About

My name is Elizabeth Reyes. I've been writing all my life for fun and only recently decided to join the indie world. I am working on a romance series entitled The Moreno Brothers about the love lives of 3 brothers living in La Jolla California. The first in the series, "Forever Mine" is now available on Amazon  and B&N The Nook.  Forever Mine was released in on the Kindle September of this year and has received good reviews thus far. I just recently published to The Nook and am still waiting for my first review there.  I'm hoping to have the 2nd in the series "Always Been Mine" out by early 2011.

Story Behind The Book

Forever Mine was first born in my 10th grade computer class. Uninterested in computers I instead spent my hour writing the story that was loosely based on 3 very popular brothers whom I could only watch and fantasize about. After printing about 7 chapters, it was put away in an envelope for MANY years. It wasn't until over 15 years later that I moved and came upon the envelope in a box that had sat in my closet all those years that I became engrossed in a story I had almost forgotten all about. When coming to the last chapter written, I wanted so badly to know what happened next. I decided to finally finish it. After finishing the novel I missed the characters so much I started writing "Always Been Mine" the story of the second oldest Moreno brother. That's when I made the decision to make it a trilogy and write the romance stories of all three brothers. I hope to have "Always Been Mine" out by Early 2011.

Night Owl Reviews gives Forever Mine the &quot;Top Pick&quot; 5 Star review!<br /><br />&quot;I can't even begin to express how much I loved this book.  read the whole thing in less than one day. In fact, it was nearly five o’clock in the morning when I finished, it was that good.&quot;    Read entire review in media mentions<br /><br />&quot;An uncomplicated, yet moving story of first love, I was easily caught up in the lives of Sarah, Angel and their friends. I found the story entertaining and well-told. The teens all seemed remarkably grounded and well-mannered for the most part. There was very limited adult involvement and supervision. Most adults were barely present and quite peripheral to the story. The author, though, did an excellent job of fleshing out the teenagers. There were numerous teenage characters and each one's personality was believable with realistic, true-to-life motivations. This novel is a complete stand-alone book. I look forward to reading the next book in the series that will be about the commitment phobic pair, Alex and Valerie&quot;<br /><br />Laurie<br />Reviewer from Coffee Time Romance and More<br /><br />&quot;This book is wonderful! Not only does it bring back memories of your first love, but it has an excellent story line that will get you hooked. With so many interesting twists this book keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time. It is an easy to read romance that will melt your heart. It will make you wish you had an Angel Moreno of your own. Once you pick it up, be prepared to not be able to put it down!&quot;<br /> <br />Amazon Reviewer<br /><br />&quot;Fantastic Read! If you're looking for something that's easy to read, yet written with eloquent words that whisper of romance, this book is what is you're looking for. A coming-of-age drama about two teenagers who are just finding out what real love is all about, and a story you'll never forget.&quot;<br /> <br />Amazon Reviewer
