Description:
Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett had always been one
to think out-of-the-box, who knew she wanted something more in life than
following the same repetitive patterns and growing old with the same repetitive
life story. And she thought that her life was going in the right direction
until everything fell apart.
Determined not to dwell on the negative and push
forward, Camryn is set to move in with her best friend and plans to start a new
job. But after an unexpected night at the hottest club in downtown North Carolina,
she makes the ultimate decision to leave the only life she’s ever known, far
behind.
With a purse, a cell phone and a small bag with a
few necessities, Camryn, with absolutely no direction or purpose boards a
Greyhound bus alone and sets out to find herself. What she finds is a guy named
Andrew Parrish, someone not so very different from her and who harbors his own
dark secrets. But Camryn swore never to let down her walls again. And she vowed
never to fall in love.
But with Andrew, Camryn finds herself doing a lot of
things she never thought she’d do. He shows her what it’s really like to live
out-of-the-box and to give in to her deepest, darkest desires. On their
sporadic road-trip he becomes the center of her exciting and daring new life,
pulling love and lust and emotion out of her in ways she never imagined
possible. But will Andrew’s dark secret push them inseparably together, or tear
them completely apart?

THE
EDGE OF NEVER Excerpt #1 – Camryn and Andrew Shopping
We head over to the medicines and there’s a
middle-aged couple standing in front of the cough syrup, reading the labels.
Andrew says casually, without lowering his voice,
“Babe, did you find that yeast infection stuff?”
My eyes spring open and I freeze in front of the
Tylenol.
He removes a small box of Advil from the shelf.
The couple pretends not to have heard what he
said, but I know they heard him.
“I mean are you even sure that’s what’s causing
the itch?” he goes on and I’m literally melting from the heat in my face.
The couple does glance over this time, covertly.
Andrew is grinning his ass off at me from the
side, pretending to be reading labels.
I want to smack him, but instead, I play him at
his own game.
“Yeah, baby I found it,” I say as casually as he
had, “what about you? Did you see if they have extra-small sized condoms?”
The woman turns her head and looks right at him,
up and down, and then she eyes me before going back to reading labels.
Andrew doesn’t break; somehow I knew he wouldn’t.
He just smiles over at me, enjoying every second of this.
“One size fits all, baby,” he says, “I told you
they fill out better when you can actually make it hard.”
A spitting noise bursts from between my lips
followed by laughter.
The couple leaves the aisle.
Author Bio below and author pic attached to email:
Author of THE DARKWOODS TRILOGY and DIRTY EDEN, mother, werewolf & zombie fanatic, book addict and a happy hermit obsessed with the Universe. Oh, and AMC’s “The Walking Dead”.
Addictions: Starbucks every morning, trolling Barnes & Noble’s shelves once a week, detesting winter, shopping flea markets and preparing for the collapse of society as we know it. Do I own a tin foil hat? Maybe. :-)
I was born in Arkansas and have lived here most of my life, except the couple of times when I lived in Pennsylvania. I started my first novel at the age of thirteen and have been writing something ever since. Generally, I love characters in life and on paper. I pay attention to people, especially those whose personalities make them different from the rest of us: the drug addict roaming the Laundromat that talks to himself, the young, inattentive mother in the park with the meanest kid on the playground – (the entire cast of ‘Swamp People’) – characters fascinate me and I hope that it shows in my literary work.
Some authors that inspire me are Neil Gaiman, Anne Rice, Cormac McCarthy, Max Brooks, J.K. Rowling, Richard Matheson, William R. Forstchen, Carrie Ryan, David Moody, Phillipa Gregory and Lisa Smedman. I’m always on the lookout for the next great book to pull me into its world and piss me off when I read the last page and know that it’s over.
I’m a sucker for anything Christopher Lee, Ralph Fiennes, Edward Norton and Cate Blanchett. But my biggest fan-girl superstars are Alex Filippenko, Michio Kaku, Brian Cox, Michelle Thaller and Neil Degrasse Tyson!
Also, almost more than anything I
love nature and this beautiful planet that I live on. I just wish everyone else
did too….
