Not About Me For Once!

Oh my gosh, you guys, this is going to be a short one. Summer colds suck. Have you heard that one before? If you've been to this blog, then, yes, you have. I'm right in the middle of one and I have to get rid of it before tomorrow night for REASONS, so I'm planning on an early night loaded with AlkaSeltzer Nighttime whenever I can guzzle it down.

The good part of all this is that I have something to share, something that's not about me for once! We'll get back to that next week (mainly because since I've been sick this week, I've done zilch on the writing front, but lots on the Buffy front). I'm not entirely sure if, during my many gushing posts I included any books by Marita Hansen. If I have not, shame on me! She's awesome. Better than awesome. Each time she comes out with a book, I engulf it in one sitting. Seriously. Her books keep me up to all nights. Of course, I should mention that some of her books are not safe for young eyes, or even older eyes that don't appreciate a few hot scenes here or there. But rejoice, my friends, because she's coming out with a book that could appeal to everyone!

Back in October, Ms. Hansen had this awesomely amazing idea to write stories like we watch television: in episodes. My Master's Nightmare is steamy and sexy and hot and so, so dangerous. I was late to the party, so I was able to buy the first three episodes and devour them in one sitting. But that meant I had to wait until the next one came out, and that was no fun, trust me. But now! She's moving onto Ricardo, a sort of spin-off from those books, but (rejoice again!) if you haven't read any of My Master's Nightmare, don't worry! You can still read Ricardo. And, boy, do you want to...

The Santini brothers belong to one of the most powerful mafia families on their island. This is Ricardo Santini's story, the oldest of the brothers who has lost his lover to the mafia war that is plaguing his land. Due to his grief, he unleashes his violent nature upon anyone who dares cross him, his need to punish his enemies all encompassing. But what he doesn't count on is Bianca D'Angelo walking back into his life, the only other woman he has ever loved. Bianca had once loved Ricardo, but left him due to his violent nature. After an abusive marriage to another man, she vows off all relationships, just wanting to be left alone. But when she accidentally kills one of the most powerful men on the island, she is forced to stay with the Santini brothers for her own protection. Upon seeing Ricardo again, she attempts to deny her feelings for him, terrified of falling into another violent relationship. But Ricardo isn't one to be denied a second time, Bianca not knowing what hit her. (WARNING: Unlike RICARDO, My Masters' Nightmare is about the D'Angelo family, who are human traffickers. It has graphic non consent and dub consent scenes. If this isn't for you, you should wait for RICARDO (The Santini Brothers #1).

Is that not enough for you? Then how about the cover...

She always has the best covers, I swear.

Well, I guess that's it for me. Now I'm going to go die. Thank you and goodnight!
