Synopsis: I was getting ready to spend the single most important holiday of the year alone. Completely and utterly alone.

That meant he wouldn’t be there Christmas Eve. No making Christmas cookies, or listening to my dad sing off-key while my mom bustled around wrapping last-minute gifts. No decorating the tree. No midnight Christmas kiss.

No waking up in Grey’s arms. We were actually going to spend our very first Christmas in different states.

That was until Grey gave me the most unexpected gift of my life.

CHARACTER POST - Eden

A Very Grey Christmas combines all things Christmas with all things romantic. I wanted the novella to be a way to wrap up Grey and Eden's story at the holidays. Just like the other two books, this is from Eden's perspective, so I had to show Christmas through her eyes--what things she loved and treasured about the holidays. I made a Pinterest board that captured a few of the key scenes in the book, and other than Grey, Eden's favorite things about Christmas!

Here's a little take from Eden's point of view about Christmas with her family.

"Christmas is magic to me. And I completely mean all of the over-the-top, cliche' things that you can possibly imagine. I love the old movies, the classic carols, decorating the tree. I love my neighbors' tacky lights and our other neighbors' beautiful snow village. I can't wait to start baking cookie with Mom, or helping deliver them the next day. It's laughing at my dad trying to wrap a present, and watching my mom try to keep her gift-stashing spots a secret. Christmas is all these things to me. It's cinnamon candles and twinkle lights, special toddies and surprise desserts. It's all those moments that only happen once a year. And sometimes when you least expect it, even with all its wonder, Christmas can still surprise you."

Bully and Victim

Friend and Lover

Past and Future

Ellie McCallum and Flynn Hendrick’s story was as painful as it was devastating.  But they were able to find within each other an unlikely yet beautiful love. Despite the obstacles that tried to keep them apart.

And together they rose out of the ashes of their tragic history.

Now years after their life changing reunion Ellie is back in Wellston, having just graduated from college and ready to start her future with the man who taught her how to love. However, returning to a town that held so much bitterness and anger was the last place she wanted to start over.

But for Flynn, who is now an art professor at the community college and firmly rooted in the place that gave them their beginning, she’d do just about anything.

Yet it’s difficult building a life when you’ve only just learned how to live.

 And love, no matter how strong, doesn’t always conquer all.

Ellie and Flynn must learn how far they are willing to go to stay together. Or whether the ghosts of the past will consume them both.

Because finding a happily ever after is harder than it seems. Particularly when you’re fighting against the one thing that could destroy you.

Yourself.

Synopsis: Bully and victim.
Tormenter and tormented.
Villain and hero.

Ellie Mccallum was the bully. The Tormenter. The Villain. Taking what she wanted, stomping over anyone that got in her way. Feelings, futures, and relationships be damned. She felt no emotional connection to anyone or anything. A sad and lonely existence for a young woman who had come to expect nothing more for herself. Her only happiness coming from making others miserable.

Particularly Freaky Flynn.

Growing up, Flynn Hendrick was known only as “Freaky Flynn.” He lived a life completely disconnected even as he struggled to become something more than that boy with Asperger's. He was taunted and teased, bearing the brunt of systematic and calculated cruelty, ultimately culminating in a catastrophic turn of events that brought Ellie and Flynn’s worlds crashing down.

But then Flynn and Ellie grew up.

And moved on.

Until years later when their paths unexpectedly cross again and the bully and the freak are face to face once more.

When labels come to define you, finding yourself feels impossible. Particularly for two people disconnected from the world who inexplicably find a connection in each other.

And out of the wreckage of their tragic beginnings, an unlikely love story unfolds.

But a painful past doesn’t always want to let go. And old wounds are never truly healed…and sometimes the farther you try to run from yourself the closer you come to who you really are.

NOTE: This is a "New Adult" novel. Due to mature content this title is recommended for ages 17+

Synopsis: Power. Money. Control. Love.
He has all but one.

When movie star, Evan Carlson, discovers his girlfriend’s picture with another man splashed on the cover of gossip magazines, he decides he’s had enough of his fishbowl life and attempts to outrun the media frenzy his relationships have become. Driving until the road stops, he ends up on the remote and quaint Perry Island, where a heartthrob can blend in like the locals and be a beach bum as long as he wants. All that changes when Evan meets Haven Owen, aspiring songwriter and the girl he just can’t get enough of. A summer romance turns into something much deeper and Evan gets tangled in his own web of lies to keep Haven in his life. But when his ex tracks him down, Evan learns there are some things you just can’t outrun.

Is the cost of love, losing all control?  

Interview with Evan Carlson

Questions provided by Mary-Kathryn Craft

MKC: You shoot a majority of your films on location. Do you have a favorite city?
EC: I’ve traveled all over the world with my career. Of all the movies I’ve done I think my favorite city might have been New Orleans. As you know, a lot happened on the Masquerade set, so it meant a lot to all of us to be able to complete that movie. New Orleans is a fun town. Some good bars in the Quarter I highly recommend.

MKC: Now that another successful movie has wrapped, tell us a little about your next project.
EC: I’m trying to focus on my charity, the Carlson Foundation, which helps at-risk youth get involved in sports. I’m reading a few scripts right now, but I haven’t committed to another film quite yet.

MKC: Our readers know you were a college football star before you became an actor, but explain how the two roles are similar. Did playing football prepare you for some of your more daredevil-like roles? How did it help mold you into the leading man you are today?
EC: I’ll tell you what, I feel some of those football injuries when I’m working on stunts. Seriously, it helps to have an athletic background in my films that are more physical. I think it gives me a sense of discipline since I’m used to training, practices, and paying attention to my body. I learned to handle a lot of pressure on the football field, believe it or not that comes into play in my life now more than ever.

MKC: What's your favorite part about being an actor? (Besides getting to spend so much time with all the lovely ladies like Emmy Harper).
EC: I really enjoy taking on new roles and working on my character. I guess that’s why I take on so many different parts. I can be a spy one day and a baseball player the next. It’s pretty awesome.
 
MKC: What's the most challenging aspect of being an actor and Hollywood's Most Eligible Bachelor for that matter?
EC: I don’t want to disappoint my fans or my family. There are parts of this business that make it hard to make everyone happy. As for the bachelor part, I try not to think about it. I’m just here to have a good time.

MKC: If you had to pick an entirely new career that didn't involve Hollywood or football, what would it be and why?
EC: That’s a good question. I’d like to think I’d be doing something really cool, but probably I’d end up in my hometown of Brees running for mayor or something.

MKC: Describe what your perfect day would be like.
EC: My favorite days are the ones I can spend on my ranch with my buddies, drinking beer, and just hanging out.

MKC: Throw our female readers and your fans a hint of hope. How serious are things really getting with Emmy Harper?
EC: Aw, they don’t really care about that do they, darlin’? Emmy and I had a good time working on Masquerade and I’ll just leave it at that.
