Rockstars, Familiar Friends, and Exciting Opportunities
Dear Readers,
I'm sitting in one of my favorite coffee shops on this unusually rainy afternoon (that's an Arizona winter for you) and decided a short break was in order - and a blog post too!
I am over the moon excited about what I've been writing this winter and I want to share with you! I've taken a little publishing hiatus since Caught in the Flames, there were a few charity anthology projects, and of course family in between, but I swear it will all be worth it this summer.
Let's talk about Trent Donavan first.
The lead singer to Three Ugly Guys kicks off a new series of rockstar bad boys with my first release of the year. DETOUR, book one in the Off Track Records series releases June 30, 2017. Trent's got a filthy mouth but a heart of gold and meets his match in a feisty little blonde when she joins the summer tour. I promise you humor, heat, and a happy ever after. Look for the cover and synopsis in the coming months, but until then you can add to your Goodreads here.
This June will be my two year publishing anniversary so I thought it'd be appropriate to take things back to the couples who started my entire author adventure. On June 30, 2017 we get to take a walk down the aisle with Evie and Tate in Uncovering Love: The Wedding. This isn't a full size novel, but also longer than most novellas (it's a little over half the size of Uncovering Love). This is story has been in my head for awhile now and it's been like coming home to finally write it. You will laugh, you might shed a few happy tears, but I promise you'll be entertained. This book is my thank you to my readers who have supported me over these past two years. Add to Goodreads here.
That's two books, but that's not all! I have the exciting news to share that a full length new standalone romcom/contemporary romance of mine will be included in a special boxed set this September! Preorders will be coming soon and as soon as they are available I'll share. This collection is going to be BIG. Twenty plus full length books, most new and never before published by a talented group of authors. All of these books guarantee hot, steamy romance. Eeep! I cannot wait!
Who knows... I may even publish another book for you before the end of the 2017. I hear some of you are waiting, not so patiently, for the follow up to Caught in the Flames! Caught in the Lies is in the works and I'll be typing my fingers off to get it to you late 2017/early 2018.
Much love,
Kacey
Don't forget all of my full length published titles are available to read for free in KindleUnlimited!

My beautiful readers,
I am thrilled to reveal the cover for Detour today! This book kicks off a new series for me and I hope you’re ready for these naughty rock stars and the women that bring them to their knees. If you’ve read the Uncovering Love series, then you’ve already met the Three Ugly Guys. This series picks up with the band as they navigate fame and success, and find a little love in the process. Front man, Trent Donavan, is up first and Detour packs the heat, heart, and funny too, in this full length contemporary romance.
Now let’s talk about the good stuff. To celebrate I’m giving away a $50 Amazon gift card, signed paperback of Detour, and special swag pack. There’s several ways to enter, and you only select the ones you like best. As my dad always says, someone’s gotta win! Entry can be found on my website at www.kaceysheabooks.com. While you’re there you can read the first three chapters of Detour before it goes live on June 1st.
Finally, Detour is my first book to release exclusively for Amazon Kindle. What does this mean for you? If you are a KindleUnlimited subscriber, you will be able to read Detour for free when it releases. If not, you will only be able to purchase the ebook version via Kindle. Paperbacks will be available both on Amazon or signed copies can be purchased on my website.
So how about an inside look at life on the road with Three Ugly Guys from Lexi Marx…
Sean tilts his head. “What did you smoke last night, Iz?”
“Fuck, I dun’nut even know.” He opens and closes his mouth wide as if that will somehow help his words come out better.
“Iz, that stuff’s gonna kill you,” I say, more than a little worried.
He meets my stare with an unfocused gaze, but his speech is better when he finally talks. “Don’cha worry ’bout me. I’m just fine. Been doin’ worse for years.” He laughs again, this time louder, and saunters down the short hallway to the bathroom. Moments later the shower clicks on.
“Should someone check on him? He okay in there alone?” I glance at Austin and Sean.
