Story Behind The Book
Tony & Ryan are two characters from a series I've been working on for more years than I care to say. For the longest time I had a heck of a time connecting with Ryan until I explored this other hidden side of him. He's 1 of 4 brothers. He's an orphan. He's an undercover agent on the run. I tried for years to get inside his head for the series. He played hide and seek with me for a long time to the point that I almost took him out of the story all together. Then a fellow author challenged me to delve into the magic world of m/m romance. He actually challenged me to do this and because the story was written for him, he suggested using characters I was familiar with. Yes, by the time I was given this challenge I was well into the start of the 3rd book of that series and still fighting with Ryan. So I figured what the heck. No one will read the story anyway, it's being written for my friend and I needed to find out what was up with Ryan. I found out. And I'm thrilled. I'm now writing him with ease in the series and even went back to book 1 and fixed all the issues I had with him. YAY!
