A Bit About Me

Name: L.A. Donahoe
Address: CA

Well, what can I say...life didn't go according to plan. I was widowed at a young age with a young son. It took some time before I decided to pursue my dream of writing. I’ve always been passionate about writing, however, it wasn't until recent years that I decided to actively pursue this passion.

I wrote my first novel, which I adapted from a short story that I had written for a school assignment, and I continue to promote - JUST THEIR LUCK - which hit the shelves August, 2015. Since then, I have been keenly working away on my next big seller - HER FLAWSOME LIFE which will soon be released.

I love writing and if even one person enjoys reading my books then I’m thrilled.

My grandmother was born in 1908 and when she was in her 50's she decided to go to college, supported by my grandfather, and she followed her dream. She’s my inspiration. If she can follow her dream during a time when women were expected to stay home and look after their families then I sure as hell can follow my dream during a time when anything is possible for anyone!

I’m doing this because I love writing and I’m having fun with it! So, follow your dreams, whatever they are, at whatever age you are, because quite frankly, if it makes you happy then you’ve already succeeded.

HER FLAWSOME LIFE

Available after April 12/19

Life for Quinn Fairchild just isn’t going according to plan. Her ex-fiancé is a cad, her boss a degenerate, her love life not exactly impassioned, interaction with her parents just plain exhausting, and meeting handsome stranger, Darcy, is just another emotional complication she has no desire to get caught up in. She finds him far too presumptuous and confident for her liking and yet, admittedly, there is an undeniable attraction…too much so for her own comfort.

Insistent, that going on a date with Darcy is not a good idea, her best friend, Francois, disagrees. After giving in to her friend’s pestering it isn’t long before Quinn regrets that decision, validating that her night out with Darcy was a big mistake and the worst date ever! So, why would she ever consider a second?

This novel will always hold a special place in my heart as it was my first. It's a romantic comedy about Sarah who is moving on from a broken relationship, however, her struggles begin from the moment she arrives in Forestville after having a run-in with handsome firefighter Sam Ward. Finding him rude and completely unreasonable, Sarah regrets ever meeting him; a feeling that is clearly mutual.

Having recently ended a tempestuous relationship, Sam has no patience for irrational and short-tempered Sarah Roberts, yet with every encounter Sam finds himself increasingly attracted to her.

Amidst her struggles dealing with Sam, further problems arise for Sarah when her ex-boyfriend, Travis Boynton, star quarterback for the Watertown Broncos, decides he has revenge to seek following the end of their turbulent relationship, leaving Sarah wondering how to deal with Travis' escalating scare tactics and her growing feelings towards Sam.
