First off, I want to add my voice to those of other readers who are frustrated and angered by this newest plagiarism issue (if you somehow missed it yesterday, Dear Author broke the story HERE.) In the past I would have just been upset and felt horrible for the authors who were the victims of theft (having something stolen from you always feels more than intrusive) as well as the readers who paid good money for a new story. Not {Read More}
When Pen Names Collide
June 27, 2013 by Leave a Comment
I think we’re all on the same page at this point that Bria and Caitie are both me. No more weird surprises for you guys. But, now I’ve noticed something odd… something I noticed before but has become more obvious. Me and the whole New Adult thing. Previously several people had tagged my Caitie books as New Adult. I guess in some ways my characters do fall into that potential age bracket, but I’d always just thought of them as {Read More}
A Love Letter To My Agency
June 21, 2013 by 6 Comments
Being basically anonymous while I was putting out my Rom Com Novellas as Caitie Quinn was hard… sometimes heartbreakingly so. No matter how much help I had along the way, not “being me” often made me feel alone on the journey — and lowered my expectations of how the release of Wreckless would go. I expected a little bit of pimping and a few sales and hoped that slowly it would build up enough steam that it would find readers. {Read More}
The Jake Moore List
June 20, 2013 by Leave a Comment
In keeping with Bridget’s Rebellion List, we may have tweeted a Jake Moore List yesterday. It’s not quite as scandalous as her Rebellion List, but it’s getting there 😉 1. No one knows where he’s been for the last two years. Who doesn’t love a man of mystery? 2. He drives a beat up old pick up truck. Pick up trucks have beds. You do the math. 3. He’s hot. Period. The tattoo doesn’t hurt. 4. Boundaries aren’t something he {Read More}

Wreckless…Where obsession and rebellion collide. Bridget Larson’s never met a rule she didn’t like.

Salvation… A bad boy and his jacked up pickup. Jake {Read More}

WRECKLESS – Cover Reveal
June 10, 2013 by 8 Comments
I’ve been dying to show this thing off all week. It gave me goosebumps the first time I saw it and when my paper ARC came I just kept patting the cover…. sooooo pretty. But, it was really different than what I’d had in mind. People talk about how you have all this control when you go indie, but in some ways, I feel like it’s really a practice in relinquishing control. I am not a pre-visual person. Show me a {Read More}
WRECKLESS ~ Jake Moore
June 7, 2013 by Leave a Comment
I managed to nail down Jake Moore, the guy Bridget meets during her Night of Rebellion (that’s so much more exciting with caps, isn’t it?) and get him to answer some of my… well, someone’s questions. I have to admit, he was a really good sport about it. ~~*~~ Bria: Hi, Jake. Thanks for stopping by. JAKE: Um… No problem. BRIA: So, I have some questions here from a reader, Valerie Cole. She wants to know first off, what do you {Read More}
WRECKLESS – Chapter One
June 6, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Chapter One “Are you calling me a liar?” The whole situation was unbelievable. You’d think having spent years trying to be the perfect daughter would grant me the benefit of the doubt in a sticky situation. I don’t mean years spent convincing people you’re the perfect daughter. I mean working pretty darn hard to be as good a daughter as you could possibly be. Mama cocked an eyebrow at me as if she could bring herself to say, Yes, {Read More}
