\"\"Kris’s Top 3 Halloween Candies!<\/strong><\/p>\n

#3 – Starburst – Sticky, sweet, and sour. I love Starburst. Top 3 flavors? Strawberry, cherry, and lemon.<\/p>\n

#2 – Twix – They\u2019re built for sharing, but who am I kidding? I\u2019m eating both.<\/p>\n

And #1 – Snickers is the king of candy bars. My favorites are the bite-sized ones. I throw them in the freezer until they\u2019re hard enough to crack my teeth. Perfection!<\/p>\n

Author Bio:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kris Jayne is a devoted writer, reader, and traveler. She spends her days blissfully sweating out the writing process in the Dallas area with her dogs, Otis the Shih Tzu, Rocco the Terrier, and Red the Foxy Mutt.<\/p>\n

Her passion for writing is only matched by her passion for the adventures of travel. In 2008, she let a friend talk her into sleeping outside for the first time in her life when she climbed Mount Kilimanjaro.<\/p>\n

P.S. If you’re buying her a gift, she has a penchant for single-malt Scotch and scarves.<\/p>\n

\"\"Featured Book Title: Kisses & Kismet<\/strong><\/p>\n

Release Date: October 31, 2019<\/p>\n

Blurb:<\/strong><\/p>\n

A psychic. A ghost. A hero with a sly secret…<\/p>\n

Lilith Carver will do anything to help her estranged foster sister, Kali, and prove her loyalty\u2014despite a past that has kept them apart. With Kali\u2019s lover dead and her sister facing eviction, Lilith will even tap into her repressed mystical gifts to find out what the man\u2019s son is hiding. She\u2019s on a mission, and she won\u2019t let Jamie\u2019s magnetism\u2014or dark inklings about her sister\u2014keep her from winning.<\/p>\n

Jamie Wylde has a chance to right the wrongs of his father and send the man\u2019s mistress packing. With one clandestine maneuver, he can exclude the homewrecker from the Wylde fortune and reinstate his mother in their family home. He knows how to handle Kali, but her provocative sister is another story. Somehow, Lilith senses the truth, and she\u2019s on a crusade to stop him.<\/p>\n

Lilith and Jamie sharpen each other\u2019s swords as soon as they meet, sparking more than anger. With battle lines drawn, their growing connection becomes as impossible to ignore as it is to sever. They soon discover that winning might mean losing their one shot at happiness.<\/p>\n

Equally matched in every way, can they triumph in love?<\/p>\n

Excerpt:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jamie lifted his chin to a haughty angle, but his evasive glance told me I was right. Preston was trying to tell me something. If I wanted to help Kali, I would have to set fire to the carefully reinforced walls at the edges of my psyche and listen.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd you should be more careful of the truth,\u201d I snapped.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo. Your sister should.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat does that mean?\u201d I edged closer to him.<\/p>\n

\u201cAsk her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re deflecting.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t have to listen to this.\u201d He flipped the watch at his wrist to eye level. \u201cShit. I\u2019m supposed to be somewhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can\u2019t run away. This isn\u2019t over, you know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOddly, I do,\u201d he grunted with a grim smile. \u201cYou\u2019re relentless.\u201d<\/p>\n

I took another step forward and poked the center of his chest. The grumble of my own voice through clenched teeth shocked even me. \u201cYou have no idea.\u201d<\/p>\n

His gaze snatched down to mine as he took a half step back, trapped against the open door of his fancy car. Tingles of the electricity between us crackled on my skin. My breath quickened.<\/p>\n

The dim light of the parking garage played with the angles of his face. The perfection crumbled. A rogue curl of dark hair slipped to his forehead. The arrogant mask he wore fell away revealing confusion, trepidation, and hurt.<\/p>\n

He straightened his shoulders, adding to his height as he stared down at me, and sneered. \u201cIs this your plan? You corner me in a parking garage and start touching me and giving me your best siren\u2019s eyes?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSiren\u2019s eyes?\u201d<\/p>\n

He cackled and lifted his hands up as if touching me might give him some incurable disease. \u201cGod, you and your sister are alike. But I\u2019m not my father. I\u2019m not going to let a little horniness make me lose my mind.\u201d<\/p>\n

I covered my mouth and mockingly wretched. \u201cUgh. I\u2019m going to lose my lunch.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cReally?\u201d He snickered under his breath. \u201cYes. That\u2019s why you touched me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was making a point. If you\u2019re horny, that\u2019s your problem.\u201d Still, I stepped away from him. \u201cJust know that I\u2019m not going to let you railroad my sister.\u201d<\/p>\n

I spun on my heels and stormed away, not totally sure where I parked or if I was even on the right level of the parking garage, but I didn\u2019t dare risk looking confused. I kept walking to the other side of the elevator. Finally, the screech of his car down the exit ramp pierced through the roar of rushing blood in my ears. I closed my eyes, clenching and unclenching my fists to relax.<\/p>\n

If I was going to fight for Kali, I needed to get my emotions under control. Because when they controlled me, that was a disaster.<\/p>\n
