“Dear Miss Independent,
I've decided that of all the women I've ever known, you are the only one I will ever love more than hunting, fishing, football, and power tools.
You may not know this, but the other time I asked you to marry me, the night I put the crib together, I meant it. Even though I knew you weren't ready.
God, I hope you're ready now.
Marry me, Ella. Because no matter where you go or what you do, I'll love you every day for the rest of my life.
—Jack”

“I carry this thing between us, like a weight. A good weight, in my pocket. I reach out and hold it from time to time like a wonderful secret. I will always have that. I will never feel this way about another woman, ever. My heart will be yours forever, no matter who shares your bed, no matter whose children you bear. I’m here.” He tapped her chest. “And you’re here.” He tapped his own.”

Today we're spotlighting Book Four in Kallypso Masters' Rescue Me Saga!SOMEBODY'S ANGEL by Kallypso Masters
Rescue Me Saga Book Four
When Marc d’Alessio first rescued the curvaceous and spirited Italian Angelina Giardano at the Masters at Arms Club, he never expected her to turn his safe, controlled life upside down and pull at his long-broken heartstrings. Months later, the intense fire of their attraction still rages, but something holds him back from committing to her completely. Worse, secrets and memories from his past join forces to further complicate his relationships with family, friends, and his beautiful angel.
Angelina cannot give all of herself to someone who hides himself from her. She loves Marc, the BDSM world he brought her into, and the way their bodies respond to one another, but she needs more. Though she destroyed the wolf mask he once wore, only he can remove the mask he dons daily to hide his emotions. In a desperate attempt to break through his defenses and reclaim her connection to the man she loves, she attempts a full frontal assault that sends him into a fast retreat, leaving her nobody’s angel once again.
Marc finds that running to the mountains no longer gives him solace but instead leaves him empty and alone. Angelina is the one woman worth the risk of opening his heart. Will he risk everything to become the man she deserves and the man he wants to be?

Kallypso Masters writes emotional, realistic Romance novels with dominant males (for the most part) and the women who can bring them to their knees. She also has brought many readers to their knees— having them experience the stories right along with her characters in the Rescue Me series. Kally knows that Happily Ever After takes maintenance, so her couples don’t solve all their problems and disappear at “the end” of their Romance, but will continue to work on real problems in their relationships in later books in the series.Kally has been writing full-time since May 2011, having quit her “day job” the month before. MASTERS AT ARMS was her debut novel (published in August 2011), followed by NOBODY'S ANGEL, NOBODY'S HERO, NOBODY'S PERFECT and SOMEBODY'S ANGEL. Next she looks forward to writing the long-awaited book of Luke, NOBODY'S DREAM.
Kally lives in rural Kentucky and has been married for 30 years to the man who provided her own Happily Ever After. They have two adult children, one adorable grandson, and a rescued dog and cat. Kally enjoys meeting readers at national romance-novel conventions, book signings, and informal gatherings (restaurants, airports, bookstores, wherever!), as well as in online groups (including Facebook’s “The Rescue Me Series Open Discussion” secret group— send a friend request to the Karla Montague link below on Facebook to join; she also visits the Fetlife “Rescue Me! Series Discussion Group” regularly) and in live online chats. She hopes to meet you in her future travels! If you meet her face to face, be sure to ask for a Kally’s friend button!

All day today on our Cyber Launch Party Blog, we're celebrating book two in Kallypso Masters' bestselling Rescue Me Series!NOBODY'S PERFECT by Kallypso Masters
Rescue Me Book 3
Savannah Gentry, now Savi Baker, escaped the abuse, torture, and degradation forced upon her by a sadistic father for eleven years and has made a safe life for herself and her daughter. When her father threatens her peace of mind--and her daughter's safety--Savi runs to Damian Orlando for protection. Eight years earlier, young Savannah shared one perfect day with Damian that changed both their young lives and resulted in a secret she can no longer hide. But being with Damian reawakens repressed memories and feelings she does want to keep hidden--buried. At Damian's private Masters at Arms Club, she discovers that sexual healing might be achieved through BDSM (Bondage, Dominance/submission, sadomasochism)—specifically SM administered by a loving Service Top named Damian.
Damian, a wounded warrior, has had his own dragons to fight in life, but has never forgotten Savannah. He will lay down his life to protect Savi and her daughter, but doesn't believe he can offer more than that. She deserves a whole man, something he can never be after a firefight in Iraq. Damian also has turned to SM to regain control of his life and emotions and fulfills the role of Service Top to "bottoms" in the club in need of catharsis by whipping or other SM practices he is skilled at delivering. But he could never deliver that level of pain to Savi, who needs someone gentle and loving, not the man he has become. But when Savi witnesses a cathartic whipping scene on her first night at the club--delivered by Damian--she begins to wonder if this Damian could also help her regain control of her life and reclaim her sexuality and identity.
CONTENT WARNING: Readers who have a history of past abuse (sexual, physical, and emotional) may be triggered by scenes in this story. Before reading this book, please be aware that it is primarily about an incest survivor dealing with the sexual aftermath of years of abuse. She has dealt with non-sexual issues in years of therapy, but has tamped down anything related to sex. In this story, she struggles to find healing through a trusting, consensual BDSM relationship. If you believe that reading about PTSD flashbacks of incest, whipping for catharsis, mindf**ks, and related topics might be triggering for you, but you still choose to read it, please make sure you only read this book in a safe environment with supportive people available to you.
The BDSM scenes in this book (some of them beginning and advanced sadomasochism techniques) are the result of many conversations with submissives and Dominants who have worked through similar abuse issues using activities in the BDSM community and lifestyle. Therefore, the BDSM is portrayed as healing rather than titillating. If you are looking for the latter only, this might not be an enjoyable read.
But if you want to delve into the roller-coaster journey of a young couple trying to work through intense issues in a compelling story that pulls you into the characters' world and doesn't let you go, then you might find healing and entertainment in this story. The author, also a child-sexual abuse survivor, has found that writing the story has provided catharsis for her, and hopes other survivors who read it will see that they are survivors, too, and no one is ever so wounded she or he can't find love.

