Her Keeper

Part 1

2012

Alternate cover for this ASIN can be found here The feud between Rick Andrews and Sara Michaels is legendary and no one ever wants to stand in the line of fire when they go at it. Rick can’t deny the chemistry between him and Sara. Hell, just the thought of her makes him hard. Her intelligence and her spirit intrigue him and, for some unfathomable reason, the need to protect her consumes much of his waking hours and a few of his dreams as well. But she’s too high maintenance. Especially as she holds a long time grudge and knows just how to push his buttons. No way does he want an argument with his woman every time he turns around, no matter how beautiful her face and adorable her ass. Sara Michaels has never forgiven Rick Andrews for humiliating her during her freshman week in college. Now eight years later, their ongoing feud is reaching combustion level, in no small part because of the throbbing his angry, alpha male hotness creates between her thighs. If only he wouldn’t frame his advice in ‘do as I say’ commands, she might be inclined to listen now and then. His dominant attitude just makes her go for the knee-jerk response every time. Only, now Sara has crossed the line and Rick is determined to use the power her transgression grants him to lay down the law in a way she can't escape. This the first part in a series that will unfold over multiple volumes ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 words each. Her Keeper is an erotic romance with explicit sexual content with elements of BDSM. It has a hot cop (two actually), sexy frisking, spanking, cuffing, a crazy, hot proposition yet to come and two people who are stubbornly in love. This is the first instalment and true to a series stops at an interesting moment. The story is 19,000 words and the rest of the book has descriptions and excerpts from other works. Enjoy!

As each chapter unfolds the cast of characters keeps you on the edge of your seat, waiting for the curtain to rise. Ms. Karol has created characters that will keep you enthralled, entertained, and begging for more.

Writing is my great love. I finally made time to devote to it in 2013 and self-published my debut novel, Chances and Choices. Since then I have gone on to write my best-selling ongoing e-serials Her Keeper and Intimate Knowledge, as well as HIS By Design, the erotic version of Chances & Choices. In 2015, I published the first book in my Hope Junction Series, The Rancher’s Woman, with Stormy Night Publications. I am a Canadian, currently living in England. As well as my writing, I am an international teacher. I have worked in many different countries where I have had the opportunity to participate in their culture and make wonderful friends. Before teaching, I was a photographer in the Canadian Air Force. In those days women were scarce in the military and we were lucky to have our pick of so many alpha men. I married one of them and we were blessed with our beautiful daughter. As a mother and a (very, very young) grandmother, I treasure time with my family. I write stories I love to read. My students will tell you I am cynical but the fact is - scratch a cynic and you find a romantic underneath! So I really am a romantic at heart and write and devour romance of any kind. Naturally I write romantic love stories. I love strong yet nice guy, tender heroes – the bad boy has never really grabbed me – well okay maybe once or twice but I never let him hold on for that long! I have been lucky to teach media and film for years and l am a big fan of romantic comedy, as well as crime and supernatural films and television. I particularly love the ones with a great enduring love story mixed with intrigue where they are friends as well - like Bones and Vampire Diaries. My love stories are a combination of these - enduring friendships and feuds, romance, alpha males, strong females, bad boys and girls we love to hate, along with cast of characters and a dollop of tongue in cheek humor here and there. My other characters will often have their own love stories in their series while still following the original couples. I love magazines, fashion and the world of film and television so that is where the action is set in my Choices Series. Hot cops are a turn on and thrillers intrigue me so I explore these in my Detectives & Desires Series. I also spent a number of years in the Canadian Rockies and the ranchlands of Alberta and that has inspired my Hope Junction Series with Stormy Night Publications. It is set in a small town in the Wyoming Rockies. I also have a series of stand-alone short stories planned around The Raffertys - a family with hot alpha males and feisty women who we first met in Intimate Knowledge and Her Keeper. Look out for the first in the series, Her Forbidden Spring. In addition to Her Forbidden Spring, I’m working on the next episodes in my e-serials as well as the next book in the Hope Junction Series.
