When you've been crushing on your brother's best friend ever since you slammed into him at the rink…
Everyone’s booming and cruel jokes resonated in your mind like a nightmare.
He didn't laugh. Instead…
His powerful athlete-of-the-year arms around your waist, he murmured…
"Are you okay there, Jellybean?" And…
When you nodded (not trusting your voice not to break), he added,
"You got this." And his rugged hand found yours… Your breath caught as he taught you how to skate *in front of everyone*
You finally understood the flutters described in your mother's harlequin novels…
Except they weren't snow flurries dancing in your chest.
Oh no. They were a teenage-love-Taylor-Swift song blizzard.
And for the past fourteen years, your heart's been beaten, bruised, burned…
by an unrequited crush on your brother's way-off-limits best friend.
Fourteen years. This should come with a trophy. Or some sort of support group.
Especially as he’s now standing in your kitchen…

Today is all about my Kickstarter not getting funded for #TheLeftoverBride audiobook: what I would do differently, what I learned and what I did after it didn’t get funded …
Self-publishing can be a roller coaster of emotions and is filled with ups and downs. Last week, I heard words every romance author wants to hear (during a pretty stressful day), one of my Vella stories lost a crown … and then regained it. Plus, I get to fangirl over Eloisa James.
Today I also talk about my dream of having Fear Me, Fear Me Not adapted for Lifetime or Netflix… And I have my first voicemail!!!!
Today, I share with you my book promo results using BargainBooksy as well as my audiobook promo results using AudioThicket. But first, I start by sharing some good news as well as explaining why sometimes it feels like I “need, need, need” to write. And more advice from writers on TikTok:
Pick one thing at a time and master it. You don’t have to be brilliant at everything right out of the box.” by @mckennadeanfiction and
