Meghan March | Common Threads: The Beneath Series

When I started writing BENEATH THIS MASK, I honestly had no idea where the Beneath series would go. Now that BENEATH THESE CHAINS is out in the wild and I’m hard at work on book four, I’ve been looking back at the common threads weaved through the series. The whole concept behind the Beneath books is that no one is only who they seem on the surface. We all have secrets, stories, and demons hiding beneath the persona we share with the public. In order to truly know another person and understand them, you have to look beneath. It’s so easy to judge someone else and apply our preconceived notions without bothering to go deeper. I think that’s my favorite part about writing this series—that none of the characters are exactly who they seem to the outside world. I think it reminds me to be less judgmental and more curious— because I want to understand what makes people tick, and I’m rarely satisfied with surface level interactions.

Also, if you’ve read all of the books in the series, you might have picked up on another common
thread: the importance of giving back. It wasn’t ever intentional on my part, but it seems that
charities and nonprofits have a way of showing up in my books. I think when something is deeply
rooted inside the author, it has a way of finding its way into their writing.

My parents and grandparents volunteered much of their time to different charitable endeavors
during my childhood, and growing up with that kind of behavior instilled in me the need to do
the same. I strongly believe that if I have the means, the time, or the ability, it is my duty
to give back. Several of my characters worked at or started nonprofit organizations aimed at
helping others. As I said earlier, it wasn’t ever intentional… it just happened.

As for what’s next… I’m hard at work on Lucas Titan’s book, and his redemption may be the most
fun I’ve ever had writing. There’s nothing I love more than watching my strong, sassy female
characters bring their man to his knees—all in the name of love.

Happy reading!

About BENEATH THESE CHAINS

I was raised on the streets, so I know things are rarely as simple as they appear— especially this rich girl showing up at my pawnshop demanding a job.

She’s the most tempting thing I’ve ever seen, and I’ll be damned if I can make her leave.

Shit just got complicated … but when it comes to her, I want complicated.

We’re both fighting our own demons, and our only chance at a future is to let go of the past.

But will we be strong enough to break free from beneath these chains? Read an Excerpt
