    Know the Hero from Famous Murders by Ann Raina #RLFblog #crime #thrillerIn Ann Raina’s thriller Famous Murders, the FBI Agents Hayes and Beckham are assigned to solve the case of three murders in Washington, DC, and its vicinity. Can they catch him before he strikes again?

    Ann, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We’re excited to find out more about your hero, but first, tell us about Famous Murders.

    Famous Murders by Ann Raina

    Genre Romantic Suspense

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    A killer on the loose, an FBI-agent in love, and a famous actor in danger.

    After three murders in the Washington, DC, vicinity, the FBI Agents Hayes and Beckham are assigned to solve the case. Although the murders seem incoherent at first, it becomes clear that there are connections between them. It turns out that the murderer is far from having reached the end of his deadly list.

    Aside from the investigation, Agent Hayes has to find a way to get on with his demanding girlfriend and her challenging love games. Can he do both and not lose himself?

    This is the second book in the series with Nicolas and Jacklyn. Nicolas is an FBI agent dealing with capital crime, but the story also contains quite a unique erotic romance, including Jacklyn’s preference to tie her boyfriend up. That means the novel is rated R for sure.

    Know the Hero from Famous Murders

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your hero.

    It’s late, he’s bored. What does he do?

    Go for a run, watch a football game and have a beer to go with it. However, if Jacklyn is home, there’s no time for boredom because she doesn’t even know how the word’s spelled. LOL.

    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?

    Anything that keeps him going. When on a stakeout, he can’t be picky about food. So, from sandwich to fries to cake, anything goes—maybe not at the same time…

    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.

    Sporting shoes and jeans, shirts that show off his muscles. He’s quite proud of his body, and he knows that his girlfriend likes the show of strength even more.

    Does he know how to fix things?

    He knew how to fix Jacklyn’s car when it broke down on the highway. That’s how they met. I wouldn’t call him an apt handyman in general.

    He tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.

    Dancing. He tried, he failed miserably, and he never tried again. Whenever Jacklyn brings up the subject, he turns away, claiming he’s got two left feet which might or might not be true. Who knows?

    How does he act around children he doesn’t know?

    Careful. In his profession, he’s learned to deal with any kind of people, but he’s especially careful around children.

    What is he like first thing in the morning?

    Slow, tired, and grumpy—very much unlike Jacklyn, who’s bright-eyed and bushy-tailed when the sun’s up. Of course, this leads to interesting moments when they meet in the kitchen for the first cup of coffee…

    Can he use chopsticks?

    The necessity to use them has not yet occurred, so I don’t know.

    Does he drink coffee? If so, how does he take it? If not, what does he drink instead?

    He’s addicted to his partner’s special brew, a rare and expensive brand from Brazil, with a drop of milk (to not ruin the taste…)

    Beard or clean-shaven?

    Clean shaven. Always. And not only his face.

    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?

    According to FBI rules, he’s not wearing any jewelry and didn’t have the urge to have a tattoo. So it’s just him.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Personal and certainly a service car while he’s on the job.

    Recycle or toss?

    Recycle whenever possible without stressing the necessity.

    Thanks for helping us get to know your hero!

    Know the Hero from A Rose By Any Other Name by Alana Lorens @AlexanderLyndi #RLFblog #SecondChanceRomanceRussell Asher expected so much more from his life. Marisol Herrera’s finally growing into hers. When they meet again at their high school reunion, the sparks fly in the latest contemporary romance by Alana Lorens, A Rose by Any Other Name.

    Alana, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We’re excited to find out more about your hero, but first, tell us about A Rose By Any Other Name.

    A Rose By Any Other Name by Alana Lorens

    Genre second chance contemporary romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): G

    Up-and-coming mommyblogger and single mom Marisol Herrera Slade returns to her old hometown in western Pennsylvania for her 20th high school reunion in 2005, reluctant and yet compelled to see her high school sweetheart, Russell Asher, who dumped her for the homecoming queen.

