    Guard Dog by Sabrina York
    A scorching sequel to Stone Hard SEALs
    Mason Steele expected to be a SEAL until the day he died. And he was. A pity they revived him. Now he’s been mustered out of the Navy and his life seems wholly unsatisfying. He misses the action; he misses the camaraderie; he misses being able to use his tightly-honed skills. He’s lucky to have snagged this job with GAPS—the Guardian Angel Protective Services—it provides some hope for his future. But the last thing he wants to do is babysit a spoiled heiress who is obsessed with the color of her nail polish and carries a Chihuahua in her purse.
    But there’s more to Pansy Hightower than can be seen at first glance. She’s smart, sassy and determined to save the business her late mother built. She resents having a guard dog and does what she can to lose her muscular shadow. But when it becomes clear that someone is targeting her—perhaps for the same kind of fatal “accident” that befell her mother, she decides having the 240 pound SEAL with killer instincts and lethal hands at her back might be a good idea after all.
    Until they share a kiss, that is. Until those lethal hands prove they have other talents as well. Talents that leave her breathless and wanting and weak. The last thing either of them wants is a relationship, but the scorching passion between them cannot be denied…even though it will undoubtedly spell disaster for them both.

    Becky from A Baron for Becky @JudeKnightBooks #Historical #RLFblog

    Interview with Becky Winstanley

    Tell us about
    yourself, please.
    Which
    self? Mrs Rebecca Winstanley is a respectable widow, living with her daughter
    in a modest apartment in a select part of London. Mrs Rose Darling lives a few
    streets away, in an elegant townhouse where she entertains the Marquis of
    Aldridge at his pleasure.
    I
    am both and neither—I act a part, always.
    Authors call what you
    want but cannot have “the conflict” — what is yours?
    I
    dream of a respectable life, the life stolen from me when I was just 15. No. It
    is more than a dream, it is a plan. I plan to leave London, to set up somewhere
    I am not known and to raise my daughter to a better life than the one I have
    known.
    I
    dream of love. Not the love I have for Aldridge, my protector. I am fond of
    Aldridge, but I know he will never be mine. I dream of a man who will be loyal
    and true; someone who will see the real me, and love me anyway. Ridiculous and
    impossible, but there you are.
    What inner doubt
    causes you the most difficulty?
    I
    doubt that anyone would love me, or even like me, if they saw more than the
    parts I act. Indeed, how could they? Inside, I am still the broken child,
    mourning the loss of my innocence and hiding from the horror my life became. I
    would not want even Sarah to see that person. How could she love me when I do
    not love myself?
    In the story world
    your author created, explain what it is you fear most and why.
    I
    fear that my past will haunt me forever, that it will surface at the worst
    possible time to destroy my daughter’s chance of escape to a respectable life.
    I must keep my secret; I must keep her safe.
    Sarah
    is only nine, but—despite our care—she is already suspicious of Aldridge’s
    place in my life. “Why do the other girls have a Papa,” she asked me last week,
    “when all I have is uncles?” I did not know what to say. I fear she will hate
    me if she ever knows the truth—but not as much as I fear that the truth will
    doom her to the life I have led.
    Tell us about your
    significant other, that person who makes living worthwhile.
    Sarah
    makes living worthwhile. I am fond of Aldridge. He is a kind and generous man,
    and he has given me a life of ease and luxury I never imagined. But he is my
    protector, not my love. I forgot that in the early days of our liaison. Almost,
    I gave him my heart. Such feelings are foolish between a courtesan and the man
    who keeps her. One day, he will marry one of the debutantes who clutter
    London’s Season, and breed fine children with pure bloodlines on both sides.
    And I will retire to the country and be a widow, and grow roses.
    What would that
    person say about you?
    I
    expect he would say I am beautiful. It seems to be the characteristic that men
    notice first and comment on most often. He would also say, I think, that he
    enjoys my company. He returns to me between his other affairs. Indeed, he
    spends several nights a week with me. He likes to converse, even to
    debate—politics, literature, history, business. He is very well read, and he
    enjoys a good argument, and even concedes defeat if I manage to convince him of
    my facts.
    If someone from your
    past showed up, who would you NOT want it to be, and why?
    Ah.
    Now that is a long, long list. I would not want to meet any of my former
    clients or protectors. Fortunately, they live in the South-West, and I do not
    go there. Only the last was of any social consequence. Perringworth, his name
    was, and he is dead these two years.
    If you could plan a
    happy ending, what would it be?
    I
    have told you my happy ending. Safety for Sarah. Not enough? Well then, a man
    who loves us both. A man who loves Sarah as a daughter and who loves me—the
    real me, the hidden me—as his respected and treasured wife. I know it cannot
    be, however, and will be content with the life I plan. I cannot see how my
    author could give me a better one.

