— ABOUT THE AUTHOR: JOSEPHINE TRAYNOR —
I’m a writer with a dream of sharing the characters I see in my head with others and have you fall in love with them too. I have been a writer since I was a little girl and finally got brave enough to show my work to a friend. My friend asked for more and that, in turn, resulted in me showing a couple more friends, who told me this book needs to be published.

On the other side of the pen name, I’m a mother of two and that’s a big part of why I’m using a pen name. This is MY career choice, not theirs. It’s not about being ashamed of my work, far from it, I am super proud but I have a responsibility. The other reason is due to wanting to keep the focus on my work. For the lack of a better pun, I’m an open book, ask me anything, but I think my books are far more interesting than I am.

I think about writing and characters all the time. I love nothing more than sitting down at my computer, or even with my pen and notebook, to get my imagination down on paper. I try to create characters that feel like friends, people that the reader would want to know. I aim to write stories that not only give you a laugh, but have you thinking about your own life.

About the actual name – I’d chosen another name and found out that there is another author out there with the same name. Back to the drawing board, I chose my favourite name – which was Josephine. As for the Traynor part, I’d just finished reading Jojo Moyes’ Me Before You and Will Traynor’s choices and suggestions about living to the fullest and without regret was another push for me to follow my dreams.

Thanks for dropping by and I hope you fall in love with a few laughs along the way.

relentless-river-ecover-1
Cover Design: Kari March Designs
Release Date: February 9, 2017
 
Synopsis
He was Ice. Sheriff Bo Lawson was everything a retired Marine Special Operations Operator should be. Cold. Calculating. Calm in all situations. He handled terrorists and too drunk locals without blinking, until a couple of dead bodies show up in his small town, throwing his controlled environment into chaos.   She was fire. Cheri Boudreaux, manager of the local bar, lives her life by one rule – work hard and play harder. The last thing she needs is a repeat of her father: a strict stick-in-the-mud unable to veer from the rules. Then she meets Bo, a walking, talking sex god in uniform and her preconceived notions incinerate.   Ice meets fire. Bo craves order. He craves control. He craves a red head with a wild streak wider than the Mississippi. She is everything he despises, but can’t get off his mind. So, when Cheri needs help, he wants to be her knight in shining armor. Threatened by a deadly foe neither of them could predict, Bo and Cheri clash in an uncontrollable inferno. When the truth is revealed, their world falls apart – can they find the strength to fight for each other or will their newfound love fall under a relentless tide of evil?

SYNOPSIS


I told Gwen I’ll introduce myself but I wouldn’t agree to another date. She promised it was only coffee but I heard the hint of amusement in her voice before she ended the call. I was glad she picked my favorite bistro as the place to meet up. I realized I didn’t know what Damon looked like. I was so focused on it not being a date, I didn’t ask. I texted Gwen as I went to the counter. I bumped someone and the heat seared my skin. He asked if I was alright but I couldn’t respond because the hot liquid hit the delicate skin under my silk top. The shock took a few seconds to wear off. He reached for linen napkins. I rushed out of the bistro…


Merissa didn’t know the handsome guy that followed her out to the parking lot. She was too embarrassed to speak with him. The coffee accident in the bistro made Merissa realize she hadn’t been social after her terrible break-up. She logged into a social website and fixed her profile with Gwen’s help. They read the flirts and messages. Merissa didn’t like any of them. She used an advanced search and minutes later she found Articulate Scholar 569. All it took was one click. Merissa was fascinated with the man online. She had a crush on the handsome guy from the bistro. What will happen when she realizes Damon is her real life crush? Will it affect her online attraction to Articulate Scholar 569?

Tour: Defy by LJ Shen

Title: Defy
Series: Sinners of Saints #0.5
Author: L.J Shen
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Published: February 3, 2017




My name is Melody Greene, and I have a confession to make.

I slept with my student, a senior in high school.

Multiple times.

I had multiple orgasms.
In multiple positions.
I slept with my student and I enjoyed it.
I slept with my student and I’d do it all over again if I could turn back time.
My name is Melody Greene, and I got kicked out of my position as a teacher and did my walk of shame a la Cersei Lannister from the principal’s office, minutes after said principal threatened to call the cops on me.
My name is Melody Greene, and I did something bad because it made me feel good.
Here is why it was totally worth it. 
Defy is a smutty, insta-love, insta-lust short novella. Defy is a prequel to Vicious (Sinners of Saint #1). It is recommended, but unnecessary, to read Defy before reading Vicious.
