They were a link to something bigger, something more, but no longer. Now Orion’s Belt mocks me with its precision; Cassiopeia with her beauty, a beauty that will remain even when no one’s left to see.
Once a comfort, all of them, now my enemy.

I’ve been reading A.M. Hargrove’s books since right after I started blogging.
I’ve now read all of her books except for two.
I’m currently reading Exquisite Betrayal and then I’ll be reading Dirty Nights.
From paranormal/fantasy to romance and erotica, this author always has a great story to tell.
I’ll read anything she writes and then be waiting for more.
Dirty Nights
If you like your romances light and sweet, this is NOT for you. This is a tough and gritty story of heartbreak, rejection, and hard love. You’ve been warned.
Life isn’t easy. Nor is it fair. And you don’t get to choose who you fall in love with. Sometimes love chooses you.
Skylina…Her story is not pretty. Discarded like trash by her father. Forced into prostitution by her mother. Used and abused, she learns to cope. And survives. Because she has to. What other choice is there?
Ryder…His story is every bit as ugly. Beaten and left for dead. A star whose light was extinguished long before it should have been. Now a he’s drug addict who wrestles with the demons that try to destroy him.
Two broken people… Extraordinary circumstances… Pasts that could tear them apart.
Attention: This book is also published as the Dirty Nights Novella Series under A.M. Hargrove’s pen name of Emerson St. Clair.
**Content Warning: Due to the explicit sexual content this is not intended for younger readers.

Until the next time, thanks so much for visiting fuonlyknew!
I have a great book to show you today and a fun giveaway.
But first let’s here from the author himself!
Author Spotlight: James Moser, on Chasing Prophecy
I have always wanted to build a story around someone or something like Boo Radley, my all-time favorite literary character. I love how he dominates that book while remaining largely off-stage. I looked around the Seattle area and the closest thing I could think of was our local legend of Bigfoot. Once I had my own version of Nathan Arthur Radley in place, I started thinking a lot about monsters, especially monsters we make bigger in our imagination. I also thought about Boo living in society without being a part of it, which made me think of different separatist groups turned into cults. My young characters are based on bits and pieces of hundreds of former students.
The setting of Boulder Creek, Washington, like everything else in the book, is based on bits and pieces of lots of things. There is no town called that. Boulder Creek is where my wife and I hiked for our first date, in the foothills of the north Cascade Mountains. The mountains in my book look like the ones around Darrington, in Snohomish County. The main street is like Arlington (where I had my first teaching job). The log bridge is something I remember from a family trip to Yellowstone National Park, 1,000 miles away. People who have read Twilight will think Boulder Creek feels like Forks, which it does, because that’s what every small town in Washington feels like. The Bethlehem compound is the Boy Scout camp I attended in northern Idaho, complete with the same wood carvings on the fireplace.
