I tried interviewing my hero from
VOWS OF REVENGE for a blog post a few weeks ago. It
didnโt go well. Heโs very close-mouthed. Today I thought Iโd try a Q&A with
Melodie, heroine of
VOWS OF REVENGE.
Dani: Melodie, how did you come to meet Roman?
Melodie: I didnโt realize it at the time, but my father manipulated me
into it. He forced me to put on a state funeral for my mother, so he could have a
photo opp and win voter sympathy, but he never loved my mother, never loved me. I
only did it so heโd give me her ashes. He even made me invite some of her old
school friends to speak. One of them was Ingridโs mother. My father was trying to
get information on Roman, and Ingrid is his personal assistant. My father doesnโt
know that I wound up with the contract to plan Ingridโs wedding or that Roman is
hosting it at his Mediterranean villa. As far as Iโm concerned, now that mom is
gone, Iโll never have to speak to my father again.
Dani: You sound bitter.
Melodie:I try not to be. My father and my half-brother are reprehensible
people and they both hurt me in more ways than I can count, but I try not to
dwell on that or let it affect how I live my life. I canโt allow them to make me
bitter. Thatโs a win for them. I would far rather be a happy person who is kind
and generous, spreading good rather than adding to the bad that they already
bring to the world.
Dani: Wow. Roman doesnโt take that attitude, does he? He was driven by
bitterness after he found out who your father was. He slept with you then ruined
your life!
Melodie: He thought I was spying for my father, but at the time getting
fired and evicted was awfully cruel. I hated him quite a bit. And hated him more
for making me think all men were heartless bastards. The only thing that kept me
going all those years when my father made me miserable was a belief that I would
make better choices with men than my mother did.
Dani: But you didnโt?
Melodie: [glances lovingly at Roman] My husband is a very private person,
but once I got to know him, I knew he was perfect for me.
Dani: Doesnโt it bother him that youโve been talking about him here?
Roman: I hate it. Weโre done.

Revenge never tasted so sweetโฆ

back to reality when Roman reveals his true plansโฆto ruin her!
Satisfying the longing in Melodie's entrancing blue eyes was a glitch in Roman's
plan. Convinced she'd been sent by his enemy, he intended to simply punish her!
Except it seems that Melodie was innocent, and now Roman's plan takes a different
turnโฆ Could his vows of revenge become vows of marriage?
