Author/Reader Match: Nicola Rendell

goodreadstwitterfacebook
Instead of trying to find your perfect match in a dating app, we bring you the "Reader Match" where we introduce you to authors as a reader you may fall in love with. It's our great pleasure to present Nicola Rendell.

Writes

:

I write sweet and naughty rom-com. My upcoming release is SHIMMY BANG SPARKLE, which comes out on August 21, 2018.

About

:

Nothing brings me greater joy as a writer than to learn that I've swept a reader off her feet. I think romance is the ultimate escape from everyday life and I like to write stories that transport us to a place where love is all-consuming and all-important. I love the chaos of new love and the frenzy of falling hard and fast for someone that makes your heart tumble in your chest. When I'm not reading or writing, I love to cook, sew, and play the piano. I am utterly smitten with my dogs and my husband. And sugar cookies.

What I'm looking for in my ideal reader match

:
  • You like to giggle.
  • You enjoy wild and unbridled passion.
  • You love your heroines feisty and funny.
  • You dig alphas with an unexpected softer side.
  • You have a fan handy.

What to expect if we're compatible

:
  • Lots of steam
  • Lots of laughs
  • Rom-coms that take you a little deeper than most.
  • Tons of wonderful giveaways in my reader group on Facebook.

SHIMMY BANG SPARKLE by Nicola Rendell

Shimmy
Bang Sparkle

All Nick Norton wants is to stay on the straight and narrow…and never get caught stealing again. Then he lays eyes on her: Stella Perettiβ€”100 percent sexy and absolutely irresistible. Especially when he sees her smooth moves lifting a two-karat diamond. Nick realizes he's found the sparkling woman of his dreamsβ€”one so perfect for him it's almost criminal.

The Shimmy Shimmy Bangs are master jewel thieves who are planning the heist of
the century. And Shimmy leader, Stella, isn't about to let anyoneβ€”even if he is
a hunky, tatted-up studmuffinβ€”get in her way. But when two of her girls are put
out of commission, Stella realizes that Nick isn't just a red-hot distraction.
He might be the answer to her pilfering prayers.

Now, Nick and Stella are putting everything on the line for one last job. But when two thieves have this much chemistry, it's only a matter of time before somebody's heart gets stolen.
