About chasing Reese:
Everything in life is not permanent but it was perfect. Catalina Pardo had a career in journalism most people could only dream of, a hot, sexy fiancé to call her own and a brilliant future ahead of her. When tragedy struck, the life she once knew fell apart. Four years later, traumatized by the events that ultimately changed her existence, Catalina sets herself on a punishing work schedule, preventing herself from facing the demons of her grief-stricken past. Emotionally shut down, she's alive but not living because everyone she ever loved leaves her.
Fate intervenes in Catalina's life in the form of a last minute assignment to a snowy mountain lodge in Whistler, B.C. Sent there to cover the life of the infamous Jackson Reese; an Olympic Snowboarding Champion, she is faced with many challenges bringing to surface the raw emotions of her past. Compelled to work alongside Stryder Martynus, an award winning photographer brought in to document the Reese press tour, tensions and denial run high forcing Catalina to accept the past and face the present with zero regrets.

Excerpt One:
You don't get to disrespect me like this. You don't get to behave like a pompous child. I believed you were better than that," I pause to catch my breath and gather my thoughts. Placing my hands on my hips I continue. I'm not fucking anyone here for a story. Oh, if Blake were here now...But if the thought that Jackson Reese is parading inside my panties makes your dull lives exciting, well eat it up you sick fucks." I pointed out, as fat, silent tears stream down my cheeks.
Everyone looks onto me stunned. When I dropped Blake's name, everyone was taken aback in memory of him. Watching me cry unsettles them, their discomfort etched across their faces. I'm not known to be emotional yet here I am, upset, crying over the stupid words of a jealous colleague.
I feel Stryder's arms pull me closer to him, but I won't have it. Shoving him aside, I try to run away, but my damn heels won't let me. I kick them off and run down the long corridor, desperately holding the sobs that threaten my chest. Having my colleagues think I'm less than professional is very upsetting to me. I have forged this career with blood, sweat and tears. I never cut corners or slept my way to the top. The more I think about it, the harder I cry.

About the Author
I love to read stories about loss, heartache and redemption so it didn't shock me when I ended up writing stories of my own revolving around those themes. I write with my heart, using my life experiences and emotions to dictate the tone and path in which my fictional characters embark. I believe in the power of friendship and to always have hope because life is always full of pleasant surprises. If you were to ask me if I consider myself an author, I would tell you no, I am not. I'm just a girl who loves to write a good story that makes you consider life choices and the darkness that envelopes a broken heart. My stories are about loss, friendship, hope and love.
I hope to continue writing more books in the not so distant future. It could be said that writing keeps me sane and brings a smile to my face. When I'm not writing Adult Contemporary Romance novels, I'm enjoying a quiet life with my family on Long Island New York.