Austin’s back to his gaming controller, eyes stuck on the television screen. “I’m not going in there. Iz with clothes on is ugly enough.”
He’s no help. I turn to Sean. “He always like this?”
“High as fuck?”
“No. Unable to live a day without something between his lips.”
Trent appears at the hall entrance, his long, wavy hair all ruffled and falling in his eyes as if he just walked off the set of a cologne advertisement. Fucking gorgeous without doing a damn thing. I look away.
“Right? You’d think he’d suck dick the way he’s always got something in his mouth.” Trent’s lips lift in a grin and he grabs a protein shake from the fridge, joining Sean at the table but rotating in his seat to meet my glare.
“Did you get a look at him?” I lift my eyebrow and flick my lip ring, “Dicks don’t make you feel that good.”
Trent’s smile pulls wider. “I feel as though I should take offense to that comment on behalf of cocks everywhere, but I think the lady is right. I’ve never fucked a girl who looked that happy afterward.”
Sean laughs and I can’t help but give in to a smile.
“Speak for yourself! I give it to the ladies so hard they slide off my dick high as fuck,” Austin boasts, his thumbs darting over the buttons and joystick.
I look between him and Sean, and then back to Trent. “Between all of you, Austin must have the smallest dick. He protests too much.” I roll my eyes for good measure.
There’s a brief moment of awkward silence and for a second I’m worried they won’t think it’s funny or okay for me to join in the smack talk. That is, until Sean slams his fist on the table and explodes into a fit of laughter. Trent’s eyes water, he’s laughing so hard. Austin just curses, his undivided attention back on the game.
“Oh, my God! I’m dying.” Sean holds his hand up for me to meet his high five and I stand up, joining them at the table to slap his palm. “This chick is badass.”
“That, I already knew.” Trent grins, his eyes all too knowing with his stare.
My stomach twists with an unfamiliar feeling and I decide to ask a few questions since we’ve got miles to burn. “So, you guys don’t partake? In the Iz entertainment?”
“No judgement on Iz, but I don’t like feeling fucked up. Not all the time like he is,” Sean says.
“I’ve got my looks to maintain,” Austin pipes in from behind.
“Of course. What with that being your largest asset.” Not looking back at him I roll my eyes and shake my head with a smile.
“And longest,” Austin mutters.
We try to contain our snickers.
“What about you, Trent?” I say. “What’s your drug of choice?” I don’t know what I expect, but part of me hopes he sticks to the light stuff. There’s something about him, a presence that captivates the second he walks into a room, and I can’t help but decide that’d be lost if he became addicted to drugs. My hope begins to fade when he doesn’t answer right away, his gaze trained on the table where he traces imaginary shapes with his long fingers, and for the first time since we met he looks almost . . . nervous.
Sean grins and responds for him. “Pussy.”
Trent’s gaze snaps to meet his friend.
“Pardon?” I ask with a little laugh.
Trent stares at Sean, a silent threat in his eyes, but for what I don’t know. “I prefer a more delicate sweetness between my lips,” he finally answers, then drops his gaze to mine, winks, and sticks out his tongue. He rolls it around before shutting his mouth with a pompous smile. “Plus, with this bad boy, it’s like I was made for it.”
It’s arrogant and he’s just playing around, but a rush of need pools between my thighs at the thought of his mouth there.
No. Just no. I shake my head and get up to retrieve my guitar and notebook. I need to write, force myself to focus on why I’m here, where I’m going. The banter around me fades and within a few minutes I’m fully down the rabbit hole, writing, the words coming like a freight train. I don’t think, just scribble them out as fast as they fly. Creativity sparks. Collides. And I’m left with the most troubling of arrangements.
Because every damn sentence reminds me of Trent’s outrageous tongue.
I slam the notebook shut. That was counterproductive. And this is going to be a long ride. Long. Damn it!
I did it again.
