Release Day Blitz for Unwanted Girl by MK Schiller!!

Title: Unwanted Girl

Author: MK Schiller

Genre: Multi-Cultural, Contemporary Romance

Hosted by: Lady Amber's Tours

Blurb: When a man loves a woman Recovering addict Nick Dorsey finds solace in his regimented life. That is until he meets Shyla Metha.  Something about the shy Indian beauty who delivers take-out to his Greenwich Village loft inspires the reclusive writer. And when Shyla reveals her desire to write a book of her own, he agrees to help her. The tale of a young Indian girl growing up against a landscape of brutal choices isn’t Nick’s usual territory, but something about the story, and the beautiful storyteller, draws him in deep. Shyla is drawn to Nick, but she never imagines falling for him. Like Nick, Shyla hails from a village, too…a rural village in India. They have nothing in common, yet he makes her feel alive for the first time in her life. She is not ready for their journey to end, but the plans she’s made cannot be broken…not even by him. Can they find a way to rewrite the next chapter?

I am a hopeless romantic in a hopelessly pragmatic world. By day, I don a magic cape, calculator (sometimes an abacus), and an assortment of gel pens for my work in the world of finance. But by night, I sit by the warm glow of my computer monitor, and try to create passionate heartwarming stories with a healthy dash of humor and spice.

I am a wife and mother of two loveable, but angst-ridden teenagers, that provide great material for my craft. Although I love to write, I am a reader first and enjoy nothing more than curling up with a good book and some tasty Italian (the food, of course!). I hope you enjoy my stories.

“What are the other meanings for shucks?” she asked.

“It has many definitions. It can be a husk on the outer layer of corn. Or it can mean worthless.” She gave him a questioning look so he offered an example, dropping his voice slightly. “Like I don’t give a shucks about what we do as long as we do it together.” Her face flushed slightly, her smile turning suggestive. Encouraged, he dropped his voice a few octaves more. Test the water, Dorsey, but don’t fucking dive in! “Or it could mean to discard.”

“Discard?”

“As in peel off. For example, she shucked off her black T-shirt in a hurry.” His feet dipped into the complicated waters he’d avoided, waters that could heat up to boiling point if they kept creeping down this dangerous path.

“I see. So if I said, do you mind if we don’t shuck tonight, that would be a proper use?”

Nick opened his mouth to respond, to try to eat up the words already spilling out into the atmosphere, but she held up her hand, and her lips parted slightly. “But I hope we do shuck one day.”

Naughty girl.

She shrugged. “The writing’s good, but I didn’t care for the characters.”

“Why not?”

“They felt one-dimensional. He comes across as a womanizing, self-indulgent fool.”

Nick arched his brow, his lips quirking into a grin. “He’s got his faults, but I wouldn’t describe him that way.”

“As bad as he was, though, the heroine was even worse. She seemed stupid and fake…almost vapid. She was always getting herself into trouble and falling into hot water.” Encouraged by his amused smile, she continued, “And I refer to hot water in the literal sense. The one I read, the girl was suspended from the ceiling over a pot of boiling water until Max Montero swooped in at the last minute.”

“It was acid, and he likes saving beautiful women from danger. What’s wrong with that?”

“She could have saved herself, or better yet, not gotten into the situation. And he…well, he could have been nicer to her in general.”

“Not every hero comes in a one-size-fits-all package, Shyla. Don’t hold back, though. Tell me what you really think.”

“Okay, I will. I can appreciate a different kind of hero, but I’d like one with a functioning set of scruples. In the scheme of things, these books don’t deserve shelf space with the others. They definitely fall into the dime store drivel category.”

“Ouch,” Nick said, pouring himself another drink. “I don’t think you understand the concept of sarcasm.”

She opened and shut her mouth as the realization hit her. “You were joking when you asked me to tell you what I really thought?”

“Yeah, but don’t worry about it.”

“So, what do you do for a living?” she asked, anxious to change the subject. It was possible she’d accidently insulted one of his favorite novelists.

“I’m an author.”

“Have you written anything I might have read?”

“The dime store drivel you’re holding.”

Uh oh.

Blurb:
On the first day of her nude modeling job, Elle deals with a corpse, an eccentric dark artist, his sexy brother, and a grandmother that can see someone's future by just touching their hands. Although these crazy distractions shove her on edge, it's just what she needs to mend her battered heart and forget about her ex-boyfriend. Besides, she does get to live in their castle for the whole three months.

Everything seems magical and perfect. Until more dead bodies are discovered.

There's something going on at night, right in the artist's garden. Under the moonlight, young women are being cut and sliced, and no one has a clue to who's doing it. And the more she's around the weird family in the castle, the more she realizes that they all are hiding secrets.

~~~~~~~~~~~

THE REVIEW

Another book that had me up into the wee hours reading it!!  I loved it!!  It had me pretty much from the first sentence!!

Elle is starting over, and the way she does that is going to model for the one man her ex hated.  His competition.  Hex Castillo.  What she didn't expect was to meet his gorgeous older brother Alveraz at the same time.  

It doesn't help that there is a dead body there to greet her when she arrives at the artist's family castle.  She's unsure, but she has no where else to go, and decides to take the chance despite her reservations.  She's starting a new life, and is determined not to go back to her artist ex.

Soon, another girl is killed and Elle is horrified to know it's a girl was just starting to befriend.  She decides to stay on at the castle, but makes it known she's gone if she feels threatened in any way.

At the same time, she's getting closer to Alveraz.  She doesn't want to start anything, for fear of being hurt all over again.  Her ex hurt her deeply, and she doesn't want to feel that again.  Al wants her, but knows he needs to wait for her to trust him before anything happens.  

I loved this book!!  As I said, another book that had me up until almost one in the morning.. mostly because my droid died on me at the time.  I didn't have my charger near me, so I had no choice but to go to bed.  

Alvarez is captivated by Elle, but he has secrets of his own.  Also, there is someone else who wants him, which makes things difficult for Elle and Alvarez.  

I loved that this book was not only a suspense, but also a book about finding one's indentity.  Elle has been with one man for a long time, and she lost her sense of self.  Going to work for Hex was her way of finding herself again and getting out of the clutches of a man who treated her horribly.  

Alvarez... oh man... he's yummy.  I loved his dedication to his family, but even he couldn't seem to control everything they did.  Much to his dismay. They all have minds of their own, which is not always a good thing....
