Synopsis


Katie’s world came crashing down in an instant. 
Her husband, daughter, and unborn baby. . . all gone in a flash. The life that she’d come to know, gone before she ever really got to live it. 
With a broken heart, she deals the only way she knows how, by shutting it all off. No communicating, no feelings, just pure nothingness. 
Alone with nothing but her own thoughts and a well meaning family, she moves back to her childhood home, a horse farm. It’s there that she finds herself healing along with the horses her family rehabilitates. But when Parker McKenzie comes back into her life she’s reminded of all that went wrong, and all that she lost.

excerpt 


In the twenty minutes that has passed since my Mom called Parker, the kitchen has become a hub of excitement and confusion. I’m still sitting on the hallway floor. In all the confusion I think I’ve been forgotten. But that’s fine, because I’m really good with being alone. It’s soothing for me to be lonely. That, and listening to all the conversation gives me something else to focus on besides myself. Tommy and Pop eventually join Mom and Stevenson in the kitchen, waiting for Parker. Each of them throw their two cents in as to how this should go down. Tommy insists that he should go with us, saying that Parker can’t handle the responsibility. I appreciate that he’s still trying to look out for my best interests, but the fact of the matter is that Tommy doesn’t know the half of what I need. 
He goes round with Mom and Pop, but Stevenson stops him. “We need to follow her lead, Tommy.” 
“I just don’t think her going there with him is the best option right now!” Tommy yells. 
“Now, I respect your concern, Tommy, and we all appreciate that you want the best for your sister. However, if Katie wants to go alone with Parker then that is what we give her. She needs to be in control of her own recovery. We need to remember that this isn’t about us. She’s an adult, she can make her own choices.” 
Tommy lets out a sarcastic laugh just before I hear the screen door fling open, the springs creaking in response, and then quickly slamming shut. “What the hell is going on?” Parker asks anxiously. 
Quickly, Stevenson fills Parker in on my request. He adds that Parker shouldn’t feel pressured, especially if he’s not comfortable with the situation, but that he needs to understand how huge this could be for my treatment. 
“Why me?” he questions. 
“I dunno, Parker,” Tommy barks. “Why you?” 
There’s a brief, awkward silence before Stevenson clears his throat and continues to speak. “Obviously Katie knows you well enough to know that you’ll be there for her, while allowing her enough independence to cope with it on her own terms. She’s trusting you,” Stevenson says without emotion. 
“I don’t know if I can do this,” he mutters. Experience tells me that he’s most likely running his hands through his hair. He always does when he’s nervous. 
A fist slams against the table, making me jump out of my skin. “You’re right, you can’t!” 
“Tommy!” Mom scolds. 
A few more moments of awkward silence pass. I can only imagine the looks that are being thrown in that kitchen. The tension is surely raising a few questions in everyone’s mind. “I just don’t think this is the best idea,” Tommy speaks quietly. “You’re in over your head, Park.” 
“We’ve been here before, Tommy,” Parker reminds him. 
“Exactly.”

I started writing contemporary romance two years ago. Before that, I didn’t think I could write a sex scene. Turns out I can!
My lucky number is 13 because I was born on the 13th and live near a haunted castle by the ocean. My number one past-time is watching hot surfers get changed into (and out of) their wetsuits.
My husband doesn’t read my books. My mother does.
Writing is my love, my hobby, my total addiction. All my characters are important to me and whisper their stories, even when I’ve finished writing their books. That’s why you’ll often find bonus chapters/out-takes from various books, because those voices just won’t be quiet.

Release Blast & Giveaway for The Spirit by D. Nichole King

The Spirit
Author: d. Nichole King
Release Date: April 29th 2014
Publisher: Limitless Publishing


Synopsis

Carrie Reese doesn’t believe in ghosts—until she falls in love with one.
From the moment he walks through the door, a cool breeze surrounds Carrie. She knows Lucas is too good to be true…and he is. Because he’s dead.
Devastated over her parents’ divorce, 17 year-old Carrie is spending the summer with her grandparents in Villisca—the creepiest town in Iowa. Even though it makes her skin crawl, Carrie doesn’t regard the haunting of the infamous Moore House to be anything more than superstition.
Lucas, however, knows exactly why the mysterious farmhouse should be avoided. But that’s not what brings him to town. As a ghost, he cannot cross over into the afterlife until he finds his soul, and there’s someone in Villisca who can help. Instead, he finds Carrie. And there’s something about her that draws him in. Why didn’t he find her sooner? Like, when he was alive?
When the force of their love disrupts the containment spell around the Moore House, the rift to Hell inside the attic opens, releasing the demons. Since love isn’t meant to be shared between the living and the dead, the demons target the lovers, intent on dragging them to where their souls will face eternal destruction.
Sometimes there’s more at risk than merely dying.


