15 DEC 2022 · Join me as I interview Author Teir Marks who will share her current release, Her Policeman from the Men In Uniform Series. Kaydence hadn’t expected to see Axel that night at the school while setting up for her ten-year reunion, and since he seemed to beat around the bush, she took matters into her own hands. She had no issue with going after what and who she wanted. Even with him having a decade-old history with her older sister’s best friend. Axel knew her in high school, but the woman he ran into that night at the school had him wanting to get to know her all over again, in every way possible. He hadn’t been in a serious relationship over the past several years. His past military service and current profession were too much for some women, so he’d kept dating light. Now, he was ready to go all in. Follow Kaydence and Axel as they navigate this new relationship, and deal with the highs and lows that come along with it. Teir's mind is a labyrinth of worlds filled with people who are dying to meet you. She spins storylines that drag you in and hold you hostage, but in all honesty, you won't want them to let you go! Teir enjoys weaving intricate tales that will have you at the edge of your seat, and the compulsion to keep turning the page overwhelms you. She was born in Little Rock, AR, but grew up in a small town in which she still lives with her fur babies. Teir enjoys writing more than anything else and does it more often than not. She tries to delve into several genres that may intrigue you, while putting her own twist on them. Her narratives reflect the people whom she writes about and she hopes you come to know and enjoy them all!
