    Second Chance a romance by Martha O’Sullivan @m_osullivan26 #RLFblog #contemporary

    Cover Love at Romance Lives Forever is a short intro to a
    book and includes a cover, blurb, buy links, and social media contacts for the
    author. Today’s featured book is Second Chance by Martha O’Sullivan.
    Everything was fine until Brian Rembrandt came back to town.
    Lindsay Foster was finally getting her life back together and planning a future
    with the ever-indulging Paul Webster. How dare Brian think he could waltz back into
    her life and pick up where they left off!
    But he does.
    And that’s a problem.
    Because Brian is used to getting what he wants. So when Lindsay
    won’t come to him, he goes to her. But little do they know that the torrid night
    they share puts a lot more than Lindsay’s impending marriage in jeopardy. This love
    triangle has an extra side. And it alters the course of four lives forever.

    Fantasy: Glamourhai @msjessmahler | Interview #RLFblog #serial

    Jess Mahler, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. Let’s talk about
    your book, Glamourhai.
    Genre: Fantasy Romance
    Publisher: Self published
    Cover artist:
    Length: 80,000
    Heat rating: Moderate
    Tagline: He bartered his freedom to save his sister, and got
    more than he bargained for.
    Blurb:
    When the fae lord, Oeloeff, takes his sister, Mattin seeks out
    Countess Jahlene n’Erida, a fae noble who is Oeloff’s enemy, and begs her to help
    free his sister. In return for her help, he offers the only thing he has–himself.
    Lady Jahlene accepts Mattin’s offer, and he finds himself an initiate of a strange
    world where pain is pleasure, cruelty is love, and nothing is as it seems.
    Mattin hates being a slave, almost as much as he hates and fears
    the fae. But as he learns more about Jahlene, he finds himself drawn to her, and
    her sadistic pleasures. As they race to prepare their trap for Oeloff, Mattin fights
    to reconcile his desires with his fears. Until he makes a mistake that costs him
    everything…

