Every woman wants me–except the one
I sing for.
Seattle shakes with anticipation:
they call it the concert of the year. They say girls are getting pregnant just
thinking about my band being in town.
But when you love a girl, you don’t
leave her with nothing but a ring and a promise. Any man with half a brain
should know.
So what did I expect my girl would
do when she saw me again?
Well, for starters, she loathes our
music. Particularly the song I wrote about her.
When I sing it, the stadium is in an
uproar. Thousands of fans scream my name like I’m a god–but yeah, not her.
Crystal clear: the girl’s not happy to see me.
Black hair, black boots, a bad
attitude, that’s her — Pandora Stone is a freaking man-eater and she’s out for
my blood.
That’s alright.
Let her come at me. Because I’m out
for her heart and, this time, there’s no way she can stop me.

WRITING RIPPED
By Katy Evans
RIPPED – I’m so excited to be
sharing with everyone RIPPED, Real series book #5! J
RIPPED began with Pandora,
Brooke (Real, Mine and Remy) and Melanie’s (Rogue) goth friend. She’s such a
wounded warrior and so bitter that I was completely hooked wanting to know—what
happened? What made her like this? Why does she hate men so much?
And that’s how I met her man,
Mackenna Jones.
He’s back in Seattle for the
concert of the year, and Pandora hates him so much, she is still so stuck in
the past for having loved (and lost) him when she was young, she’s determined
to go pay him a visit and give him a little something to remember her by.
Nothing nice, I assure you.
And that’s where RIPPED
totally exploded for me. It’s one of those books where I couldn’t stop writing
even for a second. It seemed like I just opened Pandora’s box of secrets and
they came spilling out, one after the other. Memories, what truly happened in
her eyes, in his eyes, their first kiss (sigh) and so much more. Their past is
tumultuous and passionate and their present, when they reunite again, is just
as passionate and rocky. They have a long way to go to their HEA but, though
Pandora doesn’t feel she deserves it and has never let herself want it,
Mackenna has another plan to conquer back his girl.
What I love about this couple
in particular is how equal they seem—the push and the pull always kept me
guessing as to who had control of the situation, sometimes Pandora had Mackenna
by the pants, and plenty of others it was Mackenna who kept getting the upper
hand, knowing each and every one of Pandora’s weaknesses (including that he is the
main one.)
He is the boy she could never
forget.
She is the girl no other girl
has ever compared.
Things are about to get RIPPED
during Mackenna’s concert tour when his manager thinks it brilliant to force
Pandora to tag along. J
