    Know the Heroine from Naval Maneuvers by Dee S Knight @DeeSKnight #RLFblog #Romance #Military

    Know the Heroine from Naval Maneuvers by Dee S Knight @DeeSKnight #RLFblog #Romance #MilitaryFalling in love is only half the battle for Mel Crandall. She must overcome long-held prejudices about the military and move on, or take the chance of losing her love in Dee S Knight's Naval Maneuvers.

    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 heroine, but first, tell us about Naval Maneuvers.

    Naval Maneuvers by Dee S Knight

    Genre Contemporary erotic romance
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): X

    Men and women of the armed forces experience desire and love pretty much like everyone else. Except, well, there is that uniform. And the hard-to-resist attraction of "duty, honor, service" as a man might apply them to a woman's pleasure. All things considered, romance among the military is a pretty sexy, compelling force for which you'd better be armed, whether weighing anchor and moving forward into desire, dropping anchor and staying put for passion, or setting a course for renewed love with anchor home.

    Know the Heroine from Naval Maneuvers

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

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

    Makes a cup of cocoa and binge-watches cooking shows.

    What kind of food would she impulse buy if hungry?

    Dark chocolate M&Ms. As a doctor she knows they're not really "food" or good for her, but sometimes you just gotta live a little.

    Describe the kind of clothes she prefers to wear.

    Classic styles—trouser pants with pleats and a belt when going out casually and soft, collared blouses. She has three distinct little black dresses and almost always wears dresses or skirts when going out for an evening. She enjoys heels because they make her feel feminine (and yes, sexy!) but is just as comfortable in flats. Clothing must be comfortable and she tends towards the flowy, draping types of materials of very good quality.

    Does she know how to fix things?

    Yes, she's a good handyman type. Her dad was gone a lot while she was growing up (in the Marine Corps) and her mom insisted she know how to take care of herself. No matter how much you might want it (her mom would say), men aren't always there right when you need them to fix a faucet. This is one of the things Mel dislikes about the military—that it requires long periods of being apart from the person you love and need the most.

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

    She took test in high school English after watching TV the night before instead of studying. After all, she'd read the material, right? No need to reviewt he class notes too. So seeing the questions shook her up and her grade reflected her lack of preparation. Since she'd always wanted to be a doctor, it hit her then that lack of preparation could mean a life instead of a bad grade and she never slacked off again.

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

    She likes kids but she's an only child, so she doesn't have a lot of personal interaction with them.

    What is she like first thing in the morning?

    Years of schooling and then internship and residency ingrained a sense of waking up quickly and getting a move-on. That's what she's like every morning. Up, shower, dress, coffee, and she's off!

    Can she use chopsticks?

    Yes, though she doesn't usually, even in Asian restaurants. She's normally in a hurry and forks simply have that time advantage.

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

    OMG, YES! She takes it as God intended—black and without sugar.

    What apps would she have on her phone?

    Her hospital's app, one for her email server, JAMA, and the Food Network.

    Android or iPhone?

    iPhone

    Earrings or unpierced ears?

    Pierced ears. She usually wears stud style because anything that dangles could get in the way while she's working.

    Tattoos or unadorned skin?

    Unadorned

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Because her job is unpredictable, she drives herself most of the time. Plus, public transport isn't that great around Charlottesville.

    Recycle or toss?

    Recycle. It's something small she can do.

    Know the Heroine from You See Me by Gabbi Grey @gabbigrey #RLFblog #lesfic #WriteLGBTQ

    Elouise is recovering from a broken heart by filming in a new movie up in Vancouver, Canada. When she meets Kelci, a make-up artist, sparks fly.  Will they cross borders to find their happily ever after?

    Gabbi, 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 heroine, but first, tell us about You See Me.

    You See Me by Gabbi Grey

    Know the Heroine from You See Me by Gabbi Grey @gabbigrey #RLFblog #lesfic #WriteLGBTQGenre LGBTQ romance
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R!

    Elouise

    After a public break-up with my fiancée, I’ve retrenched in Vancouver, British Columbia to lick my wounds and star in a movie. I’m acting as if everything is okay, but then I meet a woman who sees the real me. Dare I take a chance to find real love?

