Shevaun DeLucia

Genre: New Adult

Release Date: April 10, 2015

Photographer/Cover Designer: George Parulski

Book Description:

Maxine Daniels was made an offer that she couldn’t refuse. She couldn’t think of a better time—after breaking things off with her fiancé—to change cities and merge her company with Saunders Literary Agency. At thirty-three, she isn’t getting any younger, so it’s time to start fresh and leave her past behind.

What she doesn’t anticipate is the diversion that lies ahead. Kyle Saunders is a catastrophic tsunami that enters her life and consumes her world in just a matter of minutes. Everything about him is telling her no, but her heart and the heat between her legs is screaming yes. He was never a factor in her divine plan—nor was she in his.

Kyle is the cliché bachelor; he is a twenty-four-year-old charismatic chick magnet who refuses to settle down. He’s dead set on living the carefree single life—that is—until Max comes strolling in. Then all his ridiculous rules fall to the wayside.

Who knew that just one hello could alter their lives forever?

About the Author:

Shevaun DeLucia, author of the Eternal Mixture series, lives in upstate New York with her husband, four children, and two dogs. As a stay-at-home mom while her children were young, she fell in love with reading. She indulged in the small moments that took her away from the reality of her loud, rambunctious household, bringing her into a world of fantasy. When reading wasn’t enough to satisfy her, she turned to writing, determined to create the perfect ending of her own.

What inspired you to write your first book?
It kind of just called to me. I love books, and I thought, Why not write one?

Jayded means to sexually pleasure to the extreme in the Urban Dictionary. I thought it was a perfect fit for the title, given the subject matter of the book.

Age does not matter when it comes to love.
How much of the book is realistic?
I would have to say about 1%.
Are experiences based on someone you know, or events in your own life?
The storyline idea came from some events that happened where I work. Two co-workers began dating, which caused major gossip because of who they are and maybe even because of their age difference. But they have weathered the storm and are still very much together today.
What books have most influenced your life most?
The Twilight Saga. I haven’t put a book down since.
If you had to choose, which writer would you consider a mentor?
Jamie McGuire. Because of her advice, I decided to self-publish my work.
