Guess what? It's interview time! I had the pleasure of Vanessa Lanang, a brilliant fantasy and contemporary romance author! Join us as we discuss the BTS of "Fireheart" and the "The Beautiful Game"! Vanessa transports the reader into a world of fierce dragons and thrilling romance. Follow Kaliyah as she navigates an intricate world of dragons and hidden truths. The truth is often as nuanced as the lies that cover them. There is much to undercover and plenty of fun waiting!
Fireheart Synopsis:
Kaliyah is sworn to slay the dragon that took her mother's life. But, even with the skills of generations of slayers coursing through her veins, she's not prepared for Ryu, the one boy who can make her question everything she believes in. When the Dragon Akademie orders the unwarranted execution of two slayers, Kaliyah is shocked by the revelation of their corrupt rule. Seeking vengeance for her mother, she forges an alliance with Ryu.
With dangerous lies uncovered at every turn, Kaliyah and Ryu's worlds converge, stoking the flames between them. But one dark secret they both share can rip them apart... if it doesn't destroy Kaliyah first.
The Beautiful Game Synopsis:
Instead of a proposal for her 30th birthday, Vera Martinez got dumped. To get her mind off her heartache, Vera’s sister whisks her away on a girls’ night out, starting with a Bloodhounds soccer game. When Vera can’t take her eyes off the sexy pro midfielder, Joe dela Cruz—a well-known player who causes problems on and off the field—Vera knows exactly how she wants to forget about her ex.
Thirty-three-year-old Joe is almost at the end of the line. He’s only two years from aging out of professional soccer, and his Coach is sick of his shenanigans. When Joe is tempted to cross that line with Coach’s only daughter, he’s given a hefty ultimatum: get in a different relationship (aka stay away from his daughter) or be benched for the rest of his career.
Vera comes on to Joe, hoping for the perfect rebound with a carefree playboy. Joe accepts her advances, believing she’s the steady girl to fix his reputation and save his career. But as Vera and Joe unknowingly work against each other, they also face the pesky reality of their genuine and unwanted attraction to one another.
Win or lose, love—like soccer—is a beautiful game.
