paranormal ability, what would it be? </b>I’d love to be able to teleport.<span> </span>Think of how much easier it’d be to
travel!<span> </span>No lines, no crowds, no
airplanes (I really hate flying).<span> </span>It’d
be awesome to just pop into my parents’ place, to visit reader events, to hit

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is one thing
your readers would be most surprised to learn about you? </b>Hmm, maybe that
before I began writing, I earned my living as a tarot reader and Reiki
master.<span> </span>I started reading the tarot when
I was 17, and spent a few years working the psychic fair circuit and building
my client list.<span> </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>When writing
descriptions of your hero/ine, what feature do you start with? </b>I always
seem to start with their hair.<span> </span>The
color, the style, the degree of trendiness, it’s such a huge point of
self-expression and always seems to set the tone for who that character
is.<span> </span>For example, Harper Maclean, the
heroine in CALL TO HONOR, has blonde, shoulder length hair in an edgy, layered
style. <span> </span>To mean, that was a nod to her
being a California girl with the beach-styled hair, but length was mom-easy, versatile
and the style fashionable, which fit her career as an interior decorator.<span> </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Are you a plotter or
a pantser? </b>I’m closer to a plotter than a pantser, but I never actually
solidify my plot until the story is about 1/4 of the way solid.<span> </span>I start with a generally idea of who I think
the characters are and a pretty good handle on the story question/plot and
where it’ll end up.<span> </span>I write those first
few chapters over and over again, honing the characters, intensifying their
conflicts, getting to know their personality at the same time I’m really
getting a handle on the actual plot.<span>
</span>Usually by that one-quarter mark, I have a good enough feel for it that
I can create my plotting board, which is a huge white board sectioned into
chapters that I fill with colored post-it notes.<span> </span>Yes, I color code my plotting board. It makes
me happy! <span> </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Did you learn
anything<span> </span>from writing this book? If so,
what? </b>Over the course of writing CALL TO HONOR, I learned a lot more about
military missions than I’d know before.<span>
</span>I also learned how fabulous it felt to write a longer story.<span> </span>At over 90k words, CALL TO HONOR is
considerably longer than my Blaze books were.<span>
</span>Having that much more room was fabulous.<span>
</span>It let me really delve into Diego and Harper’s pasts, into their issues

is inscribed in the DNA of every SEAL and Lieutenant Diego Torres is no
exception. But with a team member killed—and the body missing— Diego’s honor is
sorely tested. Now his career and reputation are on the line, and a traitor is
hiding among them. Diego wants answers...and only one woman has them.</span></span></div>

Maclean has two priorities—raising her son Nathan and starting a new life. Her
mysterious new neighbor may be impossibly charming, but Diego asks too many
questions about her past—and about the father of her child. Questions she fears
will reveal her burning attraction for Diego, and ultimately put them all in
danger’s path.</span></span></div>

to the solar plexus. He’d never gone for the good-girl look, and there was
nothing particularly sexy about what she was wearing. The turquoise pleated
skirt flared in a way that made her waist look miniscule and her cream-colored
top looked like a silky T-shirt, but both were a little too generous with the

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: 10.0pt;">Great question. I would want Selena Gomez to be Lauren because Selena has this wonderful innocence to her and I’d want Jonathan to be played by Dev Patel or Diego Luna. Diego and Dev have a kindness to them but an undercurrent of intensity. That’s how I see Jonathan and that’s what attracts Lauren to him. I’d love PINK to play the secondary character who befriends Lauren. She’d be AMAZING.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

His thin black sweater provided a hint of the muscles underneath it. A grey suit jacket hung from his shoulders. The creases in his black suit pants followed the bend of his knees.

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #222222;">A concert violinist and musical prodigy, Francesca Giordano is internationally acclaimed and always in the spotlight—right where she doesn’t want to be. Not after she’s witnessed a murder. Suddenly on the run, she finds her way to Bristol, Tennessee, and to the music club Acoustics. There, as “ Chessie Hope,” she can hide out in the open. But with this newest gig comes a different kind of danger. Older and impossibly sexy, bluegrass singer Cooper Barstow is everything she’s ever wanted in a man, and his daughters are just as easy to love. Yet Francesca cannot enjoy the luxury of such a relationship, not even if he could protect her from the men on her trail or if she could be honest with him about who she is. Cooper is as wounded as he is strong, and he needs someone who will stay by his side for the rest of his life. Just as Francesca does. And the smoke on the mountains and the haze of desire almost make her believe that could happen.</span></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Cooper stood, not moving, as Chessie went up on her tiptoes and placed her lips against his. She held his face in her hands and nibbled, touching and seeking in the gentlest of caresses before deepening their embrace. At first Cooper let her take the lead, but as hiss torment became unbearable he crushed her to him, her soft curves fitting just right into his hard, muscled body like a cool drink of water in the parched Arizona desert. She wrapped her arms around his body and held him even closer. Her nipples stiffened with desire and poked into his chest. Cooper was overcome with longing. He wanted this woman so badly he could taste it.</span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 105%; margin-bottom: 8pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Author of thirty romance novels, Emily Mims combined her writing career with a career in public education until leaving the classroom to write full time. The mother of two sons and grandmother of six, she and her husband Charles live in central Texas but frequently visit grandchildren in eastern Tennessee and Georgia. She plays the piano, organ, dulcimer, and ukulele and belongs to two performing bands. She says, “I love to write romances because I believe in them. Romance happened to me and it can happen to any woman-if she’ll just let it.”</span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">It’s been a year of tragic loss and difficult decisions for widow Rose Raber. She thought providing for her young daughter was the greatest challenge she faced. Until her dying mother revealed Rose was adopted—and her birth mother is someone with much to lose if the secret comes out. As Rose struggles to reconcile the truth with her faith—and her troubling curiosity—outgoing newcomer Matthias Wagler is another surprise she didn’t expect. His optimism and easy understanding inspire her. And his prospective partnership with wealthy deacon Saul Hartzler promises a possible new life for them—together. But with this second chance comes yet another revelation for all involved.</span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">When Saul’s wife unexpectedly turns up at Rose’s new job, their bond as mother and daughter is instant and unmistakable. It isn’t long before an unforgiving Saul discovers the truth, threatening Matthias’s livelihood and Rose’s future. Now with more than just their happiness at stake, Rose and Matthias must find the strength and courage to stand strong—and trust God’s enduring miracles of motherhood, forgiveness, and love.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Pausing at the door of the downstairs bedroom, where Mamma was staying now because she could no longer climb the stairs, Rose nipped her lip. Mamma’s face and arms were so withered and pale. It was a blessing that her pain relievers kept her fairly comfortable. When Mamma realized Rose had returned, she beckoned with her hand. “Let’s talk about this before I lose my nerve,” she murmured. “There’s a stationery box . . . in my bottom dresser drawer. The letters inside it . . . will explain everything.”</span></span></div>

