Just found out the other day that No Turning Back<\/a><\/em> has finaled in the OKRWA National Readers’ Choice Awards<\/a>! I was ecstatic to hear the news, even before<\/em> I found out the book had been nominated for best romantic suspense with this list:<\/p>\n

Cold Sight<\/em> by Leslie Parrish
\nNo Turning Back<\/em> by Kaylea Cross
\nEdge of Sight<\/em> by Roxanne St.Claire
\nA Rancher\u2019s Brand of Justice<\/em> by Ann Voss Peterson
\nKiller Heat<\/em> by Brenda Novak
\nDesperate Deeds<\/em> by Dee Davis <\/p>\n

The winner will be announced at RWA Nationals in July. There’s no way I’ll win the category against competition like that, but I’m just tickled the judges loved the story so much. Especially because I represent a little e-publisher \ud83d\ude42 And, obviously I’m thrilled to have finaled amongst this group of powerhouse authors.<\/p>\n

Like I’ve said before, Ben was a difficult hero for me to write, and the book is so violent and graphic it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, so finaling in a contest like this means a lot! If you love to root for the underdog, please send out good thoughts for Ben and Sam’s story.<\/p>\n
