Luke’s Redemption
by Anni Fife
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Erotic Romantic Suspense
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Chased by her criminal kingpin father, Katya Dalca runs to New Orleans and straight into the arms of Luke Hunter. Sucked into the carnal world of the French Quarter, she succumbs to Luke’s potent sexuality. He not only steals her breath, he steals her heart and the only leverage she has against her father. She is left with no choice except to pick up the pieces and rebuild her life alone.
Undercover DEA agent Luke Hunter thought his newest assignment—recover a stolen flash drive to gain the trust of the Russian mob—was like any other. But his target brings him to his knees, and after one taste of her intoxicating beauty, he's in too deep. Doing his job means walking away, leaving his heart behind with nothing but a promise to reunite. It's a promise he can't keep.
When Katya's past reaches out and her world unravels, her only hope is the one man she is most vulnerable to—Luke.

Excerpt Two:
I snuggled deeper into the cosy bedding, lazy and heavy-limbed. Shifting slightly, warmth spread through me as the slight stickiness between my legs brought with it delicious memories of the night before. I never dreamed that I could be so wanton, so wildly desperate for one man’s touch.
And boy, did he touch! His potency evident in every aching muscle in my body.
Mmmm. Heat flickered as his musky scent infused my senses.
“Katya.”
I loved his voice. Especially when he said my name, so deep, rich like dark molasses.
“Katya!”
I forced my lids open. And drowned in sensual, male beauty. “Hi,” I purred. And it was a purr. I sounded like a sated cat. Inching a hand out from under the covers, I reached up, hungry to stroke his rough morning stubble.
He reared back as if stung.
What?
My hand hovered midair as he lowered himself to a chair that was pulled up close to the bedside.
How did that chair get there? Was he watching me sleep?
Sluggish, I looked at the window. The curtains were drawn together but didn’t quite meet. Faint light trickled in. It was barely morning. I looked back at Michale and cold started to seep in. Shit. He was fully clothed, he was even wearing his jacket. Only his hair looked out of place. He obviously couldn’t find the cord that I’d enthusiastically pulled from it like a wild woman, and now it hung loose to his shoulders. Bed-hair. Do men get bed-hair?

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Last year, Anni Fife closed the door on a successful career in television, to fulfill her lifelong passion, writing. In the space of one month, she closed her business, packed up her city life and moved to a small seaside village. ‘My writing has always been constrained by client briefs,’ Anni says. ‘Now, I finally have the opportunity to write to the beat of my own heart.’ LUKE’s Redemption is Anni’s debut novel and she hopes you enjoy reading it as much as she loved writing it. Anni loves to spend hours walking on the beach searching for pansy shells, more hours drinking red wine with her gal posse, and the most hours writing steamy romance novels filled with hot alpha men and the sassy intelligent women they can’t live without. She is currently working on her second novel, GRAY’s Promise.

ReplyDeleteDo you write one book at a time or do you have several going at a time?
ReplyDeleteI write one at a time. But I do have several story's developing at once. I just write the thoughts down as they come, and then stow away the story. My characters need to learn a little patience. LOL. I'm nearly finished Gray's Promise, Book 2 in the King Security Series. It's all about Gray, Luke's best friend ... and it's a humdinger. xx
DeleteDo you prefer to write in silence or with noise? Why?
ReplyDeleteI'm one of those that need quiet. I don't even like music playing. I need to hear my character's voices in my head, dialogue is a one of the most important elements of story writing for me. But I do listen to music to change my mood, or inspire me if I'm feeling a little flat. xx
DeleteWhat made you want to become a writer?
ReplyDeleteIt's something I always wanted to do, but never admitted to myself. I also never had belief in myself and thought getting published was a pipe dream. Then life happened and I stopped thinking about it. Twenty years later, I was lucky enough that fate intervened. I was able to turn my life around—and here I am, l living the dream. xx
DeleteOf all the characters you have created, which is your favorite and why?
ReplyDeleteWell, I’ve only written Luke’s Redemption so it has to be Luke Hunter. I think he will always be my favorite because he is my first alpha hero. I created him in the image of Chris Hemsworth’s Thor character, so what is not to like? Besides his panty-melting looks, he is also a man who feels deeply and loves with an all-consuming intensity. The abuse and loss he suffered in his early years, shapes the man he has become. He has a singular focus which makes him a superior sniper in the military, and his protective instincts are through the roof. Luke is potently sexy, and has no problem using this to his benefit, but when he is confronted with Katya’s pain and fears, we discover he has a depth of emotional intelligence that will bring you to tears. Well, it brings me to tears every time I read it!.
DeleteBest, Anni. xx