In all her life, she’d never known Mamma to keep secrets—but the shadows beneath Mamma’s eyes and the fading of her voice warned Rose that this was no time to demand an explanation. Rose sat down in the chair beside the bed again, leaning closer to catch Mamma’s every faint word.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Many moons ago—like, in 1983 while she was still a school librarian—Charlotte Hubbard sold her first story to True Story. This launched her into writing around seventy of those “true confessions” stories over the years, and she’s been a slave to her overactive imagination ever since. Over the course of her writing career, she has sold nearly 50 books—most recently, Amish romance series she’s written as Charlotte Hubbard or Naomi King. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Charlotte lived in Missouri for most of her life, so her Amish stories are set in imaginary Missouri towns. These days she lives in St. Paul, MN with her husband of 40+ years and their Border collie, Vera.</span></span></div>

I missed out on the natural title gene, but I’m getting better! I looked to music for inspiration with <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Waiting for a Girl Like You</i>. The novellas inside got some help from my husband. He really liked <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Proper Care and Feeding of a Broken Heart</i> (the first novella).</span></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I go from neat-freak organized to random chaos. I use big chart paper to map a series but have limited wall space. I have two Viking romance series going here in one picture. I also track word count on multiple projects (my messy system by the light switch…I color in an excel spreadsheet cell for every 1000 words on a WIP).</span></span></div>

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not writing? </span></b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">I like to experiment with cooking when I don’t have to do the dishes.

Who is your favourite actor? </span></b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">I don’t have one. I admire Brandi Chastain, Amy Adams, Christian Bale, Chris Pratt, Tom Hardy, Tom Hanks…</span></span></span></div>

What is your favourite song? </span></b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Don’t have one. My music quirk is I love ‘70s songs.</span></span></span></div>

What books might we find on your bedside table? </span></b><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Right now for fiction I’m reading Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiwiss and for non-fiction I’m reading Deep Work by Cal Newton.</span></span></span></div>

If she only kept her mouth shut…but nothing goes as expected, including the intense blue-eyed surfer who walks through her door. Mark wants to work out a few kinks —and leave the lifestyle for good. Past mistakes still haunt him, but sweet Abbie turns Mark’s plans upside down, and two broken hearts discover honesty is the hottest aphrodisiac.</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;"><br />

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I glared at him through my bangs and hugged myself tighter. Music pulsed from the room next door, but I couldn’t say what the song was. Did they need a sound track to get going? The frazzled side of me surrendered to how little I knew about sex. Despite standing bravely, I was small and adrift on an unknown sea. </span></span></div>

I was throwing out the no names rule and for good reason. Something dawned on me. With the closed door, it was just the two of us. This square room was my island. Control could go either way. Surfer Man’s mouth opened, but an adrenaline rush took over and my hip cocked sideways. In the world of fight or flight, my body tensed with its version of fight. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">“Oh, let me guess.

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I liked a few of them. Reading the books was one thing. Living them was another.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I exhaled slowly, blowing bangs off my forehead. No sense in telling him what I really thought. Talk about a mood killer. No man wanted to hear me say this place is for losers who can’t find a girl. Yet, this guy was no loser. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Lured in by a bad ex-boyfriend and the moonlight of Miami, Meg O’Hara is trapped in a nightmare situation, waiting tables for a crime boss and fearing for her life. When undercover FBI agent Christopher Shaunessy offers her a way out, she seizes it. Getting the goods on Salazar Moreno might not be easy, but she’ll do anything to be freed from her servitude and Moreno’s sexual advances, even if it means moving in with the charismatic agent.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Chris Shaunessy pretends to be Meg’s lover in order to keep her safe, but he steels his heart against further involvement. Passion has no place in the sordid world of organized crime. And yet, the closer they get to cracking the case, the stronger his feelings for the spirited waitress shine. It’s a dangerous game he’s playing, and taking Meg in his arms for real could prove a fatal misstep . . .</span></span></div>

If the hotel manager saw her here again she’d be toast. He’d more than toss her out. Threats to call the police had been thrown at her for months now. Although in her case, that might be a better deal.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">With her eyes trained on his location and the Miami sun beating down on her exposed skin, Meg backed along the water’s edge attempting to leave the area before he spotted her. She needed to shower the chlorine out of her tangled hair and change for work soon. He looked in her direction and she rushed behind the closest object. It was six-foot-plus of blond-haired gorgeousness. The man’s eyes were glued to something on the upper deck.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Her boss was sitting there with one of his expensive bimbos. Did Blondie like that type? Maybe he wouldn’t notice her little game of Hide and Seek. She leaned around him, ducking back when she saw the Pool Nazi still present. Getting caught was not an option. She already owed more than she could ever repay.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Are you okay?” Forest green eyes stared down at her, puzzled. Would he buy that she was simply looking for shade? He was big enough to provide it. With strong hands, he reached for her shoulders and Meg reflexively batted them away. She got enough of people groping her at work. Scorching curses froze before erupting from her mouth as the hotel manager moved, staring in their direction. Her mind kicked into overdrive, scrambling for a way to hide in plain sight.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">“Sorry,” she squeaked. Grabbing the man’s head, she planted her mouth solidly on his. Short, thick strands of hair tickled her fingers. Firm lips yielded no resistance to the increased pressure of her mouth. Better make this look good.</span></span></div>

Maybe too good? Slowly he pulled her closer with his muscular arms. Her eyes flew open and she broke the connection. His hair-covered chest was too close for comfort. And much too tempting. Distance, she needed distance. Her eyes darted around, seeing no signs of the manager. A sigh escaped. Time to make her exit as well.</span></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Kari Lemor was one of those children who read with a flashlight under the covers. Once she discovered her mom’s stash of romance novels, there was no other genre to even consider. For years, she had stories stewing in her mind, stories of love and happily ever after. But writing wasn’t something she ever liked in school. Of course, no one ever asked her to write a story about a couple falling in love. Now that her children are grown, she can concentrate on penning tales of dashing heroes who ride to the rescue and feisty heroines who have already saved themselves. Please visit her at karilemor.com and on Twitter and Facebook.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: small;">The ago-old story of what happens when a foul-mouthed, romance impaired heroine with no edit button and a predilection for hot sex is faced with her worst nightmare–a purpose.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Ari Katz is intelligent, driven, and will make an excellent demon hunter once initiated into the Brotherhood of David. However, this book is about his twin Nava: a smart-ass, self-cultivated hot mess, who is thrilled her brother is stuck with all the chosen one crap.</span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: small;">When Nava half-drunkenly interrupts Ari’s induction ceremony, she expects to be chastised. What she doesn’t expect is to take her brother’s place among the–until now–all-male demon hunters. Even worse? Her infuriating leader is former rock star Rohan Mitra, whose sudden retirement in his early twenties now seems a lot less mysterious.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Convinced that her twin still has a shot at his destiny, Nava hatches a plan to convince the Brotherhood to bring the other Katz sibling into the fold. It’s too bad Rohan’s guarding her so closely that she might not be able to put it into action.</span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "sans-serif"; font-size: small;">And it’s really too bad Rohan’s exactly what Nava’s always wanted: the perfect bad boy fling with no strings attached, because he may also be the one to bring down her carefully erected emotional shields. That’s as dangerous as all the evil fiends vying for the bragging rights of killing the only female ever chosen for Demon Club–or the one demon in particular out for payback.</span></span></div>

