TWICE as HOT
Tales of an
extra-ordinary girl
What
could be more fun than a woman developing unexpected superpowers? That same
woman trying to plan her wedding to a sexy government agent, of course!
Wedding
dress
is suddenly synonymous with
bonfire,
and a paraster—paranormal
disaster—waits around every corner.
But
I had to write this story. In
Playing with Fire,
the first novel in the
TALES OF AN
EXTRA
ORDINARY GIRL series, there was one narrative thread
that I did not tie up (and
could
not tie up at the time). One thread
that stuck with me all these years.
Was
Belle Jamison the one and only woman for Rome Masters?
Rome’s
ex, the world’s best psychic, doesn’t seem to think so. And when Rome returns
from a mission, minus only his memories of Belle, Belle begins to wonder, as
well. Are they or aren’t they? Can they or can’t they? I hope you enjoy
discovering the answers as much as I did.
Wishing
you all the best,
Gena
Showalter

—Find
out what’s bugging your BFF Sherridan even if you have to freeze her ass to a
wall. Literally! Her mood swings are worse than yours.
—Buy
(another) wedding dress. And for God’s sake, don’t set this one on fire.
—Order
the wedding napkins—without soaking them in torrents of your deadly rain
(again). Remember to insist your initials go
before
Rome’s this time and
maybe even call him “Mr. Belle Jamison.” He deserves it for continuing to call
you Homicidal Tendencies Wench. You warned him!
—Order
the invitations—finally! Oh, and maybe call Rome “Mr. Belle Jamison” on those,
too. Or “Cat Man.”
—Buy
Tanner a hooker blow-up doll to help him get over his breakup with Lexis. Poor
kid. Maybe let him pinch your butt.
—Kick
some scrim ass (it’s your job)! Try to make sure that be-yatch Desert Gal is
first up. She’s wily, that one.
—Set
Rome’s body on fire—without actual flames this time! If you can find him, that
is, the missing bastard jackass jerk.
Okay
. Here’s the
lowdown. My name is Belle Jamison. I’m twenty-five, happy, engaged and smart
depending on who—whom?—you’re asking. (Sadly, my teddy bear of a dad is the
only one who would pipe up with an affirmative
She’s brilliant!
) I’m a
former coffee wench (plus former bus driver, used-car salesman, factory worker,
maid and a thousand other menial jobs), now employed by the mysterious and
shadowy government agency known as PSI: Paranormal Studies and Investigations.
Oh,
and I happen to control the four elements with my emotions. (If you ask my
ultra-hot fiancé, Rome, he’ll tell you that control is relative.)
Anyway.
