Damaged Series –
both are standalones




Damaged

My life. Where to start? I’m determined, athletic, stubborn as hell, intelligent and focused on the game. There isn’t a day that goes by that doesn’t include softball, my family and friends.

I have had it all in my 25 years, fame, love, partying, you name it - I have probably experienced it. However, the one thing I wish I never did experience was heartbreak. I was ruined in all ways. Damaged in such a way, where I thought I would never be the same girl I was before.

All until HE showed up in my life, turning everything upside down. Now, I need to decide if I will hit it foul or out of the park.

Who knows what will happen?

All I know, is that this pitch will either make or break me - leaving me completely broken and damaged.

 




Broken:

You walk up to field, thinking nothing can get better than this. My life has been all about sports, women and my family. I'm the MVP of my life. I'm unstoppable, nothing can break me.
Until one day, she walked up to field to watch me play. In softball, there isn't a lot that can trip me up. But this girl, did just that. She is my equal on and off the field. I'm no longer the MVP of my game. She stole it from me.

Now, when I walk up to the plate. I have two options, swing for the fences or strike out looking.
The love for the game combined with the love for her could leave me broken.

 


Med Rom Series



Flatline:

This is how my life goes. It’s pretty damn simple. I work with very little play. I’m an ICU Dietitian. What exactly does this mean? My career is my one true love. Nothing else compares.

Until one night, I decided to go outside my comfort zone.
A little friendly flirting turned into a night filled with want and need.
Not once did I ever think I would do something like this.
One-night stand, no strings attached.
Me leaving the next morning, hoping to never see him again.

Boy, was I wrong.

He works with me.
A fucking doctor!

Interview With Kristine Dugger:


1. Can you tell us a little about your books?

-I would like to say my books are emotionally filled fun. My first two books Damaged/Broken are the same books but from different point of views. Damaged is hers and Broken is his. I feel both these books are quite unique in their setting. They are centered around the competitive slow pitch softball scene. Believe it or not, it is a big thing here in the Midwest. My characters are real people who could see yourself hanging out with.

 

My third book is Flatline. Now, this books is really naughty. I am a dietitian. With that, I decided to write a book about a dietitian and doctor romance. I like to say I make nutrition sexy. Like all my books, it has a lot of humor in them. Flatline is very special to me. And the reason is for this because there are scenes that are true to the healthcare scene. The emotions of losing a patient, the connection to a patient and work banter. Oh, the naughty scene are steamy.

 

2. What inspires you to write?
-Writing for me is an outlet. I have always been a writer. It is something about these ideas and putting them down on paper. I am very fortunate for this ability to tell a story. But my biggest inspiration would be my daughters. I like to show them you could be smart and creative at the same time. I think we all have a creative side to us.

 

3. Do you listen to music while you write?

-Listening to music is a must while I write. My music choices tend to me a little bipolar. One moment, I am listening to 90’s R&B and the next I am listening to heavy metal. It really depends on my moods. But I do have to say, heavy metal music really helps me write my sex scenes.

 

4. Do you have a favorite character to write about?

Actually, yes. I am currently working on two stories - Pulse which is the follow up to Flatline and F*ck the MC. Presley from F*ck the MC is my favorite as of now. I think it is because her personality is so similar to mine. I think that is why she has been so easy to write.

 

5. If you ever experience a case of writer’s block, how do you cure it?
-Oh the dreaded writer’s block. When I hit a wall, I tend to read. It helps give my brain a break from thinking. It usually cures it in two days.

 

6. When you write do you write the first draft on a computer or paper and pen?

-Everything is on computer for me. I write too damn slow for paper and pen. When the ideas hit, typing is so much faster. Plus, with pen and paper, you are doing double the work. I just don’t have time for that.

 

7. What's your favorite season?

-Definitely summer. I love the heat and wearing tank tops/flip flops.

 

8. What are writing projects are you currently working on?

-Currently, I am finishing up Pulse because my readers wanted it yesterday. I have two MC stories in the making too, Love the MC and F*ck the MC.
