I had to write a new beginning for the scene, because it was taken out of the early middle of the book where the world, the characters, relationships, everything had already been explained, but suddenly the scene had to stand on it’s own without all the earlier pages. So, I did add a few paragraphs to introduce the world, Anita, and her relationship to Jean-Claude and Asher.
To translate, she decided to copy/paste the same intro that is in every single AB book ever because she labors under the impression that a reader must be lead by the nose to draw conclusions that should manage to be vastly apparent via context.
So I did the extra bit up front so the scene would not be quite so naked to everyone who buys the eSpecial, and then it was done.
Wait... she gets new readers that start in the middle of the series who remain interested enough to find more? Wouldn't any such readers be reading for the smut factor anyway so introductions to the harem would seem a little silly?
