Ties That Bind - cover reveal

********************************************************************************

Title: Ties that Bind

Author: Neeny Boucher

Series: Complicated Love (Book #2)

Releasing: Fall 2014

Synopsis:

*Recommended for audiences over the age of 18*

Forced to return to her hated hometown to work, Christina Martin, lawyer and ex resident bad girl, finds herself questioning her life choices. Reunited with her former husband, Nicholas Riley, their tenuous and complicated relationship is tested when secrets from the past and present are revealed.

Riley, a man with explosive secrets and penchant for psychological games, faces the dilemma of keeping the woman he loves through lies by omission or potentially losing her with the truth. This isn’t just their second chance for happiness, it’s their last chance and there may be some things that love can’t conquer at all.

Equal parts helped and hindered by a colorful cast of supporting characters, ‘Ties that Bind’, Book Two in the Complicated Love Series, continues the dysfunctional relationship of Riley and Dina introduced in ‘Lost in Flight’.

Warning: This book is not about bondage. I have nothing against books about bondage. Heck, I’ve been known to read a few works myself, but it’s just this book isn’t one of them. Unless, of course, you’re referring to the tangible and intangible bonds of human relationships, ties that bind and ties that can be broken. Then, this book is definitely about that.

‘Ties that Bind’ is not a standalone and forms part of a series. It is highly recommended that you read Book One, ‘Lost in Flight’ before this one. Also, this series is full of quirky, socially awkward, and badly behaved characters, underpinned with dark humor. It is not a traditional romance and there is no guarantee of happy ever afters.

Excerpt:

“Are you sure this is going to work?” whispered Mandy.

Bonnie shrugged. “I think so. It’s supposed to wreck the engine and if it doesn’t, who cares? They’ll have squishy potatoes stuck in their tail pipe.”

The women giggled. They wouldn’t be there to see the result, but they hoped to hear about it. Bonnie tipped some vodka over the mailbox. “For good luck,” Bonnie seethed.

“You bastards. Payback’s a bitch and yours has come in three.”

Nodding her head at Christina, Bonnie said. “Let’s do this thing and remember, when it goes off we run. If we get separated, we meet back at the Martins.”

Christina lit the fuse, moving slowly back and waiting for the mailbox to explode. Bonnie got her wish. It did go boom and when it did all hell broke loose.

Author Bio:

Neeny Boucher is a nom de plume because my real name sounds like a 19th Century suffragette.  Originally, I'm from New Zealand and am a long-time supporter of the All Blacks.  Currently, I am living in Europe and a trailing spouse, following my husband all over the world for his work.  This not only gives me the opportunity to write, but also, experience the world and indulge in one of my favourite past-times:  people watching.

My own employment history is varied and ranges from the sublime to the ridiculous.  All of those experiences and encounters, however, have allowed me to collect amazing stories, which now form the basis of my writings.

I have always loved the weird, the outcast and those on the margins of society because they see the world in a different way.  These are the people my characters are based around.

I have a BA Hons (English and Pacific Studies) and a PhD in Sociology/Indigenous Studies.

Presently, I am working on the Complicated Love Series.  Book One, Lost in Flight, was released in 2013.  Book Two, Ties that Bind, is scheduled for release in 2014.
