Welcome the wonderful Patricia Macias...
My name is Patricia T. Macias. I was born in San
Jose, California. I graduated from the University of Phoenix with a dual
Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management/Administration. I currently
live in Sacramento, California with my husband and children. My family is my
pride and joy. I also enjoy spending quality time with family and friends.
I always dreamed of writing romance novels. I am
delighted to be achieving my dream. I wanted to write since I was in
elementary. I loved reading about the romance, the heroes, and lovely
ladies.
I do have a day job. I love to write after work
and on weekends. All my characters are
my new best friends. I love writing
about my new friends' issues and love life. They're always talking and living
in my mind and dreams.
My favorite reads are romance and paranormal
books. I love reviewing the books I have read with my friends and family.
I truly enjoy blogging,
Pinterest, and Facebook. I love meeting and getting to know all of the authors,
bloggers, and readers.
Tell us about your latest book.

Hmmm, mi primo is finally realizing that Danni is
always en casa. He doesn’t have a clue when and where she sees her novio. After
all of these years, la familia is finally wondering about Danni’s novio. This
is unreal. What if her novio was a jerk that had her really controlled, and
they didn’t even know anything about him.
Yeah, I think that we need to start planning our
escape before someone figures out it’s me. I know that the entire familia will
be pissed off at us and most likely it will be worse for me since I’m el hombre.
Damn it, I need to pray that Dios will help us out.
Si, after being together all of this time, I will die if we’re forced to stay
apart. I know that mi Danni es mi vida, es mi mujer, contemplates Nick.

“Si, mi hija, yo lo se, you have made me tan feliz.
Mi Nicolas is being foolish. I can explain todo. Mi hija, I can see that
you have both suffered. Daniella, why have you kept tu amor and tu boda
from la familia? Is it because your primos?” asks Tia Maria.
“Si, Tia, we couldn't stop from feeling
this amor. We tried to ignore it, but as we got older, our amor got
stronger,” says Danni with tears. “It has been really painful.”
“Oh mi niña, you have suffered so much, and for no
reason. You should have told me, us. I could have……..
(says Tia Maria, Nicolas mama).

What
are you currently working on, or what’s on the horizon?
Ricardo Emmanuel De La Cruz is the sexy
alpha playboy of la familia and is an attorney.
He’s one of the managers in the
familia’s company. He’s constantly having fun with all of the chicas that chase
him. They have been chasing him his
entire life.
Ricky literally runs into Jacqueline
Cortez in the hallway. She’s a bella, shy, and quiet certified public
accountant that works for la familia.
Jacqueline turns his world upside down.
Jacqueline Cortez has been in love with Ricardo her
entire life. She never dreamed that running into him will unleash the amor that
she locked up a long time ago. Will she
be able to outrun Ricardo and avoid being his next conquest? How long can
Jacqueline resist Ricardo’s attention? Is she doomed to fall under his
enchantment and into his waiting arms?
Excerpt
Ricky is in a hurry getting out of his
carro, damn it I’m almost out of time. We
have a meeting with the new client and I have to make sure that the contracts
are correct before I turn them over for Jose Enrique’s review. Si I hate
running behind schedule and I’m always on it. I don’t usually arrive so early
at the office, thinks Ricky grabbing his portfolio from his carro.
Ricky strides into the hall to get the
elevator, missing it, watching the doors close. He stops in shock, damn it,
that’s the hermosa muneca from yesterday, thinks Ricky standing, watching her
just before the doors close.
Wow, I totally missed an opportunity to talk to the muneca. How can I
get to know her? I know that she recognizes me. She is looking at me with
shock. Yeah, she didn’t expect to see me and I sure as hell didn’t expect to
see her. I need to talk to her outside
of the building. I don’t want to cause any issues with la familia’s company
employees, ponders Ricky impatiently waiting for
the elevator to come down. I know that
she works here, but a lot of good that does me. My body won’t calm down, I’m
totally awake now. I don’t know what it is about her that provokes these
amazing overwhelming reactions.
What
do you do when you’re not writing?
I have a full time job and also spend time
with my family.
