Now that "Just a Bit Wrong" has been published...

Just a Bit Wrong has been finally published, and I can finally resume working on the next book in the series. I'm a little behind the schedule I set for myself. Tristan and Zach’s story took a bit longer to write than I’d thought it would. Just a Bit Confusing was originally intended to be a Christmas release, but now I'm not sure. It is still possible if Ryan stops being so goddamn stubborn.

I would like to release the book in December because there are some tentative plans for a Valentine's Day short story collection/novella about Rutledge & Shawn (from Rutledge's POV) and possibly Xavier & Sage (from Xavier's POV). But if Ryan and Jamie's book isn't published in December, the Valentine's Day novella is unlikely to happen, because I have to start working on Book #6 (I'm so very excited about that book! It's a pretty crazy Stockholm Syndrome love story).

Anyway, I need to stop talking and start working if I hope to finish Book #5. The book is not as fluffy and cute as one might think, despite being about best friends. Ryan and Jamie’s story might actually be the most angst-heavy story of the series (but there are still cuddles, because Jamie needs cuddles and hugs more than any character of the series).

Cescy I think Tristan needs cuddles more than any other character of the series. :) Though I did like James, and I thought he was too much of a sunshine for that to be real.

Mrs. Reader I am so excited and hoping for a December release. I absolutely love your books.

Suze Fields Goodness! I've finished this series and I loved them all! And I though Shawn and Derek would be my favorite, but you just swept me off my feet with Tristan and Zach. Head over heels and the whole shebang! Really, amazing. Wow... Sorry for the blabbering but I'm out of words. ^_^ It was so freaking hot, and I like the extra stuff you put into the story, the way Zach *ehem* handles Tristan when he has it coming, but what really captured me was the way you had to weave the story, their story, and how you brought us to understand Tristan's side.

Absolutely wonderful.

K.A. Loved the new book!! Can't wait for the next book in the series!

K.A. Def need the short story with Rutledge and Shawn...Xavier and Sage!!

I loved the Tristan and Zach book. Absolutely devoured it at work in about an hour. One of your best. I loved the vulnerability of Tristan. So good.


message 8: by Suze (new)

Suze Fields Must agree with Chrisistranger, the way Tristan was depicted was simply beautiful. After Just A Bit Unhealthy I was wondering how would the author manage to make us like someone like Tristan. I was totally sold!


message 9: by Andri (new)

Andri I absolutely loved Tristan & Zach's story Alessandra.
Now I'm back to praying we don't have to wait too long for Ryan and Jamie's story.
After reading your post I'm dying to know more about the 6th book in this amazing series. Can you tell us who the MC are please?

Alessandra Hazard Thanks for all your comments, guys. They're really appreciated.

The main character will be introduced in Ryan and Jamie's book. He's James's friend and the heir of a billionaire. He gets kidnapped and ends up getting too attached to a very hot but cruel Russian mobster(who would make Rutledge seem soft). It's going to be a pretty f*cked up, intense love story.

It depends on many things. Possibly next summer (I hope).

VVivacious Oh my God! I love the direction you are taking for this series and I can't wait and I know I felt the same about this book but I giggled for a straight five minutes when I got my hands on "Just a Bit Wrong".

Andri Alessandra do you have any plans to write Nick's book? The Hardaway brothers are HOT!;)

Right now there are no plans for Nick, but that might change. I try to focus on one book at a time, because otherwise I get too distracted. :)

Monchari S Oh Please...please finish book #5 and give us beautiful Christmas present ❤ m(>_<)m・m(_ _)m (Ryan, would you please just be a good boy for a while?!!)
So that we can get that Valentine's Day short story collection!!
I've been so waiting for more Rutledge & Shawn and Xavier & Sage stories for ages.


message 20: by K.S. (new)

K.S. Morgan Oh my God... why did I read this, how I will sleep from now on! I'm already *dying* for all books that you mentioned. I so want James and Ryan's book, but I want Valentine's Day story collection even more! I'd love to see all of our boys, I miss them all so very much. Please don't forget about them completely!

And Stockholm Syndrome love story? Really? That's like a dream come true to me! I'm obsessed with stories like that, but there are so few of them, and even less of those that are really good. 2016 is going to be very interesting!


message 21: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca Antes I have read every book in the series to date. And so far Gabe and Jared are my favorite couple with Tristan and Zach almost neck and neck. I loved the emotional intensity of Gabe and Jared. I loved how emotionally dependent Gabe was on Jared, and yes I know that isn't necessarily a good thing. But to me it really zinged the heart. With Tristan and Zach, the intensity was completely the opposite. It was all about the sex and it was explosive. But it was nice to see behind Tristan's flirting and snark to what his real character was. I am looking forward to James and Ryan's story. And seeing how or if Tristan tells James that they are brothers.

Readme Honestly, Just a bit twisted is my go to book into between reads. I love the chemistry with Sean and Rutledge. I want to read more about them desperately.

Eve We need ryan and Jamie for Christmas :-P

Jared and Gabriel were my favourites of the series so far... But I have to say Tristan and Zach come really close. I just love closeted footballers romance :-P
