CARLENE’S DISCOVERY is a spicy, saucy romance about a woman who goes beyond her comfort zone as she rebounds from an ego-bruising end to her marriage. She reaches beyond her existing safe personality to embrace and enhance her sensuous and feminine inner self.

Tell us the story.
After the first months of adventure and sexual experimentation she realizes that this new Carlene isn’t anyone she’s proud to be and she slowly begins to rein in and accept her sensuous nature and spirit.

She realizes she only needs one man to see her as a sensuous and feminine woman, not a bunch of them. George is the only one she cares about but she needs to get away from him to find out what he means to her.

When he comes to rescue and collect her, they face the possibilities of their relationship together. Can they overcome what has gone before and accept each other not only in spite of but because of their human flaws? The question so many couples face no matter what their background.

This sounds deeper than your average erotica. What genre is it?
Adult Romance with mildly erotic scenes and coming of age emotionally if not by years.

Who is your target demographic?
Women or anyone who has gone off the deep end after a rough break up of a long term relationship.

We should return to Carlene.
Carlene is a tall and athletic woman who has never worked at her appearance, she’s been too busy with horses and life to care – until her cheating husband tells her she resembles his male lover.

What?!
What happens next?
She goes off the deep end trying to make herself be sexy and vampish to sooth her bruised ego and crushed spirit. She’s too honest and forthright to do it that well, but her looks and new sexy clothes do draw men into her realm of influence. Soon she realizes that empty sex is not the answer for her – she needs emotional commitment.

Have you written any other books that we should read next?
Not yet. Working on another romance soon.

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’ve had several careers in my life from the Post Office to Photography. I’m now in my fourth and hope to continue in this career for a long time.

I ride, I write, I’m a potter, I live in a small town in the bible belt, I put my faith in God but work hard at helping myself so He can do more important things.

Well said.
Do you have a website?
www.kaseyriley.com has been kind enough to give me space and I put excerpts of her books in the back of mine. Fair trade.

What’s next?
I have a romance in mind that doesn’t begin with heartache. Maybe something that is light and entertaining.
