Fatal Jealousy
Twins Ellsa and Ellie are completely different in character,
personality, taste and interests. Apart from the striking resemblance to each
other, they share the one thing siblings shouldn’t…. the same taste in men.
They keep falling for the same man, creating a quiet rivalry
between them. Determined not to let a man come between them ever again, Ellie
and Ellsa agree to stay away from each others relationships. But when they meet
Dale Carson, an FBI agent and a bachelor, their love lives are turned upside
down.
But they aren’t the only ones taken by the rogue. His
partner and long time lover, Gwen Johansson, also called dibs.
Carson is interested
in only one of them. He is pulled by Ellie’s passion for love and art, and most
importantly, him. What starts as a sexual chase, ends with his permanent
retirement from bachelorhood.
But their love story is not a smooth one.
Carson’s day job comes knocking on his front door and before
he knows it, his whole world is ripped apart.
Out of all the
possible suspects, Ellie has the most evidence stacked up against her. She is
implicated in the brutal murders of her ex-boyfriends, and Carson is faced with
the horror of arresting the love of his life. With two suspects of his own, he
is convinced she is being set up, but he has no way of proving it.
Bio for Christina OW:
I love reading novels
that take me on a ride of wild emotions. Books
have always been an escape for me, for a few hours I love to live the
lives of characters I grow to cherish and admire.
I’ve always had an active imagination and because of it I’ve lived in
my head more than I have been in the outside world. I’ve always
imagined scenarios and wondered how it would turn out in the end, and
what kind of emotions it would invoke.
Ii began writing down the many stories in my head in 2010.

Writing was never a
career path for me it was just a release as
fashion design is my true passion, and now writing has become a vital
part of me and my family as my twin sister (M.O.) is also a writer.

Excerpt from Fatal Jealousy:
“Hi.”
Ellsa
turned to the man. He was one of the few men she liked at this thing. Who knew
speed dating was so boring. If they’d thrown in a few rich men then she’d have
something to talk to them about. She didn’t care about their children, ex-wives
and their pathetic struggle to amount to something. She wasn’t a shrink!
These
guys were more Ellie’s speed. She didn’t care what the guy had, just the man’s
character. For Ellsa, if she couldn’t have love, she had no problem with the
bank account. Love had never been kind to her.
But
this guy seemed to have both. “Hi.”
He
smiled shyly, “Hi. My name is Elvis Banks.”
Banks? Cliché
but I can live with that. “I remember. I’m Ellsa Jabari.” She said
flirtatiously.
“Would
you like some more wine?” He offered nervously.
The
man had the looks and the money to back it, but he had no presence. He was
completely unsure of himself and probably easy to manipulate. She smiled, penthouse here I come! “No. I’m good. So
how may I help you?”
He
smiled, “You could write down a phone number for me.”
Ellsa
pulled out her business card, “I hope this is your way of asking me out on a
date?”
He
took the card and glanced at it, “Actually I was hoping you’d give me your
sister’s number.” He turned to where she was. She was holding a bottle of beer
and laughing with the bartender. “She wouldn’t give it to me.”
Ellsa
turned away from him, beyond annoyed! “Too bad, I don’t have it.”
