Shattered
Past # 2

Releasing Jan 20th, 2015
Loveswept: Flirt
Blurb
He’s the campus golden boy. She’s
picking up the pieces of her broken past. But in Cecy Robson’s scorching novel
of second chances—perfect for readers of Monica Murphy and J. Lynn—their
differences only make their connection more explosive.
Every memory
Lety Tres Santos has from her childhood comes with a scar—some emotional, some
physical. Her father is an abusive drug addict, and her mother enables his
destructive behavior. College offers Lety a fresh start . . . until her father
finds a way to ruin that, too. Now, after losing her scholarship to kick off
junior year, Lety must somehow stay in school, pay tuition, and turn a deaf ear
to the whispers that follow her. And she intends to do it all without Brody
Quaid’s help.
Brody is a
lacrosse star, a 4.0 student—and as a freshman, he fell hard for the beautiful
and spirited Lety. But their relationship crashed and burned because he
couldn’t break through the walls she’s put up around her heart. With Lety
hurting more than ever, Brody strives to win her back and make her believe in
real love and true partnership. That will mean opening up secrets locked away
in his own past—and trusting someone more than he’s ever dared.
Lety knows
how painful it can be to depend on the wrong man. She also knows how much Brody
wants to do this the right way. But it takes more than sizzling desire to move
on and build a future together.

Interview
Please welcome Once Loved: Shattered Past #2 author Cecy Robson to Diane’s Book Blog.
If you were stranded on a desert
island which of your characters do you want by your side?
Brody of Once Loved. He’s strong,
resilient, and will keep me laughing despite my likely “we’re going to die”
mentality.
If you could be best friends with
one of your characters, who would it be?
It would probably be Lety. She’s
strong and vulnerable all at once, and that loyal friend you could always count
on.
What's your favorite book-turned
movie?
The Hunger Games. Given all that
happens in the first novel, the director did an excellent job of capturing the
heart of the story.
What is your typical day like?
I crawl out of bed about six-ish,
get everyone going and out of the house, empty dishwasher, possibly start
dinner, pick-up around the house, then get to work. I’ll write for several
hours stopping only to eat and go to the bathroom. I’ll write after dinner and
into the night if I’m under deadline. If not, I try to stop by eight so I may
spend time with my husband. Every other day I’ll also do about 3-4 miles on the
treadmill.
How do you overcome writer’s block?
The key is to keep writing―even if
it’s 100 words, it’s 100 more words than you had. Typically, something within―be
it the character’s feelings, the situation, or the dialogue will trigger an
idea and help me out if I hit a wall.
Can you share a little of your
current work with us?
I finished Once Touched on
Christmas Eve. It’s the fourth novel or possible spin-off of my Shattered Past
contemporary series. It’s about Curran O’Brien, he’s one of Killian’s (the hero
of Once Pure) five brothers. You’ll meet all the O’Briens in Once Pure. They’re
all great characters with tremendous struggles to overcome.
Do you have anything specific that
you want to say to your readers?
