In anticipation of my first character interview with the lovely Victoria Sutter, I will cover some of her likes and you’ll find out some of her dislikes during her interview. PastimesVictoria's guilty pleasure would definitely be reality TV. Down to the running mascara on a tear-soaked face and catfights, she just can't tear herself away from the endless drama. When she isn't watching television, or better yet, letting the television watch her, Victoria loves to dabble in some of the tamer entertainment in life. Talk radio, reading, and gardening are some of the main points that she loves to hit outside of working and maintaining her home.

Until next time...thank you from Lilly Mac...Victoria Sutter is the heroine/main character of Wronged Desires, book one of The Never Throw Stones Series, and supporting character of Entangled Desires, book 2. In anticipation of my first character interview with the lovely Victoria Sutter, I will cover some of her likes and you’ll find out some of her dislikes during her interview that will release this weekend. FashionVictoria's business attire involves clean lines and classy looks. She loves to mix contemporary and vintage styles to keep her admirers always guessing. Yet, when in a professional environment, whether at the office or at a business gala, she knows how to keep everything business. When it comes to casual wear, jeans and blouse. Nothing special or flashy. Comfort is key. Shoes...shoes...and...more shoes!! Victoria loves wearing funky and colorful shoes. She takes all of her fashion risks when it comes to footwear. Once a tomboy who wore only Vans and Keds, she stepped outside of her comfort zone when she became a woman. Heels and boots, spikes and colors take her to her happy place.

Until next time...thank you from Lilly Mac...We first meet Kemington and Victoria Sutter in Wronged Desires, Book 1 of the Never Throw Stones Series. In that book the couple was living in a world apart while trying to find their back to normalcy and each other. Once their marriage was mended, the Sutters have been going on stronger than ever. They even brought a new addition into the picture, but let's first discuss their home. Victoria once thought this home to be a monstrosity. I would like to believe it was due to the emptiness of the home. The void of love and happiness. To make this a home and not just a house to sleep in, Victoria needed a family. Her family. As you can see in the above picture, it is a pretty large estate inside of a gated enclosure. The 12,000 square foot house boasts of two large guest bedrooms, an amazing master suit, a nursery, eat-in kitchen, living room, study, media room, five bathrooms plus much more which all sits on six acres of land. Even though Southlake, Texas is very low in crime, the grounds are secured with 24-hour security. There is also a crew of landscapers and one bi-weekly maid used for the upkeep of the property. In this kitchen, the chef of the family, Kemington, whips up all of his signature dishes on the upscale, stainless-steel range while entertaining either his lovely wife, Victoria, or guests at the beautiful island that doubles as a bar. The dining room includes a fireplace and a glass dining table that sits fourteen people during the holidays and special events. Plus the chandelier adds a nice touch. The living room is solely utilized for entertainment purposes only. Victoria has mentioned for years that she wants to redecorate to something more contemporary, yet she hasn't found the time. Another haven for Kem and Vic is their luxurious bedroom. Victoria loves to have a bunch of pillows on her bed and lots of unique artwork. And now for the special part of our tour - Kemington Jr.'s room. This nursery was designed by one of the top North Texas interior decorators. The Sutters wanted all neutral colors when it came to their son. They also wanted enough seating to allow family and friends to feel comfortable in the room since Victoria and Kemington would spend most of their time in there. Victoria had a toddler play yard added onto the side of the home just for the enjoyment of her new son and his friends. She had the ground carefully padded to prevent any injuries and the perimeter was fenced to keep Kemington Jr and guests away from the hazards that are still present on the estate grounds. Now that Victoria has her family back together again. Her house is truly a home and now Victoria can enjoy every inch.

