What’s your external complication?
In the story world your author created, explain what it is you fear most.Santiago,
in a single word. Oh, I love him — always have — but he’s…complicated. And he’s
burned me before. So when I returned to Puerto
Vallarta and found him — literally — sleeping in my bed,
it was…freaky!Tell us about your significant
other, that person who makes living worthwhile.Santiago,
again! I already mentioned that he’s complicated but at the heart of him is the
most wonderful belief in the people he cares about. He didn’t have the best childhood
and his family is, well, dysfunctional. But he has created a family in the people
at the villa and me.What would that person
say about you?He would say I’m wound a little too tight, but that this sundress
I’m wearing will help cool me off. Ha!What is your family like?My parents died in a car crash when I was young, so there was
only me and my aunt, Constance. She is everything to me, and now we’ve added Santiago to our family unit
and I couldn’t be happier.Are you happy with the
way your story ended? Why or why not?Yes, I got the guy, didn’t I? And together we saved Casa Constance.
Things aren’t perfect, but we’re working on that.About the Writer
Why did you choose to
write about this character?I couldn’t not write Esmerelda’s story. She and Saint deserved
to get things right. They were both wounded by their childhoods and it was so much
fun to help them set things right.Was there anything you
discovered about this character that was a surprise to you?How unbusinesslike Esme really is. She puts up a good front,
but at the core, she’s fun and silly and adventurous.When you wrote about this
character, what made you the most happy? What made you the most sad?Seeing her come alive again, try new things again made me the
happiest, and even though her childhood still makes me sad, seeing her come to terms
with it and learn from what happened also made me extremely happy.What other character from
this book do you want to write about? Care to tell us why?I really want to tell Tobias’ story next. He’s Santiago’s brother and he’s
very tightly wound, but in a different way than Saint is. I need to figure him out!Are any sequels planned
for this book?As a matter of fact, yes! I’m just now digging into Tobias’ story
and I’m hoping to have it out to readers in the early spring.Is there anything you’d
like to say to your readers?I love and appreciate you all so much! Thank you for coming along
on this crazy, writer ride!Author Bio
Once upon a time, Kristina Knight spent her days running from
car crash to fire to meetings with local police–no, she wasn’t a troublemaker,
she was a journalist. Her career took her all over the United States, writing
about everything from a serial killer’s capture to the National Finals Rodeo. Along
the way she found her very own Knight in Shining Cowboy Boots and an abiding love
for romance novels. Kristina writes contemporary romance with a smattering of sass,
sex and (of course) drama, and she loves hearing from readers. And just like the
characters from her favorite books, she’s living her own happily ever after.Author Social Media

Character Sketch: Big Mike from Bad Vibes @JDFaver_Author #RLFblog #Suspense
Bad Vibes Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13Darla came on deck clad in black body armor, her copper top hidden
under a black Sheriff’s Department cap with the bill turned backwards. She had her
M-14 slung over her shoulder and a pack of extra magazines.Damn! She looks so hot!
