All Nighter
I didn't mean to stay up all night. But, I was filled with excited nervous energy.
1) Fall From Grace is ranked #379 in all of Amazon Kindle store. Um, yeah. Speech-effing-less.
2) I had to keep on writing Book 2 - I'm furiously going in circles with a problem that I can't seem to work through. I'm afraid I may kill somebody.
3) My husband was playing X-box like a rock concert in my living room.
4) And I needed to get to the end of Gabriel's Inferno. Good book, by the way if you are looking for a Fifty Shades minus the BDSM, plus classic literature and hot kissing. But me, I needed to have these characters have SEX! At the end of the book I'm thinking to myself that Gabriel just needs to restrain her wrists with his freaking little bow ties and just...well, ahem...you know.
So I've stayed up all night. I'm going to need an IV of caffeine today. And right now my two year old is perched on the arm of my couch with the hint of the devil in her eyes.
And there's all my f@*king awesome readers who are emailing me letting me know what they'd like to read in the next book. The majority of you want Shane and Grace to finally get together. You dirty minded readers. That's why I think I love you guys. Hmmmm. What's everybody's thoughts on this? Because, really this book is for you guys. Something to make you feel the little flutters of butterfly wings in your bellies, a little something to make you feel a bit flushed and bite at your bottom lip...
Love you guys!

Yeah.. Definitely more flutters of butterflies in our bellies, flushed faces, and bites at our bottom lips... Those are our wishes for book #2!!! And of course... They finally getting together (sigh!).
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you. Congratulations on your success. I was sure Fall From Grace was going to explode when I read it, and I am so glad Maryse reviewed it. :)
Love, BrazGirl
Just read the book and loved it! They have to get together. But she should be a bit mad he fell in love with "someone else" :-) when do you think the new book will be out?
ReplyDeleteThanks you guys! I don't have a date set yet for book 2, I'm still writing and revising. Hopefully soon!
ReplyDeleteChristine, I hope you are following the comments at Maryse's book blog... Everyone is raving about your book!!! I can totally see why you stayed up all night filled with so much excitement. :)
ReplyDeleteLove, Minha (BrazGirl)
Maryse is BOOK BLOG GODDESS!
DeleteJust finished. I started this morning and couldn't go to be tonight until I got to the end. What a fantastic story! I LOVED that you made her a bad ass rocker in her own right. Of course I can't wait for all this foreplay in book one to finally result in Grace and Shane getting together in book two. It'll be amazing and I can't wait for you to take me on that journey! Thanks for a great read.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm so happy you liked it!
DeleteI just finished your book and I loved it, the ending left me hanging but when I seen there would be a book 2, (sigh) BIG relief.. I have to know how the story ends. Happy writing, can't wait to read it..
ReplyDeleteThank you! I know, the ending was hard to do for me to! But, I'm glad you liked their story...so far!
DeleteI'm sure the 2nd book will be awesome. Any idea when I might be reading it? Wink-wink.. ; - )
ReplyDeleteI don't have a set date, I'm almost done writing. But then it needs to get edited and revised. Hopefully soon!
DeleteGreat story! I loved your book and can't wait for book 2. Just finished it and found your website at the end and had to pop by. I also loved the Gabriel's Inferno...the sequel to that was pretty good too....and like that book yours I kept thinking...are they ever gonna get to business ;). Keep up the good work and let us all know when you get done with book 2 I know I'm not the only one waiting on pins and needles :D
ReplyDeleteThank you!
Deletefirst can i just say OH MY GAWD! you are absolutely ahhmazing! so i read a lot of books.. and i mean A LOT.. but this book has got to be my absolute favorite! i have never reviewed or commented or anything like that but your book was sooooo good that i decided i just had to! im already freaking out about the next book! ahhhh i loved it sooo much! and shane oohhh my! i get butterflies just thinking about him and wishing there was a guy like him in my life!!! haha :) and i absolutely loved grace's badass personality! you are such an awesome writer! i could literally see the scenes playing in my head while reading.. thats how freaking awesome it was!! im definiately gonna read every single book :)
ReplyDeletePS- how many books are gonna be in the series?
Thank you so much! I don't know how many books there can be. So many people have emailed me telling me they'd like to read the story of Gabriel, or Lea and Conner's story, which are all great ideas. But I'm just so in love with Shane and Grace I can't think about any of the others as important characters yet!
DeleteGood question... I hope there are at least 3 more books.... We need more Shane and Grace!!! Maybe one about Gabriel and his poor soul as well.??? :)
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of Shane's side of the whole thing. But when I try to write from his side he's so badass it just makes me crack up.
DeleteBrilliant!!! Loved it and I too read a lot!! Respectfully requesting you hurry with book two lol!! I would love Shane and Grace to be together! I was sad when I looked for book two and couldn't find it.... Anyone would think I was much younger than 39 but a fantastic book is a fantastic book, whatever your age!! Good luck with completing book two, I can't wait to see it out there!! Thank you for a brilliant read!!
ReplyDeleteThank You! I'm trying to finish it as fast as I can!
ReplyDeleteJust wondering if Fall from Grace is available for Nook? I keep reading great reviews about it over on Maryse's blog but couldn't find it for Nook. I'm dying to read it!!
ReplyDeleteIt will be available on Nook in about 3 months. I had to enroll it in Kindle Amazon to give it away for free for a few days to try and promote it, but now I'm stuck there :(
DeleteI read about your book on Maryse's blog and I just wanted to say I freakin' loved it! I am absolutely dying here... I NEED the second book and I need it now! I love Grace and Shane (along with everyone else, obviously) and I really hope they find each other in book two. I read a lot of books and follow a lot of authors and you will definitely been on my watch list. Along with everyone else that has read your book, I'm dying to know when book two will be out. Do you have a target date or are you publishing on fiction press? Congratulations on your book and please hurry with book two!
ReplyDeleteJust finished Fall From Grace....PLEASE put Grace and Shane together and hurry up with book 2....I can't wait for both of them to get their HEA...
ReplyDeleteThoroughly enjoyed the book....waiting anxiously for the next installment...
