Hi, I'm Mia Hopkins and I write supersexy contemporary romance. My latest
release,
THIRSTY, is
about an ex-convict and former gang member who falls in love with his landlady,
a young single mother who works as a bookkeeper and is studying to become an
accountant.
Sal and Vanessa might be from the same neighborhood, but they are two people
heading in different directions. Vanessa is working hard to secure her
daughter's future. Sal is on parole and re-starting his life from the ground up.
Their toughness, passion, and deep desire for a better future eventually bind
Sal and Vanessa together in ways neither one expect.
For introverted, broody Sal Rosas, so only an outspoken heroine will do. Here's
what Vanessa Velasco is all about.
Eastside Brewery
#1
A gangster hiding from his past. A single mom fighting for her future. Can
she show this bad boy the man he's meant to be?
My name is Salvador Rosas. Back in the barrio, my past is written on
the walls: ESHB. Short for East Side Hollenbeck, my father's gangβmy
gang. Hell, it's a family tradition, one that sent both my brothers away. They
used to call me "Ghost" because I haunted people's dreams. Now I've got nothing
going for me except a hipster gringo mentoring me in a new career. An ex-con
making craft beer? No mames.
Still, people in this neighborhood
look out for one another. That's how I became Vanessa Velasco's unwelcome
tenant. Chiquita pero picosa. She's little, but with curves so sweet
they're dangerous. I remember Vanessa from the old days, the straight-A student
with big plans. Plans that were derailed by another kid stupid enough to think
he was bulletproof. Now Vanessa knows better than to believe in empty promises.
There's fire in her . . . and if I touch her, I might get burned.
I'm
trying everything I can to go straight. But when East Side Hollenbeck comes
calling, I might have to risk it all to find out if there's a future for Vanessa
and me. Because she's the only one who can quench my thirst for something real.