    Interview

    Tell us about your story’s
    world. What is it like in this period or place?
    Glamourhai is set in an original fantasy world that is culturally
    a mash up of Germany during the
    Renaissance and colonial America.
    The empire that county
    Erida is part of is made up
    of humans and fae, but ruled entirely by the fae, who conquered the humans in what
    for most people is ancient history.
    The fae have a power called glamour that allows them to sense
    the emotions of people around them and to control people by taking over their will.
    They need to feed on emotions to power their glamour. And, as Mattin eventually
    observes, it’s a lot easy to create negative emotioins, like pain, fear and anger,
    than positive ones. Which has led to the development of some sadistic customs in
    fae culture.
    Most humans live ‘normal’ lives and try to avoid the fae as much
    as possible, but fae nobles have the right to take humans from their lands as slaves.
    Which is how Mattin gets into trouble…
    What inspired you to write
    this book?
    I got an image in my head one day, of a man, on his knees and
    utterly devastated. He had just failed and betrayed his Mistress, his love, and
    knew that what he had done was so horrible, she could never forgive him.
    Writing this story was really the process of discovering what
    had led up to that moment, and what happened after.
    Why do you write?
    Because I love too. I have stories in my head and I want to share
    them with the world.
    I also hope, in some small ways, to help change the world. I
    remember the authors who shaped my view of the world, from Lackey, whose books helped
    me see past my family’s rejection of homosexuality, to Heinlein, who challenged
    my ideas of what society is and can become, and many others. And I hope that in
    some small way, someone might read my books about a black fae woman, and a man who
    chooses to submit to her, and see the people around them a little bit differently.
    When you write, what things
    do you want close at hand? (Coffee, water, chocolate… pictures of gorgeous hunks
    for inspiration…?)
    Water and music. On good writing days, I’m listening to Blackmore’s
    Night, Voltaire, Trixie Pixie, Heather Dale and Rockapella. On bad writing days,
    I have a play list called ‘energizing’ that’s all songs to get my blood moving and
    help me get past the doldrums.
    When you’re not writing,
    what would we find you doing?
    Reading,
    playing with my kids, chatting on twitter, or taking long walks. I’m a homebody.
    Are you a plotter, or
    do you prefer to make it up on the spur of the moment?
    Somewhere in between. I actually start out writing a brief synopsis
    (about one page long) that covers most of the major plot points. Then I expand it,
    and expand it again, adding more details and subplots and scenes each time. About
    half way through I’ll have a dozen fully fleshed out scenes, and a whole bunch of
    “this happens, and then this happens, and then this person needs to do this,
    but I don’t know how yet…”
    So I guess you could say I’ve ‘plotted’ the bones of the story
    ahead of time, but I make up a whole bunch of stuff on the spur with each expansion.
    What’s your writing schedule
    like?
    Whenever time allows!
    Any advice for new authors?
    Keep writing, and watch out for Dunning-Kreuger. If you are a
    new writer and aren’t seeing lots of problems in your work, you don’t know enough
    to be a good writer.
    When an idea hits you,
    what do you do to capture it?
    I have a folder on my computer labelled ‘mason jar.’ New ideas
    get saved in there with as much detail as I can come up with—usually the one scene
    that caught my imagination and synopsis of anything else i’ve come up with.
    What other jobs have you
    held besides writing?
    I’ve worked in massage therapy, customer service, retail, freelance
    writing and been a house-spouse.
    What’s the best gift you
    ever received?
    It’s not the usual sort of gift, but after sending letters and
    phone calls for a few years, I was going to meet my biological family and spend
    a week with them. I got of the bus, and my mother and sister met me. I think we
    were all feeling awkward—I certainly was! And I wasn’t entirely sure that I wasn’t
    making a mistake. We went to dinner and as we were walking out of the restaurant
    we started—I don’t remember who started it or why, but suddenly we were all singing
    together, one of my favorite songs. In perfect harmony, no less. And I knew, just
    knew, that everything would be great. (I was right, too!)
    What kind of music do
    you listen to while driving? Same question when writing?
    Driving I usually listen to classic rock. Sometime folk, musicals
    or classical. Writing…I think I answered that already ;^)
    Do you play any musical
    instruments?
    Piano, but I’m horribly out of practice. I learned flute in school,
    but I’ve forgotten almost all of. I can still play a high C.
    Are you the eldest, middle,
    baby, or only child?
    I’m the eldest twice over. I’m the eldest of both my adoptive
    and biological families.
    What do you wish I had
    asked you?
    So what’s this I hear
    about a webserial?
    I’m doing a bit of an experiment and releasing the entire novel
    as a free webserial. The Glamourhai webserial began posting on Nov 1, and the book
    will be released on Dec 1. Anyone who wants can read the entire story for free—as
    long as they don’t mind waiting until June or July (and enduring multiple cliffhangers)
    to get to the ending.

    Please complete the sentences.

    I love pizza with chicken.
    I’m always ready for a good book.
    When I’m alone, I pace while working out the next road block
    in my story.
    You’d never be able to tell, but in my own way, I am very
    traditional.
    If I had a halo it would be hanging on a hook out of the way
    somewhere.
    If I could never read again I’d go crazy
    I can never watch horror movies because I’m a fraidy
    cat!

    Sisters, Veterans, Authors: @DelilahDevlin and @ellejamesauthor #RLFblog

    Please join me in welcoming military author and former
    military woman Elle James to the Romance Lives Forever blog. She’s going to
    share with you today about her sister, author Delilah Devlin, also a former
    military woman. Take it away, Elle! And thank you for your service. As a former
    Navy vet myself, I know the sacrifice it took.
    Born and raised as children of a career Air Force man, it was
    only natural that my sister and I would follow in my father’s footsteps and join
    the military. Because my father retired in a small town with a public university
    that only had Army ROTC, my sister and I joined the Army ROTC program. We loved
    the discipline and challenge of being a part of the military and fully embraced
    the lifestyle.
    My sister graduated and went right into the U.S. Army. I married
    in college and joined the U.S. Army Reserves and later branch transferred to the
    U.S. Air Force Reserves. We are now both retired and writing full time, but the
    military is still very near and dear to our hearts. We loved being a part of something
    bigger than ourselves, serving this great country and protecting our freedom.
    This veterans day we teamed with a great group of authors who
    write military romances to produce a boxed set of military romances in honor of
    Veterans Day and all the brave men and women who help to protect our nation.

