Asa: Jade Kanoska is a puzzle I want to figure out. Not only because she’s beautiful, smart, and sharp-tongued, but because she’s hiding something, and I want to know what it is. The problem is, the more time I spend with my new temporary assistant, the more I’m seeing her in an unprofessional light, and the more I realize I want her permanently. Only not as my assistant. Now I just need to figure out what she’s hiding and show her why she shouldn’t resist me. But something tells me that will be easier said than done. Good thing I love a challenge. Jade: I thought my life would be different by now, but I guess it’s not in the cards yet. Instead, I’m still living at home with my father, and working to pay off a debt that my brother owes. Now, to add to it, I’ve been asked to work with Asa Lincoln temporarily until he finds a new assistant. I’d be fine if he didn’t constantly get under my skin and call me ridiculous nicknames like Sunshine. Or make comments about his ass. It’s okay though, I know I can do it. It’s only temporary. Except, I’m not as careful about hiding that something is wrong, and Asa is determined to figure it out. But while I’m trying to keep him in the dark, he’s getting under my skin in a way that is far from professional. I just need to resist his charming smile, and the way he makes me want things I can’t have. It shouldn’t be too hard right?

I live in New Brunswick, Canada with my husband and our two dogs, Remi and Sako (pronounced Say-co). When I’m not writing, I’m playing fetch with the dogs, talking to my parents for endless amounts of hours, annoying the crap out of my husband, or just enjoying life with my friends. Writing has been a part of my life since I was about 12. I started out just writing short stories or silly knock-offs of my favorite shows or movies. Soon, though, I realized just how much I loved to write. How often my mind would wander and think of characters and where they could go. They became real to me, and I would start to write. I used to fill up notebooks and pads of paper when I got an idea. It would be an obsession, almost, to get on paper. Then, when I was old enough to have a computer, I started there. Now, I’m 28 years old and I finally hit that button. The one that I’ve thought about it over and over again for the past 16 years. There is no greater joy, or fear, at realizing you’ve just accomplished something that you’ve wanted to do for so very long. That is my greatest accomplishment and I look forward to hitting that button on many more.
