I'm Still Around! Kinda, Sorta, Well...

This past year has been a little nutty for me. I was trying out some new things in my life and well they didn't really work out the way I had planned. So I'm most back to the way things were, only we've added a puppy to the mix. She is an adorable little handful. Lately most of my book sharing has been done on Instagram. Seems like that is about all I can handle most days. So, if you are on Instagram and want to check out what I've been reading you can find me there as myneuroticbookaffair
Thanks!

Exclusive excerpt:
He was lying back on the cushions in only his grey slacks. The button-down he wore was open, and I could see every line on his sculpted torso. That little smile was on his lips as he watched me approach.  I ran my fingers along his stomach, gazing into his eyes that darkened as I touched him. His kiss, the same one he gave me beside the fire pit, was gentle but hungry.  Our pace grew faster as we kissed each other again and again, tongues entwining, heat growing between my legs, until he pulled me under him.  My breathing was fast, my whole body tense with anticipation, so wet, so ready for his awesome fullness. I felt his tip pressing against my folds as a thought drifted through my mind. We’d never done it in a bed…

Cover Reveal: The Wicked We Have Done by Sarah Harian


The Wicked We Have Done by Sarah Harian 
Publication date: March 2014 
Genres: New Adult, Romance

Evalyn Ibarra never expected to be an accused killer and experimental prison test subject. A year ago, she was a normal college student. Now she’s been sentenced to a month in the compass room—an advanced prison obstacle course designed by the government to execute justice.
 
If she survives, the world will know she’s innocent.
 
Locked up with nine notorious and potentially psychotic criminals, Evalyn must fight the prison and dismantle her past to stay alive. But the system prized for accuracy appears to be killing at random.
 
She doesn’t plan on making friends.
 
She doesn’t plan on falling in love, either.
