Bella Street Romance Goes Retro

Book 5 of the time-travel romance series Apocalypse Babes is now available. Bite Me continues Seffy and Trent's (affectionately known as Treffy) story: Conspiracy plots thicken like tainted blood, taking a bite out of Treffy's fledgling relationship and casting a dark shadow over ones they thought they could trust.  Now available at Amazon for 99 cents .

She therefore recommends Kettle Chips while reading her runaway bestselling (according to an avid fan in Winnipesaukee) science-fiction romance saga Apocalypse Babe s . Because who doesn't get the munchies after fighting a buttload of zombies or surviving yet another compound conspiracy? Her personal fav? Salt and Pepper. To be even more specific, and to encourage readers to be open-minded to new flavors (and storylines), Bella recommends a certain flavor for each book as follows: The Z Word : New York Cheddar---not that her book is cheesy or anything! The X Factor : Honey Dijon (cuz things get mixed up ...
