The Darker Side of Valentine's Day

I'm Ericka Scott and I write seductive suspense. often my writing focuses on the dark side of life. Murder, mayhem, magick, ghosts, goblins, and even a zombie or two, they are all fodder to my imagination and my keyboard. I throw in a liberal dose of romance and mostly happily ever after endings, and ta-da.

But sometimes....sometimes the endings aren't so simple. Which got me to thinking about Valentine's Day. When I was single, I dreaded Valentine's Day because I didn't have a partner. But that yearly visit from Cupid isn't only dreaded by singletons, but also by those unhappily married. Talk about a double whammy. Which gave me the inspiration for this dark little tale.

Take a peek at how the men of one family solve Cupid's mistakes in A Family Tradition.




Ericka Scott is a multi-published, bestselling author of seductive suspense. She's written stories for as long as she can remember and reads anything under the sun (including the back of cereal boxes in a pinch). She got hooked on romantic suspense in her college days, when reading anything but a textbook was a guilty pleasure. Now, when she’s not chauffeuring children around, wishing she had more than 24 hours in a day, or lurking at the library, she’s spinning her own web of fantasy and penning tales of seduction and suspense. She currently lives in Southern California with her husband and three children.
