Tuesday Teaser: Max

7/29/2014

0 Comments

 
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

Tori Tuesday- Fierce Teaser

7/22/2014

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..."

Thanks to Forward Authority for the design and K. Keeton Designs for the photography!

And here is that quote that's on the cover:
 "A unique twist on the fighter trope-- FIERCE is a compelling, original read with my favorite kind of heroine (a kick-ass one)." - New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Cora Carmack

Yup, I'm freaking out a bit about having one of my favorite NA authors on the cover!


Category: New Adult
Genre: Sports Contemporary Romance (author's note: the romance is not the entire plot!)
Publication Date: August 14th, 2014

Tori's MMA career was taking off, until she beat the wrong man. Her training partner, nursing a bruised ego, snapped—shattering her trust and confidence.

Three years later, Tori’s keeping her fists to herself as she struggles to put herself through college. But when a group of gangbangers hassle her at work, old habits kick in and her fists fly. Max Estrada, a frequent diner customer, steps in and gets them out of hot water, but Tori is still fired... days before tuition is due.

With no other option, she’s forced to take a desk job at her old pounding grounds, where her demons still haunt the cage and the temptation to go glove-to-glove with familiar pro-fighter, Max Estrada, is too much. The sexy Colombian draws her back into the world of MMA and revives her dreams of becoming a professional face-puncher—until Will, her old partner and current Middleweight Champion, struts back into the gym. The secret they share is an unexpected liability to his career, and he's determined to keep her silent.

With her life on the ropes, Tori will have to face the past for a shot at winning back her future, or carry the weight of a loss even greater than before.
