About the author:

Sherry Reid is a happily married erotica author living in the South. When she isn’t working her day job, she’s probably writing, spending time with the family (including four adorable cats), or baking from scratch.

What inspired you to write your book?

I’m former military and, although I was single and unattached at the time, family and military buddies alike weren’t. The long distance thing, drawn out for months or longer, makes relationships challenging (put mildly). What I wanted to do, with this first installment in the series, was capture the core of Ben and Jackie’s relationship: their sexual compatibility. There’s a lot more to these two people than that, of course, but how much they miss each other when they’re apart–along with how well they come back together even after so much time spent thousands of miles away from each other–matters.

Here is a short sample from the book:

As hard as it was to believe, Ben would be home in just three hours. Still, that moment felt like it was days away. Since getting up that morning, Jackie had watched time creep by; each hour felt like a day, if not longer.
Six months, Jackie thought while she put the laundry into the dryer. Half a year since she’d seen her husband, who’d only been home for a couple of weeks of leave. That bittersweet embrace at the airport was the last time they’d touched each other. Talking on the phone every few weeks just wasn’t the same, especially with his squad mates nearby.
“I’ll be back before you know it,” her soldier had said at the airport.
“Be safe,” she’d replied. “Don’t you dare run over an IED.”
Ben was a Humvee mechanic who worked in a shop most of the time; the odds of him being in one of the Army’s vehicles when it ran over an improvised bomb were very low, but Jackie worried. Lots of other things in Afghanistan could cripple or kill him: a bad guy on a suicide mission; a mortar attack; a Humvee, or one of its heavy parts, falling on him.
She’d worried for nothing, though; Ben was on the plane and, in just a few hours, would be where he belonged.
Something could still go wrong between now and then, but Jackie shrugged off the concern that crept into her mind. She didn’t have time for any more of that. Today, she had to get ready for his plane, which would safely land just a few hours from then.
There wasn’t much left to do: finish laundry and pack her overnight bag, mostly. Those chores wouldn’t fill all the time, but they were something. After the few, sleepless nights she’d had, anything to make the minutes go by would help.
The airport was forty-five minutes away from their home. While she started the dryer, she mentally calculated how long she’d need to park and walk into the terminal. All told, she should probably walk out the door an hour and a half before his plane landed…if she could wait that long to grab her keys, get into the car, and go.

When she spots a man she christens Tall, Dark and Eye Candy, she starts to feel what she’s been missing.

    Lost in Time I is a love story about travelling great lengths to find your true soul mate.

    Scottish maiden Isobeille Aislinn McKenna wasn’t like the other lasses. She was curious about the world around her and wanted more than a life of servitude and obeisance. When her abusive father arranges her marriage in order to pay his debts, she prays for divine intervention.

    Her prayers are answered, and Isobeille suddenly finds herself six hundred years in the future – directly in the path of a bus in the heart of one of the busiest cities on the East Coast.

    Reluctant do-gooder Nick Peterson was there to tackle her out of its path, but he’s not happy about it. He’s already on the outs with his girlfriend and running very late for a date that he’s hoping will get things back on track.

    Both his conscience and his protective instincts kick in in a big way when he realizes Isobeille has nowhere else to go. Nick fights the sudden and instant attraction he has for the sweet and docile Isobeille, but does he really stand a chance against Fate?

    Emma Wells thought she had it all figured out. She went to college wanting a brand new lease on life, thinking she was going to become a doctor and make her mom proud. She just wasn’t planning on passing out her first day of volunteering at the hospital because she couldn’t handle the sight of blood.

    After banging her head on the floor, she’s taken care of by Dr. Ryan Matthews, an unfairly hot specimen of a man. Even after waking up in a cloudy, post-concussion daze, she can’t take her eyes off of him and their chemistry is becoming undeniable.

    Strong. Handsome. Charming.

    Even that couldn’t encompass everything Ryan had to offer. There was just one problem; Emma already had a boyfriend.

    One that would never let her go.

    Ever.

    Will Dr. Matthews still be able to prescribe Emma just what she needs or will Emma’s own demons come to threaten more than just their relationship?

    **Recommended for 18+ due to sexually graphic scenes and adult language.

    This is Book One in The White Coat Series (New Adult Romantic Suspense). It can be read as a stand-alone story without a cliffhanger.

    Homecoming by Jackie Sexton

    0 out of 5

    Ariane Michaelson is always the quiet girl in the room, the one that her kooky mother and three sisters lovingly call the wallflower. After graduating from college she finds it more than a little difficult to find the graphic design job of her dream…or any job, really. She’s more than given up on painting, and a terrible run-in with her twin sister’s fiancé makes each day harder to keep a life altering secret.

    Liam Ashdown was just the moody small town nobody, with one friend and a busted pickup—until he moved to LA. Spotted by famous actor and producer Michael Jennings during a late night shift at the bar, Liam is transformed seemingly overnight into Tinsel Town’s hottest bad boy. The life Liam once knew is turned upside down with models and mayhem…and there isn’t much down time in-between.

    The only thing that keeps him sane is the paintings. Beautiful ocean portraits that remind him of home, painted years ago by some friend of a friend.

    What he wouldn’t give to know her. To tell her that her art saves him everyday.

    The engagement of his childhood friend, Todd, brings him back home to Craryville, to deal with a drug-addicted mother and an ailing grandmother. But it also brings him hope—somewhere in the bridal party is the woman who has been his calm and respite in the storm of fame.

    The only question is, can she save him?
