Bad girls need love too
I always wanted to be a bad girl. I still do. You see them all the time in films, on TV and in books, getting killed, ridiculed, or abandoned for a life of loneliness. I'm talking the evil sorceress in fairy tales, the wicked witch astride her broom, the soul sucking succubus with the hot body, or how about the corporate bitch who runs her competitors into the ground. Now those are bad girls, and if you ignore the fact they sometimes like to kill people and have it out for the goody-two-shoes heroine, they're really cool. Not to mention they have the best powers. However finding a story where these naughty vixens fall in love is so rare.
Is there some unwritten rule that only TSTL heroines should get their man? That totally sucks. I freely admit, I sometimes get tired of the whining and soul searching that comes with the heroine doing the right thing. Bad girls don't hesitate, they act--sometimes with deadly consequence, but hey, at that least they're not insipidly indecisive.
If I had to choose what kind of evil lady I'd be, I think I'd go for witch. The ability to cast spells, wear slinky black gowns and broom riding sound so freaking cool. And, if anyone messed with me, I'd turn them in to a frog. Muahahahaha! See, I've even practiced the husky, evil villainess laugh another cool thing that bad girls get to do. Ooh, and I have the bright red lipstick to go with my naughty thong panties. J
Cool looks, awesome powers, the only thing missing is a man. You see, bad girls need love too, and yet so often, if she refuses to turn over a new leaf, the hero walks away leaving her all alone. Screw that. Wicked ladies need real men, not morally upstanding dweebs. They need a guy who understands sometimes violence is the only recourse. A man who lets no one step all over him, and who's willing to flatten anyone who looks at his girl cross eyed. In other words, a bad boy--a yummy, muscled, dressed in denim and leather, hunk.
The next time you see an evil sorceress get shafted, a corporate ice queen hiding her loneliness behind pink slips, or a wicked witch turned into a puddle of goo by a TSTL heroine in ruby red shoes, give a boo. It's time we demanded that bad girls get a HEA of their own, or at the very least a man who will love her just the way she is--and kick the ass of anyone who tries to change her.
LOL, if you could be any kind of bad girl, who and what would you be? Would your evil know any bounds?
If you're looking for a story of a not-so-nice witch who gets what she deserves--an alpha of her own--then check out Wickedest Witch, now available from Liquid Silver books. I've included a blurb, but for an excerpt and more please see my website at http://www.evelanglais.com/

Evangaline is not a very nice witch, but ask her if she cares. She does however have a healthy sexual appetite, and when an uncouth shifter starts appearing in her fantasies, it's not long before she makes her erotic mind play a reality. But everyone knows a wicked witch can't fall in love, or can she?
Ryker, a hot and muscled shifter, knows his size and domineering presence intimidates women, all except for one curvy witch he just can't get out of his mind. Set to a task only the two of them can accomplish, he discovers wickedness has its uses, especially in the bedroom.
Dealing with vamps, a wedding from hell and a cackling gnome named Rumpelstiltskin, will these two wicked beings survive and, even more disturbing, decide to stay together?
