The Hazards of a One Night Stand Release Day!


Today is the official release day for The Hazards of a One Night Stand! I'm so excited to share Mallory and Colton's story! Be sure to check out the Rafflecopter below to enter to win print copies of both The Hazards of Skinny Dipping and The Hazards of a One Night Stand!



One small town boy, one girl who wants more, one roll in the hay...

Hooking up with your high school crush is a bad idea, a really bad idea. It was only supposed to be one night, one brief departure from my real life, but nothing ever works out exactly the way you plan.

Colton Waters was everything from my past that didn't fit into my present, so why did he have to show up at my college and pledge the one frat I couldn't avoid?


Because nothing is ever meant to happen just once. At least not the life changing things that mean the difference between falling apart and falling in love.

Clayton Falls


I fell in love with the town of Clayton Falls as soon as I started writing about it. I loved the people, the feel, and even all the local establishments. The Clayton Falls Series is one that has stayed with me constantly, and I've missed it since finishing up Wrecked last spring.

I've been getting a lot of questions about the series lately, and I'm finally ready to answer. Yes, there will be more books in the Clayton Falls Series. :)

One of the biggest motivators of this decision (aside from all of the amazing messages and emails,I appreciate every one of them), was my experience writing The Hazards of a One Night Stand. The second book in my Hazards Series takes place primarily on a college campus, but several of the pivotal scenes take place in the hometown of the main characters. The hometown, Gasden, is in South Carolina and isn't on the coast, but it still has a similar feel to Clayton Falls. Writing about a small town, and a sexy country boy (Jake fans, I think you guys are going to love Colton), reminded me of how much more of the Clayton Falls story I need to tell.

I have two more books in the Clayton Falls Series outlined, so stay tuned for updates over the next few months. Also, if you're looking for Brody (Gavin's brother), you can find him in the pages of the Mixology Series (Shaken Not Stirred is book one).

Thanks to everyone who's visited Clayton Falls. I can't wait to share more of the series with you, and I hope you decide to visit The Hazards and Mixology worlds as well. :)

Hazards ONS Teaser #3


Hey everyone! There's only ten days until The Hazards of a One Nigh Stand release. I thought I'd share some more Mallory and Colton with you.

Colt wrapped an arm around my waist and pulled me closer. “No. I’d rather bother you.”
There was something kind of sexy about the motion, something more confident than his usual goofy flirting. His hand felt nice resting on my hip, so I let it stay. Was this really the same Colt? Since when did his touch have that kind of effect on me? “When did you get back to town?”
“About two hours ago.”
“You didn’t wait long to come out.” I took a big sip of the drink. It was starting to taste a lot better.
“I took time for a shower.”
“That was thoughtful of you.”
“Planning on getting close to me tonight?” He watched me intently.
“Maybe.” The flirtatious word flew out of my mouth without me realizing it. The alcohol and that smile of his was making me forget where I was. “Sorry.”
“Why are you sorry?” He moved his hand, turning me and wrapping his other arm around me so my body was pressed against his.
“Colton…”
“Mallory…”
I laughed. “What are you doing?”
“What am I doing? You’re the one telling me you might be getting close to me tonight.” His hand slid down slightly, settling below my hip. His touch felt so good.
“Your birthday passed, right? You’re nineteen now?”
He laughed that deep, throaty laugh of his. “I’m going to take it as a good sign that you’re checking to make sure I’m old enough.”
“I’m not supposed to be into younger guys.”
“I’m three months younger than you. I can’t help that my parents held me back a grade.” He leaned back against an old oak tree, pulling me along with him. The motion had me leaning into his chest.
“You’ve gotten hotter.” I couldn’t believe I’d said the words out loud. I also couldn’t believe I was thinking about Colton that way again.
He laughed once more. “So have you, although I wouldn’t have thought it was possible.”
I took another sip of my drink. “When did you get this cute?”
“Are you implying you haven’t been ready to jump me for the last five years?”
“I’ve never thought about it before tonight.” The words weren’t exactly true, but I hadn’t thought about it in a while.
“But you are thinking about it now?” He grinned, moving his hands even lower so they cradled my ass.
“Maybe.” His hands sent a thrill through me, reminding me of just how long it had been since a guy had touched me that way.
“That’s the second maybe you’ve given me. How am I supposed to make that into a yes?” He took the bottle from my hand and dropped it down on the ground next to his empty cup. The remaining liquid seeped out onto the dirt.
“I don’t know. It’s your job to figure that out.” I ran my now free hand down his chest. It was firmer and more muscular than I expected.
“My job, huh? I like the sound of that.” His lips tickled my ear. “I like the sound of anything involving you.” He took my hand and led me further into the grouping of trees. It wasn’t a dense forest or anything, but I knew he was looking for privacy. I didn’t object when he gently leaned me back into another tree.
I closed my eyes, ready to feel his lips and hands on my body. I was horrible at knowing what to do in those situations. I needed the guy to take control.
His lips brushed against mine as he rested his hand on my stomach. He slipped a few fingers underneath my shirt. “Am I earning a yes, or do I have more work to do?” he whispered with his lips right next to mine.
“You have more work.” I kept my eyes closed, taking in a breath as his hand moved further up my shirt.

Cover Reveal: Kissing Eden by T.A. Foster!

Hey guys! I'm excited to help reveal the cover of T.A. Foster's next NA Contemporary Romance, Kissing Eden. I was lucky enough to read this one early, and it's a fun and flirty read that's perfect for the beach! :)





Have you ever thought of taking a vacation alone? I mean step on a plane, check into your hotel, and lie on the beach completely and utterly alone. No? Me either, but then right before senior spring break I got dumped.
Something about break ups makes you do things you didn’t want to do, and try things you didn’t know you were capable of.

That’s how I ended up at the Palm Palace.
That’s how I met Grey.
That’s how my spring break turned into the most unforgettable week of my life.
