I just wanted to remind you that Soul Mates, the ending of Tempting Fate and The Deception, will be available on Monday via Bookfunnel. All three parts will be put together to form one long story, which will be titled, Soul Mates. I know what I’m doing is unorthodox. And I’ve given it a lot of thought. I think I explained in a previous post what happened. I attended a conference and did some research romance reading to learn readers’ expectations. I certainly had a lot of fun writing what was initially Serendipity and The Ruse. Full disclosure, the stories flopped in the marketplace. And it wasn’t because of visibility. Serendipity/Tempting Fate had a lot of eyes on it. But the real romance meet-cute didn’t occur until The Ruse, which became The Deception. Book one was mostly backstory. And the thing is, I knew better than to write a book full of backstory! It was an amateurish thing to do. But if I take a beat and remember how stressful last year was, then I give myself a pass for writing what I wrote. The story is still good though. It’s just long. I also think the romance aspect isn’t strong enough. Plus, the version of Soul Mates I submitted to the editor, is not the story I want to tell. I threw everything, including the kitchen sink at that story. You’ll see what I mean. But, I don’t consider my efforts a wash.  The original story is helping me write a better newer story. I know who the characters are already. Also, I get to focus on the romance and use backstory in the right way. And, in a sense, you already know the backstory, well, sort of. A lot of what occurred in the original, won’t happen in the redux version. For instance, Paisley won’t go to that party because in the redux that never happend. But the college encounter with Hercules did occur. It’ll be written differently though. I’ll be using backstory to strengthen immediate intimacy. Don’t worry, you’ll see what I mean. Oh, and she’s not going to infiltrate his company. She actually has a job at GIT. She’s the Public Relations director. So we’ll see a lot of her and Max’s sibling relationship in real-time. You’ll also see more of the feud play out between the brothers. And there’s no mystery of why the feud exists. I won’t reveal it now though. 😏 So, to not be longwinded, if you want to know when Soul Mates is available, look out for my Monday post, which will contain the Book Funnel link. There are a lot of pirates out there looking to steal content, so I want to make sure my ducks are in a row before I make it available. People are so disturbed. Why would you steal people’s long, hard works of art? Anyway, I’ll send the link on Monday in the morning.  Toodles and enjoy your Saturday! Much Love, Z
