Rain by Christie Cote
Expected Release Date: May 6, 2014
Taylor Sullivan took her life for granted until she received news that would change her life forever. In a state of denial she met Kyle, who didn’t end up being what she expected. She wasn’t able to escape her new reality, but with his friendship, just maybe she could survive it.
“There is a flaw to your plan.” A sly grin crept onto his face once again.
My eyebrow arched at him questioningly.
“I live across the street,” he told me; and, without another word, he turned around toward his house. Then I realized what he’d meant. I’d told my problems to a stranger I would probably see again.

I was about to sit down when Kyle’s hand wrapped around my left wrist lightly and pulled up my arm. The suddenness of his touch was startling. I looked at him, confused, and saw fire in his eyes—raw anger I didn’t understand. His eyes looked up at me and penetrated mine.

Ashley’s palms started sweating as she clutched her paper in her hand. The room was going in and out of focus as she tried to speak, “I–uh–I,” she stammered. Everyone was looking at her as they started laughing, not even trying to hold back.
Throw Back Thursday
This is the beginning of one my first stories that I started writing titled Discovering Brightness.

“I’m not fragile,” I teased and kissed him harder. I supposed my bruise would say otherwise, but I didn’t want to be treated like I was going to shatter if someone touched me.
Rain Cover Reveal
07 Friday Feb 2014
I’m very excited to reveal the cover for my first novel Rain today. I have been dying to share it for months now, and I finally can. I spent countless hours sifting through images trying to find the perfect one until I found the image of a girl sitting on a bench. I manipulated the image in Photoshop, which yielded the cover below. I hope you like it.

Happy New Year and Midwinter’s Eve Giveaway Winner
01 Wednesday Jan 2014
Happy New Year everyone! I hope you had a fabulous 2013. I know I did. I hope 2014 will be even better and bring all kinds of amazing things.
I wrote two books in 2013, something I didn’t expect to do. In 2014, I plan to self publish the first one, Rain. I’m not big on making New Year’s resolutions, so I’m not. I’m going to continue what I started and hope for the best. I will continue to write and hopefully have more books written when I tumble into 2015. I won’t make ridiculous promises to myself, like I will write five books this year. I found that in the past when I made a New Year’s resolution promises, they never happen. They sound all great and doable on New year’s, but then the excitement disappears and I fall back into my bad habits. I don’t want to talk about all of the great things I want to do this year. I just want to start doing them.
Here is to a year of doing!
I want to thank everyone who visited and entered my Midwinter’s Eve giveaway.
