An Intro to Sloth

And so it begins! Sloth is the last story in the Love is Cure, Vol. 1 – Vices & Virtues series and has a release date of September 19th. This book will conclude my longest running series and I cannot wait for you to read it for many amazing reasons besides it being the last story. 

For one, we’re dealing with characters always meant to be (like all my other characters). However, decisions and circumstances that were too big for them to handle at the wrong time, changes the trajectory of their futures. 

But like life, their story worlds collide when they least expect it, leaving them to need each other in more ways than they first believed.

We met Eryn Peters and Simeon King in previous books in my catalog. First, we met Simeon in So This is Love (Book five in the Forbidden series) as the MMC Dallas’s agent and then we met Eryn in Gluttony (book five in the LIC series) as the younger sister to Everett – the MMC. In both stories, Eryn and Simeon mention each other and their relationship, stirring up curiosity about their romantic history.

Especially because neither one of them would just tell us what happened. 

That’s because there’s so much more to just telling us. To tell us what caused their breakup would make us want to know the complete story behind it, and that’s what we will get with Sloth

Sloth is a second chance romance that is taking us from California to New York City, to Las Vegas! We’re traveling in this one. As with all the other stories in the series, our couple are opposites, with one dealing with a vice and the other being the virtuous one. In Sloth, Eryn has gradually fallen into a sloth-driven slump and Simeon is diligent about getting her out of it because he needs her help with his client’s scandal. With them being exes, that poses a challenge, because the reason they broke up was because of a strained trust between them. And no, infidelity wasn’t the culprit. But the trust is not there, and they need to trust each other to extinguish a media fire that NEEDS extinguishing immediately. 

In book seven, sloth as a vice is more than laziness. We’ll definitely touch on the physical idleness that sloth brings about. But our focus will be heavy on the emotional inertia, the avoidance, the running away from effort even when it’s necessary. Though Eryn’s slothful nature doesn’t come out in her brother’s story in Gluttony, it’s mentioned, and as said above, her slothful slump hits her so hard she has no choice but to cave into it.

Simeon’s diligence is unmistakable in So This is Love when he achieves the impossible by getting Dallas to agree to him being Dallas’s agent. Especially when Dallas was so put off by all the agents before Simeon approaching him as a star college basketball player. But there is nothing impossible for Simeon King who see’s obstacles as opportunities that only require hard work and a proactive attitude to overcome and achieve. 

There’s so much to talk about with this story and these characters. And we’ll dive into that from here on out and until its release in three months.

Stay tuned!
