Another note on timing. Dialysis and transplant preparation usually take more than just a "few weeks" to put in motion, but for the purposes of the book I contracted the schedule a bit. However, with his connections through Betty and his worsening condition, it is possible the time frame could have been stepped up for Des. On the kidney transplant, the availability of an appropriate donor could also have accelerated the schedule.
Anyhow, if at any point my decision to leave out some details made these conditions seem less serious, my deepest apologies to those who know just how challenging they are. I'll close by expressing my admiration for how people like Des make the most of their lives. Seizing love and appreciating life to the fullest, no matter what physical obstacles are placed in their way, leaves the rest of us no excuse not to do the same.
Oh, and for those who want to tease me about the deux ex machina of how Des found a kidney, I fully accept that it was very much an HEA romance kind of thing. But that's what makes writing (and reading) romance so much fun! Lol...

About the Author
Joey W. Hill writes about vampires, mermaids, boardroom executives, cops, witches, angels, housemaids... She's penned over forty acclaimed titles and six award-winning series, and been awarded the RT Book Reviews Career Achievement Award for Erotica. But she's especially proud and humbled to have the support and enthusiasm of a wonderful, widely diverse readership.
So why erotic romance? "Writing great erotic romance is all about exploring the true face of who we are - the best and worst - which typically comes out in the most vulnerable moments of sexual intimacy." She has earned a reputation for writing BDSM romance that not only wins her fans of that genre, but readers who would "never" read BDSM romance. She believes that's because strong, compelling characters are the most important part of her books.
"Whatever genre you're writing, if the characters are captivating and sympathetic, the readers are going to want to see what happens to them. That was the defining element of the romances I loved most and which shaped my own writing. Bringing characters together who have numerous emotional obstacles standing in their way, watching them reach a soul-deep understanding of one another through the expression of their darkest sexual needs, and then growing from that understanding into love - that's the kind of story I love to write."
Take the plunge with her, and don't hesitate to let her know what you think of her work, good or bad. She thrives on feedback!
