The Last Dragon by Daryl Devore
Genre Medieval Fantasy Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): GWriters write in seclusion and dream of readers loving their books. Your interest in my work puts a smile on my face, warmth in my heart and will keep me writing. I am an eclectic writer. I write romance but in many genres and heat levels. Sweet romances – The Gift, Christmas Notes, Dancing in Circles, and others. Hot romances – Desires, Love My Fate, Two Truths and a Lie and many more. There are also compilations where I have bundled romances together to heat up your evening – Hot and Hotter, Love a Billionaire and Capturing His Heart.
The Last Dragon is my first foray into writing medieval fantasy romance and may I say I had a blast writing it. There are knights, dragons and faeries all set in a mythical, medieval kingdom millennia ago. When I wrote it, it was a single book, but my muse had other ideas. Tomorrow on Romance Lives Forever, the second book in the series is featured – A Voice in the Air. The series is now titled Long Ago, and a third book is currently being written, but it has no title yet as I am only on chapter 2. But so far there is a faerie, a prince and some wyverns.
I do not have a conventional newsletter. I have an author group where I can chat with my readers about my books and my life and not fill up their inboxes. Below, I have included the link to the FaceBook group, but if you prefer not to use that site, I have a duplicate group on MeWe. And – if you prefer not to use that, I will provide a monthly email version of the newsletter. I want to make it as easy as possible for you to connect and learn about my books and my writing.
Available in the following formats: Mobi (Kindle), epub (Nook + other readers), PDF

Two writers in one. Daryl Devore writes hot romances with sexy heroes and strong heroines. Victoria Adams is Daryl’s alter ego when she’s inspired to write sweet romances with little to no heat.
Daryl lives in an old farmhouse in Ontario, Canada, with her husband, two black cats – Licorice and Ginny-Furr Purrkins – and some house ghosts. Her daughter is grown and has flown the nest. Daryl loves to take long walks on her quiet country road or snowshoe across the back acres, and in the summer, kayak along the St. Lawrence River. She has touched a moon rock, a mammoth, and a meteorite. She’s been deep in the ocean in a submarine, flown high over Niagara Falls in a helicopter, and used the ladies room in a royal palace. Life’s an adventure and Daryl’s having fun living it.

Read Waiting for the Son by Trevann Rogers @trevannrogers #RLFblog #WriteLGBTQ #UrbanFantasy
Chaos on the order of Genocide hangs in the balance in Trevann Roger’s new LGBTQ urban fantasy romance, Waiting for the Son.

Waiting for the Son by Trevann Rogers
Genre: LGBTQ Urban Fantasy Romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): RLiving After Midnight Series, Book 3
Cheyenne, the half-human son of the Monarch, is getting beaten up on the regular. He’s also fighting with his weretiger boyfriend, holding down his gig in the city’s premier nightclub, and taking care of his kids. Adulting is more complicated than he thought it would be.
Someone close to the Monarch is putting the supernatural races at risk. With everyone in his inner circle under suspicion, he asks his son for help unearthing the traitor.
Cheyenne declines. He doesn’t have the bandwidth, and politics is not his thing.
When his father’s troubles escalate, Cheyenne has no choice but to get involved. If he succeeds, the traitor will be exposed. If he fails, his father will die, and the backstabber will be free to lift the veil of secrecy that protects them all.
Waiting for the Son is the third book in the LGBTQ urban fantasy series Living After Midnight.
Warning: This book features quirky supernatural creatures, a luncheon that makes an orgy look like a made-for-TV movie and an incubus who makes you hope what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.

Jami, welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Happy to have you here! Please tell us about Collision Course.
Collision Course by Jami Gray
Genre Urban Fantasy
Book heat level (based on movie ratings) RWhen the Arcane Guild requests a last-minute delivery run from Transporter, Rory Costas, she figures earning some extra cash is better than spending her evening binging another DIY show or dodging the pesky Chipmunk Mafia. After handing off a unique engagement present to a happy, well-connected Arcane couple, she returns to what she believes is business as usual, only to encounter a series of unexplained hazards that have her jumping at shadows.
With her business picking up speed, the last thing she expected was to have a formidable member of the Arcane Council drag her into an informal investigation of a horrific accident. Now, with the sexy and intimidating Arbiter, Zev Aslanov, riding shotgun, she’ll have to wade through a mix-bag of money woes, broken hearts, and a legacy of cursed treasure to uncover the truth of what drove a romantic celebration to veer into tragedy.
In her race to expose the vindictive heart at the center of the Family drama, can Rory avoid the inevitable collision with one of the Arcane’s most notorious mages?

Is It True: Beating In Time by MJ Schiller @mjschiller #RLFblog #contemporaryromance
Rock star drummer Levi Cannon returns home after an eight-year absence to the girl he left behind in MJ Schiller’s contemporary romance, Beating In Time. After all these years, do their hearts still beat as one?
Welcome to Romance Lives Forever. I’m Kayelle Allen, author and owner of this blog. Let’s play Is It True with today’s guest, MJ Schiller. This is a game with yes and no questions. Writers can elaborate on answers as much as they choose.
Beating In Time by MJ Schiller
Genre contemporary romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): ROnce upon a time, their hearts beat as one…
Drummer Levi Cannon knows that all the platinum records in the world won’t fill the Remi-sized hole in his heart.
I left Last Chance Beach and Remington Lawson behind when I took my shot at fame and fortune, but I had no idea what I was sacrificing. Now that a fundraiser has brought me home, I want more than anything to win her back. But it’s been eight years. There may be a bridge that connects the island to the mainland, but am I a fool to think that I can build something that will span the chasm of all those years?
Remi Boyd knows that her love for her brother’s best friend has never died.
But what kind of fool would I be to trust him again after he broke my heart? I was a child when he left. Now I’m a woman who’s been a wife and I’m also a mother to the most precious girl in the world. I can’t drag her through some torrid affair, and that is clearly all Levi can offer me.
Music took him away. Music brought him back. But is it too late to recapture what they once had? Or can Last Chance Beach work its magic for them?
Is it true:
this is your first book?
No. It’s actually my 30th!
this book is part of a series?
Yes. Book One of a four-book series.
you lost sleep while writing this book?
Yes. That’s pretty much a given when I’m involved in a book!
you did research for this book?
Yes. A lot of research on music, cancer, Last Chance Beach, clothing, DUI law, automobile accidents, injuries, private security….
some characters in this book are not human? (pets for example)
No. There are no pets involved.
this book has more than one genre?
Yes. You could consider it contemporary romance, rock romance, or just plain romance.
you speak more than one language?
No. When speaking I even have trouble with English, but not with writing. J
you grew up where you live now?
No. While I’ve stayed in the Midwest, I no longer reside in St. Louis, Missouri.
you love to read?
I do, but I don’t get enough opportunities to do that at the moment.
you are never late?
At one point in my life I could say that. Then I had triplets.
you love pizza?
Yes. In all its forms.
you love sushi?
No. In any form.
you have a pet?
Unfortunately, no. Our cat passed last Christmas. But I do have a plethora of grand-puppies and kitties!
