What do you do when the only person you’ve ever loved is the person you hate the most? Love doesn’t warm my heart. It doesn’t fill my spirit with joy. It infests me like a plague and try as I might, I can’t find the damn cure. All my life I’ve loved Gia Jeffries—- the head cheerleader, the class president, the prettiest girl in school with a smile and a wave for everyone she meets. I’ve loved her from afar, admired, fantasized, lurked behind every corner, followed her to college and waited for the day she’d look deep into my eyes and know what I’ve known since the second I saw her beautiful face—-we belonged together. But I’m a fool. She’s not mine and she never will be. And for that, I hate her. I hate her for never noticing me. I loathe her for never loving me. She consumes my thoughts, my dreams and inspires every work of art I paint, but every day she looks right past me. Until, one day she doesn’t. How do I let go of all this hate? I’m so close to getting everything I’ve ever wanted. How the hell do I keep from ruining everything?

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?
