They say good things come to those who wait. Bullsh*%! My whole life has been about waiting. Playing it safe. Be the good girl, don't color outside the lines. Put in the hard work trying to prove myself to Dad, then to my college professors, then to my boss at New World Media. Just waiting for the day when it will all pay off. And right when it was all starting to--I finally had the house, the job, I was even thinking about getting a cat--boom!--my life explodes and suddenly now I'm here and-- "All done," the doctor interrupts my thoughts, pulling off her gloves with a loud snap. Even from the bed where I'm lying, my legs spread like the Thanksgiving turkey, I can hear the impatient growl of the man standing in the doorway. If you can even call him a man. More like a beast out of a friggin' fairytale. "Well?" Her pronouncement echoes throughout the room while the speculum is still inside me. "She's a virgin."

A playboy, a tomboy, and an ex-con. They couldn't be more different. The only place all those differences disappear? The bedroom. "Let's go in," Liam said, taking the hotel keycard Calla had been clutching. She looked confused until Liam eyed Mack and said, "All of us." Calla's eyes widened and her mouth dropped open slightly. But when the door unlocked, she stepped inside and held it open wide. In invitation. F*ck him. Mack felt it in his chest and his balls--the wanting. She doesn't know what she's inviting in. Liam stepped right over the threshold, but still, Mack hesitated. She deserves a million times better than either of you horny f*cks. Mack was about to turn around and leave. He really was. But then Calla reached over and took his hand. With her other, she reached out to Liam. When she started tugging them inside, Mack let himself be pulled forward. He didn't know if he was heading into heaven or hell. But as the door closed behind him, Mack knew there was no other place he'd rather be.

VIRGIN AND THE BEASTIntroductionShe was an experimental baby-clone reborn from the ashes of "9-11" that in less than seven years evolved into a manipulative, nymphomaniac woman with two active personalities always in need of sexual attention. Legends hold that she was the re-incarnation of a cursed Virgin, banished unto the other side of Hell; women through the ages whispered her forbidden name as a death-wish against abusive & unfaithful men: "La Virgen Maldita"= "Cursed Virgin of Death," some of them called her, for she was the sexiest of them all, but any man who had sex with her either died or lost his mind. The Virgin makes love to any man without question but the Beast within her kills them in the act, without hesitation.Harold Lapaz is a veteran killer for hire, a savoir-faire bipolar man who has managed to keep his two incompatible personalities from intersecting by controlling his own cunning, wicked alter ego. Suddenly he finds himself tangled up in between the legs of an insatiable sexual predator, living under the enchantment of a woman who actually isn't a woman at all. They are both hunters as well as the hunted, chased by an unorthodox and tenacious network of detectives. Virgin is also a perfect cover up for a serial killer so lethally clever that no one has ever suspected them -until now.Can the Virgin and Mr. Harold outsmart the system by concealing their shocking double life or will someone expose their crimes and true identities?
