FREE ENDS TODAY for BURIED by Elisa Dane

High school senior, Claire Reilly’s world revolves around All-Star cheerleading. The Diamond Girls, are gearing up for a major competition, which, if they win will allow them to compete at Worlds for the first time. But the unimaginable happens, and both Claire and her team are rocked by a devastating loss. Determined to get to Worlds any way she can, Claire finds help from the last person she imagined would give it—up and coming UFC fighter and notorious bad boy, Ryker Vaughn.

Fouled out of the octagon by a dirty opponent and a vicious kick to the head, Ryker loses control when he learns he may never fight again. Angry over the loss of his mother, an unsupportive family, and the world in general, he gives up, gives in, and unleashes his rage—destroying part of his cousin’s cheer gym in the process. Things go from bad to worse when Ryker is given an ultimatum: help the Diamond Girls compete for a bid to Worlds, or go to jail.

Overwhelmed with anger, sadness, and grief, the unlikely pair learns that what you see is not always what you get and that the most difficult losses sometimes open the door to a frightening, yet amazing new future.

The Romance of Sunset

I really do enjoy sunrise, more so now than I have in the past. Sunset, though, always brings a happy sigh. Enjoy the sunset photo’s captured here. We’ll be posting more on Facebook and Twitter too. I already have a few on Instagram and Pinterest. Share your favorite sunset with us.

SUMMER’S END AVAILABLE TODAY!

Small town gossip fuels a teenage girl’s drive to follow her dream while navigating through the perilous waters of friendship, family, and handsome distractions.

Small town gossip. If you live in a small town, or ever have, you know what I’m talking about. There’s always a couple in every generation who seem to dedicate themselves to being the queen of gossip. Yes, occasionally there is a king, but usually it’s a queen. And if you have ever been their subject, you know how Regan feels. We all react in different ways, but I think Regan handles it pretty good most of the time.

Mostly, Regan has her future to focus on. The gossip drives her desire to leave small town life behind. She has a plan, it’s not perfect, but she thinks she has the bases covered. Her small group of four friends have a plan for their future, too. Sometimes . . . plans change. Family has a strong influence on future plans-whether it’s fair or not.

I hope you enjoy Summer’s End. Let me know who your favorite character is. Tell me your favorite parts. Share Regan’s story with your friends, and help me get the word out.

SUMMER’S END LAUNCHES TOMORROW!

Here is your last sneak-peek and it’s a good one.

Chapter 18 . . .

“Regan, I know you think I’m good at telling you what
I’m thinking and how I feel about you, but….” I reach my
free hand to his arm and squeeze, holding on tight, leaning
my head against him as we continue to stroll. “I’m scared
of what tomorrow brings. Worried I might fail, that I won’t
be able to handle the classes and all the people . . . afraid
of being away from home, from you, from what I know
and love….” We stop and he turns toward me. “I don’t want
tonight to end,” he chokes out.
Softly I agree, “Tonight’s been the best night of my life.”
My voice is a little rough too, and I’m tearing up. I slide
my arms up and around his shoulders. “I don’t want you to
leave.”

I greatly appreciate your help in this launch process. As always, please let your friends know about Summer’s End and share on your favorite social sites. Book two is already in the works as we continue to follow Regan’s life.

COUNTDOWN TO LAUNCH

Pre-order for Summer’s End now — release in 2 days!

Check out what we have today from chapter 17 . . .

 

Tobi’s standing, waving us over out at the horse barn. We
pull up and park as she walks over, and I get out meeting
her, “Good, you didn’t forget your boots,” she says with a
grin.
“You look rugged and ready.” I tease, but she looks so
pretty with her long blonde hair down under her summer
cowboy hat. She’s sporting a pair of Wranglers and a
turquoise T-shirt.
We walk through the barn, and I can see she has the
horses saddled under the shade tree on the other side. “I
packed some water bottles in the saddlebags,” she says as we
continue out the door. I see the back end of a fourth horse.
A big, beautiful buckskin is saddled, too. My eyes follow the
lines of the buckskin to the being that has a hold of the reins.
“Guys, this is Rex”
“Rex?” I ask. She never mentioned someone else riding
today.

Two more days, y’all! I’m so excited to be sharing this with you. If you like the snip-its released throughout our countdown, please share them with your friends and post them on your favorite social media sites. Monday we’ll share a piece from the final chapter of Summer’s End.

ONLY 3 DAYS TO THE RELEASE OF SUMMER’S END!

Three more days to the live release of Summer’s End Did you enjoy yesterday’s quote? Take a bite of this snip-it from Chapter 15 . . .

 

We get down the road a ways passed Lake Nellie, “You
can sit over here,” indicating beside him, “and stretch out.
We’re out of town, its dark, no one will see.” He’s driving
much more slowly on the way home.
I’m contemplating whether this is a good idea or not.
My earlier thought of him leaving pops in my mind again.
I warn him, “I probably stink.” I unbuckle and move over,
kind of resting against his side with my back, leaning my
head on his shoulder. My hair is in a ponytail on top my head.
He moves my hair aside, kind of wrapping his arm
around me and inhales, “You smell like caramel.” I can’t see
his face but I can tell he is smiling and picture it in my mind.
“Right.” We are contentedly quiet for a couple miles.

It’s not too late to pre-order Summer’s End. Tomorrow we celebrate one day closer to our release date by sharing more of Regan Stone. If you like what you’ve read so far, please share with your friends and help me get the word out about the new release, Summer’s End.

Find My Place

Warm sun

blue sky

cool breeze

why don’t I

why don’t I skip this town

find a better place around

a place not torn between

a place of excitement

a place of peace

docile & gentle

adrenaline rowdy

stimulate my mind no longer cloudy

Song for her.

May 1, 2016

 

Lane sings along with the radio. It’s what he does. He’s secretly dabbling in song writing too.

up & down

you got me feeling

like I can’t breathe

you got me spinning

I can feel

my heart beat

faster than my truck speeds

between your house and mine

round & round

you got me going

girl I can’t see

anything but you

in front of me

driving down this road

wondering what if it’s just you & me

yeah - you & me

no one else

say you see it too

it’s a perfect match

no we’re not just friends

we’re more than that

I’m gonna miss you girl

I can’t take it

don’t you feel it too

do you see it

what we’ve become

I can feel it - when you’re next to me

riding down the road - when you’re next to me

surfing on the hood - when you’re next to me

jumping off the cliff - when you’re next to me

fishing in the creek - when you’re next to me

I want your kiss on my lips - when you’re next to me
