... Read moreHey everyone, it's Toree Hill here again! You know, writing 'Veronica Steele' has truly been a journey of passion, a real 'dream job' come to life, as my Lemon8 profile often says. When I first conceived of Veronica's story, I knew I wanted to dive deep into the messy, exhilarating world of forbidden love and the kind of corporate scandals that make headlines. My goal was to create a romantic drama so intense, it would keep you guessing until the very last page. For those of you who gravitate towards stories with high stakes and morally gray characters, 'Veronica Steele' is definitely going to captivate you. Imagine a brilliant, no-nonsense professional Fixer, someone whose entire career is built on making other people's problems disappear – especially when those problems involve scandalous affairs or corporate misdeeds. Now, picture her falling head over heels for a man who is not only her client but also married, and a high-profile hospital director at that! The irony, the tension, the sheer audacity of it all was something I absolutely loved exploring. The 'scandalous' element in 'Veronica Steele' isn't just about a secret affair; it's about the ripple effect it creates. How does Veronica, a master of damage control, navigate her own personal crisis when her heart is involved? What happens when the lines between professional duty and personal desire blur, threatening to expose not just a forbidden romance, but potentially ruin careers and reputations? I wanted to write a story that delves into the psychological toll of keeping a monumental secret, the power dynamics at play in the corporate world, and the explosive consequences when those two worlds collide. Readers have asked me what kind of 'twists' they can expect, and while I can't give everything away, I can promise that Veronica's journey is far from straightforward. There are moments of intense passion, heartbreaking betrayals, and unexpected alliances that will make you question everything you thought you knew about the characters. It's a roller coaster of emotions, designed to leave you breathless. If you've ever wondered about the hidden lives behind polished facades, or the compromises people make for love and power, this book offers a raw, unfiltered look. Crafting the steamy scenes and the emotional depth of Veronica's relationships was particularly challenging but rewarding. I aimed for authenticity, showing the vulnerability and strength required to pursue a love that society deems 'wrong.' It's not just about the physical attraction; it's about the undeniable connection that defies logic and societal expectations, forcing characters to confront their deepest desires and fears. So, if you're ready for a book that combines the intrigue of 'Scandal' with the heart-pounding passion of a truly forbidden romance, pick up 'Veronica Steele.' I poured my heart into every page, and I truly hope you enjoy getting lost in Veronica's world as much as I did creating it. Let me know what you think when you read it – I'd love to hear your thoughts on Veronica's choices!

Missy Elliott was the ENTIRE Show
I fear that Missy and Karol G might’ve been the crux of the entire show. Those two embodied what it means to be a performer, a woman, and at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The show was much better this year, but it still wasn’t like the classic show. #VictoriasSecret #AsTheWretched
