I owe everyone an apology </span>- I'm great at short internet communication like twitter and facebook, but with my short attention span I'm always like...HOW DO I BLOG POST? I've forgotten. Also I might be on another planet. Who am I? Why is Donald Trump still alive and being awful?<br />
<br />
Regardless, thank you all so much for keeping up with me on <a href="https://twitter.com/Sara_Wolf1">twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/sara.wolf.3304">facebook</a>, etc. Twitter is where I'm most active, and also <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/6862831.Sara_Wolf">Goodreads</a>! So if there's a question burning you alive, shoot it to me there before you char to a crisp and cease to continue living!<br />
<br />
As some of you may know, <b><i style="background-color: yellow;">Entangled Publishing recently bought the Lovely Vicious series</i></b>. What does this mean? Well;<br />
<br />
1. <b><span style="font-size: large;">New Cover</span> </b>- I JUST SAW THIS TODAY and let me tell you, I haven't crapped my pants since I was a wee tot, but I may have today. Maybe. I don't actually have the courage to check. Let me get back to you on this one later, or more likely never.<br />
<br />
2.<b> <span style="font-size: large;">Paperback Editions</span></b><span style="font-size: large;"> </span>- This means you can finally hold LOVELY VICIOUS in your hands, give it your best friend to read, and mark up the pages with doodles! Or you could be like me, and swaddle the book in a baby blanket and sing it to sleep every night, because that's what I'm going to do.<br />
<br />
3. <b><span style="font-size: large;">All the LOVELY VICIOUS books have been taken off the market until Jan. 5th, 2016</span></b> - So pre-order! Tell your friends! Tell your enemies! Tell yourself to pre-order a million copies to bury your enemies under!<br />
<br />
4. <b><span style="font-size: large;">Edited Content </span></b>- Working with Entangled and their lovely editors means I got to make the book even better than it was. It also means I'll get to pad out the subsequent books with more scenes, more steam, and more screams! (And of course, more Jack and Isis. Better Jack and Isis!) My evil cackling just woke up my neighbor. You're welcome.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
TLDR: <b>A new version of LOVELY VICIOUS will be out in paperback JANUARY 5th, 2016. But for now, you can pre-order it on:</b><br />

How has your November been so far? Sick of Halloween candy yet?<br />
<br />
<br />
I've got some great news today! LOVELY VICIOUS, my newest series, a Young Adult/New Adult romance, is officially up on Amazon! It's one of the closest books to my heart, and deals with a damaged girl, a stuck-up walking Armani ad, and the war between that eventually blossoms to love. Here's the cover and blurb! Happy reading!!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">Fire meets ice. Love meets hate.</strong><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;"> </span></div>
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">Seventeen-year-old Isis Blake hasn’t fallen in love in three years, nine weeks, and five days, and after what happened last time, she intends to keep it that way. Since then she’s lost eighty-five pounds, gotten four streaks of purple in her hair, and moved to the Buttcrack-of-Nowhere Ohio to help her mom escape a bad relationship. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">All the girls in her new school want one thing – Jack Hunter, the Ice Prince of East Summit High. Hot as an Armani ad, smart enough to get into Yale, and colder than the Arctic, Jack Hunter’s never gone out with anyone. Sure, people have seen him downtown with beautiful women, but he’s never given high school girls the time of day. Until Isis punches him in the face.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">Jack’s met his match. Suddenly everything is a game.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">The goal: Make the other beg for mercy. </span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">The game board: East Summit High.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; text-align: left;">The reward: Something neither of them expected.</span><br />

The librarian eyes my purple streaks but doesn’t say anything. She’s seen worse. I meander down the aisles, looking up and down for him.

