Overview

He was as her friends described him: Tall, handsome, powerful; and riding on a strange, huge beast. Everyone said the horseman was their new God. When he impaled her husband with his lance, she felt horror, fear, but also adoration of his dominance and strength. She did not oppose him. She wanted him. When he ordered her submission to intercourse with him and his fellow Conquistadores, she obeyed; proud to please her new God. Nine months later she birthed a beautiful, crimson-skinned baby girl of a new bloodline race. After six centuries of additional refined mixings of Irish and Negro blood, that original Mestizo bloodline created a woman of spectacular beauty: an irresistibly voluptuous sexpot, femme fatale. She was named Cecilia. She is the CRIMSON MARIPOSA. And she anxiously awaits the arrival of Sheila. As her train hurtles westward, genius Sheila dreams and wonders. Whatever happened to Danny, her first love? Should she believe the renowned psychologist, Mrs. O'Dell? Would exploring her repressed sexuality help her understand love? When a double homicide takes place on a remote Colorado mountain, it sparks a treasure hunt that involves a wealthy heiress, a clever bank lending officer, and a sex sadist. They all first assume the mysterious, cryptic phone call was nonsensical. But it was not some innocent wrong number! It transmitted the key fateful message! And it caused their bank CEO's panic attack! Four women, now by chance thrown together, struggle to unravel a horrific terrorist plot. They need Sheila's help! But Sheila obsesses over her psychic quests: Has my soul really lived in a porn star's body? What secrets does Cecilia know that enable her to manage the nuanced differences among her lovers? And what about Cecilia causes my obsessive attraction?

Author Information

It was in memory of a dear friend that I wrote THE SECRET BUTTERFLY SERIES(TM). I tried to imagine what her life might have been like had she been born into wealth before choosing her path in life, like the Marty character in the SERIES. Through Marty, I imagined my friend came back to me and followed her dream of becoming a star of intimate artistry. Her soul now lives with mine. It moves forward through time in the personas of Series' characters Barbara, Sheila, Cecilia, Connie, Jo Anne, Linda, Pattie, Sandra, and the others. The soul that arose in my friend has long walked alongside humanity's progress. It blessed humankind from across the millennia when it assumed the personas of Astarte, Sarah, Baaleezebelle, Salome, Cleopatra, and the others.While writing, I place my mind into the story, or saga, as I did in the SECRET BUTTERFLY SERIES(TM), and I let writing become part of my life. I felt compelled to move my three-volume saga (Passion; Insanity; Resurrection) forward; advance it to its conclusion. But, where I might have concluded first eleven SERIES books after LOVE AND LOVERS(c), the eleventh book of the romantic, erotically filled Passion volume, I thought that would be disloyal to our characters' souls and their butterflies' spirits. I decided I needed to keep our precious characters alive, as they continued living through their tempest tossed Insanity Volume. Finally, I needed to reincarnate them; give them new hopes and lives. And I did. MURDER PROPERLY DONE(c); LOVE AND MADNESS(c); AND BUTTERFLY LOVE(c) complete the Insanity volume of the SERIES. AND CRIMSON MARIPOSA(c); CRIMSON AND PINK(c); LUST WHEELS(c); AND YES FOR LOVE(c), book eighteen, finish the Resurrection Volume of the SERIES. And OMEGA, THE END(c), bookends it. The three volumes complete my grand, secular antidote to religion as lived by the spiritual soul of heroine Marty.
