Chrys Fey's A Fighting Chance blog tour

Today I'm pleased to welcome author and blogger extraordinaire Chrys Fey as part of her blog tour for her latest release, A Fighting Chance. I also had the chance to ask Chrys a question and from her answer, it sounds like she has a lot more exciting projects coming our way too.  

Nick Asked: Do you plan to write more series after this or concentrating on standalone books, and can you give us a clue what might come next? 

Chrys Fey’s Answer: Both. I am actively working on what I lovingly call my Secret Book Baby Series (the real series title and book titles will remain a mystery for now.) I am in the process of rewriting the first book. For, oh, about the twelve thousandth time. Okay. So that may be an exaggeration. It’s more like the thousandth time. (haha) I’ve rewritten this book many times, as well as revised it and self-edited it countless times.

That series will give birth to many other spin-off series. And I mean MANY. The universe that these books are set in just keep on growing. I love it! One day, I hope to share them with you all.

Aside from the books related to my Secret Book Baby Series, I also have a middle grade series in the works. I started Book 2 last year before setting it aside. I have plans for a new romantic-suspense trilogy, too.

But I don’t just write books that’ll be in a series, though. I don’t believe in restricting my creativity like that. Not all books need or have to have a sequel or series to follow it. I have a long list of standalone books waiting for my attention.

Right now, I will be concreating first on perfecting the first book in my Secret Book Baby Series and finishing up a standalone book I started last year. I got pretty far on that, too, (just eight chapters sigh of the end), before 2020 happened and stole my motivation for that story. I love it so much and will finish it. After that, there’s a few other standalone books I am excited to get to. A couple of which I’ve already written a lot on, and a couple of which I’ve only plotted out. The possibilities are endless!

As for what might come next, we’ll you’ll have to wait and see. 😉

BLURB:

*A FIGHTING CHANCE is Book 6 in the Disaster Crimes series, but it’s a spin-off featuring a new couple, so it can be read as a standalone.*

Thorn has loved Amanda from afar, giving her whatever she needs as a survivor of abuse—space, protection, and stability. He yearns to give her more, though, to share his feelings, kiss her, love her, but he's worried the truth will frighten her away.

And Amanda is afraid. She’s scared of her attraction for Thorn. Most of all, she’s terrified of her ex-boyfriend, who is lurking nearby where no one can find him. When she grows closer to Thorn, Damon retaliates, jeopardizing their happy ending.

Up against an abusive ex and Mother Nature, do Thorn and Amanda have a fighting chance?

EXCERPT:

Amanda looked up from the current list of up-to-date payments for classes. A movement outside the glass storefront caught her eye. She tilted her head to see a man coming up the sidewalk from the side where the picnic bench sat. Through the vertical blinds, she glimpsed a square face—a short, rugged beard and long, dark hair pulled into a man bun. Her breath fled from her lungs. Her body went from icy cold to flaming hot in the span of a millisecond. She dropped to the floor and slid under the counter, beneath the ledge where they put their purses and cell phones.

“What—” Beth peeked at the windows. Then she snapped her fingers at April and pointed at the stools.

April jumped into action. She pushed the stools in so they blocked Amanda. The bell attached to the door jingled as April removed the jacket she wore and draped it across the stools, creating a curtain to shield Amanda.

From a crack, Amanda watched Beth move to stand in front of the twins, who were in their walkers playing peacefully. “I’m sorry, but we’re going to be closing.”

“I don’t give a shit. I’m here for Amanda.”

The sound of Damon’s voice had her heart beating even harder. That voice had haunted her nightmares, had come back to life in her memories.

Beth cocked her head to the side. “Who? There’s no one by that name here.”

“Don’t bullshit me. I know she works here.”

His voice was closer now.
