SEQUEL TO ZIA
Now that INAMORATA'S PASSAGE has been released, I thought I would answer a few questions people have had concerning the ZIA trilogy. Most of you want to know if both Kim and Kiel return in the sequel, and the answer is yes (although Kim's presence is greatly diminished due to the new setting - Kiel's world.) But if you are Team Kim, don't worry, he'll be back with a vengeance in the final book - even though the relationship between Zia and Kiel ignites with a fevered intimacy in this new sequel.
"Zia closed her eyes, and let her head drop back onto Kiel’s shoulder. Her fingers guided his
pleasured hands, their movements synchronized with the pounding rain.
She reached behind her back, clutching each side of his hips and pulling his body to hers. Slowly, Zia moved one hand to the front of his waistband, allowing it to slide gently downward, the distant thunder applauding her gesture."
The second question I always get is why I chose to make the two male protagonists in my novel Asian. And to that, I say "Why not? " With the ever growing popularity of K-Pop/K-Dramas in America, I felt it was time for western females to finally have a romantic fantasy featuring the types of young men they...well...fantasize about. And that is South Koreans.
I had a reader want to know if I based my characters' appearances on any particular Korean stars, and I told her yes. Then I had another young lady ask me to be even more specific, so here goes. If you are reading ZIA or IP and need a visual for Kim or Kiel (pronounced Kyle) check out these photo mash-ups, and I think you'll have a very good idea - plus some pretty sweet, candy-coated dreams!

Very Nice Blog About ZIA
Brianna from Kentucky had a very nice mention about ZIA in her blog at you-aint-asian.blogspot.com You Ain't Asian. I really appreciate her positive comments, and if you enjoy K-Pop, K-Dramas and the like, you will definitely want to follow her blog. Someone else started a tumblr for ZIA at http://ziabyterrylovett.tumblr.com/, so if whoever it was is reading this, thank you! I didn't even know what a tumblr was! And, at Amazon.com, a reader has started a ZIA discussion group. It can be found by scrolling down past the reviews. Thanks to all these people for "finding" ZIA and helping get the word out!!!
