♥ Author ~ Frankie Rose
♥ Genre ~ New Adult
♥ Release Date ~ Autumn 2013



♥ BOOK DESCRIPTION ♥
Iris Breslin is on a mission with only one goal: escape Breakwater, Wyoming, where her family’s horrific history is common knowledge. New York couldn’t be more different to her small town upbringing, but better still, absolutely no one at Syracuse University knows of the brutal murders her father committed before taking his own life when she was fourteen years old. For the first time, Iris has friends, a career plan, a regular life.

Until Jake.

Jake Stafford grew up in Breakwater. Discovering Charlie Breslin’s body on his first day as a cop may have snared Jake in the Breslin family nightmare, but the truth is that he was already involved long before. Now a part of the NYPD, Jake remains entangled in the five year old mystery—a mystery he intends to solve. That isn’t going to be an easy task, especially with Iris back in his life. Jake must fight to convince the girl he loves that his feelings are genuine, and not some sick obsession with a man who once helped him when no one else would. His hidden secrets are darker than Iris can possibly imagine, but can she drop her guard long enough to uncover them?

♥ AUTHOR BIO ♥

As a child, I was always accused of being bookish because I wore glasses- big, horrible, ugly ones with too-thick lenses. Those kids, the super smart ones who always know which tender insecurities to poke at in order to provoke life-long complexes, used to accuse me of reading too many books and that my eyes were going to rot out of my head (their words, not mine!)

The truth of the matter was a little more embarrassing: I used to sit too close to the T.V. That was the reason why I had to wear glasses, but kids don’t really care about small, insignificant details like the truth, and so I was labelled a nerd. The label kinda stuck, and after some sage advice from my awesome nana (nana, you rock!) I decided that if I was going to be abused for my supposed literary obsession, I might as well develop one.

I guess that’s how I got into books and reading at an early age. Since then, I’ve been ripping through books like they’re going out of fashion, which, thankfully, they’re not. Good thing, too, because I’m a writer now, and books are my business!

Thank you to everyone who has supported and encouraged me on my journey- look for your names in the acknowledgements!

♥ EXCERPT ONE ♥

Damien flew through the window.
“Your Majesty!” I looked him over and saw his feathers ruffled dirty. His eyes were wide, and he sounded severely out of breath. “Yes, Damien? What have you seen?”

“Your sister! She hurt the Emily lady and the green keeper led her to safety. She has obtained the first key! What shall we do?”

“WHAT? She’s stronger than I thought! How could she have gotten the first key already? That’s impossible!”

“She has! She passed the green spirits character test! What are we going to do?”

“We’re going to have to intercept her at the Blue Spirit. That will most likely be her next destination. Let’s go.”

I will find her and end it now. I cannot risk her getting another key. It will be my own undoing.

♥ EXCERPT TWO ♥

James was special.

He was really a piece of work, always cracking a joke, always turning a serious situation into a laughing stock. Sometimes it helped alleviate the awkward. Other times it was pure hell. Though I had to give it to him. He was always there for me.

There wasn’t one time when I was in trouble that he didn’t back me up. For instance, now. Here I was, on the verge of dying in a world behind a magical mirror, and he came along for the ride. He didn’t really have a choice, but still. After looking at him, it made people wonder about me. How could this boring, weird girl be related to the comedian? My life was somewhat like a Tim Burton character. I felt as if every step I took, could be documented and put to a Danny Elfman soundtrack.

We made it to the shore and, instead of Sam tying the boat to the dock, he pushed it back out into the lake. I looked at him questioningly.

“Emily, if we leave it here the Crow Queen will think we’re back in the city. If we push it back out, it will delay her a bit, making her think we’re still with the Blue Spirit.” I nodded in agreement and pushed it with him. We all watched as it floated back into the lake, the current pushing it farther and and farther away. Suddenly, I saw a very familiar and terrifying crow on the horizon

♥ SOUNDTRACK ♥

*Can you share 10-15 songs with us that you think make the perfect soundtrack to your book?

Wow, I love these kind of questions. I’m such a huge music person in general so I’m definitely psyched to be picking a soundtrack to my book. When this kind of question is asked, I envision it with a movie as well, haha!