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>He scoffs. “This is far beyond just her, now. Stop

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Then why spread a rumor about how I kiss? Whether
you acknowledge it or not, it’s a very specific rumor. You must’ve used it as
cover at the party. Thought of it on the fly, right? It was the first thing

you should read up on.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

emotion, but I caught the tiniest glimmer of annoyance flit across his face
before I turned. I won this round. The bell to end lunch rings and people start
streaming out of the cafeteria and I keep plotting. I’ll keep harassing him
like this, until he apologizes to Kayla, at least. It’s really his fault. It’s
only two words, and then I’d let him off the hook. But no – he has to be so
stubborn, so conceited, so –<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

at them, or possibly fight them off, when a blur roughly pulls me in, hard
hipbones pressing into my stomach and height dwarfing me in shadow. I barely
register the flash of blue eyes before they tilt my face up and kiss me, a
tongue tasting the corner of my mouth and a lip tracing the curve of my cupid’s
bow. The kiss spreads buzzing heat from my tongue, to my throat, to my lungs,
to my heart, all the way down to my stomach and even below that. Everything is
on fire. I can’t breathe – the kiss has me frozen, locked in place, completely
immobile. This is my first. This is my first kiss and I’m going weak in the
knees, I’m making some kind of stupid little moan. How moronic am I for
reacting in such a cliché way? How stupid am I for letting this person –<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

Hey everyone! Now that the ARRANGED series has come to a close, I'm working on the first book in my newest romance - LOVELY VICIOUS. It's got a girl with trust issues looking to start over, a heartbreakingly hot guy who doesn't trust anyone, and the sparks that collide when they meet!<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Here's a first teaser!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Oh shit,” Kayla hisses suddenly. “I didn’t know he’d be here.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>I look to where her eyes are riveted. It’s
unmistakable who she’s talking about. Amid the chaos of the wiener throwing and
drunk flail-dancing to the Black Eyed Peas is a single island of still calm. He’s
gotta be six feet at least. His shoulders are broad, and everything about him
is lean – his waist, his long legs, his ridiculously sharp cheekbones. His messy
hair isn’t quite blonde, but isn’t quite brown either - more like a tumbleweed
color. Next to me, Kayla is ogling him with all she’s got, and she isn’t the
only one. Girls froze when he walked in, and guys are throwing him stink eye.
Whoever he is, I can already tell he’s one of those people who are popular in
all the wrong ways. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>He walks further into the party, keeping to himself.
Normally you nod at people as you walk in, or look for someone you know in the
sea of the crowd. But not this guy. He just walks. He doesn’t have to push or
shove his way through – people part naturally. It’s like he’s got an invisible
shield around him. He wears a permanent bored expression, like everything
around him is completely uninteresting. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“That’s Jack. Jack Hunter,” Kayla whispers. “He
never comes to parties like this. They’re way beneath him.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Beneath him?
He’s in high school, Kayla, not the royal goddamn court.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“He’s got a nickname around here; Ice Prince. So he
sort of is royalty.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>I laugh. When Kayla’s face remains serious, I stop.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Wait, you’re not kidding? You guys actually call
him that?” <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>She flushes. “Well, yeah! Just like we call Carlos
the Mexican quarterback Hot Tortilla and the creepy guy with too many knives
who likes to hang around the library Creeper McJeepers. Jack is Ice Prince because
that’s what he is!”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;"><i>I
splutter another laugh, and this one must be too loud, because it makes Jack
look up. Now that he’s closer I can see his face well. </i></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>Kayla’s whispering ‘he’s cute’ to me, but that’s not
it at all. He’s not baby-faced cute
in the way girls giggle about during sleepovers and between classes. He’s
handsome; the kind of lion-eyed, sharp-nosed, broad-lipped handsome you see in
Italian suit ads. I can see why they call him Ice Prince. Aside from the thick fog
of pretentiousness that follows him, his eyes are the color of a lake frozen
through – a blue so light it looks almost translucent. And they’re looking
right at me. Kayla makes a noise disturbingly similar to a small monkey and
hides behind my shoulder. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“He’s looking at us!” She hisses. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Why are you hiding?”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>Kayla mumbles something into my shirt. I roll my
eyes. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“You like him.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Not so loud!” She pinches my neck and pulls. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Ow, ow!
You can’t have my vertebrae, I need those!” <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>“Then don’t say dumb things like that so loud!”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