    About the Writer

    Jude Knight writes strong determined
    heroines, heroes who can appreciate a clever capable woman, villains you’ll
    love to loathe, and all with a leavening of humour.
    Jude Knight is the pen name of Judy Knighton.
    After a career in commercial writing, editing, and publishing, Jude is
    returning to her first love, fiction. Her novella, Candle’s Christmas Chair,
    was released in December 2014, and is in the top ten on several Amazon
    bestseller lists in the US and UK. Her first novel Farewell to Kindness, was
    released on 1 April, and is first in a series: The Golden Redepennings. .
    What was your biggest
    challenge in writing this book?
    This
    book is about three flawed characters, all of whom act in ways that are morally
    reprehensible. My challenge was to make them sympathetic—to give the reader
    cause to identify with them and want them to succeed. I wrote, tested with beta
    readers, rewrote, and retested. I agonised over showing their motivations, and
    demonstrating their strengths as well as their very obvious weaknesses.
    Why did you choose
    this character for the interview today?
    Becky
    is central to the novel. In my past two books, the heroes have been very clear
    to me, and the heroines have emerged as I wrote. The same happened here; I
    began with Aldridge, but Becky took over. The action of the book comes as other
    characters react to her.
    Are any sequels
    planned for this book?
    I
    didn’t plan to write this book at all. It was Aldridge’s idea. Aldridge is
    cousin to the hero of Farewell to
    Kindness
    , and half-brother to the hero of my work-in-progress, Encouraging Prudence. I planned to give
    him his own novel eventually, but I needed a novella to fill a gap between
    publications. A brief book about one of Aldridge’s dalliances seemed as if it
    would be fun. Then Becky took over. Now that the book is done, one of the
    off-stage characters is knocking at the door of my mind. So not a sequel precisely,
    but a linked stand-alone? We’ll see what the plot elves have in store.
    Why should readers
    who haven’t picked up one of your books before give this one a try?
    Try
    A Baron for Becky if you like novels whose characters meet life’s challenges by
    resolving their own inner demons. It’s very different to my novella, Candle’s
    Christmas Chair, which was a sweet traditional, and my first novel, Farewell to
    Kindness, which has a large cast and an action-driven plot full of twists and
    turns, mystery and thrills. A Baron for Becky has five central characters, and
    most of the action focuses on three: Aldridge, Becky, and Hugh. Two heroes and
    one heroine. Yes, indeed. As I say, very different.

    Title
    A Baron for Becky
    Genre
    Historical Romance (Regency)
    Author
    Jude Knight
    Book
    heat level (based on movie ratings): PG 13
    Becky is the envy of the courtesans of the demi-monde –
    the indulged mistress of the wealthy and charismatic Marquis of Aldridge. But
    she dreams of a normal life; one in which her daughter can have a future that
    does not depend on beauty, sex, and the whims of a man.
    Finding herself with child, she hesitates to tell
    Aldridge. Will he cast her off, send her away, or keep her and condemn another
    child to this uncertain shadow world?
    The devil-may-care face Hugh shows to the world hides a
    desperate sorrow; a sorrow he tries to drown with drink and riotous living. His
    years at war haunt him, but even more, he doesn’t want to think about the
    illness that robbed him of the ability to father a son. When he dies, his
    barony will die with him. His title will fall into abeyance, and his estate
    will be scooped up by the Crown.
    When Aldridge surprises them both with a daring
    proposition, they do not expect love to be part of the bargain.

