Double Dare.....is Out...But Of Course I Messed It Up!
Dear Readers who are extremely patient,
As promised, I released Double Dare as soon as it was done.
And of course, I messed it up.
The book was set for pre-sale at iBooks, B&N and a few other places. I distribute through Smashwords.com for those places so when I uploaded the book yesterday I clicked “Release Now” hoping that it would go through when the finished version of the book went through.
The wonderful team at Smashwords.com and iBooks is working very hard to fix my screwup, which inadvertently removed the pre-order setup at iBooks. They are hoping to have it up and available at iBooks by Tuesday. It may come out sooner, but I don’t want to make any promises that I can’t back up.
As of right now Double Dare is available at Amazon.com and Smashwords.com. I apologize for all of this and hope to have it fixed soon.
I’ve decided to switch things up so that this doesn’t happen again. From now on I will not put any book up for pre-sale until after it is finished. Then it will go up for one month while my team and I make sure that the book is all set to go. If you’d like to know when books are going to be published the best indicator is the Home Page for this website where you can follow the progress of all the books I’m currently working on.
I will keep everyone updated for the release of Double Dare.
On a side note, there is a scene that I decided not to include in Double Dare, because it didn’t fit for the story even though it is a vital part of the story. I have decided to write it as a Chronicle when the time comes. When you read the book, you will know exactly what scene I’m talking about 😉

So, if we pre-ordered it through B & N, will we automatically get the download when it’s fixed or did we lose that pre order? I’m a little confused.
Monica,
If you ordered from B&N you are still good to go. No worries. I just don’t know if they will stick with the Friday date or release it earlier.
R.L.
I ordered this awhile back on B&N and it is still showing as pre-order
Cindy, I’m not sure where B&N stands. They may hold off until Friday. The same file type can be found at Smashwords.com right now if that helps.
R.L.
so all the books I preordered will be removed from my preorder list?
Monica,
You should be good. It just took it down from the site to fix it.
R.L.
I’m sorry I wasn’t clear. I preorder several of your upcoming books. I just wanted to know if those will be removed.
No, that’s my mistake, Monica. Your pre-orders should be all set. This way my mess-up, not theirs.
R.L.
Heading over to Smashwords right now! So excited! 🙂 Thank you for releasing it early. This is one of the many reasons you have loyal fans – you treat us so well.
Yay! So excited I don’t have to wait till the 30th!
I loved the book but I think there is more than one scene that could have been added… One right at the beginning, and one the middleish. I would love to see those scenes in the chronicles! But overall absolutely loved the book. God I love my Bradfords!!
Just finished it – and now I feel like a junkie for a fix……..I have to wait another YEAR for the next one??????? You’re cruel! 😀
Can’t wait to get this! Do you know when it will be available in paperback? I just got the rest of the series in paperback and there’s nothing like hugging them lol
So i want you to know you are totally to blame for me goofing off at work today and failing to do laundry tonight. If you didnt make me love you books so much i would not have spent the day hunched over my tablet instead of working. :^) So I thank you…..but my boss does not
I got it! I got it! I pre ordered from B&N, now I’m off to reeeaaaddd! Oh and btw for anyone looking for books to read while we don’t have our R.L. Fix try C.M. Owens her characters are a little younger but I really enjoyed them.
Just have to say how much I admire you as an author. Your skill is 2nd to none, the NFH Series has me lol, drawing some funny looks from my girls. About to start Double Dare knowing I wont be disappointed. I just finished re-reading the Pyte/Sentinal series again & cant wait for next book. Keep up the amazing work, I know I also speak on behalf of all my friends whom I insisted read your NFH & loved as much as me.
I just found your books last week. I must say I love your books and your writing style. I’ve read all of your Neighbor from Hell series that you have out and 2 from Hollywood Heats series. I just couldn’t stop to see more of the Bradford’s. I love that you have us laughing so hard and then crying for them. You can feel the depth of their love as it develops. I’m telling everyone they have to read your books.
