But her exile is dramatically cut short by the entrance of a dark haired, blue-eyed, smirking man who shakes her to the core, achieving what everyone else before him has failed to do, he makes her feel again. As much as he wishes it were different, fate has not brought Braxton James into Elise's life, or has it.

But as Brax struggles with getting close to her, he begins to live a lie. Unable to resist the pull that is Elise's bright green eyes, infectious giggle, and loving heart, he finds it impossible to stay away, so the double life of being Elise's boyfriend and keeping her safe begins. Full of twists and turns, danger and revelations that no-one could predict, you won't be the only one lost in distraction. *This book contains adult situations and explicit content/language*

Author Biography

Having always loved reading, and having been befriended and inspired by some awesome self published authors and book lovers alike, I decided to start writing my first novel, Lost in Distraction in December 2012. It was a conscious decision that started with a song, then the prologue and then catapulted from there. I love music too, like REALLY love music, if there isn't music playing, something is wrong. Out and proud Vampire Diaries fan as well. I'm also a wife, mother, full-time university student and I do contract work for myself from home.
