Creating Dark Romance Characters And Getting Started

Hi everyone! I hope you're all safe and well in these crazy times. With the lockdown and being shut in, I finally got my act together and learned to improve my video making. The thing is, when I got it figured out, I wasn't sure what to talk about! So I asked on Facebook and CJ asked, how you get your ideas?   Therefore, here we go! Here's how I went about creating Spirit and Coop and kicking off Ruthless Sinner, the 6th Zeta Cartel novel by AJ Adams. Please do drop in and see me on FB. You can find me here. Go straight here to see Ruthless Sinner by AJ Adams on Amazon.

Ruthless Sinner, the latest Zeta cartel novel, drops on 29th May 2020

I hope you're all well and safe in these difficult times. We've been in lockdown in Malaysia for 57 days now. Amazingly, I haven't killed my husband yet and he hasn't killed me.   We're watching ancient black and white films, and the cats are keeping us on our toes in terms of Tummy Rubs and Treats. BUT I'm writing because it's ready! Ruthless Sinner, the latest Zeta cartel novel, will go live on Friday 29 th May 2020. Ruthless Sinner will be on KU. If you want to buy it, you get the special low price of 99 cents. <3 Please do share with your friends! In 24 hours, I put it up to $1.99. The day it goes live, the price will be $2.99. As always, I'm looking for help to get the word out. Could you please share the book link on your social media?   I do hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. I think Coop is my new favourite hero 😊 Otherwise, enjoy and hope to see you all soon. Hugs, Ellen Ruth...

When he gets to his victim, we see he is so filled with pain from loss that he has overloaded. He is human, but he is not in control. He is insane from grief. Then, as he starts his murder, evil consumes him. Rip calls it his monster. It rushes in and by the end of the first chapter the human part of Rip has been burnt out completely.
