Synopsis: Bull rider Adam Meyer put Devil’s Falls in his rearview mirror years ago and hasn’t stopped running since. Now he’s back—temporarily, if he has any say about it. Restless, he finds himself kissing the sexiest girl in town…and agreeing to be the fake boyfriend in her little revenge scheme. Jules Rodrigez isn’t interested in the role of town spinster. Being seen with a hell raiser like Adam is the perfect way to scandalize the residents, make her ex jealous, and prove she’s a sexy, desirable woman. And if their plan includes ridiculously hot sex—in public, of course—all the better. But this thing between them has an expiration date. Putting down roots isn’t in Adam’s blood, and Jules’s roots in Devil’s Falls are bedrock deep. He’ll leave, even if it rips out his heart. But this time, he’s not sure he’ll survive it… Get More information at: Goodreads | Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Kobo | iTunes



Excerpt:

“That’s really sweet, Grant. It was great seeing you, but my boyfriend is waiting for me.”
He frowned. “Boyfriend?”
“Oh, yeah, it’s a new thing. We haven’t exactly gone public with it—you know how Devil’s Falls can be—so you wouldn’t have heard.” She gave him a pat on his arm. “It was nice seeing you. So great. Really, we’ll have to catch up sometime soon.” And then she stepped around him, dragging Aubry behind her.
“What are you doing?” Aubry whispered.
“Winging it.” She stopped by the trio of men, all too aware of Grant watching her. “Hi, Daniel. Quinn. Adam.” They raised their beers.
Daniel looked over her shoulder with a frown. “Is that your piece-of-shit ex-boyfriend I see?”
“The very one.” She disentangled her arm from Aubry’s. “Speaking of, I need a favor.”
“Anything for you, kid.”
She tried not to roll her eyes at him calling her kid. He was a whole seven years older than her. Not exactly ancient. “Actually, it’s not you I need the favor from.” Before she could talk herself out of it, she sidled up to Adam and put her arms around his neck. To his credit, he didn’t shove her on her butt in the dirt, merely raising his eyebrows. Jules kept her voice low so there was no chance of Grant overhearing. “So as you’ve noticed, my ex is watching me really closely right now, and I might have told him a tiny white lie about me dating someone in order to avoid a devastating dose of humiliation. And since I can’t date Daniel and no one would ever believe I’d date Quinn—”
The man in question frowned. “You really know how to hit a man where it hurts, Jules.”
“—that leaves you.”
Adam’s face remained impassive. “I see.”
There wasn’t a whole lot to work with in those words, but he also had let his free hand drift down to settle on her hip, so she just kept talking. “If you could just play along and maybe kiss me like you want to do filthy things to me in the bed of your truck, I’d really appreciate it.”
If anything, his eyebrows rose higher. “That guy really got under your skin, didn’t he?”
“You have no idea.” Next to them, Daniel made a sound suspiciously like a growl, but neither of them looked over. Adam’s hand pulsed on her hip, the heat of it shocking despite the warmth of the night. His calluses dragged over the sensitive skin bared by her T-shirt, and she shivered. Maybe this was a terrible idea. She didn’t have time to really reconsider, though, because he set down his beer, cupped the back of her neck, and dealt her the single most devastating kiss of her life.
No, not a kiss.
He took possession of her mouth, his tongue tracing the seam of her lips and then delving inside. He tasted of beer and something darker, something that hinted at exactly what she’d asked for—like he wanted to do filthy things to her in the bed of his truck. She closed her eyes, giving his tongue a tentative stroke, and had to fight down a moan at the way the move made her entire body go tight. More.
He lifted his head, breaking the kiss and slamming her back into the real world. She blinked up at him, all too aware of her body pressed against the entirety of his, of how he was hard in all the places she was soft, of how goddamn good he smelled. “Wow.”
There went that eyebrow again. “You think it was believable?”




Q & A with Katee Robert


What books/authors have influenced your writing?
There have been so many! Two notable ones are Shelly Laurenston and Victoria Dahl. I discovered both around the same time, when I was struggling to find a home for my book, and their books kind of opened my eyes to the fact that, yes, I can write “unlikeable” heroines, and yes, said heroines can be crazy and like sex and be non-traditional. They were an instrumental part of my writing journey.

Tell us something you hate doing. Why?
Folding laundry. I know I’m not alone in this! But it’s just such a time suck, and by the time I remember that it needs to be done, I’m like “Nah!” I think my clean laundry pile is in danger of becoming sentient.

Share a funny incident in your life.
Well, just recently I’ve become a wee bit obsessed with Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’s new song, Dance Off. It’s just so catchy! So I’ve been driving my family crazy by popping up randomly and yelling DANCE OFF! And then shimmying around while they hang their head in shame.

What's your pet peeve?
People who say they will do a thing and don’t. It aggravates me to a clinical degree. Probably more than it should.

When you are in writer mode, music or no music? If music do you have a playlist
It depends on the book. For most of my stuff recently, I have a Pandora station that I start for each book (or series). The Foolproof Love series, specifically, has a country station that spawned from Eric Church and that I’ve sort of made my own.

Who was your favorite hero/heroine.
I’m totally unable to pick just one. I have a Hall of Fame that included Gabe from Wrong Bed, Right Guy, Regan from Seducing the Bridesmaid, and James from The Wedding Pact.

Have you ever had one character you wanted to go one way with but after the book was done the character was totally different.
Yep! I’m actually writing a book right now where no one is doing what they’re supposed to. The hero keeps doing and saying things that I’m like “Sir, you cannot do this thing!” and he’s like “I did the thing.” And then the villain is trying to steal the spotlight and the next hero is turning into something I didn’t anticipate… It’s kind of insane, but I’m enjoying the heck out of writing it.

What’s your next project?
Right now I’m working on the fourth O’Malley book, Forbidden Promises, and then going straight into the fifth and final O’Malley book, which doesn’t have a name yet.

What's the one thing, you can't live without?
Coffee

What is your favorite movie (song)?
I love Aliens. It’s a comfort movie for me that I throw on whenever I’m out of sorts or don’t know what to watch.

What's your favorite TV show of all time and why?
Supernatural, though I run about a season behind at all times.

Clean shaven, Scruff, beard, or mustache.
I’m all about the scruff or a well-kept beard






The Foolproof Love series continues…
Fool Me Once August 1, 2016
Aubry Kaiser doesn’t like people—actually, that’s not right. She loathes people. Combine that with her crippling anxiety around crowds and she’s in a mess when she gets an exclusive invitation to play a demo of her favorite video game, Deathmatch…which will be held at a convention with five thousand other people. The only solution? Bring someone else with her to the con to act as a shield—and unfortunately the only person available is the one man she can’t stand. Quinn.

Quinn Baldwyn is in a mess of his own. He’s been dodging his family’s matchmaking attempts for years, but with his sister’s wedding on the horizon, he’s in need of a shield of his own. Who better to drive off any potential marriage-seeking women than the fire-breathing dragon known as Aubry?

Things start to go sideways almost immediately when Quinn’s truck breaks down, forcing them to spend a seriously hot night in a B&B. They might barely be able to hold down a civil conversation, but in bed those fireworks are only the good kind. The closer they get to Napa Valley and Quinn’s sister’s wedding, the more he realizes that he might actually…like Aubry. But can two polar opposite people from completely different worlds ever really connect outside of mind-blowing orgasms?