    Cole Tucker from False Impressions @Mariannericeaut #Contemporary #RLFblog

    Interview with Cole Tucker
    Tell us about yourself,
    please.
    I love women. Not much more to stay than that (He winks and flashes
    his dimple). Not the answer you’re looking for? Okay, well, for years I’d been
    the party guy. But after a run in with a tree after a few too many beers, I had
    to reevaluate a few things. My folks were getting too old to run the horse farm
    so I’ve taken over that, as well as managing the properties my brothers and I
    own. They’d settled down with their wives and careers but good ‘ol Cole and his
    lack of a real job was here to run things. Damn. I sound like a depressed
    loser. So not the impression I’m used to making. So, how’re you doing? I
    appreciate you reading about me. Hey, don’t I know you? Yeah, you’re the girl
    with the beautiful smile.
    What can you not do (but
    need to do) during this story?
    I should tell Sam about my past. About my DUI. But she lost her
    daughter and husband to a drunk. I don’t want to be put in the same category as
    that murderer. But I am, aren’t I? No, I’m not. I wasn’t an alcoholic. I didn’t
    depend on the stuff to make me happy, but I did enjoy having a cold brew in my
    hand when I watched the Sox or Patriots kick some butt and when I barbecued or
    hung out with my brothers. Quitting wasn’t hard. But I was  ashamed of being so stupid that I drove while
    intoxicated; I didn’t want Sam to know how weak I’d been. I’d been able to make
    her and her son smile and laugh again. It made me proud and gave me something
    positive in my life to look forward to. I couldn’t crush her smile with my
    secret. I cared about her too much. But I needed to tell her the truth.
    Unfortunately she found out before I could come clean.
    What inner doubt causes
    you the most difficulty?
    I don’t like to take life seriously and doubt my ability to be good
    enough for the most perfect, kind-hearted, loving woman in the world. And what
    kind of role model would I be for her son? Woah. We’re getting a bit too deep
    here. Let’s talk about you. I don’t want you to think I’m ridiculous or
    anything, but you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. I just felt
    like I had to tell you.
    Tell us about your
    significant other, that person who makes living worthwhile.
    Samantha Chase is the most perfect, kind-hearted, loving woman in the
    world. She’s short, spunky and tough as nails, and there isn’t a word in the
    dictionary for how good she looks. A lot of strength wrapped up in a pretty
    package. She’s the bacon to my eggs.
    What would that person say
    about you?
    I’m the master of pick up lines and proud of it. They’d gotten me out
    of quite a few jams, but Sam would only roll her eyes and either brush off my
    come on or give me a kick ass reply. I think I freaked her out in the beginning
    by hitting it off with her son so quickly. But what can I say? The kid has
    great taste in super heroes. I guess she thinks I’m a kid at heart.
    What is your family like?
    Have you read Connor or Mason’s books yet? That’ll tell you a thing or
    two. With three other siblings, life is never just chill (that’s my role in the
    family—everyone else is a work hound). My mother has played her hand at
    matchmaker and passed the role on to my sister-in-law. We get into everyone’s
    business and are always there to support each other.
    What special skills do you
    rely on?
    I’m really good with my hands.
    Why are you happy (or not
    happy) with the way your story ended?
    I learned a lot about honesty and forgiveness, got the girl, an
    amazing step-son and a bright future. So, yeah. Life is good.

