Tonic by Staci Hart
Release Date: October 13th
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Synopsis:
Joel Anderson doesnβt take anything seriously.
Not his relationships, which have been few and far between since his brutal divorce. Not the drama of working in a tattoo parlor, which seems to be around every corner. When things get him down, he smiles and cracks a joke. But heβs not the kind of man you cross, or youβll find yourself at the wrong end of his fists.
Annika Belousov takes everything seriously.
Like her job as a reality television producer, given that she typically has something to prove. Or her love life, which is defined by a series of requirements β affluent, ambitious, accomplished, to name a few. Definitely her family, who worked their whole lives to afford her every opportunity, a sacrifice she doesnβt take lightly. When sheβs tapped to produce a reality show at Joelβs shop, she doesnβt think twice, just goes in for the kill, as if there were any other way.
The second Annika walks into Joelβs shop, he makes it his mission to crack her open, but sheβs not having it. Heβs all wrong β too crass, too hairy, too un-serious. But it doesnβt take her long to find out thereβs more to him than smirks and tattoos. And what she finds could put her career and his heart on the line.
Not that Joel cares. Because for the first time in a long time, heβs found his tonic.

About the Author:
Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life — a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can’t forget that. She’s also been a mom, with three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She’s been a wife, though she’s certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She’s also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she’s been drinking whiskey.
From roots in Houston to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she’s not writing, she’s reading, sleeping, gaming, or designing graphics.