Like Badass Barbie…5 star Review~ “J.D. creates two characters in Mike and
Darla that you’ll be rooting for while simultaneously ratcheting up the suspense
to the breaking point. The Texas
Coast will *never* be the
same by the time these two get done…”When government agent Mike “The Iceman” Burke invades
her South Padre Island turf, Deputy Darla Calhoun
is assigned as liaison officer to his team. Her skills as a sniper come in handy
when a gang of human traffickers strikes close to home, kidnapping local women including
her best friend.Darla is recovering from her husband’s suicide and trying to
be a good parent to her twin sons. The ICE assignment takes her out of her misery
and plunges her into a dangerous mission and a steamy affair.Mike and Darla tear up and down the Intracoastal
Waterway in search of the kidnappers and the captive women while Rafael
and Javier conduct their own investigation. Will they rescue the captive women or
will the kidnappers slaughter them as they have done in the past? Two teams race
to find the answers before it’s too late.About the Character
Name: Michael Thomas Burke (Mike/Big Mike)Age: 32Gender: MaleBirthplace: MaineProfession: Federal agent on loan to ICE (Immigration & Customs
Enforcement)Ethnicity/Species (if not human): White male humanDescribe his/her body build, skin tone, height and weight. Include
any unique features such as dimples, freckles, or scars: 6’5″ muscular frame;
Tanned from the sun; Mikes most startling feature are his silvery-blue eyes and
his ability to appear emotionless, earning him the title> The IcemanWho is the significant
other in your character’s life?Mike has been a complete loner, until his ICE assignment on the
lower Texas coast
throws him into close proximity with a petite, red-headed local deputy assigned
to his team as liaison officer. Darla raises his blood pressure and his libido from
the moment they meet. She rousts him in his undercover disguise as a waterfront
bum, disarms him and takes him into custody, which first alerts local law enforcement
that there is a federal investigation into human trafficking using the Intra-coastal
Waterway.How does your hero dress?Mike is known for his love of Hawaiian shirts, the louder the
better. A pair of cargo shorts and flip-flops complete his outfit.If you could only hear
this character’s voice (but not see him) what characteristic would identify him?Mike has a deep, raspy voice. He doesn’t waste words, sometimes
barking out clipped orders. He’s a man’s man and not a ladies man, so he isn’t skilled
at “girlfriend-speak”. Fortunately, his lady love is the only girl among
seven brothers, so she can decipher his sometimes brusque verbage, and is also able
to give him a smack upside his head when he needs it.What special skills does
your character rely on?Mike is a former SEAL and is skilled in diving and underwater
demolition. He is very intelligent and able to think on his feet.What does he have a knack
for doing?Mike is a great guy, but he has a knack of pissing people off.
Before long, he has Darla’s brother and one of her fellow deputies ready to throw
down with him.What is your character’s
family like?Mike’s mother abandoned him at an early age to be brought up
by his grandfather, who was a carpenter. He likes to work with his hands when not
blowing up drug lords in Central America. He has
no living family and immerses himself into his current assignment, whatever that
might be. The ICE assignment, where he has to work with the local deputy, Darla
Calhoun, shakes up his usual mode of operation. He tries to protect her, which just
irks the daylights out of her, since she sees herself as a completely competent
member of the team.Does this character see
morality as black-and-white, or with shades of gray?Mike has a very definite sense of right and wrong. He sees himself
as the defender of the weak and the one to apprehend the bad guys. There is no try.
There is do or die.How do others perceive
your character based upon looks? How true is this assumption?Darla’s brother, Calvin, a large, powerful man himself, describes
Mike as “Big Mutha’.” Darla is very attracted to him, but also doesn’t
want to get hurt when he moves on to his next assignment.What past event causes
your character the most fear?Mike most definitely has abandonment issues, which he has dealt
with in the past by not becoming too attached and by being the one to move on. However,
for the first time, he sees himself settling down in this Texas coastal town and taking on a family, Darla
and her twin sons.What is your hero’s biggest
hopes and dreams?At the outset, his goal is to rescue the kidnapped women and
destroy the human trafficking gang. As he works with Darla, he begins to dream about
nesting with her and providing for her and her sons.What is your hero’s biggest
personal flaw?Mike has absolutely horrible communication skills when it comes
to romance.How does your character
handle challenges?Head on! Fix it! Kill it! Move forward! Accomplish the objective!How emotionally expressive
is your character to others?Have I mentioned how totally inept he is
at expressing his emotions?About Your Writer: Questions for your character to answer about you.
Why do you think your
writer chose to write about you?Hell if I know? I’m a man of action. I don’t have time to sit
around writing pretty little stories.What do you wish your
writer had not told others about you?She had no right to go prying into my life, especially when I
found the love of my life while on assignment. I’m a very private guy.What do you wish your
writer would write next?I know her books about the Texas coastal area are evolving, and there are
plenty of characters to write about. But, seriously. . . just write them as they
happen. Chloe and Rafael have hired me to update an old Victorian house that comes
with its own set of mysteries, like the skeletons I dredge up in the murky fish
pond. Write about that.What other character from
your book do you think your writer should write a book about? Care to tell us why?She’s written about my buds, Rafael, Javier and Zach, but our
stories are unfolding, so I guess she should just keep telling our tales as they
occur.Is there anything you’d
like to say to your writer?Thanks for pairing me up with such a feisty and adorable love
interest.Previous Books

she has an orchard of fruit trees and berry bushes/vines in her back yard. Tomatoes

Why did you write this
book?Honestly? I was watching the Olympic Games and thinking about
all the gorgeous, tight-bodied people in such a small space… and as a romance writer,
took that to its natural conclusion! ;-)What is your favorite
genre to read?I really enjoy almost all genre fiction, but I do enjoy a great
urban fantasy.What is your favorite
character from fiction (not including your own characters)?Gosh, this is a hard question to answer! Characters keep popping
in and out of my head. I’m going to have to go with a classic and say Sherlock Holmes.