    www.mariannerice.weebly.com
    What was your biggest
    challenge in writing this book?
    Cole had a mind of his own. He had a line for everyone. Seriously.
    Even me. I was struggling with a serious scene and he pops out and says, “Baby,
    if you were words on a page, you’d be what they call FINE PRINT!” It was hard
    staying on track with Cole distracting me every step of the way. He’s a
    carefree, funny, charming guy and the master of pick-up lines, but he was
    harboring an embarrassing secret. I needed to build his character without
    making him seem too shallow, or letting his secret change his personality.
    Why did you choose this
    character for the interview today?
    Because he’s fun but real. When I ask readers what they’re looking for
    in a man they often say: loyalty, honesty, a sense of humor…and looks. Cole has
    all these qualities, except he is harboring a secret. The secret wasn’t meant
    to hurt anyone but to protect himself.
    When writing the book,
    what did you discover about this character that surprised you?
    Cole’s appearances in the first two books are pretty superficial and
    fun, but I found a depth to him and deep feelings that he didn’t like to show
    others. Well, Sam was able to find those. I just wrote what she was able to
    discover. I also hadn’t planned on his connection with Levi, Sam’s son. The
    interactions between the two were quite fun to write and were totally
    unplanned.
    Why should readers who
    haven’t picked up one of your books before give this one a try?
    While the premise of this book may seem serious, it’s actually quite
    light-hearted. I wrote it when my son was four and incorporated many of our
    conversations into Levi’s dialogue. I love seeing the interaction between Cole
    and Levi. It’s adorable.
    Is there anything you’d
    like to say to your readers?
    Thank you so much for picking up my books. The McKay-Tucker series is
    my first set of books and I’m thrilled to have them in digital and print
    formats for my friends, family and new readers. This has been an amazing
    experience and I look forward to sharing many more stories with you. Sweet on
    You, the first book in The Wilde Sisters comes out in September. They’re light,
    fun, sexy and deal with many real-life emotional issues as well.
    About the Book
    Title False Impressions
    Genre Contemporary Romance
    Author Marianne Rice
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13
    Recovering alcoholic and former party animal, Cole Tucker would be an
    idiot to start something with his newly hired right-hand woman, Samantha Chase.
    It figures he can’t seem to keep his mitts of the sexy, five-foot-nothing
    single mom who can toss a sack of shingles over her shoulder and rewire a house
    better than the crew from Extreme Home Makeover. Her incredible strength
    and self-confidence draw him in; something Cole has pretended to have for
    years. All he has to show for himself is his uncanny use of pick-up lines, a
    hand-me-down farm and some small-town rental properties. When he learns Samantha’s
    husband and daughter were killed by a drunk driver, the shame of his past
    experience with a DUI and near-death accident is the last thing he wants to
    mention to her.
    Samantha has no problem accepting her new boss, flaws and all. His
    simple life is charming and exactly what she hoped to find for herself and her
    son in Newhall, New Hampshire. Cole wins her over by befriending her fatherless
    son and making her laugh again, something she hasn’t done in four years. When
    she learns about his shady past with the bottle, her heart tells her to
    forgive, but the painful memories of her past are too deep to overlook.

