AUTHOR SHERREL LEE RELEASES EXPOSED BY RAGE VIA KINDLE SCOUT!



EXPOSED BY RAGE
by Sherrel Lee



EXPOSED BY RAGE Blurb:

He has a dead body.  She has the seedy connections. To solve the crime they are forced to work together.

To keep her mother’s reputation from destroying her, Ashley Dix Gibson had to learn at an early age to persevere and tune out the lies, gossip, and the bullies.  Detective Michael DeMarco has no desire to team up with a woman with ties to the underbelly of the porn industry but if he wants to solve his case, he has no other options. When Ashley and DeMarco combine their resources to find a brutal killer, sparks of distrust turn into the fires of passion.



EXPOSED BY RAGE Excerpt:

I must have been feeling weak, because instead of rushing out to confront a few of those I wanted to talk to, I invited DeMarco in.  He’d left Braden in charge of the scene and didn’t appear to be in a rush to start the reports he’d have to do.  That thought made me smile.  For once I wasn’t chained to a desk for seventy-five percent of the investigation.  I could get used to being out of the Army and doing things my own way.

“Glad to see the smile.  I know this has been extremely hard on you,” DeMarco said.  “Want to share?”

“I was thinking about Jillie, wanting me to come home.  She kept trying to talk me into the leaving the military.  It took her death to accomplish that.”  Hot, wet tears started streaming down my face.  Appalled, I turned away from DeMarco and stumbled toward the bedroom.  He didn’t say anything or try to stop me, but he did follow me. When I didn’t collapse on the bed, he put his arms around me, gave a gentle hug and helped me to sit on the mattress.

Damn.  This was awkward.  The harder I tried to stop crying, the more I leaked tears.  I don’t cry.  I don’t show emotion, especially to guys.  I didn’t want to feel the warmth of his touch and long to put my head on his shoulder.  But I did.  Before I knew what was happening his lips were on mine and I was holding him.  Desperate to keep from drowning.

He pushed back, looking into my eyes.  Reading me like the clichéd open book.

IS WRITING A BOOK ON YOUR BUCKET LIST?


Last Friday evening, I was fortunate enough to be on an author panel at an event in Mansfield, Texas The evening was directed at encouraging upcoming and beginning authors.The others on the panel were:

Diane Kelly is the author of the Death, Taxes and . .  . series. Diane spoke on “Saying It With Style.” If you’ve read her books, you realize she knows her subject well. Her mystery series is fun and fast paced. The first one is DEATH, TAXES, AND A FRENCH MANICURE. Diane is a CPA and tax attorney who writes full time for St. Martin’s Press.

Liliana Hart is a NYTimes and USA Today bestselling author who is self-published. She has three series going: the Mackenzie series, the J J Graves series, and the Addison Holmes series. Liliana spoke on “Secrets to Sizzling Suspense.” Her books are sizzling, so she knows her subject. Liliana has been especially gracious to share her marketing knowledge with other authors.

Sherrel Lee is a Daphne Du Maurier Finalist and fantasy author who spoke on “Covers Draw Readers.”  Using a power point presentation, Sherrel demonstrated good and bad covers.

Ken Aldridge is a former FBI agent who now writes crime novels using his years of catching criminals as a basis. His topic was “Is Writing A Novel On Your Bucket List?” He discussed the good and bad experiences he’s had in publishing. Sorry, I don't have a photo of Ken.

You know that I am an Award Winning and Amazon Bestselling Author of Western Romances. My topic was “Layering A Novel.”  I have no idea whether or not my portion of the evening was effective, but many attendees took notes as well as my handout.  I hope I helped someone.

The members of the Friends of the Mansfield Library did a wonderful job setting up the event and selling our books for us. I must say this was the best organized of these events of which I’ve been a part.  So, there you have one of the fun parts of being an author.

If writing a book is on your bucket list, attending events like this in your area will provide encouragement and tips for success. 


Thanks for stopping by!
