Date Published: February 5, 2015
Twenty-one year old Liliana Dapprima was living her life exactly how she planned. She had an amazing job as an interior designer and lived with her best friend Violet in Toronto. But, everything changes when her father forces her to move to New Jersey to re-design his businesses in New York City. Upon her arrival in New Jersey, she finds out she must live with her old flame, Emilio Amante, who had completely tore apart her heart.
She must learn to live alongside Emilio as she tries to start a new relationship with the new man in her life, Lucas. And to make matters even more complicated, Emilio is Lucas’ boss.
Dealing with a love triangle is hard enough, but then Lily must also deal with secrets from and about her family. She is constantly lied to and when she gets attacked multiple times by a rival family, she wants answers and will go to any extent to get them.
Liliana has been living in a world where everyone and everything is not what it seems.
What will happen when tragedy strikes and secrets are revealed?
#1 – Do You See Writing as a Career? Of course we would love
for it to be, and we are hoping one day that it might be, but for now we do it
for the love of writing.
#2 – What was the Hardest Part of Your Writing Process? The
hardest part for us, as co-authors, was making sure the reader couldn’t tell
the difference between our writing. We both would write certain chapters, and
we both have different writing styles, so making sure everything came together
cohesively was tough.
#3 – Did you have any One Person Who Helped You Out with
Your Writing Outside of Your Family? Yes, we had a friend named Patsy. She read
the first thirteen chapters of Deceptive,
before it was Deceptive, and she
encouraged us to finish it. Patsy gave us advice along the way, helped point
out holes in the story, and taught us a better way to evaluate it.
#4 – What is next for your writing? Right now, we are
writing the final book in the Deceptive Series. It’s estimated to be released winter
2016. We are super excited to have the entire series come together and finish
Liliana’s journey. After we finish the Deceptive Series, we plan to write solo
for a while.
#5 – Do you have an addiction to reading as well as writing?
If so, what are you currently reading? Yes we both have major addictions to
reading as well as writing. Melai is notorious for reading when she is supposed
to be writing, and sometimes Leigh has to get her back on track. Currently,
Melai is reading The Consolation Duet by Corinne Michaels, and Leigh is reading
The Slater Brothers series by L.A. Casey
