Can a Hollywood Hunk find real love? Find out in the latest from Select Contemporary...

Her chance to write a whole new ending...

Hollywood screenwriter Samantha Dekker spent the last year picking up the pieces after her husband's suicide. Along with grief, guilt, and tabloid hell, she's had to watch helplessly as the film industry slammed its doors in her face. Now Sam has the rarest of Hollywood opportunities - a second chance...working with the one man she swore never to see again.

Hunktastic A-lister Gage Cutler knows that Sam blamed him for his part in her husband's death. Still, Sam is the one woman he can never forget. All he wants is a second chance of his own - to prove he's not the player she remembers. And Malibu is the perfect backdrop to make a girl swoon.

Except they're not alone. Someone is watching Sam and Gage's steamy off-screen romance with the most dangerous of intentions...
Thank you,

Glenda, Charlie and David Cates

Recovery In Motion is hosting, Sept. 5th, 2015.

This morning I would like to introduce you to a lady I meet at the NRH Recreation Center last weekend and her run/walk because my dad was a alcholic and so was David. Now mind you I did not lose a child to this. But I did lose my daughter. So if I can help someone else that has lost a child then I know I did the right thing. 

So Please take the time to read the little bit she sent me. Then look through the information I posted and Please help us out. But not only that Please share the information with everyone you know as the more people who share it the more she can do!!

http://www.recoveryinmotion.org/



This is our first major public fundraiser and I ask you to  help us raise more awareness to all parents, guardians, and children alike.


The run/walk event will help us run our yearly campaigns where we serve to the recovery communities when and where needed.  Feel free to pass the sponsor packet onto anyone who wishes to provide a sponsorship.  We have several platforms available for everyone, even ones where people can walk in honor or memory of a loved one and their name and info would go on the back of the shirt, etc.
So you know a little abut us and what the money will be used for...We provide job resume help, job search assistance, interview outfits, toiletries to sober living/transitional housing/treatment centers 
across North Texas.  The run will also provide seed money for our new endeavor, "Miles of Smiles".  It is a dental assistance fund that we are using to help change the lives of those living a life of recovery, boosting their self esteem/confidence, so that they will feel better about themselves, help them get job promotions that were near impossible due to their smile, help correct poor eating habits, etc.

Never start a fire you can’t control…

Connor Bannon is supposed to be dead. Dishonorably discharged from the Navy SEALs, he's spent the last two years working as a street enforcer in Brooklyn for his cousin's crime ring. Through a twist of fate, he's now in Chicago, working undercover to bust criminals. But when a cute little arsonist joins the team—all combat boots, tiny jean shorts, and hot-pink hair—Connor’s notorious iron control slips.

Erin "she's getting away" O'Dea knows two things. She hates authority. And… Nope, that's it. When she's forced to operate on the “right” side of the law, her fear of being confined and controlled blazes to the surface. The last thing she expects is a control freak like Connor to soothe her when she needs it most. Worse, something behind the sexy ex-soldier's eyes ignites a dangerous inferno of desire. One that invites Erin to play with fire. And one that could get them both killed…

About Tessa Bailey

tessa bailey
Tessa Bailey is originally from Carlsbad, California. The day after high school graduation, she packed her yearbook, ripped jeans and laptop, driving cross-country to New York City in under four days.
Her most valuable life experiences were learned thereafter while waitressing at K-Dees, a Manhattan pub owned by her uncle. Inside those four walls, she met her husband, best friend and discovered the magic of classic rock, managing to put herself through Kingsborough Community College and the English program at Pace University at the same time. Several stunted attempts to enter the work force as a journalist followed, but romance writing continued to demand her attention.
She now lives in Brooklyn, New York with her husband of seven years and three-year-old daughter. Although she is severely sleep-deprived, she is incredibly happy to be living her dream of writing about people falling in love.
