Hello live-journal people.
Well, I am feeling better after my retarded ex-best friend sent those nice PM messages to me. Anyway, this post is about my novels that I will be writing and hopefully by January of 2011 will be published for the Harlequin Presents company. The books made for woman (and guys who actually like romance).
From the stories I write now, I am getting feedback. It's high-time I try for the actual thing don't you think? All I want is to write three books (they don't have to best sellers...) about romance and the struggles in a relationship. I KNOW I have it in me to write three, exceptionally, good books.
Ever since I was fourteen, writing about were I left off in a movie my other best friend so we could resume it easily. It became stronger as my other friend friend joined in and we continued to write each other with stories and how our lives were going at the time.
As I continue to write love stories, I know I can accomplish one of my life tasks. Writing was and still is one of the careers that I would like to see happen. If I can do that then maybe I can finish the rest of what I started. I know I'm taking a risk. What if the publishers don't like them? What if they edit the stories so much that there is no backbone to the story?
I have to take a chance sooner or later, right?
Once I actually do this, I will only have two more things that I want to accomplish. That would be being a wedding planner to one of my friend's weddings and learning Japanese and even traveling to Japan.
The summaries are very different but it took a lot of thinking. One evening, I couldn't sleep but then I got to thinking about writing a few stories for Harlequin Presents. All my books will be under y business name...Marlene Nelson (same as my Avon name).
Book 1: The story behind it is simple. It's about love, betrayal, revenge and passion.
Bride On Demand
When Allison Maguire stormed into Vincent Cristaldi's office after three years with a proposition, it had stunned the irresistibly handsome Italian tycoon! Allison is looking after her identical twin sister, Laura, who was the cause of her breaking up with Vincent in the first place. Vincent wants revenge!
Three years ago, she was just a woman of twenty-one and he held himself back. He will offer Allison an ultimatum-become his bride on demand and share his bed or risk her family's reputation! He's confident she'll make the right choice...
Book 2: This story is about seeking forgiveness, raw passion brewing, opposites attract.
The Greek's Innocent Wife
Two years ago, Diana Reed had fallen completely in love with Alexander Dranias; the tall, dark and handsome Greek Tycoon. She left for England, once she saw him with another woman, vowing never to see him again. Now she is forced to return to Greece by her dying mother who wants her to be well looked after before she dies.
Upon hearing of Diana's return, the handsome Greek tycoon will stop at nothing to get the beautiful redhead woman to agree to marry him. What would he gain by having a wife who was naive when it came to the opposite sex?
What would Alexander do when he finds out that his new bride is a...virgin? Alexander knows that once Diana has a taste of his bed she will never want to leave.
Book 3: Is a topic very dear to my heart because I'm sure we all met men or little boys who only want what's best for them. They don't know how to be real men and tell the woman to abort the BABY... either that or they'll leave and have the woman become a single mom. This one is going to be a little tricky to write. It's not going to be dark or anything. It will be in the same fashion as the Harlequin Presents books often are.
The Italian Duke's Lover
Victoria Mackendrick was an independent woman who was working, as a secretary, in Italy, for the demanding Duke Demetri Corazzi. Victoria swore she would never let Demetri get to close to her.
But what happens when her father gets a crazy idea to set his daughter up with her boss? And what happens when Demetri finds out that the woman he is meeting is his very lovely, personal secretary who he's been wanting for months?
Will he walk away from her after he's had his fill of her or will he insist that she stay with him?
Once she tells him the repercussions of their night of love making, she expects him to hand her money and deal with the problem...But will Demetri have another idea?
The reason why I am doing all this is to prove to myself that I can. To prove to ANY of my EX-friends (you know who you are) that having nothing to do with me...is only turning yourself into a degrading woman.