    Kelci

    I’ve admired Elouise Hynes from afar for years. She’s recently come out of the closet and was dumped just a short time later. I want to offer comfort, but I’m a make-up artist on her movie crew. Can we really form a lasting bond when she lives in LA and I’m staying in Canada?

    Know the Heroine from You See Me

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

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

    Elouise is a huge fan of cat and dog videos.  She’s very much a small-town girl and would much rather hang out at home than go out in the big city.

    What kind of food would she impulse buy if hungry?

    She might or might not have a bit of a sweet tooth and might, on occasion, indulge in some ice cream.

    Describe the kind of clothes she prefers to wear.

    Although the characters she portrays in films often wear dresses, Elouise is very much of the ‘comfort is everything’ motto and she loves her jeans and sweaters.

    Does she know how to fix things?

    Growing up in rural Newfoundland, Canada, Elouise learned how to build things, fix things, and to knit.  She’s independent and is fiercely proud to stand on her own.

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

    For Elouise, her first disaster was her first lesbian relationship.  She met a woman she loved and finally came out of the closet only to be dumped publicly and humiliated.  After that, she swore off love.

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

    Elouise loves kids.  She’ll happily get down on their level as she helped raise her younger siblings.

    What is she like first thing in the morning?

    Having grown up in a fishing village in rural Newfoundland, Elouise is accustomed to early hours.  As one of the biggest film actresses in Hollywood, she often has early call times and cheerfully arrives on time, if not early.

    Can she use chopsticks?

    Although she’s lived in Los Angeles for years, and eaten at many different restaurants, chopsticks are her kryptonite.

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

    Elouise is a true Canadian – she loves Tim Hortons Double Double coffee (black coffee with two shots of milk and two sugars).

    What apps would she have on her phone?

    Her fitness app is likely her favorite as she enjoys a sense of accomplishment when she hits her targets.  She also has an apps to order Tim Hortons and Starbucks and, finally, she has an app to listen to her favorite audiobooks – most especially Canadian post-modern literature.

    Android or iPhone?

    Elouise loves her iPhone because she can stream old movies on it.

    Earrings or unpierced ears?

    Her work requires her to have pierced ears, and she loves the teardrop diamond ones.

    Tattoos or unadorned skin?

    Some actresses might have tattoos these days – great makeup is a thing – but Elouise prefers unadorned skin.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Growing up in a rural small-town, she only had the family car or truck to get her around.  When she first got to LA, she was fine with transit.  These days, though, being so famous, she’s more likely to hail a cab.  She tries to nab electric or hybrid ones as she’s worried about the environment.

    Recycle or toss?

    Elouise is an environmentalist all the way.  She’ll go out of her way to find a recycling container and prefers her own refillable water bottle.

    Know the Heroine from Bonding in Buenos Aires by Gabbi Black @GabbiAuthor #RLFblog #Romance

    Know the Heroine from Bonding in Buenos Aires by Gabbi Black @GabbiAuthor #RLFblog #RomanceGabbi, 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 heroine, but first, tell us about Bonding in Buenos Aires.

    Bonding in Buenos Aires by Gabbi Black

    Genre BDSM romance
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R

    Argentinian Joaquin Perillo met MacKenzie and Kimberly at a cybersecurity conference two years ago. Another conference in Houston and video chats sealed his attraction for them both. Now they are visiting him in Buenos Aires, and he has so many plans for them—in and out of bed.

    Canadian Kimberly is a security analyst by day and a Domme at Vancouver’s premier BDSM Club Kink at night. She can’t wait to see her men again so she can whip them into shape.

    Texan MacKenzie is a computer geek who spends all his time with code. That is until he meets the beguiling Kimberly and the fun-loving Joaquin. Suddenly, he’s ready to break out of his self-imposed exile.

    The triad have ten days to enjoy their ménage before they have to return to their prospective countries. Because their relationship can’t cross borders or become permanent…right?

    Know the Heroine from Bonding in Buenos Aires

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

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

    If it’s a weekday, Kimberly might troll the internet for some cute dog videos. If the timing’s right, she might get on a call with Joaquin, MacKenzie, or – even better – both. Weekends she’ll head to the local kink club. The Domme has regulars who like to play with her, but she’ll also do pick-up play if someone catches her attention and she can vet them.

