Vic wants a ring on her perfectly manicured finger, but only if it comes from the perfect man. Except he only sees her as a friend.

For years, Tabatha has chipped away at Reese’s cool resistance. Now that she’s been paired with him for the Fall Festival, though, she’s ready to use all the assets God gave her to crack it for good.

Reese isn’t sure crossing that boundary with Tabby is worth the price. But they find themselves inching closer to that line. And closer...

Brazen by Cathryn Fox (originally published 07-17-12 in eBook format)
Josie, the perpetual good girl, decides some no-strings playtime with the town bad boy will do until the real thing comes along. Their first kiss touches off an unexpected explosion of passion.

Nikki Duncan's Bio

Nikki Duncan, jokingly known to some as Naughty Nikki, juggles her time between writing, multiple jobs, household duties, and family. Of all the things on her To Do List, Nikki neglects the household chores most frequently. Then again, who doesn't want to ignore laundry and dishes?

Before turning to writing, Nikki passed her spare time with a hundred or so romance books a year. While the reading has tapered off a bit, her love of books and reading is stronger than ever. She now spends large chunks of time indulging in her love of creating stories that will hopefully offer people the peace that, regardless of whatever is wrong with their life, hope and faith in something better can always be found between the covers of a book.

In an attempt to strengthen her writing and story-telling techniques, Nikki dissects published books to see how published authors accomplish things. She has taken classes to bone up on grammar and punctuation, and though she's always been a strong speller she's eternally grateful for spell check in Word. When she has extra time (ha-ha) she reads craft books, searches the web for writing tips and secrets, and picks the brains of other writers willing to share what they've learned. As if that's not enough, she inhales workshops on CD that even remotely pertain to her writing or future goals.

It may be seen as overconfidence, but Nikki never wondered IF she would be published. For her, it was a matter of WHEN, because the only way to succeed is to keep pushing forward and getting better.
