Being from a small town this story hit close to home, it still amazes me that in 2014 people truly think this way. Rowen and Kasen had to go through a lot just to simply be together, to show their love was worth it. Rosen was patient with Kasen through it all, he allowed him to find him self as they built their relationship together. Kasen had an interesting hand dealt to him with his family, yet knows just who he is, while Rowen has been through the heart ache of finding the man he thought was his life partner in bed with some one else.

Kasen Reed was a lonely guy with hardly any friends.
Sheltered by his domineering, cynical mother, he never gained much of a social status
and he’s never known true affection. At the age of 19, he finally moves out to start his
own life and he has no idea where he’s going from here.
Rowan Kelly moved to the tiny town of Chartreuse, Alabama in hopes of starting anew. After a messy breakup that lingers over his
head, and his heart, he believes he’s finally found the perfect place to open his clinic and
do what he loves best; helping animals. Despite how picture perfect the quaint little town
seems, the 26 year old feels like something is missing…..
Two lonesome hearts will have a chance encounter in a town that doesn’t seem to be
ready for the acceptance of love equality, but will it stop them from being together?

T.E. Ridener entered the world in the
magnificent year of 1985. She’s an avid reader, crazy writer, and photoshop addict. She
started writing stories at a young age, and will probably do so until she takes her last
breath. Forever the daydreamer, not a day passes in which Miss Ridener isn’t working on
something book related. Her books may be a work of fiction, but there is a lot of truth in
each one.
Creating relatable
characters and believable storylines mixed in with make-believe is what she is best
known for. She always includes a strong female lead, a compassionate male, and tons
of every day events that readers will be able to connect with. Miss Ridener is a lover of
music, movies, TV shows, and her family.
During the months of
November and December, she participates in the charity she helped create called Random
Acts of Christmas, an online program geared towards making Christmas happen for
families in need. In 2013, they gave over $69,000 in gifts to kids who otherwise would
not have had presents to open on Christmas morning. Coming from a childhood of
poverty, T.E. understands that life isn’t always easy and she has experienced living from
paycheck to paycheck. This has fueled her drive to always lend a helping hand in every
form possible. She is very active in the group “Books for Troops”, a program designed to
send ebooks and paperbacks to soldiers currently serving overseas.
T.E. Ridener is the youngest of 3
children, a surviving twin, and an extremely proud aunt. She claims to be married to
her books and the characters she creates are her kids. Thus far, she has produced three
ongoing series entitled Blood Betrayal (vampires), The Kadenburg Shifters Series (bear-
shifters), and The Descendants (elementals). There are loads more and new ones popping
up each day. She LOVES her fans and readers, and not a single one of them appear as a
number to her. She knows that without them, she wouldn’t be where she is today. Every
day is a new possibility, a new adventure, and a new dream. Life doesn’t get any better
than that.