    Russell’s marriage to the golden girl, however, ended in a nasty divorce, and he has been systematically excluded from his sons’ lives. In his Internet wanderings, he’s found feminist blogger named Jerrika Jones, who glorifies single motherhood, essentially putting a stamp of approval on what’s happened to him. His group of single dad advocates have vowed to take this woman down.

    What Russell doesn’t know, when he thinks to rekindle what he had with Marisol, is that Marisol and Jerrika are one and the same. When his group discovers the truth, will their drive for revenge derail any chance the couple have to reunite? Or will they find they have more in common than they ever expected?

    Know the Hero from A Rose By Any Other Name

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your hero.

    It’s late, he’s bored. What does he do?

    He definitely picks up the video game controller and heads off to play some MMORPG—NBA Street 3, or Splinter Cell. More often than not he gets caught up in it and finds it hard to get up for work on three hours’ sleep.

    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?

    Burgers. If he’s looking for comfort food, then it’s something cheap, greasy and full of mayo.

    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.

    At work, he’s strictly a suit and tie guy, very professional. He wants it that way. But off duty, he’s more a khakis and polo kind of guy. His tennis shows are always name brand, though—comes from the high school days of playing team basketball.

    Does he know how to fix things?

    His dad was a putterer, so Russell knows a little about a lot of things. He can jury-rig most anything so it’ll work—for a while. But he’s more likely to hire someone to make the real repairs.

    He tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.

    It’s an ongoing struggle for him to see his sons. His ex-wife was the most popular (and richest) girl in school, and she’s got a rich daddy to buy her essentially everything she wants. Including finding ways to block Russell from any pleasure in the boys, He’s tried dropping in unexpectedly, making an effort to enforce the court order, calling, writing letters and everything he can think of, but he hasn’t been able to break that small-town power her family holds.

    How does he act around children he doesn’t know?

    He likes children. Since it’s so hard for him to see his own, he automatically relates to most kids he meets. Several kids live in his apartment complex, and he’ll always be friendly, help them out if their bike has a problem, do what he can for them.

    What is he like first thing in the morning?

    Most days he’s bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. He wants to make his way up the drug store chain’s corporate ladder, so he’s in fifteen minutes early at 5:45 AM, getting a head start on the work for the day. He’s the district manager now, but he’ll be regional manager if his work just gets a little more noticed. Then maybe he’ll be good enough for Tiffany to let him see his sons.

    Can he use chopsticks?

    Sure!

    Does he drink coffee? If so, how does he take it? If not, what does he drink instead?

    Oh, yes. If he didn’t, those first morning hours would be real hard. He can drink it any time of the day, too, so he’s lucky like that. Probably a throwback to the high school days when he and the guys would head out to the chain restaurant on the bypass and order coffee and a large plate of fries and sit and drink until the wee hours.

    What apps would he have on his phone?
    none

    Android or iPhone?

    Blackberry, actually.

    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?

    Managers have a pretty strict dress code—if they want to move up the chain of command. Russell is most assuredly a conservative dresser with none of those things, beard either…

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Personal vehicle, because he’s got to a) travel among the stores under his command, and b) because he has to drive back to Pennsylvania to see his aging parents and attempt to visit with his teenaged sons.

    Recycle or toss?

    Depends where he is. He’s got a recycle bucket at the apartment, but if he’s out playing basketball or on the beach at Mentor Headlands, he’s just as likely to toss.

    Know the Hero from The Man of Her Dreams by Dee S Knight @DeeSKnight #RLFblog #ContemporaryRomance #ParanormalRomance #PNR

    The paranormal helps love along in Dee S. Knight's The Man of Her Dreams

    Are psychics real? Dan says NO... Until Cassandra predicts his death. Now he's checking over his shoulder.

    Dee, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I'm Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We're excited to find out more about your hero, but first, tell us about the book.