Until next time...For those of my loyal fans who have enjoyed all of my captivating literary pieces from book one to book eight, I would like to say thank you for being true fans. For those newcomers to this mailing list, I want to say welcome and thank you for taking the time out to read at least one of my books and enjoy it enough to join the ranks of Lilly Macsters. I took about a two – three month hiatus to get my personal life together. It truly was a trying time for me when it came to writing, because it was the first time that I found myself blocked. Well, I wouldn’t really call it blocked, it was stress from my outside world clouding the richness of the stories in my fantasy world(s). …Any who… I am back with a bang. Many of you, new and old, have graced this list because of the popularity of a particular second-chance, interracial romance between a husband and wife who let the world come between their love. Wronged Desires has been a huge success for me being that it graced the Amazon bestseller lists/rankings for nearly two months. The book, six plus months later, still remains in the top 100k for overall books on Amazon. It ranked in Japan, France, Australia, and Canada to name a few and there’s always room for more. With that being said…let’s give me a round of applause for pleasing those patiently waiting. Book two of the Never Throw Stones Series has been completed and accepted by Amira Press to be published. Book 2, titled Entangled Desires, is simply the story of Sandra Santiago and Manuel Domingo after the baby, after the stress, after the incarceration of Carlos Santiago. I had a lot of soul searching to do when it came to writing this piece. A lot of people ended up not liking the character of Sandra for various reasons after book one, and I always feel that there are two sides to a story. This is her story. This is her unveiling of why Sandra is the way she is and why the men who love her…love her. I am planning on having an extensive promotional campaign for this release that covers at least a two month span. A few giveaways may be mixed in and possibly a Facebook event. You will get reintroduced to the Wronged Desires crew all over again, but this campaign will definitely tap into some subjects you will see in Entangled Desires. As a matter of fact, this is the first posting of my promotion. This is a short piece that will serve as a refresher and a bridge between Wronged Desires and Entangled Desires. Here is Carlos’ letter… Carlos entered his cell and cringed when he heard the closing of the door behind him. Even though he had been incarcerated for nearly a year with only a few more to go, the sound of the metal door closing over the chain of brackets embedded in the floor grated on his nerves like nails to a chalkboard. He was counting down the days where he would be free of the stink hole that was the county jail. Thankfully his family had enough good standing that he was able to acquire a flashy lawyer and get his sentence greatly reduced. It panged his conscience to think of the horrible things he did to Sandra over the years and to have the years of anguish bleed out onto Victoria was downright unacceptable. Carlos had to admit to himself, if he had to do several years to make up for that crime alone, he would’ve grinned and beared it.
He scowled at the thought that he treated his wife like she was a mere puppet. Some fancy Barbie Doll for him to flounce around his family and friends when he was ready to play with his trophy. However, the things he did while he was away were unforgivable. How dare he sit and judge her for having a night of miscalculated judgment that resulted in the creation of a life. He was never around. He never treated her like he should have. He took her for more than granted. Carlos knew that no matter what he did to Sandra, the guilt of their family values and traditions would dictate that she would never leave him and he used that as leverage for his coldness. “Mi amor Sandy…tiene un nino – a baby boy,” he whispered to himself. He had to be careful with his utterances. There were five other men in his pod and they were already leery of him and his self-discussions. Talking to himself was something that Carlos normally did when he was on the road so it was natural to do it from time to time especially in an environment where all he had was time. Carlos felt the sting of tears to the creases of his eyes when he thought of Sandra holding a fat baby. He always wanted to give her a son but due to powers higher than his own might, he was never able to accomplish it. With a baby, their life would’ve been perfect he thought. She would’ve been approving of him – the man of her household. Yet he continually let her down even in areas that she was still in the dark about. To be truthful, Carlos wasn’t a saint. What Sandra had done was only a blimp in the world of lies and deceit that he created with her. To think that she loved and believed him while he was away from home on monthly campaigns was awing. Her loyalty was unwavering. He had an unhealthy addiction for the seedy underbelly of trucking. Lot lizards, prostitutes, alcohol, and drugs. Over the years he had experienced them all. Thanks to being a lifetime member of the family business, Carlos learned early how to occupy oneself while on the road. He remembered looking up to his father. The man was like a king and Carlos wanted to be just like him. His family lived in a huge estate in South Fort Worth, Texas and his mother never worked a day in her life. His father alone provided for their comfortable lifestyle. To own a productive trucking and shipping company was to live the good life and he was next in line to rule the empire. Carlos sat on his metal bunk and reclined back on the thin mattress sitting on a bed of creaky springs. He fingered the curled edges of the only picture of Sandra that he held in his wallet. It was the day that he got his first truck with a customized deluxe cab and tractor trailer. They were both so excited and talked of traveling the US together while he was on assignment. Later on that night, his father pulled him to the side stating that it would be in his best interest if Sandra manned the home-front while he experienced life on the road…alone. Thoughts of his first ride with his father plagued and damn near haunted him. He was seven and his mother had fought and argued against him going on the road, but she finally gave in. He didn’t understand the apprehension being that he was only a child. It was going to be a long trip from Texas to upstate New York, but he was prepared for the excitement along the way. His father took him to all types of restaurants along the way. From fast-food joints like McDonalds to hole-in-the-wall steak houses. All the grimy food that his mother would never consent to him eating, yet they were on “the road” and the “the road” had a different set of rules according to his father. He remembered about eighteen hours into the trip, his father told him to start preparing for bed. Carlos was excited because his father’s cab had a queen-sized bed, a shower, and a TV with a satellite connection. They parked at a large rest stop – the kind with a store, restaurant, showers, and park area that was twenty-four hours a day. Carlos quickly brushed his teeth and put on his favorite pajamas and nestled in for the night. He thought that he and his dad would share the bed, but his father said that he was going to do a little work and chat with some of his trucking buddies before coming to bed. Carlos kind of shrugged it off and nestled in for some rest. There was a problem, the excitement of being on an adventure with his father kept him restless, so he turned on a late-night cartoon to occupy himself. That didn’t work. He figured he might as well sit upfront with his dad and take in the nightlife. Sure his mother would be upset that he stayed up past his bedtime, but he was on “the road” with his dad. After sliding into his slippers, he shuffled to the cab door but he heard muffles like someone was talking. He quickly deduced that his father was talking to one of his buddies, so he decided against joined him in the front. As he turned to head back to bed, he heard a high-pitched sound of laughter. It was a woman visiting with his dad. As far as Carlos’ juvenile mind could reason, most truckers were men and not women. His curiosity got the better of him and he slowly inched to the door and slid it open. From his vantage point, all he could make out was his father’s flannel shirt and her blond tendrils strewn all over her head. He could smell her perfume—pungent flowers of the valley that wafted dangerously up his nose. Strong and loud. Her hand was at his shoulder and Carlos found that to be odd. His father was a tight, stonelike man that wasn’t one for affection of any kind. As far as he could remember, he had never kissed his mother publicly or even hugged her. He just wasn’t the type, yet this woman was caressing his shoulder like they were old friends. While Carlos pondered over the gesture, his jaw dropped when he saw his father reciprocate by placing his arm around her shoulders. Her tawdry, greasy yellow strands ran over the sleeve of his shirt and back down her back. Then his father ran his hand through her stringy hair and pushed her head to his lap—out of Carlos’ sight. In a fright, Carlos slammed the cab door and ran back to bed. His father shouted his name, beckoning to him, yet he didn’t come check on him until at least fifteen minutes later. He was physically trembling trying to figure out what his father was doing with the nasty woman. Why was he touching on her? Laughing with her. What were they doing? Then his father entered the cab and called out for him to sit up and pay attention. No matter what, Carlos wouldn’t defy his father so he complied. That night, he got his first orientation in the rules of “the road”. As the years went on, Carlos took more trips with his father—experiencing and learning the lifestyle firsthand. He scoffed to think, Sandra was supposed to be his first and only. The hooker that his father bought for him on his eighteenth birthday trumped that notion. Carlos rolled over toward the wall and curled his body into a ball. The other inmates in his pod were chattering amongst themselves while he was in a thick, thunderous storm of his life. He reached under his pillow and pulled out the pen and pad that he had been attempting to fill for months. It was time to bare his soul and tell his wife the truth. However before he could pen that letter to his one and only love, he had to tie up a loose end that was frayed and hanging in another end of his life. Dear Arely Santiago, Hey babe, this is Carlos. I know I haven’t been home lately, but there’s something I have to tell you… Author: Jennifer Raygoza Title: The Guardians III: Blood Vengeance Series: The Guardians Genre: Romantic Dark Fantasy Release Date: 9-16-14 Publishing House: Vamptasy About me:

