Billionaire in Hiding, Book One: Dusk in the Vines

By D.C. Chagnon

Book One: Dusk in the Vines

Madeleine Norwood, lifetime resident of Rosiln Woods, had a day that goes from bad, to worse, to outright far-fetched. Nothing notable happens within her sleepy town hidden in the forest—until two mysterious brothers arrive in town. Julian, an upbeat and forward 20-something, and his elder brother James, a mysterious, brooding man are inexplicitly tied to Madeleine—in ways she herself could never have imagined. Her sleepy life is transformed overnight as a looming sense of danger settles in the air.  As she grows closer to the auburn-haired, charismatic Julian, James’ persona darkens.  The more Madeleine is tangled within their web, one stark truth comes to light: the charming two of them are hiding a secret—one that will change Madeleine’s life overnight. In the midst of this shadowy situation, Madeleine finds herself torn between her ingrained daily life, and her deeply permeating curiosity—and her blooming affection for these foreign strangers. But, she finds that the closer she gets to Julian, the more questions flood in and add upon each other.

For Madeleine, at least one thing is certain: things will never be the same again.

D.C. Chagnon

D.C. Chagnon was born in a quiet little town in Tennessee, and this was also the place where her love for the romantic and exciting was born. The author remembers days spent running on hillsides and swimming in brooks, and endless hours spent reading books that were her escape from the mundane. It was on a fateful summer day when the teenager wrote her first romantic short story as a submission for a local paper’s contest. Signed under a pseudonym, her story that told of summer and the sun, of a friendship gone beyond its limits, and heart-aching tragedy, garnered praise and the first prize for the young story-teller. She was eighteen, and on that day, she decided that she wanted to write for the rest of her life. The author is happily enjoying the married life with her husband of five years and their two young children. She is an avid traveler and has sought every opportunity to tour places halfway across the globe. While at home, the author makes it a full-time commitment to be a mom, but also spends a lot of her time coming up with new story material. She is often heard saying how difficult it is to balance being a wholesome house mom while writing erotic fiction on the side. While she outwardly claims her inspirations to be the likes of renowned novelists Lisa Kleypas and Anne Rice, she does admit to being a fan of the more current works such as those of the Fifty Shades of Grey author and the Twilight series. On her off times, she can also be seen reading the more wholesome works by Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams.
