 From the moment, Keith Urban appeared on the Country Music Video station, I was hooked. His blond tousled hair and suede shirt....to his sexy singing voice. I knew I would always be a fan. I watched the music video to "Raining on Sunday" over and over again. I purchased the CD and sang along, wishing I was in a jeep riding across the desert with him. However, the chances I would ever get to meet Keith face to face are slim. But a passion for a music star knows no bounds. It's that way with Finn Murphy in Country Roads. While he's just starting out, he's instantly recognized on the street or in the airport. Lara and Finn attended college together but were friends (or friend-enemies, spatting and dishing each other). When Finn's nephew volunteers Finn to play at a benefit at Lara's school, their paths cross and this time sparks fly. EXCERPT: It was when I was looking at the board listing the arrivals and departures and thinking my nerves were too shot to even sit and wait, that I heard my name. It wasn’t loud. In fact, it was a bit winded. But I knew the voice well. Despite there being a number of people swarming around that area, I saw Finn instantly. He was a good few feet away. His head was shaking ever so slightly as he was pleading me with my eyes to come to him. When I didn’t move, he looked around. I knew he didn’t want to be recognized. There were times when he didn’t mind it as much, but this…this certainly wasn’t one of them. And he didn’t have on any type of clothing that could be used as a disguise—not a ball cap, hoodie, or even glasses. Standing there in the brown suit he had worn to the party, it was probably close to a sure bet that someone would identify him. But I guess he was willing to take that risk, because he walked toward me. I knew then that it was inevitable that we were going to talk. I certainly wasn’t going to take off running in my decorative heels and cocktail dress, after all. “What? Where are you going?” His eyes swept repeatedly across mine. “Home.” I kept it simple. “Why? No. Lar, please…please don’t leave.” There was a bit of panic when he said that last word. BLURB: A young woman content with her solitary life. A rising country music star. They were friends once …until their lives took them down separate roads. Now, years later, when a child volunteers his uncle to sing for a fundraiser, LARA FAULKNER realizes it is none other than her college pal, FINN MURPHY. As the two get a chance to reconnect, Lara reveals to a compassionate Finn details of her shocking past and the traumatic decision she had to make. Through trust and love, the bond between Finn and Lara deepens as the country singer manages to get an emotionally scarred Lara to let down her self-proclaimed walls. But will secrets, lies, and tragedy cause a bumpy detour on their road to complete happiness? Emotional, dramatic, heartwarming… fall in love with COUNTRY ROADS – the first in a continuing series by author Grea Warner. Make Sure to Pick Up the Book Which Kept Me Up All Night!

There really wasn’t any other path. Grea Warner knew from a young age that she wanted to write. She was born to write. First it was in diaries with little metal keys and in written tales that she slipped to friends in study hall. School newspapers, a college television drama, and internships in the soap opera world were next. After producing and writing a local show, she decided to delve into the world of the novelist. When her fingers aren’t tapping out her latest book filled with angst and romance, Grea can be found hiking the trails or jamming to her favorite country artists on the radio.
