As you get to know Britt and Cooper in TWICE THE TEMPTATION, you’ll understand why their relationship is a stormy one. And it doesn’t have anything to do with the fact they met during a hurricane. 😉 The ebook is available everywhere now, paperbacks will be out next week, or you can order your paperback from Harlequin! I hope you enjoy the wild ride that the duty-bound CEO Cooper takes with his daring stormchaser Britt. Just click on the cover or the title for buy links. Would you like to ride along with a stormchaser? I’ve been there, done that. I’ll stay home and watch it on TV. 😉

Yay! More RDR for me to read! No more babies here… ever… But yay for cupcakes!
I’ve never ridden with stormchasers, but I used to watch the show. And every rare once in a while, I see a stormchasing vehicle out and about. Storms are interesting, but you couldn’t catch me chasing one. I don’t even like to drive when it’s raining anymore. I can do it, but it’s not on my top 10 of things I enjoy.
I’m with you. I’d rather stay in and watch on TV or through the window! That said, I did a fair bit when I was younger and stupider. Now I’d rather write about someone else’s “adventures.” 😉
