Zelda Haverty has just suffered a very public humiliation at the hands of her gold-digging ex-fiancé. Alone and heartbroken, she thinks she needs time to grieve and self-reflect. But her bossy big sister insists she needs a distraction. Preferably an experienced older man who can sweep her off her feet, dust off all those virginal cobwebs, oil those squeaky wheels and then send her on her way. She refuses to consider such nonsense. Until she meets silver fox, Carlo Novello. Carlo is just the kind of man who can perform a lusty act of kindness. He’s kind, sexy, honest, full of compliments, and doesn’t believe in relationships. He doesn’t believe in love. It’s a win- win. For once, Zelda plays by her own rules and takes what she needs. Gets what she wants. And emerges a new woman with a ravenous new libido she’d like to take for stroll. Too bad Carlo can’t stick to the plan. With his heart set on Zelda, the only stroll she’s taking is that short walk down the aisle.

Matilda is a Texas girl in love with a Philly boy who loves to write dirty books about two people who trip into love and fumble their way into a Filthy, Funny, Happily Ever After. I live in Austin, with my husband, two crazy Chihuahuas and an even crazier cat. And I spend most of my day writing dirty romance books about older men who fall in love with younger women and make fools of themselves trying to win their hearts. If you love Dark Romance, you’ve come to the wrong place. I don’t like dark heroes. I like my hero to be successful, sweet, suave, sophisticated and kind—- and then I want him to lose all his composure and game when he meets the heroine. I want him to turn into a bumbling idiot when he spots the girl of his dreams and revert to a teenage boy in a man’s body trying to win her. I like my heroines to be witty, intelligent, and unshakeable—-who could do just as well without a man—until the hero convinces her otherwise. I write A LOT OF AGE GAP—because I LOVE AGE GAP ROMANCE. I’ve got no other excuse for it. No matter what kind of story it is, my ladies are ADORED, and my endings are always Happily EVER AFTER, not HFN. Want a free Ebook?
