Amazon MP3 - iTunes - and more...
There are a lot of authors who blog about the soundtracks they listened to while writing a book. Me? I wrote song lyrics that told part of the story of Erin and Chance's romance in Crash and Burn. Then what? I found a groovy studio guy - Thanks JT Nolan! - and a talented young woman to write the music, arrange it, and sing their love song -- Thanks Lauren Kayley!
What happened next? A song was born. It's not Katy Perry, it's not freaking Mozart, but it moves. And every time I listen to the song it makes me want to dance -- and jump around with glee because I know the actual (yet fictional) people the song was written for. I know them intimately, because their entire love story is told in Crash and Burn. Chance Walker and Erin Michaelson are part of me now, and so is their music. Even better? I know they got their happily ever after.
The BOOK: Crash and Burn will be out January 14 (Pre-order now at
Apple and
Amazon)
The SONG: Crash and Burn (mp3) comes out on iTunes and Amazon later this month.
Happy Reading - and Listening!

Crash and Burn (Book blurb)
Every love story should have its own song...
A childhood promise has Chance Walker picking up a guitar once again. Sure, he's been busy growing up, finishing college, and even law school. He made a promise to his dying mother and he’s determined to keep it. While his guitar playing dreams were big when he was a kid, his skill is rusty and he hires Erin Michaelson to bring music back into his life. Not only is she incredibly talented, she's one of the sexiest women he’s ever met. It's hard to focus on correct finger position when her sweet scent threatens to drive him out of his mind.
Less than twenty-four hours after his first lesson he sees her again, but this time she’s on stage using another name and seducing an entire audience of men. He played the gentleman card once, and it got him nowhere. This time, all bets are off and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her. A single, sizzling backstage kiss will change both of their lives forever, because Chance soon realizes that Erin is not just an itch, she’s an obsession that he refuses to live without.
Erin Michaelson spends her days teaching guitar and her nights on stage as her sexy alter-ego, Eva James. Music is her dream, her passion. All she wants is to say goodbye to a lifetime of scraping by, working two jobs, and paying for past mistakes. When a major record label exec hears her band play, she gets her big break. But life can be a real bitch, and meeting Chance now is just bad timing.
Problem #1: The record label wants her to dump her band and move to L.A. Problem #2: She hadn’t counted on Chance Walker and the scorching heat of that first kiss. And last but not least is Problem #3: Is Chance really falling in love with the dull guitar teacher, or is he really just lusting after the sexy Eva James?
Will success make all of Erin's dreams come true? Or will falling in love make them both crash and burn?
