Crashed by M.K. Chester

When Ella Leary crashes the birthday party of publishing mogul Levi Northrup, she hopes to learn something sordid to use in her fight against him. She believes he’s stolen the magazine her father started and blames him for her father’s death. She never expects him to chase her down the street or be so vulnerable that she loses her edge and falls into bed with him. Levi is irate when he learns Ella’s true identity and gives her only a single issue of her precious magazine while he unravels his father’s final, very personal, business deal. Long-held secrets will force them to either part ways or work together in and out of the office.

What inspired you to write your book?

I was intrigued by the idea that a woman could fall in love with someone she was supposed to hate, that she could have the story so wrong that in the end, she had to come to terms with her mistake and accept a man who could legitimately have pushed her aside but chose to help her instead because he had his own demons to wrestle with.

Here is a short sample from the book:

From her post beside the mahogany staircase, Ella noted he held a drink in one hand and a cigar in the other but never truly partook of either one. Sober, friendly, and beyond normal.

The entire upscale scene suffocated her. By the look of things, she’d crashed a gathering for the Board of Directors of Northrup Publishing rather than a party for the heir to their throne. Ella had never seen more bottles of scotch in her life and she didn’t care to discern between domestic and Cuban cigars, even though she very well could.

As panic washed over her, her palms began to sweat, her telltale signal things had gone sideways. She should abort mission. Immediately. Being here would bring nothing but trouble and she already had plenty of that. This man didn’t have loose ends and bad habits, not the kind she’d assumed, anyway.

Yet one last look at Levi Northrup and she gravitated toward him, pulled in by his easy manner and subtle charm. Just like everyone else.

His gaze netted her again and he tilted his head to examine her, like some complex arithmetic problem. She held still under his calculating scrutiny but panicked when he set down his drink, extinguished his burned-down cigar and meandered through the crowd in her general direction.

Ella’s heart thumped as she searched for something to do, someone to strike up a quick conversation with. God, she’d been naïve to assume she’d never be noticed, especially by the prince of the palace.

Of course he knew every face in this enormous crowd. She would, in his place.

    Tristan uses his vast wealth and connections to correct a gross miscarriage of justice, while Keisha makes herself utterly vulnerable to Tristan and fears he has chosen to exercise his own exit strategy.

    …Nothing Gained!

    Will this be the end of the indecent arrangement that became a fairy tale? Or will Keisha and Tristan reveal the trauma from their pasts so they may heal and completely embrace their relationship?

    The Advent of Lena, a Tale of Beauty and the Beast by Neil M Campbell

    0 out of 5

    Chloe Lambert is used to men looking at her twice but for all the wrong reasons – they cannot believe how ugly she is. She has no reason to think Park Delafield, of the perfect profile and cheek bones to die for, is any different when he insults her in a pub. But all is not as it seems, turns out he’s looking for salvation and has decided she’s the one. Only trouble is, Chloe’s not so sure.

    When a stranger in a bar loudly comments on her appearance, Chloe Lambert can only assume that the remark which cut her to the bone was for him simply a casual aside. Park Delafield, however, at once struck down for his savagery by a friend of Chloe’s, is visited in his humiliation by the insight that only the love of the woman he has offended can redeem the despicable individual he has become. He sets out to win Chloe but she, bewildered by his attentions and repelled by his egotism, wants no part in his quest. Until his tireless persistence, combined with her own curiosity about his true personality and motives, soften her distrust of his sincerity. Warily she allows him into her life, thus seeding hurricanes of self-discovery, reckless commitment, and searing betrayal through which all involved journey toward disaster . . . or liberation and redemption.