I snatched up the crystal decanter, sloshing the liquid into the glass conveniently placed next to it. Once in a while, a girl could actually catch a break. </span></span></div>

The myriad of lit candles seemed a bit much for my brother’s romantic encounter, but wine drinking trumped curiosity so I chugged the booze back. My entire body cheered as the cloyingly-sweet alcohol hit my system, though I hoped it wasn’t Manischewitz because hangovers on that were a bitch. I’d slugged back half the contents when I saw my mom on the far side of the room clutch her throat, eyes wide with horror. Not her usual, “you need an intervention” horror. No, her expression indicated I’d reached a whole new level of screw-up. </span></span></div>

Okay. Let’s see. For Rose, I’d definitely have Jennifer Love Hewitt, but the sportiest, most toned version of her possible. I definitely had her face in mind when creating Rose. And for Garrett? Someone like Adrien Grenier, but a longer-haired version. We need the longish, wavy dark hair, those bright eyes, and chiseled jaw…*sigh*. Yeah. </span><span style="font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 10.0pt; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Way #1: Unprovoked and completely out of sequence with the writing of the book, which sometimes produces a title that SOUNDS great but might not really hit on the core of the story or, Way #2: Desperate polling of beta readers, family members, and friends, hoping that something that anyone says will spur an idea that makes even remote sense. I am HORRIBLE with titles. I just want to hire a permanent Title-Maker. They can come live in my house and eat meals with us. It’ll be fun, I swear, if any of you reading this want to apply for the position. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I have an organizational system that only I can understand. It involves lots of post-it notes, papers arranged into precise and abundant piles, and lots of reminders hanging on a bulletin board that stares at me. Plus, if I ever dare close my planner, my life falls apart, so it must constantly be splayed open, hogging all available desk space. It’s rough, folks. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

My day-to-day sees a lot of yoga and cooking in addition to writing. I think really my primary tasks as a human are: write words, roll around on yoga mat, and soften vegetables in sauté pan. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I don’t even think we really made it in my family growing up. Somehow, it just became associated with comfort food and sinful delicious awesomeness. I make a mean beef stroganoff, too. Which is weird, because I rarely eat meat and I certainly don’t like to cook it! This is the one weird exception. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I used to think that spring was my favorite season, but when I get to thinking about it, I love each and every season here in Ohio. I came to realize this only when I moved abroad and lived a couple different 2-season locations (namely: Peru, and the coast of Chile). So while I originally thought I wanted to escape winter entirely, I realized I needed winter (and do like it) to allow me to more fully appreciate all of the other seasons. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Over the past few years, my biggest obsessions were with <i>Sons of Anarchy </i>and <i>Downton Abbey. </i>But beyond my occasional dalliances, I am horribly oblivious to popular series and other rumblings in the entertainment world. Usually when someone asks me “So do you remember that episode in….?” I give them a stern look and say “No.” And then they gasp incredulously because they realize I’ve never seen <i>Orange Is The New Black</i>, or <i>Game of Thones, </i>or whatever it is. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

That movie really shook me when I first saw it. I try to watch it at least once a year. Like my annual holiday celebration with Leonardo DiCaprio and the crew cavorting through the multi-layered dreamscapes. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I am a FREAK for leggings. Seriously, I don’t even own jeans anymore. Isn’t that crazy? Some people have really strict, bizarre feeling about leggings and their appropriate use within society, which I find even crazier. Like “people above this age can’t wear leggings” or “leggings are for X”. I mean, hey—they’re the most comfortable thing in the world. Why WOULDN’T I wear them? <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

I’m reading Eckhart Tolle’s “A New Earth”, and I JUST finished Helena Hunting’s hilarious and super-steamy romance “Pucked”. And beyond that, I have like three different stacks of books that I’m <i>getting to</i>, and I have been <i>getting to </i>for years. Ah, the never-ending TBR pile! <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Rose Delaney is a baby bounty hunter, rescuing children from fugitive ex-spouses. All she wants is to return a recovered child to its mother and get back to her regimented solitary life. But when a snow storm leaves her and baby Emmy stranded, Rose has no choice but to lean on the ruggedly handsome rescuer, who thinks the baby is hers. Holed up in their mountain resort-under-construction and unable to contact Emmy’s mother, Rose's priority is hitting the road—even if Garrett’s erotic touch entices her to ride out the storm.</span></div>

