Now his senior year is about to start and he’s been forced into yet another new home. This will be the last time, he assures himself. When an unexpected curveball comes his way in the form of a certain stubborn seventeen year old girl, Jamie soon finds out that life doesn’t always work out the way you plan it.
Beckett Chase has been entitled her entire life. Living in the plush landscape of Palm Beach, Florida, she’s never wanted for anything. She’s always taken what and who she wants with no remorse. When she sets her sights on Jamie Grey and she’s met with rejection, her descent from the top begins.

What is it like balancing a writing career with your normal life?
Quite the interesting topic…Maybe when someone learns how to do this they can teach me how! J It’s difficult to say the least. I do have a normal life aside from writing. Someday I’d like to write and call that my normal life but until then I am a literacy coach by day and writer by night. I have 3 kids, a fourteen year old, twelve year old; both boys and a princess, my five year old girl. She is only a princess by environmental influences, ruined for life by the bigger people in her world!
So yes a normal day for me is chaotic at best. I work at an elementary school teaching/coaching in the area of reading all day. Then it’s sports, dinner, homework, and bedtime in no particular order. “JUST GIVE ME MORE TIME!” I usually settle down on the couch with my headphones in around eight o’clock each night. I’m lucky after all the social on line sites, to get in a good hour of writing. BUT, yes, there is a but, somehow it all works out. The Sound of Shooting Stars is my fifth book to be released in a year. I have many more planned and just thinking about them makes me tired but that eight o’clock houris what I strive for and look forward to each day. All day long I get to experience the world and people that are important to me. At night I get to make up new people to talk to and manipulate their stories. In some freaky way it all works out for me.