He’s only been reimagined so many times because he’s such an interesting character!Do you enjoy films and/or
TV shows? Which are your favorites?I do! Though I wish I had more time to watch them. Some of my
all-time favorites include: Stargate, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, and Sliders.
My current favorites include: Almost Human (Michael Ealy was the inspiration for
Brandon in LaOG!),
Once Upon a Time, and Doctor Who.What are you working on
at the moment, and what are we likely to see from you in the coming months?I am actually working on two more collaborations with the other
authors of Love and Other Games, along with a few special guests! Look out for those
in March and later this summer.Please tell us about your
latest book. (blurb up to 300 words here, plus an excerpt of up to 800 words)In the Winter Olympic Village, a powerful

Character Interview: Christopher Gordon from Summertime Dream @BabetteJames #RLFblog
Summertime Dream Genre Contemporary RomanceAuthor Name Babette JamesBook heat level (based on movie ratings): RThe Fourth of July is over, but for these summer lovers the fireworks
have just begun.An unexpected inheritance brings business consultant Christopher
Gordon from Los Angeles to quaint Falk’s Bend. He’s carved a week from
his demanding schedule to list his great-grandparents’ house for sale and explore
his roots. However, disturbing family secrets and the sweet temptation of writer
Margie Olsson derail his plans, challenging him to seize the elusive dream missing
from his hectic life— love.A recent brush with death shook Margie’s life, but not her dreams
and she’s ready to move forward. Only, standing up to her loving, over-protective
family isn’t easy. Helping Christopher explore the derelict mansion and unravel
his grandmother’s mysterious past should be a harmless fun taste of independence.
But when her experimental summer fling ignites into unexpected love, how can her
small town dreams work with his big city life?Buy This Book
Amazon http://amzn.com/B00HJDS3E6Interview with Christopher Gordon
What is it that you want,
but cannot have? Authors call this the conflict of the story.A life with contentment. A life involving more than constant
work and running. Contentment eluded me. I took pride and pleasure in my work and
my business successes, but couldn’t say the last time I’d been content outside of
those two weeks a year at Mohave. Even there, moments of contentment were hard-won
in the effort to downshift from work mode to vacation mode and then, all too soon,
leave and swing into full-speed work again.What’s your external complication?
In the story world your author created, explain what it is you fear most.I came to Falk’s bend to unload a house I didn’t need and didn’t
want. I was curious about my unknown relatives, but I only had a week to spare from
my schedule. The first complication was Margie. I took one look at her and I didn’t
know what hit me. Then there was the house! What a mess. Margie’s brother was an
arrogant pain in the ass, too. My schedule was sent into shambles, I found myself
falling for this woman and this town and the people. I told myself getting attached
to any of it was a big mistake. What did I know?Tell us about your significant
other, that person who makes living worthwhile.Meeting Margie turned my tidy, well-planned hectic life on end.