had the misfortune of breaking her ankle. The only available apartment to
convalesce in is a derelict mansion just outside of town. The tenants prefer to
keep to themselves except when sneaking strange dolls into her rooms. Suffering
from loss of memory after a horrific event destroyed her biological family,
Jody clutches at straws trying to find out who she is and why some people in
the house leave her clues to get out or get murdered. Find out if Jody regains
her memory, what happened to her family and who, among her friends, is actually
her enemy, working to see her killed.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Not only that, but her jaw hung open when what met her eyes
not only astounded her but made her feel faint. There in black and white were
the two little girls from her dream. And their names were Lucy and Alice. My
God, how can this be? Talking to herself, she shook her head. “There is not a
living soul who will believe me. How can this possibly be happening to me?” A
thump from her bedroom brought her out of her trancelike state and her head
turned. Holding the book, she kept her glance on the hallway leading to her
room. Silence. Once again a thump, louder this time, hit her ears. She closed
the book, placed it in her lap, and slowly wheeled toward her bedroom. A small
current of electricity coursed through her bones as she turned the corner into
the hall. A few feet later she entered her bedroom, the one she simply could
not sleep in, and noticed there, lying on the floor was a doll. She wheeled
closer and picked it up. Jody dropped the doll onto the ground as quickly as
she had picked it up with an instinctual impulse to rid oneself of something
dreadful. It fell, face up, its blonde hair splayed out, its mouth open in a
grotesque grimace with half a tongue cut out. Staring deeply at the doll Jody
caught her breath. There was something about the doll that confused then
frightened her. The doll, its left foot askew, looked just like her, down to
the broken ankle.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">That’s a hard question because I don’t think of my books in movie form. I rarely picture the characters as movie stars for some reason. However, I consulted friends who’ve read the book to see what they think. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">They’re usually a group undertaking, bouncing off ideas until something sticks like spaghetti on the wall. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Twisted Luck</i> really fit the book.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I have a desk against the wall under my pantry storage area, and it’s covered in a lot of stuff including dust! It needs decluttering. For fun stuff, I have a bird’s nest made from the tail hairs of two horses I know, a glow in the dark skeleton that found his way into my pocket after picking up a Halloween mess (it wasn’t something illegal though my mind makes it out to be grand theft skeleton). </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I don’t get a lot of free time, but I’m teaching our older horse to drive (pull a carriage) this spring. I started last fall and he is a blast! Very smart.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Purple, but I love blue and greens, too. I’m a Pisces, so all those watery colors make sense! I have strawberry blonde hair, so a love of pink clashed with my really ruddy cheeks and hair. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I love Taco Bell. But homemade, I love mac and cheese and apple pie with a crumb topping.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Autumn. I live in New England, so I love the changing leaves, the crisp air but warm days, the pumpkins and Halloween. I was married in October, and it was so fun to decorate with stalks of dried corn and gourds.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Lucifer! I started watching after Twisted Luck was written because I was terrified it would be too close to my story. It’s not, and I love the storyline and the acting. Tom Ellis is amazing and so sexy. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">What is your favourite movie?</span></b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Pretty Woman. I love Julia Roberts and Richard Gere. The movie is so classic romance. I love that she wants the fairy tale at the end. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I don’t really have a favorite, which is pretty boring. I don’t watch a ton of TV or movies. However, I really admire Jennifer Lawrence. She’s very talented, bright, funny, and honest. Ooh I also like Jennifer Garner. Same reasons!</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">What is your favourite song?</span></b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">It depends on the day and the book. Right now, Something Just Like This by The Chainsmokers and Cold Play is on my list of favorites. I love U2’s With or Without You, though. It’s something I listen to for books and have fond memories of from my teen years. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">What is your favourite comfort clothing attire?</span></b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I’m a jeans and T-shirt girl with New Balance sneakers. I’ve just started wearing LuLaRoe dresses and shirts to my part time job in a real estate office, and it’s very comfortable! </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">What books might we find on your bedside table?</span></b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Most of the books by my bed are either my personal novels (in the sale box underneath the table) or belong to authors I’ve edited. My Kindle is full of a mix of romance, erotic romance, new adult and historicals.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 10.0pt;">Describe yourself in three words.</span></b></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">My three words were tired, overworked, and chilly. And old. It’s my birthday on the day I’m writing this, so I feel really old. However, I asked my friend what she would say, and she said sassy, creative, and caring. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: Cambria;">All I wanted was luck—the good kind. I’d lost my job, a jerk hacked my bank account, and I caught my best friend screwing my fiancé. When stood up by my Internet date in a bar, I met the perfect man—tall, dark, and handsome in the most expensive suit. He was out of my league, but I didn’t want forever. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">He leaned closer and practically whispered, “Say it anyway.”</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">I licked my lips, unable to tear my gaze from his chocolaty one. “I—” I licked my lips again. “I’d sell my soul for good luck.”</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">“Would you?” He leaned forward on his elbows, interested and eager for my answer.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">“Would you?” I countered, shocked by his words and that I’d even contemplate this to begin with. People didn’t sell their souls. I didn’t believe in God, Satan, hell, or heaven. When I was little, God hadn’t helped my mother or me when we’d needed him most. I sure as hell didn’t see any help on this horizon.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Now I sat a little taller. Had this guy been through hell and back? No way could someone fake that look, the one of cold despair. I knew it too well. I had seen it on my mother’s eyes, viewed it in the mirror when I gazed at myself. I had thought Mr. Perfect hot and out of my league, but this…maybe this soft admission put him square in my playing field.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small; mso-fareast-font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT;">Mia Downing started creating heroes at age four, but her heroes back then rode ponies to the rescue and only kissed her on the cheek. Today, Mia's heroes still rescue those in need, but the price of their toys and the expertise of their seduction leads to a whole lot more. When Mia isn't busy creating new stories for her readers she fills in as an underwear model for a prestigious lingerie company. She also lives in New England with her family, and enjoys horses and knitting.</span></span></div>

She was the hit entertainment of two family parties. No clown suits were involved.</span></span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: #222222;">Divorcee, Eryka Demonte, wants to find the sexual gratification that had been lacking in her marriage. So she’s willing to try anything, including signing up to meet two potential lovers at what used to be an abandoned resort in West Caicos. Now run by the reclusive Ms. Calypso, Club Ecstasy Caicos boasts of the most lavish accommodations and sinful temptations. Eyrka just prays the resort’s owner knows her business, because Eryka’s in desperate need of someone with the right touch. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #222222;">Business partners and lovers, Luca Reed and Dre Bennet are anxious to celebrate their upcoming anniversary. Together for nearly twenty years, they want something special…and naughty. Dre thinks he’s found it when he receives a mysterious email from a Ms. Calypso. She’s preparing to open her newest exotic resort and would like them to come and test out the amenities. Eager for a tropical vacation complete with a beautiful woman, both men agree, never expecting they’ve been set up by a matching making Goddess with an agenda of her own.</span></span></span></div>

Behind him, David aka Davvy Amboise, the other half of the duo, crossed his arms over his chest, his expression completely closed off. For once the helpmate she’d gifted Warren with, was siding with his captain. Maybe she shouldn’t have rejected their ultimatum out of hand. But what did they expect? She was a goddess — the mighty Calypso— the owner of half a dozen hedonistic sex resorts scattered throughout the Caribbean! What did she know about human love? </span></span></div>

They’d be done. </span></span></div>

What exactly does that mean? Well, since I've always marched to the beat of different drum: it means that I get to take my unique life experiences - like putting around in the garage with my dad, or driving a train when I was ten, to create worlds where the heroines aren't necessarily June Clever, but are strong independent women who may stand on their own two feet, but long to submit to the right man. Whether it's two friends who realize there is more than friendship between them or the sexy alien who captures his unwilling slave's heart, sparks are sure to fly! My imagination has no bounds or at least none I've found yet! </span></span></div>

She’d been doing that a lot lately. Being sick, but the occasion now was nothing to do with the nausea that had plagued her each morning with regular monotony and which she dreaded might be her worst nightmare: another child. Lord Debenham’s child. She contoured her slender waist and closed her eyes, reflecting on how recently she’d got her body back. The body that drove men wild. She hadn’t intended ever to become pregnant again.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Beverley was seventeen when she bundled up her first 500+ page romance and sent it to a publisher. Rejection followed swiftly. Drowning one’s heroine on the last page, she was informed, was not in line with the expectations of romance readers.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">After a whirlwind romance with a handsome Norwegian bush pilot she met in Botswana, Beverley discovered her “Happy Ever After”, saved her heroine from drowning in her next manuscript and had her first Regency romance published in 2009.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Since then, she’s written more than fifteen sizzling historical romances laced with mystery, intrigue and suspense under the name Beverley Oakley.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">She also writes psychological historicals, and Colonial-Africa-set romantic suspense, as Beverley Eikli.</span></span></div>

How do you come up with the titles of your books? </b>I think about a major theme or location in the story and use that as the title. In Visible Through Darkness, Jade is just existing in life. She doesn’t have any friends or family. Then one day, she gets pulled into this sort of in-between world made of darkness. She saves Serin and her life changes after that. It’s not all positive but it’s much better than where she came from. Jade is really seen for the first time in years. </span></span></div>

<b>What does your writing space look like? </b>I used to write on the small couch with my laptop either on my lap or a table. But I started having back pains. Now, my writing space is a desk. On my wall, I put up story notes for easy access. I also have map. These notes are for my novel length stories in The Merging Worlds series. My phone and tablet are always nearby so I can keep up with social media. I have quotes on my wall for those tough days. </span></span></div>

<b>What do you enjoy doing when you’re not writing? </b>I love photography. I can take a lot of photos just by walking around my neighborhood. I’m also bad at organizing these photos. Now, I have a couple thousand images on my computer and they’re eating my hard drive space. My computer is crying, “I need more space.” When I’m not writing, I’m deleting bad photos so my computer can stop acting up. </span></span></div>