    Historical: Legend of the Mist @VeronicaBale1 #RLFblog #contest

    Legend of the Mist 
    Veronica Bale, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. Let’s talk about
    your book, Legend of the Mist.
    Genre: Historical romance
    Publisher: Self
    Cover artist: Viola Estrella Cover Art
    Length: 224 pages
    Heat rating: 18+
    Tagline: An island rises from mist; a destiny rises from legend
    Blurb:
    There is a legend familiar to those who call the island of Fara their home. It is one that is passed
    down through the generations. From mothers who whisper the tale to their bairns
    as they float into dreams each night. From starry-eyed lasses who pray to find for
    themselves the undying love of which it speaks. From elders who know the magic of
    the thick and inexplicable mist surrounding this, and no other, of Orkney’s islands
    which rise from the sea off Scotland’s northern coast.
    As the daughter of Clan Gallach’s chief, Norah knows the legend
    better than anyone on the island. It tells of a lady who waits in the mists of Fara
    for her long lost love to return to her. It’s an entertaining story, to be sure.
    But it is no more than fantasy. Or so the islanders say. But Norah is not so certain.
    All her life she’s felt that the legend is more than simple folklore, that the lady
    of the mist is more real than anyone wishes to believe.
    But these are turbulent times, marked by the very real tales
    of Norse invaders and their brutality. When her people are conquered by a band of
    fearsome Vikings, one among them will blur the lines between reality and legend
    like never before. For Norah cannot help but feel that she knows him … from some
    other time … from some other life …

    What are your main characters’ names, ages, and occupations?
    Legend of the Mist is the story of Norah, daughter of the chief
    of Clan Gallach, and Torsten, a Viking raider whose men conquer the clan’s island,
    Fara, off the northern coast of Scotland.
    Among the people of Clan Gallach exists a legend which tells of a Lady of the Mist.
    It is said that the lady, who when her warrior love was killed in battle cast herself
    into the sea, waits in the mists of Fara for a time when her love will return to
    her. Norah had always thought the legend was just a story, but when Torsten appears
    on the island, she begins to wonder whether the legend may, in fact, be true. Is
    she the Lady of the Mist, and is Torsten her warrior love? As for their ages, I
    wrote Norah at 19 years, but did not really identify Torsten’s age. When writing
    him, I pictured him to be between 25 and 30.

