Title: The Edge of Never
Author: J.A. Redmerski
Release Date: Nov 15/2012
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Age Group: New Adult
Twenty-year-old Camryn Bennett had always been one to think
out-of-the-box, who knew she wanted something more in life than
following the same repetitive patterns and growing old with the same
repetitive life story. And she thought that her life was going in the
right direction until everything fell apart.
Determined not to
dwell on the negative and push forward, Camryn is set to move in with
her best friend and plans to start a new job. But after an unexpected
night at the hottest club in downtown North Carolina, she makes the
ultimate decision to leave the only life she’s ever known, far behind.
With
a purse, a cell phone and a small bag with a few necessities, Camryn,
with absolutely no direction or purpose boards a Greyhound bus alone and
sets out to find herself. What she finds is a guy named Andrew Parrish,
someone not so very different from her and who harbors his own dark
secrets. But Camryn swore never to let down her walls again. And she
vowed never to fall in love.
But with Andrew, Camryn finds
herself doing a lot of things she never thought she’d do. He shows her
what it’s really like to live out-of-the-box and to give in to her
deepest, darkest desires. On their sporadic road-trip he becomes the
center of her exciting and daring new life, pulling love and lust and
emotion out of her in ways she never imagined possible. But will
Andrew’s dark secret push them inseparably together, or tear them
completely apart?
Due to sexual content and language, this book is recommended for 17+ – Adult Contemporary Women’s – New Adult Fiction

Excerpt- The Field Scene
“Do you want to get out and walk around?” he says, still waiting for the rest of my answer.
Getting an idea of my own, I smile brightly at him and nod. “Yes, I think that’s a great idea—is there a blanket in the trunk?”
He
looks at me curiously for a moment. “Actually, yes, I keep one in that
box back there with the rest of my emergency roadside supplies—why?”
“I
know it might be cliché,” I begin, “but it’s something I’ve always
wanted to do—have you ever slept under the stars?” I feel a little silly
asking, I guess because it is kind of cliché and nothing about Andrew
thus far has come anywhere near cliché.
His face spreads into a
warm smile. “As a matter of fact, no, I have never slept under the
stars—are you gettin’ all romantic on me, Camryn Bennett?” He looks at
me with a playful sideward stare.
“No!” I laugh, “Come on, I’m
serious; I just think it’s the perfect opportunity.” I motion my hands
toward the windshield. “Look at all of the fields out there.”
“Yeah,
but we can’t lay a blanket out in a cotton or corn field,” he says,
“and most of the time those fields are saturated with ankle-deep water.”
“Not the ones covered with grass and cow bombs,” I say.
“You want to sleep in a field where cows shit?” he says casually, but equally humored.
I snicker. “No, just the grass. Come on…,” then I glare at him teasingly. “What, are you afraid of a little cow shit?”
“Haha!” He shakes his head. “Camryn, there’s nothing little about a pile of cow shit.”
I
scoot back over next to him and lay my head right dead-center on his
lap, looking up at him with a pouty face. “Please?” I bat my eyes.
And I try hopelessly to ignore what my head is actually lying on.

Author of THE DARKWOODS TRILOGY and DIRTY EDEN, mother, werewolf
& zombie fanatic, book addict and a happy hermit obsessed with the
Universe. Oh, and AMC’s “The Walking Dead”. Addictions: Starbucks
every morning, trolling Barnes & Noble’s shelves once a week,
detesting winter, shopping flea markets and preparing for the collapse
of society as we know it. Do I own a tin foil hat? Maybe. :-)
I
was born in Arkansas and have lived here most of my life, except the
couple of times when I lived in Pennsylvania. I started my first novel
at the age of thirteen and have been writing something ever since.
Generally, I love characters in life and on paper. I pay attention to
people, especially those whose personalities make them different from
the rest of us: the drug addict roaming the Laundromat that talks to
himself, the young, inattentive mother in the park with the meanest kid
on the playground – (the entire cast of ‘Swamp People’) – characters
fascinate me and I hope that it shows in my literary work.
Some
authors that inspire me are Neil Gaiman, Anne Rice, Cormac McCarthy, Max
Brooks, J.K. Rowling, Richard Matheson, William R. Forstchen, Carrie
Ryan, David Moody, Phillipa Gregory and Lisa Smedman. I’m always on the
lookout for the next great book to pull me into its world and piss me
off when I read the last page and know that it’s over.
I’m a
sucker for anything Christopher Lee, Ralph Fiennes, Edward Norton and
Cate Blanchett. But my biggest fan-girl superstars are Alex Filippenko,
Michio Kaku, Brian Cox, Michelle Thaller and Neil Degrasse Tyson!
Also, almost more than anything I love nature and this beautiful planet that I live on. I just wish everyone else did too….

I'll admit it, and I'm probably not the first to, but my heart will always belong to the Dystopian genius that is the Hunger Games trilogy. I have yet to find a literary match that invokes the type of emotional roller coaster and soul fulfilling goodness that Suzanne Collins did.
