Description

MR REAL is a cross-genre suspense/spy/paranormal romance novel by the author of The Disillusionists.

Cover copy:

The woman of his dreams…with the secret agent of his nightmares

Alix Gordon is a woman who doesn’t take life too seriously. What’s the fun in that? So when she stumbles across occult software that can bring any computer image to life, she conjures up lots of awesome outfits and accessories. And then, on one drunken, horny night, she conjures up Sir Kendall, the sexy TV ad spy . . . who looks exactly like Paul, the hot martial arts teacher who kicked her out of class three years ago.

Fighter Paul Reinhardt has good reason to hate Sir Kendall, the character he brought to life to land a part in a TV ad; he’d do anything to forget him. A cross country road trip seems just the thing . . . until Paul finds himself inexplicably drawn to Minnesota and is shocked to discover Sir Kendall - in the flesh - with the girl he’d once loved from afar. He barges into Alix and Sir Kendall’s love nest, determined to stop the madness - somehow.

But is super spy Sir Kendall transforming into something more dangerous anyone can imagine? And what will Sir Kendall do when Paul and Alix finally give into their mad lust for each other?

~Nicole Peeler, author of the Jane True

“Carolyn Crane takes a wild-child heroine, an MMA fighter with a dark secret, and a man who may or may not have just stepped out of a TV ad and creates a wonderful mix of magic, humor, action, and steamy sex. If you like paranormal romance with spunky heroines and hunky heroes, this is the book for you!!”

“A sexy, clever tale about getting what a girl wants - and trying to live long enough to regret it!"

-Alayna Williams, author of DARK ORACLE and ROGUE ORACLE

"Carolyn Crane has a knack for understanding the human psyche, with all its romance and dark ghosts. In Mr. Real, Crane takes us on a magical romp with an unconventional heroine caught between two men – and the twin lures of fantasy and making it all real."