We have beautiful white and pink cherry blossom trees. I love taking love walks around my neighborhood with my camera. At my park, all the cool animals start to come out. </span></span></div>

<b>What is your favourite television show? </b>I mostly binge watch YouTube videos like Markiplier’s game playthroughs and Screen Junkies’ Honest Trailers. I also enjoy documentaries about old British houses. They’re so inspiring. I’m current watching Escape to the Country on Netflix. Since I’m a huge anime fan, I watch Days when I’m not binging YouTube videos. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your favourite comfort clothing attire? </b>Converse. I generally don’t spend a lot of money of clothes but I won’t think twice about dropping $80 for a pair of converse. They aren’t the plain ones either. My shoes will have some awesome art on the sides. A while ago, I went to the converse store and got a custom design put on my shoes. I love those shoes! </span></span></div>

An unusual call leads her to Serin, a prisoner trapped in darkness for twenty years. Saving him leads Jade to a world for people with powers. A world her parents were once a part of. Jura, the once vibrant world, is dying. The magic is leaving the land. Jade and Serin have no homes to go back to, but they move forward with hope because they're no longer alone.</span></span></span></div>

She straddled his chest and beat her fist and her frustrations into his face. No one would care what she did to him. He made her relive everything this world represented and everything she couldn’t have. Her fists burned. No one would care. People were supposed to care. He wore a wedding ring. He had a wife and maybe children. This world didn’t raise people to honor such commitments. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: #222222;">“Barely-not-starving” Denver artist and cancer survivor Claire Martin has almost given up finding an older man with a youthful spirit when she meets charismatic New York soul singer Robert Silver of the legendary band Deep Blue. She soon learns that hero worship can be dangerous, especially when the object of her desire comes with a disturbing past.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #222222;">Robert is smart and sexy with a self-deprecating sense of humor, but he’s also a man who has suffered from panic attacks, drug abuse, a well-publicized stint in rehab and the death of his wife, screenwriter Elaine Jordan. When his demons resurface on tour, jeopardizing his voice and the band’s future, Claire must decide if she’s willing to take the biggest risk of her life—betting her future on a troubled man.</span><span style="color: black;"></span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">What is a young Worthington woman to do when the man of her dreams is not who she thinks he is?</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">This season, all eyes are on the Earl of Worthington’s spirited, beautiful sister, Lady Louisa Vivers. Many gentlemen are vying for her attention in and around the ton. Yet, Louisa longs for someone who can take her beyond the ballroom—a man who is worldly, adventurous, and passionate. She won’t settle for just any suitor. She wants her true soul mate—and she’ll know him when she sees him.</span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: small;">Is Gideon, the Duke of Rothwell, him? The moment he and Louisa meet, they share a powerful attraction. Rides at sunrise and waltzes at dusk follow. Finally, Gideon can no longer resist the urge to embrace her, and Louisa is sure he will ask for her hand. But Gideon believes he is in no position to marry. The Rothwell estate has gone bankrupt, a scandal simmers in its wake, and he has nothing left to offer. Now, he must decide if he will let pride stand in the way of true love—or if he will risk everything, and let the lady decide for herself…</span></span></div>

Gideon, Duke of Rothwell, was certain he was the only rider at this hour of the morning. Needing the calm a hard ride gave him, he thundered down the empty carriage way. Suddenly, from out of nowhere, a dark bay burst through the mist, disturbing his solitude. Yet it was the massive dog, almost the size of a pony, keeping pace with the horse that caught his notice.</span></span></div>

Her cheeks were pink from the cool air and a smile graced her lush rose lips. Their gazes collided and held. As if they were the only two people on earth. In that second, Gideon felt as if he would tumble into the vivid blue of the rider’s eyes that reminded him of lapis.</span></span></div>

She has just finished her first series, The Marriage Game, and her new series, The Worthingtons, began in April 2016.</span></span></div>

Wilde brothers are addicted to the rush of adventure. But one of them is about
to learn no matter how often you look for danger, you don’t want danger finding
you.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">For extreme skier
Tripp Wilde, pushing the limits is what he lives for. Unfortunately, the
inherent risk takes a toll on his body. After an injury sidelines him, he ends
up in the care of his little sister’s best friend, physical therapist Hannah
Ryder—who has grown up in all the right ways since they last met. </span></span></div>

</span></span><div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Hannah doesn’t mix
business with pleasure, even though she harbored a maddening crush on the
irresistible Tripp years before. So, while Tripp tries every slick maneuver he
knows to bed her, Hannah uses her own moves to keep the hotshot skier cooled
off while trying to control her own growing desire for him. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">After the pair
witness what they think may be a murder on the slopes, along with the men
responsible, no one believes their story. But when a series of unlikely
accidents suggests they are being targeted, the two will have to trust in each
other like never before if they are going to survive.</span></span></div>

</span></span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">When
the door to his hospital room opened, Tripp didn’t bother to glance up from the
text he was trying to send one-handed. He fumbled the phone and swore then
tossed it down on the bed. “Damn it. This sucks. I feel like a freaking
invalid.” </span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">

</span></span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">His
chin came up as his gaze shot toward the doorway. Not Jake, who’d left to get
something to eat and promised to come back later to drive him home. Hannah
Ryder. His little sister’s old college roommate. Once in a while, when he was
actually home and not to the far corners of the world, he caught sight of Hannah
around town, but they’d never been anything but casual acquaintances at best.
From the way her golden eyes narrowed on him, Tripp got the feeling she could
take him or leave him…and would prefer the latter.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">“No,
you weren’t.” She advanced into the room and stopped a yard short of his bed.
Hands tucked into the pockets of her down jacket, she regarded him steadily.
“How’re you feeling?” </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Strong
was the word that sprang to mind as he studied Hannah. Those golden eyes
reflected intelligence in their depths along with a mental toughness. Model
tall but without scrawny angles, this woman looked capable of taking down any
man stupid enough to mess with her without permission. Not that he’d ever try. </span></span></span></div>

</span></span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Tripp
let out a breath. “Uh, I’m feeling okay. A little loopy from the pain meds. I
imagine my shoulder will hurt like hell when they wear off.” </span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">“Probably,
but they’ll give you more drugs to manage any discomfort. I ran into a friend
on the nursing staff out in the hall and got the basic facts. No fractures.
That’s great.” </span></span></span></div>

scowled. “The dislocated shoulder is bad enough.” </span></span></span></div>

only a mild concussion. You were extremely lucky. You could easily have been
killed.” </span></span></span></div>

rolled his eyes. “Aren’t you Miss Glass Half-full. Lucky would have been not
getting caught in the avalanche. Really lucky would have been finishing my run
before the cornice broke free.” </span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Her
golden cat eyes darkened to the color of her tawny-brown hair as she tucked a
stray lock behind one ear. “I’ll report back to Eden that you’re not going to
drop dead anytime soon…unless one of the nurses gets fed up with your bad mood
and kills you.”</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Write what
you know. Jannine Gallant has taken this advice to heart, creating characters
from small towns and plots that unfold in the great outdoors. She grew up in a
tiny Northern California town and currently lives in beautiful Lake Tahoe with
her husband and two daughters. When she isn’t busy writing or being a full time
mom, Jannine hikes or snowshoes in the woods around her home. Whether she’s
writing contemporary, historical or romantic suspense, Jannine brings the
beauty of nature to her stories.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">His sister's life is at stake, and despite his wealth and power, Sheik Emir Al-Nassar feels helpless. At least heading his family's security agency provides him with resources to track down her kidnappers. But when the ace profiler he's sent turns out to be K. J.—Kate—Gelinsky, Emir is furious. Finding the kidnappers' desert hideout is dangerous enough without the distraction of a beautiful woman.</span></span></div>