    Interview

    How did you get your start in the industry?
    I started as a freelance writer, ghostwriting short stories and
    novellas for a number of different clients. At some point I decided to write the
    story that I wanted to tell, and released my first novel, Bride of Dunloch (book
    1 of my Highland Loyalties trilogy), in August, 2012.
    What is the most important thing you do for your career now,
    as compared to when you first started writing?
    Social media. Since releasing Bride of Dunloch I’ve discovered
    how much self-marketing authors, especially indie authors, need to do. I’m slowly
    improving my presence on the web; I’m leaps and bounds ahead of where I started,
    at least.
    What websites do you visit daily?
    I’m on twitter every day, of course. That’s actually my go-to
    spot for a lot of industry information (romance news, writing tips, publishing help,
    etc.). Not knowing much about it when I joined, I was surprised to see how useful
    a resource twitter is. So many great people are sharing so much great stuff, it’s
    an amazing community.
    If you could change something about your first book, what
    would it be?
    There are a ton of things I would change … but I’ll never say
    what they are (insert devious laugh here).
    What do you enjoy most about writing?
    I like meeting my characters. That probably sounds strange, but
    for me, my characters already exist. I didn’t make them up, they came into being
    on their own, and the only difference between them and me is that I live in the
    real world, whereas they live in my head. It’s exciting, I never know which character
    I’m going to meet next.
    If you could choose anyone to be your mentor who would it
    be?
    I wish I could give you one great name, like Salman Rushdie or
    Margaret Atwood, but really I would love to have as a mentor someone who works in
    the publishing industry. Just someone with a wealth of knowledge about good writing,
    good publishing, good marketing, all that. Those individuals are just as important
    as the actual authors; I’d love the opportunity to learn from those who make a career
    out of helping authors be successful.
    If you could give the younger version of yourself advice what
    would it be?
    I would say, “Hey, Veronica, get started on that first book.
    Don’t wait like I did.”
    What is your work ethic when it comes to writing?
    I’m not sure I have a work ethic, because I don’t consider writing
    work. I write because I love to write, I love to create stories and discover the
    lives of my characters. For me, writing is like reading. I no more have a writing
    ethic than a reading ethic. I read and write wherever and whenever I can.
    How do you cope with stress as an author?
    Again, I wouldn’t so much call it stress as excitement. This
    is a fast-paced world, this indie-author place, and as frightening and labour-intensive
    as it can be, it’s also incredibly rewarding.
    Do things your family or friends do ever end up in a book?
    For the purpose of this interview I’m going to say no. My friends
    and family might be reading this, and I wouldn’t want to let the cat out of the
    bag … if there was a cat to let out of the bag, that is (insert another devious
    laugh here).
    What are some jobs you’ve done before (or while) you were
    a writer?
    Believe it or not, I actually have a background in finance and
    accounting. Nothing like staring at numbers all day to get your creative juices
    flowing.
    Which of your books would you recommend to someone who doesn’t
    normally read your genre, and why?
    I would recommend any one of them. There is sometimes a stigma
    associated with romance novels, I think. Those who don’t read them are more likely
    to dismiss them because of the provocative covers, or because of what romance novels
    were thirty and forty years ago. But today’s romance novels have evolved. They’re
    sources of historical information; the writing is often superb; character and plot
    development are top-notch. These are all things I’ve paid attention to and worked
    hard on. I think a non-romance reader would be surprised to discover how enjoyable
    and worth-while romance novels can be.
    What kind of books do you read when taking a break from your
    own writing?
    Reading
    is an integral part of my writing, so I never “take a break” to read.
    I make time for both. My tastes are eclectic. Every book provides me with the opportunity
    to learn, and I read a wide range. I will finish up a Jayne Ann Krentz one day,
    and take up a Charles Dickens classic the next. I am as eager to read futuristic
    fantasy as historical non-fiction. It’s all fascinating.
    What do you think is the future of traditional publishing?
    Bride of Dunloch 
    It’s not going anywhere; It will always have its place. The difference
    today is that the paradigm of twenty years ago is gone – advances, multi-million
    dollar deals, dedicated marketing and promotion, etc. But that doesn’t mean traditional
    publishing has gone with it. It will always be there, and it will always be something
    authors (I use the term non-exhaustively) strive for, whether going the indie author
    route first or not. We’re starting to see a shift now where indie authors are proving
    to agents and publishers that they can be successful, and that is persuading publishers
    to take them on. The difference today is that, even if traditional publishers decline
    to publish, that author still has a place to make his or her voice heard and books
    available to the public.
    What do you wish I had asked you? Please ask and answer it
    now.
    What kind of reader response have you seen so far?
    I am amazed by how many people have connected with me to let
    me know what they thought about my books. Each time a reader contacts me, leaves
    me a message on my facebook page, tweets something about me, etc., I’m not only
    flattered, I’m honoured. I’m reminded of why I write in the first place – because
    I want to share something, and I want to inspire, entertain, and reach people with
    something I think they’ll enjoy. It’s such a great thing to see that I’m accomplishing
    that goal.
    What was the proudest moment of your life so far?
    Besides the day my son was born? I’d say getting that first positive
    response from a reader. Just knowing that I’d reached someone, that I’d made an
    impression on them, that was a great moment.
    Imagine you get to go on a dream vacation, but you have only
    one hour to pack and leave, and it starts as soon as you finish this interview.
    What will you take with you and where will you go?
    Laptop, thermals and sturdy footwear. Why? I’d be going to Scotland,
    of course! I can buy the flagon of whiskey when I get there.
    What good book have you read recently?
    I’ve read a lot of good books, but lately I have become a fan
    of Kate Morton. I love her style, and the way she describes things. She creates
    an atmosphere with her novels, a very haunting one. I admire that.
    Where were you at midnight, on December 31st when the new
    century started?
    I was in Northern Ontario at
    a friend’s cottage, panicking over whether or not anything would happen to my family
    back in the city. At 12:15 am when the television stations were still airing I figured
    nothing catastrophic had happened and went to bed.
    What do you like to do when you’re bored?
    Daydream. Isn’t that what all writers do? Of course that sometimes
    gets me into hot water, like if I’m bored and start daydreaming when I should be
    paying attention to something … that happens a lot, unfortunately.
    If your life became a movie, who would you want to play you?
    Honestly? I think I’d like to be surprised. I would love to see
    what someone does with that role. I wouldn’t want to have any pre-conceived notions
    about who would be best to play me and exclude all others. That assumes my life
    is interesting enough to make a movie out of … which it’s not, and that’s why I
    write in the first place.
    If you were a color, what color would you be?
    Chameleon-coloured. I’m so indecisive, I’d never be happy with
    just one colour.
    What do you wish I had asked you? Please ask and answer it
    now.
    What is the next book you plan to write?
    I’ve got a basic storyline in mind, but no title yet. In a historical
    context, I’m moving a little ahead of where Highland Loyalties and Legend of the
    Mist were, to the mid-15th century. I’ve become rather intrigued by the
    story of the Black Douglasses and their feud with King James II of Scotland.
    I’d like to try and write a story that is more defined by actual recorded history,
    and plan to craft one around the Douglas clan.
    Please underline which statement is more like you:
    “I am a vacation spa because I am laid back and relaxed.”
    “I am a ten-countries in ten-days tour vacation, because
    I do things as fast as possible.”

