SYNOPSIS
A Crazy Kind of Love
A Crazy Kind of Love
Meet Cimil. Yeah, she's the Goddess of the Underworld, harbinger of all things evil and deadly, yadda, yadda . . . but she's also crazy fun! While minding her own business in Giza, Egypt, around 3000 BC (give or take a few centuries), she spots the hottest mortal her immortal eyes have ever seen. And he's not just any guy-he's the strong, powerful pharaoh who's fallen madly in love with her. But when he kills her pet unicorn, Cimil vows revenge, even if takes thousands of years to get even.
When Roberto meets Cimil, the king knows she's his soul mate. It isn't just her beautiful eyes or gorgeous body, but the godly power he feels simmering just beneath her fun-loving surface. They were the perfect couple . . . until the dead unicorn thing. Now after four thousand years, Roberto crosses paths with Cimil again, and his love for her is stronger than ever. But can he prove that he can once again be trusted with her heart?

Q&A Between Cimil and Mimi Jean
1. Cimil, rumor has
it that you are trying to end the world.
How do you respond to these allegations?
- Well, that’s just crazy-talk! (And absolutely true.) I
would never try to harm my precious people pets (a HUGE lie), because I am a
deity. I am incapable of doing harm to anyone. (Another HUGE lie.) That said, everything I touch does have a way
of blowing up. (All true.) But it’s not my fault. I swear! (Sad, but true.)
Once you read my story, you will understand. (Not likely, but hey… One can
dream.)
2. Why, exactly, do
you hate clowns?
- Really now. Why does anyone hate clowns? They smile all
the time. It’s just creepy. And wholly unnatural. Nuff said.
3. How did Minky
become your pet? Where did you find her?
- Ah! Now there’s an exciting story. It was about 10,000 B.C., and I was hunting
packs of randy little Leprechauns (to play a prank on Fate; their tiny little
hands freak her out). Anywhoodles, I
came across Minky trying to steal their pot of gold (it’s invisible, just like
Minky). We’ve been best buds ever since.
Cimil, did you just
make up that entire story?
- Yes. Absolutely. Dangit! I’m such a bad liar! The truth is we met at a knitting circle.
You’re not going to
tell us the truth, are you?
- No.
4. Now that your
darkest secrets have been revealed in your novella, Accidentally Cimil, how do
you feel? And do you still plan to smite the writer?
- My secret is such a humdinger, how can I not be
relieved? My only concern is that my
brethren will reject me when they find out. But it’s really not my fault. And
yes, Mimi Jean shall be smote!
So is your dark
secret the reason you lied to your brethren about being clairvoyant when your
true gift is speaking to the dead?
- No. Being clairvoyant just sounded cooler. Don’t get me wrong, talking to dead people,
seeing the world’s future and past through their eyes certainly has its perks,
but half the time they just sit around complaining about being dead. Or losing
at poker. (The dead play lots of poker.)
5. Can you give us a
hint about how the series will end?
- I could tell you, but you’d never believe me. It’s BIG! It
would even shock a Leprechaun and nothing shocks those little bastards. I will tell you this, however; it involves
very hungry hippopotami.
See you in August!
Hugs and many naughty thoughts,
CIMIL (Just…Cimil)
EXCERPT
He closed the gap between us and grabbed me by the
shoulders. I was about to release a surge of light into his hands simply for
the sheer joy of watching him shoot across the room and slam into the wall, but
then I remembered the stupid collar. I was dead in the water.
“I came to tell you something,” he said.
“You may speak.”
I could have sworn I saw actual sparks shoot from his eyes.
Probably no one had ever told him anything other than, “Yes, my king” or “No,
my king” and “Your wish is my command, my king.” Well, soon he’d be just
another soul wondering why he had wasted his life on silly things like wealth
and power.
And why the hell he’d messed with me!
He closed his eyes and took a breath, clamping down whatever
bull crap he had the urge to say. When his dark eyes opened again, he tilted
his head and placed his hand on my cheek. There was flicker of something
almost… endearing within them.
“I came to tell you that I am sorry.” His jaw muscles ticked
as he ground his teeth. “I am sorry for treating you so rudely.”
Wow. Looks like that hurt! “Are you okay? Should I make you
a pot of soothing chamomile tea or call for a healer?”
His eyes shifted a bit. “I am very well. Why do you ask?”
Because you look like you just dropped an egg and have the
worst PMS ever. “I’m guessing that apologizing, especially to a lowly female,
bruised that giant ego of yours. But I’m glad to see you survived. Good stuff.
Now, let me go. I have a planet to rescue.”
His face turned bright red. “I will not release you until
you take the vow.”
I rolled my eyes. “Back to square one, are we?”
He didn’t respond.
Ugh! “A square is one of those shapes that has four—”
“I know what a square is,” he interrupted. “But I do not
understand your expression.”
“Square one is the place where you started—Oh! Never mind,
Chucky,” I said. “What I meant was that you are infuriating! You thought you
could come in here, make an apology—wow! Such a huge sacrifice—and win me over
with that? Really, big boy? You’ve taken me prisoner. You put this collar
around my neck like I’m some sort of pet, and you’ve neutralized my powers. Do
you really think an apology is going to—”
He bent his head and kissed me hard.
My entire body lit up like a bonfire, and the heat from his
bare chest enveloped me in a steamy wave of lust. My knees buckled, and he
immediately wrapped me in his large arms, pulling me close to prevent me from
sliding down to the floor where I conjectured I might end up a squishy little
puddle of fluttering nerves and unflattering spasms of joy.
And for a moment, I swore our bodies melted together. I’d
never felt anything so potent. That dark, empty space inside my chest began to
glow like a warm ember, and the only thing I could think of was stripping away
my tiny little top and skirt. I wanted to feel his heavy body slip and slide
over mine as his hands and mouth roamed every inch of my—
I pushed away and slapped him. Hard.
Rage flickered in his eyes. “What in the gods’ name was
that?”
In my name? In my name? I huffed and then poked him. “No!
You tell me what that was!”
“That was called a kiss.”
