Blog postAshes to Ashesby Marita A. Hansen
L Davies has been besotted with Ash Rata ever since he walked into her high school class twelve years ago. She just never thought he'd be interested in her, due to her being intersex. Mistakenly brought up as a boy, L has transformed over the years into a stunning woman, and has accumulated a devoted following after becoming the lead guitarist for Ash's brother, the infamous Dante. But although she has a legion of fans, all she wants is Ash, loving him unc -
Blog postI have FINALLY emailed the last chapters to my editor. I'd hoped to have had them done prior to my surgery, but I just couldn't do it on time, mostly because I added about 10 more pages to the book. Anyway, it's completed, so now I just have to get into the mode of proofreading the book, which is a painful process, one I hate doing since I go over and over and OVER the book countless times, making sure there aren't any errors (even though those pesky things still manage to slip through).

Blog postLOVE HATE LOVE SAMPLE#NA #CollegeRomance #UniversityRomance #MentalIllness #TurbulentLove
This book is set in 2005 and 2006.
~ 1 ~I didn’t want to be here, felt way out of my comfort zone. It wasn’t for me, wasn’t the kind of thing I did. Unfortunately, it was exactly what my best friend would do, a friend who was right now shaking with excitement at the thought of entering the strip joint, or in her words, ‘the male review’.“Why do they call it that?” I asked Julia. -
Blog postI can't wait to get LOVE HATE LOVE out to you all, I really mean that because I'm so excited about this book. I think I've FINALLY written a commercial book. In the past I've hoped for my books to do well, but deep down I knew they wouldn't give me what I wanted... TO LIVE OFF MY WRITING. Instead, they caused me financial woes, doing more damage to my bank account than righting it. But LOVE HATE LOVE... I think I have finally hit it on the nail with this one. Why is it so different? Because I ha

By Marita A. HansenCopyright 2016 © Marita A. Hansen
UK English is used due to the New Zealand setting.All other variations are also due to where the book is set, as well as the characters’ cultural and socio-economic backgrounds. This is why some characters use different speech patterns from others. This book is set in the year 2002.

Blog postDid having read the Behind the Lives series help with understanding the Broken Lives series? Broken Lives is a spin-off from Behind the Lives.
JAGGED PILL was the hardest to write out of all of these books in the sense that I had to align it with the Behind the Lives series. The huge time jump, putting Dante where he needs to be to continue on from where Behind the Secrets left off, as well as explaining why he doesn't remember things, etc. LOVE STONED (Broken Lives #4) will basically cont -
Blog postWhen I finally get around to writing BEHIND THE BARS Jasper Rakete from the Broken Lives series will be in it. He's in jail at the same time as Saul and will be an unlikely ally. Why? He respects Saul for what he did for the Connors. Jasper may have been in jail during the whole of the Behind the Lives series, hence why you never saw him in it, but he is still Dante's best friend and hears everything that goes on in his life. BTW, I've decided not to write Jasper a novel series, I think his stor

Blog postI want to tell you a bit about my new series LOVERS & SINNERS. Although it isn't My Masters' Nightmare, it does continue from it, so you will be seeing many of the characters from that series in it. In the first books the story will follow Sasha (the Russian guard originally captured by the Donatelli in the early episodes of MMN) & Andriena (Camila's sister). This story is set in the Black Palace, so you will get a lot of the Black Russian. Camila and Matteo are also in the novella, but

Blog postAfter writing BEHIND THE SECRETS I am determined not to let my mafia stories, regardless of sales, determine when I publish the next Behind the Lives installment. It was like going home with Behind the Secrets. I know exactly what to write, things come naturally, I don't even have to think half the time, whereas with the mafia ones I feel like I never get things right, have to constantly question what I write, never know how people are going to react. I Love You, Salvatore is the only excep

Blog postBelow is BEHIND THE SECRETS' progress, so you know I'm not getting distracted by other books :) I will be publishing it next. Sorry, I don't have a date yet, but will let you know when it's been set.
1 I've currently written just over 35, 000 words.
2 I wrote about 3,000 words today. I have been known to write considerably more than this when I'm on a role, so don't worry, it's rolling along well.

And he wants Ivy, the second in command of the Vipers—a team of female assassins. Having been owned before, Ivy tries to resist Brando, who is just as deviant as her former master—a notorious human traffic -

Blog postI LOVE YOU, SALVATORE
ROSA
Every love story is important, whether it ends in a happy-ever-after or tragedy, because two people shared something so special that it made them value each other’s life more than their own. I know this is true because my life with Salvatore Santini was a beautiful love story…One that ended far too soon.But I would rather live for only one day with him, than suffer a lifetime without him. Being with Salvatore was worth a thousand deaths. Through him -
