I didn't see it coming, didn't realize how different everything would be within the space of a month. I would fall in love with one man, I would kill another, and I would lose my body, my mind, my soul - my freedom to them. I was an operative, a strong woman, someone sent in to save others, but under these two men I became weak - or pretended to be. I didn't like being weak, it angered me. If I had free rein I could cut my masters in two. But I wasn't there for pride, I was there to free those women and to take down the two men who sold them as sex slaves.
Those men needed to be punished
And I would do it
No matter the cost
Or how much I lost
Because I am Rita Kovak
MY MASTERS' NIGHTMARE
Most of my sales are through Amazon.com, but I've also sold via the UK, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Canadian, and Australian sites. Some people prefer to buy separate episodes, while others buy the collections, which holds 5 episodes each (sold both as an eBook and in paperback). The 5 episode collections give me the most profit due to being priced much more than an average book. I have many fans who buy the episodes as soon as they come out, but also some who have told me they are waiting for all 15 to be released. Once the 15th, final episode is released I will be doing some major promotion, which I'm sure will bring in considerably more sales. I am also getting people starting to read the series after they've read a spin-off series called The Santini Brothers (the first book is called RICARDO) which is my biggest seller. Currently, Episode 13 of My Masters' Nightmare is selling the best, along with episodes 11 and 12. Episode 14 is due to be released on November 7.
I have been asked by Spanish and Italian readers to have my books translated. I've even spotted a group of Spanish readers trying to translate it for each other in their desire to read the episodes, since people have described the series as highly addictive.

RITA
I walked into the hotel bar knowing there was a strong chance that I would be drugged and kidnapped by the end of the night. Which was exactly why I was there. And why I’d slipped on the little black dress with two slits up the side, anything to encourage it to happen. I paused to look around the room, aware I was being watched by more than just the men in the bar. Four surveillance cameras were positioned at strategic points, my co-workers watching from outside of the New York hotel, where only the rich and infamous stayed.
A blond man pushed off a barstool and headed for me, his cream-colored Versace suit suggesting he was a cut above the rest of the patrons. He looked familiar, possibly a movie star from one of the many films I didn’t have time to see, my job as a FBI agent all-consuming, which was the way I preferred it, so I didn’t have time to think about my husband. I held up my hand before the man could get a word out, showing him the wedding ring I refused to remove, the diamond encrusted band lovingly designed by my husband, who’d been killed by the very people I was going to take down.
To my surprise the man bowed, then returned to his seat, allowing me to get back to my work. My gaze moved to the end of the bar, where I hoped Jagger D’Angelo was still sitting—my predator, my target, the bait for unsuspecting women. And he was the perfect bait, the man so beautiful he could’ve stepped right out of a Versace catalogue, the suit looking even better on him than the actor who’d approached me, the light material covering him a tease to the senses. The mob certainly had picked well, because Jagger was a work of art.
