Synopsis:
Author Penny Lane
decides to team up with fellow author Kain Brooks because she believes
the collaboration will bring something refreshing and new to her humdrum
life. It is at first, but what she doesn't count on is developing
feelings for a man that's hundreds of miles away while continuing to
struggle with the death of her fiancé, Zack.
The newly divorced Kain is excited about the partnership and happily realizes that it may lead to much more than just a book.
However, there is a threat! A stalker's evil intentions are far more serious than either of them can ever imagine-- so serious that they may not make it long enough to discover if their feelings are genuine or just a long-distanced crush.

Excerpt:Penny
I feel a ray of sun hitting me on my cheek, waking me up. Lying on my stomach now, I glance over to the side of me and the bed is empty. I sneak out of the covers, making my way to the bathroom on my tip toes, hoping Kain doesn't know I am awake. Making it successfully, I close the bathroom door, leaning against the sink and staring at myself in the mirror. After ten minutes of inspecting myself and a couple of tugs on the T-Shirt that I have on to see if it will cover any more, I decide to brush my teeth, having no toothbrush I put toothpaste on my finger and stroke away. Once I am done with my teeth, I flip my hair upside down and run my fingers through it. Raising my head back up, I flip it to the side, brushing my fingers through it again. I inspect myself again and decide that it's as good as I am going to get. I open the door still tip toeing through the house till I spot Kain. He is in the kitchen cooking with music on in the background. He still has his black plaid pajama pants on but no shirt. There is a dish towel thrown over his shoulder and a spatula in his hand. One of the sexiest pictures I have ever seen. I watch him as he does a couple of sways with his hips and then starts beating his invisible drums. A giggle escapes me without control. Kain spins around and catches me laughing at him and gets this evil smirk and walks towards me. I can't fight it any longer and bust out laughing, then try to run in the opposite direction. He reaches out with his long, muscled arm, curling it around my waist and swinging me around. I wiggle, trying to free myself, which only entices him more. He picks me up by the waist and sits me on the counter beside the stove with one hand on my bare leg, daring me to move. The other hand takes the spatula and flips bacon. That really sends me into a fit of giggles for some odd reason. “Really?” Is all he says as he looks at me with a raised brow. I am still laughing watching him push the skillet off the burner, then coming to stand directly in front of me. He wipes his hands on his towel, tossing it over his shoulder. He uses his legs to spread my thighs apart and grabs my hips, pressing me up against his waist. I wrap my arms around his neck sliding my fingers through his hair. There is no more laughing coming from me after he presses his lips against mine. Leaving me once again with his ‘kiss and run’, he pulls away, lifting me off the counter saying. “Let’s eat breakfast.”
Review:
Their words bring them together.
Ready for you is a breath of fresh air it’s new and really something different that you don’t come a crossed now days. From the moment I read the summery I was hooked, it had everything I look for in a book romance, comedy, mystery and a real voice for character details. The overall idea of two well know authors coming together to write a book is amazing but then them falling in love over Skype, text messaging and emails is a modern day love story for book lovers. I being a book lover, loved this book very much. The mystery parts of this book will keep you guessing and you will never see it coming, I swear you will be like “Wow i never saw that coming”. I found that the details and overall characters are very real, relatable and deal with very real issues that will keep you rooting for each of them. Penny and Kian are the main characters but their best friends: Wayne and Tina keep you laughing out loud and wanting more of them. Being written by to author can sometimes be not so great but Ms. Love & Mr. Daniel came together seamlessly and work great together. I promises you, pick this up you will not be disappointed, its sweet and beautifully writer love story for book lovers. A modern day fairy tale about two broken writers whose words bring them together.
