It’s one day until Rainbow Con 2014, and I couldn’t be more excited! This is the first event I will be attending as an author since the release of my debut novel Touch Me Gently in 2010. Nervousness is mixed in with the excitement as I am not a huge fan of public speaking or appearances. But I soldier on as I am looking forward to meeting some of my readers and sharing in a few days of being around other authorly-types like me.
The road to this very moment has been a four year whirlwind. While I had a one year period of no new releases being made available due to personal reasons, I still like to hope my readers are anticipating my newest novel Forgiving Thayne. It is the follow up to Chasing Seth, but focuses around the brother of Kasey Whitedove, Thayne, and Nick, the brash, smart-mouthed best friend of Seth. As the fans of my novel Chasing Seth may remember Nick encountered his true mate Thayne one night and Thayne immediately rejected him. First, it was due to Thayne’s assumption Nick was a Created One, but even after it was revealed Nick was in fact a true wolf, Thayne still refused to accept the other as his mate.
A lot of my readers have been clamoring for this follow up, and I truly hope I do not disappoint. It is fraught with angst and tense with restrained lust. A mistake made in the heat of the moment leaves Thayne scrambling to find a solution to his problems only to be forced to enlist Nick’s help, a help he desperately doesn’t want to need. Since I only just received the acceptance from Dreamspinner Press a couple of weeks ago, I do not have a cover to share with you as of yet, but I did have a friend of mine do a little bit of a manipulation with Photoshop to create an image to share with you all. I think it came out very hot and sexy!
With that said, for those of you joining me at Rainbow Con I hope you have a chance to stop by my swag table and pick up some of the items I have on offer there! There are key chains, pens, and more! For those unable to attend, I am including a prize package for those who comment on this blog post and tell me their favorite quote from any of my books. Prize package will include some, if not all of the items I am giving away. There is no restriction on country as I am willing to ship to anywhere in the world. :) I know how disappointing that can be when an author restricts physical items to US only! So feel free to join in on the contest and tell me your favorite quote from either of my books. It can be something funny, heartbreaking, sweet, or just plain striking!
THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED
Thank you to everyone who has been with me on my journey and I hope you will continue to take the ride with me because I plan to keep on gaining momentum!
Kisses,
J.R.
