Interview and Giveaway Cyrus (Men of Steel #2) by M.J. Fields

Description:

~Cyrus~ 

Truth 

I know who I am. I’m Cyrus Steel, son, brother, uncle, friend to people I choose to bring into my life. 

Truth 

I could fuck up anyone I want. 

Truth 

I know the devastation I can and have caused. 

Truth 

I can’t change the past, but I have chosen how to live now. 

Truth 

I like to fuck, and I will do a chick better than she’s ever been done. Hard and wild. No more than three hook ups. No expectations, no one gets hurt. As long as she agrees …it’s on. 

One of my favorite tattoo’s bridges the V, and it says Truth. 

A constant reminder of who I was and who I am now. 

~Tara~ 

I wasn’t sure I knew how or even if I should tell him there was no one who loved me. Tony was the last person to say those words to me and he hadn’t meant it. He just wanted to use me. 

That’s what this beautiful man underneath me, showed me today. He hadn’t used me, he didn’t even know me. But he thought I was beautiful, and he was nice to me. Tony was wrong about him, and even though I never want to see him again, I wish I could tell him just how wrong he was. 

Can truth be altered? Can truth be seen when walls are built for protection, for self preservation? Will self doubt and years of pain cloud two hearts from finding their truth?

MB's INTERVIEW

You said “I […] have always been able to see both sides of a story”. How are these “both sides of a story” present in Cyrus/ Men of Steel?

The story is told by each main character. One chapter is Cyrus’s POV and then Tara’s POV. Each character (person) has different life experiences that are brought into the relationship that causes them to behave the way they do. A lot of times in real life we have a hard time seeing beyond our selves. It makes it difficult to view another person’s reason for reacting to or understand their perception of any given event.

Reading Cyrus’s teasers I found some very… intimate. What it takes to write hot, but not vulgar, intimate scenes?

Hmmm. LOL. I have an interesting view on this. When we decide to give ourselves to someone the less boundaries we have the better. That to me is done best when you trust someone. I don’t think there is anything wrong with two adults taking and receiving pleasure from one another. I don’t find it difficult at all to write these scenes as long as there is that mutual respect and trust between my characters. Kind of like painting a picture and hoping they can see beyond the nipple…kind of.

Why do you think people (yes, I don’t want to say women) read erotica?

Depends on the person. Some may want to have that expierience, that closeness. Others may just want to read so they can experience it through a book. Reading can also be your mid life crisis, your escape from reality, fufill a desire, or simply to see how others (fictional characters) live. To broaden there horizons, because it’s better to have the emotional connection reading these types of books than look at porn? I hope that answers the question. To me it’s very personal and each person has there reasoning.

What makes a good adult romance (or an erotic romance)?

Emotion. If I am not emotionally attached to a character than I wont like the book. It can’t be all sex and smut. There has to be depth. If I wanted that I’m sure I could pull it up online and look at pictures.

Also, you said that “I […] spend time reading and doing the typical Mommy things”. What “Mommy” has to say about your books? What about the other mommies (friends or neighbours)?

My Mommy hasn’t read anything I have written. That I know of so I can’t answer that. All of my truly close friends have, and they love it. My sisters, aunts, female cousins, even a male cousin have read my writing. Family gives the most honest feedback, and they seem to enjoy them. They know I’m a bit twisted…it’s genetic. They don’t always like the twists and turns or when I off someone but they are one hundred percent behind me. If they weren’t id kick there asses.

About the author:

I am a very new self published writer. I will tell you I have always had a very vivid imagination. Starting at age 3 (as it states in my Baby Book).

Sigma was my very first love (imaginary boyfriend). He lived about fifteen miles from my childhood home, (a farm). I took him chicken noodle soup every night on one of our families snowmobiles, (Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring). Apparently he was very ill and "Thank God" I was able to take care of him.

Next was my very first self publishing gig. At eight my cousins and I (and yes I was the president) wrote a newsletter and sold it to our family members.

Years later I decided to put it back into print to entertain my cousin as she was on an aircraft carrier on 9/11 (Kick ass cousin BTW) and very far away from home during a very scary time for our country, (protecting our butts).

Fast forward to 2012. I read 50 shades and thought, I can do that, (meaning writing). I have two complete series The Love Series, and Wrapped. I have two new series Burning Souls and Men of Steel. Ten books in 13 months. CrAzY and wonderful.

I love love! ( I would love to reference Pinks new song here, however I am not sure if that would cause copyright issues.)I also tend to enjoy watching people grow and change with self realization and moments of clarity that just sneak up behind you and smack you in the head. I love people and have always been able to see both sides of a story. Each person that comes into our life leaves us with something it is what we choose to do with it that helps us grow.

I live in central New York in the middle of nowhere and am surrounded by family and friend most the time. I run a small business out of my home and spend time reading and doing the typical Mommy things. Our house is full of pets and friends and noise ninety percent of the time, and I would have it no other way.

I love people,music, laughter, hugs, and books.
