Clarissa Cartharn is the author of romance novels such as Captive, Red Collar and the romance thriller/ suspense Jar series. Once an English teacher, she embarked on a law profession before finally realizing it was writing she really wanted to pursue. After almost eight romance novels, each with eclectic themes ranging from angsty Cinderella inspirations to thrillers set in the barren war torn lands of Afghanistan, Clarissa is currently on a journey with her next novel titled CAPTIVE 2: ROYAL HEAT.For free chapters of her romance novel, Affairs & Atonement, please visit:http://doodlenook.blogspot.com/p/affairs-atonement-free-chapters.htmlIf you're on the lookout for free chapters, updates and gifts on her new releases, subscribe to her newsletter:http://facebook.us11.list-manage1.com/subscribe?u=b3f00129ff8108b5159f39975&id=7ec7344dc1Join her also on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ClarissaCartharn?ref=hlTwitter: @ccartharn
