About the Author
Lyra Parish loves to write, travel, and sing obnoxiously loud at the top of her lungs in the shower. Sweet love stories (along with the dirty ones) make her gush.
She is a firm believer that a person can never have to many cats, cups of coffee, or read to many happily ever after's. When she isn't busy writing, she can be found sipping various beverages from her non-alcoholic drink buffet, pimp slapping excel spreadsheets, or riding her bike.
Weak for Him (Weakness #1) is Lyra's debut novel. Weak Without Him (Weakness #2) will release Spring 2014. The full series will be complete in 2014.
Lyra currently resides in Texas with her hubby and black cat.

Acknowledgements
Someone once told me that too many authors write long acknowledgements at the end of their books as if they were winning an Oscar or something. I laughed and then reviewed mine: seven pages. Yes, seriously seven pages, where I would have inevitably forgotten someone and then felt like a total ass for weeks. So instead of doing that, I would like to give a huge thank you to everyone that supported me along the way. Thank you to the countless groups, Twitter followers, Pinterest obsessors, Goodreads girls, teaser sharers, beautiful bloggers, message writers, beta readers (Tiffany, Christy, Tabitha, Elle, Tara), advanced reviewers, fan/Finn girls, Luke Lovers, Xpresso Tours, Love Between the Sheets Tours, The Elite (Looove Y'all), and everyone else that showed an overpowering, all ensuing, enthusiasm about Weak for Him. You sure do know how to make a girl feel special! Thank you for all that you’ve done! Without you, I am nothing. With you, I am everything.
I do have to mention one person. Will, I love you. Thank you for supporting me while I wrote and for pulling me away when I wouldn’t stop. For laughing at my deadlines so I would meet them just to prove you wrong. For wanting to practice scenes, letting me look at countless bulges (laughing at me while I do it), and still kissing me regardless of the dirty things I make my characters do.
To the aspiring: Becoming a published author will not be an easy journey. You may lose and gain friends along the way. You will learn who really cares about you and who is in it for themselves. There will be roadblocks, bumps, and hard lessons. You will have personal struggles. You will think you suck (a lot), and you may at first, but after all of that, don't let anyone ever tell you that you aren't good enough. Keep honing your skills. Keep revising. And for the love of god, keep writing. Always be humble in your success. Always thank those that have helped and continue to help along the way. Be human and allow yourself to make mistakes but also let positivity, love, and honesty guide you. Those emotions and traits are so powerful that they themselves can create greatness. If you become the type of person that you look for in others, you will aspire to inspire.
What others are saying about Weak for Him
"If you think I am bluffing by when I say that "Weak For Him" will give you the ride of lifetime, then I say, take a gamble and see for yourself."
–Tiffany, The Naughty Book Dames
"Within 3 Days I read it thrice! Every time I wanted to write my review…I ended up re-reading it! I’ve read thousands of books! And I BARELY ever re-read! It's something that never happens."
–Lesley-Lynn, Lezley-Lynn's Book Blog
"Oh my word... Talk about being hot and bothered. I was like that the entire time reading this book from the very beginning to the very end. Ladies, make sure you have your B.O.B. nearby."
–Lisa, Goodreads Reviewer
"I fell in love with this book. I loved the angst felt in this book, the sexual tension and the need/urgency between Jen and Finn and Jen and Luke. The twists in this book were awesome and the background character added to my love."
–Tara, Goodreads Reviewer
"Lyra Parish does an amazing job making you feel like you are right there in the story the whole time. The characters are developed beautifully and the flow and plot of the story is awesome. She never leaves you lacking. I felt sated and satisfied thru the entire book. Her choice of words and the way she shapes her story with them is gorgeous. Bottom line...buy the damn book, have a towel and fan handy and get ready to light up those ciggs when your done cause your gonna need one."
–Tara (Colourful Wordwench), Word Wenches Guilty Pleasure
"I read this book in one sitting. I seriously couldn't put it down. There was one point where I had to pee and literally held it because my kindle needed to be on the charger and couldn't go with me. (LOL, that's when you know a book is awesome!) I really just loved every minute of this book and I can't wait to read the sequel. I know it is going to rock! If I could I would give this book like thirty more stars, y'all!"
–Megan, Literary Confessions of a Mom with Frizzy Hair
"Wow! Holy shit! How is this a debut novel? Those are a couple of thoughts that come to mind whilst reading Weak for Him! Not only is it sexy, captivating, beautifully written, gripping, hotter than hell itself but it is beyond interesting and leaves you with absolutely no choice but to read it in one sitting! One more chapter syndrome defines this book!"