All day today on our Cyber Launch Party Blog, we're celebrating book two in Kallypso Masters' bestselling Rescue Me Series!NOBODY'S HERO by Kallypso Masters
Rescue Me Book 2
NOBODY'S HERO is the continuing romantic journey of Adam and Karla, which began in MASTERS AT ARMS & NOBODY'S ANGEL.
Retired Marine Master Sergeant Adam Montague has battled through four combat zones, but now finds himself retreating from Karla Paxton, who has declared war on his heart. With a significant age difference, he feels he should be her guardian and protector, not her lover. But Karla's knack for turning up in his bed at inopportune times is killing his resolve to do the right thing. Karla isn't the young girl he rescued nine years earlier—something his body reminds him of every chance it gets.
Their age difference is only part of the problem. Fifty-year-old Adam has been a collector of lost and vulnerable souls most of his life, but a secret he has run from for more than three decades has kept him emotionally unable to admit love for anyone. Will Karla be able to break through the defenses around his heart and help him put the ghosts from his past to rest? In her all-out war to get Adam to surrender his heart, will the strong-willed Goth singer offer herself as his submissive and, if so, at what cost to herself?
ABOUT THE RESCUE ME SAGA: The books in the ongoing Rescue Me Saga are not stand-alone stories and should be read in order. Characters will recur in later books to deal with further issues in their lives as the saga continues and each book builds upon all previous ones. Sometimes main characters even need another book to help resolve major issues affecting their relationships.
BONUS MATERIAL in this version: Kallypso Masters has added the PLAYLIST of music that inspired her as she wrote about the first three couples mentioned in this combined volume, as well as a GLOSSARY OF TERMS and a CAST OF CHARACTERS in these books in the saga.

Hi Kallypso, thanks so much for accepting my friend request. Hope you have a wonderful day!
Stacey is a SMUT WHORE wrote: "LOVED LOVED LOVED NOBODY'S PERFECT!!! WELL WORTH THE WAIT!!!!THANK YOU!!!!!"
Thanks, Stacey! I am just about ready to post the final updates to the book next week. It is about to go out in paperback. The first three books came out in two paperbacks last month. But I want my e-books to match the paper ones, so I updated those, too. The first three books should have a date on the COPYRIGHT PAGE (not the publication date, which never changes) of Nov. 30, 2012. And Perfect will be about Jan. 15-16, 2013, I think.
Thanks for asking--and for your patience. I used to write personal notes to all I accepted, but as my requests piled up over the last 5-6 months (to 163 last night!), I realized I'd never have time for that again, so I just accepted them all! Thanks for popping in to say hi!Kally

I will never understand Goodreads as long as I live, but just saw your comment here. Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the book--and those hot scenes. Those two really did heat up the pages. I love a hero who likes rough sex. Luckily, so does Karla! :) Kally

Hi Kallypso! Thanks for adding me. I'm looking forward to your upcoming books. I absolutely love the Rescue Me series!
Aw, Francesca--I'm the same way. And the man just isn't done yet. Can't have abandonment issues for 34 years and have them disappear in a couple weeks. He has more work to do--in Nobody's Dream (book 6), I think. But no worries. You'll get your happy ending (maybe more) at the end of Hero. He deserved it. :)Kally
Strangely, I don't want to head slap him! I think he needs a hug and some cuddling LOL I know, I'm weird.Thanks for accepting!

Holly wrote: "Oh Kally - I am totally in love with all the Doms, well Adam in particular, but they all definitely turn my crank!!! But OMG! I could hug you for creating this wonderful world I can immerse myself ..."Holly, you made my day! I was working on a scene with Adam and Karla this morning. Um, this couple is going to move MUCH faster than Marc and Angelina did, because they have so much history and trust already built up. But she just threatened to take a whip to him if he doesn't open his eyes pretty damn quick. LOL. It's going to bring readers (and the writer) laughs and tears-but, man, what a ride! I'm loving it, too!
Oh Kally - I am totally in love with all the Doms, well Adam in particular, but they all definitely turn my crank!!! But OMG! I could hug you for creating this wonderful world I can immerse myself in for awhile!!Btw, thanks for accepting my friend-vite!! *smooches*
I will request through Amazon the updated version! I should get it pretty quick! I'm sure I will read it again before Adam and Karla's book comes out! God Adam is going to ruffle my feathers, he's stubborn, and although I sympathize with him, he needs to realized that he is still alive and Karla is a damned good match! That last line blew my mind and let me tell ya, it made me shake my Kindle at like midnight when I finished it and go "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO December come faster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" LMAO!!!!
Thank you for the friend invite! I sent you a PM earlier today asking a question about the series order.And just an FYI - to reply to posts like this one, made in your profile, you have to go to that person's profile and post it there. They won't get a notification if you reply here, inside your own profile.
Silly, I know.
Nice to meet you, too! I'm still trying to find my way around Goodreads, but it looks like an amazing site!On a personal note, my condolences to the Harlequin/Silhouette family for the recent loss of Sandra Hyatt. I can only imagine how devastating it must be to her editor and others who worked with her on her books, as well as to her readers. Please extend my thoughts and prayers to her family and friends, as well. {{hugs}}

Hello Kallypso, it is a pleasure to meet you.