    What kind of food would she impulse buy if hungry?

    Almost forty, Kimberly’s conscious of her body and how she feels within her skin. She tends to be careful about what she eats, but she’ll go for a tray of nachos with cheese, salsa, and jalapeños as a treat.

    Describe the kind of clothes she prefers to wear.

    She works from home as a computer security analyst, so she’s all about the yoga pants and sweatshirt…during the work week. On weekends? She’s a Domme at Club Kink in Vancouver and she’s all about the leather corset, short leather skirt, nylons, and skyscraper heels. She’s also a fan of latex for herself or for her submissives.

    Does she know how to fix things?

    She lives in her own home and has learned how to fix plenty of stuff using YouTube videos and do-it-yourself instructions on websites. She takes great pride in being independent.

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

    Adventurous, Kimberly embraced her kinky lifestyle years ago. She apprenticed under several well-known Doms and Dommes in Vancouver and would never try something in public until she felt proficient and competent. Unfortunately all the planning in the world can’t prevent the inevitable mistakes. She was whipping a new bottom one night, soon after attending her first public event, and the whip wrapped. The whip strike went wide and wrapped around her bottom’s side. The guy was fine, truly, but Kimberly was spooked and it took a lot more practice before she was willing to try again in public. Now, she teaches other newbies.

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

    She’s comfortable with children. She’s talk to the young ones, hold babies comfortably, and chats tech with teenagers. She just…doesn’t want any of her own.

    What is she like first thing in the morning?

    Kimberly usually works late into the night, so she’s not exactly a morning person. Except when she’s at conferences and on holiday when she wants to pack in as much adventure as she can during those short vacations.

    Can she use chopsticks?

    She’s grown up in multi-cultural Vancouver and her parents took her to restaurants all over the city and yeah, she knows how to use chopsticks.

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

    She loves tea and will drink coffee on occasion. Do not give her mate – as Joaquin and MacKenzie learned – it doesn’t end well.

    What apps would she have on her phone?

    She selects apps that streamline her life. She tracks her calendar, keeps in touch with her BDSM friends, and orders food on her phone. That being said, she’s paranoid about the use of her personal data and is careful about anything she adds to her phone.

    Android or iPhone?

    iPhone all the way

    Earrings or unpierced ears?

    Earrings. Her favorite pair is mini handcuffs.

    Tattoos or unadorned skin?

    She’s unadorned. Might consider getting something to remind her of her two men, but nothing so far.

    Personal vehicle or public transport?

    Vancouver has a good public transportation system that she’ll use, but the acquisition of two men means she needs more to get them around town. Also, hard to haul all her BDSM gear on the SkyTrain…

    Recycle or toss?

    Recycle all the way. Kimberly strives to buy as few material things as possible and avoids packaging whenever she can. She’s an environmentally minded strong woman who wants to leave the planet in the best shape she possibly can.

    Gillian is not one to give up—not even when events threaten the Guild’s very survival.

    Lisabet, 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 heroine, but first, tell us about The Master’s Mark.

    The Master’s Mark by Lisabet Sarai

    Genre Steampunk erotic romance

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): Five flames

    How do you train a steampunk sexbot?

    Gillian Smith’s promotion to journeyman proves she’s ready to lead the Toymakers in producing astonishing new erotic artifacts. Creative, brilliant, and debauched, she’ll stretch her capabilities to the limit as she juggles a talent shortage and a pair of jealous rivals. Then there’s the challenge of their latest commission—a life-sized programmable sex doll intended to replace a client’s deceased paramour.

    Normally she would consult the enigmatic Master Toymaker, but he seems preoccupied with his own concerns. Though her lusty crew of sexual renegades can offer technical and carnal assistance, Gillian is ultimately responsible for delivering the promised, near-impossible technology.

    It’s fortunate she’s not one to give up—not even when events threaten the Guild’s very survival.

    Know the Heroine from The Master’s Mark

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

    Describe the kind of clothes she prefers to wear.

    Gillian Smith is a no-nonsense young woman who has no interest in or patience with fashion. She wants practical clothing that isn’t likely to get damaged in the laboratory when she’s working on batteries or motors. Of course, in the Victorian period even “simple” clothes were complicated. Women wore long skirts and bodices with dozens of buttons, with several layers of undergarments. In polite society, hats were required. Going without a corset was considered scandalous.