And allowing desire to cloud his focus could endanger them all.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The Canadian prairies are my home and while the prairie landscape is blessed with beautiful blue skies, it also has four seasons that come on full throttle – especially winter and because of that I like to travel. Often on those trips, stories are born. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In 2011 I won my city's writing award, and was the first romance writer to do so since its inception. In 2013 my romantic suspense was a semi-finalist in the Kindle Book Awards. Published in historic romance and paranormal romance as well as romantic suspense, in February 2016, my first novel was published by Harlequin Intrigue.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">There’s no lack of places to set a story as my imagination and the too long prairie winters may find me seeking adventure. The memories of those worlds both near and far, the words of a stranger, the furtive look one man gives another, often become the catalyst for a suspenseful story with a deadly villain and an intrepid hero and heroine who must battle for their right to love or even their right to live. </span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">When not dreaming of other stories, I can be found scouting out a garage sale or two, dusting off my roller blades or just thinking about the next adventure that may be miles away or in my own backyard. </span></span></div>

would you want to play your main characters? </b>Oooo…fun! Ok, Austin Fitzgerald would be
played by a Brit actor named Aaron Taylor-Johnson.Ross Hoffman, the sexy German “Plus One”
brewer in this menage would without a single doubt be played by Chris Hemsworth.
And Evelyn Benedict, the lucky lady in the middle of this hotness sandwich
would have to be Blake Lively.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>How do you come up with the titles of your books?</b> If I set a book in the brewing world, I use
brewing terms. “TAPPED” is pretty obvious but the follow up novel is called
“LightStruck” which is what happens when a brewed beer’s taste is shocked by
sun or too much artificial light and is spoiled. For my Love Brothers series (a
family-saga style romance series about a raucous family of 4 brothers and one
sister with the last name “Love”) I used that word (Love) in every title. </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>What does your writing space look like? </b>Like wherever I am at the moment when I have
a hot second to devote to writing. That could be at my office where I am a
Realtor “by day.” Or at my kitchen table. Or at a coffee shop between real
estate appointments. Or my couch late at night. Or at a boring open house!</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>What do you enjoy doing when you’re not writing? </b>I stay pretty busy with my day job (which I
enjoy) selling houses but I also am a Bikram Yoga practitioner (it’s a
“Love/hate” thing) which I try to do at least 4 times a week. I also enjoy
walking my 2 standard poodles while listening to a book on Audible (I’m
currently in the middle of Jane Smiley’s massive, Langdon family saga and I
love it!). I also love watching sports—right now it’s basketball but during the
fall I’m divided between American and “regular” football.</span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>What is your favourite season?</b> Fall—likely a function of growing up with
college professor parents!</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>What is your favourite television show?</b> Depends, but lately I’m very partial to
Shameless on Showtime, Atlanta on FX, The Man in the High Castle on Amazon, and
good old Grey’s Anatomy.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>What is your favourite movie?</b> I’m a hard core Star Wars geek and love its
revival especially with all the strong women characters. But I would say that
of all time it would have to be Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.</span></span></div>

<b>Who is your favourite actor?</b> Right now, I’m partial to Adam Driver and always

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">
<b>What is your favourite song?</b> Anything by Simon and Garfunkel….or the Rolling
Stones but lately I’ve found myself enjoying Vampire Weekend’s song "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cape_Cod_Kwassa_Kwassa" title="Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa"><span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;">Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa</span></a>" which is from

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">When wealthy brewery owner Austin Fitzgerald meets sexy saleswoman Evelyn Benedict, angry sparks fly. They seem destined to clash, until a hot hookup in a cold beer cooler changes everything.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">For Austin, it's a life-altering moment that sets him on a path away from his birthright, while Evelyn must face her fears about committing to a man considered the playboy of the micro-brewing world. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The power of preconceived notions nearly tears them apart—until they meet up with brew master Ross, who opens their eyes to a deeper, even more erotic connection. But three strong personalities don’t always make for the best emotional mix and when a simple misunderstanding causes chaos, it’s up to Ross to repair the tattered shreds of their relationship.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>EXCERPT</b></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Sensing the heat of Evelyn’s fury as he finalized another large order, he excused himself and made his way toward the restroom. The tuning-fork sensation had morphed into a dull ache centered in his gut, which steadily made its way down to his balls.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">When he emerged—after splashing water on his face enough times to calm the hardening in his jeans—he almost plowed straight into her. He gripped her arms to keep her from falling and the impulses that had bounced around in his brain since the morning nearly brought him to his knees. He dropped his hands and looked away, swallowing back the urge to say something, anything, to convince her he wasn’t such a bad guy.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“Sorry.” </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Her voice was flat. He took a step back, stopped only when his butt hit the wall. The space between them filled with near-visible silence, but he didn’t move. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“I don’t know how I’m doing it, but the longer we work together, the more sales I make, and the more you hate me. Clue me in here, Benedict. I thought sales were the goal of the day.” He crossed his arms, holding them close to his chest so she couldn’t gauge how shaky his hands had gotten.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">She swallowed, and he watched the exquisite warm peach hue of her skin redden. Admiring the line of her neck, her jaw, the plump fullness of her lower lip as she bit it, a nervous tic he’d love to come to love, if she’d let him, Austin sensed himself falling deeper into a very scary hole. Her ongoing silence took on a life of its own.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“Well? I left my secret-sales-goal decoder ring at home. You obviously have a different agenda for today. I get it. ‘Prove to the rich boy he doesn’t have what it takes’ is fine, but we could have saved some time if you’d just told me first.”</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">She opened her lips, then pressed them together and shouldered past him. He watched, fascinated, as his hand reached out of its own accord and snagged her arm. She stopped, stared at it, then up at him. When he realized the blue of her eyes was brighter because of tears, he hesitated. Female tears always unnerved him, but his chest tightened in a thoroughly alarming way at the thought of having caused her unhappiness.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He let go. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to…”</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In a split second, her beautiful face was within inches of his. “Don’t flatter yourself. I’m just pissed off. You’ve had that effect on me since I first laid eyes on you, so yeah, I guess I set you up. But apparently, all your country-club, private-school time has been worth it. Bullshitting comes naturally to you. And that’s all this job is. A whole barrel of bullshit.”</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">She stomped away before he could speak or, even better, grab her and kiss her. The space she vacated quivered with anger. But her crisp perfume stayed in his nose and he had to clench his hands into fists to keep from shoving her up against the wall and kissing her until she saw it his way.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Amazon best-selling author, mom of three, Realtor, beer blogger, brewery marketing expert, and soccer fan, Liz Crowe is a Kentucky native and graduate of the University of Louisville currently living in Ann Arbor. She has decades of experience in sales and fund raising, plus an eight-year stint as a three-continent, ex-pat trailing spouse.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Her early forays into the publishing world led to a groundbreaking fiction subgenre, “Romance for Real Life,” which has gained thousands of fans and followers interested less in the “HEA” and more in the “WHA” (“What Happens After?”). More recently she is garnering even more fans across genres with her latest novels, which are more character-driven fiction, while remaining very much “real life.”</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">With stories set in the not-so-common worlds of breweries, on the soccer pitch, in successful real estate offices and at times in exotic locales like Istanbul, Turkey, her books are unique and told with a fresh voice. The Liz Crowe backlist has something for any reader seeking complex storylines with humor and complete casts of characters that will delight, frustrate and linger in the imagination long after the book is finished.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Don’t ever ask her for anything “like a Budweiser” or risk bodily injury.</span></span></div>

