Losing Romeo is out now!

Losing Romeo is out now! It’s available in Kindle, Nook, and paperback version! I’m so excited! So here’s the cover, information, and a few teasers & an excerpt. So basically ALL THE THINGS!


When Rosaline Capulet takes a pill Romeo Montague gave to her in a love letter and goes to the Capulet party to find him, the last place she hopes she’ll end up is jail. Before taking the drugs Romeo gave her, Rosaline had always followed the rules. So she doesn’t understand how her only mistake lands her a one-way trip to Middle of Nowhere, Arkansas. Forced to live with her aunt, the threat of military school hanging over her head, she’s sure she’s ruined her life—all over a boy who disappeared from the party with her cousin Juliet. 

Bryson Mercer’s motocross career was destroyed the night he was attacked, his knee shattered. Now he can no longer race, the thing he loved most in the world, and has to walk with the help of a cane. He’s kept to himself for a long time, but then Rosaline moves in next door with her aunt. Even though Bryson’s sure the girl’s trouble, as well as out of his league, he can’t deny his attraction to her. 

The more time Rosaline and Bryson spend together, the closer they get, and they both find themselves doing the one thing they said they’d never do again—fall for someone. Meanwhile, Romeo and Juliet’s relationship is igniting the Capulet and Montague feud back in Verona, and people are getting killed over it. Rosaline’s starting to think losing Romeo was the best thing that could’ve happened to her. But when the words she speaks to Juliet lead to a chain of devastating events, the repercussions might not only tear her family apart, but also make it impossible for her and Bryson to be together.



Excerpt:
Alternative music leaked out of the garage, vibrating
the windows. She thought about knocking, but decided Bryson wouldn’t hear it
over the music anyway.
            His back was to her, his attention
on the bike in front of him. His cap was on backward, and the muscles in his
shoulders and arms flexed as he worked on the motorcycle.
            Rosaline’s nerves frayed and
short-circuited, her wild mix of emotions colliding and making a mess of her
insides. He seemed bigger than she remembered. Maybe it was being around the
beach and guys in suits, but he looked more rugged, too. All manly and hot and…
            Oh
my gosh, I can’t feel my legs. Sure she was about to tip, she steadied a
hand on the doorframe, her bracelets rattling against it.
            Bryson glanced over his shoulder. A
slow smile curved his lips, and her heart jumped into her throat. He dropped
the tool in his hand and straightened. He strode toward her, then abruptly
stopped about a foot too soon and looked down at his clothes. “I’m covered in
grease.”
            “I’m not worried about a little
grease.” She took a giant step forward and threw her arms around his neck.
            His strong hands gripped her waist.
“I was worried you wouldn’t come back.”
            “I had to fight for it, but I made
it. Then I worried I’d get here and you’d have changed your mind about me.”
            “All I could think about was you.”
            She ran her fingers through the hair
at the back of his neck. “I wanted to call, but the service on my Sleeping
Beauty phone is so spotty.”

            He flashed her the devastating grin,
the one that made her lose the ability to think straight, then leaned down and
covered her mouth with his.
