About the author
Lisa Rusczyk Hazard
9Ìýbooks11ÌýfollowersI'm a writer living in North Alabama, USA.
I write fiction.
Haven't been on Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ in a while, and looked at my page. Wow, I have 164 books published!
Thing is, I don't. The name Lisa Rusczyk is unique; however, there is another Lisa Rusczyk who writes, too! How interesting is that? She writes great how-tos and children's fiction.
Some of her books were tagged under my profile, so I'm going to write her on Facebook tomorrow and ask her for her Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ author page link so if you want to add a Lisa Rusczyk book to Å·±¦ÓéÀÖ, you'll have a link to her outstanding and quite large array of books. I'm hoping her books can get on her page so she can get the props for them.

Thanks all! I have more novelish stuff coming out soon! I've been ghost writing for a few years, and now I'm ready to get back to my own fiction.
I'm giving away PDFs of my YA book, Constantine and the Summer of Lies. If you want one, write me at

Yep, Hazard. I've been married for over five years and from now on will publish under the name Lisa Rusczyk Hazard. I mean, is that last name rad, or what?
Thanks for checking out my author page and I hope you enjoy my books if you happen to pick them up!

This book is far too short. In fact I've read longer blurbs.
Diana is orphaned as a child when wolves kill her parents. Nine years later, she is kidnapped by men who turn out to be werewolves, and you can guess the rest.
There is absolutely no character development in this book, so you really have no interest in what is happening to whom at all, and it's so ridiculously short that the lead characters actions make no sense whatsoever! It's like `oh no, I've been kidnapped!', `Actually, my kidnapper looks pretty fit.', ` Lets get married and live happily ever after' .
This book could have been great if it had been full length rather than written on the back of a postage stamp, all the key elements are there, but in its current state, it's really not worth reading. Not even for free.

My Rating: ★★�
Book Description:
Diana witnessed her parents' slaughter by wolves at a young age. Now's she's twenty and a strange man, Ari, has kidnapped her and chained her to a bed in a cabin in the mountains, claiming he is protecting her from herself. She is both drawn to and afraid of Ari, who kindles a deep desire in her for passion.
My Thoughts:
This wasn't a bad story for a novella. Readers cannot expect much in the way of a back story because of the short length. The romantic was basic and the story summed up very cleanly after a little conflict.
Reading Time: approximately 30 minutes

This was short and sweet. Needed a little more detail but had a good story line.

A weird book with potential.

Loved it! I would have loved it as much if it had been a full novel as well. Looking forward to reading more by this author!

It has potential - too short, just needs more......

Interesting premiss with potential. Very short story which left the plot seeming rushed and incomplete.
