Exploring Irresitible: October release with Torrid WCP
Whenever I'm not researching or writing, I'm traveling--Europe, North America and the Caribbean . And I love to explore---beaches, the Mayan ruins and century-old Spanish cities.
At one time I considered a career as an artist. My art has been in exhibits and I've sold both drawings and paintings. In contrast to my quiet side, I'm also an advanced belt in karate and weaponry. Latin dancing and scuba diving are my other interests.
Fluent in German and English, I have a smattering of French and am presently learning Spanish.
As well as being a teacher for many years, I had careers in the hotel and travel industries. Indulging my creative passion at every opportunity, I now write mystery-romance, sensuous romance and am starting a paranormal romance. Check out my blogs on myspace and request me. http://www.myspace.com/anastasia_amor
I'm author of the ADIE STURM SERIES.
My action-packed release A Corpse for Cozumel, is the first book in a murder mystery series. It tingles with romance as the plot twists and turns from the cold of Canada to the hot, moist breeze of Cozumel -- a place where dreams are made reality and fantasies come true. Adie Sturm follows her instincts when it comes to men and murder. She's the strong heroine you've been waiting for. Like me, she's an advanced belt in karate. Don't get me wrong ... she's a sultry lady who attracts men like magic but she's a woman with heart.
So why set my series in Cozumel? It's more than turquoise surf lapping on white powdery beaches. It's the home of the Mayan fertility goddess -- Ixchel. Does that conjure up images? Luckily for us, the Mayans discovered chocolate. Bite in. Adie Sturm would. Experience the release of endorphins and the pleasure principal with Adie when she meets two sinfully delicious hotties - like chocolate.
Days of the Dead (May release) and The Curse of the Carnaval (coming soon) are the suspenseful continuation of Adie Sturm's adventure with murder and romance.
My books are being released in e-format and print by Whiskey Creek Press.

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”
Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."
Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"
Book Synopsis:
The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.
Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.
The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.
My name? It came of laziness, really. I used to work in a warehouse where I did all the shipping and receiving. I signed my name all day long... my given name is Shannon. I got lazy and 'Shannon' turned in to 'Sha' with a long line after it. One of the gals in the office started calling me 'Shai' and it stuck. Now everyone, including my husband, calls me by that name.
I have a myspace, too, but I haven't been to it in forever. I spend more time on AuthorNation, The Writer's Box and Writer's World. But I'm just getting started so I hope to get to where I'm gleaning what I can from all of the sites.
Anyway, I hope to get a chance to chat more with you.
Greetings! Thank you for the friend add. I find I'm not on Book Place as much as I'd like to be but as I get rolling, I look forward to chatting with you more.
Was wondering if you'd be interested in reading my new novel, Dirty Little Angels, and posting your thoughts on your blog (or on Amazon.com). If you're interested, I'd be more than willing to send you an e-book version by e-mail. Just let me know. You can read a summary at the link below:

You sound like such an awesome person and I wish I could travel to all those places. I hope to get to know you better and see everything you do. I am shocked, so much an artist but then in karate too? I suppose it is its own art.
Darkness lay across the high mountains of Montana, the pale moon painting the scenery with monochrome shades of black and white. Here, from high above, looking down at this part of the world we can see a deep rocky canyon with shear gray walls bui...