1. “Fix You” Coldplay
2. “Alone Again” Alyssa Reid
3. “Pick U Up” Adam Lambert
4. “Heart Attack” Demi Lovato
5. “Down the Rabbit Hole” Adam Lambert
6. “Sweet Dreams” The Eurythmics
7. “Radioactive” Imagine Dragons
8. “Sun of a Gun” Oh Land
9. “Set Fire to the Rain” ADELE
10. “ I’m Alive” – ELO
11. “My Songs Know What You Did in the Dark” Fall Out Boy
12. “Speeding Cars” – Imogen Heap
13. “Dog Days are Over” Florence and the Machine

(These last two are popular original compositions, made famous by other movies. In a perfect world though, they would go to my book!)
14. Dreaming – Coraline
15. Ice Dance – Edward Scissorhands

♥ PLAYLIST ♥

Ohana Day Academy would like you to share the playlist you listened to while writing The Color Keepers.

I would definitely have to say the overall inspiration to start the writing process, began with “What I’ve Done” by Lincoln Park. I don’t really have a reason as to why THAT song inspired the start of the book, but it did!

I think songs that would best describe the the feelings throughout would be:

1. “The Call” Regina Spektor – This being about the overall battle between Emily, her feelings and having to overcome fears. In the end, actually missing the journey she’s taken.

2. “I’m Yours” Jason Mraz – This song definitely is the romantic song I would give Emily and Sam, the love between them just fits this song perfectly. This song helped me write how I wanted their romantic relationship to feel.

3. “Fix You” Coldplay – I feel this is Sam’s song to Emily…trying to help her open up and be the person he knows she is.

4.”Magic Dance” David Bowie – Some might find this funny, but I must’ve listened to this song over and over. It really helped capture that fantasy feeling I was after.

5.”Pocket Full Of Sunshine” Natasha Bedingfield – This song helped me pretty much wrap up the story. I imagine this playing out in the final scene.

♥ DREAMCAST ♥

*If your book was made into a movie, who would you cast as the main characters?

I love doing this, as I can already envision it being a movie! That would be so cool, right?

♥ Emily, our main character would HAVE to be played by Hailee Steinfeld. I loved her in True Grit, she’s a fantastic actress.

♥ Sam, her crush, would be awesome if played by Josh Hutcherson, from The Hunger Games. I think he’s a great actor and would pull off Sam, perfectly!

♥ Her brother, the annoying and goofy kid James, would be played by Asa Butterfield. He was the star of “Hugo”. I loved that movie. I remembered seeing it and thinking, he would be PERFECT for James!

♥ Last but not least, The Crow Queen… HAS to be played by Liv Tyler. I’ve only ever seen her in nice roles. It would be a great change to see her play someone evil. Not to mention the Crow Queen is supposed to be extremely beautiful and she fits the bill

♥ AUTHOR BIO ♥

I am not going to talk in the third person. It feels weird.

I am a Bestselling author of Paranormal Romance, Post Apocalyptic, Contemporary, Romance, and Fantasy novels. I write a lot of books and jump Genres all the time. Mostly because I think I have Writers ADD, I like to call it WADD. It might be a real thing.
I write YA some of the time but mostly New Adult, my books have sexual content (Heck yes) and Swearing. You have been warned. Now enjoy!

I have a beagle named Buster, a husband who I force to read everything I write and two girls who want so badly to be a character in my books. And not in that order.

I am mid thirties so be prepared for the chick lit novel this year. I am calling it my Ode to my Midlife Crisis. I’m kidding. It’s actually called The Single Lady Spy Series and it is an adult romantic-thriller series. The first book, The End of Me is due out April of 2013. It is a sexy and fresh series with the lightest touch of erotic naughtiness.

I have been writing since I was old enough to lie. So for some time. If you’re wondering about the hat, it’s my ‘Hey I’m Canadian Toque’

Welcome to my world. Please enjoy the ride. If you would like to reach me for whatever reason, please visit me at my facebook page – Stalker Links Below

Thanks for checking me out and I hope you got lost in something I wrote or it made you so MAD/HAPPY/SAD/BLISSFUL/TURNED ON/ANGRY/EXCITED/FRIGHTENED/HORRIFIED that you couldn’t believe it.

Have a great day!!!

♥ MY PERSONAL REVIEW ♥

Let me just start by saying I really loved this book – every single aspect of it. I loved every single character there isn’t one in there I didn’t like – okay wait take that back just one – the nasty neighbor but she is just trifling and needs a good ole’ fashioned down home beating to straighten her out.

