Feel
Playlist for the love story of Jensen and
Saige.
First of all, I just want to say that I
am such a fan girl of musicians and their incredible talent. The inspiration music provides is a gift.
All of Me by John Legend
If I had to pick one song that best
describes how I believe Jensen feels about Saige, it’s absolutely this
one! So much love for this song.
Fall for You by Secondhand Serenade
This song is amazing! It fits Jensen and Saige’s story perfectly.
The Great Escape by Pink
I love Pink, and this song reminds me so
much of Saige and her struggle with all the hell she goes through from her
abilities. I listened to The Great Escape countless times writing
Feel.
Let Me Go by Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger
I listened to Let Me Go often while writing the beginning of Feel. The feel of the song fits the depth of
emotions Saige felt when Jensen sent her away, then showed up in her life four
years later.
My Only by Since October
This is such a beautiful song!
Broken by Lifehouse
Another great song that seems to fit
Saige so well.
Hemorrhage in My Hands by Fuel
I can’t say too much about the part of
Feel I wrote while listening to this song because I don’t want to give anything
away to the readers, but it involves when Jensen sent Saige away.
The Kill by Thirty Seconds to Mars
Saige goes through hell with her
abilities of being able to feel everything from everyone…except Jensen. I listened to The Kill while writing some of Saige’s most emotional scenes.
In These Arms by Bon Jovi
Soooo, I broke my number one rule….never,
ever listen to Bon Jovi while writing because my thoughts always turn to that
amazingly talented man with the unbelievably sexy voice and anything coherent
in my head is gone - poof - yep, that’s what Bon Jovi does to me. He’s my favorite singer and has been since I
was in fifth grade! But, this song
reminded me of Jensen’s character; I just couldn’t resist.
Baptized by Daughtry
Another amazing singer! I could listen to this song over and over and
never get tired of it, which I did a lot while writing those smoking, sexy
scenes between Jensen and Saige.
Empire by Shakira
Who doesn’t love Shakira? I also listened to this song with those fun,
steamy scenes.
Can’t Pretend by Tom Odell
A sexy song that I enjoyed listening to
while writing those passion building parts in Feel.
Skyscraper by Demi Lavato
I love the strength in this song. Saige never thought she was strong until she
was forced to be on her own. Despite all
her hell, and how broken she is, her strength is astounding.
All In by Lifehouse
Such a feel good song. When I hear this, I see Jensen and Saige
finally finding their HEA!
I was also ecstatic to have come across
Lindsey Sterling while I was looking up violin music on YouTube. I can’t believe I had never heard of her
before. She is unbelievable!

Book Description:
The one whose emotions I can’t feel is the one who makes me feel the most.
I was a sensitive, at least that’s what I was told by the boy who saved me from the overwhelming emotions that consumed my soul, the boy who saved me from myself when my gift became stronger. Through the years, he was my redemption, my reason to take my next breath…then, he was gone.
Jensen always told me I was strong, but I didn’t believe him until I was forced to be strong on my own, and I kept breathing without him. I’ve taken 42 million breaths since the moment he sent me away. Now, four years later, he’s standing in front of me, and I can barely breathe.
This isn’t just a story about the abilities I possess; it’s a story about something much stronger…the love of the man who possesses every part of me.

Excerpt:
I place my hand over his,
leaning my cheek against the warmth of his touch before backing away so I can
see him. I’m insane for falling for him
again, but it seems my heart isn’t giving me a choice at the moment, ignoring
how the rest of me is scared as hell it will never survive if he breaks it this
time.
“I don’t want you to hurt,” I whisper. I don’t.
“Then, please stop fighting what we are together and get your
stubborn ass over here so I can kiss you like I haven’t seen your pretty face
in four long fucking years.”
I
take one step towards him and that’s all he needs to wrap me in his arms,
pulling me against his chest to close the rest of the distance between us as
his hungry mouth collides against mine.
His teeth nip the fullness of my bottom lip then his tongue caresses and
strokes the sensitive, tingling skin.
All strength in my body is stolen by the liberating dominance in his
kiss, bruising and healing wrapped in one breathtaking seduction. My knees no longer work, but the rest of my
body becomes alive, responding to his touch, awakening me from the emptiness
I’ve lived in for so long. This is what
I’ve craved. What I’ve missed. His taste, scent, and touch have haunted me,
and I breathe them all in deeply now, terrified they will be gone again.
His fingers slide against my neck before softly tangling my hair in his
fist. My head spins at his gentle touch
mixed with his rough, passionate kiss.
My lips part, granting his tongue all the access it wants, and he takes
it greedily, sliding his tongue against mine, taming and setting me free. His kiss is scorching, searing me as liquid
heat pulses low in my stomach. I feel
the damp cotton pressing against where I need him to be so badly right now.
Soft whimpers rumble up my throat, the needy pants muffled against his hot
mouth. Jensen’s hand pulls me flush to his body and I feel him, hardened and
throbbing, against my stomach. My gasp
fills the air. I twist my waist,
straddling myself against the muscles on his thigh.
