My Teasers ~

“Camie, for the love of God, would you please do something about him…I don’t think he’s gone this long and it’s making me nervous...and I’m not very photogenic.”

Tristan took a picture of me this morning that revealed I’m not very photogenic either so I feel for Pete. “Welcome to my world…what you need to do is keep him away from cameras of all kinds and get him to agree to boundaries. He’s pretty good about sticking to them. Well, most of the time. Sometimes. Alright, only occasionally…you know what, Pete? You’re screwed.” 

He played it for me and he's so right... I love it. I'm tearing up again...jeez, he really knows how to tug on my heartstrings. It's so weird that it would be a guy who really doesn't give a shit about anyone of anything who would make me feel so wanted. Not wanted as in physically desired, although he definitely does that, but wanted for just me, you know?

Title: Shark Bait
Series: Grab Your Pole #1
Author: Jenn Cooksey
Released: 6/15/2012

Previously homeschooled Camie Ramsey is being shoved into the shark-infested waters of public high school, where even helium filled, penguin bespeckled arm floaties likely won’t help keep her inexperienced, fifteen-year old head above water in that rip current of hormones and emotions.

Camie’s worldly wisdom might be severely lacking (i.e., the closest she’s come to being kissed was sitting too close to the TV whilst Jake Ryan leaned in to give Samantha that fateful 16th birthday kiss), but she does understand her only hope for survival is if she’s thrown some kind of “social” life preserver before she sinks like a freaking rock. However, what will her fate be when she endeavors to flag down the only lifeguard on duty, the enormously popular and ridiculously beautiful Tristan Daniels? The most sought after and virtually most unattainable guy in school who not only makes Camie’s heart flatline on a recurring basis, he’s also the one guy who seemingly doesn’t know she exists.

Feeling like an inept piece of chum that could ultimately be swallowed by Jaws, can Camie get Tristan to rescue her from floundering in the treacherous deep, or is she destined to be Shark Bait?

Author's Note:

While the tales themselves are fictional, some of the events and characters are very loosely based in reality and on my experiences—but don’t worry, the names of the characters, most of their unfortunate fashion sense and/or questionable taste in music has been changed to protect the not-so innocent.

I've already read The Other Fish in the Sea, and I can promise it's even better than Shark Bait (if that's even possible).

 

Check out an excerpt

 

“Come on dude, just talk Camie into pitchin’ something you can knock outta the ball park, I’m sure you’ve done it before…” the big-mouth-jerk-Brandon said. Seriously, I was all for giving him a break for not having any tact, but now? Yeah, not so much.

“Mm-mm. Can’t.” Totally can if he really wanted to, so he should’ve said won’t.

“Why not?” Because he’s not an asshole!

Tristan studied Brandon for quick moment while he took a drink and then said, “Few reasons…one, I don’t get off on coercing chicks, that’s fucked up. Two, my batting average makes her nervous so she’s agreed to walk me instead of saying I hit a foul and me having to pick up the bat again…and don’t get me wrong, I’m more than goddamned grateful for getting that because I also made a fuckin’ error, so I’m just lucky to still be in the goddamned game at all. And three, stealing is a contract violation, the consequences of which would be that she’d trade me faster than you can say Bob’s her uncle and I really like being on this team.”

Aww…that’s so sweet. Isn’t that just so sweet? He deserves some leeway for that.
