Today I am featuring Author T. Hammond
I
am extremely excited to introduce you all to one of my newest favorite
authors & friends. This lovely lady won me over within moments,
& her books are just hysterically terrific! I devoured books 1-4 as
quickly as I could, & I admit I have been batting my eyes &
whispering sweet nothings in Tina's direction as often as possible to
convince her to share some #TeamRed excerpts, teasers...crumbs even! Hey, I'll take anything I can get!
The
genre can be a little difficult to decide on, so I like to tell people
that Tina's books don't jump out as paranormal to me. Yes there is a
"paranormal element", but they read much like a contemporary romance
style with a slight paranormal twist. Do NOT get me wrong her work is
not JUST a normal contemporary by any means! These are a true treat to
the senses! The characters are fabulously original & their scenes so
memorable we could be here all day while I recap the awesome from each
book with you...BUT I would much rather you read them for yourself.
**Feel free to chat with me all about it after.** ;) If the sarcastic
dog who repeats everything does not win you over surely the snarky come
backs from his loving family will have you jostling from laughter.
T feels that writing is not a calling so much as it is a compulsion. No one is more surprised than she is when characters take over the plot and dialog, and (re)direct stories in directions she had not (consciously) intended. She is fully convinced that the writer is the tool a story uses to tell its tale. Some tools, of course, are more appropriate for the job than others. Here's hoping, you feel she did her stories proud.
T. has a Bachelor's Degree in Organizational Management from Whitworth University, and a Master's Degree in Organizational Leadership from Gonzaga University and before becoming a writer she was a bookkeeper, technical/manual writer, Call Center Manager and the owner of a freshwater aquarium store, Guppy Tales.

T. Hammond lives in Spokane, WA with her
goofy, neurotic, long-coat German shepherd, Dexter; he's noble and
brave, until someone turns on the microwave, then she has 100lbs of
quivering dog trying to hide behind her chair or bury his head under a
pillow (Little known fact: a 100lb German Shepherd CAN fit under a
coffee table).
T. writes two concurrent versions of the Team Red
series for both the Adult and New Adult audiences. Blind Seduction and
Color Blind are part of the Blind series - featuring adult-themed erotic
romance combined with a humorous paranormal storyline. The Red series
featuring Red Rover and Red Zone (release date Aug 23rd) is a funny
paranormal romance series with a lighter PG13 type storyline. While both
series contain the same character names and a lot of shared dialogue,
the Red series is stripped of sexual content and language.T feels that writing is not a calling so much as it is a compulsion.

Color Blind ~ Team Red Series ~ Book #2
Blinded
and scarred in a freak accident a year ago, Teresa has finally found
love and a new career with the help of her companion dog, Red. Red
appears to be a typical German shepherd, but he shares a mental
communication link with his owner that is anything but ordinary. He’s
articulate, sassy and opinionated - he’s also scary-smart, and has a
talent for tracking.
Teresa and Red, have partnered with ex-Navy
men, David, and Bastian, to form Team Red. This unique Team helps the
local police department sift through evidence to find forensic clues
that only Red's sensitive nose, and Teresa's ability to ask the right
questions can uncover. A twist of fate brings Team Red to the attention
of the Military, and the Team gets ready for their first undercover
mission (we can only divulge at this point that Red looks adorable in
his tux).
WARNING:
This book is a Laugh-Out-Loud paranormal extra spicy romance (Yes, I’ve boldly meshed humor and sex *gasp!*). This Team Red book contains a feisty blind woman with a sassy attitude; a snarky German shepherd who stalks low flying objects (and the occasional cat); a man-cave with secret tunnels and classified military toys; two sexy retired Navy men with a talent for tactical planning; a formal invitation to a black and white ball; Marilyn Monroe; and a herd of Mustangs (okay, maybe ‘herd’ is a slight exaggeration).
*This book is INTENDED FOR MATURE ADULTS OVER 18. Sexual situations and adult language were used (and abused) in the making of this novel.

