Alexandrea Weis
(Secret Brokers, #1)
Published by: Vesuvian Books
Publication date: April 7th 2020
Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense, Thriller

Dallas August runs a dangerous business—an organization of elite spies for hire.

The secrets trade.

Nothing is off limits, and no price is too high.

When asked to uncover what recluse Gwen Marsh knows about a Mafia kingpin’s death, Dallas poses as a bodyguard to get close to his target, but the stubborn Asian beauty wants nothing to do with him. As the FBI and the Mafia close in, danger drives them together, but can he protect Gwen, or will Dallas be the one risking everything to discover what she is really hiding?

Dallas August is about to find out how dangerous life can be as one of the Secret Brokers.

Once you are in, there is no turning back.

INTERVIEW

 

  1. What is on your nightstand?
    Nothing but my phone and a lamp. I don’t keep books there. I have a bookshelf close to my bed.

 

  1. What author would you totally fan?
    Probably a lot of authors who are already dead, like Charles Dickens, Edgar Allen Poe, Ernest Hemingway, and Ina Fleming. I would love to pick their brains

 

  1. What makes you cringe?
    Writers who do not research enough. I am an RN, I taught nursing and some of the medical romance and thriller novels I read are more comical than serious to me. I believe research is essential to writing a good story.

 

  1. Do you obsessively plot out each point or just go with the flow?
    Go with the flow. It comes as I write. I never plot.

 

  1. Is there a word you love to use?
    Evolve. It can say so many things about a character on many different levels.
