The lesson that you’re never really alone has refilled my cup when I’ve been certain that I’ve drunk the positivity dry. I’m so thankful for the ladies that have supported my writing from the get-go, especially Sarah, Sara, and Kate. The ones who have picked me up when I’ve fallen, like Deanna. The ones that have moved on, because you’ve taught me so much about who I am. And the friends who endure with time.
I’d also like to acknowledge the amazing authors that I’ve met and collaborated with online over the past six months. Behind the scenes in a writer’s life, these are the woman willing to show you the way, trade secrets to success, and put themselves out there for one another. I couldn’t be more thankful for the advice.
MJA, forever and always “I know you think you do” because each time you push me to try harder I love you more.

GRAY SIN
JOE— I was doing my job when I rescued Gracyn. But I should have known better than to bring her back to my cabin. She has a reputation for getting whatever she wants. I’d never considered she’d be interested in someone as old as her father. I wasn’t attracted to anyone so young until that night. Now I’m in bed with the devil, trying to keep my buddies from finding out that she’s everything I ever wanted.
GRACYN— Joe was another one of my parents’ friends not worth paying attention to until he saves me from myself. It was only supposed to be one sinful night. Now, I temp fate each time I go back for more. I’ve fallen for a much older man and we’re treading in gray waters. To keep him I’ll have to come clean to my family. But does friendship eclipse love?
GOING DOWN (Short Story)
KAT—The only time things seem picture perfect since my parent’s divorce is when the wind whips past my face as I glide down a mountain slope. Snowboarding feeds my need for an adrenaline rush while grasping onto memories that once were secure.
Dash Newhouse is an unstable drifter. Ski patrol is just another way he pays his bills before moving onto a new mountain next season. And I doubt fortune is shining down on me when we get paired together for a rescue on a snowy winter day. Yet, it’s not long before Dash reminds me that I can’t live life to the fullest while playing it safe.
Deep down, I can’t deny that his wanderlust doesn’t appeal to me as much as his rock hard abs. But when the snow melts, will Dash's antics have helped me navigate a new, steady peak... or will he ride off with my heart?
I love the personal messages readers send me requesting more Kingsbrier stories and saying how much they’ve connected with a character. I wish I could share them because most of these e-mails are exactly what goes into a review.
Writers leave review reminders for one simple reason: The fewer reviews we have, the less retailers believe we’re worthy of your precious time. They’re quick to suggest someone else; an author with more reviews.
The amazing thing is that your favorite retailer makes it easy to rate and review when you get to the end of an ebook. The stars appear right in the app to touch. Reviewing is simple. Just a sentence or two that tells other readers what you liked or that you’d recommend this book. You can also leave a review on Goodreads or BookBub.
Reviews are the best way to help an author. I’d really appreciate a review this (or one of my other books) so that I can keep writing for you. Thanks!

Jody’s husband asked what she’d been doing all day. After five years she finally confessed, “When no one is around, I write.”
Okay, It was more like a bunch stammering and trying to get out of saying a thing. Jody’s a writer. You want it pretty. Let’s compromise.
“Just finish one,” he said, challenging her to complete a story and share it. Little did he know that those words of encouragement meant they’d return from a family vacation with a wild and defiant set of quintuplets stumbling their way into adulthood. Wasn’t raising their three sons enough?
A native of nowhere, Jody settled in New England for 17 years before agreeing to uproot her brood of boys and move to North Carolina. She’s a part-time graphic designer and marketeer with over twenty years experience, and full-time writer. If Jody ever gets lost, you’ll find her reading, all the while hoping that her ravenous children haven’t managed to eat all the ingredients before she’s cooked dinner.
