Charmaine loves to write dark and edgy romance that will melt both your e-reader and your heart.

She's a mom of two teenagers, an adorable dog, and a dominant cat. Her country of birth is South Africa where many of her stories play off. Her French husband kidnapped her to the south of France where she currently lives with her family.

When she's not writing, you'll find her in the kitchen baking cakes or in the gym lifting weights (because ... all those cakes!).

Thank you so much for your beautiful compliment, Katlyn. :-) I'm glad you enjoyed the story.

For the moment, I haven't planned to continue Gabriel and Valentina's story, but I am working on something new (to be revealed in the near future). If you'd like an email notification when I reveal my next book you can subscribe to my newsletter at http://charmainepauls.com/subscribe/ as this is the best way to be sure you won't miss a new book message. Oh, and I also have a Facebook group where I offer ARCs for review, which you can find here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/11207...

I look forward to staying in touch! (less)