    The Man of Her Dreams by Dee S Knight

    Genre Contemporary erotic romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    Cassandra Hudson has traveled across country to a small town in South Carolina to find a tall man with deep, blue eyes that she's only met in her dreams. She "sees" that he's in danger and wants to stop him from a possible death. But more than that, she's desperate to solve a mystery that involves her husband who has been dead for over two years. Too bad for her, her dream man wants to solve the mysteries of her body more than help her find a solution to her problem.

    When Dan Morgan stops to help a beautiful woman on the side of the road outside his hometown, he doesn't realize that she will drag him into the world of the paranormal in an effort to find out what happened to her husband and the half million dollars he was accused of stealing. What he does realize is the strong attraction he feels for her, despite his distrust of anything mystical, and the undeniable power she holds over him using her sexy body as a lure.

    Love—if they can capture it—will make it both easier and harder for them to find the answers they need.

    Know the Hero from The Man of Her Dreams

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your hero.

    It's late, he's bored. What does he do?

    Stock up his cooler and go out onto the lake to fish. There's nothing that man loves more than fishing. Well, let me amend that. There's at least one more thing he loves more than fishing…

    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?

    If a juicy hamburger were not available, he'd probably pick up a moon pie.

    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.

    He's a casual kind of guy all the way. Jeans, tee shirts or button downs with the sleeves rolled up. Tennis shoes or boots. Baseball cap. When he goes to church or to his Mama's for Sunday dinner (which is really the only time he goes to church), he dresses in slacks, button down shirt and jacket, and his shoes are polished.

    Does he know how to fix things?

    Oh yes! Give him the right tools and he can get most anything going. Since leaving the San Francisco police department and returning home to South Carolina, he's taken up furniture making, so he's good with his hands. Cassandra can vouch for that, too. 😉

    He tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.

    When still on the police force, he reluctantly believed a psychic while they searched for a missing boy. The child was found dead. Dan left the force shortly thereafter and that incident fueled his distrust of the metaphysical.

    How does he act around children he doesn't know?

    He's rarely around children at all, much less ones he doesn't know. He would treat them politely but move away from them as soon as was possible.

    What is he like first thing in the morning?

    He gets up and gets going. He's usually been out fishing before breakfast and often fries up his catch for his morning meal.

    Can he use chopsticks?

    He can, but doesn't see the point.

    Does he drink coffee? If so, how does he take it? If not, what does he drink instead?

    Coffee, black, please.

    What apps would he have on his phone?

    Yahoo, the weather, any apps for woodworking forums

    Android or iPhone?

    iPhone

    Beard or clean-shaven?

    Clean shaven—when he's going to his mother's. He might go a day (or three) without shaving if he's hanging around the house or shop or just going into town.

    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?

    No, nothing.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    He loves his pickup and uses that all the time. He has a fifth-wheel trailer that he uses when getting away for a time.

    Recycle or toss?

    Recycle.

  • Christmas or Holiday,  Know the Hero

    Know the Hero from First Class Christmas by Katy Eeten @KatyEeten #RLFblog #ChristmasRomance

    Know the Hero from First Class Christmas by Katy Eeten @KatyEeten #RLFblog #ChristmasRomanceLove is in the air this Christmas with Katy Eeten’s contemporary Christian romance, First Class Christmas. Discover how a simple holiday flight changes everything.

    Katy, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We’re excited to find out more about your hero, but first, tell us about First Class Christmas.

    First Class Christmas by Katy Eeten

    Genre Contemporary Christian Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): G

    When Mandy Brockman flies home from her friend’s destination wedding, her heart is on empty at the thought of spending Christmas alone. It doesn’t help that her ex is on the plane, seemingly unaffected by their breakup. But the kind-hearted man seated next to her seems to have it all together—and he’s handsome to boot. She knows her emotional healing won’t come in the form of another guy, but will the source of this man’s peace and joy help Mandy find the Christmas she’s looking for?