If someone had told me I’d meet the love of my life in a place like Falk’s Bend
I would have said they were nuts. I used to think I wanted a cosmopolitan woman
in tune with my face-paced business world. I thought I could settle for like. I
was wrong. I learned I needed a woman who’d be my home and ground my life. I needed
love. Margie’s beautiful, sweet, optimistic, energetic, brave and smart. She writes
these great cozy mysteries and makes an awesome apple pie. She’s definitely made
my life worth living.What is your family like?It’s just my mom and I these days since Dad passed. She and I
are close and talk often, and I visit her as often as I can. Dad was career Army
and we traveled often, and while it made slipping into a rootless life too easy,
it bonded us as a family. I miss him, but I’m thankful for the values he instilled
in me and the freedom he gave me to make my own path in life. He understood when
I chose against following in his footsteps and family tradition into the military.Are you happy with the
way your story ended? Why or why not?I’m very happy with the way my story ended. I have Margie, I
have love, I have contentment, and I’m learning to make room in my life for things
other than work. Some of the facts I learned about my family were disturbing and
a shock, but it’s better knowing the truth.About the Writer
Why did you choose to
write about this character?I fell for Christopher when he and Margie were just secondary
characters in my first novel, Clear As Day. He was the quiet friend of Nate and
Kay and so sweetly besotted with Margie. Originally I had no plans to write a story
for them because they were already married and happily in love. I was pondering
some backstory information for the new River novel when several ideas collided and
Christopher and Margie’s story took off like a firecracker. I had a blast learning
more about Christopher. He’s solid and kind, and has a good sense of humor. He’s
tough and dogged when he must be, and gentle enough to be the man Margie needs in
her life. He appreciates a smart woman and the quiet everyday pleasures in life.
He believes in love, and yearned for it in his own life.Was there anything you
discovered about this character that was a surprise to you?Discovering his grandmother’s mysterious past was a fascinating
surprise and I enjoyed writing that story thread along with the main romance thread.What other character from
this book do you want to write about? Care to tell us why?I have a short story idea tickling me for Margie’s brother and
sister-in-law and their road back to healing their marriage. I really felt for them
and I’d enjoy writing their happy ever after.Are any sequels planned
for this book?Summertime Dream is the prequel to Clear As Day, the first novel
released in my River series and I’m nearly finished with my next novel in this series,
Love Burns, so fingers crossed for that one to be submitted soon. That story takes
off right from where Clear As Day ends. I love this couple’s chemistry, and while
it’s been a challenge to complete, I’ve enjoyed seeing their story come to life
as they work through their personal trials and find their own happily ever after
together. I have four other stories started for couples from the circle of friends
in my River series.Author Bio

On The Outside On The Outside by Diana GreenBook heat level (based on movie ratings): PG 13In a not-so-distant future, the privileged live within protective
walls, and the rest fend for themselves…on the outside.From a life of relative comfort and safety, Orla is plunged into
a struggle for survival. Her newly emerged phasing powers force her to become a
fugitive, hunted by government agents, and driven to the edges of society.In desperation Orla joins a band of smugglers. Their caravan
could offer the perfect hiding place, or it could be her undoing. Much of that depends
on Charlie, top gunslinger and ‘teeth’ of the operation. Will he prove to be a valuable
ally or just another kind of trouble?Buy This Book
Amazon http://amzn.com/B00CL3EAYQInterview with Diana Green
Why did you write this
book?I was driving along in my car, when a song came on. It was The Ghost of Tom Joad by a Celtic group,
Solas. Something about the lyrics, really gripped me. They painted a picture of
a life living under railroad bridges and struggling to find enough food.I started writing what I thought would be a short story about
a young homeless woman, but the character and setting just kept evolving, until
it grew to over a hundred pages. In the process the heroine, Orla, ended up with
teleporting powers, and the setting became a dystopian future.When I wrote about the smugglers’ caravan, the story really took
off. This setting provided such interesting characters. I had loads of fun with
it.What is your favorite
genre to read?I enjoy science fiction, fantasy, historical, romance, and combinations
of those genres.What is your favorite
character from fiction (not including your own characters)?Oh dear. That is impossible to answer with only one. I’ll have
to list a few of my favorites.Tyrion Lannister from The Game of Thrones, Tehanu from the Earthsea
Series, Temmeraire and Captain Laurence from His Majesty’s Dragon, Bilbo Baggins
from the Hobbit, and Katniss from The Hunger Games.Do you enjoy films and/or
TV shows? Which are your favorites?I don’t watch much television, but I love movies. The Lord of
the Rings trilogy was excellent. I also appreciate intelligent sci-fiction films
like Moon. Good historic films like The King’s Speech are another favorite of mine.
