Passion & Suspense from Chelle Cordero

AN ACT OF DOMESTIC ABUSE OCCURS EVERY 12 SECONDS IN THE U.S.

It wasn’t my intention to present a classic case of Domestic Abuse when I wrote Karma Visited, but Annie Furman is in a BAD marriage where her husband keeps her from friends and family, monitors her moves, doles out only enough money to purchase groceries, berates her verbally, and forces servitude on her.

Annie Furman is a classic case of an abused wife

from the SUNY Downstate Medical Center:

Domestic abuse, or “battering”, is a pattern of abuse by one partner against the other, for the purpose of maintaining power and control…
Psychological battering: The abuser’s psychological or mental abuse can include constant verbal abuse, harassment, excessive possessiveness, fault-finding, isolating the woman from friends and family, deprivation of physical and economic resources, and destruction of personal property.

So I dabbled in Paranormal
[on Lindsay’s Romantics, Aug. 19, 2013]

I finally broke out of the mold. For years I wrote romantic suspense novels, liked the genre (and apparently so did some readers), and was very comfortable with the genre. I’ve always liked a bit of edge of the seat mystery and am a hopeless romantic myself, so…

 Review

Karma Visited captured me from the beginning and never let go. This tale of good, evil, and a miraculous gift between has a cast of characters you’ll never forget. Well done, Chelle Cordero. ~ by Charmaine Gordon, Author of Survive and Thrive novels and Mature Romances

Can you hear it now? YOU BET!
Bartlett’s Rule by Chelle Cordero is now available as an AUDIOBOOK on Audible, iTunes, and on Amazon! Also in All Ebook Formats and Print Editions.
Bartlett’s Rule shares the story of Lon and Paige’s love affair; a romance filled with hardship, emotion, danger and triumph. Falling in love was never the challenge; being there for each other, knowing just what to say and making it work is the real test. Paige and Lon are real; they are human, they cry and they laugh. Paige has to learn to trust. Lon has to learn to be patient.
Review
A fantastic read — a love story between two seemingly very different kinds of people. Between all the tribulations that get in the way of their romance, they ultimately triumph. The story is so well crafted and the characters evoke lots of emotion from the reader. The plot takes lots of twists and turns and underscores the severity of rape crimes and the lasting damage it inflicts upon its victims.

Bartlett’s Rule audiobook is narrated by Gwendolyn Jensen-Woodard, professional voice actress, owner and producer at Gypsy Audio, residing in the Pacific Northwest. Final Sinwas the first audiobook she produced for Chelle Cordero and Vanilla Heart Publishing, followed by Hostage Heart, and is now at work on Chelle’s upcoming paranormal suspense,Karma Visited. Gwendolyn’s range, professionalism, and extraordinary high quality production standards are just a few of the reasons we’re thrilled to be working with her on these projects.

September is
National Preparedness Month

Have you visited my Potpourri Parlor? I enjoy interviewing other authors and business people;.

I thought I might turn the tables, so to speak, and let my readers know a little more about me as well.

Using a random number generator and a list of interview questions from my editor, I’ve spent the last few weeks “interviewing” myself. I hope you have enjoyed getting to know me a little bit better.

In two paragraphs or less write your obituary.

Chelle Cordero lived a very good life full of adventure, some imagined, some exaggerated,  but all thrilling.  She leaves behind a loving family – husband, children, sister, nieces and nephews and spoiled pussycats – and she adored each one.

Chelle also leaves behind a huge cast of characters that she created for her novels. Each character had fully formed personalities and argued regularly with Chelle as she wrote their stories. It was one of Chelle’s final wishes that her book characters all be taken home to live happy and eternal lives in the minds of many, many readers.

Can you describe a typical writing day for you?

A typical writing day usually begins around 9:30 when I check my email, Facebook, Twitter and ,my blogs. By late morning – early afternoon I try to tackle deadline projects, do research, and hopefully have enough time to free-write and work on projects that are comfortably “down the road”.  I usually sit with my laptop during the evening and check emails and social network sites again.

What would we find under your bed?

I think I would be scared to find out – lots of dust-bunnies, shoes that have gone MIA and probably some paperwork that got “filed” under there. If you are getting the impression that I hate housework you are correct. I need to sell LOTS of books so that one day I can afford a housekeeper (hint).

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me, hope I haven’t disappointed.