Thanks
for joining us today, Carrie.

Yeah. Thanks for inviting me.

Villisca,
Iowa—Why does that sound so familiar?

It’s a good thing it’s me doing this
interview. If you’d have asked that question to Megan, she would have bitten
your head off. She did mine! Villisca is famous for the Axe Murders of 1912
that were never solved. Now, the Moore House is said to be one of the most
haunted houses in the Midwest.

Creepy!
Have you ever been inside?

Yes. And I’ll never go back.

What
makes you say that? Did you see something?

Let’s just say I saw more than I
bargained for.

Does
that mean you believe in ghosts?

I didn’t used to, but now I have no
doubts. Can we talk about something else, please?

Of
course! You seem to have two hotties vying for your attention. Let’s start with
Mike Carson. How’d you meet?

Mike helps my grandpa around the farm.
When we were first introduced, I swear, he came off like the most conceded
jerk. To be fair, sometimes he still is. But after awhile, we warmed up to each
other. He taught me how to ride my horse, Goldie, which I would never have
mustered the courage up to do on my own. Mike is actually pretty charming when
he wants to be.

And
not bad on the eyes either.

(Laughs)
Yeah, I think he works hard at that.

How
about Lucas? What’s your relationship with him like?

(Sighs)
Complicated. He’s … well … he… I mean, we…

Complicated?

Yeah. Yeah. I work at my grandma’s
antique store, Renae’s Antiques, and one day he walked in. He took my breath
away immediately—I’m not sure I can even explain it even now. Then he touched
me and something clicked inside me. It was like, suddenly, I’d known him
forever.  But that’s stupid because,
before that day, I’d never seen him before in my life … well, except that one
time, but that doesn’t count. From that day, he captivated me. I’ve never loved
someone so much.

Lucky
for you, it seems like the feeling is mutual.

It is. That’s one of the only things in
life that I’m sure about.

So,
what does the future hold for Carrie Reese?

Oh, gee. I don’t know. It’s hard enough
thinking about the present. And with everything else going on right now, the
future is something I’m … well, I’m worried about.

I
have to ask everyone: What’s your biggest fear?

Probably that: The future.

Kelly resides in a quiet suburb somewhere between Buffalo and Niagara Falls, NY. Her day job? Kelly works in health care representing a group of nursing facilities in the WNY area. She’s been faithfully writing for three years but did write her first book ten years ago. She put it down to raise her son as a single mom and then picked it back up when she and her son finally grew up. That's when she settled into her newly married adult life and started to seriously write again. She's dabbled with Romantic Suspense stories, but recently she's been on a contemporary kick. The recipe for the men in her stories: a dash of bad boy attitude, a cup of strong and confident and, of course, besides being packed with magnificent bodies, and doused with shameless aptitudes, they must have a tender heart you want to rip out of the pages (or your e-Reader) and take to bed with you at night.

excerpt

Lucky Numbers Adult Excerpt
“Put your hand under your dress,” he said, his thumb still stroking that damn wet beer bottle like it was her clit. Kaley turned to see if anyone was watching. “Hey!” Lucky’s stern voice whipped her head back to him. “Look at me. Don’t worry about anyone else. I’ll warn you if someone is coming.” His feet spread her legs farther apart. “Where you’re sitting, I’m the only person who can see you. Now, do as I say, unless you want me to stop.” His daring eyes held hers, and all discretion slipped out of her grasp. She gave him his answer by dropping her hand beneath the table. “That’s good,” he rasped, deep and low. “Now place your hand on your thigh and slide up to the top of it. Are you there yet?” She nodded. “I want you to grip it hard.” With her heart racing and wishing his hand was there instead of hers, her fingers dug into her flesh. His eyes raping her of any reluctance, he bent forward and grunted, “Harder.” Noting all the hot spots, the tight grip he had on the beer, his biceps and the tattoos bulging from the cut of his sleeves, his mouth that lay slightly open, Kaley squeezed tighter. “Are you wet?” “Yes,” she gasped, clinging tighter to her thigh. “I’m so wet.” His tongue tapped his top lip. “Are you throbbing?” “God, I’m aching for you,” she said, and she meant it, for she wanted nothing more than his tongue on her. “Kaley,” he said, swaying closer, tempting her, “tell me, is your pussy mine?” “Yes,” she breathed out. “It’s all yours.” “Then touch what is mine.
