The Deal with Covers...

No. I'm not changing ALL my covers, lol. And this isn't even going to be a real post today. Just wanted to show my pretty and to say that this book is 0.99 for a few days while I celebrate the perfectness of the couple and the almost kiss on this picture :-D

Amazon
Barnes and Noble (I'll link this when the B and N one goes live)

I wanted to share a few lines from the book instead of the blurb because it's just more FUN:


She chuckles, and I can feel each of her movements, as if she’s shaking some of her happiness and it’s spilling into me, because I’m not ready to let her go, not yet.

His brows go up, and he uses a hand to slide over his light brown hair cause he thinks girls love his hair. Well, girls do love his hair, but mostly cause he spends more time on it than most girls would.

This is why I don’t tell people I write. What kind of guy admits to loving the way certain people put words together?

There’s no thinking, just pulling her as close as I can. I breathe in her damp hair. She’s still sweaty from running, and I love it. I love that she doesn’t care. Her arms are strong, and we’re both holding on, like we’ve become the anchor for the other.

I stare at my shoes in the sand and don’t answer. I’ve already let this girl in on way too much. I’m feeling too much, which means I’m hurting too much. Something’s gotta give or I’m going to break apart.

How do I get rid of the heaviness of death? The craziest things bring this on. Ordering a coffee. Standing on the beach. Jumping into the ocean. It’s all random. I can’t figure out a way to avoid everything that’ll pierce me like this. Not when I don’t know what they are.

Last night sleeping with my arms around her felt… indescribable, and waking up this morning with her pressed against my back, her arm draped over me, felt even better. So, I’ve practically cried in front of this girl, let her in on way more than I’ve let people in on, slept all snuggly or something and she still hasn’t let me kiss her. My world has definitely changed.

 I lean toward her again and breathe in, which is a really stupid thing to do when you like a girl more than she likes you.

Yes. I know I've shared some of these on here before, but I just love my Antony...

What are you all up to this weekend??
I'm going to Warm Bodies with the husband and plan on eating my weight in popcorn and Cherry Coke Icee.

I'm going to camp on my couch and watch lots of anime for research on my next book. ;)

It's nice when you find that perfect picture for your couple. And Antony sounds dreamy.

Great cover!

Nothing better than movie theater popcorn! We had a dance recital and hockey games this weekend. That's about it. Last weekend for hockey though.

I'm leaving on a business trip. Makes the weekend so short :(

Sounds like a great read!

And I finally finished The Fault in our Stars. It was super good :)

I think this is the first I've heard of your Antony, but he sounds reaaaal nooooice (the Aussie version of "really nice" hehe). So I must add him to my to-read list! Or, errr, the book he's in.
