Secondhand Smoke - NOW LIVE!


It's live!!!! The fourth full-length installment of the Dartmoor Series went live last night, a few days ahead of schedule. Paperbacks are in the works, but right now it's available for Kindle and Nook. The cover isn't showing yet on Amazon, thanks to website glitches on their part, but it will show up on your device when you download it.
 
 
 
While I was writing this one, I talked (complained?) about the fact that Aidan was my very least favorite kind of male lead. But this book ended up containing some of my favorite lines and scenes of the series. And it was good to challenge myself as a writer, to take that typical bad boy trope and break it down to something more basic and raw.
 
What you ought to know: This installment is just as Dartmoor-y as the others. It does contain a central love story, yes, but the driving plot of the book is Aidan's growth. His real challenges involve his club, his friends, his father, and the effects of his choices. We hear quite a lot from the other characters, and check in with all of the starring couples. 532 Kindle pages of biker family drama.
 
Thank you, readers, as always, for making me so excited to hit that "Publish" button. Love you all, and Happy Reading!!! :-)

  1. This book was worth the wait. I hope hope hope that Tango gets his story. To me, it is screaming to be told.

  2. I saw at the end of Secondhand Smoke that your next Dartmoor book was called Snow in Texas and "coming soon" - is that Tango's story???

    1. Snow In Texas is actually the first of a new spinoff series. It's Colin's story, and takes place in the Texas chapter. Originally, it was going to be a one-off, but now it's set as the first in a new series. I haven't revealed the name of Tango's book yet :-)