    Naomi Bellina asks Do Werewolves Get Old #PNR @TheGoddessNaomi #RLFblog

    Guest Post with Naomi Bellina

    Do werewolves get old?
    One of the best parts about reading
    paranormal books is seeing how each author creates her world. You have to make
    rules for your kingdom, then stick with them. Supernatural beings can have many
    characteristics. How can they be killed? What are their weaknesses? Their
    strengths? Do they live forever?  I want
    my were-creatures to age. Yes, they live longer, healthier lives than humans
    but they do grow old. And it sucks! That’s one of the themes I had big fun
    playing with in Sins of Long Ago.
    Imagine you’re an alpha werewolf,
    used to being in charge, to getting what and who you want. One day, you start
    to notice lines on your face that weren’t there yesterday. You move a little
    slower in a fight, want to come in sooner from a moon run. You’re aging, like you
    knew you would, and like us regular old mortals, you start to think about
    serious shit. The fun and games of youth are over and your thoughts turn to the
    future. To family, friends, and maybe leaving behind some kind of legacy.
    I had a challenge with one
    particular scene in Sins. My editor
    asked me to change it, because it made Vincent, my hero, look kind of sleazy.
    The scene is important because it helps show his vulnerability when he’s
    treated differently than he expects, due to his “mature” nature. I rose
    to the challenge and came up with a great compromise that my editor and I both
    loved. Vincent keeps his morals intact but I still got to make him suffer a
    little at the hands of a wily woman.
    I hope no matter what your age, you
    enjoy reading Sins of Long Ago as
    much as I enjoyed writing it.

    About the Book

    Title Sins of Long Ago

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    Werewolves and humans don’t mix.
    Until danger forces an alliance and desire demands satisfaction.
    Leading his pack of werewolves
    keeps Vincent plenty busy, and now with a predator out to harm them, life is
    more perilous than ever. The last thing he needs is a woman to complicate
    matters, especially one who sets his body and soul on fire. She’s a human and a
    witch — totally the wrong woman for him. Even if he could take a mate for his
    own, he refuses to put her in the danger his life has become. No way can they
    ever be together. Werewolf-style love is fine anyway. No permanent partner, no
    bullshit, no heartache.
    Genevieve has never known true
    love. Cursed by an enraged woman long
    ago, females in her family are doomed to go insane if they fall in love. Life
    has been fine without a man around– until a hot werewolf drops in and captures
    her heart. Though they have plenty of obstacles to overcome, Gen knows they can
    work past them. Tell that to Vincent, as he struggles with old pack rules about
    love, sex, and consorting with humans.
    As Vincent searches for a killer,
    deals with death among his own, and tries to keep his hands off Gen, she
    attempts to end her family curse. Together, they must find a way to break free
    from the sins of long ago.

    Stephen Grafton from Christmas Carols by @DaisyBanks16 #Historical #RLFblog

    Daisy Banks shares details
    about the creation of Stephen Grafton in the book Christmas
    Carols.

    About the Book

    Title Christmas Carols
    Genre Historical Romance
    Author Daisy Banks
    Book heat level G, Sweet
    Stephen Grafton, the blind organist
    at Holy Trinity Church, is gaining a reputation for his fine playing and
    compositions. Alice Broadbrace’s initial venture back into society after years
    in deep mourning brings her to the notice of the talented organist, and he offers
    her the opportunity to sing a solo carol to his accompaniment. His courage
    convinces her to find her own, while her charm entices him into thoughts of
    romance. A difficult walk in a snow storm is only the beginning of Stephen and
    Alice’s journey to happiness. Enjoy this sweet Victorian tale of talent and
    love blossoming.

