Blurb:
One day I was be-bopping along jamming to the music in my head while wondering if my thighs could handle grabbing a cupcake on the way home. The next thing I knew, my entire world crashed and burned.
I used to wake up at night in a sweat, crying because I’d dreamt that my husband was cheating on me, or that he hated me, and resented my kids. He’d always hold me close and tell me it was all just a dream, that he loved me and our family and that he’d never let me go.
He was a fucking liar.
Now I spend my days taking photos of scum just like him, trying to be a champion for other's being taken advantage of by the losers in our town, and my nights being a single mom to my beautiful twins.
I've got great friends who have my back, and a sexy, mysterious motorcycle man who keeps showing up when I need him. Maybe things are starting to look up, and one thing's for sure... There's always room for cupcakes.

Sample Sunday
After I got a couple shots, I decided it
was best to sneak out the back rather than show my face in the storefront
again. I slowly pushed the back door open and eased out.
“Who
the fuck are you?”
I whipped my head up as I was shoving the
camera back in my purse, and saw a strange man standing by a rehabbed old
Camaro, smoking a cigarette.
“Uh … a friend of Clarice’s. I was just
using the bathroom,” I managed, not sure who the guy was, or what my next move
should be.
“Yeah?” he asked, throwing his cigarette
to the ground and taking a step toward me. “You need a camera to do that?”
Shit.
Before he could make another move, I
secured my bag on my shoulder, turned and took off like a shot.
I hit Main Street, cursing myself for
wearing the damn boots when the sound of a motorcycle pulling up along side of
me caused me to turn my head.
My first thought was, where the hell did the bike come from?
Then I realized it wasn’t the slimy guy
from behind the salon. The bike came to a stop and the most dangerously
beautiful man I’d ever seen rumbled, “Get your sweet ass on the bike.”
Huh?
I stood there for a moment, wondering
what in the hell was happening, if I should get on this strange man’s bike, and
if I was offended or flattered by his sweet
ass comment.
“Darlin’,”
he prodded.
I turned my head to look behind me, and
saw the slimy guy standing at the side of Clarice’s, and made a quick decision
to accept … his offer of a ride, and the compliment. So, I swung my leg up and
over the bike, settled my front to his back, and curled my arms around the
thick bulk of his muscled body.
Tingling head to toe from the adrenaline,
and the close contact with a seriously hot man, I couldn’t stop my lips from
spreading into a grin as we took off down Main Street.

Books That Need More Attention Giveaway Hop ~ Confessions of an Alli Cat by Courtney Cole
I love this Blog Hop idea!
The purpose is to highlight a book that I loved that I want to introduce to more readers.
Who doesn't love sharing books, right???
I looked through my bookshelves, physical and virtual, to find a book that I wanted to get in the hands of more readers, and when my eyes landed on Courtney Cole's, Confessions of an Alli Cat, I knew I had the book I was looking for.
Now, Courtney Cole is a wildly successful write, and her Beautifully Broken series is off the charts. But before If You Stay, there was, Confessions of an Alli Cat, and that is the book I'm urging readers to give a chance.
Funny, sexy, and all kinds of dirty, Confessions of an Alli Cat is the kind of book that will have you laughing out loud, while you're squirming in your seat.
Thirty-five year-old Allison “Alli” Lancaster has it all—a fabulous job, a beautiful 15 year-old daughter, a hilarious BFF and a gorgeous house with a pool and Jacuzzi in an exclusive Las Vegas neighborhood. What she doesn’t have is a husband, because she kicked her lousy, cheating ex to the curb nine months ago. Since then, Alli has paid her dues with seemingly endless self-improvement and seemingly endless mourning. Now she’s ready to move on and try new things.
Alli’s idea of “trying new things” is nothing like that devil-of-a-best-friend of hers. Somehow, Sara, the devil of a best friend, talks Alli into trying out a sex toy, sleeping with a younger man and letting a stranger in a lab jacket put hot wax on a place that should never, ever, ever see wax. And that’s only the beginning.
Alli never saw her life going quite like this. She also never thought she’d meet someone else who had the very real potential to change her life forever.
But she did.
Enter the new guy. He’s gorgeous, refined and mature. He’s also marriage material. But that poses a problem for Alli, who renounced the institution of marriage when she renounced her ex. What’s a girl to do?
They say that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. But what the heck happens when you can’t leave Vegas? Well, you spin the wheel, of course. You play the game and let the chips fall where they may.
Alli just hopes she can find them all.

Courtney Cole is a New York Times and USA Today Bestselling novelist who would rather write than eat chocolate. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Business, but no amount of working in the corporate world could quell her urge to write.
Courtney was born and raised in Kansas, home of incredibly friendly people and the most horrendous weather on the planet. Because summer days were so hot, she grew up reading stacks of books... and when she didn't like the ending, she wrote her own.
Courtney loves hot pink nail polish, Mitch Albom and thunderstorms (not necessarily in that order).
She currently lives near Chicago with her real life Prince Charming, two sons, one daughter and small domestic zoo. To learn more about her, visit wwww.courtneycoleauthor.com