like him!”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>She twists, and I yelp. Our din is doing nothing to
avert Jack’s eyes - or anyone else’s. I manage to pry her fingers off the part
of my nervous system that makes sure I keep breathing and duck into the bathroom
to pee. The toilet’s a mess, and I pat it in sympathy on my way out. Stay
strong, buddy. One way or another, this will all be over soon. Either we’ll all
drop dead of alcohol poisoning, or your bowl will erode from the acidity of the
gallons of vomit you’ve been subjected to. Do they give you retirement
benefits? No? They should. We should protest. Picket. Toilet Union United. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%;"><i>When I’m done talking to the toilet in a completely
sane manner, I walk out to the exact thing I didn’t want to see; Kayla,
downstairs again. But the boys are leaving her alone. All except one. Or
rather, it’s one boy she’s not
leaving alone.<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

Tonight’s an exception.” He looks around the room, his lip curling. “But you
do, I’m guessing.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

friends.”<o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

tight I can’t feel my fingers. I shove the red-faced boy who tries to hit on me
again aside and launch myself through the crowd. Kayla isn’t my friend. No one
here is. But she’s been four seconds of nice to me - true nice, not Avery’s sugary
poison of inviting-me-to-the-weird-test-party nice. And four seconds is more
than I ever thought I’d get. It’s the most I’ve had in a long time. Jack’s lip
quirks up in a sneer. Say it. Say one more thing, pretty boy. I dare you to. <o:p></o:p></i></span></div>

<br />
To the fantastic community - my love for you is boundless. You have shown me nothing but kindness and acceptance, and you are what makes publishing my work such a joy. Thank you.<br />

