When I started writing this book, I really had no idea whether or not I'd be able to finish it because I've never written a story involving a threesome before. And I certainly don't have any personal experience with one. So I worried that I wouldn't be able to pull it off. How do you tap into feelings that the characters are experiencing if you've never experienced the same thing yourself in real life? 

But then I thought about all of those books written about exploring deep space or dystopian novels or zombies and paranormal. Authors don't have any real life experiences when writing those stories either. That's what our imagination is for, right?

So why did I write a story about a menage? Because I wanted to challenge myself to write something that is completely outside of my comfort zone just to see what would happen. I dug deep to try and find a scenario where I would buy into the idea of a threesome on a long term basis. I didn't want this to be a story where a couple engages a third party for a night of fun. Oh no, that would be too easy. My goal from the onset was to convince people like me - who only engage in a monogamous relationship - that true love can exist in a polyamory relationship. 

This story took off and flew into a direction I really didn't anticipate. I've never written a book with a suspense element, but Make Me Whole is full of suspense and angst. This story ripped my heart out and made me bawl. In fact, I told myself I would never write such an angst filled story again because it was so emotionally draining. But I probably will - given a little more time. 

I sincerely hope that everyone will pick this story up. It's not your typical erotic romance. 

Happy Reading!
