Underground series:
Follow this 10-part serial throughout 2015 featuring Ethan, aka Slapshot, a hockey player whose life is ruined, forcing him to disappear forever. Ethan joins Underground, a black ops organization and is trained as a deadly operative. There, he meets Ciana, a woman with a dark past of her own. As Ethan and his Underground colleagues embark on dangerous missions worldwide, he finds a new purpose in life. But will his former problems come back to haunt him?
Creating Slapshot:
I’ve left my old life behind and officially joined Underground. It appears no one knows where I am or even if I’m still alive. I don’t know how I feel about that. My friends thinking I’m dead leaves a hole in my heart, but I’ll drive myself crazy if I obsess about it. So rather than allowing myself to wallow in self-pity or anger about what’s happened, I’m throwing all my energy into training. You would think that whole “elite athlete” thing would make everything easier, but all these new techniques I need to master—hand-to-hand combat, weapons training, surveillance procedures—are kicking my ass.
For my whole life, I’ve only had one identity. Ethan, hockey player. Now that sense of self is gone forever, slowly being replaced by my new identity, Slapshot. Surreal doesn’t even begin to describe this transformation. But the more I find out about the world around me, the problems I ignored for the most part as I played a game for an obscene amount of money, the more I want to make a difference. This is not a game. It’s real life, and I have the chance to be a hero. It’s going to take everything I have—or have left, to do it.

Part 2 of a 10 part serial
Gets better every time!
In this part of the serial, Slapshot aka Ethan ex hockey player turned black ops, is born. He is struggling with everything but is catching on to the training quickly. His teammates are understanding and compassionate and you can tell there are going to be some pretty strong bonds formed.
I love how we get more banter between the characters as we get to know them and we learn some of there histories. We get a little more of Ciana, our leading lady and we get to hear her story. I think she is going to be a very interesting character and I can't wait to get to know her better.
Can't wait for part #3!
About Cassandra
So who am I? I've been writing my whole life, and have been published since March 2011. I'm lucky to have an incredibly supportive husband named Inspiration who brings home the bacon so I can stay home and fry it (and eat it all before he's able to fight through the rush hour traffic - I'm mean that way, but like I always say, don't get between a woman and her bacon).
I live in Western New York with Inspiration and our young daughter, Too Cute for Words. I write in a variety of genres, pairings, and heat levels, so there's something for everyone, and more than one dozen sites have named my books "Top Picks" or "5 Star Reads".
I'm a PAN member of the leading professional association for romance novelists, Romance Writers of America. I've met so many interesting people through these organizations and highly recommend them to any aspiring writer!
As you can see, my life is pretty busy, but I try to take as much time as I can to write. And re-write. And re-write. It's a never-ending, vicious circle, and I love it!
