《Meet the authors Showcase Edition #1 (Est. 2/17/2020)》A showcase with @KimberlyTanithMarie, author of Blood, power and Desire

I wanted to create a more realistic mafia story. I mean come on, why would a powerful mafia boss let a young outsider disrespect him? It just isn't realistic, and I got tired of reading the same plots over and over. I just wanted to do something different.
Trying to keep the realism without going overboard. Especially where the proper use of guns were concerned. The mafia is full of a lot of violence, so it was a bit of a challenge to balance the romance and action, but I think I did a good job in the end.
Amazing! I had over 10k comments in just 10 weeks! Unfortunately, that success came with some drawbacks as some jealous person spam reported my story and wattpad unfairly took it down. When I contacted them about it they apologised, blaming it on some automatic system they had and they could not restore it. So I had to reupload the story. I edited some parts and added some additional content and many of the re-readers love this new version even more, so I suppose it was all a blessing in disguise.
The dynamics between the two main characters. Jade is a sadist and Dominic is a pyromaniac. They are both damaged, physically and emotionally, but balance each other perfectly. I had never written such over the top characters before, but I loved every minute of it.
Blood Power and Desire is the first in a four part series.
That even broken people can find their place in this world and no matter a person's past, they can overcome anything.
To write the story that they want to read and write about. That way, no matter what obstacles they face, they will still enjoy what they are doing.

Her fierce loyalty to those around her.

I think my unique take on a mafia romance, as one just needs to read the extended blurb to see that Jade and Dominic's story is a unique and addictive one.
Yes, I am currently working on a fantasy romance involving Lycans. It's called Mine At First Sight.

Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (Demonic LitRPG)
A LitRPG and Epic Fantasy adventure: The son of a mafia boss finds himself abruptly plunged into an alternate world where he must find a way to survive the horrors of a realm called Oblivion, make pacts with demons, form unnatural friendships, and figure out what the hell is going on – all while dealing with the depressing reality of his past. An artificial intelligence has ascended into godhood and has thrown Trey’s home into Chaos, pulling millions of people into an enchanted new life... or, in Trey's case, a violent nightmare. As far as he can tell, he is locked into what the system prompts call a ‘Death Game.’ Here, artificial reality is manufactured for the enjoyment of a being called the All Spirit, and he has a very real chance of truly dying. Just how real is this place though? Is it merely a simulation, a realistic game of life and death… or is it something much more? Elves, dwarves, undead, and other races only thought to exist in fairy tales are now a reality. Black magics, pantheons of gods at odds with one another, predatory symbiotes, and an unholy calling, the significance of which he has yet to grasp, are all entangled with his fate. ============================================ ============================================ Some things to expect when reading this book series: - Brutal storyline where no character is safe and choices have real consequences. Heavy on action, survival, and adventure - An isekai. The main character struggles to find himself, repeatedly crossing the line between good and evil as other important characters influence his life - Harem (explicit), though this only starts about 180k words in. - Good amounts of crafting, town building, and guild building later on - Good amounts of fantasy-related LitRPG stats, rank ups, and evolutions. Heavy focus on demons and black magics - There will be many points of view, but there is only one primary/main character that takes up 90% of the POV - A long storyline. Currently (as of 7/26/2021) I have about 1500k words written, though much of it will have to be heavily edited and re-written. I also plan to go far beyond 1500k words if people like the story (A lot of it is also in the 'backstories' book that explores the guildmates, the link is below) - Chapters will have an average of about 4k-5k words, a little longer than most other books on RR, though there will be exceptions for more and less. I just didn't like posting chapters that didn't feel complete, and 2k words often felt like too little. - If you like super-heroic and goody-goody characters, this story is not for you. ***Updated once a week***
