Cover Reveal and Contest for AFTER HOURS!

Hi everyone!

I am incredibly excited to reveal two new things about my upcoming book...the first of which is a new title!  That's right - the book is no longer called ON THE CLOCK.  It's called AFTER HOURS, which I love because I think it's fabulous and just a bit scandalous - much like the story!

So without further ado...here is the COVER!


My editor promised sexy AND funny and I think they pulled it off!

So now that you've seen the cover, what's it all about?

Isa, Xavi, Peter, and Finn know that a job at the high-end Waterside Cafe isn't just about waiting tables. It's about the gossip, the hook-ups, the after-hours parties and, most of all, it's about Tips.



Tips--the high-stakes game based on dares. Whoever completes the most dares wins the collected money. A sum that could change a wasted summer into a Summer to Remember.



Isa is the new girl with an embarrassing secret, and as long as she stays on top of her game, she sees no reason why anyone could ever find out.



Xavi will do anything for the money...absolutely anything.



Peter, Xavi's stepbrother, has been in love with her for years, and he thinks the game is the perfect time to confess his feelings.



Finn is in the game just for the thrill. He has enough tips coming in to keep him happy...even if those tips come with some conditions.



From seduction to stealing to threats, the dares are a complete free-for-all, and only the best can win.



The sophisticated Waterside Cafe is anything but classy behind the scenes...and things are about to get dirty.



Now, I promised PRIZES!  And guess what?  There are TWO ways to win.  Yep.  Two.

Prize one:  $50 gift card to OpenTable.com (since the book is mainly set in a restaurant!) and a $25 Barnes and Noble gift card

How to win:  Leave a comment on this blog entry! One winner will be randomly selected from the comments!

This contest will be open for seven days.  The contest closes on 6/26 at 1:00 PM CT.
Prize two:  $25 Barnes and Noble Gift Card 

How to win: Tweet with the Hashtag #AfterHoursGiveaway and let people know about AFTER HOURS and the cover reveal!  A winner will be randomly chosen!  Remember - you can find me on twitter @amandakmorgan. :)

The Twitter contest closes 6/22 at 11:00am CT.

You may only enter the Twitter contest ONCE.

Please note you MAY enter for both prizes, but two separate winners will be selected.  If you are randomly selected for both prizes, you will receive prize one and another name will be selected for prize two.

Lastly, if you would like a jumbo bookmark with the fab cover and AFTER HOURS info, please reach out to me and I'll make sure you're mailed one!  Catch me at amanda k morgan (at) hotmail dot com.

A very special thank you to Russell Gordon, the designer at Simon Pulse who created this pretty cover and my amazing editor, Michael Strother! :)

Happy AFTER HOURS cover day and thanks for playing! :)  Please feel free to tweet, share on Facebook, instagram, tumblr, whatever!

Twangin' On the Road...Again!


Woo hoo! Big week for Typewriters and Twang!

 June has been such an exciting month for me and the LL Team and it’s only half way done! We loved traveling though the Smokey Mountains to play in Ten Mile, Tennessee, and then traveling back to Nashville to start the CMA Country Music Fest week! It is such an exciting week in Nashville around 80,000 country music fans travel to Music City for the four-day festival! I had the chance to perform acoustically in the Glass Tower of the Bridgestone Arena on Thursday and then I got to sign autographs at the Roper Apparel both inside the Fan Fair X. It was awesome to meet so many country fans!

I went to my first CMA fest when I was 16 years old and I dreamed about the day I would have a stage to sing on that week and it came true so I was excited! After CMA fest we headed to Lincoln, Nebraska to play a show downtown and then on to Chingawassa Days in Marion, KS where we opened for Love and Theft! Then we spent a few days in the Rocky Mountains visiting radio stations and finally landed back in Nebraska! It is a good thing I enjoy sleeping in hotels.. FREE Coffee!

“You Can Leave” has reached “69” on the Music Row Country Breakout Chart! We are so excited with its progress and we just found out today that 3 Billboard stations have added the song this week! If you haven’t seen the music video it is attached at the bottom and you can also download and stream the song from www.lexilarsen.com.  You can check the Radio Map on the Facebook page to find a station near you playing it, every time it is requested at one of those stations it helps!

Check out "You Can Leave" here! 



I shared some photos from the past couple weeks and I hope you enjoy them! We are excited about a busy summer, and we hope to see you at some upcoming shows! Who is excited for Mandy's BIG SURPRISE!?!

Love Always,

Lexi Larsen

Watch this blog: contests and some pretty cool news!

Hey all!

Lexi's on the road, promoting her still-rising single "You Can Leave" and I'm holding down the fort in Nashville - and I have some exciting news!

But here's the deal.  I can't tell you - yet

I can, however, be that irritating person that drops hints and you're standing there like, OMG, JUST TELL ME ALREADY.  But I won't.  I'm say, for example, I have two things to share.  And BOTH have to do with my upcoming book.

And even better (for YOU, at least) is that I'm giving away some pretty cool prizes!

So stay tuned and bookmark this page for details on what and how you can win!
