Dunbar loves the sweet things in life. Her affair with all things romantic began with her first book at the tender age of six: Goldilocks and the Three Bears. One can never forget her first! From there, the reading journey includes a deep love of fairy tales, medieval knights, regency debauchery, and alpha males. She loves a deep belly laugh and a strong hug. Occasionally, she has the energy of a Jack Russell terrier. Accused, yes, that\u2019s the correct word, of having an over active imagination; to her benefit, such an imagination works well. Author of over a dozen novels, she\u2019s created small town worlds, rock star mayhem, and MMA chaos. Her other duties in life include: mother to four growing children and wife to the one and only.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Connect with LB<\/span><\/h6>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Newsletter Sign Up: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qtWT6o\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qtWT6o&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712025000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEAVgjgqgfGkpPCT9L08I9LuQxw7Q\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qtWT6o<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Facebook Author Page: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2rdWV5g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/bit.ly\/2rdWV5g&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712025000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGXGARdrkCWKe8GNw4VKM8X6PZCJQ\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2rdWV5g<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Facebook Reader Group: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2quj1O6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/bit.ly\/2quj1O6&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712025000&amp;usg=AFQjCNF5ASeNdb6_0QU0h1U5jwfCDqkwXA\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2quj1O6<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Goodreads Author Page: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qu5sy2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qu5sy2&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712026000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEmkj9M32ejKw8X_TMx-gC82QXMQQ\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2qu5sy2<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Twitter: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2pIHlym\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/bit.ly\/2pIHlym&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712026000&amp;usg=AFQjCNFwCg5xGbqql8KUyqmQXNEsXnx4pQ\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2pIHlym<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Instagram: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2rdJj9Y\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/bit.ly\/2rdJj9Y&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712026000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGRIShxqWRw3QRNxq5FpRUYbrjObg\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/<wbr \/>2rdJj9Y<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Amazon Author Page: <a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2qqjByf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/amzn.to\/2qqjByf&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1495104712026000&amp;usg=AFQjCNGWAbKEMLeF4xGUrFWSeNlHTNOg-A\">http:\/\/amzn.to\/2qqjByf<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Cover Design: Shanoff Formats Release Date: June 2, 2017 \u00a0Synopsis &nbsp; Are you a hero yet?