I love how Mae sees herself – full figured, maybe not what society calls beautiful, but not ugly either. She jiggles in some places and plumps in others, long beautiful hair (wish I had that – lol) and great personality. I can completely relate to how Mae see’s herself because that is how I see myself every day. Full Figured, Curves (not in the right places), not beautiful but by no means ugly either. So right away I related to Mae and could feel how she felt.

In comes Seth and his kids. A widower raising 2 boys and a daughter, with the help of his sister Ro and the Irish nanny Lynne. Connor is the oldest and loves to test his fathers buttons – oh wow does he sound a lot like my son at that age. Aidan is the middle child and always seems to just go with the flow, such a cutie and little Megan, the author described her perfectly “spitfire”. Red hair and an attitude to go with it. LOL I loved her.

Mae is an Oncology nurse and has just moved to Hamden taking a job in the new Oncology wing. Of course her profession and where she worked touched me down to my very soul. My mother battled and lost that battle to cancer and to be a nurse for patients battling this horrible disease takes a very tough person, one with character, heart and soul. Mae is all of those things. My heart goes out to those who work in this field they are a God send to those whose lives they are involved in.

Seth is in a partnership with two good friends of his Dylan a real ladies man and Wes he is more laid back but a sly one. Right from the start Seth is thinking about Mae, thoughts that he doesn’t understand why, but can’t stop either. I had to laugh my butt off when his son Connor who also notices Mae’s “attributes” as he calls them, calls his dad out, catching Seth off guard.

Connor noticed Mae first and made a bee line straight for her. After all, any 14 year old boy needed to hone his pick up skills on any hot babe he saw. “Hey Mae, how about letting me drive your sweet ride?”

Upon hearing the name and his question Seth immediately looked up and saw Mae sitting in his kitchen with a tea cup in her hand.

What the hell? Was this going to be an everyday thing? It is bad enough he couldn’t sleep worth a damn last night without thinking she was just on the other side of his wall. Annoyed, Seth said “what’s going on here? Having a tea party?” He realized he sounded rather rude, but he still couldn’t help it. Both Mae and Lynne looked directly at him.

“Way to be a ladie’s man, Dad.” Connor said and decided he should get out of the line of fire. Connor joined Aidan and Megan on the couch.

OMG I laughed so hard at that I can see Seth’s face after his son said that – I bet he sure was embarrassed. LOL and -ding-ding- round one goes to Connor – LOL

I so enjoyed the thoughts each one kept having about the other. Always wondering, assuming, guessing. But never coming out and saying how they feel about each other, constantly beating around the subject. I really loved when Mae had some of her male colleagues over to her place that she rented from Seth. He sees the guys and gets so angry. It was so funny, I was reading at my daughters softball practice and busted out laughing, everyone on the field stopped and stared at me. LOL

They promised to do it again soon and Mae knew that they would. She walked back to the stairs that led to her apartment and was just about to go in when she heard a deep voice coming from the deck.

“Have fun?”

Is that Seth? What the heck is he doing out here in the dark with no lights. Mae walked through her screened porch and out through the other door. Sure enough there was Seth sitting in the same seat he had the night him and Dylan were drinking beer. But this time there was no music and there was no light.

Mae said “Sorry Seth, I didn’t know you were there. Were we too loud?” Knowing she was feeling giddy from the wine, it was very likely she had been too loud. She didn’t want to set a bad precedent with the homeowner.

“No you and your boy toys were not loud at all, but I have to say you didn’t strike me as the type to be into threesomes,” Seth hissed feeling rage as his words led to vivid mental images.

Mae was sure the wine was now affecting her hearing. “I’m sorry what did you say?”

“I said you didn’t strike me to be the type that would be into group sex.”

She was incredulous at his accusation. “I beg your pardon Seth I don’t know what you are talking about and I do not appreciate you speaking to me like that. What I do in my apartment, that I pay rent for, and with whom, is none of your damn business.” Her bravado definitely was enhanced by the wine, but it was also making her stomach roll.

She started to walk to the porch door when suddenly she was pushed so her back was against the door and her head was between both of Seth’s big hands. His mouth was close to her ear, he spoke softly. “Do you have any idea what it is like to walk around all day with a hard on thinking about you and then to see you with two guys?”

Mae tipped her head up so she was looking at his face. His eyes were wide and his mouth was inches away from her forehead. Before she could move or say anything he whispered “and even knowing you were just with two guys, I can’t suppress the need to kiss you right now.”

