I've been busy tending to my lawn (creatures called voles set up housekeeping under the snow, and now that it's melted they left a trail of depression trails over a large part of it), putting down fresh soil generously mixed with grass seed and taking advantage of all this free water (rainfall) to get the seeds to germinate, as well as finishing up my tax return. Today, author L.L. Reaper (actually a writing team consisting of authors Deatri King-Bey and Curtis L. Alcutt) are taking over Chewing the Fat. L.L. has an exciting new book out, Hell Hath No Fury.
Here's the description:
What happens when the heart’s desire of the most dangerous assassin on the planet is stolen from him? Roman “Sandman” Tate does not
take it well. Not at all.
The anguish of not being able to stop the kidnapping of his dangerously-sexy counterpart, Jeanette “Black Widow” Mason, is only half the story. The Black Widow has her own brand of fury to unleash on those unfortunate enough to violate her world.
Discover just how risky it is to disturb her web.
Hell Hath No Fury is part of the Black Widow series. It follows the first entry, Black Widow and the Sandman. In addition, the series also includes the short stories Birth of the Black Widow and The Sandman Cometh.

Take it away, L.L.! Back to my receipts I go...

L.L. Reaper: Writing
alongside my friend and mentor, Deatri King-Bey, has been one hell of a ride. Our
writing styles blended so well, we decided a few years ago to try and write a story together. Neither
of us had co-authored before, so this was an adventure for us. Our writing
voices are similar and blend well, but they are still different. How would we
bring two voices together as one? How would we navigate the twists and turns of
the plot without it becoming disjointed?
We outline, which neither of us like, but when working with a partner,
it’s extremely important. And guess what, the final manuscript doesn’t follow
the outline, but we communicate the organic changes that come along with
writing.
So what did
this partnership net? The dangerously sexy suspense series Black Widow and the
Sandman. While brainstorming during one of our Instant Messenger
chats, we were discussing an assassin-type story. My idea was for the assassin to be
suave when he had to be, dangerous all the time, a loner for the most part,
kill with no remorse (only if you deserved it), social malcontent. Low and
behold, Roman “Sandman” Tate was born!
Not to be outdone, Deatri whipped up the sexy, murderous,
brilliant, quick-witted, people-hating, genius Jeanette “Black Widow” Mason.
Along with her country music fetish, she also has a penchant for dining on
pizza and zinfandel—together. The best way to describe the series is a
combination of Mission Impossible
with a twist of James Bond on the
side. Only way cooler.
Added in the mix is their enigmatic puppeteer, Lincoln “Shadow”
Mallard. He is perhaps the only person
on the globe capable of forcing this pair of world-class assassins into doing
anything they didn’t want to do. Just released is the second story in the
series, Hell Hath No Fury. This stand-alone story will most definitely keep
you on the lookout for the further adventures of this cast of characters.

It was a dirty job, but someone had to do it (combine both books
into one eBook set). Order the eSet today, which includes Black Widow and the
Sandman and Hell Hath No Fury, and save $3. Now that’s a fantastic deal: Amazon (both print and Kindle formats), Barnes & Noble (Nook format).