    Introducing Stephen Grafton

    Name: Stephen Grafton
    Age: 29
    Gender: Male
    Birthplace: Birmingham, England.
    Profession: Musician and composer, organist at Holy Trinity
    Church.
    Ethnicity:  English
    Stephen is approximately 5’10 in height, quite tall for the
    era he lives in. He is lean and slender with fair hair and expressive hands.
    Stephen has been blind since birth and uses a dog to help him, he calls the dog
    Blue.
    Who is the
    significant other in your character’s life?
    Alice Broadbrace.
    How does your hero
    dress?
    Stephen wears the fashions of his era, the early 1860’s. His
    day to day wear is a suit with tail coat, trousers and waistcoat. For recital
    performances he asks his valet to tie an elaborate bow tie for him. His dog,
    Blue, also has a bow on his collar for recital evenings. As the story is set in
    the winter Stephen wears a warm top coat and a hat. He does wear gloves as is
    socially acceptable for the era but he dislikes them as they mean he loses
    depth in his sense of touch.
    If you could only
    hear this character’s voice (but not see him) what characteristic would
    identify him?
    Self certainty and confidence radiate in Stephen’s voice. He
    has passed through many trials to reach the position he is in and this means he
    is definitely willing to voice his opinion with little fear.
    How educated is this
    character?
    Stephen has a doctorate in music from Cambridge. He prefers
    not to use the official title as he finds people make presumptions about him if
    he does. He takes an interest in things cultural and issues of the day in his
    local community. 
    Does he scrape by,
    live comfortably, live extravagantly?
    Stephen has his own home not too far from Holy Trinity
    Church. A legacy from a relative assisted him to attend Cambridge and once he
    qualified to purchase his home. He receives a salary from the church for his
    playing and his recitals. He lives comfortably enough with his dog, has a
    manservant to attend him and assist with the running of his house, and a maid
    of all work who comes in to clean.
    What is your
    character’s viewpoint on wealth?
    Wealth is a useful tool which enables Stephen to travel and
    live his life in the way he wishes. He does not consider himself to be a
    wealthy man in monetary terms he is far more concerned with his music.
    Are any of his skills
    a source of pride or embarrassment, and if so, which ones and why?
    When Stephen was a very small boy a tutor recognized his
    talent in music. He is a gifted musician and with coaching his skills improved
    to the point he could attend university to study further. Stephen is aware of
    his skills and is very demanding of himself in performance and composition. He
    would say he is always learning.
    What kinds of things
    does your character always carry in his pockets?
    Stephen usually carries a white linen handkerchief, keys to
    his home and to his cash box in the house. He also makes sure he has his coin
    holder and some dog biscuits as a treat for Blue.
    Does this character
    see morality as black-and-white, or with shades of gray?
    This question would entertain Stephen as being blind he
    doesn’t see the world through visuals but through touch, sound and smell.
    Stephen has a strong sense of what he considers right and wrong, and finds some
    social customs and expectations foolish especially those Alice believes might
    lead to gossip. He would say, the gossips should go and find more useful
    occupations.
    Does your character
    care about what others assume about him?
    In short, no. Stephen is a self confident person and has a
    vast amount of self belief. He takes care that his appearance and manners should
    be acceptable and has attained a level of independence he enjoys. If people
    assume he is weakened in any way by being blind he will do his best to show
    them that is not so. He does recognize there are situations when he requires
    some assistance and isn’t too proud to ask for it in unfamiliar places.

    About Your Writer

    Why do you think your
    writer chose to write about you?
    Ms. Banks enjoys the unusual and I suspect she found me a
    surprise and therefore wished to work with me. As the story continued I like to
    think Ms. Banks grew rather fond of Alice and I. We are both glad she told the
    story.
    What do you wish your
    writer had not told others about you?
    Nothing. I am aware that there are times in the story when I
    am forthright and frank but those qualities are part of my personality. I am
    sure readers will understand my motives for some comments were genuine concerns.
    I only wanted the best outcome possible.
    What other character
    from your book do you think your writer should write a book about, and why?
    I think Ms. Banks should devote sometime to Elijah Whistler,
    the owner of the Eagle Book Emporium. I would think there might be a natural
    affinity between the two, with his interest in books and her work as an author.
    If Ms. Banks spent some time working with him it might also soothe his
    discomfort at the outcome of my story.
    Why do you think your
    writer loves to write?
    Ms. Banks listens to music frequently but she is not
    musical. I am afraid that is a flaw I am forced to comment on. Ms. Banks
    neither plays nor sings and in my opinion she therefore devotes her energies to
    writing. I do know she is quite driven at times when she writes. Having some
    understanding of the creative process I recognize its grip on an individual.
    However, I still think she would be improved by a more direct association with
    music. When she began the tale I had hopes to influence her to at least take up
    some choral activity but sadly I failed.
    Is there anything
    you’d like to say to your writer?
    Ms. Banks, Alice and I thank you for putting our story into
    words.
