Iโm going to let you in on a little secret.
Ready?
Okay, here goes.
I have a secret love affair with the best friendโs little sister love trope.
Yep, you heard me right. I love it. LOVE. It. Madly, truly, deeply. Thereโs just
something about a forbidden romance on that kind of level that gets me hooked on
a story.
Most of the time, the trope has an older brother (or four, if youโre talking
about my newest release,
THE
CEO'S SEDUCTION, the first in an exciting new series) who absolutely does
not approve of the sister and his best bud dating.
Because of this, you have an automatic tension in your book that sizzles, snaps,
and pulls you in. Thereโs the secrecy of the love affair, something both the
heroine and hero will fight to keepโฆ
But you know itโs all gonna come out eventually, and when it does, which way
will the cards fall? Will the hero bail, and apologize to his best bud, or will
he stand by the heroineโs side, and take whatever comes his way, all in the name
in love?
If Iโm being one hundred percent honest, I think thatโs my favorite moment in
the best friendโs little sister tropeโthe moment where the shit hits the fan, so
to speak.
In my newest release,
THE
CEO'S SEDUCTION, the heroine doesnโt just have one older brotherโshe has
FOUR. Anna has been in love with Brett Ross her whole life, so when theyโre
stuck in the same house due to her brotherโs wedding, she canโt help but thinkโฆ
This is the perfect time to get him.
Brett, on the other hand, has made a blood pact to never, ever touch Anna, and
itโs a promise he intends to keep. Even if he didnโt want to, he has her four
angry brothers breathing down his neck and reminding him that sheโs off limits
to a guy like him, so a man would have to be crazy to ignore all of that to get
the girl of his dreams in his bedโฆ
Right?
Needless to say, when the shit hits the fan in this book, it hits it HARD.
Tell me, have you ever dated for brotherโs best friend, or has your sister ever
dated your brother, and you didnโt approve? If so, how did it all work out when
everyone found out the truthโฆ
And the secret was out?
Diane Alberts has always been a dreamer with a vivid imagination, but
it wasn't until 2011 that she put her pen where her brain was, and became a
published author. Since receiving her first contract offer, she has yet to stop
writing. Though she lives in the mountains, she really wishes she was surrounded
by a hot, sunny beach with crystal clear water. She lives in Northeast
Pennsylvania with her four kids, a husband, a cat, and a Senegal parrot. In the
rare moments when she's not writing, she can usually be found hunched over one
knitting project or another.
Hamilton Family
#1
The last thing Brett Ross wants is to be back in the same old damn small town
he grew up in, but his best friend is getting married, so thereโs no way heโs
skipping yet another visit back home. He knows what heโs getting into, coming
back here, but the one thing he didnโt count on was the way Anna Hamilton made
him feel the first time he sets eyes on herโฆand sheโs all grown up.
Annaโs always been in love with Brett, even if sheโs always been his best
friendโs annoying little sister to him. But when he looks at her, she doesnโt
see annoyance in his eyes anymore. If anything, she sees a silent calling for
her to save him from himselfโฆand sheโs just the girl to do it. All she needs is
to find a way to escape her pesky, protective older brothers.
And then the
game is on.
