PaintedPassion (17 page)

Saying a quick prayer of thanks, Carlos kicked off his shoes
and ran to join his future.

Tamara Hunter fell in love with romances at an early age and
always had a book in hand. Her love of reading continues today and she enjoys
romantic fiction from historicals to contemporaries to paranormals.

Everyone needs love and there’s nothing more satisfying for
Tamara than exploring relationships between characters—particularly when said
relationships include hard-to-resist, sexy men who will do anything for the
woman they desire.

When she’s not creating tales of her own, she enjoys
spending time with family and friends, cooking and traveling.
