Dangerous Desires
by Dawn Altieri
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Three years after Emma Sloane's wealthy fiance's mysterious death, she's finally ready to move on and
pursue her own dreams. But her plans are derailed when she's attacked outside her New York City
apartment in what she thinks is a random violent incident. Then other women who look just like her start
turning up dead...
Homicide Detective Jake Quinn is haunted by the one case he couldn't solve. When he's put in charge of
a new high-profile murder case, he interviews a victim who escaped a similar attack—and to his shock
it's Emma, the former fiancée of his unsolved murder victim.
Neither expects the sparks of attraction between them. But the killer escalates, clearly targeting Emma,
and Jake's job is on the line. Can he solve this case before it's too late for both of them?
A lifelong resident of northern New Jersey, Dawn Altieri has been scribbling stories practically since birth.
After reaching a milestone birthday (she won't say which one), she figured it was about time she took a
shot at writing professionally.
With an overactive imagination and a slightly twisted mind, she enjoys reading dark and dangerous tales
almost as much as writing them. When she's not curled up on the sofa with her laptop, her latest story, a
box of chocolates and a cup of tea (or a glass of wine, depending on the time of day), she can be found
volunteering in the world of animal rescue. To keep a roof over her head, she works in the printing
industry as a graphic production artist. She shares her home with her husband and daughter, and a
menagerie of rescued fur-babies.

About

How
did you become an author?
I’ve
been writing since I was a child: poems, short stories, rambling
soap-opera type stories with no clear ending…
but it wasn’t until later in my life after I was married with a
child that I managed to finish an entire book. Better late than
never, I suppose!
What are some of
your pet peeves?
Bad drivers, people who
act like they know what they’re talking about when they really
don’t, and the way my dog waits for me to sit down to a meal before
she decides she needs to go out to pee.
Where were you
born/where did you grow up?
Jersey Girl through and through!
Jersey Girl through and through!
How do you find time
to write as a parent?
This actually used to be a lot easier when my daughter was younger and I could put her to bed earlier! Now that she is a teenager, I don’t get as much of my evenings to myself anymore, and the day job sucks up soooo much of my time. But at least my daughter is self-sufficient enough to put herself to bed now.

Which of your novels
can you imagine made into a movie?
Well,
there are only two—Burn and Dangerous Desires—and I’ve imagined
both of them as movies many times. I write the kind of stories I
would love to watch as movies. I love a good suspenseful thriller,
and a steamy romantic storyline draws me in every time.
If you could tell your younger writing self anything, what would it be?

Keep writing! I often
wonder if I had kept at it as a younger adult, how much further along
in my writing career would I have been by now? But again, better late
than never!