    Please complete the sentences

    I love pizza with milk.
    I’m always ready for Coronation Street.
    When I’m alone, I talk to myself. A lot!
    You’d never be able to tell, but I write romance novels. I
    tend to keep that quiet in my day-to-day life, just because I’m not big on talking
    about myself, much less bragging about my accomplishments. When I do tell people
    I’m an author, I get “I never would have guessed that,” or “it’s
    always the quiet ones.”
    If I had a halo it would be quickly
    taken away, because I’m no angel, just a flawed human being trying my best to be
    a good person.
    If I could live anywhere in the world I’d live in a
    small, stone cottage in the Highlands of Scotland. Is that predictable? Yeah,
    probably …
    I can never go skydiving with my husband like he wants me
    to
    because I am a complete scaredy-cat when it comes to things like that.
    I like it when my head is in the clouds, not my whole body.

    Shaman’s Temptation @authorErinMoore #RLFblog

    Shaman’s Temptation
    Cover Love at Romance Lives Forever is a short intro to a book
    and includes a cover, blurb, buy links, and social media contacts for the author.
    Today’s featured book is The Shaman’s Temptation by Erin Moore.
    A Shaman’s temptation could be the undoing of his people.
    Madeleine Greenway, perfectionist and analyst for Surety Bank, has no place in her rigidly organized life for something as unpredictable as a man, much less a Native American shaman. Sent to the White Mountain reservation to help the tribe finance its new casino, she meets Tak, a proud, beautiful Apache, and finds herself surrounded by something magical in the Arizona desert. His touch becomes a passport to otherworldly bliss, and the strange coyote she sees makes her question what’s real. But it’s the amazing sex with Tak that makes Madeleine lose sight of her goal–to guarantee that Surety Bank’s investment in the casino won’t fail.
    Last in a long line of shaman shape-shifters, Tak Nah-Kah-Yen has sworn a vow of celibacy to his gods. But Madeleine’s lithe body and honeyed lips compel him to forswear his pledge, claiming her for his own. His passion for her overshadows his link to his gods at a time when he most needs their help. Desperate to find funding for the casino and lift his people out of poverty, he’d accepted start-up money from less than savory sources who are willing to kill to guarantee their profit–the profit Madeleine’s bank jeopardizes.
