When gifted
computer hacker Taylor Beckett wins a scholarship to a prestigious boarding
school, she figures it’s only a matter of time before they discover she hacked
into the testing system and cheated on the test. But when she arrives at the
academy, they already know and her hacking talents are what won her the
scholarship.
When she’s paired with the school’s scrumptious nineteen-year-old martial arts instructor, aka manwhore, Colt on a field assignment, hanging out with him becomes a necessary evil to get the job done, but resisting the bad-boy that is so off limits might be more than she can manage. He's one of those guys you just know isn't good for you –he can–and often does–have any girl he wants.
The deeper she gets involved in a troubling field assignment, the more she finds herself relying on Colt. If she can just figure out how to do the right thing and not fall for irritatingly hot Colt in the process, life can go back to normal. Baby steps.
IN TOO DEEP is a mature young adult contemporary romance told in dual point of view. It is book one in a series. Book two, TEMPTED is due fall of 2013.

“What about her?” I nod toward the bleach blonde swaying her
hips alone on the center of the dance floor. She’s in skin tight jeans torn at
the knees and a hot pink halter top. Just trashy enough for a one night stand
with being overtly skanky. A perfect choice for him.
He pulls his eyebrows together and shakes his head.
“What’s wrong with her?”
He glares at me. It’s strange how expressive he is without
speaking a single word. He takes another drink, draining the rest of his glass.
“We are not picking out my next victim together.” He offers a sly smile. Oh,
this boy is trouble. With a capital T.
I stir the ice cubes in mine with the straw. “So who’s your
choice?”
His eyes fix on mine and stay there for what feels like too
long.
I roll my eyes. “Colt, I’m serious, this is why we’re here.
We need to get you out of your shitty mood, and I’ve been around you long
enough to know this is how it’s done.”
He finally drops his eyes from mine, and looks around.
“Fine.” He takes a deep breath and releases it slowly. I watch him scan the
room. “Her.” He nods toward the bar.
I turn around to glance in that direction, trying not to be
too obvious. The girl he’s looking at is a brunette with pretty, yet plain
looks, jeans, sandals and a long sleeved T-shirt. She certainly doesn’t stand
out amongst the overly made-up girls trying hard to get noticed. This girl is
actively trying not to be noticed if you ask me. Very little make up, hair back
in a low ponytail, nothing spectacular about her. She actually reminds me a lot
of, well…me.
I reach for my drink and take another sip, fumbling with the
straw. I don’t know what Colt sees in her, most guys probably wouldn’t give her
a second glance, not with the busty blondes putting on a show on the dance
floor.
“Her?” I double check, thinking I must have the wrong girl.
His eyes are back on me. He nods.
“Why her?” I take another sip. It’s not as bad once you get
used to the taste. He takes the drink from my hand, his fingers brushing past
mine.
“Not too much, little one.” He sets the drink down across
the table from me.
I squint my eyes, glaring at him.
“She’s the only one in here, besides you, who looks like a
nice, normal girl. No drama. No strange ulterior motives.”
I half expect him to add disease-free. I don’t know what to
make of his comment, but suddenly I’m wishing I had my drink back to distract
me. After a few moments, I recover. “So go talk to her.”
Colt looks bored. “You’re serious about this whole thing,
aren’t you?”
“Uh, yeah. Obviously. Now go.” I shoo him from the table.
Colt shakes his head, but he’s grinning. He gets off his
stool, looking in her direction.
I reach out for his arm, and feign a voice of concern. “You
have protection, right son?”
He rolls his eyes and walks away. Of course he does. He’s
probably wearing a condom at all times, just in case. “Have fun!” I call to
him, playfully and watch his backside for a few moments. Unfortunately he turns
and looks back and catches me looking. He chuckles and I can’t help but blush,
knowing I was just caught checking out his behind.
It takes everything in me not to turn and watch him try to
pick her up. I wonder what it would be like to have Colt’s attention like that.
After a
few minutes, I sneak a glance but Colt and the mystery brunette are gone.
