Review For Flashes Of Me
Imagine The World shares
“The romance was both sweet and hot. I liked how Kat and Henley understood each other so completely. And, their chemistry was ON FIRE! There was some super hot steaminess. Get ready to fan your face, because it was downright steamy.”

Henley, the head of cyber security at Blaine Technologies, is a man no one crosses. He watches employees constantly using his network of cameras and enforces his rules by any means possible. Rumors of his violent past, his scarred hands and huge size have resulted in him being feared by everyone… almost everyone.
Katalina, the new intern, worries about the revelation of her most painful secret much more than she fears her sexy boss’s wrath. She sees the loneliness in his dark eyes, feels the gentleness in his marred fingers, tastes the need in his kisses, and she knows he watches her. His silly rules about not stripping for the cameras and no sex at the office are destined to be broken.
Kat likes to be watched. Henley can’t look away. Will this beauty be able to tame her beastly boss?

Interviewed At Ink Motions
I’ve been interviewed at Ink Motions!
http://taigecrenshaw.com/blog/2014/02/24/ink-motions-with-cynthia-sax-2/
Here’s a snippet…
Is there any advice you can offer to anyone who would like to write?
Be fearless. The great romances break the established rules. Of course, we should know the rules before we break them, but we shouldn’t hesitate to write something different, something groundbreaking. Write balls to the wall, all out.
Flashes Of Me may look like a regular Beauty and the Beast story but there’s a twist. I attempt something in this story that I’ve never seen done before. It was scary. I didn’t know if my editor would like it (she did – she loved it) and I don’t know if readers will like it. But I know they won’t be bored while reading it. (grins)

Fave Quotes From Flashes Of Me
Quite a few readers have shared their favorite lines from Flashes Of Me with me and I LOVE this.
So I thought I’d share some of MY favorite lines.
***
Employees raise their heads, spot Henley, and duck back down.
This happens again and again, the sight hilariously funny. “Have you ever played that amusement-park game where the rodents pop out of holes and you have to whack them with a mallet?” I ask. Henley doesn’t answer, his broad shoulders shaking. “You’re strong and fast. I think you’d be great at that game. You could win me a stuffed bear or a giant plush unicorn.”
***
Okay, this is more than a line but I love this because Kat takes something that has really been hurting Henley and she twists it into something humorous, changing his view on the world, his emotional reaction.
***
I swallow my fears, turn, and enter the car, leaving my behemoth standing on the sidewalk, a solid wall of black separating joy and sorrow.
***
I think this sums up what Henley means to Kat. He is her wall. For others, say Camille aka Goth girl, a wall wouldn’t be a good thing, but Kat feels safe behind a wall.
***
I need to be happy.
***
This line more than anything defines Kat. She doesn’t WANT to be happy. She NEEDS to be happy. Much of what she does is driven by this need.

Does Size Matter?
I’m at Ramblings From This Chick
http://ramblingsfromthischick.blogspot.ca/2014/02/guest-post-with-author-cynthia-sax-and.html#more
talking about Flashes Of Me and whether or not size matters. (grins)
Here’s a tidbit
“Henley, the hero of Flashes Of Me, is a BIG man. He’s tall and broad with not an inch of fat on his muscular body. He’s conscious of his size, wearing all black to emphasize his unusual physique even more.
Being a large man has its benefits. People are naturally scared of him and this helps him in his role as head of security at Blaine Technologies. He likes to loom over wrongdoers, intimidating them with his mere presence. This decreases the odds he’ll have to use his massive fists.
His height and width has its disadvantages also. As Kat, the heroine, states “Some people think big men are dumb.” Kat realizes immediately that Henley is very intelligent, maybe too intelligent. He sees the secrets she would prefer remain hidden.”

Why I LOVE Henley
I’m at Louisa Bacio ‘s online home today, talking about the beastly hero and why I LOVE, absolutely LOVE Henley, the hero of Flashes Of Me
http://louisabacio.blogspot.ca/2014/02/beastly-heroes-with-cynthia-sax.html
Here’s a tidbit
“Henley uses his appearance and the rumors to do his job. Very few people dare to break the rules at Blaine Technologies because no one wants Henley confronting them. Employees are so scared, they avoid him in the hallways, exit elevators when he enters, duck behind walls when he passes.
This avoidance hurts Henley but he tolerates it because it allows him to protect the people he secretly cares for. He willingly trades his happiness to safeguard others. And the kicker is…no one notices.”

Common Misconceptions About Beastly Heroes And Beautiful Heroines
Kat and Henley are at
http://harlequinjunkie.com/spotlight-giveaway-flashes-of-me-by-cynthia-sax/
talking about the common misconceptions about beastly heroes and beautiful heroines.
Here’s a tidbit
Kat, the heroine of Flashes Of Me, would like to clear up some common misconceptions about beautiful heroines.
1) Unless the heroine is as dumb as a post, she knows she’s beautiful. Come on. Men have been gaping at her, running after her with flowers, telling her in a zillion different ways that she’s beautiful for her entire life (or for as long as she’s been beautiful). Men aren’t the most subtle creatures in the world.
Henley, the head of cyber security at Blaine Technologies, is a man no one crosses. He watches employees constantly using his network of cameras and enforces his rules by any means possible. Rumors of his violent past, his scarred hands and huge size have resulted in him being feared by everyone… almost everyone.
Katalina, the new intern, worries about the revelation of her most painful secret much more than she fears her sexy boss’s wrath. She sees the loneliness in his dark eyes, feels the gentleness in his marred fingers, tastes the need in his kisses, and she knows he watches her. His silly rules about not stripping for the cameras and no sex at the office are destined to be broken.
