How much
is too much for a battered soul to handle? Tristan Hart is determined to get
his life back together, without anyone holding his hand. Being bipolar doesn’t
mean he has to be dependent on others, and he’s going to prove that come hell
or high water. As he works one foot in front of the other, something keeps
pulling him backwards. There are days he feels close to knowing what is holding
him down, but then it slips away with his next breath.
With all
these crosses to bear, he doesn’t feel worthy of affection and works hard at
keeping an emotional distance between himself and those around him. Fate throws
him a curve ball when he finds himself needing help from an unlikely source and
his life tips upside down…yet again.
How many
times can Tristan hit rock bottom before it’s too much? Has fate paved his road
to redemption alone, or is there someone else that is meant to be by his side?

Fighting
For You (Redemption Series 1)
Tristan Hart is just getting started out in the world, when he is handed a severe blow that breaks down every barrier he has ever erected. What gets left behind is a twenty-four year old tortured soul, searching for the road to redemption.
Peyton Bauer is
a natural born nurturer that wants nothing more than to care for those in her
life. She carries her own past that she keeps carefully hidden from everyone.
Peyton and Tristan are thrown together by fate and the attraction between them
is instant.
Tristan sees
his recovery as slow going, but even still, he is ignoring a part of himself
that often times appears in his dreams. Those dreams hold so much more than
Tristan is willing to acknowledge and it holds him back.
Tristan and
Peyton struggle to find a happy medium for themselves as the relationship heats
up. Tristan is left with a difficult decision that he doesn’t want to make.
How far will
they go to hang on to something doomed to fail? Will Tristan’s life make strides
in the right direction, or does his lack of foresight cause his world to come
crumbling down?

Welcome
Hazel, I am so excited to have you here at Just One More Romance. Thank you so

with us. Can you tell us a little bit about yourself?
Thank you for having me! I am
a mother of two from a rural town in Minnesota, and am happily married to my
Alpha Male Hero. We lead a fairly simple
life, and spend as much time as we can being a normal family (well, not sure
what normal really is…LOL) I grew up on
a farm, and have a tendency to “play” in the mud a lot. I dabble in a little bit of everything in my
day, from writing romance, bartending, retail sales, farm work, you name it!!
I can’t wait to read your new book Being With You. Can you describe the book in 30 words or less?
Being With You is the continuation of Tristan’s story…he is working
to put himself back together, mind, body and soul. His love interests get deeply complicated and
he has some hard decisions to make.
Where did you draw your inspiration for this story?
