I am an American writer with a penchant for Paris and all things pink!

Before writing novels, I worked as a print journalist for a Pulitzer prize winning newspaper and served in the United States Air Force as a Radio and Television Broadcaster.

An avid traveler, I have had adventures and mishaps from London to Tokyo, which I write about on my blog, On Life, Love & Accidental Adventures, and in my contemporary romantic series, The It Girls.

I was once a collector of truly useless bric-a-brac and cheesy tee-shirts. My cheesiest? A tee with a cartoon Jesus riding a surf board and the words, "And on the eighth day, Jesus went surfing in Greece."

Today, I prefer to gather friendships and memories as travel souvenirs.

I live in the shadow of P

10 THINGS MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW ABOUT...Writers:


1. A writer receives an advance payment. This is given by the publisher in hopes the book will sell enough copies to make that back. However, if a book doesn't "sell through" the author must PAY the advance BACK.
2. Publishers DO NOT give their writers money for marketing. When an author gives you a free book, bookmarks, swag, or prizes, she/he is paying for that out of her own pocket-usually w Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Leah Marie Brown (?)

“My mum refers to female genitalia as scones.”
Leah Marie Brown, Faking It

“The way she always stared at Leo was kind of disturbing. She twirled a lock of her wavy hair around a finger and batted her long, curly eyelashes at him. Once, in Chem class, Leo’s Chap Stick dropped out of his pocket and rolled across the floor without him noticing. Carrie picked it up. Later, I saw her pop the lid off, sniff it, and then rub it over her lips. She had this weird look on her face, a bit like when Buffalo Bill tossed the bottle of Jergens down to his victim in Silence of the Lambs. I half expected her to moan, “It rubs the Chap Stick on its lips.”
Leah Marie Brown, Faking It

“I grossly miscalculated the trajectory of his hotness. He was fat, had three chins, and no neck. And he was bald. He looked like a giant toe.”
Leah Marie Brown, Faking It

“Dantes remained confused and silent by this explanation of the thoughts which had unconsciously been working in his mind, or rather soul; for there are two distinct sorts of ideas, those that proceed from the head and those from the heart.”
Alexandre Dumas

“At the moment when her eyes closed, when all feeling vanished in her, she thought that she felt a touch of fire imprinted on her lips, a kiss more burning than the red-hot iron of the executioner.”
Victor Hugo, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame

“Okay. Ground rules,” I said, and locked gazes with Eli. “I pee alone and I shower alone. Some things need to remain a mystery, and those are two I firmly believe in.”
Elle Jasper, Afterlight

“I was grinding away to the climactic moan backtrack when I caught my reflection in the club’s mirror, hips rotating, booty shaking. Years later, Grace described my smooth moves as a sad epileptic white girl’s imitation of a twerk. Harsh. Could anyone look sexy dancing to lyrics that include “Sucky, sucky. Me sucky, sucky”? I don’t think so.”
Leah Marie Brown, Faking It

“If a man can't love you for who you are, he's not worth The Dior Gloss.”

Leah Brown Over 400 readers have added Faking It to their Goodreads to-be-read shelves, which means it's time to post a link to the special excerpt.

Here it is:http://leahmariebrown4.wix.com/leahma...

I hope you enjoy this sneak peek into Vivia's world. You can pre-order Faking It by following the links at the bottom of the excerpt.

It's also time to announce the winner of the Fandango gift card. The winner is *imagine a drum roll* Monet.

https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/1...

Congratulations Monet!

If you didn't win a prize this round, take heart! once I hit 500 readers, I will give away two more prizes and I will be choosing from everyone who has added Faking It to their to-be-read shelf. That means you can still win swag from MOI!

And, when this giveaway is over, I will be starting another, bigger one! Be sure to subscribe to my website or follow my Facebook account to get info about all my contests.
