EMMETT People truly suck. I don’t trust them, and I never will. That’s why I spend so much time with my dog, Zelda. She’s loyal, trustworthy, makes me laugh, and keeps me on my toes—-the perfect companion. I have deadlines. I crave peace and quiet. My books don't write themselves. I have no interest in making friends or meeting anyone new. If I need human contact, I'll call my brother. Then Cora Kent, the biggest pain in the ass I’ve ever met, moves into the apartment across the hall. She slams every door, stomps like a Clydesdale, blares her television, forgets to turn off her morning alarm, and never holds the elevator. If I didn’t own this apartment, I’d move. If she wasn’t hot as sin, maybe I’d stop dreaming about her. She loves Zelda. I don’t understand why she hates me. CORA Emmett Nash is an insufferable cat-hating grouch who can’t stop working every one of my last nerves. He may have gorgeous eyes, killer arms, and the cutest pup in New York, but he’s also the last man I want living next door. Thankfully, he’s inside writing his strange little crime novels most of the day and only comes out to walk his dog. The more I see him, the more he grows on me. And I refuse to let that grump find out how much I want him. I don’t know what kind of sick game he’s playing, but I refuse to let him win.

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?
