Was Made for You always intended to be a sequel?

No!  Actually, when I started writing Belong to You I hadn’t even thought about it being two books.    But about half way through writing it, I realized that telling Jack and Syd’s story was going to need to be more than one book.  More than half of the first book takes place during the week they meet in Hawaii.  It’s the ultimate fantasy vacation.  Then the second half throws them back into reality when they say goodbye in paradise and return home.   At the end of Belong to You Syd gets the opportunity of a lifetime to go on a European singing tour with her BFF Sienna.  So I thought it was a natural break to stop book one before Jack & Syd have to learn to deal with a long distance relationship.

Excerpt:

Jack shifted, easing my back onto the bed, and lifted his body over me, his forearms on either side of my head, absorbing the weight of his body.  The room was dark, but my eyes had adjusted and I could see the light in his eyes above me.  “Do you, Syd?”  He pushed a lock of my hair behind my ear as he spoke tenderly.

“I think I do.  You don’t want men looking at me.  I get it.   You don’t even notice the way that women look at you when you walk by.  I get the urge to smack them when I see them taking more than a peek.  So I can’t imagine that I would be happy if you were on a thirty foot display, perhaps with these sinful abs showing.”  I rubbed my handed across his hard abdominal muscles.

Jack was quiet for a moment before he spoke.  “It’s more than that, Syd.  Yes, the thought of men looking at your beautiful face and body up there makes me want to stay outside the coliseum and hurt every man that takes more than a friendly look, but it’s not just that.”

Jack’s eyes searched mine, looking for something before he continued.  “You’re mine Syd.  And I don’t want to share.  Not a picture, not a smile, not a touch.   All of it is mine.  Only mine.  You were made for me.  That sexy mouth belongs to only me.  I wake up every morning craving that body that wiggles beneath me.  That body that surrenders as soon as it’s filled with me.  It’s mine and I need it so bad it physically hurts when I reach over on the bed and find your warm body isn’t there.  So, yeah, I’m not happy about the picture. But it’s the rest of it that’s killing me.”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:

I was born and raised in New York. I’ve been told more than once that I have a New York accent. It is pronounced cawfee, not coffee, right? I am one of six children, and come from a happy, albeit dysfunctional, family of “steps, halves, ours, theirs and his” children. I have three children, two girls and a boy. My son is the oldest and is a godsend. The girls, well, they are tweens and make me drink too much wine on occasion.

I am a boring attorney by day, and an exciting smut author by night! I actually consider myself a romance author, but my books definitely have steam in them, so I guess I am technically a romance-erotica author. I am also a HUGE reader and love Sylvia Day, Kristen Ashely, and EL James.

After years of thinking about writing my own book, I finally took the leap in 2012. I published my first book, First Thing I See, in January 2013, and was thrilled at the overwhelming success! Belong to You was published on April 4, 2013, and climbed its way to number 9 in the Amazon Erotica Best Seller’s list in its first five days! The sequel to Belong to You is due out on July 1st, 2013.