I have a special place in my heart for uncommon westerns, such as The Gray Fox,
A Thousand Pieces of Gold, Appaloosa, The Ballad of Little Jo, and Two Mules for
Sister Sara.What are you working on
at the moment, and what are we likely to see from you in the coming months?I am currently writing the second book in my Dragon Clan trilogy,
for The Wild Rose Press. The first book, Dragon Wife, should be released sometime
in the first half of 2014. The series is fantasy romance and follows a clan of dragon
shifters.Tell us about your latest
book.On the Outside is set in a dystopian future where the privileged
live within walled cities, and the rest of the population struggles to survive with
limited resources and technology. Some people have inherited special abilities like
teleporting or telepathy. These individuals are hunted by the government, in order
to be used for research.The main character, Orla, is on the run because of her teleporting
ability. She ends up finding shelter with a traveling caravan, but things are far
from simple. Adjusting to life with the caravan and learning how to control her
powers provide ample challenge.To complicate matters, the caravan’s top gunslinger, Charlie,
takes an interest in her. He seems like a dangerous individual, and Orla is not
at all certain how to handle his attention. To find out what happens, you’ll need
to read the book.Author Bio

Character Interview: Nate O’Halloran from Public Affairs @Cassandra_Carr #RLFblog #contemporary
Public Affairs Cassandra Carr, welcome back to Romance Lives Forever. We’re excited
to interview your character, Nate O’Halloran from the book, Public Affairs.Genre: Spicy contemporary romancePublisher: C-Squared Publishing (indie)Cover artist: Carey AbbottLength: 53,000 wordsHeat rating (based on movie ratings): RTwo worlds collide, focusing on one objective – to save a hospital.Nate O’Halloran is a PR superstar, an expert in crisis management
for his image-conscious celebrity clients. When his college roommate, now a hospital
director in Buffalo, calls to beg for his help– a cancer researcher on staff has
disappeared with millions of dollars’ worth of government research funds– Nate
agrees to help right away, though this situation is pretty small potatoes for him.Val Chase, the hospital’s PR director, is none too thrilled when
Nate shows up; does it mean her boss doesn’t trust her to handle this mess herself?
Against her better judgment, Val decides she and Nate have to work together to save
the hospital’s reputation, though the explosive attraction they feel is making any
actual “work” difficult…What are your main characters’ names, ages, and occupations?Nate O’Halloran; late
30’s; PR guru to the starsVal Chase; early 30’s,
PR director for Cancer
Care CenterInterview with Nate O’Halloran
Tell us about yourself.Going All In Well, prior to meeting
Val, I was one of those guys who celebrities turned to when there was something
they needed to spin or to go away. Stuff like sex tapes, allegations of cheating…*wry
smile* Yeah, I know it wasn’t exactly high-brow stuff, but I was good at it.Tell us about Val.Val is absolutely amazing. When I first got to Buffalo to help my old college
roommate and CEO of Cancer Care Center Doug out of a terrible situation when one
of his docs made off with millions, I thought she might be a nice diversion while
I was away from my “real life”. But through her I realized how empty that
supposed “real life” was.What would Val say is your strongest point?*smiling* No doubt my good looks and charm. Kidding. Probably
how hard I work. I’m like a dog with a bone when I’ve got a problem to solve.What would Val say is your biggest weakness?Her. Very definitely her. I can’t deny that woman anything. I
even let her drive my ’63 Porsche. That’s love. *laughing*What do you wish was different about your life?I wish I hadn’t spent so much of my life doing something that
ultimately was so frivolous, in comparison to the work Val and Doug do. I wish I
had been there for more of the fight, instead of wasting my life and my talent helping
self-centered celebrities escape from their stupid mistakes.If you were given your fondest wish, what would it be?A year ago I might’ve
said something different, but now- to cure cancer. Val and Doug both work so hard,
day after day, alongside thousands of other employees all focused on one goal, to
eradicate the world of a truly terrible disease. With people like the ones who work
at Cancer Care Center,
cancer can’t win.As a child, who was your best friend? Tell us about him/her.Not as a child, but I’d
love to tell you about Doug, who I met in college. I was going through a…rough time,
and Doug was there for me when I needed a friend, even asking his parents to open
their home to me. I’ll never forget that he was the one who never, ever turned his
back on me. So when he called me for help, it was a no-brainer. Of course I would
do everything I could.Buy This Book
