Holding On (Colorado High Country #6) —
The Colorado High Country series returns with Conrad and Kenzie's story.
A hero barely holding on…
Harrison Conrad returned to Scarlet Springs from Nepal, the sole survivor of a freak accident on Mt. Everest. Shattered and grieving for his friends, he vows never to climb again and retreats into a bottle of whiskey—until Kenzie Morgan shows up at his door with a tiny puppy asking for his help. He’s the last person in the world she should ask to foster this little furball. He’s barely capable of managing his own life right now, let alone caring for a helpless, adorable, fluffy puppy. But Conrad has always had a thing for Kenzie with her bright smile and sweet curves. One look into her pleading blue eyes, and he can’t say no.
The woman who won’t let him fall…
Kenzie Morgan’s life went to the dogs years ago. A successful search dog trainer and kennel owner, she gets her fill of adventure volunteering for the Rocky Mountain Search & Rescue Team. The only thing missing from her busy life is love. It’s not easy finding Mr. Right in a small mountain town, especially when she’s unwilling to date climbers. She long ago swore never again to fall for a guy who might one day leave her for a rock. When Conrad returns from a climbing trip haunted by the catastrophe that killed his best friend, Kenzie can see he’s hurting and wants to help. She just might have the perfect way to bring him back to the world of the living. But friendship quickly turns into something more—and now she’s risking her heart to heal his.

Audiobook Release Day Celebration & Giveaway
Today is the day!
It’s the official release day for Extreme Exposure (I-Team Series Book 1)! There are a couple of celebrations going on hereabouts on the Interwebs. After all, the I-Team books have been at the top of reader polls for books they want to have in audiobook format.
Audiogals is having a big release-day event and giveaway. Two lucky entrants will win a set of the first THREE books in the series — that’s Extreme Exposure, Hard Evidence, and Unlawful Contact — in audiobook format. They’ve also posted fun interviews with me and with Kaleo Griffith, the actor who is voicing the series.
UndertheCovers is hosting an interview with Kaleo today. (I really want to read it, but every time I’ve tried to get on the site since last Friday — four times now — it has crashed my computer.)
And here on this blog we’re having our own party. Post your favorite line from Extreme Exposure for a chance to win a copy of the audiobook signed by me. I’ll pick a winner on Friday.
Partying like this is going to become a bit of a regular thing around here for a while, as the remaining books in the series are coming out at two-week intervals through the end of the year. Here’s the release schedule:
Extreme Exposure — October 29
Hard Evidence — November 19
Unlawful Contact — November 26
Naked Edge — December 17
Breaking Point — December 31
At this point, the audiobooks don’t seem to be available internationally, but I hope they soon will be.
In the meantime, big thanks to Tantor Audio, Kaleo Griffith, Audio Gals, to all of you who voted for the I-Team series in AAR’s annual poll of books you wanted as audiobooks. You have made this all happen.
In the meantime, I want to let those of you who live along the East Coast know that I’m thinking of you. I hope this storm isn’t the disaster officials fear it is. I don’t want to see loss of human life or catastrophic loss of property/infrastructure. My thoughts and prayers are with you and with the members of the Coast Guard, who risk everything in such situations.
Stay safe!

Hi Pamela! It's been awhile since I've read Extreme Exposure, but certainly one of my favorite lines is "Mommy, what's this jiggle stick?" :) Love the I-Team series and I'm looking forward to hearing them brought to life too.
If I ever have a baby, I'm going to have a Brazilian wax first. Keep it pretty, you know?!
Oh my God, I laughed so hard when I read that!
I also liked Karas internal monolog "Just because he's sexy enough to thaw nuclear winter and pretty much frigging perfect doesn't mean you have to obsess over him!"
I'm looking forward to hearing little Connor - or Reese telling Kara what Connor said: "He saud, 'My mommy saves people, and sometimes it makes her sad.'"
Well, what about "Mr. Jiggle Stick and I talked it over, and he gets to take you first."
I Love the whole senatorial sexpose conversation!!!
The bar scene and "Da#* Straight!
I'm most looking forward to the Jedi mind trick conversation between Kara and Holly; especially where Kara actually says "Don't even look this way. You don't even see us." I lol'd for quite a while after reading that part of the book. Priceless Star Wars reference.
A close second is the senatorial sexpose converstation.
The scene that made me laugh was in the boook that I can not get enough of Marc and Sophie. WHen they are in the hopital and Julian and Marc are talking
Marc "Can you tell her I love her?"
Julian "Do I look like Fu*king Cupid?".
Chapter One is fabulous!
I liked all of the above, but since everyone picked the "sexy" ones I'll choose:
"It's our final adoption papers. These papers say that by law I am your real father now - and you're my son."
Or Maybe:
"Perhaps the fact that they had their tongues in one another's mouths?"
"Oh, I think I'm going to be sick!"
““Open your eyes, Kara. Look at me.” “Now taste yourself!” His lips, wet with her passion, closed over hers in a violent kiss, his tongue carrying her taste into her own mouth. Musky. Primal. Erotic. He had remembered.”
I loved this scene! :)
CONGRATS PAMELA!
lindarb49@hotmail.com
I liked the entire scene, but since you're asking for one line, I'm going with this one (since someone beat me to the jiggle stick one ;)"It comes
down to this: I don’t want to be with a man who’s going to say he
loves me one minute and gets sick of me the next."
A lot of the good lines are taken...lol....but I loved the line when Reece is feedeing Kara desert - "I want your first taste of paradise to come from me"....lol...that line can be taken numerous different ways...lol
Thanks for the giveaway!
I have so many favorites from this book, but I really like this one:
“I think you need someone in your life you can depend on, someone you can confide in when things go to hell at work, someone to massage your tired feet and your stiff shoulders, someone to bring you tea and cook a meal once in a while. Someone to be there for you.”
Love this series. Looking forward to more!
The interviews with you and Kaleo over at Audiogals are great! The giveaway doesn't close until Nov 2nd, so people ought to slide over there and enter. I'm listening to Extreme Exposure right now and loving it!
Kristy, you're the winner!
Please email me at pamelaclare at earthlink dot net with your mailing information and I'll get your copy of the audiobook in the mail pronto!
Congratulations!
And thanks to everyone who entered! Sorry I wasn't around to answer personally. Been writin'. :-)
