For 25 year old attorney, Hindley Hagen, life is all about staying one step ahead of the game. Avoiding surprises and keeping people at a distance is the only way she has to protect herself from the painful scars and shattered memories of her past. When Hindley is offered a new position at her prestigious Austin law firm as sports agent for pro skateboarder, Rory Gregor, she’s ready for the new challenge but completely unprepared for the man who captures her heart. Suddenly, Hindley is thrust into a world where protecting all their secrets could cost her everything; her family, her career, and maybe even her life.
Professional skateboarder and X Games royalty, Rory Gregor knows what it’s like to be at the top. But after two years of bad decisions and one-night-stands, he’s having to make a comeback he never anticipated. Hiring a new agent may be what his team thinks he needs to rebuild his career, but what if it costs him his heart in the process? Just when he thinks he’s posed for a comeback, secrets from his past threaten to ruin his chance for gold and a new love. In a sport where trust means everything, this time… it may not be enough.
Find out the dramatic conclusion to Rory and Hindley’ story in My Skater Boy (X-Treme Boys Series, Book 2), available now.

How is Writing In Your Genre Different from Others?
I write about extreme sports. My main characters aren’t ba-zillionaires rushing in to save the poor college grad who’s trying to make her place in this world. Instead my books are about broken people trying to become whole while battling demons of their past. My books touch on serious issues facing our society, and as part of my due diligence, I include a list of resources for readers in case they’re facing the same challenges.

Author Bio:
Kay Manis lives in Austin, Texas with her husband, daughter and five pound Chihuahua affectionately named “Tiny.” When not writing or researching you’ll find Kay reading a good book, eating out with friends or napping.
Kay’s biggest goal in writing is to amuse, inspire and entertain. If she’s done that for you then she says she’ll always consider herself a success.
What Inspired You to Write Your Book?I saw Rob Dyrdek, an extreme sports pro skateboarder on his MTV show, Ridiculousness, and wondered if a ghetto boy like Rob had ever fallen for a seemingly unattainable woman, worldly, professional and rich.
