Beth Ciotta is a published author of fiction.

Ciotta finds that telling stories comes pretty naturally to her, while limiting herself to just one genre is less easy. She says that her specialty is writing novels that fall into the genre of romantic comedy and come with a suspenseful twist.

Ciotta has written all types of fiction from paranormal to historical romance and contemporary romance with more to come, this author says that she loves the fulfilling feeling of writing stories in which most of the characters get the chance to live happily ever after.

Beth lives in New Jersey. She shares her home with her dogs, cat, and husband. She spends a lot of her time writing but even though she is a full time author, she also spends time working as a character actress, singer, storyteller, and emcee. She also works at the library in her area.

Beth Ciotta is the creator and author of the Friends and Lovers trilogy. The series of three books kicked off in 2004 with the release of the debut novel, Jinxed. Charmed was the sequel and the third book completed the series. It is titled Seduced.

Jinxed is the first novel in the Friends and Lovers series. If you are looking for a fun book to enjoy, check this debut story out and meet the character of Afia St. John for the first time.

Afia is a beautiful young woman and was a socialite pretty much since the day that she was born. But ever since she was a baby, she has also had something lined up for her as well. The string of bad luck that she has endured all her life has seemed to be following her around like a curse.

She lost her father early to accidents that seemed way too freaky to be all that accidental. It was all the more spooky where two of her husbands died the same way. She also finds out that her fortune has been lost, thanks to a business manager taking off with it. Afia has had enough and promises herself that she is not going to have her life dependent on a man telling her what to do and how she should live.

This socialite is determined to be her own guide and break the bad luck once and for all. She refuses the help offered by her godfathers and is fortunate to take a random job that comes her way. The position involves working for Leeds Investigations.

Jake Leeds finds that he cannot turn down a generous offer given to him by the godfather of Afia and hires her. He just needs the money from this secret retainer too bad as he has a pregnant sister with a baby on the way that also happens to be broke. With his investigation agency doing very poorly, Jake has no choice but to take the retainer and hire Afia.

The socialite does not have any natural business skills, but Jake quickly sees past all that. Afia may have her own set of superstitions and no sense of what a real job is. But despite her history and the life that she has come from, he starts to realize that this young woman is the real deal. She is not only misunderstood but far more generous than he could have ever predicted.

Afia was born on an unlucky day. Could the fact that she was born on the thirteenth as well as a Friday end up affecting her for the rest of her life? Or is the fact that she has such pervasive bad luck simply something that attached to her as a result?

This private investigator might just be the best thing that ever happened to her. Could Jake be the person that finally is able to help her break this jinx? She is about to find out. She’s hoping that this relationship is not going to fall victim to bad luck like all the others.

Afia could use a bit of luck in her life. Can this guy end up being a catalyst for things to finally turn around? You are going to have to pick up a copy of this book and read all the way to the end in order to find out!

Charmed is the second novel in the Friends and Lovers series. Lulu Ross is a story teller and she also believes in the power of non violence. She believes that the only way of life is to try and just not promote or be a vessel of violence.

So it would figure that now she has fallen head first for a guy that happens to carry a gun. She can’t help it if Colin Murphy is one of the most handsome bodyguards she has seen in a long time. The guy is not only cute, but he is drop dead sexy.

This guy also happens to be pretty delusional, in her opinion. The bodyguard appears to believe that someone is going out of their way in a plan to get at Princess Charming. There’s no way that anyone would have it out to get this princess. She always keeps a low profile and never puts so much as a toe out of line.

The princess performs at birthday parties for children, pretending to be a character from a storybook. Murphy thinks that the gifts are suspicious. She thinks that the gifts are from an admirer and meant for her beautiful sister.

The bodyguard is doing his best to protect Lulu. She may not want the extra attention, but she also is a glass half full type of woman. Her cheerful nature means that she wants to trust people and is gullible to a dangerous point. Lulu may be famous around here, but she also is clueless and will not believe that she is facing down danger.

Murphy was tipped off officially and knows that she isn’t facing up to the truth. She may not think that she’s a target or she may just not want to believe it. This bodyguard is trying to protect her, but will he only fall for her instead? Read this book to find out!
