Hello! I'm Jerri Drennen and I'm a romantic suspense author. I know a lot of writers say they've been penning words to paper all their lives or knew they always wanted to. I can't say that. I didn't even have the thought until my younger daughter was 3. I had 4 children at that time and needed an escape--maybe I should say outlet. Writing gave me that. It helped me cope with the daily struggles of raising children. My first attempt at authoring a book is hidden somewhere, awful, a kind word for the epic 400 page romance. Anyway, when I was working on my third book, I found a critique group that helped teach me the craft of writing and the rest is history. I've written 20-plus stories, some unfinished but everyone having taught me something along the way. I think my husband thought in the beginning this was a passing fancy for me, but over a decade later he knows this is who I am--a romance writer, and he is my biggest supporter! My kids on the other hand tell everyone I write porn.

A Chick Who Reads
By Jerri Drennen
Blurb
If James Bond and Cleopatra Jones had a daughter, Adriana Kent would kick her ass.
Everything Adriana knows about being a top-notch, undercover agent she's learned from her partner, Flint Morgan, in and out of the sheets. That is, until he's caught between those same bed linens with another woman. Heartbroken, Adriana refuses to forgive him. But when 'the other woman' is found dead in Flint's apartment, she steps up to prove his innocence--he might be a womanizer, but he's no killer.
As Adriana closes in on a suspect, she's kidnapped and sent overseas to a sadistic prince who collects women like priceless pieces of art. Now this tough as nails agent finds herself playing the helpless courtesan to a man hell-bent on breaking her spirit. Flint arrives in the nick of time, dressed as a harem girl, fighting off randy guards and surly camels to rescue Adriana so they can fly back to the states to find a way to exonerate him for murder.
Author Bio:
Jerri Drennen was raised on a farm in a tiny town in Minnesota where the winters were long and being stuck inside awarded her the opportunity to read and tell stories. Years later, after moving away from family, marrying her husband of twenty-five years and having their four children, she started writing when her youngest was three. Eleven years and many manuscripts later, she has one contemporary romance and three romantic suspense novellas with Samhain Publishing, a category romantic suspense at The Wild Rose Press and two action-adventure romances at Liquid Silver Books. Now, she's trying her hand at self-publishing

LOL. Love that your kids say you write porn. That's what my husband says about my writing.
LOL - love the 'she writes porn'bit. And am secretly glad that bebe has no clue what I write. Yet.
I want to thank Fangtastic Books for having me here today!
Thanks for coming by, Sharon!
Kristina, your day is coming!
Great post, Jerri! Having read a lot of your work, I have to tell everyone "Don't miss HER MAN FLINT"! If you don't have it yet, get it today, you'll be glad you did. Thanks for sharing, Jerri!
You are too sweet, Katie!
My DH calls them soap operas, LOL Looking forward to reading all about Flint!
Neecy

Congrats on your awesome book Jerri...the first line of your blurb is a winner and MAKES you have to read on.
Thanks for stopping by, Neecy!
Gotta love those kids! Glad you came by, Christine.
The book sounds GREAT!
Love your cover too.
I bet your kids end up selling more books for you than the hubster. *g
Everyone will want to check out the "porn." lol
Can't wait to read this book.
I understand the porn comment, although my son just rolls his eyes. It's my husband who puts it a little different. He says I write smut, but for some reason he wants to read those sex scenes. LOL.
Keep up the good work.
Best of luck with the tour! Hope many more people realize what a great book Her Man Flint is.
Not sure about that Trish, but a sale is a sale, right?
My husnand has read a few of my books, Lorriane. Not sure if it was for the sex or not.
You're a doll to say that, Ellie!
Awesome Post, Jerri! I still love that cover! Wishing you the very best.
You are so sweet, Jadette!
Love the pron bit.... Congrats on your release.
Hi, Sara! So glad you came by!
Having read a number of Jerri's stories, I can decidedly affirm the lady does not write "porn." Great suspense with well-designed plots... absolutely.
Okay. Sometimes the characters take their clothes off.
And get a little chummy under a blanket, or in the jungle, or...