Without knowing it, her body moved, Mae went up on tip toes and touched her lips to his. His goatee was scratchy but his lips were soft. The kiss started sweet but quickly went to hot in seconds, remaining on her tip toes she put her arms around his neck and opened her mouth to him. The first lick of his tongue was intoxicating. His lips and tongue moved as if dancing to music. Mae had never been kissed like this. She felt liquid need all the way to her toes. By the time he ended the kiss, they were both panting.

His hands were moving up and down her sides, enjoying her softness, her warmth.

“They’re gay,” she whispered against his lips.

“Thank God,” and with that Seth kissed Mae again.

Now you can’t tell me that was not funny. I was laughing so hard – I can just see his face as she is walking the guys out. Beat red, horny and madder than a hornet all at the same time and poor Mae hasn’t got a clue what is coming. An Irish bulldozer ready to pounce – LOL

OMG I so love the playful banter that Mae and Seth have between each other it is so cute. You can see just how much he is falling for her and her for him. Oh how sweet it would be to have this kind of budding romance (okay okay I am officially jealous now – move over Mae I am taking over – LOL) I mean come on who wouldn’t love getting a bouquet of roses at work with a card that reads

“I hope this morning’s bathroom banter was the first of many. – S”

OMG – LOVE IT!!!!!!!

And did I already say the love scenes, okay the sex scenes, wow – lets just say have a glass of ice cold water, no a jug and get ready for many cold showers because what goes on between Seth and Mae phew that puts any movie to shame it is hot and heavy, sweet and intense, and sometimes just down right Oh-La-La baby!!!!!! They are so hot I can’t put an excerpt here for fear I may cause some of you to rush out and not finish reading my review – LOL

I love Seth’s friend and business partner Dylan throughout the entire story. As hot as Seth is, Dylan is OMG HOTTER!!!! “Bad Boy” with a capital “B“. Tumble in the sheets, lots of fun HOT!!!. LOL Cocky and very sure of himself. And he gives Seth a hard time throughout the entire story about Mae – I loved it.

Oh I have to share this as its one of my favorite comments from Seth about Mae when he is talking to Dylan – it is one of those “AWEEEEEEEE” moments –

“God D, she is like nothing I’ve ever known. I crave her as if I can’t survive without her.” Seth breathed as he focused on a watermark on the ceiling.”

OMG tell me you didn’t just melt reading that because I know my heart ♥ did flip flops when I read that. What I wouldn’t give to have a guy say and feel that about me.

Of course what would a good love story be without some bumps in the road and boy do they have a dozy of a bump in the road. Mae is keeping a secret from Seth, and when he finds out, lets just say that his Irish temper comes flying out. I am Irish myself and wow did Seth even take me back a few steps. My heart was breaking for Mae and aching for Seth all at the same time. How one evil conniving person who doesn’t have the full story and opens their trap can turn people’s worlds upside down in a flash. Of course when one doesn’t give another a chance to explain and lashes out – even more damage is done.

But alas don’t fret because what is better than a huge fight and break up – - – yep you guessed it the make up “SEX” and all the rest too. LOL I mean come on when a love like theirs is written in the stars you know somehow, someway they are going to make it back to one another. It may take a while, it may take a lot of knocking sense into someone, but eventually the dots connect and things become right again in the world.

I want to part with this simple conversation that brought yet even more tears to my eyes it was so tender and so sweet –

“I do.” Mae’s father answered, placing her hand in Seth’s and saying, “You take care of my girl”

“Yes sir,” Seth said, believing fully in this vow as well as the ones to come.

Final suggestions – 3 Pack of Kleenex & an Oxygen tank (for the air you will need after laughing)

♥ AUTHOR BIO ♥



I live in New England with my young family. I’m a stay at home mom to two very active children. For all of you who are familiar with the stress of this job, I decided to complete an item on my bucket list and write a book. When I’m not writing, you will find me cooking, reading, shopping or being silly with the kids. 

Three of Hearts is the first in the Hamden series, with Three of Spades as the second. I’m currently working on the third, Three of Diamonds.

My type of writing includes characters that are not perfect. Meaning I try to make them as real as possible. Characters with flaws and baggage. They are not perfect, they don’t handle situations the best and they are not always politically correct. To me to read a story where characters are perfect and everything is lovey dovey just makes you feel not quite fulfilled at the end. I hope my style shows that true happiness and HEA can and do happen.
