Italian Knight number 3 is out and it's Rocco Mamione's story aka the fastest and smoothest story I've ever written. Hank and I battered this out like the Mayans gave us our own deadline and the world was going to end this month. I didn't even skip to the sexy parts and fill in the rest - it just flowed, beginning to end. As fast as it was it was also cathartic. I got a quite a few things off my chest about what it means to be a woman, a friend, a daughter. There's also plenty in there that came straight from Lady London - must give her props for the Epilogue especially. I've got words in there that I have heard so many times from other women. The women I meet in my day job, that I work with, that I'm friends with and definitely women I now avoid like the freakin' plague. Ultimately, whatever interpretation people want to put on this back, it's called The Claim for a reason. I don't normally preach, because I'm a live and let live sort of woman, but whatever decisions you do make - man, woman or child - own them. Stand by them. Defend them if need be. Then you'll get the respect you are looking for. Ah, well. When you read it, you'll get it. You know what? Compared to Italian Knight number 4? This is starting to look kinda tame. Hank's been on some special ish, I can't even tell you. Onwards!

Yeah Billy- all hail the genius that is you. I love your books and I look forward to the Italian Knights 4. Even though, I haven't read The Calim yet. But I know that you won't disapooint. You never do. I've read just about all of your books at least 3 times per title. Oh Ms London- how I bow down to you. Smooches.
ReplyDeleteHello Aeriskl - awesome name. Smooches? Have you been watching Jay and Silent Bob? I saw Mallrats on TV the other day and cannot stop saying smoochie boochies! I really hope you enjoy this one coz, IK4 - gonna be a doozy!
ReplyDeleteMs London, you have done it again. I just finished reading The Claim and it was beautiful. As usual, you did not disappoint. Thank you for having Tony and Nick make an appearance, along with Massimo. That made my day. I'll be checking in with you constantly until IK4 is released and on my Kindle. Yes, I will be stalking you via chatrooms :-). BTW, Windows, On Caristo's Watch and @ Last are the books that introduced me to BTP along with rest of the MFP. Thank you for that. Therefore, I owe you more thanks than I'll ever be able to express to you. Now, I'm seriously babbling. I bow down to you and your genious creations. Caio Bella!
ReplyDeleteOh that makes me so happy! Not just that you enjoyed The Claim but that you got into books by my other family - the BTP ladies. I'm going to go before I start getting all emosh and stuff.
