Hi everybody! To celebrate the release of The Right Kind of Wrong (Rags and Riches Series #3) you can get Business and Pleasure for just $0.99 for
the entire month of August!
Can mixing business and pleasure ever result in
a happy ending?
When sexy, rich Lawrence Russo asks Mia to come
and work for him in Italy for two weeks, she jumps at the chance. After all, it
beats pole dancing, and the salary he offers her is practically obscene.
A relationship quickly begins to develop between
the two, but Mia can't help but wonder if Lawrence's feelings for her are
genuine or if he feels he's just paying for a service.
Even if their relationship is strong enough to
survive her insecurities, what will happen when somebody from her past shows up
and threatens to reveal her deepest, darkest secret?

Excerpt:
Lucy looked around nervously. "What's
wrong?" she asked.
"I…don't know," Mia admitted. Perhaps
she was just being paranoid.
"Mia." She heard a familiar drawl
coming from the shadows. Her heart raced in anticipation as she turned to see
the speaker. He walked out of the shadows and toward them like a jaguar
stalking his prey, but Mia didn't feel intimidated, only excited by his
presence.
"You shouldn't go sneaking around in the
darkness. You could give a girl a fright." Mia laughed.
"I could leave, if that would please
you," he purred. She loved the way he emphasized please. He gave no
indication that he was going to leave. Mia was glad.
"Er, maybe I'll just go wait around the
corner," Lucy said awkwardly. Mia nodded to acknowledge her, feeling a
little guilty, because she had actually forgotten Lucy was still there.
"So, what are you doing here?" Mia
tried to seem nonchalant, despite the fact that her body was having some kind
of chemical reaction to his presence.
As if from nowhere, the handsome man produced
the bottle of champagne he had purchased earlier that night. "I do believe
we have plans to share this." He took a step closer to her.
"Oh. I would, it's just we aren't supposed
to socialize with the clients outside of the club," Mia said teasingly,
although it was technically true.
"Tell me, Mia, do you always do what you're
supposed to do?" It seemed as though he had expected her reaction.
"No, I guess not."
"I've been watching you, Mia."
"I've noticed." She took a step in his
direction and looked challengingly into his dark eyes. "So, do you like
what you see?"
They were close enough to touch, and Mia's every
nerve was tingling, hoping to feel his fingers on her skin. He swayed forward
and, for a moment, she thought he was going to kiss her, but he leaned toward
her ear instead. "I have a business proposition for you," he
breathed, sending a shiver through her body before he pulled away from her.
It took Mia a moment to compose herself, and his
eyes sparkled with amusement, no doubt he was enjoying her confusion.
"Business…a business proposition?" Mia attempted to sound as casual
as she possibly could.
"I'm returning to my home in Tuscany tomorrow,"
he announced.
Mia felt her heart sink, but was determined not
to let it show. "Oh, it must be beautiful in Italy this time of year. But
what does that have to do with me?"
"I was hoping you would accompany me."

I have always believed that the best stories are
the ones that you can't put down, the ones that transport you to a different place
and make you believe in the characters. This is exactly why I write… I have
always loved the escapism that reading and writing provides, and there is
nothing more exciting than imagining your own set of characters, and then
letting them practically write the story for you. Writing has always been a
dream of mine, and I'm lucky to have the kind of people around me that have
always nurtured and encouraged my passion.
I live a cozy little life in Wales, and when I'm
not writing I'm taking care of my young family, and studying for a degree in
Classical Studies. I love traveling to new places, meeting new people, and
experiencing new things…it's all great inspiration for my books!
