The Hitmen of Happily Ever After #1
Rose n' John Does
Beauty and the Beast just got a little more gangster...
Though beautiful, bookish, and brilliant, Zémire Amine has always been underestimated as a beat cop on the mean streets of Booklyn.
No, not Brooklyn. Booklyn. Renamed after "they" started to appear. Fairy tale creatures, both sweet and sinister alike.
And now, they're taking over New York City.
Between the seven kingpins of the Magical Minority Mafia buying up Manhattan, the Red Queen and White Queen gang fighting turf wars in Queens, and faes turning tricks on every street corner, Zémire's got her hands full with keeping law and order.
But when dead and mangled bodies start cropping up around the city, marked only by a moniker, "The Beast", Zemire's skills will be pushed to their limits. She is chosen to go into deep cover as a "Belle" and sneak into the lavish ball of the prime suspect: Prince Azor LeClerc.
A fresh fairy tale retelling of Beauty and the Beast! A crime noir / action twist, and of course, sweet romance with a HEA!

Now an intro! ;-)
Sci-fi, Fantasy, & Thriller Novelist. Screenwriter. Film Producer. Globetrotter. Action Junkie. Rebel Ragdoll.
A shameless nerd and bookworm since the age of five, Colby R Rice is the author of Ghosts of Koa, the first novel in The Books of Ezekiel, a dystopian-urban fantasy decalogy. She was an Air Force BRAT born in Bitburg Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany and came to the States at the age of one. Colby bounced around a lot, but finally settled in Los Angeles, where she could at last deal with her addictions to creative entrepreneurship, motorcycles, and traveling.
Now, armed with a mound of animal crackers and gallons of Coca-Cola, Colby takes on fiction writing in a fight to the death!
Current projects include: the second novel in the Books of Ezekiel series, the first novel in a middle grade SFF detective series, the first novel in an adult sci-fi thriller series, development of her first sci-fi thriller film, and the growth of her production house, Rebel Ragdoll.