    Gillian really doesn’t care. With her slender figure, she doesn’t need a corset, and she certainly won’t agree to be uncomfortable for the sake of propriety. In fact, when she’s working, she prefers to don a sturdy, ankle-length, button-up-the-front lab coat – sometimes with nothing underneath!

    Does she know how to fix things?

    That is an understatement. It’s difficult to imagine something Gillian couldn’t fix. She is an engineering prodigy, a whiz with both mechanical and electrical systems. Her father and mother – deceased in an experimental balloon accident – were noted inventors who thoroughly schooled her in math and science as well as the use of tools and the fabrication of machines.

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

    Even with her amazing talent, Gillian doesn’t always succeed in solving technical problems on the first try. For example, in The Master’s Mark, she tries to use an approach similar to modern machine learning to train the automaton they’re building. After multiple attempts, she concludes this isn’t possible, mostly because she can’t create sensors that are sufficiently precise.

    Initially, this sort of setback will dampen her spirits. However, before long she will have come up with an alternative approach to solving her problems.

    She’s quite involved with her work emotionally, so she takes failures to heart. On the other hand, she has an engineer’s typical optimism. Plus she’s extremely persistent.

    What is she like first thing in the morning?

    Gillian’s a morning person. She gets up early in order to get to work in the Toymakers Guild lab, and normally will be awake and alert the minute she opens her eyes.

    Maid or takes care of herself?

    Gillian’s family, like many entrepreneurs, never made much money from their inventions. So she’s quite used to taking care of herself. Given her casual approach to her appearance, this isn’t difficult.

    After her parents’ death, she lived for several years with her wealthier aunt and uncle. Gillian treated their maid Leticia as her friend and confidante – not her servant.

    Carriage or horseback?

    Having grown up near London, Gillian didn’t have much equestrian experience until she moved to the Guild headquarters at Randerley Hall in Devon. However, her fellow journeyman Rafe Wystock persuaded her to go out riding on the moors. At first she was nervous about being on horseback, but she quickly discovered she loved riding – especially in Rafe’s company!

    Know the Heroine from A Witch’s Holiday Wedding

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

    Do you know how to fix things?

    Yes. I had to make do with a shoe string budget when she worked for Gwen in the Salem Sanctuary for ten years. Now the knowledge comes in hand for my own Rescue and Rehab in Lobster Cove, Maine.

    What are you like first thing in the morning?

    Slow and a bit of a bear first thing in the morning. I’m a night owl by nature.

    How do you act around people who don’t know what you are?

    Friendly but reserved. No one but my close friends and family know I’m a witch. I want to keep it that way.

    Do you let a worker handle things or do it yourself?

    I’ve hired responsible workers and let them handle the tasks assigned. They know to come to me with any questions.

    Recycle or toss?

    Recyle

    Who is the significant other in your life?

    Lathen Quartz

    Do you get by, live comfortably, live extravagantly?

    I live to get by comfortably. There’s too much unknown in the world of wildlife rescue to live extravagantly. The creatures in your care many need the funds more than you.

    What is your viewpoint on wealth?

    I live on a comfortable budget. I always believe in putting funds away for unexpected expenses. Believe me, there are always unexpected expenses with animal rescue, some in life or death situations.

    Do you see morality as black-and-white, or with shades of gray?

    Oh definitely black-and-white. There’s wrong and right, bad and good. I’m aware everyone makes mistakes, I’ve certainly made my share. But when individuals are purposely doing something cruel and someone or a poor creature ends up paying the price. That is unacceptable under any circumstances.

    If you could make any one thing happen, what would it be?

    That every mistreated animal or injured creature find safety in a wildlife sanctuary or be treated and released into their natural habitat. As far as people are concerned, I wish they’d realize that they are forever responsible for that which they have tamed.

    What is your biggest personal flaw?

    I tend to like animals more than I do people except the friends and family I surround myself with. I don’t trust easily. That trust has to be earned and a lot of people see that as unfair. It used to bother me what others thought, but now I figure it’s their loss.

    Thanks for helping us get to know your heroine!
