Uncovering You 5 is live!

Oh my gosh, you guys can't believe how excited I am to share this book with you.

I really poured everything I have into it.  I knew I had to do something special to make up for the delay.  I'll wait for your reviews before passing judgment, because only you can tell me whether I've succeeded or not... but I've got a good feeling.

This book moves the story along at breakneck speed.  We start where UY4 left off, with Lilly being left in the dark... but we quickly move on from there.  Questions are answered, new ones are raised, and there are some enormous revelations that come up in this book.

I really hope you girls love it.  And I really hope you forgive me for the delay.  But honestly... this version of the book is so much better than what I had originally.

Description:
I am mentally exhausted. I am at my wit's end. I am in the dark, again, with no end in sight. 

But just when all hope seems lost, a light appears at the end of the tunnel. A confession... that breaks me from the stranglehold of hopelessness and despair. An admission... that brings new dimensions to the man who is shrouded in secrecy. 

Stonehart’s revelation can never change what he’s done to me. But can it be enough to make a difference in how I see him? As old questions are answered, new ones arise: 

Is it possible for a man to change? 

Is is possible for him to repent for all his sins? 

And, perhaps most important of all: 

Is it possible for me to forgive?

Guess what I just did...

...thought some of you girls might want to see this.  It's just a matter of hours before the book is live on Amazon!

:D

For now, two more teasers... and the cover:

Teaser Two:

Before I can move or say a word, Stonehart is out of the chair and looming before me.  I brace myself for something—what, I don’t know—but what I get instead surpasses every expectation.

Stonehart puts one hand above my hip, tugs me into him, and kisses me fiercely.

The kiss is a mixture of molten lava and smoldering passion.  He hasn’t ever kissed me like this.  No one has.

Heat flows into me and the blood drains from my head as my body responds to him in the most natural way possible. Stonehart’s kiss consumes me, and I let it do so entirely.

When he finally lets go, my legs are shaky.  My lips are swollen from the assault.  And I can feel heat—palpable, scorching heat—radiating from my cheeks and neck and chest.

I’d mistaken the look in his eyes.  It wasn’t displeasure.  It was desire.


Teaser Three:

We sit down at an elevated table close to a massive window.  I can see the river below and the clear sky speckled with stars above.  If I were in even a slightly better mood, I would be in awe of the natural beauty.

Stonehart speaks to the waiter.  I don’t listen.  A glass of wine is set down before me.  With bitterness, I remember what happened the last time I accepted a drink at a restaurant with Jeremy Stonehart.

“So.”  Stonehart looks at me after the waiter leaves.  “This has been a very productive trip for us so far, wouldn’t you say?”

I glare across the table.  “I hate you,” I declare.

He chuckles.  “A reasonable claim.  But false, I think.”

“No,” I challenge.  “I really, really hate you.”

Stonehart smirks and leans back.  “You find me fascinating.”

“Don’t flatter yourself.”

“I don’t need to when you do it so well.  You’re curious, Lilly.  Inquisitive.  You want to know what makes me tick.  Put that psychology education to use.  Tell me what you see in me.  Your analysis on the ride here was quite compelling.”

“I don’t have to do anything of the sort,” I say.

“Oh, but you do, sweet Lilly.  Did you forget the terms of our Contract?”

And there it is again.  The Contract.  Of course it never disappeared.  It was just buried somewhere in the background.

“Fine.  You want to know what I think?  I think you’re manipulative and sadistic.  Everything you told me yesterday… the things you said after Rose and Charles left… those were all lies, weren’t they?  Meant to butter me up.  So that I would lower my guard and be vulnerable for the surprise you had in store for me today.  You…

First Teaser for UY5

7/22/2014

I'm going to be posting a few teasers to lead up to release date... which still isn't set, but shouldn't be too far away.  Today I've been working on the cover (I make my own covers) while waiting for the final edits of UY5 to get back to me.

Anyway... hope this little bit helps tide you over:

Teaser 1:

“What—“

He lifts a finger.  Just one, but the simplicity of that motion speaks louder than words.  I cut off.

“Don’t press your luck,” he warns.  “I want you to take a silent minute to compose yourself.  Then we can risk going back in there.  And Lilly?  Tread carefully.  Wait until we’re outside before speaking your mind again.”

I narrow my eyes at him.  What’s he hinting at?

“I’m not going back,” I say, crossing my arms.  “I—”

“Two.”  Stonehart’s voice is soft and slices through my protest like a frosted blade.  He lifts a second finger.  “I’ve been very generous with you tonight, Lilly-flower.  As proof of my new intentions.  But if you think of testing my desires a third time… well, the result will be very unpleasant.  For us both.  I don’t want to backtrack with you.  I hate wasting my time.”

Second Version Of UY5 is DONE!

Quick post from my phone...

The second version of UY5 is done! I can honestly say that I love this book. There's so much that happens. We're not stuck in the mansion anymore. Stonehart and Lilly have some pretty epic battles, and our girl finally gets to speak her mind. There are surprises everywhere.  Things become a whole lot clearer. Their relationship is now front and center, and it's a doozy.

I think some of you know that I write my books longhand and then transcribe them at the end. Well I actually finished the book three or four days ago, and it's been one marathon session to get it all typed up since then. But now it's done... literally minutes ago... and I feel like I can finally breathe, for the first time since announcing the delay of the book.

Now it's off to my editor, who'll get back to me quick. From there it's only a few days to publication. I'll have an exact date for all of you soon.

And this one, I'm not going to miss.
