SYNOPSIS –
Have you ever gone just a little
too far?
Lexie Banks has.
Yep. She just had mind-blowing sex
with her stepbrother. In her defense, she was on the rebound, and it’s more of
a my-dad-happened-to-marry-a-woman-with-a-super-hot-son situation. But still,
he’s been her best friend and confidant for the better part of the last few
years … and is so off limits. It’s a good thing she’s leaving in two days for a
year abroad in Rome.
But even thousands of miles away,
Lexie can’t seem to escape trouble. Raised Catholic, she goes to confession in
hopes of alleviating some of her guilt … and maybe not burning in hell.
Instead, she stumbles out of the confessional and right into Alessandro
Moretti, a young and very easy-on-the-eyes deacon … only eight months away from
becoming a priest. Lexie and Alessandro grow closer, and when Alessandro’s
signals start changing despite his vow of celibacy, she doesn’t know what to
think. She’s torn between falling in love with the man she shouldn’t want and
the man she can’t have. And she isn’t sure how she can live with herself either
way.
Lisa Desrochers lives in central California with her husband and
two very busy daughters. There is never a time that she can be found without a
book in her hand, and she adores stories that take her to new places, and then
take her by surprise.
Look for her New Adult novel, A LITTLE TOO FAR ,

MUCH (Nov 12, 2013), and A LITTLE TOO HOT (Jan
21, 2014). Also in stores is her YA PERSONAL DEMONS trilogy

PLAYLIST –
ALTF playlist
I wrote A LITTLE TOO FAR in
thirteen days in January, and revised for another week, so the playlist is
pretty short. But because my muse is a wannabe rockstar, there is always a
musical inspiration for each of my books.
For Lexie, everything changes
in one moment of weakness. She’s left to sort through what she truly wants out
of life, and then to figure out how to let go of the things she can’t have. The
song that most embodies her is Ross Copperman’s “Holding On and Letting Go.”
Alessandro’s song relates to
his struggle to decide what his path is as he faces down his demons, and his
desire to help Lexie face down her own. It’s Staind “Believe”
And Trent, who’s been Lexie’s
best friend and confidant, but sees that slipping away, is most embodied by Rob
Thomas’ “Ever the Same.”
This whole book is basically
a tribute to Jason Wade, the mastermind behind Lifehouse, whose songs beg to be
written into books. “All In” and “Falling In” are the two main songs that
played on repeat while I was writing.
