Fall for You from All You Need is Love (Boxed Set) by Valerie Ullmer @valerieullmer #RLFblog #NewRelease #MM
Valerie Ullmer, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about your book.
Fall for You by Valerie Ullmer
Genre New Adult M/M Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Ethan Sutton had come to the stunning revelation that he’d fallen in love with his best friend, Sebastian Young. Although friends since childhood, Ethan vowed to keep his feelings for Sebastian under wraps and live the rest of his life with this one secret between them rather than risk a lifelong connection and never see him again. But when they move into their own apartment at the start of their third year of college, can Ethan keep his feelings from showing when they live so close together?
Sebastian Young had an epiphany about Ethan at the end of last year and arranged for the shared apartment he’d found over the summer to be closer to Ethan and see if a relationship could develop between them. But as they settle into their lives in a new place with such close quarters, ex-girlfriends, nosy downstairs neighbors, and Sebastian’s own doubts, their relationship could be in jeopardy before it even begins.
Can two best friends admit their feelings and fall in love?
Ethan realized falling in love with his best friend had been easy. Keeping his feelings a secret from Sebastian as they move into a one-bedroom loft and deal with decisions from their past might prove a bit more difficult.
Why did you write this book?
I loved the idea of two close friends who develop feelings for one another, but they are afraid of ruining their friendship, so they keep their feelings to themselves.
What is your favorite genre to read?
Romance in general, Gay Romance in particular.
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
I don’t really have one. I could say Elizabeth Bennet, but every time I read a book, they become my favorite character for a while.
What are you working on at the moment?
Another book in my Dark Assassins series. Jade.
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I am working on my second full-length M/M novel, Unintended, in the Unexpected Series. I am also working on the start of another New Adult M/M series.Where to buy Fall for You

Denyse Bridger: Escape to Africa by @WRWWorldRomance #RLFblog #romance
Welcome Denysé Bridger author of Escape to Africa, a new romantic suspense boxed set.
Why did you write this book?
This particular set of stories came about as the World Romance Writers chatted about themes for future sets after the best-selling debut set, Letterbox Love Stories. We wanted to do something a little more exotic and add a touch of suspense, so the idea of tales set in Africa was born. I’ve long been a lover of the movie Casablanca, and wanted to try something in a similar vein to the movie. So, with a tip of the hat to that classic movie, I hope you enjoy a peek at this one–the first in a series of stories with this set of characters because I know their adventure is just beginning…
What is your favorite genre to read?
I read a lot of different genres, but pretty much all have an element of romance in them. These days I tend to be reading cozy mysteries, which I adore but can’t write, sadly. I also read a lot of romantic suspense and find a lot of excellent authors in the Love Inspired Suspense line from Harlequin, one of my favourite authors there is Elizabeth Goddard, her series’ never disappoint!
Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
That would have to be Sherlock Holmes, or his more modern counterpart, William Murdoch from Maureen Jennings Murdoch Mysteries series. Both are Victorian in setting, and both men are fascinating as they hunt down villains with shrewd intellect and logic.
What are you working on at the moment?
At the moment I’m working on a story I pitched to Harlequin, it’s all Canadian, really. Canadian setting, Canadian hero and heroine, and the author is from Eastern Canada! This is the first time in many years that I’ve written a story set in my own country, I tend to write in settings that I feel are a little more exotic, but this one has me very excited. It’s got a passionate romance, and a lot of suspense elements, as well as Native American roots. I think it’s going to be a very strong story!
What books will we see from you in coming months?
I’m in a new boxed set from the authors at Romance Books 4 Us, plus I’m doing a book for an on-going theme set called Hidden. I have no less than four projects in the works to be ready by mid-2018. Wish me luck!! I also have three new series in the works – and I was always the one who never wrote with the idea of a series in mind.
Please tell us about your latest book.
Escape to Africa: A Dangerous Liaison
Let your wild side free and Escape to Africa! Come along on an adventure through these 6 stories brought to you by 6 best-selling/award-winning authors.
