Even Though You're Wrong

It's finished -- my very first Romance! Let me tell you a little bit about it:

• It's about young love. When the story opens, Tara Stone is 18 years old.
• It's about belief systems, and how sometimes they strengthen and lift us up, and other times they blind us and hold us back.
• It's about complex family relationships and healing.
• It's pretty clean! There is some language, but not a ton, and no sex scenes.
• There will be more books about these characters!

I got the idea for this book a very long time ago. In fact, I wrote a version of it back in 2017, but it was a hot mess! In the end, I hated the way I told the story, but I knew the bones were good, and I wanted to try again. I re-wrote the entire thing and made it five-thousand times better.

Tara is a good Christian girl. Jared is an atheist. They are both wrong. They are both right. I wrote a story that's close to my heart as I attempted to show that nothing is black and white and that it's possible to learn something from different viewpoints. Beliefs don't have to divide us.

First Things First, Let Me Introduce Myself

I'm surrounded by boys, and I write about love. That's funny, right? I think it's funny. Sometimes I wear pink when I don't even want to, and add flowers to all of the decor in our home just to make sure my femininity is noticed. It's loud at our house, and there are dirty socks, video games, and "weapons" everywhere, but really, my boys are the best. I think I'll keep them.

I've been writing since I learned to hold a pencil and spell the word "the," and in the back of my sixth-grade yearbook, it says that I'm going to be an author. Kids know things, so... 

Words are my happy place. I love how you can say so much and bring someone's imagination to life with just a few, well-chosen words. It's a beautiful thing. I like the stories that make you ugly-cry and soul-search. I like the ones that keep you on the edge of your seat, skimming the words like a crazy person, so you can find out what happens next! I like the ones that make you laugh out loud, and the ones that make you sigh because they're so damn cute. Basically, I like all the stories.

Besides writing, I'm a fan of creating Pinterest fails, begging my kids to sleep, and pretending that I like working out.

Fun Facts about me:

• Nicole is my middle name. 
• I lived in the Amazon Jungle for three months.
• I pushed out my two babies without drugs, like a crazy person.
• I lost my first baby when I was ten weeks pregnant.
• I am a PPD survivor.
• I hate social media.
• I've been with my husband for over ten years, and we can still make each other laugh.
• I'm a friendly ex-Mormon. 
• I'm a tech wife that could spend hours debating the best VR headsets and the best VR use-cases. I had a headset before it was cool.
• I didn't initially want to write Romance. I thought I was a cynic, then I tried Romance, and it was fun! WHAT??? (I don't write erotica... just sayin'. If you like to read it or write it, though, you do you!)
• I'm pretty much as sarcastic as they come.
