I was challenged to do the #ALSIceBucketChallenge by my good friend and best selling author Sharon Hamilton and boy was it COLD! It's for a good cause!

Spotlighting Author Kallypso Masters!!
Last year I found a great book on Amazon and started looking for more information about the author. I started talking to Kallypso Masters
and asked to pass out bookmarks and such for her since I wanted to share about her series. I joined her Street Team not long after and I've had the privilege to get to know her a bit more.
Kallypso is a very kind woman that enjoys talking to her fans and treats them like life long friends. She spends time with her Street Team and listens to everyone's ideas. She's down to earth.
Her books are for sale at Amazon, here is a link to her page: http://www.amazon.com/Kallypso-Masters/e/B007WUQPOQ/ref=sr_tc_2_0?qid=1407386020&sr=8-2-ent
Her books are in both English and Spanish. The covers have recently been redone and look amazing! I hope you enjoy her work as much as I do!
This is the first book in her Rescue Me Saga! Master at Arms and Nobody's Angel.
Families aren't always blood related. If you are looking for a series with gritty, realistic characters who will get under your skin and never let go and you have an open mind about alternate lifestyles, then look no further than the eye-opening Rescue Me Saga by USA Today Bestselling Author Kallypso Masters.
PRAISE BY READERS:
Ms. Masters shows in detail the stress and fears these men and women experience throughout their lives. As a spouse of a military veteran who suffers from PTSD I could relate to all of the characters in this beginning story and the following stories that are currently available…. But, warning…keep a box of tissues handy. I cried during each of the stories because I could see my husband’s experience in each of them. This is a series you don’t want to pass up! (Teresa Hughes, Review)

I found myself getting frustrated in the book, but not by anything the author did. Kallypso does a wonderful job of showing who her characters are. So any frustrating feelings I had was strictly towards a character who was simply being human and making a bad choice. Kallypso’s writing is very real—our heroes and heroines are human beings who make mistakes and bad decisions, who can be weak and vulnerable, or strong (sometimes TOO strong). (Anonymous)

NOBODY’S ANGEL is intensely sensual. While BDSM romance is not exactly my genre of choice, it seems to be handled quite well in this story, with an emphasis on safety and trust and not just kink. (Bobby, Book Wenches)
CONTENT WARNING: Readers with a history of abuse are warned that, due to the emotional way in which the author presents the subject matter (past and present), the books might cause triggers while reading. Please read the Author's Notes at the beginnings of each book before reading further. The books in this saga are intended for mature adult readers who are not offended by profanity and graphic sex scenes. Note, however, that this saga is NOT erotica. The primary focus is on the development of the characters and the unfolding of their life stories.
DESCRIPTION:
MASTERS AT ARMS begins the journey of three men, each on a quest for honor, acceptance, and to ease his unspoken pain. Their paths cross at one of the darkest points in their lives. As they try to come to terms with the aftermath--forging an unbreakable bond--will they ever truly become masters of their own fates? Or would fate become master of them?
NOBODY'S ANGEL: Marc d’Alessio might co-own a private kink club with his fellow military veterans, Adam and Damian, but he keeps all women at a distance. When Marc rescues Angelina Giardano from a disastrous first experience at his club, however, an uncharacteristic attraction leaves him torn between his safe, but lonely world, and a possible future with his angel.
Angelina leaves the club behind only to have her dreams plagued by the Italian angel in a wolf mask who rescued her. When she meets Marc at a bar in her hometown, she can’t shake the feeling she knows him, but has no idea why he reminds her of her angel. While trying to protect Angelina from her abusive ex, though, Marc once again finds her at the Masters at Arms Club where she turns his safe, controlled world upside down.
ABOUT THE RESCUE ME SAGA: The books in the ongoing Rescue Me Saga are not stand-alone stories and should be read in order, beginning with the books in this volume. Characters will recur in later books to deal with old and new issues in their lives as the saga continues, and each book builds upon all previous ones. Sometimes main characters even need another book to help resolve deep-seated issues affecting their relationships.
BONUS MATERIAL in this version: Kallypso Masters has added the PLAYLIST of music that inspired her as she wrote about the first three couples mentioned in this combined volume, as well as a GLOSSARY OF TERMS and a CAST OF CHARACTERS in these books in the saga.
You can get it free for the Kindle at:

Writing
Hey y'all.
I've been busy writing the next book in my Fairytale Series. It's called Lucky Star. It will still feature the characters from Buy Me A Rose, but it will also introduce a few new characters such as Bell and Pan as well as Hook and Wendy. And were you wondering what the Witch Queen Windy has in store for our fiery Rose? You'll just have to wait and see when it's released.
