About the book:
THE HERMIT Annie Catrel, social media expert
extraordinaire at Davidson & Croft Media and clandestine celebrity
blogger, can make anyone shine in the court of public opinion. She is the
Socialmedialite, anonymous creator of New York’s Finest and the internet’s
darling. Virtual reality is Annie’s forte, but actual reality? Not so much.
THE HOOKER Ronan Fitzpatrick, aka the best
hooker the world of rugby has seen in decades, despises the media—social or
otherwise. The press has spun a web of lies depicting him as rugby’s wild and
reckless bad boy. Suspended from his team, Ronan has come to Manhattan to
escape the drama, lay low, fly under the radar. Only, Ronan isn’t easy to
overlook, and he can’t escape the notice of the Socialmedialite…
THE PLAN When Ronan is sent to Davidson
& Croft Media to reshape his public image, he never expects to cross
paths with shy but beautiful Annie, nor does he expect his fierce attraction to
her. He couldn’t be happier when her boss suggests pairing them together. What
lengths will Annie take to keep her virtual identity concealed? And what
happens when the hooker discovers who the hermit really is?

and the Hermit is a collaboration between authors L.H. Cosway and Penny Reid, it

About
Penny Reid
SEX! It all started with sex, between my parents.
Personally I don’t like thinking about it, but whatever works for you is a-ok
with me. No judgment. The sex happened in California and much of my life also
occurred in that state until I moved from the land of nuts (almonds), wine,
silicon… boobs, and heavy traffic to the southeast US. Like most writers I like
to write, but let’s get back to sex. Eventually I married and gave birth to 2
small people-children (boy-6, girl-4 as of this writing).

By day I’m a biomedical researcher with focus on rare
diseases. By night I’m a knitter, sewer, lino block carver, fabric printer,
soap maker, and general crafter. By the wee hours of the morning or when I’m
intoxicated I love to listen to the voices in my head and let them tell me
stories. I hope you enjoy their stories.