A man of humble origins, Tristan claims he tried to save him from another ruthless captain. Diana is desperate to believe he is telling the truth…and that the intoxicating desire that escalates between them is true as well. But can she trust him? Or is Tristan’s story—and his heart—nothing more than fool’s gold? Amid the haze of sensual delights and soaring ecstasy Tristan has in store for her, all will be revealed…</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">For a young woman swept into international adventure, romance can’t be far behind…</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The 1920s are in full swing when Sadie Loudon leaves her grandfather’s stodgy vicarage, and she dreams of the glamour and excitement she’s seen on the silver screen. But before she even begins work at the storied Grand Russe Hotel, she is ushered into London’s glittering nightlife by a handsome young businessman intent on introducing her to the pleasures available to a Bright Young Thing. Is it a fleeting romance…or something even more intriguing?</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Les Drake is on the lookout for Bolsheviks when he encounters sweet, sexy Sadie. A British Secret Intelligence agent, Les has more experience with the seedy underside of the city than with innocent chambermaids, but he can’t deny that Sadie tempts him. Using her as part of his cover seems like a brilliant plan until the danger of his assignment threatens what has suddenly become a love he can’t bear to lose…</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Tristan’s composure rattled Diana, his demeanor at odds with what she’d heard about him being a ruthless pirate. For nearly a year, she’d pursued him. Upon capture, she’d expected him to curse her and struggle fruitlessly against her men while she watched with great satisfaction. Instead, he’d smiled. He also seemed to care about Peter.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Impossible. No matter Tristan’s dignified manner or him claiming innocence, he was still a pirate, Welsh in the bargain, and strangely enough, liked to read. His book lay forgotten on the sand, its title embossed in gold on the cover. Homer’s Iliad, a classic far above what common folks would enjoy.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Her confusion grew. He was more than he should be, as tall and athletic as a young noble, clean too, hair and face washed, his crimson waistcoat, dark breeches, and white shirt well cared for. Moist wind separated the linen to bare his muscular chest. Perspiration glistened within those crisp curls. They begged for a woman’s touch, and later him pleasuring and protecting her in his strong embrace.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Something stirred within Diana. She pushed her foolish reaction away and met him eye-to-eye, wanting to see the devil.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He waited patiently for her next move, searching her gaze, puzzling her further.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He was an undeniably handsome man. Blond hair fell in thick waves over his forehead, and curled around his ears and on his neck. Firelight turned his bronze skin a deeper gold. Only his eyebrows were dark, same as the stubble on his upper lip, chin, and cheeks.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He smiled softly.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Her belly clenched. She needed him to be afraid, not playful or aroused, to know the suffering he’d caused. When he’d taken the merchant ship Peter served on, he’d nearly ruined her brother’s life and surely destroyed hers. It was heartache enough to have Peter foolishly run away to sea as if it were a game. Tristan’s actions had forced Peter into piracy and put the child at even greater risk. Boys younger than him had gone to the gallows for crimes that were serious or not.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Helpless with outrage, she lifted her hand to strike Tristan.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">He didn’t curse or try to defend himself from her coming blow.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Heather Hiestand was born in Illinois but her family migrated west before she started school. Since then she has claimed Washington State as home, except for a few years in California. She wrote her first story at age seven and went on to major in creative writing at the University of Washington. Her first published fiction was a mystery short story, but since then it has been all about the many flavors of romance. Heather’s first published romance short story was set in the Victorian period and she continues to return, fascinated by the rapid changes of the nineteenth century. The author of many novels, novellas and short stories, she makes her home in a small town with her husband and son and supposedly works out of her tiny office, though she mostly writes in her easy chair in the living room.</span></span></div>

