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.

Tale of the Bloodstained Hero
To succeed is to forge a path of your own, liberated by your own hand to combat fate in a way that you decide. To fail is to walk the corpse-riddled road of the Bloodstained Hero, tethered by a fate you cannot control, and doomed to walk it forever alone. After managing to stumble his way into a fantastical new world, twenty two year old Cyr is almost immediately tricked into an alleyway and jumped by a brutish thug out for his head. Bloodied, beaten and near death, Cyr is saved by a strange power that temporarily allows him to copy his opponent's fighting style. After leaving to join an affluent mercenary group known as the Adventurers Guild, he is soon contacted by a mysterious figure that sheds light on his eventual destiny of warring with an enemy of overwhelming, near godly power. Follow Cyr's adventure in his rise to Herohood for the Seynith Dynasty all while slowly uncovering a plot with roots spread deeper than ever thought possible. It doesn't take long for him to realize just how brutal and unforgiving this new world can truly be. This is an edited version of the original, which is where new chapters will be found. The unedited release can still be found on my page, but it will no longer be updated.
