for bike rides with her house full of boys, and wandering the woods, glass of wine and camera both in hand, on the lookout for Bigfoot. A southern girl, born and bred, Jessie loves writing Southern romances with just the right amount of sizzle, and hopes you'll enjoy her stories set in the fictional town of Summerville, Georgia. Especially the "Always a Bridesmaid" series!

She lives in rural Indiana, where, when she’s not writing, she gets to hang out with her husband and two kids--a six-year-old boy and a two-year-old hellion, er, girl. Not surprisingly, reading and writing remain her favorite activities, though both come in bits and pieces these days, not the big hunks of time she enjoyed before she had children. When she’s feeling virtuous, she likes to go running (She uses that word liberally. She’s really, really slow) or do yoga. Don't worry, she’s always careful to balance out such activities with a hearty serving of ice cream or a chocolate martini.
