Thanks to Cheryl Castings, who suggested the name Matthew Bennett in a “Name a character” contest I ran through my Web site.
Dear Reader,
My interest in writing an ex-rock-star hero came about through watching a couple of TV documentaries, including “Heavy-the History of Metal.” I expected grunts and expletives; what I heard were articulate, clever and often well-educated men looking back over extraordinary achievements in music.
Alice Cooper, Johnny Rotten…great guys.
A lot of them had been through the mill with drugs, alcohol and relationships, but those who’d come out the other side were bad boys made good. Still with that self-deprecating humor and world-weary twinkle that make rogues so irresistible to romance readers.
Another profession that often gets stereotyped is the librarian. What fun, I thought, to put these two together. Drop by my Web site, www.karinabliss.com, and tell me if you thought so, too.
Happy reading.