    CJ Hawkins is captivated by the beautiful, feisty woman he meets on his flight. The only thing is, she’s fresh out of a relationship, and he has no interest in being anyone’s rebound. But the more he learns about Mandy, the more he’s drawn to her unique mixture of compassion and spunk.

    Can he figure out how to make their relationship take off before this First Class Christmas is grounded forever?

    Know the Hero from First Class Christmas

    It’s late, he’s bored. What does he do?

    He takes his dog for a walk, then turns on the TV and watches whatever’s on while texting a few buddies to see if they want to grab coffee the next day.

    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?

    He’s an Olympic pole vaulter, so probably something on the healthy side—I’m thinking sunflower seeds or a smoothie.

    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.

    He’s trendy when he needs to be, but in general prefers casual and comfortable. Unless he’s going on a date someplace nice—he cleans up good, that’s for sure.

    Does he know how to fix things?

    Basic stuff, sure. But his dad died when he was eleven, so he missed out on learning some of that stuff, being raised by a single mom.

    He tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.

    He’s the type that seems to succeed at everything he does. But there was that one time he invited a low-key girl to an upscale restaurant, making her feel out of place. He felt awful, especially since fancy isn’t his jam either. But he was able to smooth things over, so no harm done.

    How does he act around children he doesn’t know?

    He’s great with kids. In fact, his job is running the after-school program at a non-profit in Minneapolis.

    What is he like first thing in the morning?

    Annoyingly cheerful.

    Can he use chopsticks?

    Not well. It’s one of the only things he can’t do.

    Does he drink coffee? If so, how does he take it? If not, what does he drink instead?

    Yes—black. No need to dress it up.

    What apps would he have on his phone?

    Definitely sports apps to keep up on scores and stats along with the basic social media stuff. He’s an athlete, after all, and has a small following from his time in the Olympics.

    Android or iPhone?

    iPhone

    Beard or clean-shaven?

    Stubble.

    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?

    Unadorned. He toyed with a cross tattoo, but decided against it in the end.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Both. He takes the bus to and from the airport for convenience, but has his own car for local travel.

    Recycle or toss?

    Oh, he’s a recycler for sure.

    In His Kiss by Neil S Plakcy @NeilPlakcy #RLFblog #NewRelease #MMRomance #YA

    Know the Hero from In His Kiss by Neil S Plakcy @neilplakcy #RLFblog #YA The sun shone on a beautiful country meadow. I walked across luxuriant green grass, wearing a pair of Bermuda shorts and my favorite T-shirt, the one that read “Brains are awesome—everyone should have one.”

    Michael Torani is an average seventeen-year-old —not the smartest nor the most popular boy in his school. So he has no clue that his crush on the super cute but nerdy new guy Daniel Florez will soon result in their sharing a deep soul kiss — a kiss that will change Michael’s life forever.

    Neil, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! We’re excited to find out more about your hero, but first, tell us about In His Kiss.

    In His Kiss by Neil S Plakcy

    Genre Young Adult MM Romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG-13

    Just one kiss from hot new boy Daniel Florez turns Michael Torani’s world into something from the Sci-Fi Channel — have Daniel’s brain cells been leaking into him? How’s that possible? And yet he’s reading faster than he ever has before, scoring higher on school tests, and even helping his parents understand what’s wrong with his brother, the Big Mistake.

    Michael’s wry, funny attitude about growing up, falling in love and getting away from his parents will make you want to be his new best friend. Fans of Richelle Mead and Stephenie Meyer will fall in love with Michael and Daniel as they depend on their brains and their deep emotional connection to survive– and maybe even graduate from high school along the way.

    Know the Hero from In His Kiss

    Here are some fun questions to help us know your hero.

    It’s late, he’s bored. What does he do?

