He really bothers some people!
I'm continuing to get comments about Cormac, my hard-to-like hero in Ruthless Boss, Hired Wife. Wow, he really got under some people's skin! I think that's a good thing though. I set out to write a totally ruthless, manipulative man who is redeemed by love and I suppose I succeeded--at least in the first part! He is a total jerk. I won't apologize for him :) But I hope by the end he is changed, and the reader can see that.It's interesting, and I've written this before, how my books have developed and changed. I'm starting--weeeell, supposedly starting--my eighth book, and it has a very different feel than my first three. I think my heroines have matured and my heroes have mellowed, although I hope I'm not sacrificing that wonderful intensity that is so much part of a Presents!
Speaking of books, I have a few copies of my fourth release, The Italian's Bought Bride, to give away! This book will be released in the UK in September, and sadly I don't have a US release date yet. This is also the book that I wrote 47,000 words of before realising it didn't work and having to start over--a week before my deadline! Can we say stress? Just remembering it kicks my heart rate up. But I'm happy with the result, and it's one of my favourites so far. So! If you'd like a copy, please e-mail me. First three people get a freebie :)
And if you have been trying to e-mail me, and your message bounced back, I apologise. My mailbox was full and I didn't know it! So I've deleted a bunch of messages and everything should be fine now...