made into a movie, who would you want to play your main characters?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Usually, I look at models on modeling sites, such as Ford Models or
<span>Maximum</span> Talent Agency. I don’t give much
thought to which actor or actress would fit my characters. It took some time to
think about this one. I love Sandra Bullock. Her facial structure is a good
match to Stephanie Lockhart. Based <span>on</span>
facial features again, Ryan Reynolds is a perfect match for the role of Ryan
Rogers. Ryan Reynolds hair is too dark, so he’d have to lighten it to a dirty
blond. What do you, the reader think?</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>How do you come up
with the titles of your books?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Titles can come to me right away. Or
they can be tough, such as <i>Taming the
Texas Beauty</i>. All my stories get a working title. They can be as simple as
the hero and <span>heroine's</span> name. In the
beginning, all <i>Taming the Texas Beauty</i>
files were titled “Ryan and Steph Story.” Other stories are <span>titled and</span> it sticks with the story into
publication. Sometimes I rely on my critique partners to brainstorm titles. I
do like to tie the title into the story in some <span>way.
For this story, Stephanie’s salon is named Taming Texas Beauty, and Ryan later
gives her a pet name in regards to the title.</span></span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What does your
writing space look like?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">I kind of have two writing spaces.
The first place is at the dining room table. I have a nice view of<span> the trees in my backyard, or a view of the
neighborhood through my patio door. It’s warmer sitting upstairs. To break the
habit of sitting upstairs, I removed my laptop power cord from the dining room
and gave my office a makeover. I bought a new chair, a heater, and fun
peel-and-stick wallpaper from Target. My office has no windows and is in the
darkest corner of the basement in our home. Okay, it’s not all that bad. If I
leave my office door open, the daylight shines through the patio door if the
curtains are open. I don’t leave the door open because the heat from the heater
will from escape the room. Yes, I’m selfish. Shelves hold copies of my books,
craft books, my files for writing, other writing supplies, and then the oddball
items that need a home. This past year I visited a shop that repurposes
furniture and items. I purchased two hardcover books that had been cut for
display. One is a blue letter ‘J’ for my name, and the other is white with
“Love” cutout in the middle. Framed photos, I personally took, hang on two
walls, with my book cover art framed and adorning the walls as well. I like
things organized, so it’s rare to find my office a mess.</span></span><span style="color: black;"><span> </span></span><span style="color: black;"></span></span></span>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What do you enjoy
doing when you’re not writing?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Spending time with friends and
family, scrapbooking, coloring, or watching my son or <span>the Minnesota United FC play a friendly game of soccer.</span> Basically,
anything that isn’t related to cleaning the house.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> color?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Depends on what you’re talking
about. I wear a lot of <span>black colored clothing</span>.
Usually, I stick to the dark reds, dark blues, or browns for <span>fingernail</span> color. For my <span>toes,</span> I want a summery pink color. I prefer
house colors to be neutral with accents of color, such as the front door and
shutters.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> pleasure food?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Kung Pao Chicken. It’s not a healthy
food choice, so I limit the dish for a treat now and then. The restaurant close
to my house makes it <span>spicy</span> with lots of
vegetables and a non-gravy sauce. I’ve ordered it <span>elsewhere</span> and don’t care for the light-colored, gravy type sauce
they use.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> season?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Summer. I love being warm. My
summers are short in Minnesota, but I love having all four seasons. I’d love to
live somewhere warm year round, but I’d miss the snow during the holiday. My
husband doesn’t do well with the heat, so this works. Plus, our families reside
in Minnesota.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> television show?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i><span style="color: black;">Survivor.</span></i><span style="color: black;"> So much so, that I refused to miss
it while in labor with my third child. It was a life savior, in a sense,
because my focus was on the show and not the pain. I made it through to the end
of the <span>show</span> and didn’t miss a beat.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> movie?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Oh, this is hard. How can you pick
just one? My all-time favorite Christmas movie is <i>White Christmas</i>. Sci-fy fav would be the <i>Star Wars</i> series. When it comes to picking a romance favorite,
that’s really tough because I <i>love</i>
romance, but <i>A Good Year</i> with Russell
Crowe is one I own and have watched multiple times. For a teen movie, any John
Hughes movie will work for me. After all, I lived the 80’s.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Who is your <span>favourite</span> actor?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">I first fell in love with Harrison
Ford when I saw <i>Raiders of the Lost Ark</i>.
No, it wasn’t <i>Star Wars</i>. I think I
was too young to find him attractive. I’ve enjoyed every movie I’ve seen with
him in it, and I haven’t seen them all.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> song?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Oh, you’re killing me with having to
pick favorites because my answers would be different if you asked me in a <span>day,</span> a week, or…well, you get the idea. For
writing, it’s “The Climb” by Miley Cyrus. It’s my reminder song to stay strong.
I like it so much, <span>I’m having</span> a line from
the song tattooed on my forearm in May. I’d have to say “Bringin’ On The
Heartache” by Def Leppard for my non-writing song. It’s my favorite song by
them. I had a huge crush on Joe Elliot. I’m a bit embarrassed to admit that I
wrote him a fan love letter. I didn’t do that with any other singer I had a
crush on, and there were plenty. I’m glad I can laugh at the letter now.</span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What is your <span>favourite</span> comfort clothing attire?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">Sweatpants</span><span style="color: black;"> and a t-shirt. If I can stay in my pajamas all day, I’d prefer to
do that.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>What books might we
find on your bedside table?</b></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;">My Kindle is beside my bed and has
several books on it, with more waiting to be read on my account. I’m currently
reading <i>Hope’s Return</i> by Tara Fox
Hall and <i>Hands That Heal</i> by Echo
Bodine.</span></span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;">
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>Two
years ago, Ryan Rogers was attracted to Stephanie Lockhart, but as the
detective who brought down her criminal brother, getting close to her was out
of the question. Now, ready to restart the relationship, he discovers her salon
is connected to a series of high-end robberies.</div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0.1pt 0cm;">
In spite of losing
her brother because of Detective Rogers, Stephanie hasn’t forgotten their
attraction. It could be happily ever after when they meet once again…until she
and her salon are implicated in crime, sending her world spiraling out of
control.</div>
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span style="color: black;">EXCERPT</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I’m sorry to have brought it up, but at the salon you
seemed to have put distance between us. And seeing you…I wanted to talk to you.
Over the phone or in text wouldn’t have been right.” He glanced at his hands.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“Your turn.” She rested her hand on his forearm. “Why didn’t
you call me?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“We were busy with your brother’s investigation, as well as
other cases. I couldn’t get involved with you while working on your brother’s
case. When the time came around that I could’ve called you, I figured it was
too late. A girl like you doesn’t wait around for a guy.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“No, I didn’t wait around.” She removed her hand. “And what
kind of girl am I, Ryan Rogers?” She relaxed against the back cushion and
crossed her legs. Waiting. Waiting for his response.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“You’re beautiful and smart. You run your own business. Come
from a wealthy, well-known family, and could have any man you wanted.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She lurched forward with a laugh before raising an eyebrow.
“Any man I want, huh? Your brother turned me away when he was single.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Ryan sat upright. “You—my brother?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“We kissed, then he kicked me out of his hotel room. So no,
I can’t have any man I want. And you didn’t want me either.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I never said I didn’t want you. We never got beyond the
phone number exchange.” He raised his voice, frustrated with the situation.
“What if I told you I want you now? What if I took you into the bedroom and
followed through on your handcuff suggestion?”</div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="_GoBack"></a>Izzie
Greene never wanted the limelight. As a caterer for Poe, the top-rated U.S. TV
show, she had background player down pat. Her main focus was to spoil the cast
and crew and fantasize about her celebrity crush, Scotsman Cardwell Bennett,
while navigating the daily chaos.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Izzie’s professional
life takes a sharp left turn when her ex-boyfriend unexpectedly arrives on set.
Her personal life spirals into Hell when she runs afoul of an unethical
paparazzo. Thrust into the public eye, her notoriety is fueled by equal
measures of constant scrutiny, speculation, and half-truths. Her rumored
romance with Cardwell further stokes the flames.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Held captive by the
media, accident-prone Izzie struggles to keep her privacy, secrets, and sanity
intact—not to mention her sense of humor. With help from her best friend Delly,
her temperamental cat Edgar, and unexpected backup, Izzie might withstand the
onslaught. And survive the season.</span></span></div>

you’re prepping scones to bake first thing on Monday morning. They’ll be
freshly made. Hot and steamy. Butter will drip off those scones.”</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">K.J. Pierce
is a jack of all trades. Her interests are varied enough to make this a
requirement for a happy existence. Her main goal in life is to understand the
human condition, which she explores through various mediums, including fiction,
creative nonfiction, and scriptwriting. She sometimes succumbs to itchy-feet
syndrome, a holdover from her Army Brat days. As a result, she can sometimes be
found bouncing from locale to locale. She earned a BA in English
Literature/Creative Writing from Agnes Scott College and a MLitt in The Gothic
Imagination from the University of Stirling, Scotland. She puts them to good
use by crafting stories that run the gamut in terms of genres, but which always
include an exploration of the societal misfit and the darkness which pervades
all facets of life, even in the most comic of circumstances. </span></span></div>

If Mia wants to learn about his club, he'll teach her every dirty detail of what it means to surrender. To him.</span></span></div>