Sémya Slotin had spent the last three years living in London with her best friend Polliannah Koch staying away from solving cases. After Hawaii, she was taking a break from puzzles, cases and mysteries that could potentially get her killed. Instead, she had been doing her second and third favorite things, drinking and selling expensive vintage wines and having earth-shattering sex with the mysterious, sexy, beautiful but ever so secretive Josh Heinz. Life in London was good....until her funds ran out. Too much wine drinking, not enough wine selling! When fashion designer and adoptive mother, Annika Slotin, summoned her back to Paris to hire her for what Sémya considered being the easiest case of her amateur sleuth career, all she could think of and see was money signs and a well-deserved Cuban holiday once it was solved. What Sémya didn't see was her stumbling on the fresh corpse of supermodel Johanna Cartier. She didn't think that male model turned fashion designer Julian Marais-Caldwin, who also happened to be Sémya's ex, would be suspected of brutally murdering her. Johanna was his girlfriend, his muse and he loved her. Sémya didn't see the dead bodies piling up or the conspiracy theories. Sémya was a little rusty.

However Finan of Gournay, Rafe's foster brother and the captain of Valreks army, could not help a lingering feeling of worry. Were Rafe and Adele truly safe from Lord Kyule's hate? Adding to Finan's problems was the unsettling presence of Rafe's sister, Lady Esme. Used to keeping his distance from the woman of Valrek, Finan found that he could no longer escape as before. As danger and treachery enveloped Valrek, Finan and Esme found themselves drawn together to fight the shadowy assailant that threatened the lives of those they loved. What secrets would they unearth in their search for the enemy that taunted them? Would they find that their stories were more closely linked than either of them ever knew? Allow me please to answer these questions...

YOU TUBE TRAILER & PLAYLISTMy sister is a musician and she wrote two custom pieces for both books. The Promise [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsFh7KI6i5U] The Vow: [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q8XJp1Ezcwo] AUTHOR BIOHi everyone! My name is Dee Dee, I’m twenty six and I live in a beautiful part of Devon, England with my family. I have a younger sister, Amy who is a brilliant guitar player, some chickens, duck, geese, pheasants, a cat (that adopted us when we moved in!!!) and some Koi. Broken City is actually my second novel. My first, as my Aunt so delicately put it, was crazy but in my defence I was only sixteen at the time. On the plus side I learnt a lot (or so I hope) and two years later ‘Broken City’ was finished. I really hope you enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoy writing them. I love reading and have a kindle: I read almost anything with adventure and romance in it! I also like to cook and wear impractical high heels!!! And as you might have noticed I have a horrible addiction to exclamation marks!!!
