Strong characterization, interesting and intriguing characters and sexual escapades that will shock, tempt and leave you with many what the hell did I just read moments. What a great, creative and intriguing story. Holy Hell What A Plot Twist! Delicious, decadent, sultry and seductive, Lucia Franco had me and used my mind and emotions as she saw fit. Trust was thrown out the window and every character became suspect. Gone were the books waiting to be read … I was dying to know the plot twist. That’s all it took and the blogger had me hook, line and sinker. ![]() It was the cover that first caught my attention, though it was a blogger’s words that had me buying the book even though I had to plenty to read.

And that’s mostly where Salsa Nocturna came from-the short stories. And there were some edits to do, so it took a while. That’s how they found it-I submitted it in the slush pile. I actually submitted it to Scholastic, way back when I wrote it. Shadowshaper was the first book I wrote, but it was before I had an agent. What inspired you to start writing YA?Īctually, I started with YA, it just took longer to get published.

But he does say that if there is happiness it should be grand. ![]() If you travel to some poor neighbourhood you sometimes think they have such a great simple life, but it's because we don't see the pain. I know people tend to romanticise the poor. But because those who suffer are silent about it. He preaches to them about people who are blind to suffering, not because suffering don't exist. But in this case free from comfort, rather than constraining uncomfort as in the previous story. But as Chekhov's notes, there's a selfishness to that. A part of me just wants to go hide on some island away from civilization. Instead we should have the whole world to live in.
