Last week, we got a look at Tori, the main character in Fierce. This week, I want to introduce you to Max. Max 'The Lobo' Estrada: I'm not going to give too much away here. You can find out about Max in the synopsis (pro-fighter, Colombian), but there's also a nice surprise (at least I think so) that you'll find out only by reading (hint: it involves books!) Here's a teaser of your leading man in Fierce. I'll be honest, these teaser stirs up my emotions, because I know the exact scene it's from, obviously. And, well, it's nice to look at, right? I'll post another Max teaser on Thursday Want to know more about how I picture Max, and my physical inspiration for him? Check out my Pinterest Fierce Board. You can also google Roger Huerta :)
We are less than a month away from the release of FIERCE (8/14/14)! So, in preparation, I thought I'd share with you a little bit about the characters, and some teasers, over the next few weeks. Today, here's a glimpse at your leading lady, Tori "the Amazon" Rhoads: When you first meet Tori, she's an ex-pro MMA fighter. You will have to read to find out why she left her dream of becoming a professional face-puncher behind.. Ever since, she's been trying to live up to her plan: graduate college, career, marry a guy who can't throw a punch to save his life, get old, die, and all the while keep her fists to herself.
She can be rough around the edges, a little explosive, and her exterior isn't exactly soft. After all, she's grown up in a male-dominated world. Not only has she grown up in it, but she's lived it. But, of course, there's always a side of themselves everyone keeps hidden. She may have been called a tomboy a time or two (or maybe more than that), she says things that surprise even the guys, and she's always prepared for a fight. Here's one last quote from her: "...where my dreams were fermented in the bloodstains on the mat, and the ghosts of my nightmares still haunted the cage..." Yes, this blog title needs to be all capitalized BECAUSE I CAN SHARE WITH YOU THE COVER FOR FIERCE. Which makes all of the following ! totally okay !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fierce comes out August 14th, 2014. Ready? READY? And here is the jacket!!!
And here is that quote that's on the cover: Yup, I'm freaking out a bit about having one of my favorite NA authors on the cover!
