- SYNOPSIS -
An accident on a rain-slicked highway leaves Jenna Baker alone…Jenna is scarred, confused and vulnerable after surviving an accident that took her husband’s life. After a year of mourning Tyler and struggling to raise their son on her own, Jenna’s best friend whisks her off to fulfill her lifelong dream of visiting Ireland. She never dreamed her trip would include a self-appointed tour guide in the form of a sexy Irishman with piercing blue eyes and a smile that promises to fill her empty heart.
Brady Connelly is irresistibly drawn to the lovely, broken yank…
As the weeks pass, Brady comforts and supports Jenna, convincing her to live and chase her dreams. His attraction to her grows and their chemistry ignites, but Jenna isn’t sure she’s truly ready to move on. How can he convince her to release the past and take a leap of faith…with him?
The impossible happens, and Jenna’s world is thrown into chaos…
Tyler is alive and re-enters Jenna’s life, burdened with guilty secrets. Jenna knows she has to try and make things work between them, if only for their son’s sake, but she’s blessed—or cursed—with vivid visions of Brady. The visions begin to consume her and leave her questioning her sanity and the bittersweet nature of her marriage.
Jenna’s dreams of Brady become her lifeline as she questions the boundaries of fantasy and reality. Is her one hope for happiness waiting for her across the sea?

★★CHARACTER INTERVIEW★★
Jennifer interviewed Jenna and Samantha, characters from BITTERSWEET... Check it out!
Well, Today I’m delighted to introduce
you to Jenna Baker and Samantha O’Connell from Bittersweet.
Jennifer:
Good morning to you both, it’s nice to see you visiting us again.
Sam: Morning, Jen, what’s up?
Jenna: Good morning, Jennifer. It’s
great to see you again.
Jennifer: Likewise.
There have been a lot of changes in both of your lives lately, first with the
trip and finding a new love, then with the move, and the transition with
Jayden. How are you both coping?
Jenna: *fans face* I promised myself I
wouldn’t get emotional. Um, the trip Sam sort of surprised me with to Ireland
was the best thing I could have ever hoped for. After all, if it hadn’t been
for Sam I’m not sure I would have ever met Brady. And, Jayden loves him almost
as much as I do. Plus, I think the move helped us to move on. There were too
many memories I’d much rather not live through again, you know? But, maybe
Tyler will come around one day.
Sam: I think what Jenna is trying to
say is that we’re all coping pretty well. Yes, she misses Tyler, and of course
Jayden does too, but they’re both happy now. I see it on a daily basis, and I
love my beautiful little God child, Jenna and Brady have blessed us with. And,
as you can see I’m coping very well too. *she rubs her visibly pregnant belly*
Caleb and I will have a playmate for Shelby in a few short weeks.
Jennifer:
Congratulations to you both. Married life certainly suits you. Jenna I’m
assuming Shelby is the daughter you and Brady share together?
Jenna: She is *smiles*
Jennifer: And,
Sam, do you and Caleb have any names picked out for your little one?
Sam: *laughs* is that your subtle way
of asking me if we know the sex?
Jennifer: I
suppose so, yes. *shrugs*
Sam: Melina Jenna O’Connell actually.
We’re having a girl. *grins* A little girl so Shelby will soon have a playmate
to enjoy. Hopefully they’ll be the best of friends like Jenna and I are, and
Caleb and Brady.
Jennifer: Congratulations
again. I think it’s wonderful that two best friends married two best friends.
So where are these men of yours today?
Jenna: Brady’s got Caleb practicing.
*laughs* They’re with the children to give us a moment with you.
Jennifer: And
to yourselves of course. So tell me, Jenna, how does it feel to have your story
finally told? Yours is a unique one.
Jenna: That it is. I think you did a
great job with it, and Brady was the best part. Although, I blush every time I
get to the intimate parts. Sam gets a kick out of it, and makes sure to tease
me. God love her.
Sam: Oh, I do not. *laughs* Although,
I do crack up every time I read about the time you walked in on me and Caleb.
*Sigh* he’s delicious isn’t he?
Jenna: *eye roll* He’s no Brady, but
yes, Sam, Caleb is a very good looking man.
Sam: Well, of course Brady is a dish
too. You and me did good Jenna.
Jennifer:
*chuckles* The two of you are great.
Sam: Why, thank you, thank you very
much.
Jenna: *wink*
Jennifer: *smiles*
I’d like to thank you both for joining me today. It was a pleasure to write the
book and I loved catching up with you both. If I’m ever back in Dublin I’ll be
sure to stop in to say hi.
Jenna: Oh please do.
Sam: Thank you, Jennifer. We’d love to
have you.
HEA readers, if you all
liked this interview, and would like a one of a kind erotic contemporary
romance to keep you company this summer, then may I suggest checking out,
Bittersweet. I’d like to thank Jenna and Sam for their time, and for the update.
I love happy
endings, don’t you?
Please enjoy
the blurb, an excerpt, and a review snippet below.
- REVIEW SNIPPET -
“First, let me say that when I read the blurb of this novel the first thing I thought was that this could either be really great or really depressing. It was definitely GREAT!! The main and supporting characters were solid, and you will either love them or hate them (okay, loathe is probably the better word there). The ending was satisfying and worth the emotional ride that this novel brings us through.
I give this novel 5 stars for it’s ambitious and successful telling of this woman’s life-altering trials and happily ever after!”

- EXCERPT -
“Tyler, wait.” She was breathless, and self-consciousness swept through her as he undressed her. Her body wasn’t the same since the accident. She was thinner from the horrible hospital food and being in a coma. She had scars from her surgery, and she was still tender in other spots, even though she didn’t look half as bad as when she’d first come to. “What is it, Jenna?”
She blushed and felt a little silly all of a sudden. Since when had she ever been shy with him? The answer was never. “I’m different now,” she whispered. “With the scars, it’s probably not going to be very pretty to look at.”
He didn’t answer. Instead he continued to undress her until she stood before him completely nude. “Come with me.” He moved her in front of a long mirror and lifted her chin so she was forced to look at herself. “You’re beautiful, Jenna.”
His lips were close to her ear, and his breath was warm and soothing. It gave her a chill as she leaned into him. “I’m glad you think so.”
“You’re trim.” He continued trailing his hands from her hips up to cup her breasts. “And perky, perfect. God, Jenna, your breasts are just right the way they lay in my hands.” He tested their weight in each as he fondled them, stroking his thumbs across her hardened peaks.
“Tyler, don’t stop.” Breathless, and weak in the knees, she leaned into his embrace while he teased and tweaked her nipples. She reached back to stroke him, but he moved to stand in front of her instead.
Starting with her feet, he gazed up her entire body with lust. Once he reached her eyes again, he said, “The scars are still healing and barely noticeable. You’ve been through hell, and you’re still so damn sexy.”
