Sammara Gunderson Hollywood, California September 2012 As a music journalist, I’ve interviewed rock stars from all over the globe, using my special intuitions to pen some of the most in-depth and personal interviews in the business. Meeting Maggie’s Bones-and especially their intense bass player, Mage-proved to be a life-changing experience. I was immediately drawn to this strange but intriguing man, and we spent an amazing night bonding over our similar experiences growing up freaks . We had a fantastic connection, unlike anything I’d ever experienced… Until Mage started talking about dreams, about destiny and fate, and it brought up too many painful memories…ones I’d buried long ago in a desperate bid to function as a normal human being. That didn’t quite work out as planned. Now I’m spiraling down a depressing, anxiety-filled hole, and while I want so desperately to believe that I can heal from my past and love again, love Mage, I’m afraid I may be Fated to be alone… Take another wild ride with the hard-rocking members of Maggie’s Bones, and see if love can once again cure the haunted. Author Note: While Fated is a stand-alone story, readers will get greater enjoyment (and more hot, emotional rockers) by first reading Haunted.
