O Autorce

Christine Merrill lives in rural Wisconsin about ten minutes outside of pizza delivery range with her high school sweetheart and two sons, a one hundred pound golden retriever, a pond full of goldfish and two cats with active social lives. She talks frequently about getting "just a few sheep or maybe a llama." Everyone breathes a sigh of relief when she stops.

Chris has wanted to be a writer for as long as she can remember, and during a stint as a stay-at-home-mom decided that it was time to "write that book." It would be a part-time job. She could set her own hours, and would never have to wear pantyhose to work.

How hard could it be?

Seasons changed, as did the century. Manuscripts piled up, along with rejections. But she slogged onward and seven years later, she got the thrill of seeing her first book hit the bookstores.

When not writing, Chris can be found at the movies, halfway back and towards the center, with a large buttered popcorn (but only if the film has a happy ending).

GIVING IN TO TEMPTATION WOULD BE THE RUIN OF THEM ALL!

Having spent years believing a lie about his birth, Dr. Samuel Hastings has been condemned to a personal hell of his desire's making-his sinful thoughts of the one woman he can never touch would damn his soul for eternity.

Lady Evelyn Thorne is engaged to the very suitable Duke of St. Aldric when a shocking truth is revealed-and now Sam will play every bit of the devil to seduce the woman he thought would always be denied him!

Premiera 23.04.2013

“How do you always know where to find me?''
His voice achingly gentle, he says, "The same way a compass knows how to find true north.”
― J.T. Geissinger, Cruel Paradise

“It’s not inexplicable. I like you the way Newton liked gravity.”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“Once he found it, everything else in the universe made sense.”
― J.T. Geissinger, Cruel Paradise

“Life is short. You don't get a do-over. Kiss who you need to kiss, love who you need to love, tell anyone who disrespects you to go f*ck themselves. Let your heart lead you where it wants to. Don't ever make a decision based on fear. In fact, if it scares you, that's the thing you should run fastest toward, because that's where real life is. In the scary parts. In the messy parts. In the parts that aren't so pretty. Dive in and take a swim in all the pain and beauty that life has to offer, so that at the end of it, you don't have any regrets.” ― J.T. Geissinger, Cruel Paradise

„Sekret Emily” – bohater nurzający się we własnym nieszczęściu, dopóki nie dostał kopa na rozpęd od bohaterki, ale sama historia, o dziwo, wyszła całkiem sensownie; poza tym ślepota ślepotą, ale metaforycznie to dopiero :hyhy:
