PRAISE FOR "DEEP CONNECTIONS":
"Deep Connection is a unique thriller that will keep you guessing until the end. Who is stalking Brenna and why? As the layers of mystery unfold, you will be pulled into the twists and turns Ms. Graf has so wonderfully written. Wrapped around the mystery is a love triangle between Brenna, the cute sheriff's deputy and the handsome Native American lawyer. Who will win her heart and save her from the evil stalking her? Read the book and find out. I had a hard time putting this one down. I am waiting for the sequel as I am sure it will also be a fantastic read." – Marianne Spitzer

Excerpt
Brenna’s eyes fluttered open to see a blur of trees flying by. Her head pounded and her stomach began to roll from the pain she felt and the fast-changing scenery. A careful look at her surroundings told her she was in an older model car. She inhaled deeply to calm herself, but confusion set in as her senses were assaulted by unfamiliar smells. The old smell of the car was tainted with something repugnant and caused her nose to crinkle in response. Her eyes widened in fright as terrifying memories began to flood her mind. Turning slowly, afraid of what she might see, a gasp involuntarily escaped her vocal cords when she saw he was as repulsive as she remembered. Who was he and what did he want with her?
Sensing her stare, a pair of dark, soulless eyes turned towards her. A smile appeared on his unkempt face. “Well, well, sleeping beauty awakes.” Brenna’s stomach rolled again as she felt his eyes slide hungrily over her body. She pushed up against the door in an effort to put as much distance between the two of them as she could, but he shook his head in disapproval. “No need to be dramatic.” He turned his attention back to the road. “We both know you won’t jump out.”
She set her teeth and glared at him. Eyeballing her surroundings, she saw that there was no end to the trees that lined the road, no sign of civilization. She assumed they were still in the same state as when he grabbed her from the parking lot of the school where she taught. Deep down inside, she knew death awaited her no matter what. The look in his eye was not merciful. Yet jumping from the car to end her life seemed too selfish. As she was not one to keep such joy to herself, she quickly swung her body around and slammed into her abductor. Might as well let him in on the fun!
The force of her body colliding into his sent the car spinning out of control. She began fighting with all her might to prevent him from regaining control. Two sets of hands fought for control of the steering wheel. Profanities were shouted as the fight intensified. The car spun to the edge of the road where a small depression nestled in the forest. The tires left the ground when it hit the slight downward shift of the terrain, the car flipped and somersaulted twenty feet down the hill. As it took its final turn before slamming into a large pine tree, the passenger door flung open from the movement. Brenna thudded on the forest ground and barely missed a clump of trees. Stars exploded in her head and every bone in her body ached from the impact. She looked up to the fading light and let the darkness take possession.

The Sequel: Dark Connections – April 10th Guest
Post
When on reads Deep Connections, it is obvious that there will be a sequel. While I do enjoy torturing my readers with cliffhangers, I do pull them up to enjoy the view…eventually. The sequel is titled Dark Connections and will be out in about a month.

The second book literally picks up right where the first one
leaves off. They could be put together with no change in flow. I did that on
purpose as it is one complete story.
In the sequel, the focus shifts a little from the romance of
Slaton and Brenna. I’ve turned the focus more on the rest of the family
especially Layford. He is becoming a man though he struggles with still being a
youth. Realizing that he has to grow up and be a man is hard for him. As he
struggles, a love enters his life that will help him stay focused and be what
everyone needs him to be. I’m also bringing in more of Tahnee and Grey’s past
and other family members including one that has been dead for quite a while.
The paranormal element increases in the second story.
Romance is there but is not the focus. There is still suspense, but everyone
knows who is after her. It is within this story that you find out who he is and
why he is after her. It goes much further than you think from the first story.
And, yes, I leave you with a cliffhanger at the end. I have
to. There is another book coming out which will pick up again where I leave off
in Dark Connections. I’m working on it right now.
From all these stories, I’m actually thinking of writing a
few more based on the stories of Creeper and some new ones that enter the scene
in Dark Connections. There is so much history with these characters, and it all
comes to a head with Slaton and Brenna.