<br />
First of all, I wanted to apologize for the long hiatus. I've been struggling with a bit of depression and have only recently clawed my way out of it. Honestly it was a long and terrible process, and combined with a bunch of other life problems, including close family passing, I just had to put writing on the backburner.<br />
<br />
<br />
I'm so, so sorry, and apologizing will never really make up for it, which is why I'm working extra hard on finishing DISARRANGED and releasing to you amazing readers.<br />
<br />
I've picked up DISARRANGED once again, and I'm very close to finishing! I'll be posting teasers leading up to the release date, which is scheduled for (drumroll please);<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><u>OCTOBER 1st!!!</u></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><u><br /></u></span>
Thank you again for your patience, dear readers, and I hope you're looking forward to the release of DISARRANGED as much as I am!<br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">Brendan’s kiss was so nice it leaves me in a daze – until
I spot Lee, leaning against a cardboard cutout for a kid’s squirrel movie and
texting on his phone. He looks up as I approach, and for a second I see
something flash behind his honey-colored eyes. It makes him look young, unsure.
He’s nervous. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“So,” He tries to sound casual, but the word is a little
too anxious and high. “Was he any good? Did he slobber? God, I hope he
slobbered a lot.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“He was fine,” I fill up the soda cup. Lee snorts, a
half-chuckle, half-dismissive cough. I arch a brow at him. “What?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“You said ‘fine’. That tells me all I need to know.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I liked it.” I frown and stare at the floor to avoid
looking at his self-satisfied smirk. “He was gentle, and –”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">A shadow falls over me and warm, rough hands grab my chin
and turn it, Lee’s mouth snagging my lips between his teeth. He bites, soft at
first and then hard enough I feel skin break and I let out a whimper, the
beginnings of a plea for him to stop, but he pulls away before blood. He kisses
the bruise tenderly, like an apology, like it’ll make it better, and kisses the
corner of my lips before pulling me flush against him, one hand laced in my
hair and the other around my waist and his head in my neck.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">And that’s when I realize he’s shaking. His whole body is
wracked with the slightest shivers, invisible when he’s standing far away but
with him against me I can feel every one of them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I can’t,” His voice is so low I strain to hear it. “I
don’t want to lose you again. These weeks of trying to forget you was torture.
It didn’t matter what I did or how many times, I always left unsatisfied. They
couldn’t feed me, not the way you do with your smile. Your smell. You don’t
even have to touch me and I feel like everything is alright with the world. Just
being around you is enough.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">He tightens his hug, my short, uneven breath becoming
more ragged as he squeezes me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“You can choose him. I’ll be okay. Just let me see you
sometimes, alright? I don’t think…I don’t think I can leave you alone for good.
I get sick to my stomach just thinking about it.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Lee –” I gasp. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I’m sorry!” He lets go and backs up and I gulp air.
“Jesus, I didn’t - I’m sorry. Are you okay? God, I’m fucking this up. I’m
fucking it up, aren’t I? I’m like a clingy little girl. Shit!” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“N-No,” My breathing returns to a slightly more normal
pace. “It’s fine. Really.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Why should I? Why did I ever think that kiss was
something genuine? God, I’m an idiot.” I laugh. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“It <i>was</i> genuine
–” He scowls. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“How genuine is it when you turn around and sleep with my
roommate?” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“For the last time, I didn’t know she was your roommate!”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“So if she wasn’t, it’d be okay to sleep with her anyway.
Just as long as I didn’t know. You really are a sleazy man-slut.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I didn’t sleep with her! She just –” He runs a
frustrated hand through his hair. “She said she wasn’t feeling it and took off.
And I fell asleep in her bed half-dressed. I promise you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“But you threw yourself at her anyway.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I said I’d leave you alone and I am. I’m trying to
forget you, Rose.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Right.” My laugh is louder this time. “Well, good luck
with that.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I turn to storm out the door when he grabs my hand and
pulls me into him. On top of him. We tumble onto my bed, his chest pinned
beneath mine and his eyes burning into me. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Since the first time we ran into each other, every
girl’s bed I’ve slept in, I’ve wished with all my heart it was yours instead,”
He murmurs. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Liar.” I snarl. “Let me go!” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I stop struggling when his hand ghosts up my back, plays
with the hem of my shirt, and dips below it, fingers tracing my spine so
tenderly I nearly let out a gasp. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Every girl,” Lee leans up, planting kisses on my
jugular. “Every touch, every moan, every sensation, I imagined was coming from
you. Because of you. Do you know what that does to a person’s mind? I’m insane
now. Insane because of you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">His fingers reach my bra clasp and he undoes them easily
and caresses the expanse of skin now freed. His hand inches around my ribcage
and up just a little, where the swell of my breasts begin. I instinctively drop
my head into the crook of his neck, too weak to hold it up. My face is on fire.
This is wrong. So wrong. Lee’s mouth is right next to my ear as he speaks, low
and soft. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Take some responsibility for what you’ve done to me.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">Something hard and insistent presses against my thigh,
and my entire body feels like it’s going to burst into flames. That hard
pressure brings reality into the heady mix of my emotions – this is real. This
is very real. And if I don’t stop it, it’s going to spiral out of control and
he’ll get exactly what he wants – me, wrapped around his finger enough to marry
him, and then the money is his. He’ll keep me in a web of lies and this heated
passion for three months if I let him. This isn’t love. This is him playing me
like a piano. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Only three more days till Friday. Hang in there, okay? I know I am, barely!<br />
<br />
Today I wanted to share a little about my inspiration for Lee Montenegro, the smoldering playboy that tries his damndest to capture Rose's heart in <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17164645-arranged">ARRANGED</a>.<br />
<br />
I modeled him after Jon Kortajarena, a Spanish model and all around BEAUTIFULLY hot guy. Have some drool-worthy pictures of him, why don't you? ;)<br />
<br />
Add <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/17164645-arranged">ARRANGED</a> to your Goodreads!<br />

