Cry Me a River PG-13


Recently I had a mom contact me about my Contemporary Romance, Cry Me a River.  She told me she thought her teen daughter would benefit from reading it, but the sex is too steamy.  The book has a love story, but it isn't about the sex, it's about overcoming obstacles.  Many young people don't realize there's an organization called Al Anon, which is a group for someone living with an addict.  Al Anon is a support group that lets its members know they are not alone, and coping skills to deal with the addict.

When it came down to it, Cry Me a River doesn't need the sex or F-words to get the point across.  Don't get me wrong, I did NOT censor the book, the original is still available.  I made a PG-13 edition of the book for my younger readers.  There are still some cuss words, and there is a very watered down love scene, but it is something I'm comfortable for my younger readers to read.  It is still PG-13, so not all parents will allow the book, but kids see much worse on regular TV.  The covers are different, the PG-13 edition is red and you can see River's face.

Thank you to all of my readers for your loyalty and love.  XOXO Devyn






CRY ME A RIVER PG-13 IS A STAND ALONE BOOK 

The PG-13 Special Edition is the watered down version of my Contemporary Romance version of this book. The language has been watered down and the romantic scenes are less steamy. The original version is also available. 

Twenty-Three year old tattoo'd foul mouthed chef Caide Palmer, has it all…a house by the beach, a TV show, a beautiful daughter and people who adore him. Life was near perfect, until Heather, the mother of his daughter dies of an accidental drug overdose. 

River Murphy, a stunning twenty-two year old business owner who loves animals and good friends. Living a life with an alcoholic mother and abusive boyfriend, River should be totally mad at the world, she isn't. Instead, she turns to Al Anon a support group for those who live with or love an addict. 

Caide didn't expect his ex's parents to fight him for custody, but they did. The court orders Caide to Al Anon to come to terms with his loss. River and Caide find themselves in the midst of a evil plot to sabotage the one thing that has kept River going, her business. Will Caide be able to be the one to protect River? 

Review of the ORIGINAL version - 

"This is an awesome adult contemporary romance. A must read for readers 18+ and one you can read over and over and love it the same." 
~ Book on the Bright Side 

"Devyn writes a story filled with passion, strength, and mystery. She is a master at producing twists and turns that only add to the intensity of this read." ~ Griffin's Honey
