Author Highlights Teen Friendship and the Aftermath of Domestic Abuse

NEWARK, Del. - Nov. 19, 2013 - PRLog -- J-pad Publishing (http://www.jpadpublishing.com/) of Newark, Delaware announced today that it will proudly publish The Colors of Love, Book Two of The Colors Trilogy (http://colorstrilogy.com/) by K. R. Raye (http://www.krraye.com/) on November 19, 2013 through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Ingram.  The highly-anticipated, contemporary, New Adult sequel follows three college friends as they try to continue their search for true love, NFL fame, and a successful engineering career in New York after surviving a traumatic, domestic abuse-related event.

The Colors of Love continues where the Amazon Best Selling novel The Colors of Friendship ends.  “Although the books are a fun, realistic read, I hope they also speak to the power of friendship and serve as a cautionary tale for young women searching for love who instead, settle for abuse,” said author, K. R. Raye.  To help combat domestic abuse, Raye will donate a portion of the profits from The Colors of Friendship to Rose Brooks Center of Kansas City, MO and St. Lawrence Valley Renewal House of Canton, NY, two agencies that help with domestic abuse prevention efforts.

The Colors of Love (ISBN # 1940361052,  BISAC = FIC000000, FIC049000, FIC043000) will publish globally through J-pad Publishing, and sell in the US for $15.95 paperback (465 pages) and $5.99 e-book. Review copies are available now.

J-pad Publishing will celebrate the release with a book-signing and launch event Sunday, November 24, 2013 from 1-3 pm at 2nd & Charles Bookstore, 101 Geoffrey Drive in Newark, DE 19713.  The author will perform readings and sign copies of the book available for purchase.