And while you're oogling him, don't forget to read an <a href="http://sarawolfbooks.blogspot.com/2013/01/wow-thank-you-guys-so-much-for-liking.html">excerpt from ARRANGED, here!</a><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I get changed – Grace’s pajamas almost too small. I
shuffle to the bathroom, trying to stay quiet so I don’t bug anyone. I reach
for the door handle just as someone opens it. Steam pours out and Lee stands in
the doorway, towel wrapped around his waist and bronze chest bare. His wet hair
hangs in his surprised eyes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Geez, what is this – the second time you’ve seen me naked?
Do you have special sensing whiskers for this shit or something?” He asks. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I glue my eyes to the ceiling. “Sorry. Um. I just wanted
to brush my teeth.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Apology not accepted.” He leans in, so close I can see
the water droplets stuck on his chest. I’m suddenly hyper aware of the way
Grace’s pajamas don’t cover all of my stomach and legs. I hadn’t noticed it the
first time we ran into each other – literally – but his physique isn’t bulky at
all. He has broad shoulders but a narrow waist tapering into his towel. His arm
and stomach muscles have the barest definition. His skin is dusky and the skin
hairs light, surprisingly light for how dark his head hair is. He has a small
mole on his neck and for some reason that snaps me back to reality – he’s a
real, breathing person and I’m standing here gawking and making a fool of
myself. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I just, if you’re done, I need to –” I try to squeeze
around him, but he blocks the door with his body. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Need to what?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">He smiles and leans closer. “That’s more like it. Using
your words and asking for what you want clearly is always a good thing.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">His heat engulfs me, and I feel hesitant featherlight
touches on the back of my neck as his hand ghosts up it. I jerk away. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Don’t play me like this.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“Trying to get me in your bed won’t make me like you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I could probably change your mind about that once we’re
in it.” He grins. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">“I won’t marry you, ever,” I hiss. “And I won’t let you
toy with me just so you can get that money.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I dart into the steamy bathroom. When I hear him walk
down the hall and go into his room I breathe a sigh of relief. That was too
close. My hands and heart are trembling, and I feel like I’m running a fever. I
brush my teeth and stare at my reflection. I’m nothing special. Nothing
compared to the sorority girls he probably sleeps with. There’s no way he’s
attracted to me. He doesn’t even know me that well. So he has to be playing me,
toying with me for the money. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 200%; mso-ansi-language: EN;">I feel sick.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 200%; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; tab-stops: .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: .5in;">

<br />
Hey everyone! Sara here. I've started a blog and am still getting used to it! Happy holidays, too. Christmas is just around the corner. I hope you're keeping warm and cozy - I'm wearing two sweaters right now it's so cold. :P<br />
<br />
Right now I'm going through the final passes of my book, ARRANGED, and I'm really nervous. It feels like I started this book ages ago, when in reality it was just nine months. People have babies in that time! In a way, ARRANGED<i> is</i> my baby. It's been an absolute joy to raise and write this book and to see it published is going to make me cross off another thing on my bucket list.<br />
<br />
Here's a bit about ARRANGED for anyone who's curious!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN"><i><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 200%;">When straight-A 20-year-old Rose Jensen’s grandfather dies,
he leaves her enough money to save her parents’ failing business and get her
through UCLA. The only catch – she has
to marry Lee Montenegro, the infuriating half-Spanish, all-playboy transfer. Rose and Lee’s grandfathers were fast friends, and betrothed their
grandchildren to each other. Lee wants the money to run
from his suffocating family, and turns his full burning charisma on Rose, but
she won’t give in. She’ll never marry someone she </span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 32.727272033691406px;">doesn't</span></span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 200%;"> love, and who </span><span style="line-height: 32.727272033691406px;">doesn't</span><span style="line-height: 200%;"> love her. But memories of a mysterious boy in her childhood haunt her, and Lee
insists they know each other. With her parent’s pressures mounting, her
scholarship slipping, and Lee’s advances heating up with more than just money-lust,
Rose is torn between doing the right thing for her family, and doing the right thing for her heart. </span></span></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN"><i><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;"><span style="line-height: 200%;"><br /></span></span></i></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 0.5in;">
<span lang="EN"></span></div>
<div style="text-indent: 0px;">
I'm so thrilled to be looking for a cover and doing all the things an author gets to do. I hope you all love the book as much as I do, and I'll be doing several pre-release teasers over the next month or so! </div>
<div style="text-indent: 0px;">

<div style="text-indent: 0px;">
Thanks for reading!</div>
