Stranded With A Bad Boy Romance

I've just re-released my short Alexandra Marell story, Setting Him Free . Stranded with a bad boy in desperate need of redemption - it's my favourite theme for romance, both for writing and reading.

And of course, it's a romance so the two people stuck together are exactly what the other needs. This kind of story allows an author to concentrate right down on the emotions and feelings without the distraction of secondary characters. A great variation on the romance genre.
