Please someone stop me from buying this.

I’m publishing a book!

A little over a year ago, I finished writing a story about a mobster and a strip club owner called Takes Two to Tango. I really enjoyed creating it and enough people seemed to enjoy reading it to give me the crazy idea that I should polish it up and publish this thing. Well, it’s happening.

I’ve spent months making edits, fleshing out the story, and planning out my publishing journey. About once a week I try to talk myself out of it. The imposter syndrome is real. But I’m learning so much and I’m proud of how far I’ve come.

So I’m making it official! The book will be published under the title A Piece of the Action. I don’t know exactly when or where that’s happening yet but this is the accountability post. I could really use all of the support I can get. 

I’d love to tell you more about the book but also about what I’m doing to make this a reality. (Ask away, kids!) Until then, here is the blurb:

Esther Goldman has turned her deadbeat father’s struggling strip club into a thriving business, built back from the brink of bankruptcy through her hard work and tough love. 1977 isn’t the easiest time to be a female entrepreneur, but Esther’s life revolves around the club and its staff. Unfortunately, success has earned Esther some unwanted attention from the most powerful mafioso in the city, Victor Morales.

Victor isn’t used to being told ‘no’ but Esther refuses to give up any of her business without a fight. He’s equally infuriated and fascinated by this woman who won’t give him the respect he’s due. Yet bringing her to heel proves to be more difficult than he first expected. While Esther tries to protect her club, she finds herself drawn into the criminal world and closer to the man who could ruin everything she’s built. 

I can’t wait to hear what you guys think!

I want to post book stuff but I’m convinced nobody cares
