SUMMER HEAT BOX SET 10 SPICY NOVELS!
99 CENTS!
I recently did a blog post on box sets
CLICK HERE and now here I am part of one myself. I have no illusions it will make any bestselling list, but am hoping after 8 months of no releases, it will give me a little exposure. What a great way for readers to try out a new-to-them-author. But the thing to remember is most of them are only available for a limited time, so snatch them up!
For a limited time, you can buy the Summer Heat box set, which includes 10 novels from Crimson Romance's Spicy line! Not short stories, not novellas...but novels. My novel THE WICKED BAD is part of the set. Exceprt below. Book 2 in this series is coming this fall from Crimson Romance. Watch for HIS WICKED CELTIC KISS coming soon.

The Wicked Bad by Karyn Gerrard
Blurb: Dark
and brooding, Nick Crocetti is a bad boy in looks and demeanor.
Veronica Barnes needs a new start, and Nick is a complication she
doesn’t need.
Can they break down the barriers of past heartbreak, or is Veronica just a good girl who longs to rub against “the wicked bad”?
Excerpt: She
followed him toward the beach. The shoreline wasn't very big, but
private, as you couldn't see the road or much else from their vantage
point. Wonder how many other women he brought here, she thought
cynically.
He spread the blanket
and assisted her in sitting down. Again, the touch of his hand made her
face flush as well as parts further south. Nick sat next to her with
one leg bent and he rested his arm on the top of his knee. They sat
quietly and gazed out over the water. The waves caressed the sand with a
serene almost hypnotic sound.
“I
saw you talking to that wuss, Jake Spooner, as I left the other day. I
can imagine what he said about me,” Nick said in a voice so soft, she
hardly recognized it as his.
Veronica cleared her throat uncomfortably.
Nick laughed. “I see. Go on, amuse me, what did he say?”
“Um, he said you were in prison—” she began.
“Jail. Not prison,” he retorted.
“There’s a difference?”
“You’ve
got the cop for a brother, you tell me,” Nick snapped. He shook his
head, more gently he said, “Sorry. It’s a touchy subject. City
jail, for assault and destruction of property. Prison usually means a
state or federal beef. Mine was local and a long time ago. I did my time
and it’s over. I don’t like talking about it.”
“He
called you a thug and said you deal drugs among other things.” She
shouldn’t be telling him this, but the words tumbled out of her.
“Really?
And still you went out with me? Are you some thrill seeker, one of
those good girls eager to rub up against some wicked bad? Is that why
you’re here? I’ll be as bad as you want, just say the word.”
His voice grew tight and edgy. Barely restrained anger simmered below the surface, she could hear it.
“I’m just telling you what Jake said, you asked.”
Nick stared at her for several moments. “Yeah. I did. Sorry. I haven’t been out on a date in awhile.”
“You haven’t been with any women...”
“Oh,
I didn't say I haven’t been with women, just haven’t been on a date.”
The right corner of his mouth twitched in what Veronica supposed was
amusement.
