I met Devyn at a Writing Conference in North Carolina. Not only is she amazing, but she is always one of the first people to jump in and lend a hand or offer encouragement.
It's just another reason I'm looking forward to going to UtopYa in June--Devyn will be there! Plus, I'll get to meet some of the other lovelies I've only communicated with online so far.
I'll be equal parts friend and fan girl.
But back to sharing. Enjoy the latest from Devyn!!

Killing Me Softly - A Broken Souls Novel
June 2014
Hey everyone, I have a new book coming out in June. I'm so excited for this book to get in your hands! It is a New Adult book about a girl who was always told to stay away from military guys. Her dad lived in fear that one day a military guy would come along and break her heart. I grew up by Tinker Air Force Base in Midwest City, Oklahoma and we were always warned about military boys. I met my husband 22 years ago while he was stationed at TAFB. This story isn't about anyone I know, but it's about everyone I've ever met. Not everyone is given the chance to live a charmed life, especially Holland. Read below for the synopsis of this dear to my heart book. Not every guy in the military is a killer, or angry, no, there's so many good guys looking for a good girl. I know, because I found one.
Please do me a huge favor and add it to your TBR list on Goodreads and share on Facebook. It is how authors like me get the word out! Thank you so much!!!
Facts – My best friend died six months ago. My mom bailed on me when I turned 13. My dad is mentally ill and a permanent fixture on our couch. We live on his disability and my meager paycheck. I take online college courses so I can work full time to pay for the electric bill. I’ve fallen head over heels for Tate Cook, he’s in the U.S. Air Force.
I’m Holland Clifford, I’m 19, and this is my life.
Once upon a time, I was whole… and then I was shattered. Tate’s picking up my pieces and putting me back together again.

The very moment she watched Kiefer Sutherland in Lost Boys she vowed to run off with him one day. Real life took over and she got married and had two amazing children. In her spare time and great weather, you’ll find her on the back of her husband’s motorcycle touring North Carolina. Devyn is an avid reader, she has given up Stephen King and reads mostly young adult books. She writes young adult paranormal books about werewolves, vampires and faeries. She loves happy endings, but offers twists and turns to get to them. Devyn has decided to dip her toe in the big-girl pond and write some books with just the right amount of steam and twists the fans won’t see coming.
