Running Away by Jen Andrews Cover Reveal!



~~~~ Cover Reveal ~~~~


Running Away (Book Four of the Just Say Yes Series) by Jen Andrews
Releasing in August 2015!


Synopsis:Nearing age thirty, Jeremy James is cruising along in life, doing as he pleases. No girlfriend, no wife, no drama. Women go as easily as they come, but inside, he feels something’s missing. After the birth of his niece, Hannah, and a not so gentle nudge from his sister, Zoey, Jeremy decides to make a change in his life and settle down. Then he meets Teagan Donnelly.And she wants nothing to do with him.Teagan has recently come out of a three year relationship with a man who cheated, shamed her, and berated her for her weight and life choices. The once secure yet spirited woman cannot figure out what Jeremy wants with her.For Jeremy, it’s plain and simple. He wants Teagan to stop running away and give him a chance. But for Teagan, taking a chance with Jeremy means she could lose herself all over again.

******Author’s note: While this is book four of the Just Say Yes series, it can be read as a standalone. This book is a spin-off from Andy and Zoey’s story, which takes place in books 1-3. Characters from the first three books will be mentioned throughout, but Running Away is written in such a way that there are no questions as to who everyone is. If you’d like to delve deeper into the James family dynamic and the wonderful characters, I recommend reading the first three books. Thank you! ~Jen

Beautiful With You
by Jen Andrews

Pre-Release Blitz

Title:  Beautiful With You (Just Say Yes Series Book 3)
Genre:  Romance
Date:  March 1st - 9th

Synopsis:
For Zoey James, life hadn’t always been easy. Until she met Andy Tate. Things changed the second she met him, and she finally had a reason for breaking down the walls she had built around herself.

The beginning of her relationship with Andy was rocky at best, but eventually they built a life together. A beautiful life.

The day Andy proposed to Zoey, she said yes.

That same night, Andy was completely blindsided by news from his past. He had lost yet another person to death. A person he didn’t even know existed.

Devastated by the news, Andy made a rash decision and moved home to New Zealand. Without Zoey.

But now, Zoey is given news that will change both of their lives forever. Instead of Zoey building the walls back up around her, she makes a choice to fight.

She is fighting for her happiness, fighting for Andy, and most of all, she is fighting for the life that they have created together.

And she has no intention of losing.

Excerpt
“Come on baby girl,” I said as I rested my palm against my belly. “Let’s go get your daddy and bring him home.”

Once I arrived in the waiting area to board the plane, it hit me that I was on my own until I reached New Zealand, and I had never been more scared in my life.
My friends and family were so supportive of me, but it was time for me to go to Andy, and support him. He was devastated by his loss, but I had all the answers he needed. I hoped it would be enough, and he would come home with me. I was willing to give up everything to be with him and our daughter. I would give up my store, my apartment, and my life in Sacramento if I had to. Before Andy, I never would’ve considered it, but he and our little girl meant more to me than any possession.

Wanting to be alone with my thoughts, I found a seat away from everyone. I pulled my iPod out of my purse, set it to shuffle and people watched while I waited for the call to board the plane.

I was too nervous to do anything else.

As I waited for the plane to take me to him, the perfect song came on, and it helped calm my nerves. “Set Fire to the Third Bar” had the exact lyrics I needed to get me in the right mindset for my trip. The lyrics talked about looking at a map and being only inches away from the one you loved, but being so far away physically. I was just inches away from him on a map, but over six thousand miles separated us.

I played it a few times in a row, and by the time I moved on to the next song, I was feeling more confident with my decisions. People began stirring around me, so I took my earbuds out and put my iPod away.

It was time to board the plane.

Author Bio:
I am a self-published author of the Just Say Yes series. There are three books in the series, The Reason, Just Say Yes, and Beautiful With You. All three books are about the same couple, Zoey and Andy.


I reside in Northern California with my husband, Jake, and all of our rescued pets. I was born and raised in a 'car family' so I've always been around old Chevy's.

Never in my wildest dreams did I think I'd become a writer, even though it's in my blood. My grandfather was a self-published writer as well in the 50's and 60's, publishing four or five books before he passed away in the early 70's.

So far, I have four books written, and three more on the back burner that I will work on as my busy life allows. I work full time, and writing is a hobby, along with my other favorite hobby, photography.

In my "spare" time, aka vacation, I love to travel! My ultimate vacation has been to New Zealand, where we saw my favorite sports team, The All Blacks, play an amazing rugby match. We also visted Hobbiton where The Shire scenes from The Lord of the Rings was filmed. I plan to travel back to New Zealand as many times as I can!

So that is me. I am quirky, tattooed, music addicted, loyal, protective, and just me. :)

Just Say Yes by Jen Andrews

(Image found on Goodreads)
"What had gone so horribly wrong?"-Jen Andrews, Just Say Yes


Zoey and Andy should be happy, but when a freak accident causes Andy to withdraw a bit, Zoey is having a difficult time. Especially while away on vacation. But she finds a horse ranch and it helps her gather her thoughts, as well as figuring things out. She knows that Andy and her can come through this. But when yet another bomb is dropped on them, can they survive? Find the official description on Goodreads.

Okay, may I just really say that the freak accident is really imaginative and freakish? Like that is not something I would honestly believe if I heard it on the TV or the web. So that was really interesting and I've love the uniqueness of the accident.

And the reactions were interesting. I didn't even think about how Andy could react especially with his history. So I was a bit shocked when he acted how he did. But I did sort of understand? Anyway, both characters were interesting and I enjoyed the interactions as well as the willingness to work things out they both seem to have.

I was really happy for most of the book but then there was several shockers(although one less shocking than the others) and I just honestly couldn't believe it. It was difficult and took away my happy mood really quickly. This book will leave shocked, annoyed and upset at certain times and sometimes all at the same time.

Just Say Yes certainly lives up to the expectations I was left with from The Reason and even possibly surpasses it.

The Reason by Jen Andrews

(Image found on Goodreads)
"Was this man completely oblivious to the effect he had on women?"-Jen Andrews, The Reason


Zoey has not been as lucky in life as some have been. She was lucky enough to be adopted by an amazing family but her ex-husband tried to take everything from them. She ensures that nothing like that will happen again by making a rule; no dating people she works with. But when Andy shows up, she finds the rule harder to stick to. Can Andy break down her wall or will Zoey live her life behind a wall! Find the official image on Goodreads.

Okay, I have to say that having a chapter and hearing how Zoey had grown up from her as a child made that so much more real to me. I'm not saying I wouldn't have felt bad if she had described how she grew up throughout the book but seeing that first hand from a child's perspective who doesn't really know better just hammered that home to me so much more. I'm not sure why or how but it just did. I was really happy that that was included. And it made me happy for Zoey that she found people who obviously care about her.

There was a good flow to the writing and word choice was wonderful. I didn't feel like I was jumping from place to place or time to time or anything like that. Everything just seemed to flow without talking over every step that was taken.

Also the fact that the book is from Zoey's perspective and not knowing really Andy's thoughts makes things really interesting and leaves readers in the dark at times. It was great to have that inability to know Andy's thoughts and have to guess what his actions meant.

And it was just marvelous. There was character growth on both sides and it was interesting to see how interactions with others would go. I just really enjoyed this book and also the way it was formatted. Usually I wouldn't mention the formatting but I found it really cool that the notes were actually formatted to look like notes in the book. It was just that little extra that looked really interesting.

The Reason was a great romance book and I'm sure that if you're a romance fan like me, you'll enjoy it!
