BLURB

I know what it’s like to have your heart split down the middle. 
One-half chases her. The other half chases after the lies, deceit, and betrayal. 
It’s a burning ball of hell. 
Seconds, minutes, hours, and years all spent endured the depth of my own burning inferno. 
All of it runs together while life passes me by.
Thirteen years ago, the woman I was in love with left me standing at the altar. 
Hurt. 
Broken. 
Humiliated. 
Some say thirteen is a lucky number. 
Me? I curse the number.
Now she’s back. 
Reminding me.
Torturing me.
She says things are not what they seem.
That they weren't then either.
Do I believe her?
Do I forgive? 
Forget? 
Time and truth will tell.

TRAILER















Excerpt


My insides
shake as she walks out with a warm breeze only to be replaced by the freezing
chills and the ice cold stare of Jude. He shuts the door behind him, stands
firmly in place and stares me down.
“That
intimidating look may work well on the criminals you pick
up; I assure you,
Jude,
it will not work on me. Now, what can I help you with?” Yes, I know that Tyson and his friends are
cops. I know everything there is to know about him. He left as planned for the
Army shortly after I left him. He’s a womanizer. Sleeps around, drinks and gets
into fights. He’s angry, bitter and out of control and it all reflects back on
me. I’ve studied the
symptoms of a broken
person. I’m one myself.
I know very
little about his time at war. I’m sure some of his anger stems from there. I
feared for his life every day. Kept up with the news and terror weighed on my shoulders
every second he was deployed. I’m so proud of him for what he’s done with his
life. Coming from a young kid with the odds of turning into a criminal stacked
against him to a man of honor. A soldier turned cop. I couldn’t ask for a
better man than him.
I still
haven’t been able to let him go. The man I left lives in the tattered mess of
my heart, and I never stopped praying our lives would have been different, that
fate wouldn’t have snuck up on me and kicked my feet right out from under me.
Stole our chance at happiness. I’ve loved Tyson
since the first day I laid my eyes on him. Through time and
therapy, I thought I would be able to stop
loving him. That there was no
way, love
could be this strong that months, years and a decade later it would still
linger. The precious memories I kept locked away swarmed to the forefront of my
mind the minute I saw him again. Stolen kisses, bodies tangled together. Our
hearts so full of promises to one another. I
broke them all.
Broke him. Broke me. I’m here to fix it. Somehow.
 I remain calm matching Jude’s gaze while every
cell in my body is a quivering mess. My stomach shifts uneasily and sweat
breaks out at the nape of my neck. But, I will not falter or allow him to see
that his presence is terrifying me.
“When Tyson
first told me it was you I didn’t want to believe it. I prayed for you to
disappear, to crawl back under your rock and stay the hell away from him. Now
after seeing what this is doing to him. I’ve changed my mind. Before I get into
why I think you owe me an explanation as
to what your plans are, I want you to know I’m standing here not trying to
intimidate you. I’m here to tell you if your reasons are not legit. I will
fucking destroy you.” Good luck. You can’t destroy something that’s already
broken.

Man, Kathy Coopman’s men just keep getting better and better! I was pulled right into Tyson’s story! The story has humor, pain, secrets, and, of course, heartbreak. Tyson shows us perfectly what happens when your heart loves when your mind doesn’t want you to love! We all make mistakes and Lynne made a dosey when she walked away from Tyson. Now she’s back.




There is such a deep level of emotion and just general feels in this book! The Lynne and Tyson have some intense, off the charts chemistry between them!! This book covered it all… love and devotion, forgiveness and pain, admiration and commitment…. Ugh, it just SUCKS YOU IN!!!

The heat factor is scorching! The story engaging and fascinating. I just LOVED all the secondary characters. It’s just like a big ol’ family that has each other's back.
I love books built on family like this! Kathy did it again… Bravo!!




I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I will leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that... my opinions.

The inspiration behind Kathy Coopmans character, Tyson. Thank You to Ryan for answering these questions.

What keeps you motivated and moving forward to conquer your dreams? And why?

Humanity keeps me motivated. I have a personal drive to inspire others to their highest potential. I found my passion by helping people transform their physical health/wellness. When I see people becoming better because of me simply sharing my passion inspires me to keep moving each day.


   What made you decide to become a model?

When I was 5 years old I went to a commercial audition for Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The acting/modeling bug bit me early in my childhood and stayed with me. I enjoy the creative process that goes into creating a look. It’s an art of expression.


  What is it like to see yourself on the cover of a book? 

I think it’s awesome.  You get to be something different and fun. It’s a showcase to your work and gives the character in the book somewhat of a face.

  How many book covers have you been on?

I have been on 4 so far and hopefully a few more by the end of this year. I have some new shoots scheduled  and love working with the authors.

    How do you get into character for a shoot?

Shoots are a chance to play a different role. I get to break into an alter ego for a few hours. I also usually have a lot of creative input into the shoots so I truly get to play and have fun. It’s
work but it’s just fun. We just need to get the best shot that displays the character in the authors vision.

    How did you feel when you did your first ever photo shoot?

I was definitely nervous but once the music comes on and you hear the click of the camera and flashing lights.. It’s go time. It’s work and fun. You do what you need to do to get the perfect look and vision. You just have to be playful and have fun. The crazier and more awkward you feel the better the shoot.

    Which tat is your most sacred and why?

R.U.L.E. located on the lower portion of my left thumb. “Rule of THUMB” acronym from RESPECT. UNDERSTANDING. LOVE. EQUALITY.  A reminder of non negotiable attributes
of a healthy relationship moving forward for myself..


What are some of your passions and hobbies?

The gym and my health are top passion/hobby. Human awakening, yoga, internal peace, keeping an open mind about the world, mediation, inspiring others. Reading and live music

   It’s a Sunday Afternoon, what would we find you doing?

 Food prepping, gym, cheat meal-usually pizza and cake/ice cream, maybe the beach or  movies, or taking my little man aka LION MONKEY dog aka TRIPP to the park.



What's the most embarrassing fan run in you've had because of your modeling?

I love running into people that have followed me on social media.. I always find it flattering as long as I am making a positive impact on their lives. However I hate it if I don’t know them
back it always makes me feel bad or embarrassed.


What is the oldest item in your refrigerator and how old is it?

Probably the baking soda refresher.. I think you are supposed to change those from time to time and I never do…oops.  Things don’t’ stay in my fridge that long. I EAT A LOT and love food.


Favorite quote?

Follow your own soul, it knows all the answers, you just have to trust and listen to what you already know. 


Song that you can’t help but dance to?

I love EDM, R&B, and POP.. so anything with a good beat and sexy lyrics that get your hips moving like MAGIC MIKE.  There is this cool Henry Krinkle remix called STAY by Justin Martin that gets me moving right now.


What did you want to be when you were a kid?

I wanted to be so many things. Orthodontist, news anchor, actor/model,  but so happy that I found my passion to help others through health/wellness and run #RVDFIT as an entrepreneur.
