I think that’s the only party of this book that has really remained the same. (And if you sign up for my Newsletter on the previous page, you’ll get The Taste of You straight to your email inbox).
With that said, thank you so much for giving Power Play a shot (hehe, pun intended), and more importantly, thank you for giving me a shot, too.
Writing is an interesting thing. I’ve published material on medieval prostitution in England and in Italy, prostitution in 19th century New Orleans (oh, God, this is becoming a trend), ghosts and hauntings across America…but, in my heart, romance is where it’s at. Historical. Paranormal. Contemporary. If there’s smooching and flirting and hot guys, I’m there. There’s nothing better than writing that first kiss or that first realization of, “whoa, hold on here, is it you I’ve been looking for this whole time?”
Power Play is my debut novella-turned-pretty-much-novel, and I truly hope that you’ll stick around for more books and more fun romances.
My hope is that this Dear Fabulous Reader space will become a diary of sorts from me to you, so that we can grow together with each book. Without you, my manuscripts would simply sit on my desktop unread.
Now, before we (read: I) get all sappy up in here, lemme just say: I hope I’ll see you next time, Fabulous Reader.
Much love,
Maria
Would You Leave A Review?
Did you enjoy Power Play?
If you didn’t….Please don’t tell me ;)
If you did, it would mean the world to me if you might consider leaving a review on Amazon. As an independent author, I love to know that people enjoyed my work! But also as an independent author, I don’t have the push of a big publishing house behind me, like Avon Romance.
When Amazon sees that an author’s book is getting more reviews, Amazon then works in my favor by making their super-secret algorithms help me to reach new readers like you, who may never have heard of me otherwise.
If you’re up to it, you can scroll to the back of this book, where Amazon will give you the option to review.
Again, thank you so much for even considering it! As I like to say, if I could give you gold and unicorns I would, but all I can do is give you more sexy heroes :)

About the Author
Maria Luis is the author of contemporary romances, though she has a few completed historical romances hiding in the cobwebs of her desktop.
When she’s not writing about strong men and the sassy women who sweep them off their feet, Maria is a historian who specializes in medieval England and 19th century New Orleans. What do the two eras have in common, you ask? Nothing except for disease, scandalous activities, and crime — Maria’s favorite historical topics.
Maria currently lives in New Orleans with her better half, where she can generally be found hiking with her dogs, Zeus and Athena, kayaking in Louisiana’s intercostal waterways or curled up on the couch with a good book.