WHEN EVERYTHING TURNS UPSIDE DOWN
Picking up where Color Blind (book two) left off...
Teresa is reeling as her life comes crashing down around her. Betrayal of the worst kind has left her struggling to put on a brave front, setting aside shocked confusion, for the sake of those she cares about. Her telepathic sight dog, Red, and Bastian, help to anchor her against self-doubt and turbulent emotions.
Teresa’s colorful and varied friends arrive to celebrate Christmas as the “family” they have become. Her friends are unaware of her tattered heart, the day is appropriately filled with laughter and fun as she graciously greets her holiday guests. Thoughtful gifts are in abundance, including several wonderful surprises. Even Red gets into the festivities with his unique insight (and a bit of sneaky doggy logic).
Bastian has remained steadfast in his love and loyalty to Teresa, even when she chose David over him. But David has been living a lie, throwing all Teresa thought she knew into question. As Bastian continues to guard her personal safety against those trying to gain access to PreClan technology, can he also reassure Teresa he is worthy of her trust?

Blind Rage ~ Team Red Series ~ Book #4
Publication Date:
May 14, 2014
Fifteen months ago, an accident left Teresa
March scarred and completely blind. Having chosen David after a lively
Siege to win her love, Teresa was stunned by his admission, and
subsequent desertion, on Christmas Eve.
Bastian Declan, David’s business partner and Teresa’s childhood friend, has loved Teresa for years. He wastes no time seizing this new opportunity to finally win her heart.
While David is stuck in Boston hoping to resolve the conflict and restore his relationship with Teresa, PreClan’s top-secret surveillance system is at a critical stage. Tension is high, and the house is full of very capable guards, after another foiled attempt to steal the technology. Teresa, vacillating between hurt at David’s deception, and wonder at Bastian’s potential, doesn’t fully appreciate the danger.
Teresa’s service dog, Red, is smart, opinionated, handsome, and can talk. Well, at least to Teresa anyway. Understandably excited by all the activity, will his vigilance and unique bond with Teresa be enough to keep her safe?
BLIND RAGE picks up where Blind Faith (book three) left off. While Bastian patiently shows Teresa he can be the partner she needs, they both want closure regarding her relationship with David. Will Teresa choose to forgive David, or will she open herself up to the possibility of a more tumultuous love?
WELCOME TO TEAM RED!
BLIND RAGE will have you gasping in shock, sad with empathy, and Laughing-Out-Loud (literally- some readers caution you should not eat or drink while reading, or you will be spewing food/liquids when you get to the funny parts... err, which make up a large portions of the book). This version of the series is INTENDED FOR MATURE ADULTS OVER 18. Contains graphic sexual content, and swearing, which is unfortunate as the dog repeats everything.

Marcia and Wes have moved to Spokane, and the cancer vigil begins; her final wish is to see her son celebrate his 10th birthday. Compassionate friends, Janey, Ken, Tara, and Jason, take over Marcia’s care in an effort to relieve stress as Teresa wages her relentless struggle against PTSD nightmares and paranoia.
Bastian is at an undisclosed East Coast location doing PreClan military software upgrades. At home, David is exerting subtle, yet unrelenting, pressure to give him a second chance, proving how little he understands the woman he professed to love. Will David’s obsession and persistence completely destroy his tenuous relationship with her and Bas?
Teresa takes comfort in Red’s constant and supportive presence. His antics and doggy wisdom keep her smiling as she waits not-so-patiently for Bastian to return. Tank bonds with Wes as the sad little boy watches his mom slip away.
The house is full of Mustangs, and the Wild Horse Compound, now affectionately referred to as Mustang Ranch, is only a few weeks away from completion. There is a feeling of security, yet not—Teresa’s anxiety attacks seem to disregard logic. Thankfully, the Team Red detail understands and supports her as she battles unseen demons.
WARNING: This book is a Laugh-Out-Loud paranormal extra spicy romance (A bold mesh of military tech, humor, and sex). The Team Red series contains a feisty blind woman; a snarky German shepherd who stalks low flying objects (and the occasional cat); two sexy retired Navy men with a talent for tactical planning; a man-cave with secret tunnels and classified military toys; Marilyn Monroe and other celebrity voices; and a herd of Mustangs.
