OUT OF TIME:

 

BOOK SUMMARY:

Desperate to keep him…

I’ve finally gotten everything I ever wanted: love, freedom, happiness, and, most importantly, Finn. Our love is everything I expected it to be and more. We’ve finally found each other, but the world seems determined to tear us apart. We thought my father was the only obstacle between us, but now it’s the military. With Finn’s departure looming, we’re squeezing in every moment together before we run out of time.

Trying to make every moment count…

Being Carrie’s bodyguard was one thing. Being her boyfriend is another. Every day she’s mine is a day the sun shines in my life. Yet our time together is running out. Her father will never think a tattooed Marine will be good enough so I’ll do with whatever it takes to be worthy of her love. But the road will take me away from the girl who makes me feel alive–the girl I can’t live without.

Time only gets us so far…

 SPECIAL CONTEST:

I’m also offering up a special contest. For every 200 adds Out of Time gets on Goodreads before the release (December 3rd), I will reveal 5 pages of the book early (tops out at 20 pages)! Add it here.

If the book hits 2500 adds before the release, I will release a bonus scene from Finn’s POV! We’re already zooming in on 1,700, so the first goal is 1,800! Let’s do this!

Please let people know to add the book to goodreads in order to get these excerpts released.

A SPECIAL SALE:

LAST BUT NOT LEAST, A GIVEAWAY (because there’s always a giveaway):

a Rafflecopter giveaway

So, it’s that time. Time for the cover and blurb reveal of Out of Time (Out of Line #2)! I won’t torture you or drag it out too long, but I wanted to thank Sarah Hansen of Okay Creations for another fabulous cover!

Okay.

Ready?

Set?

Go!

Hello!

I have a new release coming up, and it’s a spicy (very very sexy) Contemporary Adult Romance novella. It takes place on New Year’s Eve, and it’ll be out December 16th! If you can help me celebrate the release and/or want a copy of the book, then please fill out this form!

I look forward to sharing Kiss Me at Midnight with you all!

Check this out, you guys! A reader (Victoria Shriver) made this graphic for Finn and Carrie! Pretty amazing, huh?! She also pointed out that it’s only TWO MONTH till the release of OUT OF TIME.

If you make any fan-made teasers/graphics, make sure to sen them to me at [email protected]!

…over and over and over and over and over and over again. (See what I did there?)

So, as most of you probably know already, Out Of Time (add it to your Goodreads shelf) is scheduled to drop December 17th, 2013. It was previously announced that it was going to be a novella. Well, guess what?! Not anymore!

I’ve decided to expand upon Out Of Time to make it a novel the same length as Out Of Line! 

What does this mean for you? It means instead of a shorter novella, you get a whole book on the seventeenth of December! After Out Of Time, there will be one more full length book, and then bam! Story done. Finn and Carrie will…well, I can’t tell you that, can I?

And on top of this exciting news? We are officially opening up the gates for people who will want to help us do the cover and blurb reveal November 12th, 2013! The people who sign up for the cover reveal/blurb reveal will get first dibs at the blog tour/ARCs–so make sure you sign up here!

Trust me…you won’t want to miss out on this cover reveal! 

So, who’s excited to read the next installment of Finn and Carrie’s journey, Out Of Time? 

Show me some hands!

So, I was trying to come up with a way to thank all of you who have loved Finn and Carrie. To thank you for helping Out Of Line hit pretty much every bestseller list there is, including but not limited to the New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal.

I was texting a friend (who is a reader and an avid Finn fan) and she suggested something fun and unique and hopefully something ya’ll will like, or I’ll feel like the uncool kid in school that no one likes!

Please don’t make me that kid.

Okay. My abandonment issues aside…ready for it?

There are two requirements to enter this contest. 

1. You need to have read the book. No purchase necessary. Library, borrowed, bought. Doesn’t matter how you got your hands on it. As long as you’ve read it and can talk about it. (You’ll see why in a few)

2. You must make a tweet about the book. I will put a few different tweets for you to choose from below.

After you have done both of these things (read it and tweeted), comment below telling me you’re done! You MAY tweet every day to gain extra entries if you’d like.

Easy, right? Now, you probably want to know what the prize is? Okay. Ready?

Well….it’s…me. Yep, me.

The winner will get a video Skype call with me, or a phone call if you prefer, where we can talk all about Finn and Carrie, what happened in Out Of Line, and maybe I’ll even give a few hints of what’s to come in Out Of Time! 

The contest will run through October 30, 2013 at midnight.

While only one person will win this contest, please make certain to spread the word far and wide. I’d really like everyone who has gotten a chance to read Finn and Carrie to have a chance at winning!
