Stuck in Y.A. Books

The Songs of Defying Gravity I can’t write in silence, so I have to have a playlist specific to each book I write, complete with songs that the major characters.

Her smile could stop traffic…no, really, it had stopped traffic. The sudden loss of coordination among the men near the entrance was proof.

She searched the crowd, oblivious as always to the way people stared, and Parker waved. Laughing, she barreled straight at him, tossing her snowboard to the side, before knocking him into a snow drift. They landed in a clatter of boots, boards, and limbs, with her on top. Her grin lit up the world. “Parker Madison! How the hell are you?” His entire body went supernova hot. He could feel every inch of her, despite the layers of ski clothes separ...

Lux: Beginnings (Obsidian & Onyx) official Blurb: Obsidian There's an alien next door. And with his looming height and eerie green eyes, he's hot...until he opens his mouth. He's infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, he lights me up with a big fat bulls-eye. Turns out he has a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal his abilities and the only way I’m getting out of this alive is by sticking close to him until my alien mojo fades.
