ⓘ About Parker J. Cole
Parker deals with writer’s block either by reading a good book or by working on another project. Sometimes distracting herself from her current work in progress helps her get her thoughts reorganized. Reading another book only feeds the monster inside herself. She is always working on something, and wishes that she had a clone which would allow her to write that much faster. “Many Strange Women” is the first novel in the “Sins of the Flesh” series and was released in 2014. Solomon Greene made this deal with God. If He would send him some unattractive woman, he would marry her then and there and do what was spiritually right. After all, that was the sort of wife he needed to help him escape his sordid past. Celeste Martin made this deal with Solomon. She would be his ugly wife. Rising to prominence with the Publication Order of 7 Mafia Brides for 7 Brothers Books series, Parker J. Cole has since expanded their repertoire to include numerous successful works across various genres. Their writing style, characterized by compelling narratives and memorable characters, has earned them a dedicated global readership with millions of fans worldwide.
