Cover Reveal – Be Careful What You Joust For
Penny and James have always been close to my heart. When I was 18 years old, I opened up a door and collided with my future husband. I didn’t even ask his name…because I’m shy and awkward and was completely star struck by his smile. But we ran into each other again on campus. It was fate. And last November, we shared our first dance as husband and wife to the song Hands Down by Dashboard Confessional.
Just like Penny and James, we both love Harry Potter and we both got obsessed with the show Game of Thrones as soon as it aired. It was only a matter of time before we decided to create something magical together. The Hunted series is my heart and soul. But this new book? It’s both our hearts and souls.
I’ve been saying that this is a collaboration with the fabulous Ryan Hauge. And that’s true. But what you didn’t know was that Ryan Hauge is my husband. My James. And if Penny and James were to write a story together…this would be it.
Without further ado, here is the official cover reveal of our brand new novel, Be Careful What You Joust For - a fantasy romance. It will be available for preorder on iBooks, Nook, and Kobo soon and it will be a live release on Amazon on March 21st.

Blurb
The fiercest knights in the realm are coming together to compete in the Joust for Arwin's Lance, a tournament that will divide even the closest alliances. The winner alone will have the power to start or prevent a war from unfolding across the peaceful lands of Pentavia.
House Hornbolt, a prominent family that desires peace above all else, is hosting the tournament. The Hornbolt’s have always been strict followers of tradition. The first born son wears the armor of a knight. The second takes the priestly Oath of Arwin. And the daughters get married off to the most eligible suitors.
The eldest son is the favorite to win the tournament. But the rest of the Hornbolts aren't as eager to follow the paths laid out for them. What if the second born wants to be a knight too? And what if the eldest daughter just gave her heart to a common thief?
Customs are meant to be broken. But that’s not all that threatens to shatter House Hornbolt, not when a secret deeper than the late king's grave is unearthed right before the joust.
The fate of Pentavia hangs in the balance as war becomes imminent. And the scales are about to tip.
One wrong move and everything could fall to pieces.

The Truth In My Lies…Coming This Valentine’s Day
The release of The Truth in My Lies is less than a week away! It’s a romantic thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end. And I am so excited for you to read it! It will be released on February 14th. What’s better than some thrills on Valentine’s Day? ;)
I am doing a few things a little differently with this release. First – it will be a live release, so there are no pre-order links for this one. I’ll let you know as soon as it’s available. Second – I’m releasing it exclusively in Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. This month, Amazon is partnering with Susan G. Komen to donate $5 for every eligible consumer who signs up for a 30-day free trial of Kindle Unlimited. Susan G. Komen’s mission is to save lives by meeting the most critical needs in our communities and investing in breakthrough research to prevent and cure breast cancer. So, I have decided to release this book in Kindle Unlimited to begin with.
Before you start throwing things at me, you know that I want all of my readers to be able to access my books. Please shoot me an email and we can discuss!

~*~Blurb Reveal~*~ The Truth in My Lies
My name is Adeline Bell. I’m a suburban housewife. Period. My husband has always kept me on a tight leash. I’m not even supposed to leave the house.
My husband leaves every Monday morning for business and comes back Friday night. I have the weekdays to myself. And I always leave the house every morning. What my husband doesn’t know won’t kill him. I wake up, run, clean the house, wish for a better life, repeat. It’s best when I have a routine. And every day is exactly the same.
Except for Thursdays. I live and breathe for Thursdays. It’s when he comes. You know the type. The guy that is the epitome of escape from your wretched life. The one who embodies the strength and freedom you don’t have. I watch him from a distance. I can’t help myself. But I was never supposed to talk to him. I was never supposed to fall for him.
I know what you’re thinking. But you don’t know my story. You don’t know the kind of monster my husband is. And trust me, you have no idea who I am.
