Hi Everyone! My name is Danielle. I write Young Adult and New Adult novels as D.R. Graham. ONE PERCENTER, THE HANDLER, and RANK all released in the spring. My upcoming summer 2015 releases are BRAMPTON BEACH and IT IS WHAT IT IS.
I actually live on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, so beach reads are my favourite thing. This is me in the water near the Gulf Islands in British Columbia, Canada where I have a cottage. I love summer because where I live, the days are really long from May through August. Right now, it stays light out until 10:00 o’clock at night, so plenty of time for outdoorsy things like hiking, kayaking, or lounging around reading a book.
For a perfect summer romance complete with a quaint historic beachfront town and search and rescue cuties, I definitely recommend that you pick up Brampton Beach when it releases later this summer. If you are looking for a read right now to take along on your road trip, airplane ride, or weekend at the cabin, you will love THE HANDLER, which is a standalone novel in the Noir et Bleu Motorcycle Club Series. Even if you don’t have any holiday and travel plans, The Handler will take you around the world ¬— Los Angeles, Rome, Paris, Oslo, Miami, and Montreal — on a heart pounding, suspenseful, dangerous, and romantic trip.
Giveaway!!
To thank everyone for reading, I am giving away (via Amazon.com) one digital copy of one of my other fun summer reads, RANK. It’s about two rowdy, bull riding brothers on the rodeo circuit, and the sweet championship barrel racer who changes one of their lives forever.
He promised he would never be an outlaw . . .While searching for the member of an outlaw motorcycle gang who murdered his dad, Cain Allen is offered a boatload of cash to "handle" the stunning teen popstar Lincoln Todd. Although he doesn't need the headache of a high-maintenance celebrity, getting out of town will help him keep a low profile until he testifies against the other two killers.Touring Europe with Lincoln proves to be more complicated than Cain anticipated, and despite his efforts, the line between their personal and professional lives blurs. She’s sweet, smart, and totally unpredictable. And he loves it.But Lincoln’s association with Cain puts her in more danger than anyone could have imagined. When he joins forces with the Noir et Bleu Motorcycle Club to protect her, Cain discovers the lengths he's willing to go, and the person he's willing to become to protect the people he loves…
Check out what's up for grabs.
