Not the drama of working in a tattoo parlor, which seems to be around every corner. When things get him down, he smiles and cracks a joke. But he\u2019s not the kind of man you cross, or you\u2019ll find yourself at the wrong end of his fists.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Annika Belousov takes everything seriously.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like her job as a reality television producer, given that she typically has something to prove. Or her love life, which is defined by a series of requirements \u2014 affluent, ambitious, accomplished, to name a few. Definitely her family, who worked their whole lives to afford her every opportunity, a sacrifice she doesn\u2019t take lightly.

He\u2019s all wrong \u2014 too crass, too hairy, too un-serious. But it doesn\u2019t take her long to find out there\u2019s more to him than smirks and tattoos. And what she finds could put her career and his heart on the line.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not that Joel cares.

Can&#8217;t forget that. She&#8217;s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She&#8217;s been a wife, though she&#8217;s certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She&#8217;s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she&#8217;s been drinking whiskey.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she&#8217;s not writing, she&#8217;s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/stacihartnovels\/\" target=\"_blank\">FACEBOOK<\/a> |\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/imaquirkybird\" target=\"_blank\">TWITTER<\/a> |\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2dfFP0N\" target=\"_blank\">AMAZON<\/a> |\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/author\/show\/6937037.Staci_Hart\" target=\"_blank\">GOODREADS<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.stacihartnovels.com\" target=\"_blank\">WEBSITE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12527\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/?attachment_id=12527\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/unnamed-1-e1489715251467.png?fit=300%2C116&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"300,116\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Social Butterfly PR Button\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/unnamed-1-e1489715251467.png?fit=150%2C58&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-12527\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.escapistbookblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/unnamed-1.png?resize=300%2C116&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Social Butterfly PR\" width=\"300\" height=\"116\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tonic by Staci Hart NOW AVAILABLE!!