    Michael sneaks out his bedroom window to the home of his neighbor and BFF Brie, where they listen to emo music and gossip about high school, teachers, and boys.

    What kind of food would he impulse buy if hungry?

    What any teen his age would eat—pizza, burgers, chocolate.

    Describe the kind of clothes he prefers to wear.

    If he could get away with it, Michael would live in faded denims and jewel-toned polo shirts. But occasionally he’l change it up with khakis and button-down oxford cloth shirts.

    Does he know how to fix things?

    Michael is much better at breaking things than fixing them. Just ask his father.

    He tried to do something and it went badly. Tell us about it.

    Michael needed cash to buy himself a new iPad touch. So he got a part-time job watering plants in the greenhouse at the back of the florist’s. No brainer, huh? Only you had to figure out all these complicated mixtures of fertilizer to put in the water. The rose bushes got one kind of food, the succulents another.

    He loved that word, succulent. It represented the whole experience, the way the job totally sucked.

    After he nearly killed a whole rack of orchids by giving them too much water and too little food, he got sacked. Conveniently, just as he earned the money he needed.

    How does he act around children he doesn’t know?

    Well, at seventeen he’s barely out of childhood himself, so he pretty much ignores them unless they have chocolate to offer.

    What is he like first thing in the morning?

    Grumpy. His parents say he’s too young for coffee, and his mother only prepares gluten-free food because his brother, the Big Mistake, has food issues. So his breakfast is limited to tough pancakes or gluey oatmeal. Neither of which makes him happy.

    Can he use chopsticks?

    That would imply that his family was allowed to eat food from unusual cultures. Because of the Big Mistake, that’s a Big No.

    Does he drink coffee? If so, how does he take it? If not, what does he drink instead?

    His mother insists on milk, which he doctors with chocolate syrup.

    What apps would he have on his phone?

    What wouldn’t he have? Tik-Tok, Instagram, Snapchat, WhatsApp, GroupMe, and a few that his parents don’t know about like Grindr, which he downloads, checks out, then deletes almost immediately.

    Android or iPhone?

    iPhone. He has as many iProducts as Apple makes.

    Beard or clean-shaven?

    Clean-shaven, though he wishes he could grow a sexy beard, but maybe in time.

    Earrings/piercings/tattoos or unadorned skin?

    His parents would FREAK OUT if he had piercings or tattoos. Which might be fun, if he wasn’t afraid of them and the places you get them.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    His personal vehicle is a bicycle, though he is learning to drive.

    Recycle or toss?

    He loves to harass his parents if they accidentally toss something that could be recycled. He’s going to inherit the planet, you know. And for extra guilt, pollution could have a bad effect on the Big Mistake, and you know, as good parents, his wouldn’t want to do anything to hurt their child.

    The Healer

    Doctor Gage Ewing is on the run from a past he can never forget. No matter how many people he saves in hospitals or on the crime-ridden streets, he can never be forgiven for the one who died.

    The Soldier

    IrishMist “Ivy” Vaughn has been fighting to stay alive since the age of twelve, trained with warrior skills to be whatever is demanded of her. No permanent home. Living out of a duffel bag.

    Bernadette Jones Social Media

    Bernadette Jones has been making up stories since she learned to read on her daddy’s lap. She has imagined casts of characters everywhere she’s called home: Texas, Oregon, Washington, South Dakota, Nebraska, Illinois, Massachusetts, and now New York.
    Books and music filled her life as she, her dad and two brothers traveled the country. She would sit in the back seat of the car—her older brother always got to ride shotgun—listening to the current music on the radio, looking out the window and spinning a story based on a phrase she’d heard in the lyrics. As you can imagine, traveling the country, the music changed from state to state, as did the stories. To this day, she enjoys a wide variety of music and book genres.
    After a career in corporate writing, she’s decided to settle down and put pen to paper doing what she loves. Living the dream in her NYC apartment with her canine companion, she’s bringing her stories and characters to life.
