About

Writing is my escape and always has been. It was there for me during an abusive childhood, it was a haven that allowed me to survive domestic violence and it was a buoy in a sea of pain when a loved one committed suicide. Writing has always been the safety line to keeping my sanity. To lose myself in fantastic fiction via wounded characters and write happy ending despite the twists that life always gives.

Live in southeast Texas with a dog and cat and more voices in my head of characters demanding to be written than I can even count.

A great book, however, leaves you looking around and wondering how the hells the world around you is ever going to be the same again after all you just lived through, thanks to the author. &quot;Madness&quot; is that book.

But it is. The good guy thinks he's bad because that's what he was made for only, he was made for more things than even he could imagine. I loved the fight he had within himself and the doubt he held. I loved how love always ALWAYS finds a way. Once you start reading you DON'T wanna stop. It pulls you in because you have all the element</span><span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">s- </span></p> <p><span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">Published Author Lauren Tisdale</span><br style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);" /><br style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);" /><span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">I like being shown not just the strengths of a character but their weaknesses too. To be able to care, feel, and see both sides to witness something that is more than just words on a page. The main character’s intense passion for all things winds you up as a reader. You can almost feel the sugar rush, the chaotic vibration of raw, barely contained anger, and the pull of good versus evil. Overall, I found this to be a very interesting and entertaining read and I can’t wait for the next installment. I look forward to collecting this series</span></p> <p><span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">- Published Author Mel Favreaux</span><br style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);" /><br style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);" /><span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">I loved the writing and I was sucked into the story from the beginning. I laughed, and found myself on the edge of my seat. I felt the sexual tension between the mains. I found myself really trying to read forward, to help me understand why they were separated in the first place. I found myself with my mouth open trying to help them kiss. The conflict was good. I felt the pain, I didn't get things until they were revealed. I may be the only person on the planet that didn't like harry potter because that world was just too complicated. Ward handled it well..It's a rare book that can accomplish for me</span></p> <p><span style="color:rgb(24,24,24);font-family:Georgia, serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;font-weight:normal;letter-spacing:normal;line-height:19px;text-align:left;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;word-spacing:0px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);float:none;">- Published Best Selling Author Kindle Alexander</span></p>
