Happy Thanksgiving!

Even though we don't celebrate this holiday, i still have some reasons to be grateful and i know it's a custom to say what you are thankful for:
- i'm very grateful for my health and my family's health
- i'm very grateful for the inspiration i had and for writing a book this year
- i'm grateful for wonderful friends, old ones and new ones
- i'm grateful for people who have helped me during this editing and writing process
and last but not least
- i'm grateful for being able to give something back, advice or just encouragement. It means someone trusted me enough to ask for advice and i made someone happy by with my support.

So, i wish you a Happy Thanksgiving Day!


Love,
Mary

Smoke is to be published next week - December 7

Due to some technical difficulties I postponed the release of Smoke until 7th December.

And here is something to forgive-me-for-the-delay-hope-you-ll-love-the-book :)

Excerpt:

SEBASTIAN

I imagined this a thousand times today, Claire waiting for me half naked with a lingering smile on the corner of her luscious mouth and an unspoken invitation hanging in her eyes. This is so much better, she is almost naked, and she is blushing at the sight of me.

“Hi! I dropped by with your contract and the brief. You left it at the office. Am I interrupting something?”

She looked just a bit embarrassed, like I caught her by surprise doing something she shouldn’t. My perverted mind started to drift away, thinking naughty things one could do at home, alone...
So, before my imagination got wild, I concentrated on her being there and in front of me. I wouldn’t want to lose control like a teenage boy, again.

“Hi, I’m a little surprised by the fact that the CEO is willing to run errands.” A mischievous smile appears on her face.

“You’re very observant, but I have to demolish whatever thought is going through that little head of yours. I was just in the neighborhood so I thought, why not bring them to you? Aren’t you going to invite me in?”

“Are you a vampire?” Claire asked.

That made me laugh. Beautiful and funny. I already knew she was smart, she’s the whole package. Too bad I was not a relationship kind of guy.

“Depends, am I allow to bite you if I am?” I teased back.

She nipped her lower lip and then allowed me to enter her apartment without saying a word.

“So I take it you either believe me when I say I’m not a vampire or you hope that I am…”

 

cover reveal Smoke

So this is it, I can finally reveal the cover of Smoke. I hope you all like it:-)

A little something for my lady friends

Seeing as I'm done working on the Smoke book, along with my editor (Eva Natsumi), I thought I could give my lady friends a little gift. I know, it's not much, but it's something to make your evenings nicer.

Check the playlist I've made for Smoke, on my you tube channel and also on the blog.

Each and every one of these wonderful songs have a meaning in Sebastian and Claire's story.

One of them is for their first kiss, another for the first night...but I'll let you guess which is which.

Until then, enjoy the music!

Teaser 3 - Claire and Sebastian's first night together

Smoke is almost ready to be released!

Great news for me and also for the girls waiting, Smoke is almost ready to be released.
The editor I'm working with done a great job and has a few more pages to edit before the book can be released.

We are still working on the cover and that might prove to be a bit difficult, because I want it to be perfect.

I'll release a few teasers before publishing the book so, if you have any questions about Claire or Sebastian, feel free to ask away :)

Thank you and check the goodreads page and the facebook page for more info.
