Today, I'm happy to spotlight author, Tara Chevrestt!
Love Request /Tara Chevrestt
I’m pleased to share with you my latest
release, Love Request. This one is
special to me because it’s not only the first romance I penned, but it features
a “hearing-impaired” heroine, like myself.
I say “hearing –impaired” because really,
there’s nothing wrong with Ciara. She’s not damaged or in need of repair. She
just can’t hear as well as others.
As a reader, I grew tired of all the
women in romance novels being perfect. In real life, many of us have
disabilities—and they are disabilities others can’t see. And worse, they are
disabilities others can’t understand, and a lot of times what people don’t
understand becomes something they fear…and belittle.
This is where the bullying comes in. You
see, this is more than just a romance novel. Open its pages, hit that Kindle
“next page” button, and find out for yourself. Learn. Be enlightened. Relate.
Want to sample it first? No problem.
Available on Kindle and FREE for the next five days, is a humorous Valentine
short story, Mating Instinct.
You’ll find the first chapter of Love Request at the end.
Thank you, readers, for celebrating this
special time with me. Happy Valentine’s Day! In honor of you, I’m giving away a
print copy of Love Request, a plush dog, a lipstick for that special date, and
5 pheromone-soaked chocolate incense sticks! WARNING: Be careful if dogs are in
the vicinity.
Blurb:
When Ciara
Littleton finally joins Facebook to socialize without the limits her hearing
impairment gives her, she looks up a childhood friend on a whim. In sending him
that first message, she ignites the memories of a crush from twenty years ago.
Can a simple friend request fix all that stands between them and maybe even lead to
something more?
Hunter's plate is full. A recent divorce, a pregnant sister,
and now, he realizes he's in love with a woman who lives states away. Can he
overcome the boundaries of Internet romance to make this desire turn into
something real, or will adversity and distance be their undoing?
This book was formerly titled A Facebook Affair and has been revised with a new ending.
Love Request has been named
a LASR Best Book and is now up for vote on Best Book of 2012 Poll. You can cast
a vote here.
I’m so excited and so grateful!
Blurb for Mating
Instinct:
This
is exactly what you need!
It’s Valentine’s Day and when Ariel
receives a package of incense in the mail from her Pagan friend and mentor, she
isn’t sure what to make of the enclosed note. Sure, she has some issues, but
who doesn’t?
When the smoke releases its magic, Ariel
gets an evening of surprise humor and romance, and it is indeed exactly what
she needs.
