Featured Author, Teresa Mummert

Have you ever felt an instant connection with an author? Their words touch your soul to the core? Well, I have and I'm not alone concerning this author. I met her through another fabulous friend and author, Cat Miller. She told me, "K.B., you have to check out Teresa Mummert! She is one funny chick and she's a kick ass writer!" So, of course... I went to check her out. The first thing that I saw when I went to her page was;
"I was a Russian spy at the ripe age of thirteen, given my uncanny ability to tell if someone was lying ( I also read fortunes on the weekends). By sixteen I had become too much of a handful for the Lethal Intelligence Ensemble (L.I.E.). I was quickly exiled to the south of France where I worked with wayward elephants in the Circus of Roaming Animals and People (C.R.A.P.). I was able to make ends meet by selling my organs on the black market for pocket change and beer money. At the age of twenty three I decided to expand my horizons and become a blackjack dealer in Ireland. I loved the family atmosphere at Barney's Underground Liquor Lounge (B.U.L.L.). People couldn't resist the allure of Liquor up front and poker in the rear. Eventually I became tired of the rear and headed off to the United States to try my hand at tall tales. That is what brings us here today. If you have a moment I'd like to tell you a story. (This bio is not to be taken seriously under any circumstance.)"
See what I mean? Instant awesomeness!
I immediately sent her a friends request on Facebook. After a few exchanges, I knew that she had a sense of humor like mine. This chick is AH-mazeballs!
But, what about her writing, K.B.? Is she any "good" I was asked repeatedly as I began sharing links for her books on my fanpage. Well... I needed to read one of her books to find out, right? Right. Problem... I wasn't a fan a Contemporary Romance. However, I had to know if this chick could write. So, she had just released The Note and the cover caught my attention, because it was simple, yet beautiful. I grabbed my kindle and downloaded it from Amazon. 

Seven hours and almost a full box of tissues later... Holy BALLS!

First, I discovered that I DO in fact enjoy Contemporary Romance... if it's written well. 

Second, HOLY BALLS, again! The Note wowed and impressed the hell out of me. That's saying a LOT coming from a YA/NA Paranormal writer ;) The way Teresa took a very simple and real issue facing some of our service men and women today and spun this tragic, yet heartwarming tale of love triumphing over heartbreak was perfection at its finest. 5 star book! If you haven't checked it out, go now! Click on the pictures, they'll take you right over there :) 

After reading The Note, I downloaded all of her books in addition to purchasing the ones that were available in print. You guys know me, I only buy books in print that I know I'll read again. And all of Teresa's books are GOLD! I've listed them all below for you. EVEN the books that are available for pre-order. Get your download on, but I must warn you... have tissues and in some cases, a fan and cigarette at the ready! Happy Reading <3
